Chapter 424: The Battle for the Throne
"Lianhai, is this really appropriate?"
After the 50,000 army received Qiu Fengcheng's message, the eldest prince immediately waved his army to rescue Phantom City, but the eldest prince did not realize the severity of the matter. It wasn't until he met Lord Li on the way that the eldest prince understood the shape of the Phantom City. It's just that their speed has slowed down a lot, and by the time they got the specific news, the third prince had already led the army into Phantom City, and Shun took over the command of the 30,000 garrison from Qiu Fengcheng's hands.
"Great Prince, you can't hesitate any longer, once you and the Third Prince fall into a dead end, it will not be a good thing for us and Ling Xiao Kingdom. Seeing that the eldest prince was a little hesitant, Bei Lianhai hurriedly explained: "Great prince, you think, once we fight against the three princes outside the city, countless people will inevitably be implicated and choose to take sides, and there will be countless people involved in it at that time, even if we win in the end, it can only be a residual victory, not to mention other countries in the region, even the Shura country outside the territory will not let go of this great opportunity to annex us." ”
"I understand what you're saying. The eldest prince sighed faintly: "It's just that the relationship between me and the third brother has always been good, but now we are going to take the throne and meet each other." ”
"The eldest prince, at least after you get the throne, you can give the third prince a place to live. But once the third prince gets the throne, those who follow the eldest prince are afraid that it will be difficult to even have a good death. Seeing that the eldest prince was shaken, Bei Lianhai eagerly continued to add fuel and vinegar: "As long as the eldest prince takes advantage of the fact that the third prince has not yet gained a firm foothold to attack the Phantom City in one fell swoop, and then enters the inner city in the name of sweeping away rebellion, I believe that no one will have anything to say." ”
The second prince conspired to usurp the throne, and the eldest prince led the troops to rescue, which is indeed a very suitable excuse. And Bei Lianhai has already thought of how to use the second prince to make a fuss for the eldest prince in the future.
"Great Prince, you can't hesitate any longer. ”
When the army approached the Phantom City, the demon beasts in the city barked wildly, and the restless roar of the demon beasts made even the war horses of the city gate army uneasy, and the running kicking sound was no longer as calm and powerful as before.
"Lianhai, have you ordered someone to attract the demon beast?" the eldest prince looked at Bei Lianhai uncertainly. Half of the demon beasts in the Phantom City are from the hands of the Royal Beast Clan, and in terms of demon beasts, no one can compete with the Royal Beast Clan. Now that there are monsters and beasts in the city, except for the Royal Beast Clan, the eldest prince can't think of any other explanation.
Bei Lianhai hesitated for a moment and nodded. According to his understanding of the eldest prince, it is very likely that the eldest prince will confront the third prince outside the city, which is a situation that no one wants to see. Therefore, after Bei Lianhai got the news from Lord Li, he had already ordered people to infiltrate the Phantom City, preparing to launch a demonic beast to break through the city gate when the army returned, so that the 50,000 army could enter the Phantom City without much effort.
"Well, give the order to go down and prepare to enter the city. The eldest prince rode on his horse and looked at the guards around him, these people stared intently at the Phantom City one by one, their weapons were already hungry and thirsty, just waiting to rush into the city and tear apart the enemies who dared to stop him.
The eldest prince sighed, the matter has come to this, even if the third prince inherits the throne in the future, he will not believe that Bei Lianhai launched a demon beast attack on the city without his knowledge. After the order was given, the eldest prince quietly wiped the beads of sweat from his palm, and at this time, he couldn't let people see that he was nervous.
......
"Qin Zhen, do you want me to go out of the mountain?" In the cave where Qin Zhen was, an old man with white hair looked at Qin Zhen and played with taste: "Aren't you afraid that Old Qin will know?"
"I'm afraid. Qin Zhen nodded, and then said coldly: "But I'm more afraid of failure." Failure means that I have completely lost my value to the old man, and a person who has no value can't be the head of the family at all, so I can only come to you. As long as the Four Spirit Demon Lords are willing to make a move, I will have my own rewards in the future. ”
"I'm curious, why are you so concerned about the Lingxiao Kingdom outside the territory, you must know that the national strength of the Shura Kingdom is not inferior to the Lingxiao Kingdom, and even the lord of the Xiu Kingdom is far more stupid than the so-called second prince, isn't it easier for such a person to be accused by you?"
The eyes of the Four Spirit Demon Lords were almost narrowed into a slit, and his reddish-brown eyeballs were appropriately hidden by his eyelids.
"I need something from the Beast Clan, and they're not going to hand it over. Qin Zhen thought about it, but decided to tell the truth. Although the Four Spirits Dao Monarch narrowed his eyes, Qin Zhen's heartbeat was beating more and more strangely at this moment, as if his every move could not escape the grasp of the Four Spirits Dao Monarch.
