Chapter XVII
Pompeii City today is the day of the biggest complaint since the founding of the city, and even the complaint when the theory exam of the magician level exam three years ago was suddenly not allowed to cheat is not as loud as today, the reason is very simple, the last duel of the three duels originally scheduled for His Excellency the White Emperor has been canceled! The challenger suddenly didn't know where he had gone. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe resentment of the audience who came from thousands of miles to watch the duel between Emperor Wang Bai and people If it is exchanged for magic, this magic can definitely destroy the entire Pompeii City in an instant.
While everyone complained about the escape of Emperor Wang's opponents, there were a few exceptions.
"Grandpa Foye...... You mean...... Ye Chenhao, they are all dead?" In the luxurious private room of the elven wind, Shi Yitang sat on the chair in despair, with a blank face. In front of her stood a very burly old man. If Ye Hanshuang and the others were present, they would recognize that this old man was the old man who fought against Ji Lingxia in the Chaos Lord's Desire Market back then.
Foye looked at Shi Yitang with pity on his face and nodded slightly. Shi Yitang's eyes were blank, and Foye didn't know what she was thinking. All of this was because of a piece of news brought back by Foye, the palace of the Jiangnan Empire in the Western Regions was attacked by the demons, from the emperor to the concubines, as well as the six princes and six princesses were all killed in the attack. Only the eldest princess, the second princess, the fifth prince and the seventh princess, Shi Yitang, who married away, are left. That's right, Shi Yitang is the seventh princess of the Jiangnan Empire in the Western Regions.
The reason why Shi Yitang is surnamed Shi instead of the royal surname Ye is because of his mother. Her mother is the daughter of a poet of the second family in Jiangnan in the Western Regions. Ye Binxuan, who was married to the prince at the beginning, was a purely political marriage. Shi Yitang's mother had something else in her heart, but due to family reasons, she had to marry Ye Binxuan, the prince who was most likely to become the crown prince at that time!
Due to emotional discord and other reasons, Shi Yitang's mother has always been in poor health, and when she gave birth to Shi Yitang, she fell into a serious illness, and she died of illness when she was young. Although no one dared to bully her because of the strength of the family, it was impossible for a little girl in the court to say how good her life was without her mother. And it has always been rumored in the palace that Shi Yitang is not the blood of the emperor, but the widow of her mother's old lover! Although this is completely nonsense, but the three of them became tigers, and Shi Yitang was a little withdrawn because of the loss of his mother when he was young, and he was not liked by the emperor and his brothers and sisters. Gradually, the relationship with the royal family became more and more indifferent.
As the second family of the empire, the poet's status in the southern part of the Western Regions is also quite transcendent. Therefore, even if a daughter marries, most of the children born are also with the mother's surname. However, if the other party is a royal family, generally no one will mention this article. Shi Yitang was also surnamed Ye when he was a child. But when she was nine years old, she insisted on changing her mother's surname to poetry.
Although Shi Yitang's situation in the royal family is worrying, the poet cares for her a lot, for no other reason, Shi Yitang's talent is too good! The royal family is of ice blood, and most of the descendants are ice element cultivators, and most of their talents are good. Most of the princes and princesses of this generation have middle and senior titles. The second prince is in his early twenties, and he has the strength of a heavenly fighter. But Shi Yitang has no talent for ice at all. This is also a corroboration of the spread of the saying that she is not the blood of the emperor.
Shi Yitang is a dark talent, and the poet is a bloodline talent with dual attributes of flame and darkness, which is very rare. Although Shi Yitang has not yet shown the talent of the flame system, her dark attribute talent has surpassed all her peers in the family. And others don't know, but the heart family knows that Shi Yitang has a guardian!
This guardian is Foye, who was originally the guardian of Shi Yitang's mother, and guarded her mother when she was a child. After her mother died of illness, she became the guardian of Shi Yitang. Almost inseparable, even if it is inconvenient to follow around, it will be protected in the dark. Few people know Foye's true identity, nor do they know the reason for protecting Shi Yitang and her mother. Even Shi Yitang didn't know, but since she could remember, he appeared, and then silently guarded her mother's side, and guarded her mother after her mother's absence, Shi Yitang has always regarded him as a grandfather, a relative, far closer than the so-called brother and father.
