Chapter 426: A Generation of Kings
A raging fire broke out, and the smell of burnt wood filled the entire manor.
Looking at the ice and flames, the whole place fell into a deathly silence, and the crackling sound of the burning wood seemed so harsh at this moment.
The eyes of everyone looking at Ye Chen changed from the initial shock to the dull look now. This guy was too arrogant, especially on Situ Changtian's birthday to destroy the Situ family's manor. This undoubtedly slapped the Situ family's face hard.
A shocking murderous intent spread out, and Situ Changtian's remaining hesitation also dissipated, and a voice filled with murderous intent floated out: "Ye Chen, I will fight you to the death today!"
The sound was so loud that probably all the cities within a radius of dozens of miles could notice it.
The imperial capital covers an area that is beyond people's imagination, and in the center of the imperial capital are a series of palaces and attics.
The splendid palace and the magnificent attic are just like the palaces of Huangfeng Kingdom.
Wolong Pavilion used to be a forbidden area in the palace, and only direct descendants of the royal family could enter. The top floor of Wolong Pavilion, which used to be deserted, was filled with people, and the sky above was filled with stars.
The stars tilted down from the sky, and the most eye-catching one was undoubtedly a middle-aged man standing at the top. His royal robes were enough to show his identity. Qianchuan Jing, the current emperor of Huangfeng Kingdom.
Although Qianchuan Jing's appearance is not outstanding, just standing here gives people an inexplicable pressure. This is the pressure that belongs to the emperor.
Standing behind Qianchuan Jing were the direct descendants of the royal family, including Qianchuan Xue, Qianchuan Feng, Qianchuan Liu, and Qianchuan Yan.
At this moment, all of these people looked towards the direction of the Situ Family. The voices of Ye Chen and Situ Changtian were clearly heard here.
With his eyes closed tightly, Qianchuan Jing gently tapped the railing with his right hand, and a ding-dong-ding-dong sound was heard. An inexplicable smile appeared at the corner of the emperor's mouth.
"This son of the Ye family is quite good, his mind is as good as those old monsters, and his cultivation is even more powerful! If any of you can outperform him, I will feel free to pass the throne to him!" Qianchuan said calmly in surprise, but other
The plain words caused an uproar among the direct descendants of the royal family. Those princes all had their eyes flickering and were thinking secretly.
A complicated look flashed across Qianchuan Xueqi's face. This was the first time she heard her father praise someone so much. Ye Chen, are you really that good?
"Father! This move by the head of the Ye family is reckless. He actually provoked the Situ family in this way. From my perspective, it is undoubtedly an unwise move!" Among the many princes, a young man dressed as a frail scholar stepped forward and whispered.
road.
This young man's name is Qian Chuangu, he is the current eldest prince of Huangfeng Kingdom, and he is also the most promising person to inherit the throne.
Hearing this, Qianchuan opened his eyes for the rare moment of surprise, glanced at Qianchuangu, and said calmly: "Based on your words, isn't this son of the Ye family a reckless person?"
The majesty of the emperor was unmistakable, but his brief words contained an inexplicable pressure. The direct descendants of the royal family who were quite arrogant in the past also behaved extremely humbly in front of him.
"Killing people in the imperial capital is against the law. The generals can use this reason to make the Ye family pay some price. But this Ye Chen didn't know how to restrain himself and instead provoked the Situ family. Those three swords undoubtedly made the Situ family lose face, and in the meantime
Someone must have died at Ye Chen's hands. Firstly, the general would have enough reasons to make the Ye family pay more. Secondly, the Ye family and the Situ family would become old enemies. After the Ye family suffered heavy losses from mysterious forces,
It is undoubtedly unwise to provoke such an enemy! Therefore, in the eyes of the minister, Ye Chen's move is undoubtedly unwise!" Qian Chuangu's analysis was logical, and his words were undoubtedly approved by most people present.
Hearing this, Qianchuan Guze smiled faintly, turned around, looked at the many direct descendants of the royal family, and said lightly: "You think so too!"
Seeing this, some princes nodded one after another, but Qianchuan Feng did not agree. He took a few steps and saluted Qianchuan: "Father, my views are somewhat different from those of my second brother!"
"Old Seven! Tell me what you think!" Qianchuan Furujian spoke out, with a rare look of expectation on his brows.
