Chapter 114 A Misunderstanding?

Chapter 114 A misunderstanding?

"Sect Master Ning, you cannot trust this person."

Marshal Ge Long is a person who is very hostile to Wuhun Palace.

He was born into a great noble family, and his family had been rooted in the Tiandou military for generations. His influence in the army was unparalleled by any family in the entire Tiandou Empire.

Moreover, Marshal Ge Long himself is very talented as a soul master. He is only in his early forties, and he already has a soul power cultivation level close to that of a Contra, and has the potential to become a titled Douluo.

He was even known as the 'Nine-Life Divine Dragon'. He had succeeded his old father and became the number one person in the Tiandou Empire's military, with a power position second only to Emperor Xue Ye.

He stood up to stop him, and Ning Fengzhi couldn't ignore it.

"Marshal, if there is a way to save His Majesty and the Crown Prince, please take action quickly. His Highness the Crown Prince will not be able to hold on for long. If there is no other way, why not let His Highness the Holy Son give it a try?"

Ning Fengzhi had no choice. His Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was mainly for amplifying attributes, and its healing ability was only incidental. It would be very difficult to temporarily suppress the poison on the prince, but it really couldn't be cured.

The key is that Xue Qinghe can no longer afford to hold him back. If he waits for the war to end before trying to find a way to treat him, he will have died long ago.

As for Emperor Xue Ye, Ning Fengzhi has given up on treatment.

"Hmph, the poison was all caused by this little thief. Who knows if he is going to take advantage of the opportunity to take action when he is close to His Majesty and the Crown Prince?"

Marshal Ge Long disliked the people in Wuhun Hall, and he had long believed that the poison was inflicted by Wang Shenmeng.

His family was a noble family that had been inherited for thousands of years, and the rise of civilian soul masters was the most unwelcome. However, Wuhun Palace awakened countless civilian soul masters every year, which had an impact on their aristocratic status.

When commoners awaken their martial souls, they not only gain power, but also gain the status of a noble. They will inevitably compete for resources with established nobles like them.

Therefore, according to the ideas of these long-established nobles, the common people should work for them honestly, instead of always hoping to make a comeback by awakening the martial soul.

Wang Shenmeng did not tolerate him, and sneered: "Okay, I have the ability to save the emperor and the prince. Marshal Ge Long is indiscriminate and insists on blocking them. What is his intention? Could it be that you poisoned him and wanted to poison your majesty?" Prince He, would you like to take my place?"

"As the old saying goes. My family has been loyal to your majesty for generations. How could I possibly poison your majesty?"

Marshal Ge Long was extremely angry. As the number one noble family in the Tiandou Empire, their family had always been feared by the royal family, fearing that they would be replaced one day. Wang Shenmeng's words were heartbreaking.

"It's not you who poisoned me. Why do you keep stopping me from saving His Majesty and the Crown Prince? You are incapable of saving yourself, but you don't let others save you. You want His Majesty and the Crown Prince to die. I suspect that you are trying to pull something off from me now, that is. We are stalling for time so that His Majesty and His Highness the Crown Prince can die from the poison."

Wang Shenmeng glanced at everyone and saw that all the senior officials of the Tiandou Empire changed their expressions. It was obvious that they were a little shaken in their hearts.

In fact, it is not that easy to poison His Majesty the Emperor. Ning Fengzhi once said that Emperor Xueye was poisoned by a strange mixture of poisons. He first took a poison, lurked in his body, and then triggered it at a critical moment.

The problem is that he has access to His Majesty the Emperor's food and drink. In addition to the Holy Son of Wuhundian who shows his uncanny ability, the empire's top officials are also suspected!

For example, it would be too easy for important officials of the empire such as Prince Xue Xing and Marshal Ge Long to bribe a few maids and eunuchs around Emperor Xue Ye. It would be abnormal not to have an informant.

"You are spitting blood, okay, I will let you save His Majesty. You are the one who poisoned him anyway, so you naturally have the antidote. You poisoned His Majesty and pretended to be a good person. What do you think you are doing?"

