In the Ninth Prince's Mansion, the two discussed matters and talked about the God of War of the Demon Clan, and the atmosphere immediately became solemn. Xuan Que frowned and said, "What's wrong, Asura's departure from the Demon Origin Death Realm should be a good thing for the Thirteenth Younger Brother, after all, the threat of this God of War is too great, so he stayed, even the two Demon Sovereigns. have some scruples, have to
The three princes network is open. "
"Asura's stay will indeed hinder me from taking down the third prince, but, compared with the consequences of his departure, this impact can be completely ignored."
Ning Chen said in a deep voice, "Brother Jiuhuang also knows that in all the battlefields today, only the Wutian Demon Royal Family is at a disadvantage in the Western battlefield. Therefore, as long as Asura leaves, he must go to the Western battlefield to support."
Speaking of this, Ning Chen's tone was slightly paused, his eyes turned to the west, and he said, "Brother Jiuhuang, you should know better than anyone who is in charge of the Western battlefield now."
"There are still dragons, Xuanzhen"
Xuanque's expression changed slightly and replied. Ning Chen nodded and said solemnly, "So, no matter what, Asura must not leave, otherwise, once the war in the West is settled and Xuanzhen returns, the situation of the imperial city will change again. At that time, how will we fight against a demon emperor who has two demon emperors
What about the eldest prince who supported and made great achievements? "
Xuan Que heard it, his expression became heavy, he was careless, he only cared about the situation in the imperial city, and forgot that there was a eldest prince on the battlefield ahead.
In the current situation, the eldest prince can't return to the city, at least he can't come back full of military exploits.
In this way, Asura really can't leave. Looking at the eyes of the former's thoughts, Ning Chen said seriously, "The situation in the imperial city is unpredictable. Previously, we really needed the eldest prince to contain Xuanqing, but, in the current situation, the eldest prince will either not come back, or he will bring thunderous power. turbulent
Flattening all obstacles, such a result is not what we want. "
Xuanque nodded and said solemnly, "What can I do for Thirteenth Brother?"
"Leverage Xuanqing's hand to restrain Asura."
Ning Chen solemnly said, "Brother Jiuhuang is kind to the third prince. The third prince can still listen to what the emperor said. As long as the third prince can see the current situation clearly, he will definitely find a way to make Asura stay."
"I see."
Xuan Que nodded and came down.
After talking about the matter, Ning Chen got up, looked at the ninth prince in front of him, and said, "I can't stay in the royal brother's mansion for too long, so as not to cause others to suspect, the rest will be left to the royal brother to handle."
"rest assured"
Xuan Que also stood up and responded, "I will go to Xuanqing's place. The emperor's younger brother is now caught in the vortex of imperial power struggle, so be careful."
"Thank you, brother, for reminding me, I will."
Ning Chen replied without saying any more, turned around and walked outside the palace.
"Thirteenth Brother"
Behind, Xuanque suddenly opened his mouth and called.
"Um?"
Ning Chen stopped, looked back, and asked with a puzzled face, "Brother Jiuhuang, is there anything else?"
"I really want to know, why are you not interested in the imperial power at all?"
Xuanque asked the question that had been suppressed for a long time in his heart.
Ning Chen smiled and said, "There are so many things in life that are more meaningful than imperial power. I don't want to give up these precious things around me for it, such as the hard-won love for my blood compatriots."
Hearing this, Xuanque was silent for a moment, then bowed earnestly, and said, "I apologize again for my mistrust of Thirteenth Brother."
"it's already over."
Ning Chen chuckled lightly, didn't say any more, turned around and left.
Inside the palace, Xuanque looked at the back of the former leaving, his expression condensed.
The old thirteen vowed to give up the imperial power, which was beyond his expectations. The vow would be the most terrifying restraint for any cultivator, especially the demon clan that is not recognized by heaven and earth.
If Old Thirteen's actions in the future are true to what he said today, then from now on, if his Xuanque is crowned as the Great Commander, Old Thirteen will be the number one official of his Heavenly Demon Imperial Family.
In the imperial city, Ning Chen was walking on the street, looking at the surging clouds in the sky, the corners of his mouth flashed coldness, the bloodless war started again!
It is a pity that soldiers cannot die on the battlefield. No matter when, conspiracy and calculation are the most invincible butcher's knife. To die under it will be a lifelong regret.
However, this is part of the war, as terrible as the battlefield, and there is a possibility of falling at any time.
On the streets, the forbidden army patrols. Since the chaos in the imperial city a long time ago, the vigilance in the Three Emperors City has been strengthened a lot, and the forbidden army can be seen everywhere.
At the forefront of the forbidden army, a middle-aged man in heavy armor looked over, the two looked at each other, and stopped at their feet.
"Brother Xuanmo."
Ning Chen bowed as usual and greeted.
"Don't dare."
Xuan Mo sighed lightly and said, "His Thirteenth Highness is now the real crown prince. I can't afford this big brother."
"It's not what I wanted right now."
Ning Chen said with a look of emotion on his face, "In this imperial city, I will always face different crises. Today, I have no other choice."
Xuan Mo was silent, and after a long time, he opened his mouth and said, "I understand that in the future, Your Highness's road will become more and more bumpy. Your Highness, please do it yourself."
After speaking, Xuan Mo continued to walk forward.