"I think Ye Chen's move seems extremely reckless, but everything is carefully considered!" Qian Chuanfeng said thoughtfully. Ever since he learned that the young man in black robe was Ye Chen, he could never forget that sentence.
Seeing the slightly expectant look in Qianchuan Jing's eyes, Qianchuan Feng remained neither arrogant nor impetuous and continued to analyze: "With the wisdom of Ye Chen and others, they must have guessed that the person behind the scenes is definitely not from the Situ family.
But the royal family! After Yejiafang City was destroyed, Ye Chen's actions were undoubtedly for the next action! Situ Long's previous massacre of innocent people in the destroyed city undoubtedly aroused the public indignation of the city residents.
Therefore, Ye Chen did not have any restraints on this killing, because he had a legitimate reason to kill and seek justice for the innocent citizens who died tragically!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately aroused reflection, including Qianchuan Gu, who had previously been disapproving of it.
"Those who have gained the right will get more help, while those who have lost the right will get less! There is an old saying: He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world. This statement is not groundless. Although the Martial God Continent respects military force, the empire uses military force to govern the country! However, if the empire within the
If all the people object, then the rule of this empire has come to an end! But now the seemingly reckless behavior of this son of the Ye family is disguised as the reason to stand up for the people. Haha, if the lonely king pursues him for this, wouldn't it be
Go against the people! Then the reputation of the royal family in ordinary city names will inevitably plummet. Do you think it is worth it? Haha, when killing is put on the cloak of standing up for the people, it is not killing, but crusade!" Hearing this, Qianchuan
Surprised by the rare expression of appreciation in his words, he said solemnly: "Yes, the analysis is well organized!"
"However, what are the benefits of doing this? The Situ family has become a powerful enemy out of thin air!" Qianchuangu said still unwillingly.
With a calm smile, Qian Chuanfeng first looked at Qian Chuan Jing, and when he saw Qian Chuan Jing nodding, Qian Chuan Feng said: "It is naturally beneficial for him to do this! First, seeking justice for the Situ family for those who died innocently and tragically, that ordinary person
How do the citizens of the city view him? After today, the reputation of the Ye family in the empire will definitely skyrocket! Secondly, the Situ family had previously started to oppose the Ye family. Ye Chen's move undoubtedly showed the Ye family's tough attitude and at the same time took revenge.
Considering the previous actions of the Situ family, thirdly, Ye Chen openly killing people in the imperial capital is undoubtedly a warning to the royal family!"
"Warning?" Qianchuan Gu agreed with the first two points of Qianchuan Feng, but he disagreed with the third point: "Seventh brother, you can think of this!"
"It's a warning! Warning the royal family not to go too far! Otherwise, second brother, what do you think?" Qianchuan Feng shook his head slightly, not caring at all about the ridicule in Qianchuan Gu's words.
"Well! What Feng'er said is true. Recently, the royal family has pushed the Ye family too hard!" Qianchuan Jing ignored the tone of his two sons. In his opinion, only competition can choose the most capable successor.
who.
Qianchuan Jing's words undoubtedly confirmed Qianchuan Feng's statement. After speaking, Qianchuan Jing closed his eyes again, and his soul power surged out again!
The sky above the Situ Family was filled with murderous aura, and the entire starry sky looked extremely gloomy. Situ Changtian seemed to have real murderous intent at this moment. The aura of his cultivation was no longer concealed, and the terrifying aura spread over the Situ Family.
He was clearly a fake Soul Martial Realm warrior. Situ Changtian was confident that he could keep Ye Chen here today, but the price he paid might not be what he could bear.
A solemn expression appeared on Ye Chen's face, and Situ Changtian's powerful aura made him quite afraid.
After a few breaths, Ye Chen softly said: "Fake Soul Martial Realm!" At this moment, the breath Situ Changtian gave Ye Chen was very similar to the feeling Ye Wen gave him. Therefore, he could roughly guess Situ Changtian's cultivation.
for.
"You are the first opponent who forces me to use all my strength!" Situ Changtian said coldly as he raised his sword.
Although he was fearful in his heart, Ye Chen showed no fear at all and said calmly: "Then it will be my honor!"
The atmosphere of the entire scene became tense as the two people talked. The night wind blew by, and its chilling air spread out.
Seeing this, the smile on General Hou Qi's lips became thicker and thicker, and he sneered in his heart: "Let's fight! It's best to fight to the death!"
However, in the next moment, the smile at the corner of the general's mouth suddenly froze...
