"Master, this isn't a spectacle for us to get involved in, is it?"
At the entrance of an alley not far from the Shu King's Mansion, Zhang Shoucheng cautiously peeked into the distance.
"If you don't come here to join in the fun, do you want to join in the fun at the Prince of Zhennan's mansion?"
Zhang Tao said.
“Master, we can completely avoid joining in the fun.”
Wouldn't it be better to just find somewhere to hide and get away from all this trouble?
Zhang Shoucheng muttered to himself.
"If you don't join the crowd, you might become the crowd!"
Zhang Tao shook his head with a wry smile.
He wanted to avoid it, but what happened today was just too bizarre.
Tuoba Ye's death sparked a conflict between the Zhenwu Division and the Shu Prince's Mansion.
The Jixia Academy, the Jianmen Gate of Shu Prefecture, and the Western Regions were all drawn into the conflict.
If there is a mastermind plotting behind the scenes, it means that the mastermind is not afraid of being invincible.
Of course, if that were the only thing...
Then the master and disciple could have easily hidden in the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, since the Zhennan Prince had kept a low profile since entering Tiandu.
Even when Li Fan arrived in Tiandu, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion did not send anyone to intervene.
A man like Prince Zhennan, who kept a low profile, shouldn't have attracted trouble, but in fact, Prince Zhennan's mansion has gotten itself into a huge mess.
Not only did the woman from Linlang Palace arrive, but Zhang Tao couldn't understand the person who came with her at all, which spoke volumes.
......
The villa of Prince Zhennan is not far from Prince Shu's mansion.
The two houses are no more than three miles apart at their shortest point.
At this moment, within the villa of the Prince of Zhennan, a force was also brewing, as if a storm was brewing.
Zhou Qingtian frowned and paced back and forth in the reception room.
Besides him, there were two other people in the reception room.
The two were none other than Yang Dong and his companion, who had arrived late at night.
After some time, footsteps could be heard outside.
Hearing the noise, Zhou Qingtian quickly looked towards the door.
Wang Bao rushed in, carrying a person.
As soon as he entered the door, he knelt on the ground.
"Your Highness, when I found Zhang Qing, he had already committed suicide!"
"You worthless wretch, what use are you!"
Zhou Qingtian angrily flicked his sleeve, unleashing a torrent of powerful true energy.
Wang Bao was thrown into the distance like a tattered sack.
On the ground, only a sallow-faced corpse remained.
Zhou Qingtian looked at Yang Dong apologetically and said, "Seniors, this was all my oversight."
If you two trust me, please give me time to investigate.
No matter what forces are behind Zhang Qing, I will find out.
Yang Dong narrowed his eyes, a hint of murderous intent flashing within them.
What a coincidence! The spy died as soon as he arrived.
He had reason to suspect that Zhou Qingtian was inextricably linked to the people behind the Northern Frontier Situation.
Just as Yang Dong was about to lose his temper, Xiao Qing spoke up, "In that case, I'll have to trouble Your Highness."
Before the Royal Secret Realm opens, we hope you can find out who's behind it all.
After saying that, Xiao Qing pulled Yang Dong away.
Only after the two had completely disappeared from Zhou Qingtian's sight did he reach out and wipe the sweat from his forehead.
This hurdle is temporarily over.
Li Fan, don't let me down!
Zhou Qingtian prayed in his heart.
He did not investigate Zhang Qing's background in detail.
However, this person has been trained by his father as a loyal bodyguard since childhood, so he is not loyal to himself, but probably to the royal family.
Zhou Qingtian knew very well that the true power of the royal family could not possibly be what it appeared to be.
He was also certain that his second brother had not received support from this force.
Li Fan's arrival in Tiandu will surely result in the death of his second brother.
With Chen Kui on board, they will surely be able to accomplish this.
When the throne becomes vacant, the true leader of the royal family will inevitably emerge.
My performance this time, coupled with my decent relationship with Li Fan, has given me a reason.
When the time comes, who will be able to compete with me for the throne?
Even if the Ziyang Immortal Sect came, they could not find a more suitable candidate than themselves.
This is his reason for sending people to kill Zhang Qing!
......
"The Zhenwu Division has certainly got some nerve."
"You dare to investigate even my people from the Western Frontier?"
The Shu King's Villa, Council Hall.
Before the people from the western border arrived, their voices preceded their arrival.
Upon hearing this, King Zhou Zhenbian of Shu finally felt relieved.
With the people from the Western Region in charge, even if the Sword Emperor is not there, he is not afraid of the strongmen of the Zhenwu Division.
"West Frontier my ass!"
Before the Western Region expert could finish speaking, one of the people from the Zhenwu Division made a move.
A blood-red blade flashed out in an instant.
Inside the council chamber, cracks stretched for hundreds of meters in the pitch-black space.
"You bastards, how dare you launch a sneak attack! I think you really don't want to live anymore!"
A cold snort came from outside.
Lei darted out from the crowd with lightning speed.
Ultimately, the matter is related to his younger brother.
Since the Buddhist monk himself stepped forward to support him, he naturally had to do something.
Lei Xun made a grasping motion in his hand, and a long sword appeared in his grasp.
The longsword was entirely silver-white, and the moonlight shone down, creating ripples on its surface.
As Lei Xun drew his sword, he became one with the sword, transforming into a silver lightning bolt that shot towards the blade's light.
Rumble!
The collision of true energy caused a violent explosion.
The entire courtyard was instantly reduced to ruins.
The torn void swallowed the energy.
Lei Xun came quickly and left even faster.
The power contained within the flashing blade was something he simply couldn't withstand.
Just as he was about to crash into the ground, a hand braced against his back.
"Thank you, clan chief!"
The person who made the move was none other than Yelü Boqi.
"Hmph, courting death!"
Yelü Boqi snorted coldly and stomped his foot down heavily.
Boom!
In an instant, the earth was torn apart.
A violent shockwave tore through the earth and hurtled towards the reception room.
That terrifying power was even more terrifying than the blade of light that had been shot out earlier.
Long Daoji was certain he couldn't withstand this attack.
Of course, he doesn't need to block it.
A golden light shot out from the crowd.
Immediately afterwards, a deafening roar of a beast could be heard.
Seven dragons and seven elephants, fourteen colossal beasts as if cast in gold, suddenly appeared.
Tong Wu stood outside the council hall and stomped his right foot down heavily.
Thump!
With a muffled thud, the earth began to vanish.
The shockwave that came from afar collided with the power that annihilated everything.
With a "whoosh" sound, the two forces vanished instantly.
If it weren't for the expanding void rift beneath Tong Wu's feet, some might have thought this attack was all bark and no bite.
Having faced this attack head-on, Tong Wu could feel its immense power even more.
If it were me from the previous battle in Jiangzhou, I might have actually suffered a loss in the face of this attack.
The person before me is indeed quite strong.
If placed on the Heavenly Hero Ranking, he would probably be at least in the top five.
Of course, this was just Tong Wu's estimate, since he was unsure whether the person in front of him had gone all out.
......
Upon seeing Tong Wu emerge, Yelü Boqi's brows furrowed deeply.
The person in front of him actually made him feel a sense of crisis.
Adding to the swordsman who made the move earlier, the number of powerful figures in the Zhenwu Division is ridiculously high.
Although Yelü Boqi was not a Zhou person, he still had some understanding of the top power of the Great Zhou.
After the palace, the government office, and the pavilion, there are the four offices.
The Zhenwu Division is only one of the four divisions.
Just as Yelü Boqi was pondering, Lei Xun, who had been blasted away, flew back and said, "Tong Wu, I think your Vajra Sect doesn't want to survive anymore?"
