Palace.

Taihe Temple.

"Your Royal Highness the Sixth Prince, the matter of your humble investigation has been investigated."

A eunuch knelt on the ground grovelly, his voice soft and sharp, and reported: "That Zhang Tao was involved in the case of Cui Shilang's death, and now he is in the Heaven Survey Division, and the situation is unknown. ”

"It's really self-defeating, just entered the city, the prince didn't have time to make a move on you, and you got involved in such a big thing......"

Zhou Ankang smiled proudly, a glint of resentment appeared in the corner of his eyes, and when he heard Zhang Tao's matter, he felt schadenfreude, and he wished that the other party would die immediately because of this incident.

Everything that Fengtian Academy experienced was his nightmare, his humiliation, which made him feel endless grievances every time he woke up from a night, which almost became his nightmare and haunted him all the time.

As long as Zhang Tao does not die for a day, he will have trouble sleeping and eating, and he will be uncomfortable......

"Has this news reached my father?" He asked in a deep voice.

The little eunuch lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, and replied truthfully: "Under Lu Shoufu's audience, the Holy Lord has already known about this. ”

"The result? Did the father execute that Zhang Tao and put him to death, with a thousand cuts? ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhou Ankang couldn't wait to know the result, his voice was a little excited, he wanted to hear Zhang Tao's sad news, which would make him feel happy.

"Returning to His Highness, the Holy Lord did not hold Zhang Tao accountable, but instead handed over the case to the Heaven Survey Division to deal with, and asked the Six Doors and the Criminal Department to assist in investigating the cause of Cui Shilang's death and the source of the Heart Devouring Gu......"

The little eunuch explained tremblingly: "Now this matter has caused a stir in the city, and all forces are waiting. ”

"Some people say that this Cui Shilang incident may set off a bloody storm in the court." He added in a low voice.

"Damn! Why is my father so mediocre that he ignores Zhang Tao? ”

Getting this answer, Zhou Ankang couldn't accept it, he really couldn't figure out what his father thought, such an important suspect, the other party would ignore it, it was really unreasonable!

As soon as these words came out, the little eunuch fell to his knees with a frightened thud, trembling all over, and said in a sincere panic: "Your Highness is cautious, be careful that this word reaches Your Majesty's ears." ”

"Humph!"

Zhou Ankang snorted coldly, disapproving, and said with a gloomy expression: "Then what is the reaction of Lu Shoufu and Chunqiu when they are discharged from the hospital?" ”

"I don't know what I do!" The little eunuch shook his head.

Immediately, he touched his chin, ignored the little eunuch on the side, and muttered to himself: "Cui Hao is a subordinate of Lu Jiuzhang, and he was born in the Spring and Autumn Academy at the same time, this matter is related to their reputation and interests, and they will definitely not give up!" ”

"By the way, is there any movement over there in the East Palace?" As if he had thought of something, he turned his head and asked.

"The prince doesn't seem to care about this matter, he will only see the ninth princess once during this period, and he will still be closed at other times......"

The little eunuch looked serious and replied seriously: "It is said that the [Heaven and Earth Overlord Sword] cultivated by the prince has reached a critical period, and it should be out of the customs in the next few days!" ”

"Humph! What about customs clearance? ”

Zhou Ankang's face froze, a flame of jealousy flashed in his eyes, and he sneered: "During the period of his retreat, this prince has already won over the cabinet Lu Shoufu, and now the top half of the officials in the imperial court are secretly supporting this prince...... Just wait for an opportunity, and the abolition of the crown prince is just around the corner! ”

In the end, he secretly clenched his fists, and monstrous ambitions surged from his body.

"Your Highness, we may be able to take advantage of this inspection by the Heaven Survey Division to make the East Palace man exposed... By the way, we can secretly eradicate dissidents. ”

Hearing this, the little eunuch's eyes rolled, and he hurriedly proposed: "But this requires a detailed discussion between His Highness and Lu Shoufu. ”

"Yes, yes, this is a good opportunity!"

Hearing the words in his ear, Zhou Ankang's eyes suddenly lit up, and a bold plan rose in his heart, and he praised the little eunuch: "Cao Xu, this prince has discovered for the first time that your mind is so flexible. ”

"Maybe I can take the opportunity to get rid of Zhang Tao and vent the hatred in my heart!"

After a pause, he looked straight and said, "You go out of the palace quickly with me, and this prince wants to meet Lu Shoufu." ”

......

"This is the Phantom Array of the Heart Refining Pavilion?"

As soon as Zhang Tao stepped into the Heart Refining Pavilion, he found himself in another space, and the sky and the earth were gray as far as the eye could see, and the light rain continued to fall from the dim sky, gradually turning into a pouring rain.

"Swamp?"

Seeing his surroundings, he immediately felt a deep sinking sensation in his feet, a swamp covered in silt, in which various corpses of the wreckage rose and fell.

The stench was stinking, the swamp was overgrown with wild grass, and all kinds of rotting corpses floated quietly on the water, and from time to time a bubble appeared in the rotting swamp, and then exploded, releasing a foul-smelling gas.

"It feels so real..."

Zhang Tao moved his body with difficulty, and a strong suction force appeared under his feet, and his figure quickly sank into the quagmire.

Heavy rain, foul-smelling swamps.

Once you fall into the swamp, there is no way to go to heaven and no way to go to the earth, you will definitely fall into despair, and you will be slowly devoured by the swamp mercilessly in the torment, and you will die without a whole body, becoming one of those floating wreckage.

Grunt! Grunt!

With Zhang Tao's appearance, the entire dead silence of the swamp began to boil, and one after another foul-smelling bubbles burst under the pouring rain.

Immediately afterward, a series of huge black shadows continued to churn in the swamp, galloping towards his location, and the stench of the wind swept through.

"Not good! The rain here can corrode true qi. ”

As soon as he appeared in the swamp, Zhang Tao released his true qi and protected his body with a gang qi shield to prevent his body from suffocating in the mud.

Immediately, his expression changed, and he instantly sensed that the Gang Qi shield was rapidly dissolving and disappearing under the washing of the rain.

The swamp was full of dangers and the situation was critical, he didn't say a word, he directly waved his hand to summon a flock of fire jackdaws, volleyed up in the air, and got rid of the shackles of the swamp.

Disheveled!

In an instant, the rotting sludge suddenly exploded and sputtered in all directions.

A huge black shadow rose from the swamp into the sky, opening its bloody mouth and aiming at Zhang Tao.

"Crocodile?"

Clang!

A sword was swung, and the golden stone exploded.

Zhang Tao frowned, and after seeing the hideous and terrifying face of the demon beast below, his face gradually became solemn.

Swamp predators!

A demon beast whose strength is not weaker than that of the late stage of the Second Heaven!

And judging from the rolling in all directions, there are at least hundreds of swamp predators here.

"When an ordinary martial artist encounters such a situation, it is impossible to complete the assessment at all!"

The rain erodes the true qi, the swamp has no foothold, and the crocodile is hideous and terrifying.

Alone, he was held up in the air by a fire jackdaw, and it was chilling to look at the dense scarlet eyes below.
