Xiao Zhan turned his head to look at the old man who came closer, and after he sat down, he smiled and said:

"If you care about Dugu Ao's life and death, you won't appear now."

The old man didn't speak, but looked at Xiao Zhan.

He couldn't see Xiao Zhan's age, nor could he see through Xiao Zhan's strength.

Xiao Zhan drank the wine in the wine gourd, and then casually hung the wine gourd around his waist.

At this time, hundreds of civil and military officials were waiting anxiously outside the main hall.

The old man just wanted to speak, but suddenly turned his head to look at the dragon.

Because Duguao, the lord of the country, who originally didn't have the slightest breath, slowly opened his eyes at this time.

Not only that, Dugu Ao can also feel that although his body is weak, the feeling as if he is being pressed by the mountain and can't lift any strength is gone.

It was as if he had been reborn.

Dugu Ao's face was full of astonishment, and in the next moment, a smile appeared in his eyes, and his face returned to indifference.

He actually got up directly from the dragon's collapse.

Although he was covered in his own blood, he was able to get to the ground.

He walked over to Xiao Zhan and the old man, sat down on the chair, nodded at Xiao Zhan and said:

"I admire your medical skills."

Xiao Zhan waved his hand, took off his wine gourd and handed it to Dugu Ao, and said with a smile:

"Fill me with good wine in your palace."

Dugu Ao took the wine gourd with a smile, and then threw it to the chief eunuch who was standing next to him with an excited face.

"Go and fill up the best wine in the palace, and besides, don't let anyone know about my awakening for the time being."

The chief eunuch nodded, and then ran towards the outside of the main hall.

A minister grabbed the chief eunuch and asked anxiously:

"How's the lord of the kingdom?"

The chief eunuch shook his head, did not dare to say anything, and after breaking free, he ran into the distance.

At the same time, the three princes who had already changed into their costumes had also come outside the main hall.

As soon as they wanted to enter the main hall, they were stopped by two strong men who suddenly appeared.

These are the two powerhouses in the early stage of the Taiyi Realm, and they are also worshiped in the palace.

The three princes were full of displeasure.

"Two worshippers, my father's life and death are unknown, we need to enter the main hall immediately."

The two worshippers had grim faces and didn't say a word, but they just didn't let people in.

At this point, everyone didn't understand what was going on

In the main hall.

Dugu Ao glanced at the queen who was completely lifeless on the dragon collapse, frowned and asked Xiao Zhan:

"Sir, what is the Queen?"

"It's dead," Xiao Zhan said lightly:

"Don't you know that she is the murderer who poisoned you?"

"Without her, the arrangement of this hall and the garden outside would not have had any effect."

"I don't understand why your queen wants to kill you, but ...... I'm not interested."

Dugu Ao frowned, a flash of relief quickly flashed in his eyes, his eyes moved away from the queen's corpse, and when he looked at the door again, his gaze had become extremely cold.

A few seconds later, Dugu Ao looked at the golden-robed old man.

This is the most powerful worship in the palace, and it is also the most powerful existence of the royal family.

If it weren't for this single-minded cultivation, he would have been able to become the lord of the Qingming Immortal Kingdom.

This royal ancestor is called Dugu and seeks defeat.

That's right, he changed the name himself, which shows his arrogance and self-confidence.

Dugu Ao looked at Dugu and asked respectfully:

"Ancestor, what do you think?"

Dugu's face was calm, and he slowly spoke:

"You will definitely die before, and I intend to support the eldest prince to inherit the throne of the country."

"Now that you're healed

I don't bother with all these things."

Saying that, Dugu got up and looked at Xiao Zhandao:

"Your Excellency may as well go and sit with me, I have the best wine in the Qingming Immortal Kingdom."

Xiao Zhan nodded, followed Dugu to get up, and then walked towards the door of the main hall.

The two walked to the door of the main hall and looked at the three princes at the same time.

Immediately, the two of them jumped into the air, flew into the air, and disappeared in an instant.

In the deepest part of the palace, there is a huge bamboo forest, which is unusually quiet.

This is the place where Dugu lives and seeks defeat.

In the depths of the bamboo forest, there is a bamboo building.

In the courtyard, there is a bamboo table and two bamboo chairs.

After Xiao Zhan sat down, Dugu went to the bamboo building to take out two jars of good wine.

In the next moment, Dugu's wrist flicked, and the wine jar instantly flew towards Xiao Zhan, and the wind that rolled up instantly blew the entire bamboo forest to stagger.

In the sky above the entire imperial city, lightning and thunder thundered in an instant, and the wind and clouds changed abruptly!

In the Temple of Destiny.

Dugu Ao felt the aftermath of the battle, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He knew that Xiao Zhan was very strong, but he didn't expect that Xiao Zhan's momentum was not weaker than that of Old Ancestor Dugu.

Retracting his thoughts, Dugu looked at the door and didn't say a word.

Half an hour passed, and the three princes couldn't wait any longer.

The eldest prince looked at the two worshippers who stopped at the door, gritted his teeth and shouted:

"Let's go in, I want to know how my father is doing!"

The other two princes also looked impatient.

But in their eyes, it didn't look like worry, it looked like some other emotion.

An hour passed.

The three princes were still unable to enter the main hall.

The eldest prince suddenly snorted coldly.

In the next moment, two powerful auras suddenly fell from the sky and landed behind the eldest prince.

One of them felt it and whispered in the ear of the eldest prince:

"There is no living person in the main hall!"

Hearing this, the eldest prince's eyes lit up.

In the next moment, he was about to rush into the main hall.

