1736 I'm convinced. I'll call you if you have any questions.

Go and ask Princess Xiling for clarification?

No matter whether it was Lord Lingbao or Lord Xuanyue Palace, they were not willing to ask too clearly about this matter. It was better to be a little vague about this matter. Anyway, even if people suspected the Ninth Prince, they would not dare to do anything to him.

If this matter is questioned too clearly, and accidentally, what he did in private is asked about, how can Tianqiong Castle and Xuanyue Palace face the world of martial arts?

But their refusal was of no use. The Ninth Prince gave orders instead of asking for their opinions. He gave a look to the Black Cavalry, who then walked up to the female knight and brought out Princess Xiling without any hesitation.

"I am the princess of Xiling. Do you want to cause a war between the two countries?" Princess Xiling gritted her teeth and showed her arrogance. The Black Knights were not talkative people, so they would not say: Does Xiling have the courage to fight us? Even if they have the courage, they will not go to war for you.

The Black Knight just looked at Princess Xiling coldly, as if he was looking at an ant, which made Princess Xiling very uncomfortable, and her beautiful face also became more fierce.

When Princess Xiling was brought before everyone, she was no longer as charming and beautiful as before. Her hair was disheveled and her clothes were torn. However, she was even more arrogant, which was in sharp contrast to her previous friendliness.

Princess Xiling's action also made everyone understand that the so-called friendliness of the royal family was only superficial. The royal family was proud in their bones, and they would never look down on warriors.

"Dongling Jiu, ask your people to release me. I will not hold today's incident accountable." Princess Xiling spoke first.

“Tell me the identity of the devil, and I will let bygones be bygones for what happened today.” The Ninth Prince threw the words directly in Princess Xiling’s face, reminding her that the person who really had the right and qualification to let bygones be bygones was him, Dong Lingjiu.

“You…” Princess Xiling took a deep breath, her proud chest rising and falling, showing how angry she was: “Dongling Jiu, I said, I don’t know that person.”

"The princess has a bad memory. Please help her wake up." The Ninth Prince's calm words made everyone present feel uneasy.

It sounds good to wake up the brain, but it is actually torture. He dared to torture even the princess of a country, so what are these people in the eyes of the Ninth Emperor?

If you say you are not afraid, you are lying. No one in the martial arts world has the spirit of risking their head or their life. You only have one life, and if you lose it, your life is over.

"Dong Lingjiu, what are you going to do? How dare you torture me?" Princess Xiling's face turned pale. Looking at the black cavalry getting closer and closer, her pupils shrank sharply and a trace of fear flashed in her eyes.

“No, I am just reminding you, princess, in case you become too forgetful.” As soon as the Ninth Prince finished speaking, Black Knight took out the dagger he carried with him and walked in front of Princess Xiling.

As the knife approached, Princess Xiling trembled. The more pampered a person is, the more they cannot stand the slightest torture. The Black Cavalry did nothing, but Princess Xiling was frightened into a cold sweat.

The Black Knight sneered disdainfully, showing his white teeth: "Princess, please don't move. If I scratch you wrong, your face will be completely ruined."

"Stop, stop." Princess Xiling used all her strength to prevent herself from falling to the ground in fright.

She was a princess and she could not lose her composure, but the knife was getting closer and closer. Princess Xiling could already feel the tip of the knife against the back of her head. If she moved, the knife would cut off the back of her head.

The Ninth Prince had an indifferent expression, his gaze drifting into the distance, truly calm and composed...

Gulu… Princess Xiling stiffened her body and swallowed her saliva, her eyes full of struggle. Just as the knife slid down from the back of her head, Princess Xiling finally couldn't hold it anymore: "Stop, this palace, this palace remembers it."

Princess Xiling may not be afraid of death, but she is afraid of ruining her beautiful face like a flower.

"The princess has a good memory." The Ninth Prince praised without any emotion. Lord Ling's face became even uglier. He felt uneasy, fearing that Princess Xiling would say something.

On the other side, Feng Qingchen had also finished bandaging the Black Cavalry, and those injured martial arts disciples, with the help of the Black Cavalry, lined up one by one.

Feng Qingchen is the doctor, a somewhat stubborn doctor. Even though these people have just messed up the place and are now bowing their heads to apologize, Feng Qingchen has no expression. She only does what is within her job scope.

"This girl is so aloof, she's a perfect match for the Ninth Prince." The words of the Haotian Sect's Changmen attracted many people's agreement. After seeing the sudden change of expression of Princess Xiling and Nanling Jinfan, everyone felt that the Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen, who were consistent in their appearance and inner thoughts, were more in line with the appetite of people like them in the martial arts world. They didn't have so many twists and turns and dared not deal with people who were too shrewd.

Princess Xiling did not want to offend Nanling Jinfan, so she wanted to make up an identity to fool him. However, as soon as she opened her mouth, she met the eyes of the Ninth Prince that seemed to see through everything. She knew she could not deceive him, so she could only grit her teeth and reveal Nanling Jinfan's identity.

"Nanling Jinfan? The prince of Nanling. No wonder he calls himself the little king. This king does have some grudges with him." The Ninth Prince was not surprised at all, but he always had a blank expression on his face, so people would not think that he had known it for a long time.

