Seeing that both of us had gathered our fighting spirit, all the audience held their breath and looked at us without blinking, for fear of missing the wonderful shot!
Seeing that the other party had no intention of attacking first, I smiled slightly and said coldly: "What? Don't you want to attack first?"
Kachusha smiled proudly and said coldly: "If you have the ability, just attack me. If you want to tempt me to take action first, don't even think about it!"
He nodded slightly, and I knew... He wanted to stop calmly, trying to beat my sword first, and then compete with me carefully, because... As long as he beat me once, the second prince would lose!
Gritting his teeth fiercely, since he gave up the attack, it is more suitable for me. I want to see if he can support it when my evil king flashes!
Having made up my mind, I took a quick step forward, and at the same time... the Evil God Slash in my right hand swept out from under my left tuck, and a scarlet light wave quickly spread out from the blade, forming a fan-shaped fan-shaped blade, similar to a disc. The wave of fighting spirit!
boom!
With a loud noise and just a slight contact, Kachusha's body suddenly shook. The scarlet fighting spirit I emitted violently broke through the fighting spirit shield. The raging fighting spirit wave passed through the body, and Kachusha opened his eyes wide. He opened his eyes and knelt on the ground with a look of disbelief, and then... the unconscious body suddenly fell forward.
Boom…
It wasn't until Kachusha's body fell to the ground that my Dou Qi wave finally completely disappeared with a roar. The place of disappearance was already more than a hundred meters away from my current position!
Facing this scene, everyone was stunned. Unexpectedly...Kachusa, with such strength, couldn't even block the opponent's sword. This is too exaggerated!
I gently put the knife on my shoulder, and waved to the fourth prince easily: "Come on, come on, where is the next one? Is there someone with more strength? Such a coward can only deal with those on the streets. Just an artist!"
Facing Leng Mo's domineering sword, Bukenata almost shattered his teeth. As a general, Kachusha is undoubtedly the strongest among Bukenata's men. If he can't block the opponent's sword, then , then others will only be embarrassed if they go up!
Unlike the second prince, everyone under him is his strength and his capital. If the second prince is more trusted by the princes and ministers, then he relies more on the trust of the army and pays more attention to It's a subordinate! A high-ranking great swordsman is undoubtedly a huge asset. Only a fool like the second prince would do it if he lost it in vain!
Thinking of this, the fourth prince suddenly made a decision, walked out of the queue slowly, gave the old emperor a fist, and said in a deep voice: "There is no need to compete anymore, now I believe that the second prince really wants to have an exhibition match, but... all the time It was me who misunderstood!"
Seeing that the fourth prince suddenly surrendered, not only the second prince, but also me was stunned. The other princes and ministers did not think of this, and they all looked at the fourth prince blankly.
Under everyone's gaze, the fourth prince continued without being humble or arrogant: "I also admit that everyone thinks that this game is real and has something to do with me. The news came from me. But if you want to say that I am playing a conspiracy, then... It’s too much, I just really thought that the second child wanted to compete for real, but I misunderstood!”
After a pause, the fourth prince continued: "Father, I know the ins and outs of this matter quite well. If the second brother is not really competing, then the news has already spread all over the city. Why didn't you mention it before the competition? If it is said that the second brother is not a real contest, Knowing this statement, can it be justified? Please ask my father to investigate clearly!"
After hearing what the fourth prince said, the old emperor showed a tired look. Indeed... Almost everyone in the Piaoxiang Empire believed that this game was a real match. They had known about it for half a year. If the second prince had never known it, then no one was willing. I believe it, but if he knew it, then why would he send in a few vulnerable characters? This doesn’t make sense!
Thinking of this, the emperor waved his hand and frowned and said: "Okay, okay, this matter has been revealed. No one is allowed to mention it again. Just treat today's incident as if it didn't happen! No one will be blamed for anything. If you mention this matter, shoot and kill!"
Having said this, the old emperor stood up majestically and said in a deep voice: "Okay, the celebration will continue. Let's continue celebrating. I'm tired and want to go back to the palace to rest..." As he spoke, the ministers opened the way. The old man of the emperor led the ministers and left the sacrificial platform in a grand manner!
Soon, everyone left one by one. The next celebration was moved to Piaoxiang Square in the city. It was meaningless to stay!
Soon, only the second prince and I, as well as the second prince’s entourage, were left on the entire sacrificial platform. I walked gently to the second prince, and I bowed my hands respectfully and said, “Your Majesty, the second prince, what should I do with these three brothers in the venue? ? I have poured out the Yuyuan, look... should I take the fat boy back to the Yuyuan to recover first?"
The second prince looked at me with trembling lips. The regret in his heart was torturing him to death. Looking at the respectful Lie Yan in front of him, he felt regretful in his heart. If Lie Yan had taken action from the beginning, then what would happen to Bu Bu now? Kenata is probably in ruins!
Turning around and looking into the competition arena, the three guys were whimpering and moaning, especially Fatty, who screamed the loudest. In fact, it was no wonder that he had all the bones in his limbs broken and all his ribs broken. He was in such pain that he screamed twice. The sound is also what it should be!
