Chapter 106: The Only Survivor

Xiao Liu was not the first to return to the place of concentration, and there were already about six subordinates of other forces or princes who had returned early before him. It's just that on the prince's side, he is the only one who has come back so far.

There is less than half a day to go before the end of this hunting festival, and when the time comes, everyone's results will begin to be settled immediately.

In this way, time passed quietly in the waiting, and when another three hours had passed, the people who had returned in the dense forest had arrived.

Ten days have passed, and I am afraid that many people have died in the wilderness of Beidaze, and this is clear from the fact that the number of people who have returned from the current time is less than thirty.

Among the various forces, some people have returned here one after another with their trophies, but on the prince's side, Xiao Liu is still the only one standing there alone.

"What's going on? It's less than two hours left, why haven't those guys come back yet?"

The ghost hand on the side muttered quietly.

There are a total of five people on the prince's side who participated in the hunting sacrifice, except for Bian Wolf, who was killed by Xiao Liu's own hands, there should be three people left, normally speaking, since they can be sent out by the prince to participate in this important sacrificial activity, they naturally have the corresponding strength.

However, until now, none of those three people have appeared.

Although the prince still had a smile on his face, Xiao Liu on the side could already see a certain restless emotion flickering in his eyes, it seemed that the prince should have thought of something, otherwise he would not have this kind of expression.

Finally, the deadline for this hunting festival has arrived, the time is noon, the scorching sun is in the sky, after the baptism of the heavy rain the day before, the air is filled with the fragrance of moist grass and trees.

However, on the prince's side, only Xiaoliu returned safely.

"Yo, big brother. I didn't expect you to be so unlucky this time. Is this kid the only one who came back alive? As a younger brother, I really feel sorry for your eyes. Do you want me to let my subordinates report a little less of the results of the battle, so that I can save some face for you?"

Just after the deadline arrived, a clear but mocking laugh rang out behind Prince Xiaoliu and them.

Xiao Liu didn't have to look back to guess that the one who was talking cool here could only be the three princes Donghuangjun!

Hearing this, the prince turned his body unhurriedly, the smile on his face was very kind, and he couldn't see the breath of * for half a minute

"The third brother is so generous, then the brother will receive your heart, but I don't know if these subordinates of yours will agree. ”

The third prince didn't expect the prince to be so thick-skinned, he said that he let his subordinates underreport the results of the battle, but he was just deliberately angry with the prince, but the prince climbed directly down the pole and took it.

In this way, the bunch of mocking words that he had prepared behind him could not continue.

After all, the hunting festival is a prosperous dynasty once every few years, if the results are good, the father will naturally look up to him, and his third prince is not an idiot, how can he let go of the victory in his hand, but turn around and cheapen his opponent?

"Hmph, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you, when the grades will be calculated, you will look good!"

The third prince flicked his sleeves, and looked unwilling to talk to the prince and others, and led the four subordinates around him to turn around and leave.

"Prince, it seems that a few of them didn't come back this time, it is likely that the third prince made a ghost, I didn't expect him to be so bold, the hunting festival is the prosperity of the empire, he even dares to mess around?......!

The ghost hand had a cold light in his eyes on the side, and whispered indignantly in the prince's ear.

But before she could finish speaking, the prince stretched out a hand and interrupted the ghost hand's words

"How could I not see something so obvious? But now is not the best time. I have been fighting with him in private for so many years, and my father has only turned a blind eye. But if we really kill the third child, my father will definitely not be with the mud again. So, we can't act rashly yet!"

The prince's tone was very affirmative, and after hearing this, the ghost hand immediately understood what the prince meant.

They can't move now, and if they do, they have to do something they don't know!

At the very least, it is necessary to make it impossible for His Majesty Donghuang Puyi to grasp the handle!

Or ....... Directly solve the three princes and the biggest obstacles, Donghuangpu at once!

Naturally, it is impossible for the ghost hand to say this idea, she is just one of the loyal subordinates who obeys the orders of the prince, and everything needs to be decided by the prince.

Xiao Liu on the side quietly watched the development of the situation and did not say a word, but he had already guessed the beginning and end of the matter.

When he was hunting, he met Donghuang Xue, and then the two were assassinated by Murong Ning, but fortunately, neither of them had an accident.

Now it seems that the person who encountered the assassination was probably not only himself, but the five people on the prince's side were probably assassinated by the three princes' capable men!

