Chapter 173: Past Events of Nanshang



"Xiao Zeming!" Xiao Zechuan's expression darkened. "What do you want to see me for?"

Xiao Zeming was not as good-looking as Xiao Zechuan. He had slanted eyes, and when he looked at people, he had a domineering aura. He sneered, "I didn't intend to do anything. I just wanted to catch up with my brother."

Xiao Zechuan's expression was indifferent: "I am busy."

After saying that, Xiao Zechuan walked towards the stone gate of the flower cave. At the same time, he took out a purple gold token in his hand, which was the proof of his identity as the prince.

As soon as he showed the token, the guard leader waved his hand and asked several gatekeepers to open the stone door of the flower cave.

Six 'waiters' followed closely behind Xiao Zechuan, with their heads lowered, seeming a little panicked.

"Royal brother, are these the ones you are offering to the goddess of flowers? That's a bit too shabby." Xiao Zeming narrowed his eyes and swept his sharp gaze over the six people pretending to be waiters.

Xiao Zechuan didn't bother to pay attention to him. When the stone door was opened, he saw that it was dark and gloomy inside, revealing a hint of weirdness. The rich fragrance of flowers mixed with the fishy smell of blood hit his face, making him feel nauseous.

He walked into the flower cave without hesitation.

Chen Yan and the others were not as calm as Xiao Zechuan, they couldn't help but frown.

Pei Wusu was allergic to pollen, and the strong fragrance of flowers made him feel extremely uncomfortable. He wanted to cough, but in order not to reveal his identity, he used his spiritual power to suppress the discomfort.

He lowered his head, his face was dotted with red spots, and his skin became swollen.

Chen Yan noticed Pei Wusu's situation. He was enduring it with great difficulty, but unfortunately, as a waiter he was not allowed to wear a face mask.

As soon as he stepped into the flower cave, Chen Yan felt a sense of danger in his heart.

Just as the stone door was closing, Xiao Zeming suddenly spoke up: "I have also brought some 'supplements' to offer to the Flower Goddess."

The guard leader's voice came: "Third Prince, please come in."

Chen Yan frowned. The third prince actually followed in.

The Flower Cave is an underground city, so as soon as you come in, you have to walk down the stone steps first. The staircase is dark. Xiao Zechuan walks in front, and the six people follow closely, going down step by step. Screams can be heard from the city below from time to time, which makes people's scalps numb.

At this time, the Third Prince Xiao Zeming quickly passed Chen Yan and the other six and came to Xiao Zechuan's side. He stared at Xiao Zechuan with eyes as deep as the sea, and said with a smile: "Royal brother, I heard that you not only got into the Western Region College, but also entered the Secret Academy. Royal brother, you are really amazing!"

Although it is a compliment, if you listen carefully, it is not difficult to hear that it is a mockery.

Xiao Zechuan remained silent.

Seeing Xiao Zechuan's arrogant look, Xiao Zeming suddenly became angry: "Xiao Zechuan! Don't think you are great just because you entered the Western Region Academy! I know you came with the team from the Random Secret Academy. What? Do you want to abandon them? Or do you want to betray them? If I tell them..."

Xiao Zechuan shot him a cold look, "Third brother, you talk too much."

Seeing that he finally reacted, Xiao Zeming gave him a mean smile: "Xiao Zechuan, are you afraid that I will tell them what you have done? Indeed, if the people in your team knew that you are cold-blooded, suspicious, scheming, and even willing to turn your back on people, I'm afraid they wouldn't tolerate you!"

At this time, Chen Yan and the other six people all took Xiao Zeming's words into their ears.

They looked at each other. Xiao Zeming was indeed right. Xiao Zechuan was a very cunning and suspicious person.

As for whether it can be tolerated?

We have to wait until this matter is over before making a decision.

Xiao Zechuan did not respond to Xiao Zeming's words. He pursed his lips, frowned slightly, and his fox eyes seemed to contain a deep look.

This long staircase had a slight echo, so their footsteps became more obvious.

When Xiao Zeming saw Xiao Zechuan's gloomy face, anger rose in his heart. He clenched his fists tightly, and finally waved his sleeves fiercely and snorted coldly.

Chen Yan took in Xiao Zeming's forbearing look.

Are these two brothers friends or enemies?

The third prince Xiao Zeming seemed to care about Xiao Zechuan very much and wanted to get his attention, but Xiao Zechuan completely ignored him.

When they were about to reach the last step, Xiao Zechuan suddenly attacked Xiao Zeming and knocked him unconscious with a single slash of his hand!

"You..." Xiao Zeming felt a pain in his neck, his pupils widened in shock, and a look of disbelief flashed across his eyes.

Xiao Zeming was knocked unconscious and fell on the steps.

Wen Yuchu straightened his back, a faint smile on his lips, and deliberately asked Xiao Zechuan: "Do you want to kill him?"

When Xiao Zechuan heard this, he glanced at Wen Yuchu sharply.

Wen Yuchu was not afraid at all. He was not wearing the silver mask now, but a human skin mask. When he smiled, he looked like a wild beast waiting for an opportunity, making people feel extremely dangerous.

Xiao Zechuan's face was tense, he looked at Chen Yan and said, "Keep him alive."

Chen Yan said calmly: "It's up to you."

Wen Yuchu added: "I thought the Third Prince had a grudge against you, but I didn't expect it was the person you protected. Xiao Zechuan, you hid it very well."

Yu Changying said softly, "Brother Yuchu, it's time to get down to business. Don't worry about the affairs of other brothers."

"Sister Changying is right." Wen Yuchu put away his smile.

At this time, Pei Wusu was feeling extremely unwell. After taking a pill, he put on his mask again to block out some pollen.

Chen Yan sent a message to Xiao Zechuan: "Who do you want to save?"

Xiao Zechuan looked at Chen Yan deeply, "Save... my sister."

Imperial sister?

Chen Yan continued to transmit the message, but this time, she was transmitting it to Jiang Xianyue and the others. "What's going on with the Flower God here? Is there any trap? Or is there a dangerous person? You have to explain it to us first."

Hearing this, several people looked at Xiao Zechuan.

Xiao Zechuan looked at them, his mind conflicted for a moment, but he finally stopped hiding it and transmitted his message, "Over a hundred years ago, the Southern Shang Kingdom was still just a medium-sized country. Later, a powerful demon signed a contract with the Southern Shang Emperor. The demon would help the Southern Shang Emperor strengthen the country, and the Southern Shang Kingdom would need to provide the demon with blood, and the only source of this blood could be humans."

"While the Southern Shang Emperor was providing blood to the demon, the demon used his magic to make the Southern Shang soldiers stronger and stronger. The Southern Shang Kingdom continued to expand its territory and eventually gradually established itself as a great power in the Pingze Western Region."

"The Southern Shang Emperor was very happy at first, but gradually, he found that the number of death row prisoners was decreasing, and the blood of the death row prisoners alone could no longer satisfy the demon. Later, the Southern Shang Emperor secretly sent people to capture some ordinary people and offer them to the demon. The stronger the demon, the more blood he needed. Therefore, more and more people died in the Southern Shang Kingdom."

Xiao Zechuan paused for a moment, his eyes dark and unclear, and continued in a voice transmission: "The cultivators of Nanshang Country have discovered something is amiss, because this imperial city is filled with a strong smell of blood..."
