Chapter 707: The Difficulty of the Heavenly Xuanmen
The night at the palace was unusually cold, and the guards guarding the outside of the palace gates couldn't help but crane their necks to ward off the cold. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info However, even under such harsh conditions, no one dared to slack off in the slightest. They knew that tonight's events were crucial to the lifeblood of the entire royal family, and whether or not they could stand at the pinnacle of the human race was a matter of action.
However, just on the street outside the palace, a group of people suddenly appeared. They are in a hurry, but they are orderly, and they look like professionally trained personnel. And the leader is Chen Xuanfeng, who appeared on the outskirts of the imperial city during the day, the master of Tianxuanmen.
"Door master, do we really want to go in? My subordinates are worried that there will be danger inside!"
The one who spoke was Chen Xuanji, the deputy master of Tianxuanmen, who was Chen Xuanfeng's younger brother and the most likely candidate to become the next master besides Chen Jinglun. But now it's okay, Chen Jinglun is dead, and his biggest competitor no longer exists, so it's only a matter of time before he sits on the top spot in Tianxuanmen. It stands to reason that Chen Jinglun has an accident, and Chen Xuanji should be very happy. But in order not to expose his true nature too early, he had to pretend to be extremely sad to win the favor of his eldest brother.
Chen Xuanfeng glanced at the tricky black tower, and his eyes flickered: "Xuanji, I know that you are for my good." However, the events of the day have already made me very uneasy, and I always feel that something big will happen on the Rising Continent. ”
Chen Xuanji bowed down and said again: "In this case, why doesn't the door master lead us to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible." It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Anyway, we also know that the young master had an accident in Cangbei Xianyuan, and it is not too late to go to the door to confront him after this gust of limelight. ”
Chen Xuanfeng glanced at the other party, and then said in a trembling voice: "However, I just received the news that just a few days ago, Cangbei Immortal Garden had been slaughtered. ”
When he heard the news, Chen Xuanfeng was overjoyed at first, but then his face sank and he exclaimed, "This ...... What a terrifying force that can eradicate Cangbei Immortal Garden!"
Chen Xuanfeng shook his head and said: "The destruction of Cangbei Immortal Garden is already a well-known thing to the world, but there is still no conclusion as to who is the real murderer. However, it is foreseeable that this should be related to the recent actions of the royal family of the Rising Continent. Now that we go to the palace, we may find some truth. ”
"However, since Cangbei Xianyuan has been uprooted, it stands to reason that the murderer of the young master of Jinglun should have been eliminated together! ”
Chen Xuanfeng looked around at his disciples and found that he didn't pay attention to himself, so he leaned into Chen Xuanji's ear and said softly: "I heard that the royal family is planning a huge conspiracy that cannot be heard. If this is successful, the entire royal family will be rewarded with eternal merit. Although I don't know the details, I judge from years of experience that I feel that this must have something to do with improving cultivation and repairing the road. ”
"Repair the Immortal Road, does the Sect Master mean that we mortals can also have a chance to become immortals?"
Chen Xuanfeng bowed his head and said: "This should be the meaning, otherwise I can't imagine that there is any other way for the royal family to improve the level of all members in a short period of time." I think that if we can seize the opportunity this time, maybe Tianxuanmen can also get benefits, and even become the pinnacle force on the Penglai Continent, such a temptation is too great. No matter how many unknowns and dangers lie ahead, I will give up my life to try. ”
Chen Xuanfeng thought that his younger brother would stop it immediately after listening to his analysis, but the other party said happily: "The master of the door is really far-sighted, and we and other ordinary people really can't be compared." Since you have made up your mind, your subordinates will go to the soup and fire, and they will not give up. ”
After hearing Chen Xuanji's impassioned statement, Chen Xuanfeng couldn't help but be moved by the other party's words, he stretched out his palm, gently pressed it on the other party's shoulder, and said earnestly: "Sure enough, at this critical juncture, only your own family is the most solid backing." Brother, don't worry, if you encounter danger inside, even if I die, I will protect you!"
Chen Xuanji paused in amazement for a moment, and then lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "The door master is serious. ”
Chen Xuanfeng picked up Chen Xuanji with both hands, but before the other party could raise his head, he had already preemptively said: "Xuanji, you tell me the truth, over the years, have you hated me because I prefer to protect Jinglun?"
"The master of the door is too worried, and his subordinates don't dare. Young Master Jinglun is your only son and my own nephew, I can't love him yet, how can I complain? Listen to me, don't listen to the gossip of the disciples below, their words are not enough to believe. ”
Chen Xuanfeng nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Actually, I haven't heard any words either. It was only after Jinglun's accident that I found out that over the years, I didn't care about you, my dear relative, and I didn't even fulfill my responsibilities as an elder brother. From this point of view, I really owe you a lot. However, you know all this, but you choose to be silent and secretly pay too much for me. Actually, there is one thing you may not know. ”
Chen Xuanji smiled and said, "Door master, please speak." ”
Chen Xuanfeng let out a long sigh, and then said, "It's true that I'm a little too doting on Jinglun, but that's just a kind of compensation for my dead mother." In my eyes, the next master of Tianxuanmen can only be Chen Xuanji, and it will never be Chen Jinglun. ”
Hearing this, Chen Xuanji's smile became more and more intense, and at first glance it seemed to be very honest, but if you look closely, you can see that there is a bit of contempt in his smile.
