Chapter 40 The Imperial Palace Banquet, False Family Affection, and the Art of Observing Life

"I have prepared a one-foot galaxy for each of you, and once it is used, the land within a radius of miles will be turned into powder.

When it's time to use it, just think about it in your heart.

Whether you gather into bundles to attack and kill a single opponent, or divide into an infinite rain of swords to destroy all enemies, you can choose freely. ”

As he spoke, Mu Cang transmitted the information of the location of the Daluo Dao Sect into the minds of the two of them through telepathy.

"The Daluo Road station is located on Tianchi Island in the East China Sea, 1,500 kilometers away from the Shendu.

The people of this faction are proficient in ancient magic, and they have blocked the portal, so no one can find them for years.

The two of you only need to break through from a hundred meters above the periphery, and then use the True Qi to shock to destroy the barrier, go ahead. ”

Speaking of which, this method was researched by Song Di in the original book.

Mu Cang is now learning and applying it, and he has taught it to his two apprentices.

Wang Nanxun and Song Di immediately bowed their hands respectfully and said, "Obey, master." ”

Then he turned around and left.

But at this moment, Mu Cang suddenly said again: "Slow, how are you two going to pass?" ”

"Uh~"

The two looked at each other, and Wang Nanxun said, "Let's go by plane." ”

"No!"

Mu Cang said expressionlessly, "I want you to run away purely by foot power, and you must not take any means of transportation." ”

The two immediately understood that it was the master who was assigning homework.

Immediately nodded and said in a deep voice: "Yes!" ”

"Remember~"

Mu Cang turned around slowly, "Don't let me down." ”

The two apprentices looked at each other and said respectfully, "Yes!" Master! ”

Then, the two of them flashed and walked towards the outside of the palace with a rumbling wind.

Ten minutes later, the attendant in the palace trotted all the way through the door, walked up to Mu Cang, and said respectfully:

"Your Highness, there is an edict in the imperial palace, and His Royal Highness Xuan will enter the palace for a banquet tonight."

"Oh~"

Mu Cang turned his head and whispered to himself, "What do I want to do with my father?" ”

A few hours later, night fell.

The god capital of Great Xia, the Zhaoyang Hall of the Imperial Palace.

At this moment, the princes and princesses had slowly walked into the Zhaoyang Palace.

Among them, there are six princes and three princesses.

The eldest prince, Zunshuo Hou Murui, is chubby and kind, and his face is always smiling, but there is a hint of cold arrogance in his smile.

The eldest princess Mu Yun is cold and elegant, although she is over forty years old, she is still graceful.

The third prince, Wu'an Hou Mukai, has a strong physique, a military uniform, a dense beard, and is not angry and arrogant.

The fifth prince Xuanping Hou Muhe, is handsome and handsome, and his hope is indescribably expensive.

The fourth prince Mu Cheng and the sixth prince Mu Xing got together and muttered, although their appearance was not bad, but their bearing was a little mediocre compared with the previous princes.

Like Mu Cang, they have never been marquised.

The seventh princess Mu Hong and the eighth princess Mu Lan were still young, and as soon as they entered the Zhaoyang Palace, they ran to laugh and talk with the second princess.

The second princess's cold face couldn't be suppressed, and with a slightly doting smile, she talked with the two girls.

At this moment, Mu Cang's face was indifferent, and he slowly walked into the hall with his hands in his hands.

The seventh princess and the eighth princess immediately lit up with beautiful eyes, and they came to Mu Cang in small steps, and asked in a twittering voice:

"It's been a long time since I saw you, Xiao Jiu, eh, how did you look so good now!

Hey, why can't you even see the pores on your skin, hurry up, tell your sisters, what skin care products do you use?! ”

Mu Cang smiled lightly: "Seventh sister and eighth sister, I just made a slight breakthrough in martial arts, and nothing else." ”

As soon as they heard this, the seventh princess and the eighth princess were dumbfounded: "Ah, martial arts, so tired, forget it." ”

"Xiao Jiu, you are too modest."

At this time, the Fifth Prince, Xuanping Hou, suddenly walked over and said with a low smile, "You are the first person in our Great Xia Martial Dao, how can you say that you have only made a slight breakthrough?!" ”

Obviously, he was also fully aware of Mu Cang's affairs.

After all, Feng Yongchao and others, who were subordinate to Xuanping Hou, died in the Nine Emperors' Mansion.

He really didn't expect it.

Mu Cang, who he has always despised him, actually hides it so deeply.

When he learned this information at that time, Xuan Pinghou thought that he had read it wrong.

"Little Jiu!"

Suddenly, a thick palm pushed Xuanping Hou away.

The fierce third prince Wu Anhou walked over and glared at Mu Cang, and asked in a scolding voice: "Since you have such skills, why don't you join the military?!" What a waste!

In this way, you don't want to go anywhere after today's feast, follow me to the military headquarters, and I will give you a lieutenant to be a captain.

You're also of age, don't mess around like Little Four and Little Six all day long, when the time comes, you will pass on all your skills to the sergeants under my command, and you can be regarded as serving Daxia! ”

Wu Anhou's words were full of undoubtedness.

Mu Cang glanced at him and said lightly:

"Third child, are you teaching me how to do things?"

Third?!

Boy!

The princes and princesses listened to it.

They didn't expect that Xiao Jiu, who had always been gentle and cowardly, would dare to talk to the third brother like this.

From small to large.