"Demon Beast Horn?" The Four Spirit Dao Monarch's eyelids opened again, nodded with a smile, and said, "Indeed, the current Demon Beast Horn is indeed a good magic weapon for you. As he spoke, a hint of coldness flashed in the smile of the Four Spirit Dao Monarchs, and his voice became terrifying: "It's just that you still have something to hide." ”
"I also want to provoke a war inside and outside the region. Qin Zhen's face changed, and his cold aura flashed with a hint of panic, he was still too tender in front of the Four Spirit Dao Monarchs. However, Qin Zhen's reaction was very fast, and he immediately remedied it before the Four Spirit Dao Monarchs turned their faces: "Later, the three major sects will have a battle of the inner gates, which invisibly weakens the forces in the domain. As long as the extraterritorial countries take this opportunity to start a war, they will definitely achieve unexpected results in a short time. ”
"It turns out that your boy's ambition is not just to be a head of the family. ”
The Four Spirits Dao Monarch laughed, this laughter made Qin Zhen very annoying, especially the ridicule that the Four Spirits Dao Monarch saw through and said made Qin Zhen feel murderous, but Qin Zhen's cold appearance was very good at covering up the killing machine. Now is not the time to turn his face with the Four Spirits Dao Monarch, once his heart is seen through by the Four Spirits Dao Monarch, the purpose of his trip is only afraid that not only will he be urged, but even people will be pinched to death by the Four Spirits Demon Monarch.
The Four Spirits Demon Monarch, the junior disciple of the Three Calamity Dao Monarchs, is a dangerous person that even Old Master Qin is afraid of.
"I promise to help you. The Four Spirits Dao Monarch really didn't seem to see Qin Zhen's flashing killing machine, but happily agreed.
"What conditions do you have?" Qin Zhen asked.
"I don't want your monster horn, I don't want the broken copper and iron of Lingxiao Country, and I don't want to stop your ambitions. The Four Spirits Dao Monarch smiled, "As long as you buy the Fire Phoenix Essence of the Three Calamities Dao Monarch in a week's sale." ”
"Only that simple?" Qin Zhen had already estimated the maximum concession he could make in his heart, and even included some of the Qin family's interests. But the conditions of the Four Spirit Dao Monarch greatly exceeded his expectations in his heart, because this seemed to be a very easy task.
Since it is a special sale, then this means that the essence of the fire phoenix is a trading item, as long as it is an item, it has value, which is precisely his biggest and best advantage, so Qin Zhen is rarely puzzled.
"Is it simple?" the Four Spirits Dao Monarch smiled strangely: "It's up to you to judge whether it's simple or not." "Let's say it, the Four Spirits Dao Jun stood up from the futon in the cave and said, "Let's go, otherwise your abacus will be in vain." ”
The Four Spirits Dao Monarch stood up to highlight the weakness of his lack of height, he was a head shorter than Qin Zhen, and the unpleasant smell of his hair penetrated Qin Zhen's nostrils in bursts.
At this moment, Qin Zhen didn't have the heart to pay attention to the ragged clothes of the Four Spirit Dao Monarchs and the unpleasant smell on his body, he just wanted to hurry back to Lingxiao Country so as to prevent Ji Chen and the people of the three major sects from sabotaging his plan.
......
"Don't let the demon beasts knock the city gate open, otherwise the army outside the city will break into the city at any time. ”
When Li Daoxin spoke, Ji Chen had already flown to stop several rampaging demon beasts, and he didn't need Li Daoxin's reminder to know what the Royal Beast Clan wanted to do. It doesn't matter to Ji Chen who is the prince, but now he has a good relationship with the three princes, and the people of the three major sects are temporarily living in the inner city to cultivate, even for the sake of these, he also has to contribute some efforts for the three princes.
The attack power of a few rough-skinned and thick-skinned demon beasts was not violent, Ji Chen effortlessly cleaned up a few demon beasts, and then he flew quickly towards the inner city.
"Ji Chen, what are you going to do?" Li Daoxin raised his head and shouted at the sky. At first, he thought that Ji Chen was going out of the city to check the situation, but when he saw the direction in which Ji Chen flew to the inner city, he asked in confusion.
"Give back to the other in his way. ”
Li Daoxin thought for a while, and soon understood Ji Chen's thoughts. Using demon beasts to control demon beasts is indeed the best way to solve the current predicament.
And Ji Chen's side happened to have a colorful beast on the fierce beast list.
Since entering the palace, the colorful beast has quietly transformed into a human form, and while eating the food of Lingxiao Kingdom, it is not roaring at the sky. The days of leaving the secret realm were so beautiful, even the sounds of demon beasts all over the city sounded so kind.
"Poof. ”
An apple slammed into the head of the colorful beast, and the guy roared fiercely: "Which one doesn't open his eyes to smash Lao Tzu? Believe it or not, Lao Tzu sucked you dry...... It's Ji Chen, don't throw things next time, I'll smash it if I have rough skin and thick flesh, if I hit those fragile palace maids in the inner city, I'm afraid that you will have another life debt. ”
"Less nonsense. Ji Chen couldn't cry or laugh, and glared fiercely at the colorful beast that turned into a humanoid and wore a blue robe and looked at some sunlight: "Is there any way to make these demon beasts in the city quiet?"
"Quiet, what do you mean?" the colorful beast said with wide eyes, "You don't want me to kill these monsters, do you?"
"Of course not, am I that cruel?" Ji Chen glanced at the colorful beast and said, "It's just for you to find a way to calm them down." ”
"That's it? It's so easy. The colorful beast squinted at Ji Chen, he couldn't understand how Ji Chen, who had always been smart, couldn't even solve this little thing. However, when he heard Ji Chen ask for help, a sense of accomplishment instantly surged in the heart of the colorful beast.
The human race is really useless, and even a group of small demon beasts can't solve it.