Because Bian Wolf met Miao Lanlan, he deviated far from the scope of normal hunting, and finally died in the hands of Xiao Liu.

The remaining three people, it seems, eighty percent have already been killed!

In this way, it can almost be concluded that among the two groups of people who assassinated Xiao Liu, Murong Ning's group was sent by the third prince!

However, there are still two huge problems left in Xiao Liu's heart, lingering.

The first is, who sent the three men in black in the second wave? Who is going to kill himself?

The second question was Murong Ning's words before he died.

Xiao Liu clearly remembered that he had a mocking look on his face before he died, saying that His Majesty was .....

It's a pity that Murong Ning died too quickly, he only started at the beginning, and there was no follow-up in the future, so Xiao Liu kept thinking about what secrets Murong Ning said before he died.

As Xiao Liu lowered his head and thought, in the direction of the high platform in the open space, three old men in court clothes stood in the center, and the old man in the center with a gray beard but a red face spoke loudly

"Your Majesty, he left early because he had something important to do. Before leaving, His Majesty entrusted the work of this review to the old man. Therefore, the old man will be the chief judge of this hunting festival to judge the results of the participants. ”

"The two around the old man, everyone must have seen them. They are Brother Wang and Brother Lu of the Ministry of Law. The old man specially asked them to help preside over the review together. I believe that with the character of the three of us, you will not suspect that someone will cheat, right?!"

The old man in the center, Lang Lang, spoke, and most of the people below gathered, and when they heard him say this, the group of courtiers laughed and said, "Don't dare, don't dare"

The old man in the center is famous in the Eastern Pole Imperial Kingdom for his iron-faced selflessness, and he is the one who is in charge of the laws of his country, and his surname is Huang Dazhong!

Just by looking at the name, you know that he is an upright character.

It was precisely because this person had always been fair that Donghuang Puyi was relieved to hand over the review of the hunting festival to him.

The people below, seeing that it was Huang Dazhong presiding over the review, were naturally all relieved, and they were not worried about others going through the back door at all.

Huang Dazhong stood at the top of the center, and saw that everyone below had a 100% reassuring expression on their faces, and couldn't help but smile, he was honest all his life, and all he did was to be able to see this expression on the faces of others.

"In that case, then we won't have to delay any longer. Brave men who will come first, all the warriors who have returned safely?"

When they set out, more than 60 people participated in the hunt, but when they returned, there were less than 30 people left, to be precise, only 26 people returned safely!

The mortality rate is as high as 60%!

Aside from the three princes who were secretly killed by the people of the three princes, the mortality rate of this hunting festival is still high and scary!

If not, how could the winner have such a high honor?

You must know that the person who ranks first in the score will be personally rewarded by His Majesty the Eastern Pole Imperial Kingdom!

At this time, the twenty-six people who came back alive below became the protagonists here, including Xiao Liu, who were pushed by everyone near the center of the clearing, while the others wrapped them around the periphery to watch.

All of these twenty-six people were the best of those who had survived the ten days of jungle hunting, and each of them was undoubtedly an experienced master.

Most of the time, strength and self-confidence are directly proportional, so this group of guys who licked blood from the knife edge, after listening to Huang Dazhong's words, immediately a few people shouted "I'll come first!" and rushed to the stage.

"Very good, you guys, don't worry, the results are not wrong anyway, whoever comes first is the same. Come on, bring me your demon core. ”

Huang Dazhong seemed to appreciate these hot-blooded men very much, and he smiled and said to the first big man who rushed forward.

This big man should be from the camp of a certain powerful minister, not from the side of the three princes.

He was naked, with a leather strap tied to his back a thick mace that was nearly a person tall, and there were still traces of demon beast blood on it, and he looked like a cultivator who had taken a fierce path.

Dahan grinned when he heard this, and with a flick of his hand, he stuffed a bag into Huang Dazhong's hand, and at the same time said with an urn in his mouth

"My lord, it's all here, so see for yourself. ”

It seems that this guy also specially prepared an empty bag for storing trophies.

Huang Dazhong smiled, shook the bag in front of everyone, and then flipped the mouth of the bag and poured everything inside directly under his feet.

The sound of "clang" sounded one after another, everyone's eyes were focused on the bottom, one after another demon cores appeared, and the results of the big man were clear at a glance.
