A white-haired middle-aged figure was lying on the Taishi chair, his pale face looked very peaceful, his eyes were closed tightly, as if he was resting.
Standing next to the middle-aged man was a boy of about fifteen years old, with an upright body, a delicate face that was slightly childish, and an unconcealable noble temperament between his brows.
Suddenly, a faint wave came from the space, and then a figure in black robes appeared. It was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a cold face and a glimmer of light in his eyes, giving people a sense of place.
A sense of sharpness and majesty.
When Qi Wen saw the middle-aged man in black robe in front of him, a look of respect appeared on his face, he cupped his hands and said, "Uncle Jing."
"Grandson." Jing Xiu looked at Qi Wen and nodded slightly, then moved his eyes to the figure on the Grand Master's chair and said respectfully, "Your Highness, Lin Tianyuan is here."
"Let him come over." Qi Yuan still closed his eyes and spoke a calm voice.
"Yes." Jing Xiu responded, and then disappeared.
A chill appeared on Qi Wen's face, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He already knew what happened in the Lin family a few days ago, and almost killed the teacher. What was Lin Tianyuan's plan when he came to the palace today?
While Qi Wen was thinking secretly, a voice came from the side: "You go down first."
Qi Wen looked stunned and didn't understand why his father wanted to push him away, but he still responded softly: "Yes."
After saying that, he left here, leaving Qi Yuan alone here.
After a while, there was a sound of footsteps approaching from far away. The person who came was a middle-aged man with bright eyes and not much expression on his face, but he looked very majestic. This man was clearly Lin Tianyuan.
"Lin has met His Highness the Crown Prince." Lin Tianyuan stopped and cupped his hands towards Qi Yuan who was sitting on the Grand Master's chair. Although he was saluting, there was no trace of respect on his face.
Qi Yuan finally opened his eyes, his gaze fell on Lin Tianyuan in front of him, and he smiled and said, "It seems that we haven't seen each other for a long time."
Lin Tianyuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded gently: "It's true that we haven't seen each other for many years."
After a pause, he asked tentatively: "His Royal Highness said that he had something important to discuss with Lin. I wonder what it is?"
Qi Yuan showed a faint smile and said: "It's not that important. It's just that I heard that Clan Chief Lin had a conflict with Xiao Hou a few days ago, and Xiao Hou is Taisun's master, so he wanted to help
You want to reconcile the relationship, so let Chief Lin enter the palace to have a talk."
Listening to Qi Yuan's words, Lin Tianyuan's face suddenly darkened, and a bit of chill seemed to emerge. Was he summoned to the palace just to stand up for Xiao Muyang?
Why couldn't he hear that Qi Yuan said he was trying to reconcile the relationship, but in fact he was asking for guilt.
What does Qi Yuan think of him?
"Now that the prince has heard about it, Lin will not explain much. I will explain it to the prince here. Xiao Muyang has made the Lin family suffer such shame and humiliation. One day, the Lin family will definitely pay back a hundred times!" Lin Tianyuan said solemnly, with a smile on his face.
His expression was extremely solemn, and his words conveyed a strong meaning.
He thought that he had given Qi Yuan enough face, otherwise he would not let Xiao Muyang and others leave easily, but Qi Yuan did not care about his face at all, and even summoned him to the palace to question Xiao Muyang.
It's simply too deceiving!
If he doesn't resist now, then he doesn't need to be the leader of the Lin clan.
Qi Yuan did not get angry after hearing Lin Tianyuan's words, and said calmly: "As far as I know, Chief Lin made an exception to open the secret realm to various forces, and Xiao Hou, disguised as the Supreme of Ten Thousand Monster Island, was attacked by several Lin family ancestors in the secret realm.
Attack, I wonder if this is the case?"
Lin Tianyuan's face changed slightly, but he returned to normal in an instant, and said calmly: "There are dangers in the secret realm. I said this in public before entering the secret realm. He was attacked by the ancestors' thoughts, and he must have angered the ancestors.
.”
"Is that so..." Qi Yuan's brows moved slightly, and then he said with a meaningful smile: "It seems that I have mistakenly blamed Patriarch Lin."
Lin Tianyuan's eyes narrowed, and he faintly noticed something was wrong. The attitude of the prince in front of him was too gentle, and he didn't seem to be looking for him to accuse him, but this attitude made him feel uneasy.
"If the prince has nothing important to do, Lin will not bother you." Lin Tianyuan said, trying to get away.
Qi Yuan smiled lightly and said: "Don't worry, I want to introduce someone to you."
Lin Tianyuan's expression condensed and he asked: "Who is it?"
"You can show up now." Qi Yuan said. Naturally, this sentence was not meant for Lin Tianyuan.
The space was quiet for a moment, and then a gray light shone in the space beside Qi Yuan. When the light dissipated, an old man wearing dark gray clothes was seen standing there.
