C51 (1/2)
King ordered the Black Armor Battalion division to return to the capital, but he did not know whether it was because the Fourth Prince had returned to the capital, or because Xiao Dingtian had some other information.
”Crown Prince, are we really going back?” Wang Yan's face was full of confusion. Logically speaking, going back this time was equivalent to walking into a trap.
”Of course, this is a great merit, I must ask for Xiao Dingtian's help.” Qi Tianyu smiled lightly.
”Fourth Prince must have already returned to the capital, if we treat him like that, King will definitely make things difficult for us, going back would be too risky, why don't we just go straight ahead!”
Wang Yan said, a little depressed.
”Don't worry, as long as it's not an old guy with Profound Fire Sect, we can do whatever we want. Don't forget, we still have a Profound-rank Expert!”
Qi Tianyu smiled.
To show that his Black Wolf Stronghold had been subdued, Black Wolf followed along with them this time.
As for the Falling Phoenix Mountain, they were temporarily under Wang Mang and Hu Kun's control. The two of them were imprinted with Uppermost Eight Trigrams Spell and they could be used with ease.
As for the Marquis TIanyi, he continued to hibernate within the Elemental Stone Ore. After all, it was an extremely large Elemental Stone Ore, and any sect had to be jealous of him.
Furthermore, Qi Tianyu planned to establish a sect on top of it in the future, so he could not afford to lose that place.
The territory of Nanyang Kingdom was not big, and since the group of people were strong practitioners, it would only take less than two days for them to return to the capital from the Falling Phoenix Mountain.
The army was not allowed to enter the city, so Qi Tianyu and the rest were stopped at the city gate.
”Black Wolf, follow me into the city. Everyone else stay behind.” Qi Tianyu said.
Wang Yan did not speak, he nodded his head, this was what they had planned long ago, and wanted him to stay outside to support.
”King has ordered for General Qi Tianyu to enter the palace immediately!”
The Guard Commander Han Qian had already been waiting here, and was requested to follow him into the palace the moment he arrived.
”Then Commander Han, lead the way.” Qi Tianyu nodded and said with a smile that was not really a smile.
”Humph!” Han Qian snorted coldly, his expression turning ugly. Qi Tianyu's words were undoubtedly an insult to him, for the dignified commander of the imperial guards to actually want to lead the way for a brat.
”I'll let you be proud for a moment. Once you enter the palace, I'll let you have some fun.”
Han Qian sneered in his heart. He originally thought that if Qi Tianyu went to clean up the Black Wolf Stronghold this time, he would be dead for sure, but he never expected that the latter would actually return safely.
”Look, isn't that the heir to the Marquis TIanyi Palace, Qi Tianyu? I heard that a while ago, he went to clear out Black Wolf Stronghold. ”
”Hehe, I heard that his Black Wolf Stronghold was subdued by the Fourth Prince, but this Qi Tianyu has done meritorious military service, he actually attacked the Fourth Prince, and took all the credit for clearing his Black Wolf Stronghold.”
”What?” ”There's actually such a thing. This is simply too hateful.”
Along the way, there were people pointing and talking, and the entire Nanyang Kingdom was filled with the news of Qi Tianyu's meritorious military service, which was to attack the Fourth Prince.
”I have to admit that the younger generations are fearsome. To actually dare to make a move on Fourth Prince, I have begun to admire you.”
Han Qian said with a smile that was not a smile. Obviously, he already knew what was going on.
”It seems that you have already established the truth.” A cold glint flashed across Qi Tianyu's eyes as he laughed blandly.
Han Qian sneered, looked at the black wolf who had been silent the entire time, and the corner of his mouth raised into a strange smile. He had already known that the Black Wolf Stronghold was a chess piece the King had laid down long ago.
Black Wolf was one of them, when the time came, he would say the so-called ”truth” in front of everyone, and Qi Tianyu would intentionally attack the Fourth Prince, and would be convicted of conspiracy. At that time, he would have an excuse to eliminate Qi Family.
Xiao Dingtian was seated high above on the golden dragon throne. Beside him was another seat, which was currently occupied by the Fourth Prince with an ice-cold expression.
The moment Qi Tianyu walked into the hall, everyone's gaze turned to him.
”Qi Tianyu, do you know your crime!”
Xiao Dingtian's gaze was cold and harsh, his voice was imposing as he roared, and a strong pressure rumbled down as the entire hall trembled.
As the ruler of a country and an ultimate expert who stood shoulder to shoulder with Nanyang and Marquis TIanyi, Xiao Dingtian's might was simply astonishing.
Inside the palace, all the officials were trembling, even the Guard Commander Han Qian lowered his head.
Only Qi Tianyu was still standing there, perfectly straight. He looked at Xiao Dingtian with an indifferent expression, as if he was not affected by the latter's pressure in the slightest.
”Is this how King treats meritorious people when I return from clearing out Black Wolf Stronghold?”
Qi Tianyu said lightly.
”A meritorious person?” Hahaha, what shameless boasting, Qi Tianyu, how long are you going to keep pretending to be stupid for? ”
The Prime Minister Liu Qishan, who had lost an arm, was the first to jump out with a cold smile on his face.
”The Prime Minister's injuries have healed?” Qi Tianyu glanced at them and smiled playfully.
”You!” Liu Qishan's face turned green, a deep hatred could be seen in his eyes. He had been publicly ripped apart by his enemy, but there was nothing he could do about it.
”How dare you, Qi Tianyu, you who have been greedy for military merits attack the Fourth Prince, with the intention of rebelling, you think that pretending to be stupid will be able to get away with it?”
Liu Qishan sneered, and quickly brushed away his awkwardness, his words were sinister.
”Qi Tianyu, what else do you have to say for yourself?”
Xiao Dingtian glanced at Liu Qishan and said.
”Fourth Prince suddenly appeared in our Black Wolf Stronghold. I suspect that he has colluded with Black Wolf Stronghold, so we should take him down and interrogate him. Is there a problem with that?”
Qi Tianyu said lightly.
”How dare you!” ”Ridiculous!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd of officials turned pale with fright as they all scolded him.
”What a noble identity the Fourth Prince has, how could a lowly person like you possibly slander him. King, this child is arrogant, he does not even have a leader in this world, this old official recommends decapitating the masses, exterminating the nine great clans, as an example to others! ”
Liu Qishan was startled, he did not expect Qi Tianyu to speak so boldly, but deep down in his heart, he was ecstatic.
This brat had insulted the Royal Prince in such a manner, it was as if he was rubbing his neck against the edge of a knife.
”I second that!” I humbly request King to behead this arrogant person. ”
