Tang Shiyan was silent. She could pretend to agree to Princess Tian Jue's alliance, or she could take the opportunity to consider delaying it, but these were not the best strategies. If Princess Tian Jue knew her true purpose, it would only aggravate the conflict.
So she said straightforwardly: "I will not form an alliance with you, nor do I want to compete for the throne. We will continue to be as before, and you can leave."
Princess Tianjue said calmly: "Everyone can say empty words. I will only believe you unless you swear an oath not to compete for the throne."
Tang Shiyan shook her head and said: "I won't post it. I'm just saying this to express my attitude. It's up to you whether you believe it or not."
"Then you are going to be my enemy?" Princess Tianjue said calmly.
"Why don't we form an alliance with you and become your enemy?" Tang Shiyan frowned and said, "I don't want to get involved in your battle for the throne, and I don't want others to bother me. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Tang Shiyan, I thought you would become more mature after breaking through to the ninth level of supernatural power, but I didn't expect you to still be so naive." Princess Tianjue sneered, "You don't want to get involved in the struggle for the throne, so you can stay out of it? Do you know that you have now
With the power to threaten us, just say empty words and make us believe it, a joke!"
Tang Shiyan said: "When I see my father and empress, I will ask for a border, stay away from the court, and will not participate in the imperial capital's wrongdoings."
"Then what if you come back?" Princess Tianjue said expressionlessly, "Except for my father, who can stop you?"
Tang Shiyan said in a deep voice: "If you think so, then I have nothing to say."
Princess Tianjue looked at her for a long time and said: "Okay, I'll take a step back. You don't have to form an alliance with me, and you don't have to swear an oath of inner demons. But I will borrow your best magic weapon for a while. If I board the
If you have lost the throne, I can return it to you."
Tang Shiyan smiled faintly: "If you can't ascend the throne, you won't return it? Borrowing my top-quality magic weapon is the real purpose of your visit this time, right?"
"You can say whatever you want." Princess Tianjue shrugged, "I won't embarrass you. Either you and I will make an alliance, or you can give me the best magic weapon. I'll give you a lot of room to choose one of the two."
"I won't choose either one," Tang Shiyan said, "I obtained the best magic weapon by chance. It is the capital of my livelihood. It is impossible to lend it to you. As for the alliance, if you invite me, I may consider declining it. But if you
Using this kind of coercion will only disgust me."
"Oh?" Princess Tianjue said calmly, "Then you still choose to be my enemy?"
"If you insist on thinking like this, I can't help it," Tang Shiyan said, "But if you push me to be your opposite, it will be very detrimental to you. You should know that even if you don't regard me as a friend, you shouldn't treat me as a friend."
as your enemy”
Princess Tianjue smiled slightly: "That's good, but I am a person who will not give up until I achieve my goal. I don't want to go back empty-handed. Tang Shiyan, you must give me an explanation today, otherwise, I will kill him."
She stretched out her hand and pointed at Xia Chen in the house. There was no power from her fingertips, but without any sound, the entire house suddenly cracked into countless cracks, then shattered into dust and floated into the sky.
A house evaporated in an instant, leaving only a smooth, mirror-like place.
Xia Chen's face changed drastically. He was enveloped by Princess Tianjue's finger power. He felt like he was being held in the palm of a giant sky-holding hand. With just a little force, he could be crushed into pieces.
Princess Tianjue's IQ is not low. This house is very important to Tang Shiyan. Since she can bring this boy back, it is obvious that this boy is also a very important person to her and can be used to threaten her.
"Om!" Tang Shiyan's face changed, and the six-character mantra was instantly activated, turning into an indestructible golden rune, which instantly broke through Princess Tianjue's finger power. Then she reached out and blocked Xia Chen behind her.
"You really care about him." Princess Tianjue did not take action again, but looked at Xia Chen with a strange expression and said, "What is the origin of this young man? He deserves to be protected like this by you."
Tang Shiyan's pretty face was like frost. Princess Tianjue wanted to kill Xia Chen, which had touched the deepest anger in her heart: "Tianjue, if you attack him again, I will be your enemy without you forcing me."
Xia Chen sighed, thinking that Sister Shiyan was still not as cunning as these people. The more she protected him, the more important he was in Tang Shiyan's heart, and the more opportunities she gave these people.
Sure enough, Princess Tianjue smiled faintly: "Very good, I know your weakness, Tang Shiyan. I can't take away the best magic weapon today, so I will take away this junior. When will you agree to ally with me, and when will I let you go?"
"Exceed him"
"Is it just you?" Tang Shiyan raised her eyebrows, "I'm afraid I can't take him away. You should know that Li Yue didn't take advantage of me."
"On my own, I really can't gain much advantage," Princess Tianjue said calmly, "But if the Ninth Prince is also included, do you think you can still protect this junior?"
As soon as she finished speaking, a ripple appeared in the air
The ripples are getting bigger and bigger, like a vortex in the air, but there is no suction at all.
A tall and strong man slowly walked out of the ripples. He was like a strong man from another world. He did not reveal any aura, but whenever you saw him, you would feel as if you were seeing a mountain.
