Chapter 240: Twists and Turns Again
Xiao Xiao's victory and becoming the Emperor of Shenwu was expected, and it was also something that some people with a heart did not expect.
Each side of the forces carefully planned, but in the end, it was still a bamboo basket to draw water, and it was in vain.
This made some people very dissatisfied with Xiao Xiao becoming the Emperor of Shenwu, of course, now that it has become a fact, naturally they will not risk the Heavenly Martial Artist to do something that is not violated.
Of course, among them, the Nangong family is the most hated one for Xiao Xiao to call the emperor, because Xiao Xiao's throne was trampled on his son-in-law of the Nangong family.
Although he hated Xiao Xiao very much at the moment, the people of the Nangong family had to do enough superficial work, and even looked harmonious on the surface.
However, the ancient royal family Gu clan did not give Xiao Xiao a look at the face, originally the Gu clan thought that in the current situation, it was a better choice for them to turn the tide and save the overall situation.
Originally, before the ancient royal family decided to establish a country by force in the eight major cities, the Gu clan had sent lobbyists to encourage the strength of the other eight major cities to serve the people of their ancient royal family to re-ascend the throne.
However, the people of the ancient royal family have always had their eyes above the top, even if they are lobbyists, their eyes are on the top of their heads, and they are not lobbying at all, but as if they are informing.
This has secretly angered many forces, such as today's chaos, even if the ancient royal family is powerful, but they do not dare to start a civil war in vain.
What's more, although the ancient royal family is mysterious and powerful, the power of the eight major cities, how can it be an ordinary family, when facing the ancient royal family, although it will not offend the other party on the surface, but in private it does not take what the other party says to heart.
The defeat of the ancient royal family, so the Gu clan has a grudge against many forces, as long as they catch the opportunity, they will naturally fall to the ground.
When the people of the ancient royal family saw Xiao Xiao become the new lord of the Shenwu Empire, the people of the Gu clan scoffed at him and didn't take Xiao Xiao to heart at all.
"What kind of strength is proud, I have the life to sit in this position, I'm afraid I don't have the life to feel, some people are not born to sit in this position!"
Gu Santong saw Xiao Xiao in high spirits, and his heart was not happy, wasn't it originally their Gu clan to deal with all this?
How did the kid in front of him take it.
If he was not angry with Xiao Xiao's good luck, he naturally didn't have a good face for Xiao Xiao, and not only that, but he also said the above words viciously.
Others were afraid of Xiao Xiao, the newly promoted Shenwu Emperor, but their ancient royal family did not take Xiao Xiao seriously at all.
Therefore, when the Nangong family entrusted Xiao Xiao with a false snake, the Gu family not only looked down on the Nangong family, but even Xiao Xiao made fun of it.
did not put Xiao Xiao, the Shenwu Emperor, in his eyes at all.
Xiao Xiao naturally heard Gu Santong's words, and there was no discoloration on his face, not only that, but he also had no intention of arguing.
Just a weird smile on his face!
If people who are familiar with Xiao Xiao know that once Xiao Xiao shows this kind of smile, I am afraid that this person is going to suffer.
"Since this war for the crown prince to establish the country by force is a matter jointly discussed by the eight major cities, now Xiao Xiao is not talented, and he is lucky to win a move and a half and ascend to the throne of this emperor.
But I don't understand, it's obviously the eight major cities that are participating in the same grand event, and now this Gu clan people don't take me as the lord of the country in their eyes, and even dangerous to me, I don't think it's better to be this Shenwu Emperor. I think the Gu family is the most suitable for the royal family. ”
Seeing Xiao Xiao propose this, Gu Santong was pleasantly surprised in his heart, and said secretly: This kid also knows the power of our ancient royal family, and it seems that the threatening words just now have an effect!"
However, Gu Santong was not overjoyed, coughed twice, and said in a positive voice: "You really think so?"
Xiao Xiao sighed secretly in his heart, people like Gu Santong have been completely blinded by all their strength, and his words just now are meant to shirk on the surface, but in fact, they are retreating as advances.
The first thing to talk about: the joint decision of the eight major cities.
This sentence has already drawn several other families to their own front, at least on the surface, after all, no family force would say something scoundrel on such an occasion, so that the eyes of hundreds of thousands of martial artists in the arena are nearly a million.
Once a martial arts family loses its integrity, in this case, it is equivalent to losing the heart of a martial artist, and it will become very difficult for the family to recruit talents in the future.
What's more important is that Xiao Xiao uses Yang Mou, even if the people of the eight major cities all agree with what Xiao Xiao just said, but hundreds of thousands of martial artists will not agree.
The position of the king of a country, how can it be child's play, the last moment still decided the new emperor, and determined the year name and the date of the new emperor's accession to the throne, and the new emperor who was about to ascend the throne was abolished in a moment.
Isn't this a slap in the face in front of a heavenly warrior?
Only people with extremely strong rights like Gu Santong will be taken into the ditch by Xiao Xiao's words just now.
