Chapter 281: The Third Grand Duke
At this moment, the Emperor should be receiving Princess Avril. Others came to celebrate the prince's enthronement ceremony, and Sun Wufan, the prince, should go together, but he stayed in the prince's mansion.
"Hey, it's just your fiancΓ©e, don't you dare to go?"
Sun Wufan was naturally teased by the three.
But this time, he didn't bother to argue with them, just glanced at them coldly: "Am I going to be pestered by her?"
The three of them glanced at each other, Long Aotian and Wang Xuxie obviously wanted to make fun of each other again, but Liu Shuxian took the first step: "That's what she said, just the character she heard, she should not look back until she dies once she decides about something." Unless she disappeared or was killed, it was impossible to dispel her thoughts. β
"Isn't it okay anyway? even if she ignores her, she will live as before until she dies, right?" Long Aotian couldn't help but analyze.
"It's none of my business, I don't even know there's such a thing! Besides, now that no one forces her, she can't control herself, who is to blame?"
Hearing this, Long Aotian nodded, but quickly shook his head again: "No, haven't you heard of rumors before? Even if you say that you control your own life, you can't control it, right?"
"yes, it's hard to do this kind of thing even if you tell others not to care, and it's not her fault. β
"That's right, it's useless to do anything now, unless you really marry her, even if there is no gossip, she won't be happy in her own heart!"
Wang Zhuxie and Liu Shuxian also analyzed on the side, but no matter how they looked at it, they were persuading Sun Wufan to forget it.
"Hmph, I'm not a shelter here, so what if I forcibly take her in, it's a good thing?"
Forehead...... That's right, too.
The three of them were immediately speechless.
"But......" Long Aotian looked at Sun Wufan suspiciously: "You are not a saint and gentleman, are you?
"Am I going to accept it if it's pretty? It's not that I'm boasting, I'm not interested in the third dimension at all!"
"This is indeed not a boast!!" Long Aotian complained at the first time, and then spit out again: "By the way, aren't the harems you received all three-dimensional!? Whether it's the Saint Seiya or the Demon Tail, the image is a three-dimensional image! Although they were two-dimensional images in our original universe, how can they also be three-dimensional images after they become reality!!"
"Hmph, anyway, I'm not a random person. If the princess can't figure it out herself, then she can only wait for me to be casual. β
Eh...... Isn't it really human?
The three of them complained in their hearts, but they didn't say anything anymore. They just want to see Sun Wufan's liveliness, and it's boring to continue.
Soon, the crown prince's enthronement ceremony will begin. Although other countries only report it, they will not engage in such grand ceremonies, after all, it is only an appointment/enthronement ceremony, and it is not an enthronement (emperor). However, after all, the Longxia Empire has a special situation, there has never been a prince before, and now this prince has been separated for many years and has only recently recognized the emperor, this kind of great joy is of course more grand. Moreover, it can be regarded as a good explanation of the ins and outs to people from all walks of life in the world, so that there will be no jokes or things in some situations.
It is said that it is a ceremony, but in fact, it is just the emperor reading the manuscript on it, and in addition to the ministers, there are also envoys from various countries.
However, except for the ministers of the Longxia Empire, the envoys of various countries were not very peaceful (quiet). However, the location they were arranged was originally in the VIP area, and the VIP area was large enough, and their whispering would not affect the ceremony on the stage.
However, compared to the boring and meaningless ritual on the stage, the envoys of the countries and the major forces paid more attention to the two countries in the VIP area, the Gerry Kingdom and the Tyrant Yu Empire!
"That's Princess Avril!
"Yes, it looks like even if it will be ten years later, the crown prince of the Longxia Empire is blessed!"
"Speaking of the crown prince of the Longxia Empire, don't you think he's too young? doesn't he actually mean that he's actually the oldest, but it doesn't look like it!"
"How important is the position of the crown prince, this is airborne, if it is not the eldest, how can it serve the public? And this is the crown prince of the Longxia Empire, and he looks like the Longxia Emperor, I think it must be right. He should be a genius, his strength reached a certain level when he was young, and he could naturally maintain his youth. β
"Well, but I didn't expect the Grand Duke of the Tyranny Yu Empire to come...... They're hostile to the Longxia Empire!!"
