Three hundred miles east of Tiandou City.

After learning that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect had been destroyed, Oscar and Ma Hongjun quickly turned around and rushed to Tiandou City.

According to the news from Wuhun Daily, the only survivors of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect were the disciples who were not in the sect when the attack occurred. And that was exactly the five-year agreement made by the Shrek Seven Devils.

Oscar understood that as long as Ning Rongrong went to the appointment, she would definitely not be in the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.

But before he met Ning Rongrong, he was still unsure.

"Xiao Ao, in my opinion, we should not go back." Ma Hongjun began to back out.

Over the years, he and Oscar had gone through many life-and-death tests, and the two had a life-and-death friendship. But Tang San would not let him go. When he was in the Spirit Hall, the look in Tang San's eyes when he wanted to kill him still frightened him when he recalled it.

After returning to Shrek Academy, if he encounters Tang San, his life will be in danger. Ma Hongjun doesn't think he can avoid Tang San's hidden weapon.

"Fatty, you were only trying to protect yourself at the beginning. I believe that as long as you talk it out, Xiao San and the others will not blame you." Oscar vowed.

In the past few years of training with Ma Hongjun, he naturally understood that Ma Hongjun's nature was not bad. At the beginning, he was just forced by his physical condition, which led him to go astray.

Ma Hongjun was still a little hesitant, but under Oscar's pull, he reluctantly walked towards Tiandou City.

…

"Is this the imperial palace?" Tang San murmured as he looked at the magnificent building in front of him.

The four elders beside him did not speak, but just followed Tang San.

Now that the war on the continent was imminent, he did not want to come here to protect Tang San. But Tang Xiao issued orders in the name of the sect master, and he had important things to do here.

But compared to these, he was more concerned about the safety of the sect.

"Fourth Elder, let's go in." Tang San turned his head and said.

The fourth elder nodded slightly.

The two men walked to the archway at the entrance of the palace and were stopped by a group of armored guards.

"The palace is a very important place, outsiders please stay away immediately."

Tang San took a step forward and took out the token that symbolized Xue Ye. "I am Tang San, and I have been ordered to come here to treat your majesty."

The guard glanced at Tang San, then at the token in his hand.

"This token does belong to His Majesty." The captain of the guard murmured, showing no intention of letting him pass.

Seeing this, Tang San scolded: "Your Majesty is in poor health now, why don't you let him go quickly! If you delay the treatment, you may be charged with regicide."

The captain of the guard was not intimidated by him and said calmly, "Haha, please go back. His Majesty does not need a little kid like you to treat him."

"Tang San, the guards here are all spirit masters." The fourth elder transmitted the message.

The Royal Knights of the Tiandou Empire are indeed the most powerful army in the army. But with the capabilities of the Tiandou Empire, it is impossible for them to form a team of all soul masters.

Even if there are, such elite troops cannot be assigned here to guard the gate.

Tang San immediately discovered the clue, but he had no answer in his mind as to who this army belonged to.

"Uncle Ning said that the current leader of the Tiandou Empire is Crown Prince Xue Qinghe. Perhaps his token will be of some use."

After thinking for a moment, he decided to take out Xue Qinghe's token. If the other party still refused to let him go, he would go back to Ning Fengzhi to discuss the matter.

Just as he took out the token, a voice suddenly came from not far away, "Let him go."

"Prince Xuexing!" Tang San frowned slightly.

Whenever he recalled Xue Xing's face, the scene of Qin Ming's tragic death would appear in his mind. If he was not weak enough, he would have wanted to kill him long ago.

"Your Highness, this doesn't seem to be against the rules," said the captain of the guard.

Xue Xing waved his sleeves and snorted coldly, "Tang San's coming to treat my brother has been approved by me and even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. If you delay the best opportunity, I'm afraid your heads will be moved."

"Your Highness, you are joking." The captain of the guard bowed slightly, then turned around and let Tang San and the Fourth Elder in.

"Follow me." Xue Xing said lightly, leading Tang San and the other person towards the palace.

Facing his enemy, Tang San wished he could take advantage of the opportunity when the other party's back was turned and kill him with one blow.

But in the end, reason prevailed over impulse. This was an important place in the imperial palace. If he attempted the assassination, he would probably be hunted down endlessly by the Tiandou Empire in the future.

Not long after, Xue Xing brought them to a villa in the palace.

This is not a sleeping palace for Xue Ye, but a place where people are forbidden to enter due to Xue Avalanche.