Of course, apart from Nanling Jinfan's identity, Princess Xiling would not say a word, which made Lord Ling feel relieved.

"Nanling Jinfan? The prince of Nanling who was expelled from the royal family?" When Nanling Jinfan's identity was revealed, everyone's eyes widened.

"Is it the Nanling Jinfan who caused the death of hundreds of thousands of navy soldiers from the Four Kingdoms and Nine Cities at sea?" People in the martial arts world also care about national affairs. The incident of Nanling Jinfan caused a huge uproar. At that time, the Four Kingdoms and Nine Cities were looking for him everywhere. They didn't expect that he was hiding in the martial arts world and causing trouble as a big devil.

"No wonder he hates the Ninth Prince so much. I heard someone say that it was because the Ninth Prince was concerned about the whereabouts of the navy that he exposed this matter."

"This matter has nothing to do with the Ninth Uncle. Nanling Jinfan must not be able to survive in the Four Kingdoms and Nine Cities. He is mixed up with evil things and intends to control the martial arts world."

…

The Ninth Prince did not make any excuses for himself, but these people started discussing it indignantly.

Hot-blooded men are full of energy and are most easily instigated. Those who scolded the Ninth Prince before were just angry. They didn't have any brains and just believed whatever others said. Now that Princess Xiling has revealed the truth, these people are quite embarrassed when they see that they have wronged the Ninth Prince.

"Ninth Prince Uncle, um, we were wrong before. Please be magnanimous and don't bother with such rough people like us." Someone took the lead, and those who had blamed the Ninth Prince Uncle before came forward one by one. Some of them did not apologize sincerely, but were worried about the Ninth Prince Uncle's revenge.

The little Emperor Dongling is less than one year old. Even these people in the martial arts world know how powerful the Regent is. If the Ninth Prince really wants to destroy their sects, no one dares to say a word, because they were the ones who offended the Ninth Prince first.

Although they are not of low status, compared with the status of the Ninth Prince, it is not impossible to accuse them of using the lowly to humiliate the noble.

Whether it was the previous crusade or the current apology, the Ninth Prince had a blank expression on his face and didn't take these people to heart at all. The Lord of Lingbao felt bitter and bitter in his heart. The things that the Ninth Prince disdained were the things that he had been working hard for all these years but couldn't get.

"Ninth Uncle, we have offended you many times before. You are so magnanimous that you did not hold it against us. Our Haotian Sect will remember this in our hearts. Nanling Jinfan, that big devil, has done so many evil things that anyone should kill. If you find out the whereabouts of that devil, please inform our Haotian Sect. Our Haotian Sect will fight to the death to get rid of that devil." The head of the Haotian Sect was a smart man. Seeing that these people had been apologizing for a long time but had not gotten to the point, he took the initiative to step forward. Of course, he would not say it bluntly, but told our Ninth Uncle implicitly that they could run around for him.

The Ninth Prince did so much just to make them work for him. It is better to find a trustworthy master than to be cheated to death by others. Looking at the attitude of the Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen towards the Black Cavalry, we can see how much the Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen value their own people.

The Changmen of Haotian Sect was just the beginning. Smart people understood it immediately and came forward one by one to show their loyalty. At this moment, the Ninth Prince's expression finally changed a little.

"My dear heroes, this is so noble. I will take note of it. If there is any news about that evil Nanling Jinfan, I will inform you all." The Ninth Prince nodded slightly to show his acceptance.

The Ninth Prince was very satisfied with the surrender of these people. The top sects were good, but the top sects were full of arrogance, and there were only a few of them, so even if they could be of use, their usefulness was extremely limited.

The second- and third-rate sects are different. They have a large number of people and are powerful. If they are truly organized, they can definitely be a powerful force. And soon he will use this power to deal with Nanling Jinfan and Ye Cheng.

Of course, there are many sects that are willing to obey the orders of the Ninth Prince, but there are also sects that are unwilling to let go of their pride. They are very self-righteous. Although they are grateful to the Ninth Prince for saving their lives, they are unwilling to obey the orders of the court. They stand arrogantly beside Lord Lingbao and make their positions clear.

The Ninth Prince did not take the initiative to recruit this group of people, nor did he have any intention of unifying the martial arts world. This is good enough.

"It's getting late. Now that everything has been clarified, we should pack up and go down the mountain as soon as possible to prevent Nanling Jinfan from coming back and setting fire to the rock wall." The Ninth Prince's words were by no means alarmist. Everyone thought of this and their faces changed drastically.

"Uncle Nine is right. We should get down the mountain as soon as possible." Everyone immediately became nervous. Some people thought more: "I heard that Sky Dome Castle was burned down. Where will we live after we get down the mountain?"

Tianqiong Fort had set aside many courtyards to entertain major martial arts sects. Once something happened at Tianqiong Fort, it also affected their subsequent arrangements.

"Everyone, I will make arrangements for you all." Fort Ling had a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat. He wanted to kill someone, but he had to pretend that he didn't care about anything.

His Skydome Castle was burned down, but these people were only concerned about their own residences. They were truly selfish.

"With Lord Ling's words, we feel relieved."

Haha... these people are relieved too early.

The Ninth Prince glanced at Lord Lingbao, his eyes fell on the hairpin on Lord Lingbao's head, he gently closed his eyes and smiled...
