The golden tripod blooms with pure golden light, which looks very mysterious and mysterious, and has an indescribable attraction to martial artists.

Xu Chen looked at it in amazement, when he got this Jin Ding in his previous life, he had studied it a lot, but at that time, the Jin Ding was always lifeless, without any abnormal movement, and it was the first time that it floated and glowed like today.

"The secret of the preaching hidden by Jinding is about to be revealed?"

He stared at Jin Ding motionlessly, the strange fate of the Tao is an opportunity that even the emperor longs for but can't get, the human emperor realm above the emperor is something that no one has ever experienced, it is a kind of legendary realm that can be immortalized and invincible.

The golden light of Jinding became thicker and thicker, and Xu Chen's eyes became brighter and brighter.

"Squeak!"

Suddenly, there was a sound of the door being pushed.

"Who!"

The moment Xu Chen suddenly raised his head, the golden light in the room disappeared instantly, and he hurriedly turned his head again, only to see the floating golden tripod converging all its brilliance.

"Huh!"

The golden tripod turned into a little gold, and it instantly drilled back into his mind.

"Interrupted......" Xu Chen frowned, although he was a little disappointed not to know what Jinding's secret was, but Jinding was hidden and not discovered by outsiders, which still made him feel a lot more relieved.

"Young Master. ”

Bai Lingxi's weak voice came.

Xu Chen saw that it was her, and the little dissatisfaction he had dissipated a lot, and he nodded lightly and said, "What's wrong Lingxi, the ninth prince is making trouble for you again?"

"No, it's the prince of Zhennan who held a pre-ascension banquet and notified you to go to the banquet. ”

"On the grounds that I was not feeling well, I pushed it. Xu Chen shook his head, it's just a meaningless banquet, how can the appearance of Jinding be important now.

"But the prince and the others are already prejudiced against you, if you push it, will it make them even more dissatisfied?" Bai Lingxi said worriedly.

Xu Chen smiled dumbly: "Don't worry, even if you are dissatisfied, you will wait until the end of the ladder to express it, not to mention that I am already weak and sick, it is reasonable not to go, no one can say anything." ”

Bai Lingxi could only agree, and then walked out of the room.

Seeing Bai Lingxi leave.

Xu Chen immediately closed his eyes and tried to make Jin Ding appear again, but no matter how hard he tried, Jin Ding did not appear this time.

......

After a while, there was another knock on the door.

Bai Lingxi eagerly entered the door: "Young master, young master can't help but go, I heard that the prince has news about your mother at this banquet." ”

"News from my mother. Xu Chen raised his head and stood up.

In my memory, my mother is the queen of the palace and the wife of the king of Zhennan, who is not only powerful, but also has a huge force behind it.

Because of his mother, no one dared to bully Xu Chen even if he was weak and sick since he was a child, and it wasn't until his mother went out alone five years ago, and after she left for five years, it was as if she was missing, Xu Chen's situation gradually became difficult.

First of all, Xu Chen's identity as the young master was personally removed by the king of Zhennan and transferred to Xu Tiance on the first day of the palace, and then the residence was moved to the backyard of the side house, and then the same things that originally belonged to him were stripped away, and finally he ushered in the ridicule and contempt of the entire palace, and the only person who was really good to him was Bai Lingxi by his side.

All because Xu Chen's mother disappeared.

"Let's go, let's go to the feast. ”

Xu Chen stretched out his hand, because his body was too weak, even if he walked, he needed someone to help him.

The sky outside the door was already dark, and the autumn wind in the evening was accompanied by some fallen leaves, which was a bit bleak and cold.

And leave the backyard side room, step into the central hall, a large area of brightly lit light comes into view, even if it is night, it is full of people, singing and laughing is not lively.

Compared with this place, Xu Chen's residence is extremely distinct.

"Hey, Xu Chen's sick seedling is here. ”

"A waste shelf is bigger than the prince, the prince has been drinking here for a long time, he only comes now, I don't know what to do. ”

"Be quiet, he is the only son of the queen, today the prince has news of the queen to say, maybe the queen is coming back, now don't be as hostile to him as before, let's see the situation first. ”

"Is there news of the queen? no wonder this waste has changed his previous weakness, and he dared to get angry with the ninth prince during the day, because he thought that the backer was coming back. ”

A pair of cold eyes glanced over, and the smiling faces of disdain were the same as usual, there was no respect here, only unwarranted disdain.

Bai Lingxi, who was supporting Xu Chen, lowered his head a little timidly under so many cold gazes, and his steps couldn't help but become smaller and slower a lot.

Xu Chen patted her hand and smiled softly at her when she looked up: "It's okay, get behind me, I'll take you away." ”

He walked in front of Bai Lingxi with one step, changing the previous appearance of Bai Lingxi supporting him, and becoming him holding Bai Lingxi.

Ignoring the gazes of the people around him, Xu Chen raised his head and looked directly at the King of Zhennan in front of him, and then led Bai Lingxi slowly to the side of the main hall and sat down quietly.

From beginning to end, King Zhennan, who was directly in front, did not look up at him.