The two powerhouses behind him also exerted their whole body energy and locked on the two worshippers guarding the door.

"Big brother! What are you anxious about?"

The second prince snorted coldly.

In the next moment, the two powerhouses suddenly turned into streamers and burst out, standing beside the second prince.

Not only that, but two strong men appeared and stood beside the third prince.

The eldest prince's face turned cold, he looked at the civil and military officials, and shouted:

"Father is gone!"

"I am the great prince, and I should inherit the throne of the country! Don't bow down yet!"

The civil and military officials present also guessed that something had happened to the lord of the country.

But before, the lord of the country did not canonize the prince!

According to the rules, it is true that the eldest prince should inherit the throne of the country.

Just when the civil and military officials were about to kneel, the second prince sneered, and suddenly took out a golden scroll of holy decrees:

"My father has already left a decree stating that I am the next lord of the country!"

"Brother Huang shouldn't be disobeying his father's holy decree?"

Hearing this, the civil and military officials were stunned, then stopped kneeling and stood up again.

Just when the eldest prince wanted to speak, the third prince suddenly sneered:

"Second Emperor Brother, what a coincidence, I also have a copy of the Holy Decree left by my father here."

"I'm afraid the holy decree in your hand is fake."

At this time, the civil and military officials present did not dare to speak.

The lord of the country had just died, and the body was still in the main hall, and the three princes actually fought for the position of the lord of the country at the gate of the main hall.

This is a brother of the same father and mother, as for it?

And it is rumored that the eldest prince is kind-hearted, the second prince is talented, and the third prince is low-key and humble.

Now look at these three

Prince, none of them is a fuel-efficient lamp.

In the main hall, a chill flashed on the face of the lord of the country, Dugu Ao, and his gaze became extremely complicated.

The three princes, over the years, have behaved very well in front of him, and each has its own merits.

But now he realized that his three sons were all pretending.

He still didn't speak, wanting to see what his three sons could do.

He should be a corpse that hasn't cooled yet.

And none of the three sons cared.

All they care about is the position of the lord of the country.

Suddenly, a powerful aura descended from the sky.

The powerhouses of those forces that had been hidden from the world have arrived.

They stood behind the three princes, and the situation suddenly became tense.

The strong man who supported the three princes immediately fought.

In the sky above the palace, the situation suddenly changed dramatically.

But no one dared to approach the bamboo forest in the depths of the palace.

In the bamboo forest.

Xiao Zhan and Dugu had already finished their discussion and were drinking.

Xiao Zhan felt the battle that broke out in the palace, and suddenly chuckled and said:

"You're not going to take care of it?"

Dugu shook his head lightly:

"If Dugu Ao can't handle it, he is no longer worthy of being the lord of this country."

Xiao Zhan smiled and didn't speak.

Outside the main hall.

A group of strong men are in full swing.

Suddenly, another group of strong men descended from the sky and surrounded them.

Dugu Ao also appeared at the door of the main hall.

He glanced at his three princes indifferently, and then said:

"Break into the palace without permission, trick the three princes into competing for the position of the lord of the country, and kill!"

Hearing this, the worship of the royal family all exerted all their strength and attacked the strong people who supported the three princes.

The faces of the three princes became ugly.

The civil and military officials, after a short period of stunned, also knelt on the ground and shouted excitedly:

"I wish the Lord of the Kingdom a good recovery!"

Dugu Ao snorted coldly, looked at his three princes, and said indifferently:

"Come in with me."

The three princes trembled and walked into the hall with pale faces.

After seeing the body of their mother, the three princes suddenly looked like ashes, and they all fell to the ground.

Dugu Ao took the golden dragon whip hanging on the wall, and with a flick of his wrist, the long whip rolled up a stream of golden light and slapped it the three princes.

In just an instant, the three princes lay on the ground covered in blood, beaten to death.

But they didn't dare to let out the slightest wail.

Because they know that Dugu arrogant hates people who have no ambition the most, and hates people who beg for mercy the most.

Lonely and proud, the cold light in his eyes flashed.

"I really don't know, did you bewitch the queen to poison me!"

"I'll tell you, a year ago, I guessed that it was the queen who did it!"

The three princes' bodies trembled wildly, and they knelt in front of Dugu Ao again, no matter what they said.

Lonely and arrogant snorted:

"I thought I wouldn't survive, that's why I didn't expose your plot!"

"After all, if this matter gets out, the face of the royal family will be gone!"

"But you're going to be disappointed, I'm not dead!"

"It's just that poor queen, she is such a gentle person, for your sake, she actually poisoned me!"

"Can't you be your prince, and you want the position of lord of the country so much? Do you think it is a good thing to be the lord of the kingdom?"

"If any of you can stand the test, what if I give you the throne of the kingdom!"

"With your skills, you can't bear the weight of this position!"

Speaking of this, Dugu Ao closed his eyes, and a tear slipped down the corner of his eye.

In the next moment, the long whip in his hand fell instantly.

Before the three princes could even say their voices begging for mercy, they had already cut off their lives.

The battle outside is also coming to an end.

The strong man who supported the three princes all died!

This is due to the fact that the number of royal offerings is tripled.

And these powerhouses also come from some other hidden sects.

What they support has always been Dugu and arrogant.

A moment later, Dugu Ao called the chief eunuch in.

Seeing the bodies of the three princes, the chief eunuch trembled and knelt directly on the ground.

Dugu said expressionlessly:

"Declare it down, the Assassins attacked and assassinated me, and the three princes died heroically to protect me."

"In addition, let Concubine Ping, Concubine Hua, and Concubine Hong come to my dormitory tonight."