The two passed by by mistake, with their backs facing each other, and they went away, just like a portrayal of life.
Just when Ning Chen returned to his mansion, Xuanque walked out of the Ninth Prince's Mansion and walked all the way towards the Third Prince's Mansion.
In the Third Prince's Mansion, Xuan Qing sat on the throne in the palace, listening to the secret reports from the various forces from the four profound entrances below, with an unusually cold expression.
The principle of people taking tea to cool is really reflected in some people. He has only been grounded for a few months, and the villains who used to be stalking have already found another master.
Moreover, the old thirteen is also serious about meat and vegetarian food, knowing that these people have no loyalty at all, but they all accept them, and they will not refuse.
It seems that after getting the Nine Kings Pearl, the old thirteen can't wait to strengthen himself and compete with him.
"His Royal Highness, the Ninth Prince is outside asking to see you."
At this time, in front of the palace, a guard walked quickly and respectfully said.
"welcome."
Xuan Qing narrowed his eyes slightly and said.
"Yes!"
The guard took orders and turned to leave.
"Ninth Prince?"
In the hall, the head of the Four Profound Entrances, Dongxuan Yuting frowned slightly and said, "Isn't this person from the Thirteenth Prince's side?"
"This time and the other." Xuan Qing said lightly, "In the past, the old thirteen did not have the qualifications to inherit the line, and the old nine and him were equal. It is human nature to be on an equal footing with the old thirteen, and it is normal for people to have a change in mentality. Judging from the fact that the old nine went to the Demon Source Death Realm to invite Asuras, my brother of the nine emperors is not as ordinary as he seems, and he knows that he will save the first place for himself. There are two back paths, and he has done it. This is what makes him extraordinary. Therefore, when he comes, I do not
strangeness. "
Not long after Xuanqing's words fell, in front of the palace, a young figure stepped forward, with a slightly gloomy face, making people reluctant to get close.
"I have seen Brother Three Emperors."
Xuan Que saluted with a respectful expression.
"Ninth brother, don't be too polite."
Xuanqing went out of the hall to greet him in person, smiled and said, "Why does the ninth brother have time to come to my prince's mansion today?"
"After the three emperors regained their freedom, I have always wanted to come to congratulate him, but I have always been inseparable. Today, I have a chance to visit the three emperors." Xuanque said.
"My brother, ninth brother doesn't have to be so polite."
Xuanqing smiled and said, "It's cold outside, your brother and I will talk about it after entering the hall."
"Um"
Xuan Que nodded and stepped into the hall.
Inside the hall, the Four Profound Passes bowed to the two of them, and quietly retreated without disturbing the conversation between the two.
Looking at the four people leaving, a thoughtful look flashed in Xuanque's eyes, and he was not quite sure, "Are they from the Four Profound Royal Family?"
"Ninth brother has good eyesight."
Xuanqing replied with a light smile, "They are the contemporary entrances of the Sixuan royal family, Dongxuan Yuting, Xixuan Yufeng, Nanxuan Yangyi, and Beixuan Yaoxue."
Hearing this, Xuan Que had a strange expression on his face, and said, "Brother Huang actually brought them under his command, which really surprised the younger brother."
"The Beixuan royal family is a relative of my mother's clan. As for the other three clans, they have always been friends with the Beixuan royal family. The four royal families are all prosperous and all lost. I can get their allegiance. Speaking of which, I have to thank my mother and concubine." Xuan Qing smiled.
Xuan Que sighed lightly. The biggest difference between him and Xuan Qing and Xuan Zhen, the two princes, was his background. The most important thing for the Heavenly Demon Royal Family was blood, which was also the fundamental reason why Old Thirteen could not get the Nine Kings Pearl before.
However, now that there is a precedent for the old thirteen, not only him, but also other princes have a glimmer of hope in their hearts.
"Ninth brother, how is the thirteenth brother recently?" Xuan Qing suddenly asked. Xuan Que was stunned when he heard the words, and then his expression became a little ugly. Gu Zuoyan said, "I don't know about the thirteenth brother. Brother Sanhuang, your news is better than mine. I came here to ask. The war ahead, how is the situation now
"
"It's not optimistic." Seeing that the former was unwilling to talk about the old thirteen, Xuanqing did not reluctantly and responded truthfully, "Although the Wu clan has temporarily retreated, the war on other parties is still tense, especially in the Western Sanctuary. , the strength is beyond imagination, the six sanctuaries
Palace Master, everyone is a powerhouse in the late King Realm, with amazing combat power and extremely difficult to deal with. "
Xuan Que frowned and said, "Didn't Long Zhong also go to the Western battlefield?"
"The masters of the third and sixth palaces of the sanctuary are not under the strength of Long Zhong. Even if Long Zhong takes action, the situation will not change much." Xuan Qing replied.
Xuan Que frowned again, thought for a moment, and said, "It seems that the situation can only be reversed only if the God of War of our clan takes action."
"Asura?"
Xuan Qing looked at the distant Demon Origin Death Realm, and said, "Asura takes a shot, the result will definitely be different, then"
Speaking of this, Xuan Qing's expression suddenly changed.
Careless!
All along, his eyes have always been on the old thirteen, but he has ignored the eldest prince on the western battlefield. It's true that Xuanzhen can't come back now, but if the war in the West is settled and Xuanzhen comes back with all his exploits, who can check and balance him.