"Yes, the rise of the Longxia Empire back then bit off a piece of the meat of the Tyranny Empire, and after that, there were constant conflicts, and they actually sent people to ...... It can't be the Third Grand Duke himself!?"
"Isn't it, the Third Grand Duke has been pursuing Princess Avril all along!
"Hehe, the Grand Duke is not just pursuing, if he can, he will even kidnap it directly! I don't know, what is the use of him coming here? The Longxia Empire is not afraid of their tyrannical Yu Empire!"
There was a lot of discussion, but the parties didn't seem to hear it, or they didn't care if they heard it.
Soon, the ceremony ended. Because there is no precedent, this so-called ceremony is only a stage set up outside, and after the end, an open-air banquet is held.
"Boy, do you see that?"
Before the official start, Xu Xiaoyang introduced Sun Wufan to the Grand Duke of the Tyranny Yu Empire.
"The Tyranny Empire is different from other countries, the dukes of the feudal feud do not have a very loud name, only the first, second, and third, and this Duke Sang Touyang is the third duke, and there is no problem with calling it like this. β
"And then?" Sun Wufan was expressionless.
"And he's your rival, Avril's suitor!"
"Cut, boring!"
"Hehe, it's not like you don't want to ignore it...... Wait, don't kill people here! The two countries are still at war, and if the guests die here, it will be a shame to spread the word, so save me a little face!"
"Who cares about you!?"
Although he said so, Sun Wufan didn't plan to be the third eldest duke of the other party, and this kind of goods can also relieve boredom by playing slowly.
The envoys of all countries have come to congratulate, and since it is a congratulation, there must be a congratulatory gift. So before the banquet officially began, Sun Wufan and Xu Xiaoyang accepted gifts from guests on it like birthday stars.
The power of the guests is not stingy, and they give some precious things, but they can only be regarded as ordinary, until the third Grand Duke.
Well......
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became solemn, the two countries were still hostile, and it was not uncommon for the Third Grand Duke to take advantage of this opportunity to assassinate the emperor.
However, the emperor of the Longxia Empire is a demigod-level powerhouse, and there will be no shortage of various treasures, although the third grand duke is also very strong, but others still don't believe that he can assassinate the emperor. It is more likely to assassinate the crown prince, after all, it is a rival in love. But that kind of behavior that seeks death and the gains outweigh the losses, no matter how stupid people are, they will not do it.
"I've seen Your Majesty Long Xia!" The third grand duke maintained his etiquette, and then faced Sun Wufan: "Hmph, is this His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Long Xia? Sure enough, he is a talent!!"
All:......
Your expression doesn't match your words at all!
Of course, Xu Xiaoyang also knew that the third duke was hostile to Sun Wufan, but now he wanted to watch the play more, so he didn't stop it.
Seeing this, the third Grand Duke became even more unscrupulous.
"I'm going to give you a gift, I don't know if you dare to accept it!?"
"Oh, what is it?" Sun Wufan became interested.
He didn't care, but the onlookers were scared a lot.
How could anyone give a gift like this? He even asked others if they dared to do so, what kind of dangerous gift could it be?
"Someone, come on!!"
The third grand duke naturally had attendants who came with him, and when he heard this, he immediately brought it up with a box.
οΌοΌ
If you want to assassinate, this is the most opportune time, even on the box.
Except for Xu Xiaoyang and Sun Wufan, everyone became nervous. Especially the royal guards of the Longxia Empire, their nerves became even more tense. But even Xu Xiaoyang was squinting, maybe something in the box had been detected by him.
Without waiting for the attendant to get closer, the Third Grand Duke walked over and opened the box himself.
This is!?
Everyone was in an uproar, of course there would be no fools who could come over to congratulate, at least they still had the eye to know the goods.
"Hmph, this is the crystallization left behind by a demigod-level powerhouse who failed to condense the godhead before he died! Although it is not a godhead yet, it also has the lifelong experience and skills of that demigod-level powerhouse. β
It was/Sure enough!?
Everyone was in an uproar again, and many people became even shorter of breath, this is a real treasure! If it is operated well, it can even create a demigod-level powerhouse!!
"Isn't it...... Would you give this kind of thing away!?Should you say that it is worthy of the Tyrannical Yu Empire!?
"Loser...... Even if it's an auction!!"
"Why...... Could it be that the Tyrant Yu Empire has reached the point of disliking demigod-level powerhouses!?"