"Of course I think so, and I also strongly agree with your Gu clan becoming the new emperor of the Shenwu Empire!"
The corners of Xiao Xiao's mouth cracked, revealing a trace of arc, and he wanted to laugh out loud, but he tried his best to restrain himself from the embarrassment of letting himself lose his temper.
"Hahaha, count your kid as acquaintances! See, this kid has become the royal family of the Shenwu Empire under our Gu clan. ”
Gu Santong laughed wildly, looked around, and found that no one echoed him, but looked at him with a strange look, and even some families shook their heads and sighed!
When Gu Santong looked at the juniors of the clan who were originally close behind him, he also kept retreating, as if he wanted to draw a line with him, this behavior was to tell everyone that they and the people in front of them were not in the same group at all, and they didn't know each other.
It's a shame.
However, Gu Santong didn't realize how ridiculous his behavior was, but he couldn't understand the reactions of the people from the major families around him, and even the Gu family he brought with him wanted to stay away from his side.
I was about to ask what's going on?
A majestic voice remembered: "Gu Santong, what should you be, have three-year-old children ever played with every house? This is a decision unanimously passed by our eight major cities, since your Gu clan has not achieved the final victory! This can only be blamed on your juniors! Don't play scoundrels here!"
Dongyan Ancestor really can't look at it, and as the host, he is the only one on the field who has the qualifications to say the ancient three links.
Of course, Xiao Xiao also has this qualification, but the other party does not recognize his identity at all.
Dongyan Old Ancestor said sharply, which immediately made Gu Santong's face red, if it was someone from other families who said him, I am afraid that Gu Santong would pull out his sword and stab him.
However, Dongyan Ancestor is the same generation as his father, and in terms of generation, Gu Santong is still the younger generation of the other party, so he naturally doesn't dare to say more, as if he has been greatly humiliated.
His eyes looked at Xiao Xiao's figure viciously, he didn't dare to trouble Dongyan Ancestor, but all this was caused by Xiao Xiao, and he instantly attributed all this to Xiao Xiao.
"Okay! Xiao Xiao, you are now the Emperor of Shenwu, and it has always been decided by our eight major cities, don't joke about this identity, although I don't know what others think, but our Dongyan family will do what they say and do what they say! As long as you have any difficulties, our Dongyan family will naturally do their best. ”
Dongyan Ancestor said, looking domineering, and in this case, he still showed his attitude.
"Thank you to the old patriarch of Dongyan! Xiao Xiao He De how can he take on this great responsibility, I am very panicked! But Xiao Xiao also has a strong temper, since someone doesn't want me to be, I want to try instead!"
When Xiao Xiao said the word 'someone', his tone was particularly serious, and he looked at Gu Santong and said.
It's like Xiao Xiao's words, just for the sake of the ancient three links.
"Stinky boy, what are you looking at?"
Gu Santong didn't want to make his momentum weaker than the other party, so he naturally wanted to overwhelm the other party with his tone on the surface.
"Gu Santong, originally I couldn't embarrass your ancient royal family, it's not that I, Xiao Xiao, am afraid of your ancient royal family, since you think I'm not suitable for this position, then I'll Xiao Xiao want to test how great your Gu clan is. Since I am a country based on martial arts, I Xiao Xiao is still in this ring today, as long as any of you Gu clan wins against me, I will withdraw by myself and never compete for the position of Emperor Shenwu. ”
Xiao Xiao said that after that, his face became more and more majestic, and he didn't take the people of the ancient royal family in his eyes at all, and even wanted to single-handedly take on the entire ancient royal family.
"Is that true?"
Gu Santong's original dead heart immediately came alive again.
If Xiao Xiao won the game, the Gu clan would naturally have a reason to ascend to the throne of Emperor Shenwu, but looking at Xiao Xiao's eyes and rigorous complexion, it didn't look like he was joking.
"Naturally, take it seriously! I Xiao Xiao can say it in front of the heroes of heaven, how can I go back on my word, then what face will I have to stand on heaven and earth in the future. ”
Xiao Xiao climbed with momentum, and when he said this, his whole body was like a rainbow, and every word he said, every word spread to the ears of everyone in the arena.
"Have you heard, this kid is trying to defeat our entire ancient royal family by himself, do I say that you are courageous, or are you stupid?"
Gu Santong finally got back the face he had lost just now, seeing Xiao Xiao's stupid behavior, how could he not laugh.
"You don't need a big family or a small family, I will wait for you in this ring for three days, you can now summon your family, of course, you can also go to the ring and fight with me, as long as you win, you are the person who has contributed the most to the Gu family." ”
Xiao Xiao actually tried his best to persuade him.
For fear that the other party would agree to him, this made the Tianfang Ye Clan, the Zhushui Clan and other families who had a very good relationship with Xiao Xiao also show doubts, and they didn't know what Xiao Xiao's intentions were.
Relying on his own strength to challenge the master of the entire family of the ancient royal family, such a move is not crazy, I am afraid that the entire Dragon Teng Continent, as long as Xiao Xiao can have such a heroic act.
