Chapter 425 Game and Psychology
Within the fiefdom of the King of Xiang, Chu Tianran and others have been trying to find people they can control in various places during this period.
The world is bustling with people seeking profit. In fact, the problem is not the King of Xiang who is a great emperor, but how to get more manpower in his hands.
In the disguise of truth and falsehood, almost no one can tell who is who.
At one stall, Jiubao had already left, and Chu Tianran and Zhao Linger were eating braised pork at the stall.
Not far away, Xiang Wang's counselor Jia Ming came and sat down.
"Recently, the various vassal kings have been fighting fiercely. Once their strength is weakened, the King of Xiang will naturally welcome the Crown Prince to the court and then mobilize all his forces to welcome the Crown Prince back to the throne. That's when you'll be needed to take action. Rest assured, as the King of Xiang's men, you will definitely not be treated unfairly in the future."
Chu Tianran looked over curiously.
"The Crown Prince has already announced to the world that whoever enters the capital first and kills the rebel Xu Tang will directly seize the throne. This is what the Crown Prince said himself. Why do we still need to welcome the Crown Prince to the court?"
"Wouldn't it be nice to be the emperor yourself?"
Jia Ming hesitated for a moment, then smiled.
"The King of Xiang was personally appointed by His Majesty. Without His Majesty, how could the King of Xiang rule the world today, let alone achieve the current achievements? Even if His Majesty and the Emperor are in danger, why shouldn't we repay them with courtesy and return the country to the hands of the Crown Prince?"
"I don't think it matters. The Crown Prince said that as long as the country is named Daqian Dynasty, it doesn't matter who becomes the emperor. I think the Crown Prince has reached the end of his rope. Moreover, with this law, even if the two princesses from outer space return, I'm afraid no one can influence the selection of the emperor, right?"
Chu Tianran spoke calmly, and Jia Ming suddenly paused.
Two princesses, which two...
"Hey, don't you know there's a King Si and a King You, who share the empire outside the former Daqian Dynasty? The eldest princess is Chu Mu, and the second princess is Ye Yao?"
Jia Ming had some impression.
"You guys even know this?"
Then you must be the prince.
"Everyone has heard of it, right? Military Advisor, isn't your information a little outdated..."
Jia Ming was suddenly embarrassed.
"To be honest, my impression wasn't that good. But now that I think about it, it seems like both princesses disappeared when they were three years old and never showed up again. And that fiefdom was also jointly managed by dozens of kings of different surnames. If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten..."
The key is that so many years have passed...
"Haven't you heard about that, Military Advisor?"
"what?"
"It was precisely because these two people offended a force in the Heaven Beyond Heaven and failed to wipe out that force, allowing the people of that force to escape, that led to the deaths of His Majesty and the Emperor..."
Jia Ming's face darkened.
"And now, I don't know if those two can leave their original power. If they can leave, even if Niu Xiaoma threatens their safety, I'm afraid the trouble won't be too big."
"The Emperor didn't seem to be a simple man back then, right?"
"It's certainly not simple. He single-handedly suppressed the dark turmoil, but it's a pity that his cultivation level has dropped strangely."
Jia Ming replied in a daze, as if he was thinking of what happened in the capital some time ago.
Damn it, now I remember why Niu Xiaoma attacked the Emperor and His Majesty, and why he kept saying he wouldn't kill them...
Anyone who dares to kill these two people will be retaliated against.
These two had actually already reached the Tianwaitian faction, and Chu Tianran had revealed that it was someone who had escaped after failing to exterminate the entire clan...
"Doesn't that mean both princesses are quite powerful?"
"I don't know exactly how powerful he is, but he shouldn't be simple. He even forced Niu Xiaoma into that state."
"I heard my master Zheng Hong mention it."
Chu Tianran said with a chuckle, "He's not native to the Tianxuan Continent. Although I don't know why he lives here, I've heard that he's incredibly powerful. I heard that the two princesses were taken in as personal disciples by the leader of a major force in the God Realm..."
Jia Ming's legs suddenly went limp.
What the hell...
Then why were they arrested? These two...
wrong.
Everyone knows what the Emperor did back then.
Suppress the dark turmoil, kill the Longevity Emperor, and kill nine emperors infected by darkness in the upper realm before permanently sealing them in the Supreme Emperor's Palace. Even if they encounter cultivators from that powerful force, they will definitely be formidable. Moreover, the two princesses back then were born with ultimate holy bodies, the kind that can cause strange phenomena in heaven and earth!
Jia Ming sensed something was wrong...
