Xiao Muyang glanced at Lin Zhai, with strong murderous thoughts in his heart.
He was still hesitating whether to kill Lin Zhai.
In the past, Senior Sword God was able to kill Lin Zhai in the Sea of Ten Thousand Demons, but he endured it and did not take action. Once he killed Lin Zhai, it would be equivalent to completely breaking up with the Lin family, and he would face Lin Zhai's crazy pursuit.
Even the senior Sword God is very afraid of the Lin family.
If he really kills Lin Zhai, the strong men of the Lin family will definitely take action against him. Even if the senior sword god's will comes, he may not be able to escape intact. After all, this is the territory of the royal family. Who knows what the royal family will do?
What the prince said just now was full of threats.
Although he still has the consciousness of the senior tree demon in his body and his life is not in danger, he does not want to use that trump card until he is in a desperate situation. There is still a long way to go.
After careful consideration, Xiao Muyang finally made a decision in his heart.
"I choose the second option." Xiao Muyang looked at Qi Yuan and said, his tone extremely calm.
Countless people looked at Xiao Muyang meaningfully, and finally compromised, but this is a normal thing. Between revenge and survival, anyone will choose the latter. After all, there is only one life. If you keep the green hills, there will be more in the future.
A chance for revenge.
With Xiao Muyang's talent, as long as he is given a few more decades, he will definitely grow into a truly top powerhouse. By then, he can do whatever he wants and no one can stop him.
Of course, the premise is that he can survive until that day.
At this moment, Lin Zhai felt a little relieved. The prince's statement just now that no one was allowed to interfere was definitely not a joke. If Xiao Muyang insisted on killing him, he might really leave his life here.
Fortunately, Xiao Muyang didn't dare to kill him, it was just a false alarm.
Then Lin Zhai looked at Xiao Muyang with cold eyes. Just now was Xiao Muyang's only chance to kill him, and he would not have such an opportunity again in the future.
Qi Yuan looked at Xiao Muyang calmly, with no trace of emotion on his face, as if he had expected Xiao Muyang to make this choice.
"You all go down." Qi Yuan looked at Lin Zhai and others and said.
"Yes." Everyone responded, and their bodies fell downwards one after another.
Xiao Muyang was the only one left in the void.
"I just said that if you give up the fight with Lin Zhai, I will compensate you with a reward. Now I will fulfill my promise." Qi Yuan looked at Xiao Muyang and said, and suddenly countless people had strange looks on their faces. The prince really wanted to reward Xiao Muyang.
?
Is it a real reward or just a courtesy?
Xiao Muyang's heart was calm and he had no expectations for the reward from Qi Yuan. What he was thinking about at this moment was how to leave the palace safely.
"Xiao Muyang accepts the title." Qi Yuan said loudly.
In an instant, the vast space fell silent, and the expressions on countless people's faces were frozen there, almost unable to believe what they had just heard.
Xiao Muyang accepts the seal?
What is the prince doing?
Xiao Muyang's pupils condensed, and he looked at the prince with some surprise. Are you going to reward him?
"I have decreed that Xiao Muyang be ennobled as a first-class marquis. He can enter and leave the palace freely without prior notice."
Qi Yuan spoke again, and as the voice fell, the hearts of countless people trembled violently, and all of them had shocked looks on their faces.
First Class Marquis.
Is this reward from the prince true?
Qi Xian and Qi Min looked at Qi Yuan at the same time, and countless thoughts flashed through their minds.
At the beginning of the birthday party, the prince revealed Xiao Muyang's identity, and then ordered all the geniuses to compete with him, which triggered a battle between Lin Zhai and Xiao Muyang.
It all seemed natural and nothing was wrong, but looking back now, the whole process was carried out under the promotion of the prince, like a plan planned by him.
He first forced Xiao Muyang into a desperate situation and then rewarded him. It was so justified that no one could find fault with it.
From the beginning to the end, what the prince wanted in his mind was not to kill Xiao Muyang, but to bestow him with the highest glory.
Above the marquis is the king. Only those with royal blood can be crowned kings. Even the prince cannot break this rule. Therefore, for people who are not from the royal family, the first-class marquis is the ultimate.
In the entire Da Qi Dynasty, there were only a few first-class marquises, all of whom were prominent figures. Moreover, since the founding of the Da Qi Dynasty, there had never been a precedent for a celestial figure to be granted the title of a marquis, let alone a first-class marquis.
But today, the prince set a precedent.
It's really bold.
Not only them, Xiao Muyang was also very uneasy at the moment. He looked at Qi Yuan with extremely shocked eyes and conferred him the title of first-class marquis. Is this his true intention?
Thinking of what Senior Sword God said, he suddenly understood a lot.
Senior Sword God did not see the wrong person, he was wrong.
The prince's secrets are far from what they seem.
Now he can be sure that the prince has no murderous intention towards him, otherwise he would not be rewarded in front of so many people. With the status of first-class marquis, no one will dare to touch him easily in the future.
But there was still a doubt in his mind, why did the prince treat him like this?
If he grows up, he will pose a great threat to the royal family. Isn't the prince afraid that he will overthrow the royal family?
"Xiao Muyang, are you willing to accept the title?" Qi Yuan asked.
Suddenly, eyes focused on Xiao Muyang. The royal family was behind the death of Chu Xianling. Will he accept the crown prince's reward?
Xiao Muyang looked thoughtful, and then he thought of what Senior Sword God had said before. The purpose of the prince's birthday was to attract him. Now it seems that he wanted to reward him.
If he refuses, everything the prince has done will be in vain. Will the prince let him leave alive by then?
I'm afraid it's impossible.
At this point, he had no other choice but to follow the prince's plan.
"Thank you, Prince, for the reward." Xiao Muyang bowed to Qi Yuan and said. Hearing this voice, countless people's hearts suddenly trembled and their expressions were shocked.
Xiao Muyang put aside the grudges of the past and accepted the crown prince's reward.
From a junior figure with no big power background, to becoming a first-class marquis in the blink of an eye, which no one else could even dream of, but it actually happened to Xiao Muyang, it can be said that he has soared into the sky.
"In addition, I will make you the grandson's young master again, and the future cultivation of the grandson will be entrusted to you." Qi Yuan looked at Xiao Muyang and said, and then looked at Qi Wen beside him: "I haven't paid my respects to the master yet.
"
Qi Wen immediately stood up and bowed in the direction of Xiao Muyang: "Disciple Qi Wen, pay your respects to the master."
Countless people's expressions froze again, as if they didn't react.
Being a first-class marquis was not enough, he also had to be granted the title of Grand Master, Young Master. Even though Xiao Muyang was gifted as a monster, he only had Zhongtian Xiang cultivation level and was less than twenty years old. How could he deserve the title of Grand Master, Young Master?
It would be too childish for the prince to reward him like this!
