A gentle breeze blows in through the windows, making the environment of the inner sanctum more comfortable.

The Holy King was always taking a nap, and it seemed that he had long been accustomed to seeing the old duke's expression, and his attitude towards the Holy King was also a little strange, respectful but disrespectful.

The sound of footsteps came, and an old man walked into the inner hall, his expression was serious, his hooked nose matched with that sharp gaze, and at a glance, he knew that this was a person who did not smile.

Compared with the old duke, this old man is more like an imperial duke in terms of dress and breath, serious, unsmiling, old-fashioned but impartial.

The old man stopped in front of the chair engraved with the forest pattern, he did not sit down, but looked at Su Xiao for a moment before sitting down.

"Huh? Isn't this Duke Lilin, who let you out...... Ah no, I'm really old and confused, how can I say such rude words. ”

The old duke seemed to have just discovered the presence of Duke Lilin, and at the same time he was surprised, and at the same time, he was still coiling his wife.

"Wild dogs."

Li Lin's voice was not high, but it was enough for the old duke to hear.

"Little ghost, talking to 'father' like this is going to be punished by God, it's a pity, your mother Fu Lina is no longer alive, otherwise it ......"

The old duke's words are hugely informative, this old thing has lived for I don't know how many years, God knows if it has a leg with Duke Lilin's mother.

A green tendon burst out on Duke Lilin's forehead, and then, he didn't speak, which made the amount of information even greater.

On this occasion, silence almost means acquiescence, and the old duke, nine times out of ten, really has some scandals with Duke Lilin's biological mother, after all, the aristocratic circle of the empire is very chaotic.

"The ages of the two of you combined, you are at least in your early 1,000s, and there is no shame in it."

A beautiful woman came in with a languid and luxurious temperament that completely made up for the disadvantage of her age, and she looked to be in her early thirties at most.

When Duke Eve of the Moon Wolf arrived, she was smiling when she looked at anyone, although she didn't wear any jewelry, she still showed dignity, and her temperament was something that could not be compensated for by external objects.

For some reason, almost everyone calls Duke Eve of the Moon Wolf Lady Lady of the Moon Wolf instead of calling the Duke directly, there should be something hidden in it.

Li Lin and Lady Moon Wolf were present, but the rest of the Duke of the Angry Lion, Gilbert, had not arrived for a long time, and waited until nine o'clock in the morning.

It's true that Gilbert is a duke, but he can't let the Holy King and the three dukes wait more than an hour.

"Something happened to the Angry Lion."

Duke Li Lin spoke in a deep voice, and the Moon Wolf Lady on the side was obviously a little anxious, with her identity and experience, there were few things that could make her like this.

"The Raging Lion is never late, am I right?"

Li Lin turned his gaze to look at the old duke.

"This time...... It's true that I didn't do it. ”

God knows why the old duke directly denied it, perhaps, this is a bad thing to do too much, once something happens, the other dukes immediately think that this is what the old duke did.

"You won't be ......"

The smile on Lady Moon Wolf's face gradually retracted, her appearance beautiful, but deadly.

The old duke was speechless for a while, the Duke of Angry Lion has not come yet, something must have happened, and he is 'lucky' to be the biggest suspect.

At the behest of Lady Moonwolf, one of her attendants left the Holy See quickly, and within five minutes at most, Lady Moonwolf learned through intelligence channels that Duke Gilbert of the Raging Lion had been killed and died in a winery outside the city.

The duke is not comparable to the officials of the empire, each duke has huge power in his hands, more than 60% of the military power of the empire is in the hands of the Duke of the Angry Lion, and now that the empire is at war with the Northern Alliance, the death of the Duke of the Angry Lion is almost equal to the small half of the empire falling down.

Upon hearing this, Duke Li Lin proposed that the old duke be detained in the Holy Court.

"Fart! What evidence do you have? ”

The old duke's face was trembling, in fact, he knew in his heart that neither Li Lin nor Lady Moon Wolf suspected him that the Sierra Empire was the foundation of the saints, and destroying the power system of the empire, especially in terms of military power, was almost tantamount to self-destruction.

"Suspicion of you, no evidence is needed."

Lady Moonwolf's words can be described as heart-wrenching, but she must do it now, Duke Gilbert of the Angry Lion died inexplicably, if the old duke takes the opportunity to make a fuss, then they will be anxious.

"That's your decision?"

"That's right."

"Only if you stay here can we deal with the death of the Raging Lion."

"Well, I'll stay here, and I'll stay in the Holy Court until the cause of the angry lion's death is known."

