The eldest prince saw the shadow in front of him and said, "Elder Wu, help me kill a man. This man is called Chen Lei. No matter what means you use, kill him and bring his head to me."
"good!"
Elder Wu was very frugal with his words and only answered with this one word. Then he disappeared out of thin air, leaving the eldest prince alone on the throne with a ferocious face and gnashing teeth.
"Chen Lei, my things are not so easy to get." The eldest prince Huo Yaotian's voice was full of coldness.
At this time, in the Fourth Prince's mansion, the Fourth Prince was holding a banquet to celebrate his success. Many meritorious officials gathered together, toasting each other and making the scene very lively.
At the banquet, the fourth prince Huo Litian praised Chen Lei highly.
"Chen Lei, if you hadn't made such a great contribution this time, this prince would never have been able to take back this Nirvana Holy Flame. If you want any reward, just ask for it."
Chen Lei shook his head and refused the Fourth Prince's reward, saying, "Fourth Prince, you have given me more than enough. I have no more requests. However, I hope to be able to enter the Royal Library as soon as possible and browse the Royal Collection."
The fourth prince laughed loudly and said, "That's easy. Tomorrow morning, you can bring this prince's token and go to the royal library."
Chen Lei nodded and said, "Thank you, Fourth Prince."
Jiao Yi, who was standing by, saw that Chen Lei was so valued by the Fourth Prince, and jealousy flashed in his eyes. He said, "Fourth Prince, Chen Lei is just lucky to have met you. If I could meet you in the Suzaku Secret Realm, I would definitely help you take back the Nirvana Holy Flame."
The fourth prince nodded and said, "Jiao Yi, I believe you have such strength. Don't worry, I, Huo Litian, will never bury any talent. In the future, as long as you can make contributions, I will definitely not be stingy with rewards."
Jiao Yi and the others nodded and said, "Thank you, Fourth Prince."
Then, Jiao Yi said, "Fourth Prince, drinking like this is really boring. I would like to have a discussion with Chen Lei to help me get drunk. Please grant me permission."
The fourth prince waved his hand and said, "Forget it. Today is a happy day. If we spar with each other and produce true fire, it will be a bad ending. Let's conserve our energy and prepare for the next trip to the ancestral land of the Yan clan."
Jiao Yi said: "Fourth Prince, we do this so that we can know each other better, so that we can cooperate well in the future in the ancestral land of the Yan clan."
The fourth prince looked at Chen Lei and asked, "Chen Lei, Jiao Yi wants to spar with you, what do you think?"
Chen Lei shook his head and said, "I won't get involved in such a boring thing."
"Chen Lei, you don't have the courage, do you?"
"That's right. You're not afraid of losing, are you? Don't worry, Brother Jiaoyi will show mercy to you."
When they heard Chen Lei's refusal, the other people immediately spoke up and made sarcastic remarks.
Jiao Yi also looked at Chen Lei provocatively and said, "Chen Lei, if you are a man, fight me."
Chen Lei said: "Jiao Yi, since you want to be bullied, I can help you, but I won't fight for nothing. If you want to spar with me, no problem, but there has to be some gamble."
