"Aren't you afraid that I will tell Emperor Shenwu your secret?"
Ling Xiao suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhan Xiaotian, with a playful smile on his lips.
"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid, but I believe in my own vision."
Zhan Xiaotian smiled bitterly and looked quite calm.
His secret lies in the Holy Body of Heaven.
However, this holy body is also the shackles that bind him.
If he cannot get out of Emperor Wu's city, he will be suppressed and killed sooner or later.
And with Emperor Shenwu's character, do you really think he has no intention of overthrowing the Zhan Dynasty?
The time has not yet come.
How could a Shenwu Emperor, who had ruled thousands of ancient dynasties and stood tall for hundreds of thousands of years, allow even the slightest threat to exist?
Therefore, sooner or later, the Zhan Dynasty will be destroyed because of a trivial mistake.
The appearance of Ling Xiao is the only opportunity to change the fate of Zhan Dynasty and Zhan Xiaotian.
After all, looking at Qing Cang, apart from the young master of the Realm Lord Hall, only this young master of the Ling clan can intimidate Shenwu and protect the dynasty.
"So, you want me to accept you as my servant and take you out of Emperor Wu's City?"
Ling Xiao nodded silently, as if thinking deeply.
Zhan Xiaotian, however, said nothing and just stood aside quietly, waiting for Ling Xiao's decision.
Of course, with his character, how could he not take any precautions.
If in the end, Ling Xiao really didn't agree to his request, Zhan Xiaotian had already thought of a countermeasure.
Now he fights against the high priest of the dynasty and is hiding in Emperor Wu's city.
At worst, he would take advantage of the eldest princess's wedding to escape from the city, and then lead the war clan to the far north and into the deep wilderness.
When the time comes, even the Shenwu Emperor will be helpless.
It's just that this is a bad strategy. Abandoning a hundred thousand years of inheritance is a fatal blow to any ancient clan of the dynasty.
What's more, the barbaric wilderness in the far north is the place where the Human Emperor Xuanyuan was sealed.
With the nature of this clan, they will not embarrass the Zhan clan too much, but... it is hard to say that for those barbarians who have lived in the wilderness for a long time.
"Having heard about this wedding of Wu Hongsi, Emperor Shenwu will take the opportunity to open the ancestral land and reward the princes of the dynasty?"
Ling Xiao's brows were furrowed, and purple meaning flowed in his eyes, which contained indescribable divinity.
But Zhan Xiaotian had some confusion on his face, obviously he didn't understand why Master Ling Xiao would mention this matter at this time.
"It is said that it is to reward the princes of the current dynasty, but in the end it is only their heirs who benefit. The eighteen princes of Shenwu, except the blood-clothed prince, are contemporary people, and the other seventeen princes are already thousands of years old. With their status, it is naturally impossible for them to personally
We are going to compete in martial arts to compete for the qualifications of the ancestral land, so... we should send the children of the clan to compete for good fortune."
Zhan Xiaotian frowned slightly and looked at Ling Xiao with some confusion, "Young Master is planning to..."
"I see."
Ling Xiao nodded and chuckled, but his face was inexplicably solemn, "Since you want to be my follower, you must let me see your value. Otherwise, you will offend an imperial dynasty in vain. It is really not worth the loss. Before this martial arts competition, I
I will inform Emperor Shenwu to choose one person as my servant. If you are able to defeat the Eighteen Marquises, I will... agree to your request."
After finishing his words, Ling Xiao didn't hesitate anymore and turned around and headed out of the city.
An astonishing fighting spirit appeared on Zhan Xiaotian's face, and he bowed respectfully towards the retreating figure.
Although Ling Xiao's move seemed harsh, it made him more and more certain that this young master's heart was open and upright.
At the very least, he did not conceal the trade-off in his heart, but said it to his face, which was convincing.
The young master has given you the opportunity. Whether he can seize it or not depends on him.
With Ling Xiao intimidated, even if Emperor Shenwu wanted to do something against the dynasty, he would have to be cautious.
"Thank you, sir! Xiaotian will certainly live up to your high expectations."
"Sir, do you really want to provoke the Shenwu Emperor for this person?"
On the mountain road outside the city, Ling Xiao and Xuanyuan Weiyang were walking side by side.
At this time, the fairy glow on the face of the Xuanyuan Emperor's daughter had also dissipated, revealing a beautiful face that was confused and ignorant.
"There will still be a lot of unfairness in this world. Respecting strength is certainly the ideal of immortality, but Weiyang, have you ever thought about why this is the case?"
Ling Xiao's eyes were deep and he was not in a hurry to return to the palace. Instead, he and Xuanyuan Wei sat on the mountain road and admired the mountain scenery.
"Why?"
Xuanyuan Weiyang shook her head. Every time the young master showed this expression, it made people feel... so profound.
"Because the Great Dao...is unfair, all races have selfish desires."
"The avenue...is unfair?"
"Yes, the strong are respected. Although there is no fault, it makes those races who are born weak suffer bullying."
Ling Xiao stopped and looked at the distant mountains, "Although it is difficult for me to change the minds of sentient beings on my own,... I will work hard to eliminate any injustice I encounter."
"boom!!"
At this moment, Xuanyuan Weiyang felt the golden light burst out in front of his eyes, and the Tao Yun evolved.
And that black dress is like the most sacred punishment of the Nine Heavens, judging all sins.
The mind is full but the strength is not enough.
Perhaps, this is the pain in the young master's heart.
Xuanyuan Weiyang suddenly plucked up the courage, hugged Ling Xiao's arm tightly with both hands, snuggled her whole body next to him, and whispered, "Master, Weiyang is willing to accompany you...to experience the injustice in the world."
"Hey, the daughter of destiny is determined and determined to surrender. Congratulations to the host for gaining 15,000 luck points and 150,000 villain points."
"Hey, the daughter of destiny has surrendered. Congratulations to the host for receiving an additional reward: 1% of the destiny casting value (63%)."
"Hey, the daughter of destiny has surrendered. Congratulations to the host for receiving an additional reward: the luck plundering talisman."
"Hey, the daughter of destiny has surrendered. Congratulations to the host for getting an additional reward: Xuantian Baojian (gathering luck and opening up opportunities)."
"Um?"
Ling Xiao's eyes were slightly sharp, he looked down at the shy girl with a blushing face, and finally a sincere smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
It's not easy.
Originally, according to Ling Xiao's thoughts, with this girl's naive temperament, it was easy for her to surrender to him.
But what surprised Ling Xiao was that after experiencing countless "tribulations and setbacks", the Xuanyuan Emperor's daughter seemed to always have a trace of obsession in her heart.
But today, Ling Xiao's words made her feel the same way, making her feel inexplicably sad, so that her Taoist heart sang in harmony, and she completely fell into eternal catastrophe.
However, in this way, Ling Xiao can also be at ease... and engage in Buddhism.
"Sir, Weiyang will work very hard."
Sensing the playfulness in Ling Xiao's eyes, Xuanyuan Weiyang's face gradually became cloudy, and she hurriedly lowered her head, as if she didn't dare to look directly into his pair of deep, dark eyes.
Just two jade hands, but they held Ling Xiao's arm firmly with more force, just like her Taoist heart at this time, resolute and unrepentant.
"Um."
Ling Xiao smiled and led Xuanyuan Weiyang towards the mountain.
It seemed that this trip to Shenwu was far more exciting than he imagined.
As for Zhan Xiaotian...
I said no, but one day, I will spread my holy name to the world, and among the sons of destiny who are in trouble, there will always be someone... who falls into the trap.
