Chapter 349: The Beginning of the End of the Huo Family
"This...how is this possible?"
The waiter's whole face turned red at this time, especially when he saw the gloomy face of his boss, he was trembling with fear.
"Wang Shitou, am I not kind to you on weekdays?"
At this moment, the owner of Juxianlou with a gloomy face slowly raised his head, looked at the waiter, and said coldly.
Feeling the ferocious look in Boss Dao's eyes, Wang Shitou shuddered, took a step back, shrank his neck, and said, "Boss, I was wrong!"
"Wrong?"
The boss's face turned red, he shook his big hand fiercely, slapped him, and roared, "Why are you dragging me into the water if you are looking for death?"
Wang Shitou did not dare to say a word, his eyebrows were lowered.
"Go away, from today on, you don't have to come again!"
The boss waved his sleeves, roared angrily, and walked into the Juxian Building.
At the same time, in a gorgeous room on the third floor of Juxian Tower, with the arrival of Long Chen and Xia Wenyuan, dozens of people in gorgeous clothes stood up to greet them with smiles on their faces.
"Master Long is here. If you are not far away, please welcome him!"
The one at the front was the one with the mustache. He laughed, cupped his hands and said.
"Thank you for your work!"
Long Chen nodded, and under the guidance of the four leading people, he sat on the main seat at the top, and then everyone sat down.
"Everyone, before that I need to introduce someone to you!"
At this moment, Long Chen glanced at Xia Wenyuan beside him.
In the eyes of everyone, Xia Wenyuan straightened his clothes and stood up slowly, cupped his hands to everyone, and said, "You must know that a few days ago, the prince of the Great Xia Dynasty came to recruit the royal family and was rejected, right?"
There was no trace of embarrassment on Xia Wenyuan's face, and he always had that faint smile. However, when his words fell on everyone's ears, they were shocked and stared at Xia Wenyuan.
"Could it be..."
Naturally, none of the people who could sit here were stupid. Xia Wenyuan's casual words made them instantly remember the scene of that day.
"Could it be that you are the prince?"
Finally, the fat man, one of the four people sitting in the front, asked with surprise on his face.
Xia Wenyuan nodded, "It's me!"
boom!
As his voice fell, everyone present stood up in shock, looked at him in awe, and then glanced at Long Chen, thoughtfully.
"Haha, everyone, please take a seat!"
Xia Wenyuan smiled faintly, showing his calmness, but the fat on his face ruined this demeanor.
Long Chen already knew everything about Xia Wenyuan's experience, so he glanced at everyone and said calmly, "You all are the ones who control the lifeblood of the Crimson Fire Empire, so I will tell you directly that from today on, I
I need you to surrender to Xia Wenyuan."
After Long Chen finished speaking, everyone present fell silent.
"Why, you don't seem to be willing?"
Long Chen slowly straightened up, a powerful aura emerged from his body, and he stared at everyone present with cold eyes.
Under Long Chen's gaze, many people felt a chill in their hearts and couldn't help but think of the destruction of the Ma family yesterday.
In this weird atmosphere, the fat man sitting at the front was none other than Qian Wanwan, the head of the Qian family, one of the four major aristocratic families. He forced out a smile, hugged Long Chen and Xia Wenyuan, and said, "
Young Master Long, does he want us to assist His Highness the Prince, sideline the Huo family, and start fighting for the heir apparent with other princes?"
"yes!"
Long Chen nodded lightly.
"It's not difficult to sideline the Huo family, but can Mr. Long ensure that he has the means to deal with the ancestor of the Huo family?"
The speaker was the head of the Zhao family, one of the four great aristocratic families. Zhao Yunhe added, "Huo Yintian, the ancestor of the Huo family, is a genuine Earth Martial Realm powerhouse!"
"Haha, you don't need to worry about this, it's just an early stage of the Earth Martial Realm!" Long Chen shook his head disdainfully, looked at Kong Tianlun who came here solemnly, and said, "Why, General Kong seems to be very confused?"
When Kong Tianlun heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, "After all, I am the general of the Red Fire Empire. I betrayed the royal family. This makes me..."
"Humph, just pretending!"
At this moment, Qian Wanwan sneered and said, "I didn't know that you, Kong Tianlun, secretly controlled 80% of the Red Fire Empire's army, and your wolf ambitions were obvious. In order to appease you, you think your bastard son ruined a princess, Huo
Will your family let you go so easily?"
