Chapter 2122 The Emperor is seriously ill, and nine princes vie for the throne!

Lin Tianhao glanced at Mo Xunyanxue and laughed, "How dare you call yourself a girl?"

“If you stand outside and say you are the most beautiful courtesan in the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, I doubt anyone would deny it.”

"you--"

Mo Xunyanxue felt that she had gotten used to Lin Tianhao's sharp tongue, but every time she heard Lin Tianhao's words, she was still so angry that her teeth itched.

"You guessed right, this guy carried everything with him, thirteen million taels of silver."

Mo Xunyanxue found a stack of silver notes on Yan Changhai.

"This is... the Blood Demon Technique?"

Mo Xunyanxue's expression clearly became serious. Her gaze fell on Lin Tianhao, as if she were asking him how to deal with the Blood Demon Technique.

"Why are you looking at me? What do you think we should do with this Blood Demon Technique?" Lin Tianhao asked.

“Write it down, then destroy it,” Mo Xunyanxue said.

"If this kind of thing is left behind and discovered, the consequences will be unimaginable."

"However, the Blood Demon Technique is extremely domineering and its improvement speed is also very fast. It can be used as a backup technique. If one day we are forced to have no other choice, it is not impossible to cultivate it."

Lin Tianhao took the Blood Demon Technique. With his powerful soul force, he memorized it after only reading it once.

"This Blood Demon Technique, which uses blood directly for cultivation, is indeed domineering."

Sword energy surged from Lin Tianhao's palm, tearing the two Blood Demon Techniques to shreds.

"you--"

"Didn't we agree to write it down first? Why did you..."

That’s it.

Mo Xunyanxue seemed to have thought of something, "No, you have divine sense, so you might be able to remember everything you see, so... you memorized it."

"But I haven't seen it yet!"

Lin Tianhao smiled and said, "This Blood Demon Technique is not suitable for you to cultivate. It would be bad for you if you saw it. I'm only doing this for your own good."

"you--"

Mo Xunyanxue threw the silver note at Lin Tianhao.

"You better not pray that my martial arts level surpasses yours, otherwise... I'll definitely show you how powerful I am!"

After saying this.

Mo Xunyanxue then dragged Mo Xunyanxue's body away.

Lin Tianhao glanced at Yan Changhai's corpse and couldn't help but rub his temples.

These are truly turbulent times.

Others may not know, but he knows very well that behind Yan Changhai is an old monster from the Blood Demon Cult.

With so much time having passed, the old monster's injuries have most likely healed.

All he could do was pray that the experts from the Great Yu Divine Martial Division would be able to help him kill that old monster from the Blood Demon Cult, so that he could have more time to develop.

As Lin Tianhao was thinking this.

In an inn in Moxue City, the Blood Demon Ancestor glanced at a pot of blood-red flowers in front of him.

The blood-red flower withered at a speed visible to the naked eye, the whole process taking no more than three seconds.

"It has withered."

The Blood Demon Ancestor frowned. "Yan Changhai is already a half-step Grandmaster. There wasn't even any sound of fighting coming from the direction of the City Lord's Mansion, which means that the person who made the move is at least a mid-stage Grandmaster, or even stronger."

"Damn it, so many people have died. We were just about to cultivate a new martial arts grandmaster for the Blood Demon Cult, and now they're all dead!"

The words fell.

With a wave of her hand, the Blood Demon Ancestor turned the flower into dust, and she herself turned and disappeared.

……

Since Yan Changhai arrived, Mo Xue Territory and Wu Feng Territory have once again entered a period of peace and stability.

Lin Tianhao also spent his days in monotonous cultivation, constantly accumulating strength and improving the quality of his army, rather than its quantity.

If his army were too large, both Yu the Great and the Northern Barbarians would regard him as a thorn in their side.

At that time, we will be attacked from both sides, so how can we talk about achieving great things?

that's it.

Lin Tianhao maintained a stable presence in Moxue Territory for another year.

In that year, the situation of the Yu Dynasty was precarious. Emperor Yu fell seriously ill, and the legendary struggle for succession among the nine princes began. The ministers were in a state of great distress over the matter of choosing a crown prince.

But Lin Tianhao felt that something was amiss.

Although the old emperor of the Yu Dynasty was over a hundred years old, he was said to be a true grandmaster.

Moreover, he achieved the Grandmaster realm as early as thirty years ago, and his current realm is probably already in the mid-to-late stage of the Grandmaster realm.

According to Mo Xunyanxue, a martial arts grandmaster can live to be around 150 years old, and a martial arts grandmaster can live to be around 300 years old.

This is only the initial stage of the corresponding realm.

In the middle and late stages of the Grandmaster realm, lifespan will increase.

Emperor Yu the Great fell seriously ill, reportedly due to a relapse of an old ailment he had sustained while besieging the Blood Demon Cult.

His injuries never fully healed, which is why he is already nearing the end of his life at just over a hundred years old.

Nine Princes Struggle for the Throne!

This is going to be a good show!

It could be described as a struggle for the throne among nine princes. The eldest prince of Yu the Great was said to be eighty years old, meaning he had not yet been named crown prince.

Otherwise, someone would say, "How can a prince be a prince for eighty years?"

But so be it.

This situation is quite common in this world. After all, if Emperor Yu hadn't been injured, these princes, even at two or three hundred years old, might not have had the chance to compete for that position.

But Lin Tianhao has met far too many people and experienced far too many things.

and so.

Lin Tianhao didn't quite believe that Emperor Yu the Great was truly incapacitated.

This situation either indicates a desire to step back from the limelight or an attempt to prematurely initiate the struggle for succession among the princes.

just.

The Great Yu Dynasty was already in a precarious state, and Emperor Yu's actions were quite risky.

"I see."

Lin Tianhao's eyes lit up; he already had the answer in his mind.

The "Nine Princes' Struggle for the Throne" was, in reality, a scheme to see the princes fight amongst themselves and weaken their power.

The Great Yu Dynasty had eight hundred vassal states, which meant eight hundred territories.

Although most of the territories consisted of only a small city and had a small military force, it would have been very easy for the Yu Dynasty to subdue them.

But the rabbit dies and the fox grieves.

Taking action against the feudal lords without a legitimate reason can easily provoke a united attack from other feudal lords.

however.

If the Nine Princes' Succession Struggle is initiated ahead of schedule, these nine princes will inevitably try to win over the feudal lords and participate in the struggle for the throne.

Normally, those feudal lords would just want to watch the show, but in the current situation, without some strength, it's impossible to just watch.

Because the Northern Mang Dynasty is still eyeing us covetously, if we don't choose sides, we might be attacked from both sides. Even among those powerful lords, I dare not do that.

Moreover, the merit of following the emperor is no joke.

Throughout history, countless people have risked everything for this cause of helping the emperor rise to power.

and so.

Once the struggle for the throne among the nine princes begins, the strength of the eight hundred princes will definitely be greatly reduced.

only.

In this game, the Northern Mang Dynasty is very likely to reap the benefits.

and so.

Someone is needed to stabilize the situation at critical moments.

The person who stabilized the situation was most likely the current Emperor Yu the Great.

However, in order to stabilize the situation, the Yu Dynasty needed someone who could keep order and control the situation.

Could it be that... the current emperor of the Great Yu Dynasty has already reached the level of a terrestrial immortal?