But in the eyes of the second prince, everything was completely different. It was this guy who not only wasted a great opportunity, but also lost his face. If Lie Yan hadn't appeared in time, his life would have been decided. Here, whoever it was, would be jumping up and down in anger!
With a cold snort, the second prince said coldly: "What's the use of such trash? Let him fend for himself! No one is allowed to care about him! Let him die here in pain!"
Nodding respectfully, I continued: "In addition... His Highness the Second Prince, the eldest prince of the Tianmeng Empire sent someone to contact me a few months ago. He invited me to help him there. I see... The Second Prince is here. There are so many talents, and there is no need for a nobody like Lie Yan to get in the way, so... Lie Yan wants to say goodbye!"
ah!
As soon as he heard that Lie Yan was leaving, the second prince immediately panicked. This hateful fat boy was already useless. If Lie Yan left, who could he rely on? Facing the inevitable revenge of the fourth prince, how could he continue to be there? Survive in the imperial capital!
He wanted to keep Lie Yan, but what he did yesterday made it impossible for him to open his mouth again. When it was useful, he would drink and eat, and when it was no longer useful, he would throw it out. Now when he needed someone again, how could he have the nerve to ask for it again
He asked someone to give up Yuyuan, he gave in, he asked him to be a substitute, and he accepted it. Not only did he accept it, but he also had the affection and righteousness to help him when he was in the most difficult and critical moment. If it weren't for Lie Yan, he would have done it. Now he has become 100% a commoner. Under the revenge of the fourth prince, there is no way he can survive tomorrow!
Clenching his teeth fiercely, the second prince knew very well that he could not live without Lie Yan. If he lost him now and faced the ferocious counterattack of the fourth prince, how would he resist it? He had never been at odds with the fourth prince before. , they still cared about each other, but now, the fourth prince will no longer care about anything!
Raising his head suddenly, the second prince looked at me closely and said sincerely: "Lie Yan, what happened in the past was my fault. Here, I apologize to you, but... I hope you won't do it at such a critical moment. Leave me alone, I need your help!"
Why…
There was another sigh, and I shook my head and said: "Your Highness, the Second Prince, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just... that Bukenata has now recruited countless masters, and there are five or six high-ranking great swordsmen alone. With the weak strength of Lie Yan, It is very dangerous to contend with their power. Once attacked by the two of them, Lie Yan will be invincible with three heads and six arms!"
ah!
After hearing my words, the second prince couldn't help but screamed. Although he knew that the fourth prince was very strong, he didn't expect that he would recruit so many masters to help him!
Nodding slightly, I continued: "That's right, the second prince. The three people sent by the fourth prince today are all high-ranking great sword masters. In addition to these three people, there are at least two people who also have high-ranking great sword masters." This is a level that Lie Yan has faced personally!"
After opening his mouth, the second prince grabbed my hand and begged: "Lie Yan, because of this, I can't let you go. Once you leave, I will be completely finished!"
I nodded and said with certainty: "Indeed, I understand that once you set your sights on a certain target, the fourth prince will come to you with his men. If the other party refuses to submit, he will also force the other party not to follow you. So... you will never be able to find men who are strong enough to resist Bukenata!"
Smiling contemptuously, I pointed at the fat boy in the field and said, "This piece of trash is actually a game specially set up by the fourth prince. He was left here to follow you, and then he deliberately sent his superior swordsman to lose to him. Then send these people to participate in the competition to numb your mind, and you have seen the ending now, everything is going as designed by Bukenata!"
After listening to my words, the second prince smiled and nodded continuously: "That's right... I was confused for a moment and fell into the trap of the fourth prince. If it weren't for Brother Lieyan, I would have been ruined by now!"
After a pause, the second prince gritted his teeth and said resolutely: "Don't worry, brother Lieyan, I hope you forget what happened in the past. From now on, I will never do this to you again. If you do it again, you will be punished by heaven and earth!"
Looking at the serious expression on the second prince's face, I laughed secretly in my heart. Actually... how could I leave? Although the second prince is weak, he is the only one in Piaoxiang Empire who can compete with the fourth prince. After all, where is his identity and power? There, no matter what, he was still very popular among the ministers!
With a long sigh, I pretended to be unable to refuse and said: "Your Highness, the Second Prince, since you show your love so much, Lieyan will have no choice but to hand over his life to you. Don't worry, as long as Lieyan lives, he will definitely Don’t let Bukenata overwhelm you, His Royal Highness!”
After listening to my words, the second prince grabbed my hand, squeezed it tightly with joy, and vowed: "Don't worry, I will not treat you badly!"
Smiling slightly, I raised my brows sharply, looked sideways at the fat pig in the field, and said coldly: "Your Highness, Second Prince, for your sake, I didn't care about this fat pig yesterday, but... Since... Since he is no longer under the command of His Highness the Second Prince, then...should I ask him to solve the problem between us?"