"Door master, you can think so, your subordinates are quite content. But as for the position of the master, his subordinates have never thought about it. ”
Chen Xuanfeng said: "Hey, it's time for this, so don't shirk anymore." Jinglun is no longer there, only you are the most suitable person. ”
Just when Chen Xuanfeng thought that his younger brother was about to promise him, Chen Xuanji suddenly said: "What does the door master mean is that if the young master has not had an accident, then he is the best candidate for the next door master?"
"No, that's not what I meant. Just ......"
For some reason, Chen Xuanfeng, who was much higher than the other party in terms of seniority, identity, cultivation, and even prestige, immediately became nervous and helpless after hearing what he said just now, and in just a few breaths, there was already sweat on his forehead, and his face was no longer as natural as before.
"Door master, don't worry too much, your subordinates are just talking, don't put it in your heart. It's already 10 midnight, and I'm afraid it will be inconvenient to enter the city, do we have to break through?"
Chen Xuanji, who was in control of the rhythm, shifted the focus of the two to the matter in front of them with a word, Chen Xuanfeng suddenly realized, and then said: "It is not good for anyone to have a conflict with the people of the royal family now. Otherwise, we asked them if they could make it easy for us to let us in. Let's just say that if something happens, Tianxuanmen is willing to help with all its might. At this critical juncture, they shouldn't mind having an extra helper, right?"
Chen Xuanji pondered for a moment, and then said: "However, we have no evidence, why would they believe our one-sided words? Could it be that the people of the royal family will not suspect that we are doing something wrong?"
Chen Xuanfeng said: "Whether he suspects it or not, I, Chen Xuanfeng, have arrived at the door, can they still coax me to go back?" Besides, if they can't be friends at this time, it means that there will be a new enemy on their opposite side, and they definitely don't want to see such a result, right?"
Chen Xuanji said: "The master of the door is wise, and his subordinates sigh to themselves. ”
Chen Xuanfeng said with a slight expression: "Since this is the case, let's set off now." “
At the sound of an order, hundreds of Tianxuanmen people lined up in a long line, and little by little they entered the line of sight of the royal guards. However, what made Chen Xuanfeng feel strange was that the four guards in front of the city gate did not have a guard posture at all, and the four people poked straight in place like four pillars, not moving, as if they had not seen the comer at all.
"The four officials, in the lower Tianxuanmen Gate Master Tianxuanfeng, have something to ask to see the emperor, and they are troubled to report it. ”
Chen Xuanfeng took a step forward and said respectfully with his fists clenched. However, the four guards in front of the door looked extremely arrogant, and they still ignored each other after the other party revealed their identities first, and they didn't even mean to respond. Seeing this, Chen Xuanfeng's heart couldn't help but rise with anger, but thinking of the overall situation, he had to continue while walking forward: "Officials, please report it, Chen is grateful......"
At this point, Chen Xuanfeng no longer spoke. He looked at the four guards in front of the door, and his eyes were straight. They had been dead for a long time, and they had become four stiff corpses. And before that, he didn't even notice it. This shows how skillful the murderer's methods are.
Until this time, Chen Xuanji also discovered the strangeness of the matter and knew the truth that the guard was dead. In addition to being shocked, he hurriedly reminded Chen Xuanfeng: "Sect Master, this place is unusual, if you enter rashly again, I'm afraid the future will be uncertain." ”
Chen Xuanfeng clenched his fists, and then said: "It's all here, how can there be any reason to give up halfway." Don't worry, with me, no one can hurt us Tianxuanmen people. ”
As he spoke, Chen Xuanfeng was about to walk towards the door, but at this moment, a ghost-like figure suddenly flashed into everyone's sight, and landed in front of the city gate with his wonderful body.
"The prince has an order, idle people, etc., those who trespass on the palace will be killed. ”
Chen Xuanfeng looked the other party's appearance up and down, and then chuckled: "Hehe, it's up to you, do you know who I am?"
The man said lightly: "The master of the Tianxuanmen Gate, Chen Xuanfeng." ”
"You! How do you know where I came from!"
The man said, "Because others have already passed through my anger." I know exactly where you came from, how many of you are, and what your strength is. But the ugly words are said in the front, with your current strength, trying to pass through this city gate is tantamount to killing yourself, you better be smart. ”
Chen Xuanfeng exclaimed: "You...... Who the hell are you?"
The man smiled and said, "My name is Extraordinary, you can also call me Zhi'er." ”