"Your Highness, what do you mean?" Tang San sensed something was wrong and immediately became alert.

Xue Ye was seriously ill in bed, and there must be many guards around him. But here, it seemed quite deserted, without any trace of Xue Ye.

Xue Xing did not speak in a hurry, but looked behind him for a while. Seeing that no one noticed here, he pushed open the door of the house and motioned Tang San and the Fourth Elder to enter.

Just as Tang San was hesitating, the Fourth Elder slowly said, "Go in."

With the strength of the Fourth Elder, if the other party set an ambush, he would definitely notice it. Hearing this, Tang San no longer hesitated and followed the Fourth Elder into the house.

The decoration inside the house is not luxurious. The only valuable things are probably the chairs made of precious wood.

As soon as he sat down, Xue Beng's figure walked out from behind the screen.

"Fourth Elder." Xue Beng bowed and saluted.

Tang San raised his eyebrows, he never thought that Xue Beng would know the Fourth Elder.

The fourth elder slowly spoke: "Prince Xuebeng, the letter you asked Yuehua to deliver. Is the content on it true?"

Pavilion Master Yuexuan is the sister of the leader of Haotian Sect. Xuexing learned about this by chance.

At the beginning, because of what happened in Tiandou Royal Academy, Xue Beng was arranged to study in Yuexuan. After Xue Xing was released from house arrest, he went to Yuexuan to visit Xue Beng as soon as possible. Unfortunately, he heard the conversation between Tang Yuehua and the disciples of Haotian Sect.

He never made this matter public because he knew that this secret would be his amulet at the critical moment.

Until a few days ago, he was suddenly summoned to the palace and placed under house arrest. He realized that something was wrong and quickly sent the letter to Tang Yuehua through some channels.

However, the Fourth Elder remained skeptical about what Xue Beng and Xue Xing had said in the letter.

"Fourth Elder, what is going on?" Tang San asked hurriedly.

The fourth elder had no intention of explaining.

Xue Xing saw this and said, "Tang San, some things are not what you think. Xue Qinghe is not as glamorous as she seems. If my brother dies, this king and Beng'er will immediately die at the hands of Xue Qinghe."

Hearing that it was a power struggle, Tang San immediately lost interest. Before coming here, Yu Xiaogang had warned him not to get involved in the struggle for imperial power, otherwise it would only bring him trouble.

Xue Beng quickly explained: "The soldiers in the palace do not belong to the Tiandou Empire at all. They are all soul masters transferred by Xue Qinghe. There are even strong men from the Wuhun Hall in the palace."

"Spirit Hall!" The four elders and Tang San frowned after hearing this.

The people from the Spirit Hall appeared here, and their purpose is probably to take advantage of the power change in the empire to further control the Tiandou Empire.

Seeing the effect, Xue Xing continued, "The strong man from the Spirit Hall was brought by Xue Qinghe. It is very likely that he has secretly defected to the Spirit Hall. It is even possible that he was sent by the Spirit Hall to impersonate him."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"Xue Qinghe's behavior has been very abnormal over the years. I should have known earlier that it was impossible for a mediocre prince to suddenly show outstanding talent in politics overnight."

Xue Xing's words were somewhat shocking, and Tang San found it difficult to accept for a moment. He said: "If I can save His Majesty, all these problems can be completely handed over to His Majesty to decide."

Xue Xing smiled bitterly and said, "In the past, this king and Beng'er did make some bad moves under the pressure of Xue Qinghe. But you have to believe that since Xue Qinghe dared to blatantly bring the strong men of the Spirit Hall into the palace, he must have had a plan in mind."

"Your Highness, what do you want? What benefit can our Haotian Sect get from it?" said the fourth elder indifferently.

The Haotian Sect will definitely not remain closed to the world forever. Sooner or later, they will come out of the sect and seek revenge on the Spirit Hall. But it is obviously not a wise move for them to seek revenge on the Spirit Hall alone. They also want to unite with the Tiandou Empire.

Moreover, after the war, Haotian Sect will definitely take back its original industry. If they support Xue Beng to come to power, they can completely eat up the market share of the original Qibao Liuli Sect in the future.

Xue Xing bowed and said, "This king hopes that you can expose Xue Qinghe's true face and make him get out of the palace."

Xue Beng said quickly: "If I can ascend to the throne, I can worship your clan leader as the national teacher, and your clan will always be a strategic partner of the Tiandou Empire. The empire will provide policy support for your clan."

