Chapter 109: The Danger of Longevity
While the two were talking, Ace was also constantly observing Tang Xiao, seeing that Tang Xiao did not have the slightest flattery after learning his identity, and was calm and calm, neither humble nor arrogant, and there was an essential difference between him and those nobles in the Heavenly Spirit Empire who only knew how to tie up their superiors, and he couldn't help but secretly admire it.
This kind of atmosphere and backbone leaking from his bones makes Ace sure that this Tang Xiao is definitely a genius child of a large family.
After all, thinking that Tang Xiao, a powerhouse like Tang Xiao, who could kill two people at the same time with a mere desolate vein, was completely unequal in terms of cultivation and strength, and he was definitely ranked at the top of the entire Heavenly Spirit Empire. I'm afraid that only a few peerless geniuses in the royal family can stand shoulder to shoulder with it.
In this way, the two chatted for a long time, and Ace's injury was also recovered by the effect of the elixir, and he was no longer in any serious trouble, and he could walk freely.
Seeing that his injuries had recovered, Ace stood up and said to Tang Xiao: "Brother Tang Xiao, now there is an earth-shattering event in the imperial city, I must hurry home quickly, I don't know if Brother Tang Xiao is willing to go with me and go to my house as a guest, let me thank you for saving my life!"
"Oh, what's the big deal?" Although Tang Xiao thought that he would not have time to follow Ace to the Imperial City for a walk, a sense of curiosity arose from the bottom of his heart, and, for some reason, he felt that this important event seemed to be related to him, and it was precisely because of this indescribable subtle feeling that Tang Xiao couldn't help but ask Ace.
"Such a big thing, Brother Tang Xiao, you don't know?" Ace looked at Tang Xiao a little strangely, and then immediately relieved.
In Ace's eyes, Tang Xiao must be the top genius of the big family, just like himself, he came out to experience alone, otherwise it would be absolutely impossible to kill two powerhouses of the Xuanjing Realm so easily under the cultivation of the Nine Layers of the Desolate Vein.
And in Ace's memory, it seems that in the Heavenly Spirit Empire, there is no genius such as Tang Xiao at all, presumably Tang Xiao is from those hidden families who can't escape from the world, and such a powerful family is definitely not a minority on the mainland.
I don't know how many powerful forces in history, because they inadvertently angered some powerful hidden families, they disappeared in an instant and disappeared in the long river of history, and Tang Xiao, in the eyes of Ace, is obviously such a being.
And those children of the hidden family, because they have been hiding from the world for a long time, they will be somewhat ignorant of the news and the information on the mainland, which explains why Tang Xiao didn't know about this big thing.
Then, Ace's face condensed slightly, and he said to Tang Xiao with some sternness: "The crown prince of the Heavenly Spirit Empire was seriously ill a few months ago, unconscious, and in danger. ”
What the!
Hearing this news, the nerves in Tang Xiao's brain trembled suddenly, his eyes suddenly became fierce, and he suddenly looked up at Ace.
"Is Master Zuo in danger?"
You know, isn't the crown prince of the Heavenly Spirit Empire the same as Zuo Shi Shuwei?
Although Zuo Shi Shuwei didn't get along with Tang Xiao for a long time, he helped himself many times and saved his life, just with that Tissot talisman, he could easily buy half of Haiyun County.
Tang Xiao, who was a child in Dijie Town, has already seen the warmth and coldness of the world, if it weren't for his own adventures and efforts, I'm afraid that their father and son would have died, and Zuo Shi Shuwei is the first person who really cares about himself and really intersects with himself.
And Ace, who was facing Tang Xiao, felt that Tang Xiao's momentum seemed to burst out suddenly, as if there was an angry beast, staring at him, making his backbone feel a chill.
"That's right, it's Zuo Shi Shuwei!"
Although he was a little surprised by Tang Xiao's changes, Ace was not a talkative person, so he could only tell Tang Xiao about Zuo Shi's critical illness.
It turned out that after Zuo Shi Shuwei and Fu Bo left the ruins, and then went to the Fire Ape Tribe, they returned directly to the Imperial City.
