On the streets of Longdu.

A charlatan was stopping people to read their fortunes.

"Sir, would you like to read my fortune? You must pay~"

"I don't want to look at it." The young man waved his hand and left.

"Miss, this lady has a good face. Would you like to see her marriage? You must pay~"

The young lady covered her face with a round fan, shook her head shyly, and left quickly with her maid.

The charlatan saw that he had no money for food again and became discouraged.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a voice came from behind.

"Master, let me see it."

When the charlatan heard that business had come, he took the initiative to deliver it, turning around with shining eyes.

But when he saw that the rich man who offered to give him money was wearing a coarse linen shirt and a pair of straw sandals, with dirt between his toes, the smile on his face instantly collapsed.

"You..." Do you have money to tell fortunes?

He wanted to say that and looked the other person up and down with his triangular eyes, but then he thought: Forget it, the store hasn't opened yet today. What if the other person doesn't show off and has some money in his pocket? Wouldn't he run into him?

"Hey~" He forced a smile again: "Oh!" He suddenly looked at the other person in surprise.

The young man was startled by him: "What...what happened?"

"My dear, you have a square forehead, tiger-like eyes, a forehead that goes to the philtrum, and a good face. What a good face!"

The young man felt embarrassed by his praise and scratched the back of his head: "Haha, actually... I just want you to calculate whether I can pass the martial arts exam successfully this time."

The charlatan saw that the man had come to seek peace of mind before the exam, and knew that he had to say nice things in order to get a reward, so he started to make up a lot of nonsense, saying anything nice. Then, all of a sudden, he started to sell his talismans, claiming that they could increase his luck or something.

Isn't this a successful business?

As he spoke, the charlatan began to act in style.

He pinched his goatee and said, "Of course it is..."

The words haven’t been finished yet.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

Suddenly, many soldiers on horseback rushed over from a distance.

A tall carriage was escorted among the soldiers!

Judging from the design, it looks like an official vehicle.

They are very fast!

They rushed in recklessly, almost without caring about the lives of the people on the street!

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

It seemed that most people on the street had avoided it.

Even the charlatan immediately moved to the side of the road.

He thought the young man had come with him, but he found that he was still standing there.

"Hey, bro!"

The charlatan had no time to pull him away, so he could only shout at the side, asking him to get out of the way.

Seeing the horses approaching, the common people on the road thought that the young man would be killed under the horses' hooves and wheels.

Who would have thought that the young man was so talented and skilled in martial arts that he could escape danger in just a few moves.

After the soldiers and carriages passed.

The young man dusted off the dust on his body and said in dissatisfaction: "What kind of dignitaries are there in Longdu? Do they rush around like this on the streets?"

The charlatan ran over and just happened to hear his words. Seeing that he was unharmed despite the danger just now, he could not help but admire him: "You are really good at fighting, you managed to dodge such a close call."

"Haha," the young man felt embarrassed when he heard that the other party had changed his address from 'young man' to 'good man', and said, "It's not a big deal. Maybe I hunted too much in the past."

"Oh." The charlatan nodded.

"Oh, by the way, do you know who that was just now?" the young man asked casually.

"Did you see the pattern on the carriage? That's the emblem of the Taiwei Mansion. They are so eager to go there. Sigh, maybe the situation will change again."

Although the young man had little knowledge, he could still understand the hidden meaning of the charlatan's words.

Is the world going to change hands again?

"Master, can you really predict the future?" the young man asked excitedly.

The charlatan pretended to be profound and said: "It is normal for a hero to not know anything when he first arrives in Longdu. After staying here for a long time, he will naturally understand everything."

"Oh." The young man nodded doubtfully.

Then the charlatan brought a yellow talisman to him.

"What is this?" he asked.

The charlatan smiled and said, "This talisman that blesses a hero to win the championship is destined for you and me. Today it is half price!"

young people:"……"

·

The Dragon King's Palace.

General Lu's men have captured all the guards at the city gates. It can be said that almost everyone in the royal city is now his men.

Without even checking, he took Prince Jin in a carriage and went straight into the palace.

After getting off the car, General Lu looked at the Qinzheng Hall on the countless steps with a look of melancholy and yearning in his eyes.

This will be the beginning of his dream.

At this time, there was a noise behind me.

"Prince Jin, please come down quickly."

"I don't, I don't..."

"If you don't come down, the commander-in-chief will be angry."

“……”Lu Xianzong turned his head and looked.

Prince Jin was seen lying beside the carriage like a child, refusing to get off.

But when he saw the look in Lu Xianzong's eyes, he immediately obediently let the servants help him get off the carriage.

Then he lowered his head and walked to Lu Xianzong.

Lu Xianzong suddenly grabbed him with his sleeves and hands.

Yu Chengjin shuddered with fear.

However, Lu Xianzong did not rebuke him harshly as he did in the past, but waved his arm and said, "Prince Jin, look."

Yu Chengjin looked in the direction he pointed.

At the end of countless steps, there stood a magnificent palace.

"Don't you like building houses? Do you think that house is nice?"

"Hmm..." Yu Chengjin took a closer look and suddenly smiled: "It looks good."

"Do you want to go in and take a look?" Lu Xianzong tempted.

"Is it fun in there?"

"It's fun. There's a chair inside. As long as you sit on it, everyone will listen to you from now on."

"Will you listen to me too?" Yu Chengjin was most afraid of Lu Xianzong.

Lu Xianzong didn't expect him to ask this, but he was only one step away from success, so he didn't think much about it. He smiled and nodded, "Of course."

"Oh~~~" Yu Chengjin clapped his hands happily: "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go quickly."