Damn, if I were a traitor, I would definitely be held accountable in the future. Even if Chu Ning is gone, these two girls are still here.
If I don't do it properly, then I can still get some benefits.
After hearing these words, Jia Ming synthesized some of the information he knew.
It seems to be true. There is no benefit for him to go against the dynasty. Even if the Prince of Xiang becomes the emperor, what does it have to do with me?
Chu Tianran saw Jia Ming's reaction and spoke curiously.
"Would you like a bowl of braised pork?"
"I won't come."
But his expression began to waver as he thought about these things. If the two princesses had died, it would have been fine. But they didn't die. They were both very talented and had powerful sects to support them. Wouldn't that mean they would die themselves?
Suddenly, the figure of King Xiang appeared beside several people. He smiled and walked forward to touch Chu Tianran's head.
"Little Brother Tianran, how's your cultivation progress lately?"
“So it’s the King of Xiang…”
Chu Tianran said helplessly: "I have reached the peak of the celestial realm and can no longer practice. My master told me that I can only break through by ascending, but I don't know when I can ascend. It's so annoying..."
The King of Xiang smiled and narrowed his eyes. "As long as you find the Crown Prince, kill the rebels, and welcome him to the court, you can ascend to heaven. By then, the world is so vast, where can't you go?"
"I heard that your Dragon Elephant Technique can make even Daoji cultivators look askance and unable to resist it. Is that true?"
Chu Tianran pulled Zhao Linger up and said with a smile: "We can all kill Daoji cultivators by force. Even with the Jiubao brothers, we can kill even the peak Daoji cultivators!"
"Oh?"
There was a hint of smile on the corner of King Xiang's mouth.
"I'm curious. How strong is the dragon energy cultivated by the Dragon Elephant Method compared to the dragon energy of my One Word King? How about a duel?"
"Of course, Brother Xiang Wang!"
Zhao Linger hurriedly poked Chu Tianran: "Tianran, is it appropriate for you to be brothers with the King of Xiang? We are the King of Xiang's subordinates, okay?"
Chu Tianran scratched his head in confusion.
"But the King of Xiang was the first to call me little brother, isn't that right?"
The King of Xiang was not angry.
"That's fine, let's just give it a try. Why don't the three of you come together?"
"Okay, I'll call Jiubao right away!"
Then the two of them went to call for help. Looking at their cheerful backs, the smile on King Xiang's lips froze, and he suddenly looked at Jia Ming.
Jia Ming, who was wondering what to do, was stunned...
"My Lord, what's wrong?"
"What did you say? What about the latest investigation?"
"It's becoming less and less likely... And hasn't the prince already been to Fang Houren's place? Has he met the crown prince?"
The King of Xiang looked extremely gloomy.
“I saw it…”
"He's the real prince, with dragon energy and bloodline, exactly the same as His Majesty the Emperor. His dragon energy directly outshines mine, it doesn't seem fake..."
Jia Ming was stunned for a moment, and said hurriedly: "Then now, we must respectfully welcome the prince back to the court. If there is any other way..."
"Jia Ming, what do you mean?"
The man's face was gloomy.
"Do you think I am willing to be a prince for the rest of my life?"
"Just find another way. It's not like there's no other way!"
"But I suspect that the prince and this prince are the same person, because I have never seen the prince's appearance. Let's try the dragon energy!"
"I see......."
A moment later, on the martial arts field.
The three men stood opposite King Xiang. Looking at the dragon energy emanating from the three people in front of him, King Xiang's expression slightly condensed.
These three people actually have dragon energy...
It's really bizarre.
But that dragon energy seemed to be imitating the shape of a real dragon, and was not the dragon energy of the dynasty itself.
In that case, let’s see how big of a surprise these three people can bring?
A four-clawed golden dragon suddenly appeared and instantly appeared above the martial arts field, and the power of heaven condensed in an instant!
King Xiang smiled slightly.
"I'm afraid it's not appropriate for me to fight you with the strength of the Great Emperor Dao Ji. It would be better to suppress the real Dao Ji. After all, the three of you said that you can steadily suppress Dao Ji cultivators and even kill them."
Chu Tianran smiled.
"That's Brother Xiang Wang!"
"I'm welcome!"
"Dragon-elephant phantom, appear!"
"Thunder punishment!"
A terrifying golden thunderbolt suddenly struck, and King Xiang was stunned for a moment!
No!
Is this guy so cunning!
By the way, what the hell is this dragon elephant? How can it summon heavenly thunder?
Zhao Linger did not hesitate and immediately shouted: "Dragon Elephant Phantom, show yourself!"
