It was noon, and Li Xiang had not returned. This morning, Catherine got up several times and planned to break into the prince's palace.

Odyssey promised: "He hasn't come back before dark, so we'll go with you." Then Catherine was stopped, and even then she was in the room.

In fact, not only Catherine was worried about Li Xiang, although Kyle looked indifferent, he didn't go to work in Danfeng, and he also stayed at home honestly and waited for Li Xiang's news. Almost everyone, like Kyle, waited for news. However, only the little goblin Colin is missing, Danfeng's business needs him to take care of it, but the little goblin also looked absent-minded before he went out.

"It's back!" Rocta suddenly cheered, who had been guarding outside.

Hearing this, everyone stood up and rushed out of the door together. When they came to the door, they found several people carrying a stretcher, on which lay the dying Vulcan, one can imagine how much he suffered in prison, but he did not see the shadow of Li Xiang.

Volcan's eldest disciple Heffy hurriedly rushed forward, inspected the master's situation, and whispered, "Teacher!

Hearing Hefy's voice, Vulcan barely opened his eyes and wanted to open his mouth to say something, but he couldn't make a sound.

The troll witch doctor Lorcan rudely pushed Heffy away, roughly examined Vulcan's body, and said confidently, "With me, I can't die!"

"Where's Li Xiang?" asked Catherine, very uneasy.

A few hours earlier, the situation in the palace of the Prince of Orleans had been tense and at a moment's notice.

The people of the two major families wanted to take down Li Xiang's blood hatred for their dead relatives, but Li Xiang was the dragon slayer who stabbed the Black Dragon King Shivasa, and Li Xiang's words made them dare not act rashly: "Dare to ask you who is harder than the Black Dragon King?"

Li Xiang was also sweating in his heart, he knew that he had a few catties and a few taels, and now he was completely counting on the fact that these people could be bluffed by the name of the dragon slayer, and only then would the drama continue to sing.

Leo, the patriarch of the Blood Axe family, couldn't stand this farce anymore, and suddenly got up and scolded: "Anything that is embarrassing, give me a retreat!" The old man has been fighting all his life, and his bearing is not angry and arrogant, and even the people of the Golden Palm family were obediently retreated to the side by him.

Leo came to Li Xiang and said, "Your Excellency, as a member of Sino and a dragon slayer, your strength is naturally not comparable to us mortals, but after all, the world cannot spare a single word. The juniors of our two families are incompetent, and they died tragically because of Your Excellency, and I hope that the dragon slayer can give us an explanation. Otherwise, it will be the greatest insult to the Blood Axe Family!"

Before Li Xiang could answer, the patriarch of the Golden Palm family walked over and stood side by side with Leo, holding his head high and saying, "Compared to the dragon slayer, we people are naturally not worth mentioning. If Your Excellency can't give us justice, even if the fish is dead, we will not hesitate to do it! No matter how unbearable the Palme d'Or family is, they will fight for the honor of the family to the last person!"

"Honor? It seems to me that it's just a matter of face. Li Xiang said as he met the eyes of the two patriarchs. "The deceased is gone, and even if you take me and Vulcan to fight your fate, you will not be able to recover your losses. Even without me, this tragedy is only the inevitable result of your private fights with each other, and you are now just trying to find a scapegoat to justify your mistakes!"

"Presumptuous!" someone responded angrily.

After all, the two patriarchs were calm and old-fashioned, and they raised their hands to stop their clansmen and waited for Li Xiang's next words.

Li Xiang's eyes were sharp, and he said aggressively: "If you want to break the net, I will accompany you to the end!" Li Xiang said half of his words, which whetted everyone's appetite, and even the two patriarchs were a little breathless, hoping that Li Xiang could come up with some satisfactory solution. "But I do feel guilty about this, and no matter what I do, I can't make up for your loss and emotional wounds. After the Battle of Black Dragon Valley, the Dragon Slayer's own negligence caused two right-hand men, Stephen and Mares, to compare the merits of the Dragon Slayer with each other, and finally both died in the duel. This fact is the regret of the dragon slayer Li Xiang for the rest of his life. ”

Li Xiang suddenly said something inexplicable, and everyone was confused.

Suddenly, someone applauded out of place, and everyone looked angrily at the applause, and the person who applauded was none other than the Prince of Orleans.

His Royal Highness ignored the angry eyes of the crowd and said to himself: "Good, good, good! The historian will surely record this regrettable history in the slightest, and the bards will also compose poems for the untimely death of the two men. ”

What kind of people the two patriarchs were, they immediately understood Li Xiang's intentions. When it comes to people of their level, the principle of doing things is nothing more than choosing the lesser of two evils. Despite their tough attitude, it was more of a gesture that had to be made, otherwise it would be difficult to convince the people. Tearing the skin with the dragon slayer would do their family more harm than good, and these two bigwigs wouldn't be stupid enough to do that. As Li Xiang said, it's not an honor, it's a matter of face at all.

The jealousy between Stephen and Mares was commonplace, which eventually led to the tragic deaths of the two, and the rumors inevitably became a joke in the market. Li Xiang's words elevated the meaningless death of the two to the point of being heavier than Mount Tai - the two fought to the death for honor.

As for whether the historian would really write like this?

After this matter was approved by Li Xiang, the two families had two more important figures who participated in the dragon slaying battle for no reason - the two right-hand men of the dragon slayer. For the two families, this will make their fame even more prosperous, and even immortal. Since ancient times, kings have abounded, and dragon slayers have counted them on one hand. The Dragon Slayer Family?

The two patriarchs said in a very tacit understanding, as if they had a soul in their hearts: "It is a supreme honor for the two of them to be able to serve the dragon slayer. ”

Li Xiang touched his heart with his right hand and said solemnly: "You call me a dragon slayer and treat me as a hero." For me, they are also my heroes. Heroes deserve to be treated like heroes, right? ”

The Prince of Orleans was extremely cooperative and said, "A state funeral! ”

Li Xiang said with great sorrow: "At that time, please allow me, the guilty man, to attend the funeral of the two heroes, and I also want to tell the world about the loss of my best friend." By the way, in my hometown, it is generally necessary to build monuments or sculptures to commemorate heroes, and I wonder if Roland has this custom. ”

As soon as Li Xiang and the Prince of Orleans sang and harmonized, they quickly lifted the two dead ghosts to the sky. The two patriarchs have also met the people in the market, and their faces can't hold back, showing a satisfied smile.

Li Xiang's back was soaked with cold sweat, and his infantryman's dangerous move was finally right.
