Chapter 381: Cause and Effect!
"Why!" Ye Feng tried to think of countless possibilities, such as the Ethereal Spirit Clan would ask him to help collect the spirit essence in order to resurrect the ancient gods of their clan, but he never imagined that the other party would actually make such a request!
In all fairness, hearing such a request, Ye Feng's heart was shocked or shocked, of course he knew that Princess Alfalfa was a powerful woman in the Tianyuan Empire! Ordinary people would subconsciously surrender and fear even if they mentioned her, this was the innate fear of imperial power among civilians!
And even a martial artist, there is a certain limit to the awe of the royal princess, Ye Feng never thought that he would do something bad to this alfalfa princess! But after looking at the grim expressions of the ethereal clan members in front of him, after making sure that they were not playing tricks on themselves, he smiled!
Ye Feng said with a smile: "I was thinking, if you weren't crazy, or I was crazy, I would have followed you to this kind of place!" He looked at that Ling'er and said with some mockery, the meaning is self-evident, let him do this kind of thing, it's just a matter of life!
And the three old men seemed to have expected Ye Feng's reaction, compared to the embarrassment of Ling'er's face, the middle-aged man, who was his father, stood up again, looked at him, and sighed: "We know that this request is difficult for strong people, but Xiaoyou, please believe that we have no ill will towards you!"
If it was before, Ye Feng might have believed the other party's words, but now, he only felt that it was too hypocritical, and looked at everyone coldly, he rebuked unceremoniously: "Assassinate the princess today, and don't ask why, do you think I can do it? If I can't do it, I will be punished by the Nine Clans! Moreover, what reason do I have to promise you? Do you think I am a fool!"
No matter what the other party's purpose was, for Ye Feng, such a request would not be accepted at all, although he had to admit that the conditions that the Ethereal Spirit Clan could give him were very tempting, but the premise was that he had the life to enjoy it!
The three old men looked at each other again, and then, the old man on the top seat explained unhurriedly: "We can understand your indignation at the moment, let me analyze it for you, you may not understand why we want you to die, in fact, it is not as simple as you think!"
"Or rather, this is not a joke, Princess Alfalfa, for our ethereal race, is a huge threat, she has been trying to wipe out our race all these years, if it weren't for the extreme secrecy we hid, now the ethereal race is extinct!"
"So, if this is the reason why you want her to die, then I still can't believe it, why let me do it as an outsider? I don't think that my strength alone can be comparable to your entire clan! That is too flattering to me!" Ye Feng was not carried away, and said rationally!
The old man nodded, showing a little admiration, and said: "That's right, but you ignored one point, precisely because you are an outsider, so, no matter whether your assassination fails or not, Princess Alfalfa's side will not suspect our ethereal clan, which is also the reason why we must find outsiders to assassinate us!"
"Let's be blunt, over the years, we have been looking for powerful warriors outside, hoping that they can help us accomplish this feat, but no one meets this condition, this person must have no reverence for the royal family and have a strong killing ability!"
When Ye Feng heard this, he somewhat understood the other party's thoughts, the reason why the emotional ethereal clan was secretly watching him was this, but unfortunately, he didn't want to be this cannon fodder, and more importantly, he didn't know enough that there was any grudge between this alfalfa princess and the ethereal clan, and it was too unwise to rashly trap himself into it!
"I can't help you with this favor, and I don't know how you think I have your qualifications, but I can tell you very clearly, I'm not the right person, please find someone else!" After saying this, Ye Feng didn't want to stay in this ridiculous place for a moment!
He turned to leave, but the voice from behind him stopped him!
"You and the scouts of the Great Qin Empire's envoy group have reached some kind of agreement, you are more qualified than us! Don't doubt us, since we have chosen you, we have naturally considered it sufficiently, so don't be so anxious to refuse, although this matter is risky, once it succeeds, what you gain will be beyond your expectations!"
As soon as these words came out, Ye Feng's body was shocked, and he immediately turned his head, and a cold glow burst out of his eyes, it turned out that the movements of himself and Xie Tianyu and others outside the city still failed to hide from more people, such as the ethereal clan elements in front of him, it is very likely that they witnessed a qiē!
"Is this why you chose me? Very good, I didn't expect that you had someone who followed me for so long, but I didn't find out, but I felt more and more, since your people are so powerful, why do you need me?
"If it is really as you think, Princess Alfalfa would have died a long time ago, if possible, we even hope that a Divine Martial Realm master will deal with her, but unfortunately, the Divine Martial Realm masters of the Heavenly Abyss Empire are all untouchable by us, and a strong enough Martial Saint is not enough to deal with Princess Alfalfa's subordinates!"
"Let's tell you the truth, this matter, in fact, you have to do it if you don't do it!" The old man on the top seat suddenly changed Heshan's tone, and said so fiercely!
Ye Feng narrowed his eyes, feeling the unkindness in the other party's tone, and was a little puzzled, where did they get their confidence, thinking that they could force others to do such ridiculous and impossible things!
But soon, that Ling'er stood up without authorization and said something that made Ye Feng's heart chill!