Yu Chengjin was young and was the first to run up.

When Lu Xianzong arrived, he had already entered the hall.

Lu Xianzong then followed him in.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the door, I felt several cold shocks under my neck.

Looking up, I saw that there was already a person sitting on the supreme dragon throne.

It’s not Yu Chengjin who has a childish mind, but Yu Jiuchen who should have been buried in the royal enclosure long ago!

Didn't he fall into the crack and die long ago?

Why did you suddenly appear here?

"You...how come you..."

"What you want to ask is, how come I am still alive?"

Hearing this, Lu Xianzong's face gradually turned from shock to gloomy, because from Yu Jiuchen's tone, he should know everything.

Looking at the side, Yu Chengjin, who came in earlier, had already been captured and his mouth was blocked. No wonder there was no movement before. I believe he was caught as soon as he came in.

"Hahahaha..." Lu Xianzong suddenly burst into laughter.

While everyone's attention was distracted by his laughter, hundreds of soldiers immediately rushed in from behind him.

These are the private soldiers he has raised over the years.

Several of them were extremely skilled in martial arts, and they killed the guards who were holding weapons against Lu Xianzong's neck in just two or three moves.

Lu Xianzong was quickly surrounded by those people.

Seeing this, Qingya and Changle immediately brought people to protect Yu Jiuchen in the middle.

The fighting power of both sides was evenly matched, and the situation suddenly became serious.

Yu Jiuchen was making calculations in his mind, but even at this moment, he did not show any timidity or nervousness.

"General Lu, you were once a pillar of our dynasty, so why did you choose to be a traitor? If you surrender now, I promise that you will be held solely responsible."

Lu Xianzong sneered: "Want to persuade me to surrender? I wonder if Your Majesty has ever heard of 'no regrets after making a move'. As long as I win this chess game today, all that will be left in the history books is a single word about you, a foolish and incompetent deposed emperor.

And I will lead Yulong to a brand new future!"

Lu Xianzong spoke passionately, but was extinguished by Yu Jiuchen's words.

"Oh? In the new future, I wonder what role General Lu will take to lead Yulong."

Lu Xianzong: “…”

Yu Jiuchen continued: "Is he a minister or a king?"

“…”

"If it's the former, then you are a treacherous minister who commands the emperor and uses him to control the other princes!

If it is the latter, you are a traitor who is rebelling against the emperor and plotting to usurp the throne! Either way, you will be condemned to eternal damnation and deserve to die!"

Lu Xianzong was scolded by Yu Jiuchen so much that his eyelids twitched.

"Today, either you, the tyrant king, will die, or I will die!" He said in a deep voice: "Kill!"

At a command, the army behind him rushed into the hall.

"Protect His Majesty!" Chang Le shouted.

A large number of Royal Guards immediately appeared from the corner.

Judging from the number of people, they are really on par with Lu Xianzong's side.

Success or failure depends on this one move!

Both sides did not hold back, and soon they met each other and started fighting with all their might!

Yu Jiuchen and Lu Xianzong were like the general and commander on a chessboard, each fighting for their own position.

The two of them kept staring at each other, neither saying a word nor moving.

This is not just a contest of military strength, but also a gamble of morale and luck.

As long as they can keep stable, their soldiers will be in high spirits and fight for their Spring and Autumn hegemony!

At the same time, this is also a big gamble!

The two sides are evenly matched, it just depends on which one God favors more.

Chang Le was pleased to see that there were experts among the people brought by Lu Xianzong, and they had killed many of them in succession.

So he asked Yu Jiuchen for battle and said, "Your Majesty, please allow me to go and join the battle."

"Correct." Yu Jiuchen said immediately.

Before leaving, Chang Le reminded Qing Ya: "Protect His Majesty."

"Don't worry." Qingya said confidently.

Chang Le rushed out.

With Chang Le's joining, the situation on Yu Jiuchen's side immediately improved a lot.

At this time, the people around Lu Xianzong saw that the situation was not good and volunteered to fight.

"My lord, I am leaving now."

Lu Xianzong lowered his old eyes.

The man joined the battlefield holding two spiked rings.

Chang Le originally only had to deal with two people, which was just enough with his martial arts skills.

But with the addition of this third person, he was obviously struggling.

Qingya was watching from above and felt his teeth itching.

"These people are so shameless. Several of them are bullying Chang Le alone."

Yu Jiuchen also realized that although Chang Le was very good at martial arts, it was still too difficult for him to deal with three masters at once.

"Go and help him."

Hearing Yu Jiuchen's order, Qingya hesitated: "Ah? But..."

My duty is to protect you.

He didn't say the rest of the words, but Yu Jiuchen guessed it.

"That's an order."

Qingya was frightened by the way Yu Jiuchen gave the order.

Because Yu Jiuchen usually looks sickly, thin, gentle and affectionate.

When had Qingya ever seen Yu Jiuchen, with his sharp eyes and imposing aura?

At this moment, he seemed to see Yu Jiuchen transformed into a giant dragon holding up the sky, which made people want to bow down and surrender!

Qingya, who was always talkative, didn't dare to say a word this time. He swallowed subconsciously and just said, "Yes."

He turned around and jumped down to help Chang Le deal with those three shameless people!

On the other side, Lu Xianzong found that Yu Jiuchen finally had no decent guards around him, and his mouth corners immediately curled up.

The hidden chess pieces that were laid out before can finally come in handy.

Then a black shadow slowly came behind Yu Jiuchen. When everyone's attention was on the hall, he silently pulled out a dagger and pointed it at Yu Jiuchen's vest...
