"Have you heard? Duan Lang is dead. He was killed by Qin Ze, the second prince's subordinate. I heard that his death was tragic. The whole body was not left behind, and it was chopped into several pieces."
"Who? Duanlang? Is that the genius boy from Wuling Palace? Impossible, I heard that his strength is infinitely close to the level of Kaitian Palace. Could it be that he has the same name?"
"Besides him, is there another person named Duanlang in the entire imperial capital? I heard that his body was carried out by Prime Minister Fang's men."
"Where is Wuling Palace? How did they react?"
"There was no reaction. It was as if nothing happened at Wuling Palace. But compared to this, I am more curious about why these two people were fighting."
"Hahaha, I know this. There is a junior in my mother-in-law's family who works in the city guard. Their captain got drunk a few days ago and said that he had found out Qin Ze's true identity."
"Oh? Lao Zhang, tell me quickly, who is this Qin Ze?"
People around him cast curious glances at him, their eyes full of doubts. Qin Ze's appearance was a bit too sudden.
"No matter how hard you think, you will never think that he is the wanted Young Palace Master Qin Chang'an of the Beidao Shrine. He has defeated Duan Lang once before in the secret realm of the North. If Duan Lang hadn't run fast enough that time, he might have been killed earlier.
He’s already dead.”
Lao Zhang looked around cautiously, and when he saw that no one was paying attention to him, he leaned down and whispered.
He lowered his voice, making it deep and deep.
hiss……
Everyone around him took a deep breath, their eyes full of shock.
Qin Chang'an? Now that the second prince has brought Qin Chang'an back to the imperial capital and asked him to participate in the imperial capital arena competition, what is going on? Why do I feel like my brain is running out?
Everyone could see that in the ring stage, Qin Changan was obviously the second prince's subordinate. At that time, he thought that the second prince, who had been away all year round, had won over a strong man.
Everyone then started a more intense discussion, and even the bold ones began to speculate that the second prince and Qin Changan might have reached some unknown agreement.
Discussions like this filled every corner of the imperial capital. Everyone was discussing Qin Changan, and every time Duan Lang was mentioned.
Wuling Hall, in the main hall.
The main hall, which used to be bustling in the past, is now as quiet as death. The atmosphere is gloomy and the light is dim. A huge coffin can be vaguely seen placed in the center of the hall.
The coffin was simple and dark red, and the coffin lid was tightly fitted. It was wrapped with two long white silk ribbons, which were fluttering gently in the breeze. With the fluttering of the long silk ribbons, the atmosphere in the hall dropped a few degrees.
Directly above the coffin, on a thick bronze chair, an old figure sat upright, with long silver-white hair floating gently, and an old face full of cold murderous intent.
"Palace Master, the matter has been found out clearly. Duan Lang was killed by Qin Changan when he intercepted him at the exit of the ruins."
Below the main hall, there are the same three old figures standing. They have silver hair, some even have crutches, but there is a sharp light in their eyes.
"I just want to know why he was killed by the Spiritual Hero in the Kaitian Palace realm, and whether the second prince was involved in this matter."
The master of the hall gently raised his head and looked at the coffin in the middle of the hall with a pair of gloomy eyes. This was sent by someone sent by Fang Qianmo before. He checked it and found that the knife cut off the body and cut off the life.
This kind of injury can only be caused by the difference in strength between the two. Duanlang did not put up any decent resistance when facing this knife attack.
But he was in the Kaitian Palace realm, so even if he was defeated, he shouldn't die like this.
"We found the other two contestants who were present at the time. We have analyzed all the details from the beginning to the end of the battle, and we speculate that the problem is most likely caused by the black gas that suddenly appeared."
"According to what they said, Qin Changan and Qiu Long were chased out of the ground by something at that time, and there was only a cloud of black gas coming out of the hole they jumped out of, and nothing else."
"In other words, that black energy should be what is chasing Qin Changan and the others."
The elder below said in a deep voice, which meant that Qin Changan knew the origin of this black energy. Only in this way could he explain why he dared to face Duanlang's challenge head-on.
Because he is very aware of the damage and impact it can bring.
"Qin Chang'an!"
The old man sitting above slowly clenched his hands, the strong murderous intent in his eyes surged like real substance, and there was an evil aura surrounding him.
"Where is he?"
The old man slowly raised his head, his eyes filled with scarlet bloodshot eyes.
"After coming out of the ruins and entering the palace of His Highness the Second Prince, he was accompanied by a horned dragon, which was also brought out from the ruins and was still using the Situ Wenyao War Beast quota. The relationship between them is very likely to be unusual.
"
The elder below took out a piece of letter paper, which was wrapped in spiritual power and gradually floated up, falling into the hands of the palace master.
Looking at the content on the letter, the palace master frowned.
If this guy had been hiding in Situ Wenyao's palace all this time, things would have been very troublesome, and they wouldn't be able to kill him.
Once the results of the Imperial Capital Arena are announced, Qin Chang'an will have a hundred thousand troops at his disposal, and they will have no chance at all.
Therefore, this matter must be resolved within the imperial capital.
"Find a way to lure him out. We don't have many chances. This time, Lao San and I will take action personally. We must ensure that he is absolutely killed and we must not let him leave the imperial capital alive."
A wisp of faint blue flame burst out from the hands of the palace master. The moment this flame appeared, the temperature of the entire hall dropped again.
The flames instantly ignited the letter in his hand, and a wisp of faint blue flame rose up with a bang, and the letter also turned into blue smoke and disappeared.
"I'm going to talk to Fang Qianmo. He also has a grudge against this guy and is trying to delay the announcement of the results."
The three elders below looked at each other, then nodded slightly, turned and walked out of the hall. What they lacked most now was time.
If Fang Qianmo can be allowed to extend the time for announcing the results, if they can get one more day, their unknown plan will be perfected.
After the three elders left, the entire hall fell into silence. After an unknown period of time, the hall master who was sitting in his seat slowly stood up and came to the coffin with a hunched figure.
Looking at the young and familiar face in the coffin with his old eyes, he felt waves of heartache surrounding him.
He has no children, so Duanlang has been adopted as his direct disciple since he was a child. They are master and disciple in name, but they have a strong relationship like father and son.