Shi Yitang had a very withdrawn personality when he was a child, and his temperament was even more strange because of his cultivation of dark magic. Dark lineage magic has always been controversial in Aegean, largely because there are many proofs that this magic affects the temperament of cultivators. Today's Shi Yitang has no influence in this regard, and I have to say that a large part of it is the result of Foye's meticulous care and love.
During this trip, Foye seemed to have other things to do, so Shi Yitang was able to trick the palace guards into going out alone with the help of Lin Yuxin, Jiang Jieqian and others. Unexpectedly, Foye still found himself easily and brought such amazing news.
Although Shi Yitang's relationship with the royal family has always been bad, especially with several brothers, Shi Yitang still felt uncomfortable in his heart when he suddenly heard the news of the death of a blood-related person.
After a long time, Shi Yitang reluctantly said: "What's going on...... How could it suddenly ......?"
"I don't know very well......" Foye shook his head slightly: "When I got the news and rushed to Lingxiao City, everything was already over. According to the Fifth Highness and General Hua, who was in charge of the city's defense that day, a powerful demon silver pupil suddenly appeared in the Forbidden Palace. At that time, His Majesty the Emperor was seriously ill, and all the princes and princesses were visiting, but they were all wiped out by the demon silver pupil, and even Ling Chenyue, the Taifu who had been diagnosed and treated by His Majesty, died. ”
"Ling Chenyue is also there, and he was killed by the demon clan?" Shi Yitang was slightly stunned: "Isn't Ling Chenyue a great demon master?"
"That demon clan is very powerful, according to General Hua Zhenchang, even the Wild Lion Legion paid a very big price to kill him. I've seen the corpses of demons. is an eight-winged silver pupil, even in the demon world, it should be a very top master. Comparable to the Aegean Holy Order powerhouse. And most of the silver pupils are demonic and martial dual cultivators. What he is good at is the arcane magic of the demon race that we are not familiar with, and it is not uncommon for Ling Chenyue and the second prince, who are not as strong as themselves, to be killed. Foyer calmly analyzed. Although he is a native of Jiangnan in the Western Regions, he has no loyalty to the royal family. All he cared about was Shi Yitang, so his tone was very flat when he mentioned the deaths of other royal families.
"Grandpa Fuye, what do you mean is that everything is normal?" Shi Yitang didn't know much about the demons. However, a demon clan broke into the Jiangnan Imperial Palace in the Western Regions, one of the three major empires, and assassinated the emperor and all the royal family, no matter how you think about it, it doesn't feel reasonable.
"I can't say it's normal, I can only say that it makes sense!" Fu Ye replied calmly: "But there are also a few doubts in it, Ling Chenyue is the great demon master of the water system, and he must have the scroll of the well teleportation array on his body, and he couldn't escape, this is a doubt! I asked the imperial doctor who examined the emperor's body, and the emperor did not die from a direct attack, but a continuous magic method." I don't know much about magic, but in terms of elemental fluctuations, it's very close to that silver pupil, but why does that silver pupil have to do so much? Wouldn't it be more convenient to kill it directly? This is the second doubt. Also, Lingxiao City is more than 1,000 meters above sea level, and the city defense is perfect. The palace has magic monitoring equipment all year round, how did that demon clan break through to the palace? Even all the way into the emperor's dormitory was not stopped? The palace guards plus all kinds of defensive magic equipment in the palace, a holy rank is logically impossible to break into no matter what, not to mention that all the way to the emperor's dormitory, the royal family has not been able to escape, this is the third doubt! Finally......" Foye pondered for a moment: "It is strange that the demon clan was killed. Since he has the ability to enter the Forbidden Palace, it is said that the Wild Lion Legion should not be able to stop him. A saint rank has to run with one mind, unless several opponents of the same level or similar can stop it. And the strongest of the Wild Lion Legion is General Hua Zhenchang and several of his lieutenants, all of whom are only the primary strength of the Heavenly Warriors, and if they want to stop and kill that demon clan, in my opinion, the possibility should be very small......"
Shi Yitang nodded and was silent. Foyer also fell silent. After a while, seeing that Shi Yitang still didn't mean to speak, he couldn't help but ask: "Tang Tang, His Royal Highness is about to ascend the throne, do you want to go back to watch the ceremony......?"