"I can't tell...... These big empires, I'm afraid, can't look down on the fast-growing demigod-level powerhouses. If it's just the experience of demigod-level powerhouses, then they won't be less. Moreover, it is said that the crystals left over from the failure of condensing the godhead are easily polluted, and if you want to use them, you are likely to be infected by the negative emotions inside!"
"Even if that's the case, even if it's a big empire, it should still have a great effect, right!?
"No, no, no, think about it, won't anyone grab such treasures, especially those who are about to be promoted to the demigod level, or ......who have not been in the demigod level for a long time."
"Are you stupid? This is the crown prince of the Longxia Empire, even if he holds such a treasure, who would dare to rob it!?"
"Maybe there are outlaws everywhere. And what if it's those who have no hope of being promoted and their lifespan is coming soon? Besides, as long as you can grab your hands and hide and cultivate to the demigod level as soon as possible, even if it's a big empire, there's no way to do it, right? Although these empires all have demigod-level powerhouses, they can't hunt down a demigod-level powerhouse all over the world, right?"
"So that's the case! No wonder the Third Grand Guild asked Prince Longxia if he dared to accept this gift! Unless he took it and put it directly in the treasury, there would still be people who wanted to take something from him, right? If he didn't dare to take it with him, and then the Grand Duke would find an excuse to ask where to put it, I'm afraid he would lose face!"
Everyone suddenly realized, and one after another came to their senses - this is indeed a poisonous plan or something.
But Xu Xiaoyang didn't think so, the third duke's move shouldn't be so simple. And he also felt that there was something wrong with this crystal, but he couldn't see it.
Hey, do you see that?
Xu Xiaoyang gave his son a look.
"Humph......"
Sun Wufan was fearless, and walked over directly and picked up the crystals from the box, and put them under the sun to observe - the crystals were of course shining, after all, they were also half-finished godheads, and they also exuded a faint coercion.
β...... I see, then I thank you. β
Sun Wufan simply accepted it and put it in his pocket casually.
The third duke looked at Sun Wufan for a long time and nodded: "Very good, it's really a hero, I'm waiting for you on the battlefield!"
Everyone was speechless again, obviously they came to congratulate, and after sending dangerous gifts, they even said that they were going to go to the battlefield to fight against each other, and only the grand duke of the Tyranny Yu Empire would do this.
Immediately afterwards, the third Grand Duke walked up to Princess Avril and stared at her unabashedly: "I will get you." β
Avril: "......" (stern look)
At this moment, a coercion came from heaven and earth.
This is!?
Avril looked at Xu Xiaoyang in surprise.
"Third Grand Duke, Avril is my daughter-in-law, how dare you be so presumptuous!?"
"Huh!?"
The Third Grand Duke stumbled and was about to kneel forward, but he stubbornly held on to the table next to him and stood firm, but he also vomited a mouthful of blood forward.
"Poof...... This is the demigod...... I learned ......"
The Third Grand Duke found that although he had stood firm, he could not move an inch. If this continues, I am afraid that there will be an even greater ugliness.
Mutter......
The third Grand Duke gritted his teeth fiercely: "It's me...... Princess Avril, I apologize to you!"
Apologizing to Avril, not to Xu Xiaoyang or Sun Wufan, this is already the limit of the third Grand Duke. If he continues to push it, I'm afraid he would rather die than give in.
No matter what, it is not suitable to start a war with the Tyrant Yu Empire now (although the two sides may go to war at any time), and Xu Xiaoyang has withdrawn his coercion.
β...... Farewell!"
The third eldest duke didn't reply, but the expression on his face, anyone who saw it knew that he would never be able to just forget it. Of course, when he left the venue, no one saw a trace of triumphant hideous expression on his face.
In fact, he had already planted a nail here in the Longxia Empire - the gift he had just given. As long as it remains in the Longxia Empire, no matter who uses it, it will cause that hidden danger.
Moreover, this hidden danger is still the information they got from somewhere, and then they studied the gift based on this information. The third Grand Duke didn't believe that the Longxia Empire also had that information, after all, the source of the information was the taboo of this world-the Abyss Organization, and a person in the Abyss Organization had a grudge against the Longxia Empire, no matter how he thought about it, that information would not flow to the Longxia Empire.