Marshal Ge Long felt the strange eyes around him and couldn't bear the pressure, so he had to compromise. However, he felt uncomfortable and couldn't help but sneered.

Wang Shenmeng glanced at several royal antiques from the Tiandou Empire, and sneered: "I came to save the emperor and the prince with good intentions, but I was blocked and framed by people with ulterior motives, so I will die. Anyway, the Tiandou Emperor and the prince have nothing to do with me. , if you die, you will die. It's a pity that Marshal Ge Long's wish was fulfilled, but if you become the emperor, the Tiandou Empire will definitely be in chaos, which is not a bad thing for my Spirit Hall."

"Your Highness, I believe in your innocence. Marshal Ge Long is just too excited. Please don't argue with him."

Seeing that the situation in Xueqinghe was getting worse and worse, Ning Fengzhi had no choice but to put aside his efforts to smooth things over. Is the man behind the scenes really Marshal Ge Long?

Ning Fengzhi is not the only one who has this idea.

According to the idea of ​​who benefits and who is behind the scenes, the Holy Son of Wuhundian really has no motive for regicide.

With the strength he showed, it was really not difficult to kill Prince Snow Star. Moreover, it was to avenge his parents. It was completely morally justified and no one would blame him for it.

If you give me a random step afterwards, the Tiandou imperial family will definitely follow the same path. Forget it, why do you have to be notorious for killing the king and the prince, and completely break up with the Tiandou empire?

This is of no benefit at all!

On the contrary, there were many people in the empire who had the motive of regicide, including Prince Xuexing and Marshal Ge Long, because both the emperor and the prince were dead, and the remaining prince, Xue Beng, was a good-for-nothing and could not control the situation at all.

If the empire is in chaos, they, the powerful officials who are subordinate to one person and more than ten thousand people, will all have the opportunity to rise to power.

After the regicide, there are even ready-made scapegoats. Who makes the Holy Son of Wuhun Palace have a grudge against the Tiandou royal family and has the ability to regicide?

Thinking of this, the expressions of several royal family antiques became ugly. Instead, they felt that the Holy Son of Wuhun Palace was not really suspicious.

An old man with white hair said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, please calm down. Marshal Ge Long was in a hurry and misunderstood Your Highness. I apologize to you on his behalf. Please, Your Highness, be sure to rescue Your Majesty and the Crown Prince. The empire will surely repay you generously."

Wang Shenmeng didn't buy it: "I have to apologize and let Marshal Ge Long do it by himself. There is no need for others to take his place. He smeared my innocence out of thin air. If it weren't for the fact that he was the Marshal of the Empire, I would have killed him long ago. If he hadn't come out. I will kneel down and apologize sincerely, but I will not take action. If the emperor and the prince die because of this, it will be Marshal Ge Long who caused them to die."

"you……"

Ge Long's face was livid. How could he be asked to kneel down and apologize to the little baby from Wuhun Hall?

Wang Shenmeng glanced at Marshal Ge Long and sneered secretly.

This man is a famous general of the Tiandou Empire, but his military ability leaves people speechless.

In the original work, during the Battle of Jialing Pass, he was the commander-in-chief of the three armies. Even Xue Beng, who was already the emperor, did not dare to offend him, and he looked down on Tang San, who was almost becoming a god. As a result, Tang San only mentioned a tactic of sneak attack on the logistics, which shocked Marshal Ge Long to the point of being stunned.

Therefore, it is self-evident how talented this so-called famous general and the number one person in the imperial military is. His background is definitely the main reason for being able to rise to the top. The remaining small part of the reason is probably his Contra strength. As for his personal commanding ability , don’t mention it.

"Forget it if you don't apologize. It seems that your so-called loyalty is just talk. His Majesty the Emperor's life is at stake, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also waiting for treatment. You first blocked the treatment, and now for the sake of your own petty face, you refuse to let His Majesty receive treatment. . Your wolfish ambitions have been revealed, and I wish that His Majesty and the Crown Prince would die soon."

