Nangong Fengyu couldn't help shouting again: "The Heavenly Star Divine Fruit is extremely difficult to cultivate. Even in the entire Nanhua Empire, there are only more than 20 fruits that mature in a year. Among them, nearly half of the fruits have to be supplied to the upper country.
, there are only a dozen or so left."
"Is this guy planning to take away all our achievements for the past year?"
"Brother Emperor, please lower your voice!"
Nangong Qianrou's expression changed slightly, she subconsciously glanced at the Longfeng Pavilion in the distance and warned.
You know, Ye Wushuang is in the Longfeng Pavilion at the moment. Nangong Fengyu is making such a loud noise. If Ye Wushuang hears it and makes him unhappy, it will be the end!
Nangong Fengyu also realized that he had made a mistake, he shrank his neck, and glanced around him warily, but his face was still extremely ugly, and he whispered: "But... twelve are too many, right? This guy, too
So greedy!"
greedy?
Hearing this, Nangong Qianrou smiled bitterly.
She wanted to tell the emperor brother so much at this moment that in fact, Ye Wushuang didn't pay attention to the Tianxing Divine Fruit at all.
After all, Ye Wushuang was only seeking the welfare of those around him.
However, if she told the three of them about this, they would be so angry that they would vomit blood on the spot!
"Give!"
Nangong Qian made the final decision at this moment and said in a deep voice: "Since he wants it, then we will give it to him!"
"Tomorrow, I will deliver it to him personally!"
"Brother Royal!"
"Father!"
As soon as these words came out, Nangong Hongyuan and Nangong Fengyu were both shocked. They looked at Nangong Qian and stopped talking.
"Loss money and avoid disaster!"
Nangong Qian sighed and immediately looked at Nangong Qianrou: "Qianrou, did Mr. Ye ever say how long it would take to leave after completing these three things?"
"I didn't say that..."
"ah?"
Hearing this, Nangong Qian's heart felt cold and he wanted to cry but had no tears.
He dare not not listen to the words of the ancestor Hua Miaoyin; but if Ye Wushuang just stays in the Nanhua Empire, no matter how rich their background is, they will not be able to support him!
...
At this moment, inside Longfeng Pavilion.
After Yang Bo brought a few people in, he left with good sense.
Inside the pavilion, there are currently only four people: Ye Wushuang, Lao Chentou, Lin Ruoer, and the dying Hua Xingchen who was tied up and thrown to the ground.
"Chen Sihai, how come you are also the majestic master of the First Academy, the only disciple of the former Black and White Venerable Pu Ruozhi, and a famous martial arts warrior."
Glancing at Old Chen who was standing behind Ye Wushuang, Hua Xingchen spat softly and sneered: "Now, you are working as an old slave for a young boy, but you are not afraid of losing your old face?"
"Even an old slave driving a carriage is better than you, an insidious villain who sneaks up on you from behind, right?"
Old Chentou said sarcastically: "Besides, you can't even beat me, an old slave driver, so how can you have the nerve to look down on my young master?"
"Young master? Bah!"
"Hey, give me another one!"
Old Chen was immediately unhappy. He pointed his crutch at Hua Xingchen and threatened: "Believe it or not, old man, I will chop you into human pigs right now and hang you up in Cangyun City so that everyone can take a good look at you, Patriarch Hua?"
"you..."
Hua Xingchen subconsciously wanted to refute, but when the words came to his lips, he did not dare to speak.
The pride of being the patriarch of the largest family in the Nanhua Empire made him attach great importance to face; if he really angered Old Chentou and was cut into a human pig and hung on the city gate, it would be worse than letting him die.
!
"You are cruel!"
Hua Xingchen finally gave in, and immediately looked at Ye Wushuang, who was sitting on a chair drinking tea, and shouted: "Ye Wushuang... I'm in trouble today. I want to kill or behead you. Come on, I won't blink an eye!"
"But killing someone is just a nod. If you humiliate me like this, aren't you afraid of incurring revenge from the entire Hua family?"
"Humiliation? You don't deserve it!"
Hearing this, Ye Wushuang smiled, put down the tea cup, and said lightly: "As for revenge... If your entire Hua family dares to come, I will destroy your entire Hua family!"
As soon as these words came out, Hua Xingchen was stunned and unable to refute.
He was now convinced that Hua Miaoyin, who had previously knelt down to Ye Wushuang, was undoubtedly his ancestor; naturally he also believed in Ye Wushuang's words.
What's more, the feeling this guy gave him at this moment could only be described in one word: unfathomable!
"What...what exactly do you want to do?"
"Just asking you a few questions."
Ye Wushuang raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "First, who were the people who surrounded and suppressed Pu Ruozhi back then?"
"Why do you ask this?"
Hua Xingchen was stunned and confused.
What happened to Pu Ruozhi happened a hundred years ago; at that time, Ye Wushuang must not have been born yet, right?
Why do you care so much about that matter?
Lin Ruo'er took a step forward and shouted: "I'll answer whatever I ask you!"
"snort!"
Hua Xingchen snorted coldly and said: "It's true that I lost, but you guys are not worthy of being interrogated..."
Snap...
Before Hua Xingchen could finish his words, a slap suddenly hit his cheek.
Immediately afterwards, a shadow slowly floated out from the guqin.
"Bastard thing!"
At this moment, Hua Miaoyin's eyebrows were raised, her face covered with frost, and she shouted sternly: "I am not qualified to interrogate you?"
"Old... Ancestor!"
