"Why, aren't you willing? A man can bend and stretch, so what if he shows weakness! Could it be that you want me to completely become an enemy of Lin Ming because of you?"
Zhu Yan took a few deep breaths, and then slowly relaxed his clenched fists. His eyes showed a cold look, and he said slowly, "Your Highness, a dead genius is no longer a genius."
"Hmph! You want me to assassinate Lin Ming? Zhu Yan, don't you know how the Seven Profound Martial House exists in the Heavenly Fortune Kingdom? Lin Ming is a once-in-a-century genius in the Seven Profound Martial House! You actually asked me to assassinate him, even if he After leaving the Martial House, even if he hasn't grown up yet, don't forget about my elder brother—Prince Yang Lin! Although Yang Lin is stupid, he is not stupid enough! How could he not send someone to protect Lin Ming? He also has experts around him , and there is even a Mu Yi! Once I miscalculate, once I show the slightest flaw and get caught by Yang Lin, then even if I kill Lin Ming, I will pay for it! When the time comes, let alone the throne, I will not even be able to save my life! The authority of the Xuanwu Mansion is inviolable, even if it is the father, they will abolish it as soon as they say it!"
"One Muyi is already giving me a headache! The eighteen dead soldiers I trained and the Ke Qing under my command are very reluctant to deal with Muyi. If I add another Lin Ming who has grown up, my chances of winning will be greatly reduced!"
The corners of Zhu Yan's mouth twitched, his fists sank slightly, and he said word by word: "Your Highness, please give me some time, and I will give you an explanation!"
"Okay, I believe you once, but what if you let me down again?"
Zhu Yan took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "If I lose, if Lin Ming can continue to grow at such a monstrous speed, then I will divorce Lan Yunyue and apologize to Lin Ming!"
"Hmph, I hope there's still time! Back off!"
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ..
In the private room of Daming Xuan, the lights were bright and the dishes were exquisite, but Zhu Yan didn't have the slightest intention to eat food at this time.
Seeing that Zhu Yan didn't eat, Lan Yunyue didn't dare to move her chopsticks. She guessed that Zhu Yan's troubles today were related to Lin Ming's challenge. She was caught in the middle, extremely embarrassed, and dared not say a word.
"Today, the Tenth Prince summoned me." After a long silence, Zhu Yan suddenly spoke slowly.
"Well, say... say what?" Lan Yunyue felt a little uneasy in her heart, she never knew what Zhu Yan was thinking in her heart, she just felt that he was a gloomy and terrifying person, he remained calm one moment, but the next moment he would Suddenly furious and fierce, he is like a deep pool where fierce beasts lurk, seemingly calm, but it contains endless murderous intentions.
When she was with Zhu Yan, Lan Yunyue always felt an invisible pressure, which made her breathless, unlike when she was with Lin Ming in the past, she could act coquettishly and make her temper arbitrarily. That boy always satisfies his irrational wishes with a sunny smile...
It's a pity that those days are gone forever, Lan Yunyue sighed in her heart, but she didn't dare to show any loss of focus, because she always felt that Zhu Yan's gaze was like a falcon, as if she could see through his heart.
"He asked me..." Zhu Yan paused slightly when he said this, his eyes met Lan Yunyue's, and he said slowly, "Let me divorce you..."
At that moment, Lan Yunyue was stunned, she felt that time seemed to slow down in an instant, Zhu Yan's face seemed to suddenly become distant in front of her eyes, and all her senses of hearing and touch became blurred.
Although she has always maintained her innocence, she and Zhu Yan are already engaged. In Tianyun Kingdom, it is an extremely shameful thing for a girl to be divorced after she is engaged. Any remarriage will be affected. If Zhu Yan really divorces her , where should she go
She looked at Zhu Yan's unfamiliar face, bit her lips tightly, and tried her best not to cry, but the tears were still rolling in her eyes. She naturally knew the meaning of the Tenth Prince to the Zhu family and Zhu Yan, and his words carried weight to Zhu Yan How much should it weigh.
"You...you agreed?" Lan Yunyue's voice was vague and choked.
"Not yet." Zhu Yan answered truthfully.
"Why...why?" Lan Yunyue subconsciously clenched the chopsticks in her hands, her knuckles turned slightly white from the force.
"Because of Lin Ming, the Tenth Prince wanted to win Lin Ming over, and you... became an obstacle for him to win over Lin Ming."
"Obstacle... Obstacle..." Lan Yunyue finally couldn't help the tears rolling down, I am just an ordinary girl, how could one day be involved in the struggle for the throne and become an obstacle for the prince...
why
Zhu Yan said: "I have about a month to two months, but I don't know exactly how to do it... You don't have to despair, things may not be a foregone conclusion."
After Zhu Yan said these words, he got up and left, opened the door and left.
Leaving Lan Yunyue sitting on the chair alone, as if she had lost her soul, she knew very well that although Zhu Yan said that there was still a chance, if she really became an obstacle to his ambition one day, even if it was only a little bit, he would not Will abandon myself without hesitation!
Thinking of this, Lan Yunyue felt an inexplicable sadness in her heart.
She left the room in a daze and pushed open the door of the private room.
In the noisy hall of Daming Xuan, a group of young masters from aristocratic families are pushing cups and drinking cups, having fun. The delicate bronze cups are engraved with vivid patterns of gluttony. devour...