Wang Shenmeng's words were like daggers, and every word was heart-piercing. Everyone in the Tiandou royal family changed their expressions. They felt that his words were too reasonable. Marshal Ge Long could not see where his loyalty was at all, not to mention that he would go through fire and water for His Majesty, and his heart would be ruined. , but in order to save His Majesty and the Crown Prince, he is not even willing to sacrifice his personal face and dignity. Is this a loyal minister?

What's more, the main person responsible for the failure of His Majesty and the Crown Prince to receive treatment is Ge Long himself. Not only did he not try to atone for his crimes, but he continued to add more crimes to his crimes. It was simply unreasonable.

"Ge Long, in the name of the Tiandou royal family, I order you to kneel down and apologize to His Highness the Holy Son immediately."

The old man from the Tiandou royal family spoke solemnly and looked at Ge Long: "Ge Long, the time has come to prove your loyalty to His Majesty and the empire. If you still have loyalty in your heart, accept the order immediately."

"I……"

Marshal Ge Long felt extremely aggrieved, but as he saw more and more people around him looking at him with unkind eyes, they were clearly suspicious of him. Although he was not the mastermind behind the scenes, this performance could hardly be called loyal.

"I apologize!"

Marshal Ge Long was suddenly shocked. He realized that he was already in great danger and was in the crosshairs. If he hesitated again, he would be executed immediately.

<divclass="contentadv"> Unable to withstand the pressure, Marshal Ge Long knelt down on the spot. The hatred in his heart was that he still believed that it was the Holy Son of Wuhun Palace who poisoned His Majesty and the Crown Prince. He was clearly not wrong. But he was slandered by this treacherous little thief.

"I, Ge Long, have misunderstood His Highness the Holy Son. I ask His Highness the Holy Son to forgive me."

"That's all. Your Majesty and the Crown Prince entertained me warmly, but something like this happened. I can't just stand by and watch. Now that Marshal Gelong has realized his mistake, I will try my best."

Everyone got out of the way, and Wang Shenmeng walked to Xue Qinghe and Emperor Xue Ye.

At this time, both of them were in extremely poor condition. Emperor Xueye was so angry that he almost died.

Xue Qinghe was still barely conscious, but he could not speak, his face was pale, his breath was weak, and his vitality was continuing to drain away. Soon, he would follow in the footsteps of Emperor Xue Ye.

"Everyone stop, this is a misunderstanding."

The elder of the Tiandou royal family ordered loudly, and all the powerful men who surrounded Guang Ling Douluo were almost crying. They misunderstood that you had told them earlier and quickly retreated.

In such a short time, a large number of people have died. Light Ling Douluo is not a vegetarian. Although he has a playful attitude, he also has targeted killings. Anyone who expresses his deep hatred and disgust towards Wuhun Palace Soul masters are all dead souls under his command.

After a series of killings, the others have long been frightened. They can't beat them and can't retreat, not to mention how uncomfortable they are.

"puff!"

In the end, Light Ling Douluo casually shot and killed a Soul Saint. Although Yaucai lost his identity, it was quite satisfying to kill, which made him feel a little satisfied.

"You can let others go and capture Prince Snow Star."

Wang Shenmeng ordered.

The powerful men in the Tiandou Empire had long been afraid, and had received the order to cease the war. At this time, no one intervened to stop them.

Everyone knew that Prince Xuexing had a sworn feud with the Holy Son of Wuhun Palace, and they would definitely not let him go. Now that they were still counting on the Holy Son to save the emperor and the prince, they could only give up on Prince Xuexing with tears in their eyes.

"go!"

Dugu Bo suddenly forced Ling Yuan Douluo back with a blast of venom, then grabbed Prince Xue Xing and fled out of the palace quickly, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

"Chase!"

Lingyuan Douluo quickly chased after him.

"Wait, they can't run away, the most important thing is to protect His Highness first."

However, Light Ling Douluo blocked Ling Yuan Douluo. He knew that Prince Snow Star had been possessed by His Highness with the means of distracting thoughts and thoughts. He separated a stream of mental power and thoughts, transformed into a divine butterfly and left the body, twisting and turning. Prince Snow Star has seven emotions and six senses, and at the same time, he can also lock his position.

