"Xuanyuan Zhan!" Xuanyuan Yu ran up to Xuanyuan Zhan first and blocked his way.
Xuan Yuanzhi and Xuan Yuanduo blocked Xuan Yuanzhan's retreat from the left and right, respectively, forming a triangle around him.
Xuan Yuanzhan looked around at the three of them speechlessly, his face full of disgust: "What do you want?"
This scene is so familiar; the three of them did this all the time when they were kids!
Xuanyuan Yu directly reached out to Xuanyuan Zhan: "Hand over the Xuanwu Sword, you are not worthy to take the Xuanwu Sword!"
Xuanyuan Duo immediately chimed in, "That's right, what right does a bastard like you have to take the Xuanwu Sword? Give me the Xuanwu Sword!"
Xuan Yuanzhi stared greedily at the Xuanwu Sword in Xuan Yuanzhan's hand, without uttering a sound.
Although he is not on the same side as Xuanyuan Yu and Xuanyuan Zhi, he absolutely cannot give up on the matter of the Xuanwu Sword!
Looking at the three men's bandit-like posture, Xuanyuan Zhan disdainfully raised the Xuanwu Sword: "You want the Xuanwu Sword? Then take it by your own ability! Once you get it, it's yours!"
Xuanyuan Yu, Xuanyuan Zhi, and Xuanyuan Duo exchanged a glance.
Without saying a word, the three of them attacked Xuan Yuanzhan together.
Although Xuanyuan Zhan was alone, he was not afraid of them. He didn't even open the scabbard of the Xuanwu Sword before wielding it at the three of them.
Even with the combined efforts of the three, they were still no match for Xuan Yuanzhan.
Xuanyuan Zhan even used only 20% of his strength to overpower the three of them!
The commotion caused by the three attracted the attention of the court officials who had just finished their morning court session.
The courtiers were somewhat disheartened to see that even with their combined attack, Xuan Yuan Yu and the other two could not defeat Xuan Yuan Zhan.
"The Holy King's martial arts are truly amazing!"
"Yeah, even three against one couldn't beat them!"
"What do you know? The Holy King's martial arts are among the best in our Eastern Chu!"
Some of the generals who understood the moves exclaimed in amazement at Xuan Yuanzhan's techniques: "The Holy King's martial arts moves are really strange. He probably didn't use his full strength, maybe only half of it at most!"
After the general finished speaking, the courtiers were once again astonished.
"The Holy King used only half his strength to suppress the three princes. It seems that the Holy King's martial arts are unfathomable!"
"The Holy King must still have some consideration for brotherhood, so he only used half his strength!"
"The Holy King is truly a man of both literary and martial talents; no wonder the Emperor likes him so much!"
"If the Holy King is a legitimate prince, with such extraordinary talent, he must be destined to inherit the throne!"
"It's about time, isn't it? The Emperor's intentions are so clear, who can stop him?"
At this moment, Xuan Yuanzhan had no idea how many court officials Xuan Yuanpeng's statement at court today would win him over.
In fact, apart from the one-third of the court officials who did not join the Third Prince's faction and the Second Prince's faction in their clamor, there were quite a few officials who supported Xuanyuan Zhan who were secretly within the Third Prince's faction and the Second Prince's faction.
Xuan Yuanzhan's current situation is unclear, which is why he instructed them to infiltrate the other two factions and not openly support or side with him.
The truth is that in the six months since Xuanyuan Zhan entered the court, he has won over far more than 30% of the court officials.
After attacking Xuan Yuanzhan for a while, Xuan Yuanzhan's martial arts seemed to have improved by leaps and bounds, and were much, much better than before.
Xuanyuan Zhan didn't want to play with them anymore, so he suddenly used his inner strength to send all three of them flying.
With a "boom," Xuan Yuan Yu and the other two were all thrown back, staggering.
"Your Highness."
"Your Highness."
"Your Highness."
The assembled officials rushed forward to help the three men.
Xuanyuan Yu clutched his chest, glaring at Xuanyuan Zhan with resentment: "Xuanyuan Zhan, what kind of evil technique have you been practicing!"
What kind of kung fu can make someone progress so rapidly in such a short time? It must be some kind of evil kung fu!
Hearing Xuan Yuan Yu's ignorant words, Xuan Yuan Zhan couldn't help but roll his eyes: "You should be glad that this is outside the Eastern Chu Palace. If it were anywhere else, I wouldn't be so polite to you!"
After Xuanyuan Zhan finished speaking, he took the Xuanwu Sword and walked past the three of them.
For Xuan Yuanpeng's sake, he'll let them off the hook today. But if they dare to provoke him again, he won't tolerate it every time!
When Xuanyuan Yu and the others saw that Xuanyuan Zhan had left, they wanted to chase after him, but they were wary of his martial arts skills.
Damn the Bai family, where did they find such a master for Xuanyuan Zhan? He's become so powerful that they can't even defeat him by force.
Xuanyuan Yu stared intently at Xuanyuan Zhan's back, feeling an urge to put the Gu worm from his sleeve onto Xuanyuan Zhan.
He wants to make him wish he were dead, to make him wish he were never born!
But he could only dream about it. After all, Xuan Yuanzhan was so powerful that even if he succeeded in using the Gu worm, he might have the ability to remove it.
Soon, the commotion in the Eastern Chu Palace reached Xuanyuan Peng.
Zong Jiu rushed into the hall and reported: "Your Majesty, the three princes are fighting with the Holy King outside the Eastern Chu Palace. They want to seize the Xuanwu Sword!"
"You damned brat!" Xuan Yuanpeng was furious upon hearing this, then frowned and asked worriedly, "Is Zhan'er alright?"
Zong Jiu immediately shook his head: "The Prince is very powerful. Even the three princes combined are no match for him."
Xuanyuan Peng breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned and asked, "Those three weren't injured, were they?"
Zong Jiu smiled reassuringly, "No, His Highness held back. No one was injured. His Highness has already left the palace."
Xuanyuan Peng nodded with satisfaction.
He knew that Zhan'er was cold on the outside but soft on the inside, and wouldn't really get serious with Xuan Yuan Yu and the others.
He could tell from childhood. At first, Zhan'er was always bullied badly by them, but after Zhan'er learned martial arts, the three children became the ones who got hurt. But each time it was just a minor injury, never anything serious.