The old duke's words made Li Lin and Lady Moon Wolf a little surprised, and they almost thought at the same time, could it really be this old guy who did it?

"But before that, I have something to declare, I used to devour gods, but after that, the curse of immortality keeps me in pain......"

"You'd better get straight to the point."

Mrs. Moon Wolf can't stand it, and the old duke is living in pain? No kidding, this old guy lives more nourishing than anyone else, his wife has married a bunch of them, and he has two with him.

"I am ready to lay down my power for the time being, and hand it over to my nephew, Kukulin White Night, who is now the Duke."

"Nephew? You are crazy? ”

Li Lin looked at the old duke with no expression on his face.

"Since the two of you agree, no, it doesn't matter if you don't agree, I'm just announcing this matter today, it doesn't matter if you agree or not."

The old duke stood up, and his whole person seemed to be much more relaxed, and he looked like he was going to take a walk in the garden behind the Holy See.

Li Lin and Lady Moon Wolf both looked at Su Xiao, because from beginning to end, Su Xiao was silent.

"Both, do you have any prejudice against me, a normal human?"

Su Xiao chewed on the soul crystal fragments in his mouth, and at the beginning of each world, he would eat some soul crystal fragments as if he were eating jelly beans, so as to increase the strength of his soul.

"Humanity will not be descendants of the Saints......"

Halfway through Duke Lilin's words, he found Su Xiao looking at him with a smile.

After a while, Duke Li Lin's expression returned to normal, and he didn't need to negotiate with Su Xiao at all to judge how difficult Su Xiao was to deal with.

"Duke of the White Night, it's incredible that you can make that old guy back down, well, I admit it, you're the acting duke."

Lady Moon Wolf chuckled, not surprised by the death of the Duke of the Angry Lion, and the old duke's relinquishment of power, she had experienced too many major events in her life, and she was able to live until now because of her ruthless heart like a femme fatale.

Su Xiao leaned back in his seat, he was able to have his current status at this speed, firstly because of his cooperation with the old duke, and secondly because he was strong enough.

The strong strength has brought a lot of convenience, if it wasn't for Su Xiao's strength to kill the old duke last night, the old duke would not compromise at all.

As long as the old duke dared to say a word last night, then today everyone would not come to the Holy Court to hold an imperial meeting, but to hold a memorial service in his manor.

Of course, there is also a very important point in this, that is, the death of the Duke of Fury Lion this morning, if the old duke does not know the hidden secret, Su Xiao will definitely not believe it.

That old guy is not only a compromise with Su Xiao, but also to hide himself, an old fox.

After initial contact, Su Xiao already had a general understanding of the three dukes, the old duke was a-stirring stick, and the things he was planning were so big that he needed to be hostile to all the dukes in order to hide his purpose.

Duke Lilin is an upright person, he is not the first generation of saints, or rather, he did not choose, he was born a saint, and he also inherited the position of duke.

If the Serra Empire had not been for the Duke of Lilin, it might have been broken through by the Northern Alliance.

As for Lady Moon Wolf, she is an extremely selfish type, and as long as she doesn't threaten herself, she won't take any chances.

"Since you are the old fellow's agent, come with you, the saints are only mortals."

Duke Li Lin left these words, got up and walked to the verandah, and Lady Moon Wolf thought for a moment and chose to follow.

"Old fox."

Su Xiao looked at the old duke who was enjoying the scenery at the window.

"Don't be so rude, you're a duke now."

The old duke was obviously in a good mood.

"You should be the first to die, just last night, you will die before the angry lion, and Li Lin will not send someone to kill you."

As soon as Su Xiao's words fell, a prompt from the Reincarnation Paradise suddenly appeared.

[Hunter has triggered Hidden Mission: ??? 】

[Because the hunter chooses to perform the main quest in a high-risk way, this hidden quest is a reward quest.] 】

Su Xiao closed the prompt, and now it seems that the way his main quest was opened was completely correct, although it was high-risk, it was also high-reward.

If he guessed correctly, something was secretly being conceived, and the timing of the reincarnation paradise teleporting him was in line with that event, and it would not be a coincidence.

Su Xiao could choose not to participate in that incident, that is, to complete the main task through normal channels, and now, he chose to participate in a certain event, without a strong strength as a basis, he may not survive a day if he participates in this unknown event.

"Li Lin won't send someone to kill me? Perhaps, he was too upright. ”

The old duke always turned his back to Su Xiao, while the Holy Descent King was dozing off all the time and didn't care about anything, including the death of the Duke of Fury.