But in this seemingly peaceful imperial city, five months ago, a major event suddenly happened that shocked the whole country, that is, as the crown prince, Zuo Shi Shuwei, fell unconscious overnight, no one knew what was going on, and even Fu Bo, who was inseparable from Zuo Shi Shuwei, did not notice it at all.
You must know that Zuo Shi Shuwei is the crown prince of the current dynasty and a candidate for the emperor, and if he attacks Zuo Shi Shuwei, that is to attack the future emperor, such an act immediately made the entire Heavenly Spirit Empire angry, and someone immediately pointed the finger at the second prince Zuo Shi Huanyu, and the rumor said that it was Zuo Shi Huanyu's poisonous hand, but because there was no evidence, he was puzzled.
But the rumor that it was Zuo Shi Huanyu who attacked Zuo Shi Shuwei is definitely not groundless, you must know that the competition between the two for the throne is no longer a secret.
For a while, there was a dark tide surging in the imperial city, and people speculated whether the final battle between the crown prince Zuo Shi Shuwei and the second prince Zuo Shi Huanyu had come, and the people were panicked, for fear that they would stand on the wrong team and fall into the abyss of no return.
But no matter how fierce the battle of the royal family is, the royal family attaches great importance to Zuo Shi Shuwei's illness.
On the second day of Zuo Shi Shuwei's coma, Master Banna, the only fifth-level condensation master in the Heavenly Spirit Empire, conducted a comprehensive examination of Zuo Shi Shuwei, but what was shocking was that even the fifth-level condensation master Banna couldn't find out why Zuo Shi Shuwei was in a coma. He can only take some life-sustaining pills to alleviate his condition.
But as the days passed, Zuo Shi Shuwei's situation became worse and worse, his breath became weaker and weaker, and even the cultivation of the Earth Xuan Realm was not enough to support the maintenance of life, and he saw that his life was not long in coming.
There is no way, the royal family of the Heavenly Spirit Empire has no choice but to distribute hero stickers and recruit strange people in the world, as long as they can save Zuo Shi Shuwei, they will be allowed to choose any three treasures in the treasure house of the royal family of the Heavenly Spirit Empire.
As soon as this news came out, the entire Heavenly Spirit Empire suddenly became boiling, this is an empire that has been inherited for thousands of years! Although Tang Xiao knew that the Heavenly Spirit Empire was still insignificant compared to the entire continent, but for the current area, the treasure house of the Heavenly Spirit Empire was definitely a treasure trove that made everyone crazy!
As a result, all the big families of the entire Heavenly Spirit Empire began to collect all kinds of strange hermits, hoping to cure Zuo Shi Shuwei's illness by luck, so as to obtain the three treasures in the treasure house of the Heavenly Spirit Empire, so that the family would inevitably soar into the sky. And after Zuo Shi Shuwei's victory in the struggle with the second prince, then he saved the emperor of the Heavenly Spirit Empire!
With such a huge temptation, how can people not be attracted to it. And the reason why Ace was in a hurry to rush back to the imperial city was precisely for this reason, at this extremely special time, the storm in the imperial city was coming, which really made him feel at ease.
After listening to Ace's story, Tang Xiao gradually calmed down from his anger and thought calmly.
Tang Xiao knew in his heart that this time the matter was definitely not just as simple as the battle between Zuo Shi Shuwei and Zuo Shi Huanyu, because behind Zuo Shi Huanyu, it was likely that there was the support of the Chaos Palace.
Such a behemoth, although it is in a remote place on this continent, must also have a lot of minions, after all, Gu Baliang said, unlike other top forces, the power of the Chaos Hall has spread to almost every corner of the continent, no matter how remote and dangerous, there are their existences.
"It seems that the matter of the Demon Vein Academy is still going to be put aside......"
Thinking of this, Tang Xiao couldn't help but be very worried about the safety of Zuo Shi Shuwei, sighed secretly, and said to Ace: "Since Brother Ace sincerely invited, then Tang Xiao would be respectful and obey his fate, and follow Brother Ace to the Imperial City for a long time!"
Originally fancy Tang Xiao's talent, and has a life-saving grace for himself, Ace has long had the intention of wooing Tang Xiao, after hearing Tang Xiao's words, he was also happy in his heart, and immediately agreed, the two of them were anxious to go to the imperial city at this time, and then immediately set off and galloped in the direction of the imperial city.