"Um?"
Long Chen's eyes became sharp at this time and he looked at Kong Tianlun.
"Millions of dollars, you fart!"
Kong Tianlun's face turned red and he snorted angrily, "My son and Princess Qingxuan are in love with each other. Why should we waste it? Besides, Princess Qingxuan is my son's fiancée now. You'd better be careful what you say."
"snort!"
Qian Wanwan snorted coldly.
"Everyone!"
At this moment, Long Chen snorted coldly and said, "I'm not interested in your past affairs. Now, it's still the same question. What's your attitude? Tell me?"
"Mr. Long, I have millions of dollars to support His Highness. I only hope that after His Highness succeeds, he can give me a title in the Qian family!"
"Title?"
Long Chen and Xia Wenyuan looked at each other. In the Great Xia Dynasty, the difference between nobles and commoners was that nobles had titles, while commoners, even if they were rich, were just commoners without titles.
No matter how down-to-earth a nobleman is, he will be protected by the Great Xia Dynasty, which is not comparable to that of a mere upstart commoner.
For Qian Wanwan, his Qian family's business spans several empires. It can be said that he is making money every day and is blessed with wealth. Even if he is in the capital of Daxia, he is considered a rich man. For him now,
Making money is no longer a trivial matter, but how to protect the existing wealth is a big deal.
Therefore, he made such a request.
"Okay, I agree to your request!"
Xia Wenyuan agreed without hesitation without much thought. It was just a title, which was nothing in his eyes.
"Master Qian has a good plan. If His Highness the Prince can also give my Zhao family a title, then our Zhao family will also be willing to go through fire and water for His Highness the Prince."
Zhao Yunpeng, the head of the Zhao family, stood up and said.
"Haha, Master Zhao, don't worry, I agree to your terms!"
Seeing that two of the four major families had already agreed, Xia Wenyuan finally showed a smile.
Seeing that the Zhao family and Qian family agreed, the remaining Kong family and Fen family also looked at each other and agreed.
And as the four major families agreed, the next nine major families dared to refuse, and they all knelt down and bowed their heads to Xia Wenyuan.
…
The next day, early in the morning, the sun rose in the east.
An angry roar sounded from the huge palace located in the center of Yujing City...
"What happened today? Why did only less than half of the officials attend the morning court? Can anyone give me an explanation?"
Scarlet Fire Palace, Qintian Palace!
Emperor Huo Yurui sat high on the dragon chair, his eyes flashing with anger and his face gloomy. He looked coldly at the more than thirty officials kneeling in the hall below, and a murderous aura surged out of him.
"Someone, go to these people's homes and bring them back to me!"
"If you don't give me an explanation, you're going to hell!"
Huo Yurui said with a gloomy expression, and the officials below were also trembling all over. The emperor's wrath was destined to bleed.
However, when his order was issued, the soldiers in golden armor in the hall remained motionless and stood motionless.
"Um?"
Huo Yurui finally realized something was wrong at this moment. A chill surged in his eyes, and he suddenly looked towards the door of the main hall...
"Haha, Huo Yurui, you are so majestic!"
As a frivolous and scornful voice came in from outside the door, Huo Yurui's eyes instantly narrowed and he not only squeezed his hands.
At the same time, the moment the sound rang out, the officials who were kneeling in the hall turned around neatly and knelt down towards the door.
boom!
At this moment, a slender and tall figure slowly walked in under the sunlight.
This man was dressed in a black outfit, with his hair hanging casually on his shoulders. There was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, his steps were steady, and he carried a terrifying aura.
Even Huo Yurui, who was used to seeing wind and waves, couldn't help but be frightened by this momentum.
Although there were a few more people following behind the young man, they were nothing. In his eyes, there was only the young man in black who was walking at the front. At this time, the young man was as dazzling as a scorching sun.
"Who are you?"
It wasn't until the young man stopped that Huo Yurui came back to his senses. A cold light flashed in his eyes. Especially when he saw the absent officials following the young man, he was so angry that he trembled all over.
"You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know that from today on, you will no longer be the emperor of the Red Fire Empire!"
Long Chen put his hands behind his back and smiled lightly.
"presumptuous!"
Huo Yurui scolded him coldly, looked down at Long Chen, and said, "Do you think you can successfully force me to abdicate by joining forces with these losers?"
