Chapter 323: The Death of the Crown Prince
"Damn it!"
A red flame suddenly ignited in front of him, and the voice that only he could hear came into his ears, and the white-haired old man's face was gloomy, and he stood up suddenly with a "bang".
A monstrous murderous aura suddenly descended and swept all directions!
The tense atmosphere was broken by this sudden sound, and everyone looked at him in amazement, their eyes full of doubt.
This is not an ordinary banquet, it was jointly initiated by the eight top forces, inviting all the giants of the Chaos Valley to discuss major matters together, this is a rare event in a thousand years, such a serious occasion, and the two top figures are at a time of tension, there should not be such a discordant voice.
Although this white-haired old man is not as famous as Mu Fengyun and Leng Ling, and can only be regarded as ordinary among the giants in the audience, how can he be a simple person who can appear at the banquet, it stands to reason that no matter how big the incident is, he should not be so unstable on such an occasion.
Unless it is, something really, really serious happens.
As for how serious it is, in the eyes of the giants, it is probably only possible to make them do so by destroying the sect and destroying the family.
The solemn atmosphere between the two was interrupted, Leng Ling looked indifferent with a cold face, but Mu Fengyun frowned, and said unhappily: "Old Hall Master Wu, this is not Xuanwu Hall, you are presumptuous!"
Master of Wulao Hall...... Xuanwu Hall...... This white-haired old man is actually the old hall master of Xuanwu Hall, this identity alone may be nothing, but he is also the three generations of princes of the Xuanwu Dynasty - the King of Yunnan, who can ascend to the throne of the Holy Emperor by only a fraction of a second.
It is natural that he will not be destroyed by the destruction of his family, but it is not far off, the red flame is a transmission note, and it is an urgent transmission note, unless there is an extremely important announcement, this kind of transmission note will not be used.
This transmission note is very short, and it only conveys one sentence - "The prince is not good......! It's broken!"
Generally, there will only be one crown prince, as a prince, who can ascend to the throne only by waiting for the emperor to die or voluntarily abdicate, which is the case in the Blood Moon Dynasty and the Qinglong Dynasty, but the Xuanwu Dynasty is different.
Because of the exercises, it is extremely difficult for the people of the royal family of the Xuanwu Dynasty to have children, even if there are three thousand beauties in the harem, and the beauties are like clouds, there are very few heirs, and they are basically princesses, not princes, this is a very fatal thing for a dynasty, and the general family has no heirs to die only this family, and there is no royal successor who is going to die in the country.
The first few generations of such drawbacks were not obvious, and the Xuanwu Dynasty also only chose one prince, until the disadvantages gradually appeared, and the battle for the crown prince's position was extremely fierce, especially the battle for the throne a thousand years ago, the tragedy was simply appalling, and the entire palace was flooded with blood, and those who failed to seize the heir were killed, those who failed to rebel were killed, those who failed to mutiny were killed, and those who were implicated because they stood on the wrong side...... Abound, the originally flourishing royal clan has become thin in just four or five years, many collateral branches have disappeared from the world, the Manchu civil and military forces have also undergone several bloodbaths, and the entire state system has almost collapsed.
Perhaps the will of heaven is like this, the Xuanwu Dynasty is in an unprecedented civil strife, and the other three dynasties will naturally not miss such a good opportunity.
Since then, the Xuanwu Dynasty has set up three princes to avoid such a tragedy from happening again, and only then has it gradually regained its vitality and got rid of the crisis of losing the country.
This is the case with the third prince mentioned in the transmission, although the princes of other dynasties have a noble status, but the weight may not be heavy, as long as the emperor is not satisfied, he can be abolished at any time and another prince can be established, anyway, there are many sons of me, and no one can inherit my inheritance without you a prince?
But the Xuanwu Dynasty is not, the weight of a prince is far beyond that of ordinary courtiers, and it can really be said that one person is above ten thousand people, as for the name of the abolished prince...... As long as the prince's head was not caught in the door and there was nothing to rebel in, there would be no such thing.
Especially today, the Xuanwu Holy Emperor only gave birth to three sons, and just happened to be crowned three princes, and the weight of them is self-evident.
But now, he was told that the third prince's soul card was broken, and Rao is a generation of heroes and the king of Yunnan was all terrified, and it could be seen from his behavior of shooting the case regardless of the occasion that he was brewing in his heart.
The soul card was broken, what did it mean, how could he not know?
Of the three princes today, the eldest prince Wu Jixuan has long been able to take charge of his own affairs and is now holding an important position in the court; the second prince Wu Lingyun has been chasing the peak of martial arts and has not returned to the court for several years; the third prince Wu Zhixuan is deeply favored and went to the place of trial half a month ago to experience and bear a heavy responsibility.
Jixuan, Lingyun, and Zhixuan, it can be seen how much the Xuanwu Holy Emperor has expectations for his three sons.
But now, the third prince is ...... This was undoubtedly a huge blow to the already underdeveloped Xuanwu Dynasty.
What's more, the third prince, Uzhixuan, was ...... in the chaotic city where he was , this crime itself cannot escape no matter what.