Lin Tianyuan stared at the old man. Although the other man did not release his breath, he had reached the supreme realm and had a very accurate sense of danger. He could be sure that this ordinary-looking old man was actually a man with extremely terrifying strength.
exist.
"Could it be..." Lin Tianyuan's face darkened, and the uneasiness in his heart became more intense. Now he regretted coming to the palace. This prince was much more ruthless than he thought.
However, his face remained calm, he looked at Qi Yuan and asked: "May I ask the prince, who is this senior?"
"Clan Leader Lin must have heard of his name." Qi Yuan said with a smile: "Venerable Bian'an."
"Venerable the other shore!"
At this moment, the calmness on Lin Tianyuan's face completely disappeared, replaced by a look of deep fear. Apparently he had guessed the identity of the old man from Qi Yuan's words.
More than seventy years ago, there was a powerful being who made countless people famous and frightened. Those who offended him ended up dead without their bodies intact. He once poisoned a first-rate force overnight just because the ancestor of that force threatened to find him.
People join forces to deal with him and eliminate harm for the world.
He shocked the world with his powerful poison skills. Because the secret technique he created was related to the Biangan flower, he was called the Venerable Biangan and the Venerable Poison by the world.
I don’t know what happened later, but Venerable Bian’an disappeared, and there was no news related to him again.
Many people think that he was killed by powerful enemies. After all, countless people died at his hands. I don't know how many people regard him as a devil. It is normal for him to be killed by his enemies.
Lin Tianyuan thought so before, but only now did he understand that Lord Bi'an was not dead, but was hiding in the royal family!
Taking a deep breath, Lin Tianyuan glanced at Venerable Bi'an, and said with some emotion: "I didn't expect that the royal family would recruit Venerable Bi'an into their ranks, which really surprised Lin."
Lord Bi'an looked at Lin Tianyuan expressionlessly and stood quietly beside Qi Yuan without saying anything, as if he was just Qi Yuan's foil.
Seeing the attitude of Lord Bian'an toward Qi Yuan, Lin Tianyuan didn't show anything on his face, but it stirred up quite a stir in his heart.
You must know that Venerable Bian'an was once a world-famous being, but now it is very likely that he has stepped into the realm of high-level supreme beings. For the Lin family, he is the ancestor, and even he, the patriarch, cannot mobilize him.
And a person of this level actually obeys Qi Yuan's orders, which is enough to prove how powerful Qi Yuan's power is.
To a certain extent, he is already the emperor.
Lin Tianyuan was full of doubts. Qi Yuan was just an ordinary person with no cultivation. Why did the emperor give him such great power? Aren't he afraid that he would do anything wrong?
"Venerable Bi'an has been coming to the palace for decades and has never shown up. Everyone thought he was dead, and I also hope he is dead." Qi Yuan looked at Lin Tianyuan and said, "What does Patriarch Lin think?"
Lin Tianyuan was so shrewd that he immediately heard the hidden meaning of Qi Yuan's words, nodded and said: "What the prince said is absolutely true, the Lord on the other side is no longer alive."
Qi Yuan smiled slightly when he heard this, and seemed to be very satisfied with Lin Tianyuan's answer.
"Venerable Bian'an wants to ask me to do something, and only Patriarch Lin can help with this matter, so I asked you to come over." Qi Yuan said again.
Lin Tianyuan was suddenly startled. What could he only help with?
"Your Highness, please tell me that if Lin can help, he will do his best." Lin Tianyuan replied, his attitude was much more polite than before. The reason for this change was naturally because of the old man beside Qi Yuan.
"For Patriarch Lin, it is not a difficult task."
Qi Yuan said calmly: "I hope that within the next six months, the Lin family will not put pressure on Yunxiao City by any means."
Although Qi Yuan's voice was very calm, it made the veins on Lin Tianyuan's face bulge, and a flash of anger flashed deep in his eyes. Now he finally understood Qi Yuan's intention of asking him to come to the palace.
It wasn't Lord Bian'an who asked him for help, but Qi Yuan used Lord Bian'an to threaten him.
Glancing at Lord Bian'an, Lin Tianyuan suppressed the anger in his heart, clasped his fists at Qi Yuan and said: "Your Highness should know what kind of humiliation Xiao Muyang has brought to the Lin family. The Lin family is the first family, how can we let it go?
He humiliates without fighting back."
"Is the request His Highness made just now too biased towards him? Even though he is Master Taisun, the relationship between Lin and the royal family..."
Lin Tianyuan did not continue to speak, and he stopped talking at some points, which made it difficult for both parties to step down.
Qi Yuan's face remained calm and said: "I didn't say that you are not allowed to fight back. As long as you don't move to Yunxiao City within half a year, you will have fulfilled my request."
Lin Tianyuan didn't reply. Although half a year was not a long time, he couldn't swallow it. Why should he wait for half a year?
