Chapter 7 - Summoning of the Crown Prince
It was night.
Crown Prince's Palace.
Not only did he have ten great king level experts as his protectors, his family had a thousand customers, and all of them were middle-level warriors and above. He had been in the position of crown prince for more than ten years, and not only did he marry the head of the ten great families, he had also won the favor and respect of the current emperor. If it were not for the ten thousand year foundation rule of the royal Long family, Long Zhan would have long been the next candidate to become the new emperor. Long Zhan had been in the throne for more than ten years, not only did he get along with the various major powers, he also had an extremely low profile.
At this time, in the study room of the crown prince's mansion, Long Zhan was sitting at a desk with a black-robed guard reporting information about the capital. He would occasionally nod his head, and the battle for the throne would soon begin, as all of Long Zhan's intelligence agencies were monitoring the activities in the capital, so he had to hold onto all the information regarding the various major powers, especially the information on all the princes. Long Zhan agreed with and supported the actions of the emperor in allowing princes who had lost their competition to leave the capital. When he heard this subordinate report about the situation of Prince Nineteen Long Xuan shopping and King Xuan's Mansion, Long Zhan's brows knitted together. He glanced at the black-robed guard, and then said coldly: "Go to King Xuan's Mansion, and ask Prince Nineteen Long Xuan to come see me right now."
The black clad guard was stunned for a moment, but immediately nodded, "This servant accepts the order." After saying that, he turned around and left the study.
Long Zhan had always been indifferent to him, and had even been extremely strict with him at times. But Long Zhan himself knew that he had always done this for his own good, after all, he was currently only the crown prince, and was not even the emperor yet. If he and the black-robed guard left together, it would be a huge disaster for him if they were to lose the competition, and over ten years, he had mocked and ridiculed the other person in front of everyone. In the past, he was still too young, so many things could not be told to him. Now that he had matured and was going back to his feudal fiefdom, it would probably be years before he would see him again.
Although had always mocked and ridiculed him, he had also never revealed any kind of malice towards him. As a person with two lives, Long Xuan knew that the crown prince had no ill intentions towards him, as Long Xuan himself knew that he and did not have any interests in each other, and that the two of them were born from the same family, and that Long Zhan hated him to the bone. Thus, Long Xuan immediately led Long Feng and Long Yi, under the lead of the black-robed bodyguards, towards the crown prince's residence.
There were too many experts in the Crown Prince's Palace, so when the three of them arrived at the Crown Prince's Palace, Long Zhan had already ordered people to prepare a table of food and wine. Long Xuan called him Big Brother, Long Zhan nodded his head and let him sit at the opposite side, then he sized up the two people, Long Zhan was a 9 star Dou Ling and he already knew that the two were Warrior Aura Cultivators, but the two of them kept their auras, he did not know what kind of cultivation they were, he did not think that his good-for-nothing little brother could call a warrior to follow him.
After Long Zhan glanced at Long Xuan, he took a cup of wine and said to Long Xuan: "This brother will leave the capital tomorrow. This brother will send you off with a cup of water and wine tonight. Hearing that, Long Xuan also took the wine cup on the table in front of him and said to Long Zhan: "Thank you, royal brother." After the two of them drank a cup together, Long Zhan stared at Long Xuan and said, "For the past ten years, I, your brother, have never been able to take care of you, and tonight, I will drink a cup of wine with you." Without waiting for Long Xuan to speak, he poured a cup for himself, immediately downed the third cup, and said softly: "I am preparing to send two guards for me, but I will protect my brother's safety when he arrives at your feudal fiefdom. At that time, if I win the throne for my brother, I will return to the capital, and I will protect my brother's fortune. This goblet of wine shall be shared between us two brothers. " Long Xuan immediately filled his cup and the two shared a cup.
In his previous life, he did not have any brothers, and had never felt the need to find any brothers. In this life, he had many brothers and sisters, but only Long Zhan was born into the imperial family, so he could not feel any sense of kinship with Long Zhan, and what Long Zhan had said at this time caused Long Xuan to feel a sense of warmth in his heart. He did not expect that Long Zhan had a cold face, and had always been protecting himself, so his eyes reddened slightly.
Although he was the noble crown prince, it was still not easy to recruit warriors for the warrior power. Although he was known as the gatekeeper of the gatehouse with a thousand customers outside, but not even ten percent of them were actually recruited by Long Zhan, other than the majority that the Zhang Family sent, the rest were all sent by the Queen's family. He had only recruited around ten people, and the pride of a warrior power was not something the imperial family could drive.
Seeing such a Crown Prince Long Zhan, Long Xuan could not help but ask: "How much confidence does royal brother have this time?"
Long Zhan shook his head and said, "I think I have only seven levels of confidence this time, the top ten families have all sent experts to support their princes, and the current three royal brothers already have three top families supporting him, there are already ten king level masters, the number of mid level warriors is equal to mine, there are already one thousand and two hundred low level warriors, and the number has already surpassed the number of brothers, especially the nine star Dou Ling warriors who are already numbered amongst the ten, so brother's pressure is getting heavier this time."
"Oh," Long Xuan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard this. He didn't think that Long Zhan's strength was actually inferior to the Third Prince's.
Hearing that, Long Zhan could not help but ask: "What gift?"
After Long Xuan heard Long Zhan's words, he shouted to Long Feng who was behind him, "Long Feng, come over here."
Long Feng walked over with large strides, and bowed towards Long Xuan: "This servant greets Sir."
Long Xuan nodded to him, then pointed at Dragon Wind Moon Long Zhan and said: "This person is one of my servants, I will gift him to royal brother. Let him contribute a little in this major event."
Hearing that, Long Zhan could not help but look at Long Feng in shock, he had not seen Long Feng's cultivation, and looked at Long Xuan: "What is his cultivation level?"
Long Xuan nodded at Long Feng, who immediately released his battle qi cultivation, causing a powerful wave of battle qi to fly towards Long Zhan, who could not help but exclaim: "A king level warrior?"
Long Feng immediately retracted his imposing manner and stood behind Long Xuan, who was still staring at Long Feng in shock. Long Xuan laughed twice, and only then did Long Zhan regain his senses, and immediately stared at Long Xuan: "Are you really giving me this brother?"
Long Xuan chuckled: "Of course I'm giving it to royal brother, this person's loyalty is definitely not a problem, but royal brother must give me some compensation."
Long Zhan listened and nodded: "If brother has any conditions, just say it."
Long Xuan chuckled: "I don't have any huge goals, I just hope that royal brother can take a few treasures to exchange for it."
After Long Zhan heard it, he thought for a moment and said: "Alright, I have a lot of treasures in my hands, but there is only one of the fifth rank, five of the fourth rank, and ten of the third rank.
Hearing that, Long Xuan laughed: "Alright, it's a promise then. I will leave him to you today."
Long Zhan nodded his head: "Okay, then brother will have someone deliver the things to your house tonight."
Long Xuan laughed and said: "Alright, junior pays his respects to royal brother. I wish royal brother victory and a chance to get the throne." They toasted again. Long Xuan then brought Long Yi and left the crown prince's residence. Long Zhan also brought Long Feng to the study room.
