BXBX NOVEL Chapter 38
They arrived at Qinghua Hall.
When they split up, Zhang Ronghua told him to guard the outside. Hide well and not be discovered.
As for him, he sneaked in and stopped in the back hall.
He mobilized his soul power and enveloped the hall.
After being tempered by the Great Dao Righteous Song, the quality of his soul power was very strong. Coupled with the fact that he had cultivated the Black Tortoise Spirit Technique to the point of Technique Close to the Dao, no one would notice unless he took the initiative to reveal it, or if the enemy’s soul power exceeded by too much.
The Black Tortoise Spirit Technique was a soul technique. Other than restraining aura, it could also simulate aura and have many wonderful uses.
In the palace.
Feng Zhengyi sat on the chair with a cold expression, his eyes as dark as water. What had happened today was a great humiliation to him. Princess Fenghe was dead and he wanted an explanation. He was actually humiliated like this and they even threatened to destroy the Nanman Kingdom.
At the same time, she was angry and helpless.
The strength of the Nanman Kingdom was too weak. Even a province of Great Xia was no match for them. No matter how unwilling they were, they had to endure it. This was reality!
Crown Prince Fengyi’s eyes were spitting fire as he walked around the hall, making loud noises. The more he walked, the more aggrieved he became. From time to time, he would stop and roar, pointing outside and cursing.
Suddenly, he stopped, his face ferocious. The veins on his forehead were twisted together. He could not suppress his anger. “I have to demand an explanation!”
He strode out.
Feng Zhengyi’s expression changed. He hurriedly rushed over and hugged him tightly from behind. He persuaded, “Your Highness, don’t do anything stupid! We’re living under someone else’s roof now. If we really anger them, everyone will die! Even the Nanman Kingdom will be finished.”
“Did Fenghe die for nothing?”
“With so many people watching, Great Xia will definitely give us an explanation! Otherwise, if their reputation is ruined, who will dare to believe them in the future?”
“No! Even if I have to risk my life, I have to see the Xia Emperor!”
He pried his hand away and threw him to the ground.
He walked out of the hall fiercely and shouted angrily, “Everyone, listen up! Follow me and attack.”
“Your Highness…”
Feng Zhengyi had just rushed up when Crown Prince Fengyi kicked him to the ground. This time, he fainted.
In the dark.
Zhang Ronghua’s eyes flickered. “Is it about to begin?”
The commotion here alarmed Lu Zhantang. He hurriedly rushed over with the people from the True Dragon Hall and the City Defense Division and blocked them at the courtyard gate.
Crown Prince Fengyi roared, “Get lost!”
Lu Zhantang did not take a step back. At this point, the only person who could save him was the Crown Prince. It was impossible to count on the higher-ups of the True Dragon Hall at all. They might even abandon him and let him fend for himself. He wanted to live, to have his family safe and sound, and to see his son grow up. He could only listen to the Crown Prince’s orders and carry them out to the end. “His Highness has ordered that no one is allowed to leave! Those who disobey will be killed!”
He was the first to draw the Azure Dragon Sword. The others also drew their weapons.
“You’re courting death!”
Crown Prince Fengyi drew his sword and roared crazily, “Kill!”
He was the first to charge forward. The Qiong Qi Guards and the experts of the Nanman Kingdom followed.
Lu Zhantang took a deep breath. At this point, there was no way out. Whether he lived or died depended on the Crown Prince. “Kill!”
The two sides fought fiercely, and people fell one after another.
A few minutes later.
The people of the Nanman Kingdom finally could not hold on against the encirclement of the True Dragon Hall and the others. They were forced to retreat step by step. Even Crown Prince Fengyi was covered in blood.
However, his eyes were bright and he was smug. No matter how smart they were and what status they had, they were still played by ‘them’.
‘That’s not enough!’
Although the Crown Prince could deal with Princess Fenghe’s incident, coupled with him, he wanted to see how he could suppress this matter.
He pointed at Lu Zhantang angrily. “Die!”
A sword light slashed down with a loud sword hum, aiming at his head.
“Hmph!”
Lu Zhantang looked disdainful and kicked him away.
Pffft!
Crown Prince Fengyi spat out a blood arrow and struggled to get up from the ground. His palms were weak, and he fell again. With unwillingness, he closed his eyes and died.
“Your Highness!”
Feng Zhengyi happened to wake up. He shouted sorrowfully and rushed up from behind. He hugged his corpse and gritted his teeth. “I’ll definitely ask the Xia Emperor for an explanation for this!”
His remaining rationality prevented him from rushing forward.
Lu Zhantang was also stunned. The power of this kick was controlled very well. It could not even injure him. It had only sent him flying. How did it kill him?
This was bad!
He was also flustered, but he could not panic yet. He had to save himself. He called his trusted aide over and said with unprecedented seriousness, “Go to the East Palace immediately and tell Your Highness that Crown Prince Fengyi is dead. Please be prepared, Your Highness!”
“Yes!”
His trusted aide also knew the seriousness of the matter. He did not dare to delay and rushed towards the East Palace without hesitation.
No one noticed.
The moment Crown Prince Fengyi fell to the ground, a soul rushed out of his body and went underground. Even Lu Zhantang did not notice. Without the control of this soul, his body would naturally die.
Zhang Ronghua had been watching and even recorded this scene with the voice-recording stone. Seeing this soul escape, he narrowed his eyes. “An evil spirit?”
The evil spirits were not ferocious spirits, but the souls of dire beasts.
Dire beasts were as famous as true spirits. Every adult dire beast had the ability to overturn rivers and stir seas, overturn the sun, moon, and universe. They also had innate divine powers. With their methods, it was very simple to hide it from others.
This evil spirit was very weak and was far from adulthood. It only had the cultivation of the middle-stage Earth-grade. He left a soul mark on its body and sent a voice transmission to Zheng Fugui, asking him to release a signal flare and call for help. He also had to control this place and don’t let anyone go, while keeping watch of Crown Prince Fengyi’s corpse.
“Cousin, where are you?”
He looked around. He was alone.
“This is a thousand-mile voice transmission. When His Highness comes, ask him to wait for news from me.”
He followed the soul mark left behind and chased after the evil spirit.
Zheng Fugui came out from the dark and took out a flare to release. It bloomed with beautiful fireworks in the sky and condensed into a black flood dragon. Anyone from the Flood Dragon Guard who saw the flare rushed over unconditionally.
He spat and wiped his face, removing the disguise.
Then, he entered the Qinghua Hall.
He stopped beside Lu Zhantang. “Surround them! Wait for the order.”
The latter knew this fool. He was the Crown Prince’s man. Seeing that he had arrived so quickly, he thought about it and guessed that this was a backup plan arranged by His Highness. He relaxed and did as he was ordered.
Night fell, and darkness enveloped the ground. Tonight was destined not to stop, making some people unable to sleep.
In the prison of the Ministry of Justice.
Wu Lizhi was expressionless as he stood at the door with his hands behind his back. He was the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice. He was in a high position and looked at the night as he waited for someone. Behind him stood a black-robed man, only his eyes showing. He emitted a cold aura.
