Chapter 4449: Stop pretending

Inside the hall, the atmosphere was a bit weird. Everyone looked at each other and dared not speak.

The Third Prince's face was slightly gloomy. He looked at Leng Qiu beside him and said, "Leng Hou."

"Yes, Third Prince." Leng Qiu hurriedly replied, not daring to look up.

"What gifts have you prepared to present?" The Third Prince said lightly.

Leng Qiu raised his head and took out the gifts he had prepared in advance, which were a pile of top-grade elixirs. He said loudly, "This is a special fire-attributed elixir made by the Xuandan Sect. It is most suitable for practicing fire-attributed exercises. I specially present it to the Third Prince. Please accept it."

After speaking, he knelt on one knee, lowering his eyebrows and looking pleasing to the eye, expressing absolute obedience and loyalty.

"Please accept it, Your Highness."

"Please accept it, Your Highness."

When Fan Ren and Zheng Yuanwu saw it, they also knelt on one knee and presented the gifts with both hands.

Undoubtedly, the three of them had already lowered their attitude enough. They presented such precious treasures to show their loyalty. They also knelt down to present gifts to the Third Prince at the banquet in front of a group of prominent figures in the border town, which was a bit like forcing the emperor to abdicate.

In order to please the Third Prince, the three of them racked their brains and used all means. The open gift was even more appropriate.

In their opinion, as long as the Third Prince accepted the gift, it would be equivalent to tacitly agreeing that their past affairs would be written off and forgiven.

And this is a tacit understanding from top to bottom, a rule and a way of playing.

As the Third Prince of the Wushuang Divine Dynasty, he was naturally familiar with it.

Under the watchful eyes of the public, everyone was watching the Third Prince's next move. If he didn't accept it, he would be embarrassed.

"Haha, it's really interesting. Let's see how the Third Prince will deal with it."

Chen Xiao watched this scene leisurely and watched coldly. He would not intervene in such matters. It had nothing to do with him.

However, sitting aside and watching the show is quite interesting.

The third prince stood up at this time, and his cold eyes swept through the hall, seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, which were very exciting and complicated. Some were surprised, some looked enlightened, some were calm and frank, as if they had expected all this, and some were nervous and uneasy.

"Hehe, you three old guys have given me a difficult problem."

The third prince said coldly.

Today, the three people openly presented treasures, and it was a top-grade treasure like Xuantian Lingbao, which was difficult to refuse.

If he accepted these three things, it would be equivalent to accepting the loyalty of the three people. Once it was spread out, the many evil and dirty things that the three people had committed would be counted on his head, and the world would mistakenly think that it was the third prince who instructed him.

Such a big black pot is not easy to take.

But if he did not accept this treasure today, it would be equivalent to tearing his face and turning against each other in public, which would also be very disadvantageous for the third prince's future actions.

It seems that the three of them have put the Third Prince on the spot and forced him to the edge of the wall, forcing him to express his position.

Their hearts are worthy of death.

"Please accept it, Your Highness."

The three of them spoke at the same time, without any intention of relaxing.

Facing the pressure of the three of them, and the countless eyes staring at him in the huge border town, the Third Prince had a cold face and was not panicked at all.

The three of them looked up carefully, and when they saw the look of the Third Prince, their hearts skipped a beat, and they immediately had an uneasy premonition.

"You want me to accept it? Haha, it's not difficult. Today, in front of so many big names, we have made it clear. It's good for both sides, isn't it?"

At this moment, the temperament of the Third Prince changed, as if he had completely changed into a different person.

Just now, he was so popular that he accepted everyone who came, and he was completely a cynical second-generation immortal. Although everyone respected him as the Third Prince, they could not help but feel a little contempt and disdain in their hearts.

In fact, no one would care about the Third Prince himself. They would only regard him as the son of the Divine Emperor, with a noble birth and a high status, but he would just be reincarnated.

Anyone in this position would not be bad. His cultivation was not obtained by himself, but by the blessing of the Divine Emperor.

In their hearts, many Tribulation Immortals present would have some contempt for the Third Prince's dissolute and frivolous behavior.

But these words would only be hidden in their hearts and would not really be expressed.

But now that the three marquises have already revealed their cards and want to drag the Third Prince into the water and get on this pirate ship together, he simply stopped pretending.

If he continued to pretend, he might really be looked down upon by others.

Facing the questioning of the Third Prince, Fan Ren was startled, his face instantly turned cold, and he asked back, "What do you mean by that, Third Prince? I don't quite understand?"

"Third Prince, the three of us have been loyal to His Majesty the Divine Emperor for generations, guarding the border for the royal family. We have no merits but have worked hard. Why do you say that?"

Zheng Yuanwu said with a look of grief, quite indignant.

"Your Highness, what do you mean by that?" Leng Qiu also echoed and questioned.

In an instant, the three of them changed their faces, and the atmosphere in the hall became extremely stiff.

The banquet, which was originally a celebration, also had a bit of solemnity and was extremely cold. You could hear a pin drop in the venue. Everyone held their breath and kept silent, as if they were afraid to speak loudly. Except for the sound of Chen Xiao drinking, there was no other sound.

The Third Prince paused and glanced at Chen Xiao, who was sitting aside and drinking with relish. It seemed that everything had nothing to do with him and he was at ease.

Suddenly, the Third Prince smiled with relief. Yes, with Chen Xiao here to protect him, what else does he have to fear? Just let go and do it.

After thinking this through, the Third Prince turned his head and looked at Ying San, and asked, "Is everything ready?"

Ying San's face was tense, like a thousand years of ice, and said, "Your Highness, if we act according to the plan, it should be time."

"That's good." The Third Prince nodded, very satisfied.

"This..."

Such a conversation made Fan Ren and the other two startled. They had no idea what was going on and were confused.

Although they were uneasy, it had come to this critical juncture and there was no room for maneuver.

"Your Highness, our loyalty is as good as the sun and the moon. I hope that Your Highness will accept this gift. In the future, our three major families are willing to serve Your Highness as cows and horses, and be driven by you without any complaints."

Fan Ren continued to plead earnestly.

"Third Prince, please accept the treasure." Zheng Yuanwu echoed.

"Third Prince, as long as you accept this treasure, our three major families will never have second thoughts about you in the future."

Leng Qiu followed.

Such a scene made many cultivators in the hall stunned, confused, and really confused.

The third prince shook his head and said, "No hurry, you take the treasure first, and it won't be too late to talk about this after the matter is settled."

"This..."

After hearing this, Fan Ren was completely stunned, and the feeling of uneasiness became stronger. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something.