Pooh!
The second prince spat in the direction of the fat boy angrily, and said in disgust: "It's all this pig. He's delayed my big things. I really wish I could twitch his tendons and pluck out his skin!"
I smiled cruelly and said: "Lie Yan respectfully respects the second prince's order!"
After hearing my words, the second prince looked at me in shock, not knowing what I meant. Looking at the puzzled expression of the second prince, I chuckled and said: "The wish of the second prince is Lie Yan's code of conduct. Since the second prince The prince wants his skin to be peeled off by cramps, so how dare his subordinates not try their best to do it?"
He looked at me blankly, and the next moment... The second prince looked up to the sky and laughed, patted my shoulder, and shouted happily: "Okay! Having such subordinates is indeed the happiest thing in the world. I really regret it. , why were you deceived by this fat pig!"
Having said this, the second prince looked at me seriously and said, "But... everything is worth it. Although the loss was great this time, I also realized your true value. Not only are you unparalleled in martial arts, but also He is also very resourceful, and most importantly..."
Having said this, the second prince blinked at me and said with a smile: "I found that we are quite compatible. You will do it for me whatever I want to say or think. I swear, from now on, Until I ascend the throne, you will always be my most important brother!"
After hearing what the second prince said, I hurriedly thanked you, and then... I asked again: "Your Highness, the second prince, regarding the matter of Yuyuan, do you want me to move out?"
Looking at me with a wry smile, the second prince looked at me apologetically and said: "Lie Yan, are you still unwilling to let me go? Don't worry... No matter what happens in the future, Jade Garden will always be your personal property. I will never take him back for anything!”
After thanking the second prince gratefully, I turned to the subordinates who were following him and said, "You guys, carry the three guys on the field back to me and heal their injuries!"
After listening to my order, several subordinates looked at the second prince in shock. He had just given the order and no one was allowed to care about these guys.
Seeing several people looking at him, the second prince became furious and roared: "What are you looking at? From now on, you will all be under Lieyan's management. If anyone disobeys the order, Lieyan has the right to kill him at any time!"
Having said this, the second prince looked at me in confusion and said doubtfully: "Brother Lieyan, what do you want with these rubbish?"
With a sinister smile, I said lightly: "They are all injured now. If I torture them now, they will definitely not accept it. I will let them fully recover before I slowly play with them!"
After a pause, I smiled mysteriously and said: "Besides, garbage has its uses. Even if it has to cramp or peel off the skin, it only hurts when they are most awake. Now they have lost 80% of their lives. They feel uncomfortable." How painful it is!”
A cruel and excited light flashed in the second prince's eyes, he chuckled and nodded: "I didn't see it, Brother Lieyan, you are really ruthless!"
Smiling slightly, I turned to the second prince and said, "Your Highness, what happened today will definitely arouse strong revenge from the fourth prince, so I think we should go back quickly and study the strategies to deal with it!"
After hearing my words, the second prince's face darkened, and he nodded in agreement with my point of view, and then... dragging the three moaning garbage, we quickly returned to the second prince's residence!
After taking a sip of tea, I said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, the Second Prince, although I had a certain understanding of you before coming here, those are just rumors from the outside world after all, and many of them are unreliable!"
After a pause, I continued: "Now, since we are in the same boat, then... I hope you can explain the situation between you and the fourth prince in detail, so that I can take targeted action!"
kindness…
The second prince nodded and said: "Basically, the Piaoxiang Empire is now divided into two major factions. One is the bureaucratic faction, which is the various high-ranking officials in the imperial city, such as the minister, and the ministers!"
After thinking for a while, the second prince continued: "As for the other faction, it is the strength faction, such as the generals, guards and other factions that control the military!"
Having said this, the second prince gave a wry smile and continued: "Now, I have basically controlled the bureaucratic faction. More than 80% of the ministers in the palace are more supportive of my ascension to the throne!"
Nodding slightly, I said, "So, the fourth prince should be in control of the powerful faction. I wonder what percentage of the total military faction the military faction following him accounts for?"
Hearing my question, the second prince showed a bitter smile and said helplessly: "More than 80% of the military factions are madly supporting the fourth prince. Alas... We are now in a stalemate. I am the prince. My strength If the faction refuses to do so, the fourth prince will be appointed as the prince, but all the ministers in the dynasty are unwilling, so... the prince's matter has been postponed until now and has not been resolved!"
I nodded my head clearly and said confidently: "So, what we have to do now is to try to win the support of the powerful factions while maintaining the support of the bureaucratic faction? As long as we have a certain number of powerful factions With the support, His Highness the Prince can successfully become the Crown Prince, but like this?"
The second prince opened his eyes excitedly and nodded: "Yes, now... I am trying to win the support of powerful factions, but those guys are so arrogant that they look down on me, the second prince, who has no military exploits and only wants to conquer the Piaoxiang Empire. The fourth prince who has conquered a large area of the country greatly praised him and believed that he could make the Piaoxiang Empire even more powerful by becoming the emperor!"