Prince Snow Star couldn't run away anyway, so there was no need to rush, the priority was still to protect His Highness.

He did not forget that there was also a super Douluo from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect on the scene. With the blessing increase of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, these two people must not be underestimated.

What's more, on other people's territory, who knows if there are any hidden strong men or powerful weapons. If they chase them out and His Highness is harmed, it will be more of a loss than a gain.

"Yes, I didn't think carefully, and Your Majesty reminded me in time."

Lingyuan Douluo also thought of this level, and quickly stopped, and together with Light Ling Douluo, they formed a glyph guard around King Shenmeng.

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo's eyes were twitching, and they were extremely fearful, fearing that the other party would take the opportunity to attack.

At such a close distance, if one party were to suddenly attack without preparedness, it would be really difficult to withstand, and the damage caused would definitely be tons.

Sword Douluo glanced at Wang Shenmeng and felt extremely depressed. The mental injury caused a tearing pain in his head. Although it was unknown, it was still uncomfortable.

He now no longer dares to underestimate Wang Shenmeng. Although the other party's soul skill cannot kill him, it is almost invincible. If it hits him a few more times, he doesn't know if he can withstand it. It will be very uncomfortable anyway.

However, he believed that such an attack would consume a lot of mental energy, and the Holy Son of Wuhun Palace should not be able to use it more than a few times.

Wang Shenmeng didn't pay attention to the two sides' wariness, and he immediately used his fourth soul skill.

"Eternal life continues!"

This is the soul skill of Evergreen Butterfly. It can heal not only physical damage, but also mental and even soul damage. It is the nemesis of all poisons.

He didn't need to analyze the poison on Emperor Xue Ye and Xue Qinghe at all, because he provided the poison to Prince Xue Xing, but Prince Xue Xing's six senses and even memory were distorted, thinking that he had collected it himself.

It has to be said that Prince Snow Star's strength is low, and his spiritual world is far inferior to Tang San's. Tang San's spiritual world can kill titled Douluo. Wang Shenmeng entered his spiritual world at that time, but he was fully prepared. Be cautious and go all out, not daring to distract him in the slightest.

But when dealing with Prince Snow Star, he only separated a small part of his mind and transformed into a divine butterfly to leave the body and make Prince Snow Star unable to resist. He was directly put into the information cocoon room. What he saw was Everything he heard was what Wang Shenmeng asked him to see and hear, and then he stepped into the abyss step by step according to the script he planned.

As the huge life force was poured into the bodies of Emperor Xue Ye and Xue Qinghe, the toxins in their bodies were quickly resolved.

The serum's complexion gradually returned to normal, and even under the nourishment of the power of life, it quickly returned to the state before the poisoning, making everyone numb in shock.

Xue Qinghe recovered, and everyone finally let go of their suspenseful hearts. They finally believed that the person who poisoned His Majesty and the Crown Prince was not the Holy Son of Wuhun Palace.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, secretly glad that they no longer had to deal with Wuhun Palace.

After experiencing a great battle and seeing the strength of Wuhun Palace, everyone is afraid. If they can do it without breaking up, they must not break up. Everyone is a peace-loving person and hates war.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for saving me. I will keep Xue Qinghe in my heart, and I will surely be richly rewarded in the future."

Xue Qinghe bowed sincerely and looked at Emperor Xue Ye. Seeing that he was also recovering quickly, a strange color flashed in his eyes.

"Your Majesty is fine, that's great."

Everyone was extremely excited when they saw Emperor Xue Ye opening his eyes, sitting up from the blanket, and seemed to have returned to the state before he was poisoned.

"Don't be too happy too early. His Majesty is already old and in his final years. He cannot withstand any harm. If he stays safe and takes good care of himself, he can live for a few more years. However, he was too deeply poisoned today because of the obstruction of Marshal Gelong. The delay in treatment and the poison entering the internal organs have exhausted His Majesty's last vitality. At this time, it is just a return to the light."

A pot of cold ashes poured down on Duotou, and everyone was stunned.

Wang Shenmeng continued: "Your Majesty, if you have any last words, please explain them quickly. Time is running out."