As he said this, he quickly knelt down in front of the Fourth Elder and said, "If the Fourth Elder does not forsake me, I am willing to take you as my master. I only ask that you can save the Tiandou Empire from the water and fire."

This time, he did not choose to take Tang San as his master.

In the original time and space, Tang San was not only the leader of the Tang Sect, but also a peerless genius with a 100,000-year spirit ring. Xue Beng and Xue Ye were naturally willing to bet on such a future powerhouse.

But now is different from the past, Tang San is now just a disciple of Haotian Sect, and he has been in the prison of Wuhun Hall. After all, Xue Beng wants to ascend to the throne, and he will never choose such a Tang San.

The Fourth Elder is a Titled Douluo. If we can become his disciple, the connection between the Tiandou Empire and the Haotian Sect will only become deeper in the future.

"Your Highness, I will bring your requests back to the sect truthfully. As for the matter of becoming your disciple, we will talk about it later." The Fourth Elder would not easily agree to the other party's request.

Xue Xing naturally understood the other party's considerations, and he said: "Please ask the fourth elder to help us uncle and nephew eradicate Xue Qinghe."

Once Xue Beng loses his competitiveness for the throne, the uncle and nephew will become abandoned. By then, there will be no one to help them.

The heir to the throne has not yet been determined, and they only have this one chance to turn defeat into victory.

"Don't worry, if Xue Qinghe really has any connection with the Spirit Hall, he will definitely not be able to inherit the throne." The fourth elder said fiercely.

…

After receiving a positive answer, Xue Xing hurriedly led people to Xue Ye's bedroom.

There are layers of guards in front of the gate, and Xue Qinghe has been waiting here for a long time.

"Uncle, where did you take Tang San? If you delay the treatment, I will not let you go."

Xue Xing quickly explained, "Nephew, I informed these two of my brother's condition on the way. I'm sure they will be able to make a better judgment when they see my brother."

"Your Highness, we meet again." Tang San bowed slightly and said politely.

He still didn't believe that the gentle Xue Qinghe would have anything to do with the Spirit Hall. Moreover, he didn't like Xue Xing and his nephew. Even if Xue Xing explained that they had no choice, Qin Ming's death was a fact, and no matter how Xue Xing explained, it seemed pale and powerless.

"Tang San, you guys go in and see father first." Xue Qinghe sighed and made way.

Xue Xing knew that the other party would not let him in, so before Tang San entered the bedroom, he quickly winked.

Xue Qinghe saw all of this, and he already knew Xue Xing's plan.

Under the leadership of Xue Qinghe, Tang San and the four elders saw Xue Ye lying on the hospital bed without any hindrance.

"Father, you must hold on. My brother has already gone to find a doctor, and you will definitely get better." Princess Xue Ke half-knelt in front of the bed, already crying her eyes out.

"Royal sister, let's go out first. Leave this to Tang San." Xue Qinghe patted her back gently, took her hand, and stepped aside.

"Tang San, please save father." Xue Ke said with tears in her eyes.

Tang San nodded slightly, without saying much, he quickly came to Xue Ye's bed.

He slowly lifted the quilt, and just as he was about to feel Xue Ye's pulse, he was surprised to find that Xue Ye had a silent sleeve arrow in her hand. Before he could speak, the sleeve arrow was fired by an invisible force and pierced Xue Ye's body.

The bloody sleeve arrow was finally nailed to the wall of the bedroom.

"Father!" Xue Ke's eyes opened wide, her body softened and she fell down.

Xue Qinghe quickly supported her and said angrily: "Tang San, you actually dared to assassinate my father. Tell me, who sent you? Was it Yuexuan?"

Tang San stood up slowly. He had never expected the situation before him.

Even the fourth elder beside him did not notice the existence of the hidden arrow when the quilt was lifted.

The location of the sleeve arrow was very tricky, and it pierced Xue Ye's heart and went out of his chest. At this moment, even if a god came, Xue Ye would not be saved.

The most important thing is that this silent sleeve arrow is Tang San’s masterpiece.

"Your Highness, the sleeve arrow was in His Majesty's hand. It was fired as soon as I lifted the quilt. This was not my doing." Tang San explained hurriedly.

Xue Qinghe sneered: "Tang San, since it wasn't you who did it, then cooperate with the investigation. Come, check Tang San carefully!"