He has a tough face and wears a black armor. This black armor seems to grow on his body. It fits indescribably. In his two fierce eyes, there is endless divine light.
"Wan Ning, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect you to grow into the ninth level of supernatural power, and finally you are no longer the good-looking waste before." Ninth Prince Tang Xuan looked directly at Tang Shiyan, his voice was full of oppression like a mountain.
The color on Tang Shiyan's face gradually faded: "Tang Xuan, when did you and Tian Jue get together?"
"Tang Zhen is powerful and has the best magic weapon, the Holy Book of Darkness. Isn't it normal for us to join forces?" Tang Xuan said calmly, "I originally wanted to bring Li Yue over, but she doesn't have the best magic weapon.
The degree of union is not as high as yours.”
"I have made my attitude clear, why do you insist on dragging me into your camp?" Tang Shiyan said angrily, "Will dragging someone in who doesn't cooperate with you have any effect on your fight for the throne?"
"It's very simple" Tang Xuandao, "If we don't pull you, Tang Zhen will pull you. You know his character will definitely force you, and with him, you will have an absolutely subordinate position, but if we form an alliance
, you will have the same status, which one is more important and which is less important, you don’t need me to choose for you."
Tang Shiyan's face changed. She did not expect that on the first day after entering the imperial capital, except for the eldest prince, all the other princes and princesses with the ninth level of magical powers would come to her door.
This is really lightning fast
"Promise him, Sister Shiyan," Xia Chen said in a low voice, "The situation is stronger now, and we will think of a way later."
Tang Shiyan gritted her teeth: "Okay, I promise you but I have conditions. I just join your alliance and will not object to your fight for the throne. But if I say I can help you in any way, I won't do it."
Princess Tianjue's face changed: "Then why do you want you to join?"
Tang Xuan stretched out his hand to stop him and smiled faintly: "It doesn't matter, sister Wan Ning also needs to change her mind. She can't do it too hastily, but to ensure..."
He glanced at Xia Chen casually and said, "How about letting this kid come to my Tang Xuan's house as a guest for a while? I believe that I have the ability to protect his safety."
"Do you want Xia Chen to be a hostage?" Tang Shiyan looked very ugly.
"I just want to make the ship of our alliance more stable, Guan Ning, I hope you can understand" Tang Xuan smiled slightly
Tang Shiyan clenched her teeth and was about to say no.
Xia Chen suddenly said: "Okay, I've never been to the prince's mansion when I first came to Tianlong City. If I can take this opportunity to be a guest and communicate with the ninth level of magical power, it will definitely be very beneficial to my own cultivation.
Yes, thank you Ninth Prince for the invitation."
He gave a solemn salute to Tang Xuan, which seemed very sincere.
All three of them were stunned.
Tang Shiyan didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd, so she didn't say anything.
Princess Tian Jue's expression was slightly cold, as if she didn't like Xia Chen's tone. In her eyes, Xia Chen, who only had the seventh level of magical power, was just like an ant and had no qualifications to speak. If she hadn't seen Tang Shiyan reacting to him quite
Damn, I've already killed you with one finger.
Tang Xuan's thoughts were deeper than Princess Tianjue's, but he just smiled: "You're welcome, your name is Xia Chen, right?"
Xia Chen nodded and said to Tang Shiyan: "Your Highness Wan Ning, since His Highness the Ninth Prince is so sincere, it would be unfair to refuse. From now on, we should reciprocate as courtesy. If they invite me, you can also invite some people they care about being close to...
"
Before he finished speaking, Tang Shiyan's beautiful eyes had already lit up.
She has a gentle and kind temperament and will not threaten others. After Xia Chen mentioned this, she suddenly understood
The expressions of Tang Xuan and Princess Tianjue changed. Xia Chen's intention was very obvious, that is, let Tang Shiyan treat her in her own way. If you want to make me a hostage, then I can naturally take yours.
Taking people close to you hostage
No one with the ninth level of supernatural power is alone. There are many constraints. However, there are very few people who are alone like Tang Shiyan.
"You dare to threaten us?" Princess Tianjue said sternly, with murderous intent flashing in her eyes.
"Why can't I threaten you?" Xia Chen said coldly, "And you should know from Princess Liyue that although I am only at the seventh level of supernatural power, killing monks at the eighth level is like killing a dog. Except for the ninth level of supernatural power, no one is me.
I am an opponent, so if you hold me hostage, you must be prepared to be threatened by counterattacks."
A strange look appeared on Tang Xuan's face. Instead of being angry, he smiled: "Little boy Xia Chen is very brave. If it had been anyone else, let alone a seventh-level magical monk, he would have been a peak eighth-level supernatural power, in front of us.
You are just being submissive, but you still dare to threaten us, and the threat is very legitimate."
Xia Chen also smiled: "I have no choice, Your Highness the Ninth Prince, I just want to save my life. After all, no one wants to live under threats."
As soon as he finished speaking, a sneer came from the air: "You guys are so stupid, do you think that by joining forces here, you can threaten me, Tang Zhen?" (To be continued...)