It wasn't until he sat down that King Zhennan took a sip of wine and said lightly: "After talking about climbing the ladder just now, now I will say one more thing, the original queen has been missing for many years, and now the news of her death is back, so when the matter of climbing the ladder is over, I will set up a new queen." ”

"Death was reported. ”

The room full of people suddenly whispered, the queen had been missing for many years and it turned out to be dead, but it was good to save the queen's position and make others feel awkward.

"The queen is dead!" Bai Lingxi's face turned pale, and he looked at Xu Chen nervously: "Young master......"

Xu Chen took a deep breath, patted Bai Lingxi's hand again comfortingly, looked up at King Zhennan, and said loudly: "Lord Wang, please tell me the cause of my mother's death." ”

King Zhennan is his father, but he is called Wangye, not Father.

Perhaps because of this unfamiliar title, the king of Zhennan finally turned his head to look at Xu Chen, his sharp eyes were like knives, and people did not dare to look at him, and the majesty of a prince made the whole room quiet down with a slight movement.

"You're her only son, and you should tell you. ”

In the silence, King Zhennan spoke slowly: "Your mother was my beloved wife, but she left without saying goodbye five years ago and went to the ancient burial site alone, in order to find a cure for your stubborn physical illness. ”

"She died for me...... Xu Chen clenched his fists, it turned out that the reason for the disappearance of his 'own' mother was to save himself, even as a reborn outsider, it was still difficult to stand by and watch this kind of thing related to family affection.

He was silent for a moment and spoke again: "Please leave her relics to me for safekeeping." ”

In any case, her current identity is her son, her closest relative before her death, and the responsibility of taking care of the relics after death cannot be ignored.

King Zhennan's expression suddenly became cold: "She is my beloved wife, and I can keep the relics, so you can go back." ”

"Huh?" Xu Chen raised his eyebrows, and there was a little more suspicion in his eyes, this King of Zhennan can be indifferent to his own son for so long, no matter how you look at it, he is not an emotional person.

If you really value feelings, why don't you treat yourself, the queen's own son, well, and keep a copy of the queen's relics?

That can only be said that the queen's relics have made King Zhennan tempted!

"Dare to ask the prince, what is my mother's relic, as her son, I should always know this. Xu Chen looked directly at King Zhennan, and his eyes narrowed unconsciously.

"Let's talk about it again. King Zhennan's expression changed subtly, and there was more disgust in his eyes when he looked at Xu Chen, he didn't answer the question, but got up and waved his hand, walked towards the outside of the hall and said, "That's the end of today's banquet, everything will be said after the end of the ladder." ”

"It's a bad thing!"

The thought welled up in the hearts of the audience.

Xu Chen's face suddenly turned indifferent, and after watching the figure of King Zhennan leave, he took Bai Lingxi's hand and said in a deep voice, "Let's go." ”

The two of them left the brightly lit hall, and their figures gradually disappeared into the lonely darkness, and there was a night breeze outside, which was colder than when they came.

In the main hall, the people who were still brightly lit all looked at the direction of Xu Chen's departure, a few people showed a trace of pity, and more people gloated and laughed: "This waste is completely finished." ”

"It's really completely over, his mother's death has cut off the possibility of him turning over, the important thing is that he just didn't know whether to live or die and violated the prince's taboo, and the prince's attitude towards him is obviously worse, and he may just cut off the relationship with him directly after waiting for the ladder to the sky. ”

"Yes, the prince in the palace is the sky, whoever the prince doesn't like will be unlucky, after this kid climbs the ladder, there may be a tragedy on the street. ”

"Maybe he will successfully awaken as a martial artist on the ladder of climbing the sky this time, once he awakens, and has good talents, everything he has lost can be returned, after all, the prince values geniuses the most......"

"How can he awaken when he is eighteen years old? And even if he awakens, his body, which will die of illness at any time, can only awaken the same garbage physique, do you expect Xu Chen to become a genius? What are you kidding! I can't see that the prince doesn't even tell him what his mother's relics are, this is obviously the meaning of completely giving up his son!"

Bursts of unbridled ridicule came from far and wide from the main hall.

Everyone understands very well in their hearts that the fundamental reason why King Zhennan has such a bad attitude towards Xu Chen and has no father-son friendship at all is because Xu Chen has been a waste since he was a child, and he does not give people the slightest hope and possibility of becoming a genius.

......

Back in the room, Xu Chen looked at the night outside the window, his face was expressionless, he had seen a lot of the warmth and warmth of the people, but what he saw and heard in this palace still made him feel unfair.

It's okay for the relatives and friends around to reject 'themselves', and it's okay for my biological father to be so indifferent, but it's too much to even be reluctant to hand over the relics of 'my own' mother, or even to tell me what relics are.

"As the king of Zhennan said, let's wait until the ladder is over. ”

Xu Chen glanced up at Mingyue and spoke softly.

Time flies.

Three days later.

As the sun rose, the heavens and the earth suddenly trembled, and the sky of the entire South China Sea appeared with colorful light, like a mirage, descending from the end of the sky to the next colorful staircase, the stairs appeared layer by layer, obliquely straight into the Zhennan Wangcheng in the center of the South China Sea.

"It's time to climb the ladder. ”

Xu Chen raised his head, with a hint of a smile, and got up and went out.

He still clearly remembers that in his previous life, he was on the ladder to the sky, and after he was born with the Divine Rank Blue Lotus God King Body, it caused shocking turmoil!