Lin is the greatest contributor to the Qi Dynasty. Except for the royal family, no force can make Lin bow his head. Who is Xiao Muyang, worthy of letting him compromise?
Seeing Lin Tianyuan's silence, Qi Yuan chuckled and said: "It seems that Patriarch Lin is not willing to agree to the request of this king."
"Xiao Muyang bullied Mrs. Lin too much. If she doesn't fight back, Mrs. Lin will have no face to speak of. I hope Your Highness will forgive me." Lin Tianyuan said with a very serious face: "Apart from this matter, for other things, even if the prince speaks, Lin will never
shirk."
Qi Yuan smiled slightly: "Clan Chief Lin is unwilling to agree, and I can't force him, so I'll ask Chief Lin to agree to another thing."
"Your Highness, please speak." Lin Tianyuan said.
"Venerable Bian'an has always wanted to learn the power of Lin's Sky Thunder Tower. Today, Clan Chief Lin is here, so how about we have a discussion with Venerable Bian'an." Qi Yuan said with a light smile, his tone relaxed and casual.
Lin Tianyuan's expression suddenly changed, and there was a trace of fear in his eyes.
Even if he is a middle-level Supreme cultivator, he is absolutely unwilling to fight against the Venerable Bian'an. After all, the opponent's poisonous skills are unpredictable and difficult to guard against, and the opponent's strength is likely to be superior to his.
How could he not understand at this moment that Qi Yuan was clearly forcing him to make a choice, either agree to the request just now, or fight the Lord Bian'an.
What a cruel method.
Before coming to the palace, he had a somewhat contemptuous attitude toward the prince, treating him as a prince in name only. But now he deeply realizes that it is not those with strong cultivation who can threaten others.
When the status reaches a certain height, ordinary people without cultivation will also kill others.
"Clan Leader Lin should not refuse this matter anymore." Qi Yuan looked at Lin Tianyuan with a smile, his tone still calm.
Lin Tianyuan's face turned ugly. He knew that if he refused again, Qi Yuan would never speak to him in such a gentle manner again.
After a moment of silence, Lin Tianyuan finally made a decision. He stared at Venerable Bi'an and said in a deep voice: "Then I'll ask senior for advice."
Venerable Bian'an didn't reply, and walked upward into the sky.
Lin Tianyuan saw this and stepped up. If a fight started here, how could an ordinary person like Qi Yuan bear it?
A moment later, extremely powerful fluctuations erupted in the boundless void. The green light and the purple thunder light complemented each other. The scene was strange and terrifying. The space was in violent shock, as if it was about to collapse and shatter.
Below, Qi Yuan was lying on the Grand Master's chair with a calm expression, seemingly not caring about the battle above.
No matter which condition Lin Tianyuan chooses, his goal will be achieved, but there is no need to suffer pain if he chooses the former, but Lin Tianyuan chose the latter.
After half an hour, the movement in the sky gradually weakened and finally subsided completely.
Two figures descended from the sky. Lord Bian'an still landed beside Qi Yuan, while Lin Tianyuan landed in front of Qi Yuan. At this time, his face showed a light cyan luster, like a demon walking out of hell, which made him
One look at it will make people feel fearful.
Obviously, Lin Tianyuan was poisoned.
With Lin Tianyuan's powerful strength, ordinary poisons cannot affect him at all, but the poison of Lord Bian'an is the most poisonous in the Qi Dynasty. Even if it cannot kill him, it is enough to cause him great trouble.
Feeling that the toxins in his body were spreading rapidly, Lin Tianyuan's already ugly face turned ferocious. He looked at Lord Bi'an and said in a deep voice: "Senior, please bring out the antidote."
"There is never an antidote for my poison." Venerable Bian'an replied calmly.
Lin Tianyuan's expression changed drastically. How could there be no antidote?
But before he could ask, Venerable Bian'an spoke again: "After half a year, the toxins in your body will disappear automatically, but you must not use spiritual energy during this six months, otherwise the toxins will invade your internal organs and you will be exhausted.
"
After hearing this, Lin Tianyuan's pupils shrank and he immediately stopped running his spiritual energy. As expected, the toxins no longer spread, confirming the words of Lord Bian'an.
Then he looked at Qi Yuan and said through gritted teeth: "The prince really took great pains to protect Xiao Muyang!"
Qi Yuan didn't care about Lin Tianyuan's feelings at all, and said with a smile: "He is Taisun's master, so naturally I have to take care of him more."
After speaking, he paused for a moment, and then said: "In addition, I would like to remind Patriarch Lin that those toxins contain the thoughts of Venerable Bian'an. In the past six months, Patriarch Lin has been cultivating himself at home to avoid the spread of toxins and endangering his life.
.”
Lin Tianyuan's face turned extremely ugly for a moment, and he looked at Qi Yuan angrily. This method was simply too despicable!