Long Chen did not speak, and still looked calm and calm. The heads of the four major families and the nine major families behind him all turned cold at this moment.
"Where is the protector? Kill all these trash for me!"
At this moment, Huo Yurui suddenly roared loudly, and the sound suddenly sounded in the hall.
"boom!"
The moment his voice fell, a strong wind suddenly blew in the hall, and then eight terrifying figures came out of the strong wind.
As soon as these eight people appeared, a terrifying aura spread out like a storm, sending those civil servants with underground power flying away one after another.
Eight people lined up neatly in front of the hall, staring coldly at Long Chen and others.
"It turned out to be the Eight Great Protectors hidden by the royal family for many years..."
Behind Long Chen, Kong Tianlun's expression changed slightly and he exclaimed. The news that the royal family has eight guardians has always been considered to be a myth, but unexpectedly, this is actually true.
At the same time, people from all the major families also shrank their eyes and took a breath.
This is the eight-and-a-half-step martial arts realm.
"The background of this royal family is really terrifying!"
"yes!"
"However, against Mr. Long, you are just a chicken and a dog!"
…
After the people from the major aristocratic families were briefly shocked, the smiles returned to their faces again.
They knew that Long Chen's trump card was that with the terrifying lion, he would be seeking death no matter how much he took even half a step to the ground martial realm.
"kill!"
Being ridiculed by everyone, the eight guardians also looked extremely ugly. The leader snorted coldly, drew out his long sword, stepped forward, and killed them directly.
Spiritual energy floated around his body, and every step he took would leave a footprint on the ground. His eyes were as sharp as a knife, and the long knife in his hand burst out with a bright sword light.
"kill!"
At this moment, several other people also burst out with momentum and attacked.
Eight half-step Earth Martial Realm beings acted at the same time. The momentum was extremely terrifying, and the entire palace was trembling violently. Fortunately, the palace was blessed with formations, so it was not directly destroyed.
Huo Yurui, who was sitting on the dragon chair, saw the terrifying momentum of these eight people. A smile appeared on his face, and he snorted coldly, "A few losers are like nothing. How naive!"
However, before his smile could fall, suddenly, a fire flashed in front of his eyes, and eight men in black flew over quickly.
And at the moment they landed, a sound of broken muscles and bones was heard from within the bodies of the eight guardians.
"hiss!"
Not only Huo Yurui suddenly stood up in shock, but even the leaders of the major forces behind Long Chen took a step back.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the majestic flaming lion standing in the hall.
"Haha..." Long Chen smiled faintly, patted Xia Wenyuan on the shoulder and said, "Wenyuan, go ahead, you are the protagonist today."
As he spoke, he took out a golden long sword from the storage ring, which was a fourth-grade spiritual weapon that he personally refined for Xia Wenyuan.
"Take this object and kill the emperor. From now on, you will be the Lord of Red Fire!"
Long Chen handed the long sword to Xia Wenyuan.
"What a coward!" Huo Yurui's eyes jumped and he said coldly, "In the more than a hundred years since I founded the country, Chihuo, this is the first time someone has knocked on my door. Boy, if I don't kill you, where is the majesty of Chihuo?
"
At this time, Huo Yurui's face was gloomy and his whole body was full of murderous aura. He slowly stood up from the dragon chair. Although there was no spiritual energy fluctuation in his body, the terrifying aura was transmitted from him.
Here is the Qi of the Emperor, also known as the Qi of the Overlord.
This is the aura developed by an emperor who has been in a high position for many years and is in charge of a country. Ordinary people, faced with such an aura, would be frightened to the point where their legs would become weak, and they might even be frightened to death.
Who can not be afraid of the emperor's wrath, blood flowing from his head, and millions of corpses lying on his body?
"Crack!"
Huo Yurui glanced at everyone below with cold eyes, his face was as gloomy as water, he took a breath, and directly crushed the jade ring on his right hand. The jade ring was the symbol of every emperor of the Huo family, and it was also the last of the Huo family.
A layer of protection.
After the jade ring shattered, a terrifying energy wave rushed out of the hall like lightning and disappeared into the sky. After doing this, Huo Yurui looked at everyone coldly and said, "Today, you are all going to die!"
"Our Huo family has controlled the Red Fire Empire for hundreds of years. How can we not have any means of self-protection?"
"Boom!"
And as soon as his voice fell, an extremely terrifying momentum suddenly came from the depths of the palace.