"Forget it, I don't think Ye Chenhan wants to see me very much. Shi Yitang pursed his lips disdainfully: "Ji Lingxia and Luo Duyu rushed back in a hurry, and even gave up the duel with Emperor Wang Bai, presumably for this matter, right?"
"It should be!" Foye nodded: "The new emperor must be in charge of completing the ceremony by the Xin family when he ascends the throne in order to obtain the dominance of the Nine Dragon Seals. And such a ceremony, Ji Lingxia, as the supreme elder of the family, naturally had to be present. And the ceremony of the new emperor's enthronement must also be attended by Luo Duyu as a person. In contrast, the matter of duels is less important. It provoked a lot of people to run away in vain. Speaking of which, Foye looked at Shi Yitang, who was also one of the people who ran for nothing.
Fuye's eyes Shi Yitang naturally understood, but she smiled lightly and said, "Well, although I didn't see Luo Duyu duel with that King White Emperor, it may not have been a trip in vain." The more outstanding ones of our year, or rather, those who may have performed well in the mainland elite exchange meeting, and those who are about the same age, seem to have all gathered at the St. Francis Academy of Sciences, and I can also take this opportunity to find out what they are all about!"
"They, Tangtang, what do you mean?" said Foye, who was a little surprised by Shi Yitang's words.
"Well, they're two girls. One surnamed Su and the other surnamed Chang, both of them are from the Shancheng Kingdom, and their strength is amazing!" Shi Yitang nodded. She naturally said Chang Xiaolu and Su Zixi. Chang Xiaolu's strength was deeply realized in the swamp Shi Yitang at the beginning, although Lin Yuxin and Murong Ziyan also performed brilliantly, they were completely compared to Chang Xiaolu. As for Su Zixi, Shi Yitang also got a crystal ball image of Su Zixi's challenge that day. Su Zixi's strength also made her jealous.
"Lian Tangtang, do you think your strength is amazing, I'm afraid it's really amazing!" Fuye nodded solemnly. Shi Yitang is outstanding, and very proud, if even she is jealous, it is definitely the top among her peers.
"Moreover, there is that guy ......" Shi Yitang thought of the end of Su Zixi's crystal ball image, and Night Frost used a strange thunder attribute to break through the spirit jade's Jiao's anger, which looked to be very strong. I remembered the kiss in the swamp again, and my face turned red unconsciously.
Seeing Shi Yitang's little daughter's expression, Fuye was slightly stunned, and then smiled. I don't know what's going on, but it should be a good thing. Although the Jiangnan Royal Tribulation in the Western Regions is full of suspicions, he doesn't care, as long as Shi Yitang is happy, nothing else matters.
It's not just Foye who feels that the royal family incident in the Western Regions is suspicious, but these people don't care as much as Foye.
"My lord, uncle, father, uncle, I think there is something strange at this time!" In the room of Ji Lingxia, the Jiangnan Empire in the Western Regions, in the heart of Lingxiao City, Ji Shengyuan frowned and said. Fang included the members of the heart family, including the patriarch, and almost all the important members were there, all of them frowning slightly.
Ji Shengyuan saw Ji Lingxia looking over and said: "According to several uncles, the Wild Lion Legion also implemented a curfew in advance before besieging the palace that day, if it is really as they said that the palace was attacked, they still have the strength to manage the curfew? There are also doubts raised by several brothers before, I think there is a big problem!"
"Tell me what you think!" asked a family elder with a smile.
"I think...... Fifth Highness has a problem!" Ji Lingxia looked at the encouraging eyes of the elders, gritted his teeth and said this sentence in his heart. Originally, he thought it would cause an uproar, but the room was surprisingly calm, and everyone didn't even react.
"Your Highness Five, what if there is a problem?" In the center of the house, sitting on the main seat was a man with white hair like snow, but he still looked young. The room was obviously the highest in his status, and even Ji Lingxia was just sitting under him. He is the head of the heart family, Zijing Zen.
The Fifth Highness has a problem, so what? The patriarch's words made Ji Shengyuan slightly stunned, and he didn't know what to say for a while. Yes, what if the Fifth Highness has a problem?
