At this time, Lu Lan was very surprised.

Originally, after hearing those rumors, he thought that the current saint's condition was very serious, so that the situation of Huo Wuxuan and Huo Wuliang's competition for the throne became more and more serious.

As a result, Huo Wuxuan didn't even think about snatching the throne, but wanted his father to continue to sit in that position?

Seeing the surprised expression on Lu Lan's face, Huo Wuxuan also knew what was in his heart now, so he asked with a smile:

"How? Do you not believe what this king said? ”

Huo Wuxuan's words just now, I am afraid that whoever comes will not believe it.

After all, in history, it is not uncommon for fathers and sons to kill each other in order to compete for the throne.

"What His Highness said, I naturally believe it."

Lu Lan said: "However, can Your Highness tell me the reason?" ”

"The reason is simple."

Huo Wuxuan said lightly:

"The fifth brother of this king...... There is a problem. ”

Huo Wuliang?

Lu Lan's heart sank.

It seems that he will soon be exposed to some hidden secrets of the royal family.

At the mention of this, Huo Wuxuan's face also began to become solemn:

"Originally, the fifth brother didn't have much desire for such a thing as fighting for imperial power."

"His greatest wish is that one day he can wear battle armor and personally go to the battlefield to command the army to fight."

"But since he went to Evil Flame Mountain seven years ago, he's started to change completely since he came back."

Evil Flame Mountain?

Lu Lan's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Sounds like this is the territory of the Evil Flame Gate?"

"Yes, this place is really weird."

Huo Wuxuan nodded and said:

"I don't know if Gongzi Lu has heard of it, many years ago, there were actually only three major sects in the Great Martial Kingdom."

"They are the Hundred Refining Heavenly Mansion, the Xuanyang Pavilion, and the Yunhan Sect."

"But later, I heard that the ancestor of the Evil Flame Gate went to the Evil Flame Mountain and got some kind of opportunity, so he founded the Evil Flame Gate."

"Subsequently, the Evil Flame Sect suddenly began to grow, and it continued to develop at a terrifying speed until it successively surpassed the three major sects and became the first sect of the Great Martial Kingdom."

"In just about a hundred years, it has surpassed the three major sects with a history of thousands of years......"

Huo Wuxuan took a sip of tea, his eyes narrowed slightly:

"Lu Gongzi must also think that the Evil Flame Gate is strange, right?"

After listening to Huo Wuxuan's narration, Lu Lan also took a sip of tea, and after pondering for a while, he nodded.

However, the experience of gathering cave mountains and the "heavenly god" of the Hehuan Sect made him think more.

On the Evil Flame Mountain, will there also be a so-called "Heavenly God"?

If that's the case, then it's a bit of a problem.

"At first, in order to put an end to the existence of all forces that threaten the status of the Dawu Imperial Family, we had to suppress their development."

Huo Wuxuan didn't shy away from it:

"But because the Evil Flame Gate is developing too fast, it is not a good plan to use force to deter."

"So while we were dealing with the Evil Flame Gate, we secretly sent people to the Evil Flame Mountain to investigate."

"But no matter who is sent, there is no return."

Speaking of this, Huo Wuxuan sighed:

"This also confirms our suspicion of the Evil Flame Gate."

"It's just that we have never been able to attack the Evil Flame Gate."

"If a conflict does break out, it will only hurt both sides."

"Later, the fifth brother volunteered and decided to lead dozens of elites to secretly go to the Evil Flame Mountain."

"Once he finds anything strange about Evil Flame Mountain, he will not hesitate to destroy it."

"After that, he came back alive, but the whole person changed."

Huo Wuxuan sighed heavily again.

The rest of the story is simpler.

Those elites didn't come back with Huo Wuliang...... According to Huo Wuliang, he died in Evil Flame Mountain, and he survived the breakthrough.

It hasn't been a few months since he returned.

Their father suddenly fell seriously ill, and the three imperial doctors were helpless.

In desperation, their father had no choice but to cede the imperial power, let Huo Wuxuan start to handle any major affairs in the palace for him, and gradually took over some important powers.

And yet it was then.

Huo Wuliang suddenly jumped out, attracted a group of forces in the imperial palace, and began to compete with Huo Wuxuan for imperial power.

At that time, Huo Wuxuan noticed that every time he acted, there seemed to be the shadow of the Evil Flame Gate behind him.

In order to fight against the Evil Flame Gate, Huo Wuxuan also co-opted the Hundred Refining Heavenly Mansion and the Xuanyang Pavilion.

Yun Han Sect also tried to win over him a few times, but failed.

This situation has been maintained until now.

After listening to the rest of the story, Lu Lan thought for a moment and asked:

"Then His Highness asked me to treat the emperor, can I solve the current situation?"

Huo Wuxuan shook his head and said:

"I don't say that it can be solved, but at least it should allow the group of people in the Imperial Palace who have taken refuge in the fifth brother to return to their father's command."

"Although this king has temporarily controlled them, they are still very unconvinced by this king in their hearts, and only when their father is healed can they be ordered to return to their hearts."

Hearing this, Lu Lan nodded.

For those people, only by allowing the current saint to completely heal can it be possible for them to return to the command of the Dawu Imperial Family.

In this way, the Great Martial Imperial Family, which has the support of the Hundred Refining Heavenly Mansion and the Xuanyang Pavilion, will no longer have to worry about what huge losses will be caused to them after launching a general attack on the Evil Flame Gate.

"Then can Your Highness inform me of the specific situation of the emperor's body?"

Huo Wuxuan told Lu Lan about the emperor's recent physical condition.

Then he added:

"But I hope that Lu Gongzi had better go and see it in person."

For an illness that the three major imperial doctors couldn't solve by themselves, Huo Wuxuan naturally didn't think that just relaying it would allow Lu Lan to fully understand this strange illness.

At this time, Lu Lan suddenly remembered that Imperial Doctor Li, and told Huo Wuxuan about him following Huo Wuliang to Yunhan Sect to try to "treat" Luo Manhan.

"Huh? There is such a thing?! ”

Huo Wuxuan's eyes suddenly flashed with a fierce glint.

Obviously, even he didn't know about such a thing.

"Maybe the emperor suddenly fell seriously ill, and Imperial Doctor Li is very likely to know the reason."

The corners of Lu Lan's mouth slanted, and he said with a smile: "Your Highness can try to interrogate Imperial Doctor Li when you go back." ”

"Hahaha, good! Lu Gongzi's news is really timely! ”

Huo Wuxuan raised the teacup in his hand and touched it with Lu Lan:

"This king will replace wine with tea and toast Lu Gongzi with a cup!"

After a cup of tea, Huo Wuxuan suddenly spoke again:

"But in addition to this matter, this king needs to get rid of Lu Gongzi for another thing."

"Your Highness, please speak." Lu Lan said.

"Although our Dawu Imperial Family is the organizer of the Hundred Sects Ranked Battle, we don't want to give the reward of the first place to the Evil Flame Gate for a long time."

Therefore, the king wants to ...... You can win the first place in this year's 100 Sect Ranking Battle and let them return defeated! ”