Except for the eldest brother and the second sister, these younger brothers and sisters have always only been disciplined by the third brother, and they have never dared to raise the bar once.

Wu Anhou also froze.

His face visibly began to turn red, and his thick eyebrows exploded, and he was about to attack on the spot.

"That's it!"

At this time, the eldest prince Zun Shuohou came over and looked at a few people, and said gently, "This is the imperial palace, what do you look like when you are noisy here, and you are scattered." ”

The two princesses patted their chests and stuck out their tongues, laughed and walked away quickly, holding hands.

Xuanping Hou glanced at Mu Cang and Wu Anhou, grinned silently, and walked away slowly.

"Whew~"

Wu Anhou exhaled lightly, glanced at Mu Canghou fiercely, and also snorted coldly and walked towards the front of the hall.

Seeing everyone leaving, Zun Shuohou turned his head and smiled coldly at Mu Cang:

"Great master, I know that you are very famous in the martial arts world, but please note that this is the Imperial Palace, I advise you to keep a low profile."

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, and his tone was full of preaching:

"You need to know that too much pursuit of force will only become useless recklessness, and for royal nobles like us, wisdom and courage are the most important."

After that, the negative hand is about to leave.

But in his ears, Mu Cang's clear voice suddenly sounded.

"Without the support of strength, no matter how high the wisdom is, no matter how great the courage is, it is just a castle in the air, what do you think?"

Zun Shuohou's body stiffened for a moment, and then continued to walk away without replying.

Mu Cang looked at his chubby back and smiled indifferently:

"Mortals struggling in the whirlpool of power are really boring."

Relying on the terrifying spiritual power, Mu Cang could clearly perceive that the emotional fluctuations in this hall that were biased towards the category of warm family affection were very thin.

Whether it is the seemingly cordial princesses or a few princes and princes, this is the case.

All the gentleness and friendliness of the royal family are all illusions.

At this moment, Mu Cang suddenly wanted to know.

At this moment, if he suddenly shows a majestic power that is enough to destroy the city and destroy the state.

How will this group of so-called royals, who are intoxicated with illusory power, react?

I really want to know.

In fact, as the body and soul grow stronger.

Deep down in Mu Cang's heart, there was no way to treat these mortals who could be broken at the touch of his own kind.

Now, he treats everything in front of him more as a game of red dust.

When you get tired of playing one day, you can destroy it.

At this time, Emperor Xia, who was supported by the inner hall of the imperial palace attendants, slowly sat down on the dragon chair.

The old emperor raised his hand and patted it gently.

"Papapa~"

Suddenly, the entire Zhaoyang Hall fell silent.

The princes and princesses all walked into their square tables and sat down quietly.

Many court attendants began to serve dishes with their hands and feet.

Everyone's square table was quickly filled with a variety of exquisite dishes.

Emperor Xia, who is located at the head of the hall, said:

"I summoned you here this time, but there is nothing else to do, just to ...... Elect the crown prince. ”

As soon as this remark came out.

Suddenly, the atmosphere of the entire hall changed dramatically.

Marquis Zunshuo, Marquis Wu'an, and Marquis Xuanping were all shocked, and their pupils were full of brilliance.

The four princes and the six princes are like this, and they can't help but stiffen their hands and feet, and their eyes show yearning slightly.

Only a few princesses were calmer, but their eyes quickly glanced at the princes.

Quietly glancing at Mu Cang, whose expression had not changed throughout the whole process, Emperor Xia turned his head and said softly:

"O repentance, you can begin."

Still dressed in a black robe, the monk walked out of the rear quietly.

First, he bent down towards the old emperor and folded his feet.

Then he turned around and looked at all the princes present.

The gaze narrowly passed over them, and looked farther away.

"I'll explain."

Emperor Xia's expression was indifferent, "You all already know about the revival of aura."

Nowadays, times have begun to change, and the old rules and order may no longer be suitable for the new era.

That's why I want to choose the most suitable prince for the new era."

Without waiting for an answer, he continued:

"This person beside me is the Master of Pure Repentance, the person with the highest life skill in the entire Great Xia......"

After a rough description of the ability to purify repentance, Emperor Xia said:

"So this time, it's up to him to give you orders and criticism.

I will choose the most suitable candidate for the crown prince according to the comments. ”

Wow~~

The hearts of all the princes and princes suddenly shook.

Although the table was full of delicious food, no one put their minds on it.

They all looked at the repentant monk who was walking slowly.

"Amitabha~"

Jing Penitent clasped his hands together, first walked to the table of the six princes, slowly sat cross-legged on the ground, and stared at each other expressionlessly.

The sixth prince was furious by the old monk, and couldn't help but open his mouth and stumble: "Master, I ...... me"

Pure Repentance's eyes suddenly shone brightly, and the spiritual fluctuations that seemed to be substantial instantly lingered and covered the entire Zhaoyang Palace.

Then, the old monk took the remnants of the Dao with both hands, pinched out one seal after another, and at the same time began to recite the mysterious and unspeakable incantation in his mouth.

These incantations sound solemn and ancient, mysterious and terrifying.

With each of his incantations, the air seemed to be imprisoned, making people breathless.

And the princes and princesses sitting around obviously didn't understand.

But I feel that the meaning of the words and sentences is drilling into my head arrogantly.

The gist is: at the cost of one's life, pray to the Heavenly Way to gain the power to see one's destiny clearly.

This doubling of the mysterious experience made the princes' contempt for repentance completely disappear.