"Five Elements Trapping Technique!"
Jiubao also smiled.
"His Royal Highness the Prince of Xiang said so..."
"The gods and Buddhas transform into forms, the Great Compassion Mantra!"
The Tiandao Tongtian magic fell with a bang, Zhao Linger was imprisoned, Duobao was restricted, and Chu Tianran directly broke the four-clawed golden dragon illusion of King Xiang, and then a golden spear appeared on the huge dragon elephant body and was suddenly thrown into the sky!
"One becomes three thousand, the ultimate number, a killing formation!"
Countless powerful spears that could severely injure people at the peak of Daoji fell like raindrops, and the face of King Xiang changed drastically!
Is this a celestial phenomenon?!
Why wasn't it so strong when I was in the sky?!
Directly cut off my true dragon illusion, and then used this method again!
The key point is that the huge Dharma image is a bit weird!
If it was impossible to withstand it with Dao Ji's cultivation level, King Xiang's face changed drastically, and he immediately stopped all the attacks in front of him with his fingertips!
Chu Tianran exclaimed!
"Brother Xiang Wang! Why did you use that strength?"
"Didn't we agree that Daoji would treat the three of us as celestial beings?"
The King of Xiang felt somewhat devastated.
Can you even call this celestial phenomenon a celestial phenomenon...
It would not be an exaggeration to challenge a cultivator at the peak of Daoji alone, not to mention that three of them used that method directly, and what exactly is the purpose of that extreme method of transforming one into three thousand!
Who taught you that? Isn’t it a bit weird?
Moreover, the dragon and elephant move the five elements and attract the power of heaven. The key is that the little bald guy behind him can even bless your cultivation!
What kind of people are they? Can the prince do this even if he comes?
But the dragon energy is different from what you see, and it is also different from the one on your body.
These three people are so extraordinary!
King Xiang smiled and admitted it generously.
"If I were to cultivate to the highest level of Dao, I would not be your opponent."
The three of them restrained their attacks. Chu Tianran was so happy that he jumped up and shouted "Wuhu!"
"If Big Brother Xiang Wang is not our match, then we are invincible!"
"Hahaha, if gods stand in my way, I'll kill them. If Buddha stands in my way, I'll kill him!"
When the King of Xiang heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched.
This kid really looks a bit stupid, not steady at all. He is only twelve years old, but his cultivation level is really strong. If it weren't for the constraints of the Heavenly Dao, I'm afraid he would have broken through to the extreme level of cultivation, and then been blessed, and he couldn't be suppressed even with all his strength.
These three people are not the prince or his men, they are from very powerful backgrounds!
In that case, stay under my command!
"Later, let Jia Ming bring you to my palace, and I will personally entertain you!"
"Then I want to eat braised Xiang Wang brother!"
".......good......."
You've never eaten anything good, right? You guys just stare at braised pork every day. What good thing is that?
Forget it.
The King of Xiang immediately sent a message to Jia Ming.
"These three must be kept no matter what. Their future will surely surpass mine. They will be very useful weapons to deal with outsiders."
Jia Ming nodded.
But I was still thinking about what had just happened.
Damn, what should I do now...
Should I go to the King's rescue or follow the King of Xiang?
The prince has been found, and is being protected by Fang Houren. Who can kill Fang Houren? No prince in the world dares to make trouble, and they only dare to rush to the capital, unless they don't want to be the emperor legitimately.
Thinking about it...
Chu Tianran came to Jia Ming.
"Military Advisor, what are you thinking about?"
"Nothing."
"Oh, actually, I think the King of Xiang's methods are quite good, but we are actually better, it's just that our realm is suppressed."
"But the gap in realm is really huge. Niu Xiaoma said he was a Great Emperor, right? He was about to break through to the Immortal Emperor level, but such a person was actually chased and killed while his family was wiped out. It's hard to imagine how powerful the prince's sister must be."
Jia Ming's expression became even more solemn.
Yes, the emperor was forced into this state...
Then I have to think about finding a way out or something, at least look for both ways, if one day the King of Xiang goes crazy and wants to kill the Crown Prince, I will have some way out...
He couldn't help but look at the three people in front of him.
They are all geniuses, absolute geniuses. Even with his suppressed state, King Xiang couldn't beat them. He could only use his full strength to stop the method of transforming into three thousand.
"By the way, why don't you come to my house? My chef can make braised pork..."
First, I should recruit these three people to my own side, instead of the King of Xiang's side. Then, I can recruit more people and make it easier for them to join me later...
Otherwise, if you really get ripped off, you will suffer a huge loss.