Luxuriously decorated halls, velvet carpets, elegant silk and bamboo orchestral sounds, exquisite jade plates and golden bowls of delicacies, these things that she once dreamed of chasing, now only made her feel extraordinarily empty.
She went down the stairs and walked out of Daming Pavilion.
The autumn night is already very cool, and the wind blowing on the face carries the breath of cold dew, which makes people feel bleak out of thin air.
Actually, Zhu Yan was right... Lan Yunyue understood that she had no reason to complain about what he said tonight.
She chose Zhu Yan because of the prosperity and wealth and longer youth that Zhu Yan can bring her.
If one day Zhu Yan loses his position because of a woman, then his woman may leave him...
How could Zhu Yan not understand this truth
If you choose Ronghua, you have to bear the bitterness behind Ronghua, but... she understands this truth too late...
She suddenly realized what a precious thing she had lost. She regretted it, but it wasn't because Lin Ming had transformed into a dragon with golden scales, but because she didn't know it was a blessing when she was in the blessing.
…
While many people were astonished by Lin Ming's achievements, and when the various forces were doing something for Lin Ming, Lin Ming did not feel the slightest bit of complacency because of his own achievements.
He chose to challenge Zhu Yan for a month this time, but he was not absolutely sure.
Zhu Yan was the first decent enemy in Lin Ming's life.
In the past, Lin Ming planned to set him as the goal of surpassing him in his life, but now, in just half a year, Lin Ming is about to confront Zhu Yan in the same martial arts arena!
Lin Ming could feel Zhu Yan's tenacity and extraordinaryness.
Like Wang Yanfeng, Zhu Yan has his own arrogance and unyielding will, but he is not as sharp-edged as Wang Yanfeng, but restrained in his heart. If Wang Yanfeng is an unsheathed sword with cold air, then Zhu Yan is a The narrow knife with the handle hidden in the scabbard is full of sharpness, you don't know when it will come out of the sheath, but the first knife out of the sheath is often a knife that cannot be guarded against!
Zhu Yan, it's not so easy to be overwhelmed! He is not a direct son in the Zhu family, but relying on his own strength and hard work, he has climbed to his current position step by step, and is very likely to inherit the position of the head of the Zhu family. Such a person must be like tough grass, with a sense of tenacity!
Even if Lin Ming still had a Red Gold Dragon Marrow Pellet that had been amplified by the inscription medicine talisman, he was not completely sure of it!
This month, Zhu Yan will definitely redouble his efforts!
But even though he knew this, Lin Ming still issued a challenge! Not only does he want to challenge Zhu Yan, but he also challenges himself, pushing himself into a desperate situation, and stimulating his potential!
This month, the resources that Lin Ming could obtain had increased substantially. He could cultivate in the Seven Great Killing Formation for five whole days, and obtain five Yuan Gathering Pills and five True Essence Stones.
Gathering Yuan Pill is nothing, but this True Yuan Stone, especially five full days of cultivation time, is very important to Lin Ming.
Five full days, sixty hours, an average of two hours a day!
Although it is not said that you can practice wantonly, the effect of two hours is already very good.
In the early morning of that day, Lin Ming carried the Penetrating Rainbow Spear on his back early, and headed for the cold waterfall pool.
And just when he was about to step into the cold pool, a voice came from afar, "Clan brother, wait."
"Huh?" Lin Ming paused, it was Lin Wu.
"Clan brother, congratulations, this time we are really proud of our parents!" Lin Wu ran over cheerfully.
The Lin family used to be one of the largest families in Qingsang City, but now they are completely outmatched by the Zhu family. Was made a prince.
This is not as bad as having to complain about fate, but what annoys the Lin family elders the most is that the younger generation of the Lin family are also crushed to death by the Zhu family. Just Zhu Yan is like a mountain lying on the ground. In front of the disciples of the Lin family, Lin Wu is the strongest of the younger generation of the Lin family. He barely managed to get into the Hall of the Earth after two years in the Qixuanwu Mansion, and his ranking was still in the middle and lower reaches. The other two didn't even enter the Hall of the Earth. The sum of them can't keep up with half of Zhu Yan's. How can the elders of the Lin family not be annoyed
But yesterday, twelve long-distance sound-transmitting talismans transmitted sound transmissions in a row, abruptly spreading the news thousands of miles from Tianyun City, and it was transmitted back to Qingsang City that night.
Ordinary sound-transmitting talismans can only be transmitted tens of miles away, while one piece of long-distance sound-transmitting talisman can be transmitted hundreds of miles away, but the price is high, and one piece costs dozens of taels of gold. To reach Green Mulberry City, twelve sound-transmitting talismans are needed to transmit sound in a row, and the transmission of this message alone costs hundreds of taels of gold. If there is no important news, even a big family like the Lin family will not waste it like this.
Twelve serial sound transmissions, Chi Jin hastened, the message was only one sentence: "Lin Ming, entered the Seven Profound Martial House for 34 days, and was ranked 62nd in the second Ten Thousand Killing Formation assessment, and won the right to challenge the Palace of Heaven. Point directly at Zhu Yan, challenge Zhu Yan in public, and challenge Zhu Yan in a month."
It is said that the Patriarch of the Lin family jumped up from his chair on the spot after receiving this sound transmission talisman, and even cursed - "It's so damn cool!"