"The Chi Feng you hit hard is Princess Alfalfa's subordinates, just imagine, if you let Alfalfa know, do you think the Heavenly Machine Sect is willing to protect you?"
As soon as the words fell, Ye Feng burst out with a murderous gaze, and Ling'er, who was approaching, took a step back with a pale face, and her father blocked the front, resisting his killing attempt with a posture of not being angry and arrogant!
"You're threatening me!" Ye Feng said coldly, Chi Feng was Alfalfa's subordinate, so the black hand behind the dark exchange was also revealed, this was a secret he didn't know!
"Xiaoyou, although you and I have different purposes, but at least, now we have a common enemy, in fact, you were chosen because you were able to defeat Chi Feng, the current Tianyuan Empire, under the Shenwu Realm, no one is stronger than you, although even so, the probability of killing the Alfalfa princess is still very low, but, don't forget, you still have the envoy group of the Qin Empire to help!"
The old man on the top seat helped Ye Feng analyze the situation, but it made him feel a smell of conspiracy!
"On the Qin Empire's side of the prophet, you also colluded?" Ye Feng thought of Xie Tianyu and Lian'er, and felt that they should not be that kind of people, but then, the words of the old man on the top seat were still so chilling!
"There is no need to collude, just tell them, Princess Alfalfa wants them to die, then, the prophet of the Qin Empire will inevitably make a crazy decision, that prince is not a person who sits idly by, therefore, you have an absolute helper to help you complete this matter, and in the imperial city, there is also the internal response of our ethereal clan, as long as you agree to this matter, it is inevitable!"
Ye Feng suddenly realized, it turned out that he had been targeted for a long time, and now he was a chess piece, which was placed in a specific position, and he couldn't even refuse, because taking a step back was also death, rather than being approached by the alfalfa princess, it was better to complete an unprecedented terrifying assassination with the envoys of the Qin Empire!
Thinking of this, Ye Feng felt a cold air rushing up his head, this group of ethereal clans in front of him really calculated things to the extreme, from the slightest coincidence, they actually laid out such a careful situation, and even put people in, and others didn't know about it!
"Wonderful, really wonderful, Ye Feng, it seems that you have to respond to this task!" Xuan Lao also sighed helplessly in his mind!
Ye Feng was unwilling, this kind of feeling of being manipulated by others was very uncomfortable, he had never been the kind of person who resigned himself to fate, he gritted his teeth ruthlessly, looked angrily at the ethereal clansman in front of him, looked at the dignified hypocritical cheeks, and really felt that Princess Alfalfa should really destroy this group of villains!
Even though he didn't know why Princess Alfalfa had a relationship with the Ethereal Clan, he had a faint bad feeling, and this feeling exploded in depression, and in the end he couldn't hold it back!
Ye Feng opened his mouth and said: "Give me another reason, a reason to do it, since you have chosen me, I am afraid that you have thought of any possibility, then, I can try to help you, but you must tell me, why, or rather, what are you ethereal clan planning, that princess, why do you want to kill you all!"
Death also has to know the beginning, Ye Feng really doesn't want to be innocent cannon fodder, knowing that the dark exchange is a ghost made by Princess Alfalfa, he already has a deep evil feeling for this woman, but this is still not enough to make him kill, unless, the other party wants him to die!
When the members of the Ethereal Clan heard Ye Feng ask this, they seemed to have expected it, and they were still supported by the old man on the top seat, and then sighed: "Little friend, I don't know if you believe in fate, as early as a thousand years ago, the wizards of our clan had a prophecy that after a thousand years, demons will be born chaotically, our clan will be wiped out from within, and the human continent will also fall into a land of no return!"
"I don't know if this prophecy will come true for your human continent, but for our ethereal race, the prophecy of annihilation from within has already begun to come true! From a split a hundred years ago, a traitor appeared among us, she is Princess Alfalfa's grandfather!"
"What!" Ye Feng was surprised, isn't Princess Alfalfa's biological father the Emperor Taishang of His Majesty? Could it be that the royal family of the Tianyuan Empire is a branch of the Ethereal Clan?
This statement is too shocking, no one will believe such words lightly, Ye Feng naturally does not dare to believe it, but the old man explained to himself: "I know you are puzzled, but this is a bloody fact, it is impossible for ignorant people to know the truth of all the royal family!"
"However, today's majesty is not the descendant of the ethereal clan, and the current royal family is not what you imagined, it can only be said that only Princess Alfalfa has completely inherited her grandfather's bloodline and vowed to destroy her own race, and you won't believe that today's majesty is just a fake of the tanuki for the prince!"
When Ye Feng heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched, it was really a shocking secret, although it was hard to believe such words, but subconsciously, he seemed to understand why his majesty was able to do something like a dark exchange on his sister today but turned a blind eye! Could it be that it was really as the old man in front of him said?
"Alfalfa, the biggest enemy of our ethereal clan, he not only inherited his grandfather's bloodline, but also inherited his last wish, from the moment he defected, he was committed to exterminating all ethereal clansmen, between her powerful royal background, our ethereal clan has been secretly encircled and suppressed countless times in the past few decades!"