Hua Xingchen was stunned for a moment. He looked at Hua Miaoyin with his neck stiffened and hesitated to speak.
"Don't call me ancestor, I don't have unworthy descendants like you!"
Hua Miaoyin hummed: "You should answer whatever Mr. Ye asks you; otherwise I will expel all of your direct lineage from the Hua family!"
"Yes yes..."
Hearing this, Hua Xingchen nodded hurriedly, no longer as proud as before, and quickly replied: "Back then, all the five empires of the Eastern Wasteland were involved in besieging Pu Ruozhi; but the entire plan was planned by Chu Xiaoao and Lin Tao led it, and our four empires were just following orders!"
"By order? Whose order?"
"Of course it's Sword Master Lin Tao!"
Hua Xingchen explained: "Actually, we were all forced back then; after all, Pu Ruozhi is an illusion warrior, and it is said that he is a close disciple of the Peerless Sword Emperor. Who dares to provoke him?"
"But at that time, Chu Xiaoao, as the crown prince, invited envoys from the four countries to meet. Then during the meeting, he invited Sword Master Lin Tao to propose a plan for the five countries to form an alliance and ambush Pu Ruozhi."
"Sword Master Lin Tao has the three-phase cultivation of the illusion. Even now, squeezing us to death is about the same as squeezing an ant to death. Now that he has proposed it, we naturally dare not disobey him!"
Lin Tao Sword Master...
Hearing this, Ye Wushuang frowned slightly.
He did know that this man was one of the only two martial arts warriors in the Eastern Wasteland who had united to break through the Void Core Realm in the past millennium. He was once known as the Three Great Warriors of the Eastern Wasteland together with Pu Ruozhi!
However, there is very little information about this person; even Old Chen Tou, who is the person involved, only knows that Lin Tao was Chu Xiaoao's master and had illusion cultivation; as for other information, he knows nothing.
"How much do you know about this Lin Tao?"
Ye Wushuang asked immediately.
"Not much!"
Hua Xingchen quickly shook his head and said: "This person is extremely mysterious. He seemed to appear out of thin air. After dealing with Pu Ruozhi, he disappeared again. No one knows where he came from, and no one knows where he is now."
It’s really a dragon that sees its head but never its tail...
Ye Wushuang sneered in his heart and asked again: "Second, why did Chu Xiaoao want to ambush Pu Ruozhi?"
"this..."
Hearing this, Hua Xingchen was stunned and showed hesitation.
Hua Miaoyin raised her eyebrows and shouted: "Speak!"
"I...I don't know either..."
Hua Xingchen said with aggrieved face: "Chu Xiaoao only said that Pu Ruozhi was greedy for power and had great ambitions. He not only wanted to usurp the Cangyun imperial power, but also planned to destroy the five empires and unify the entire Eastern Wasteland."
"However, we later discovered that Chu Xiaoao had some other motive for dealing with Pu Ruozhi; but we don't know what it was specifically!"
"However, I feel it should be related to an incident that was circulating in the Eastern Wasteland at that time!"
Seeing Ye Wushuang's slightly cold expression, Hua Xingchen quickly added.
"What's up?"
"Xiao Jianyun, a traitor to the Sword Sect, stole the Sword Emperor's secret technique."
Hua Xingchen explained: "It is said that when Xiao Jianyun defected from the Sword Sect, he took away a secret technique of the Sword Emperor; and in that secret technique, there is a secret that blocks the way of heaven, evades the rules, and directly advances to the martial arts."
"After Xiao Jianyun was injured by the Jianzong elder in Zhongzhou, he disappeared; until hundreds of years later, a Xiao family suddenly emerged in the Eastern Barren who claimed to be the descendant of Xiao Jianyun, causing undercurrents in the Eastern Barren, and many wanted to attack the Xiao family
Take action."
"But at that time, Pu Ruozhi stood up to intimidate the heroes and protect the Xiao family; later, he used the relationship between the Chu family and the Cangyun imperial power to protect the Xiao family. But Pu Ruozhi never expected that
, it was his action that completely repaid the entire Xiao family."
"At that time, Chu Xiaoao, who was still the crown prince, took advantage of the opportunity when Pu Ruozhi came to the Nanhua Empire to do business, and suddenly bloodbathed the Xiao family. Almost overnight, the entire Xiao family was wiped out. Fortunately, the Xiao family had been on guard.
, transferred some of the heirs in advance, so that the family was not completely wiped out."
"Chu Xiaoao should have failed to obtain the secret skill, so he directly hunted down the Xiao family heirs across the country. At this time, Pu Ruozhi returned to Cangyun. After learning about this, he was furious. Not only did he save the Xiao family heirs, but he also fought with Chu
The family is completely broken up!"
Hearing this, Ye Wushuang narrowed his eyes and looked slightly cold.
This point corresponds to what Concubine Jin said before; it also coincides with his previous speculation that the reason why Pu Ruozhi's accident happened has a certain relationship with the eldest disciple Xiao Jianyun.
But, what is the secret technique of the Sword Emperor?
He didn't remember that he had left any secret skills in the Sword Sect!
Hua Xingchen naturally didn't know what Ye Wushuang was thinking, so he continued: "Not long after that, Chu Xiaoao found the four empires, gathered all the warriors above the Tianchong realm in the Eastern Wasteland, and launched an encirclement and suppression campaign against Pu Ruozhi."
"You should all know what happens next..."
After listening to the narration, Ye Wushuang nodded slightly and directly asked the last question, which is also the most important question: "The third question, is Pu Ruozhi still alive now?"