Until the flame dissipated, the king of Yunnan was still in a dream, and he couldn't believe it. As the third prince, the Qinglong Holy Emperor's love for him is needless to say, he will definitely not be stingy with all kinds of treasures, and there will be no less life-saving things, in the trial in which a group of Qi Refining Realm martial artists participated, Wu Zhiyun's own cultivation has also reached the peak of the Qi Refining Realm, who has the ability to kill him? Who dares to kill him?
The Xuanwu Dynasty has participated in the trial site more than a hundred times, and there are often injuries, but there has never been such a serious loss, and it is really unimaginable that the crown prince of the dynasty will fall here.
The King of Yunnan is confident that with the current degree of favor of the Holy Emperor for the third prince, absolutely no one will be able to kill him, at least there will be no Qi Refining Realm, and the geniuses of the eight top forces will not be able to do it, and they will not dare to kill easily, the background of an old and middle-level imperial dynasty, if it is launched a crazy revenge, it is not so easy to bear.
So, it is likely that the death of the third prince was not a thought, but some kind of change that happened in the land of trials, which led to such a tragedy?
The king of Yunnan thinks much more far-reaching than ordinary people, and he himself has been to the place of trial, although some places are indeed full of dangers, and they are all extremely remote places, and it is not easy to meet, but the third prince is dead, and it can be inferred that there must be major changes in the place of trial.
"Could it be ......" The king of Yunnan thought of a possibility, his face became even more gloomy, and his anger rushed straight to his brain, if so, the punishment he would receive would be far beyond his original expectations.
In a short moment, the king of Yunnan flashed a thousand thoughts, fortunately, although he was angry, he still maintained a trace of sanity, and did not have a seizure on the spot, but he couldn't sit still, seeing everyone's puzzled eyes, he hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "This king is unwell, so he is out of company first!"
After speaking, he didn't look at Mu Fengyun and strode away.
"Old Hall Master Wu, ...... you" Before everyone could ask a word, the figure of the king of Yunnan had completely disappeared, leaving them confused.
What the hell is wrong with this old guy?
"I'm really ignorant. Mu Fengyun was ignored, his face was a little unpleasant, and he turned his head with a cold snort, as if he had forgotten the confrontation with Leng Ling.
......
After the king of Yunnan left the restaurant, he went all the way to the sky, and swept to the direction of Xuanwu Hall at great speed, and the tyrannical aura that was undisguised on his body made the pedestrians in the sky nervous, knowing that there was a terrifying strong man passing overhead, and the mood seemed to be not very good.
The king of Yunnan naturally didn't know the thoughts of the pedestrians in the sky, at this moment he himself was not only angry, but also quite worried, the death of the third prince, coupled with the changes in the land of trials, it was difficult to imagine what kind of monstrous anger His Majesty the Holy Emperor would have today.
And he had to report this matter in person, after all, everyone was dead, and he died in the territory under his nose, he definitely couldn't hide it, if he waited for the Xuanwu Holy Emperor himself to know that this matter was being reported, it would be a big mistake.
At this moment, his mood can be described as mixed, and the change in the place of trial is what he is particularly looking forward to after knowing some secrets, but now he is extremely hateful, because of this change, not only the third prince has taken him, but he is likely to take himself as well, what the hell is this.
He didn't know that an unprecedented change had indeed occurred in the land of trials, but it had nothing to do with Wu Zhixuan's death at all, and the real cause of death was the one he thought was the most unlikely.
It's no wonder that he can't be blamed, after all, Wuzhi Xuanben is the best among the trialists, and there are not many people who can win against him, plus the life-saving things given to him by the Xuanwu Holy Emperor, not to mention the junior of the Qi Refining Realm, even if it is an ordinary Lingyuan Realm powerhouse, it will take a lot of trouble to kill him, who would have thought that he would die in the hands of a small young man with a double level of Qi refining......
......
Heavenly Temple Medicine Garden.
Yang Yan held the Fire Flame Sword, panting slightly, the tip of the sword was stained with blood, and it fell to the ground with a tick, like raindrops sliding on the eaves, which was particularly charming.
On the opposite side, a noble young man a few years older than him slowly fell backwards, his eyes glazed, revealing instinctive disbelief in his confusion, as if asking: The other party's cultivation is so weak, even if his vitality is greatly damaged, why is the result like this?
Looking at the motionless corpse lying on the ground, Yang Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief, this battle can be described as thrilling, and he almost lost.
The clothes on the young man's body seem ordinary, but in fact they are invulnerable, I don't know what grade of treasure clothes it is, protecting his whole body, the fire sword slashed on it and there is not even a scratch to be seen, and the same is true for launching sword skills, which can only be blown away, but cannot be killed, and even the damage only relies on the shock of the attack, and the effect is not ideal after the weakening of the clothes.
To a certain extent, the dress worn by the young man was very similar to the Tianyu cloak that Yue Wuchen obtained, and if it was made exactly the same in appearance, the probability of being able to distinguish it was very low.
