Jiang Yi was stunned when he heard Xia Houyue said that Ye Fan was making a fool of himself, and couldn't help but ask: "Master Xia Hou, how do you say this?"
Xia Houyue rolled his eyes and said calmly: "This is an obvious thing. If Ye Fan's rune skills are really so strong, why would he choose the beast control system instead of the rune system? The status of the rune system is much higher than that of the beast control system. . Regarding this matter, I have a more bold idea. Could it be that Miss Chai Lanyi and the ten Fu Kings worked together to support Ye Fan and help him become a sensation in the imperial city? They were the only ones standing that day. Watching Ye Fan write the runes at close range on the balcony, others stood far away and could not see clearly enough. If they said that Ye Fan wrote the peerless runes, others in the distance would naturally believe it. I think The possibility is very high!"
Jiang Yi was stunned for a while, never thinking about this incredible possibility. How could the Chai family help Ye Fan do dragging?
He immediately shook his head and said: "Master Xiahou, there is Princess Ji Rouyu on the stage. Is she also a supporter? The Chai family cannot invite Princess Ji Rouyu!"
Xia Houyue said calmly: "Although the princess is close, she doesn't understand runes. If Chai Lanyi and the other rune kings want to hide it from her, they can still do it with their hands and feet."
"However, the aura of those two runes are clearly peerless fourth-level runes! Even people standing far away can feel the powerful aura of these two peerless runes! This can't be fake!"
Jiang Yi was stunned and still couldn't understand.
Xia Houyue smiled and said: "This is even simpler. There is a Talisman Emperor Chai Jingdong in the Chai Mansion family. He should have written several truly peerless fourth-level runes over the years, and he can definitely lend it to Ye Fan. This This created the conditions for Ye Fan to 'write' the truly peerless runes. As long as the Chai Mansion came forward, it was enough to convince ten senior Talisman Kings to be entrusted to Ye Fan and cover him to secretly swap the runes he wrote and replace them with a real rune. The peerless runes. From all aspects, only the Chai Mansion had the energy to do this. Moreover, after Ye Fan returned to the Beast Emperor's Pavilion Villa, he refused to show anyone the two peerless runes and would never sell the runes. This further proves that these two peerless runes have actually been returned to Fu Emperor Chai Jingdong privately. Ye Fan did not have the runes in his hand and could not write them out, so naturally there was no way to prove to others that they were written by him. The whole thing was just a conspiracy. It's a cryptic scam, deliberately trying to deceive people."
Xia Houyue explained the matter from beginning to end, and the explanation was perfect, which made him deeply satisfied.
Jiang Yi looked shocked and couldn't believe it: "The Chai family spent so much money to do this, what's the benefit?"
Xia Houyue thought for a moment and said coldly: "Hey, create a legendary image for Ye Fan and make him a unique Talisman King in Zixuan Imperial City. Everyone will be in awe and even dare not be his enemy. . Humph, as for what Chai Mansion is planning, is there any private conspiracy transaction with Ye Fan to prepare for the upcoming battle? Only the people in Chai Mansion know this. There are billions of dollars involved. Shi. There is nothing that Chai Mansion dare not do!"
The Mammoth franchise has unimaginable huge profits. The Zixuan Royal Family and several first-rate Martial Saint families all have huge interests in it.
Xia Houyue even suspected that the Chaifu family had another deal with Ye Fan privately, and secretly tried to find ways to help Ye Fan.
Jiang Yi and Xia Houyue couldn't help but look at Chai Song. Chai Song was from the Chai family and might have some inside information.
Jiang Yi and Xia Houyue discussed the Chai family in front of Chai Song, which made Chai Song a little unhappy.
However, Chai Song was not annoyed, and just said calmly: "Don't look at me, you two. Although I am a member of the Chai family, I am only a middle-level direct disciple, and I am not qualified to participate in the high-level secrets of the Chai family. Don't talk about Chai Song. Whether you have done this or not, even if you have done it, I have no idea. However, without any evidence, Mr. Xiahou should not make assumptions out of thin air, so as not to attract slander!"
Although Chai Song is a descendant of the Chai family, her status cannot be compared with that of Chai Lanyi, the direct daughter of the head of the Chai family. He is only an executor, not a decision-maker, in many matters of the Chai family.
Xia Houyue couldn't help but frown.
What he just said was just a guess, and he wanted to see Chai Song's reaction. But even Chai Song was completely unaware of it, so it seemed that there was something fishy about this matter.
Xia Houyue shook his head and said: "Forget it, let's not talk about it. We are holding a banquet here today. In addition to the two of us, we also invited some people to come. I guess they will be here soon. Let's eat and talk in a while."
"who?"
Jiang Yi is in a bad mood now and is not too interested in today's party.
"The fifteen captains of the early Martial King of the Zixuan Royal Guards are also the candidates who will fight Ye Fan in the Void Arena this time!"
Xia Houyue said with a smile.
"Fifteen squad leaders?"
"This is a bit too... bullying!"
Jiang Yi and Chai Song were both surprised and looked shocked.
The Martial Kings of the Royal City Guards are certainly not ordinary people. Most of them are descendants of wealthy families in the Zixuan Imperial City. They have won the trust of the royal family and were selected as the Imperial City Guards.
And every squad captain of the Royal City Guards is undoubtedly the best among them. Each squad captain has the strength to surpass the Martial King of the same level.
It can be said that a squad leader in the early stage of King Wu is fully capable of defeating two or three other imperial guards in the early stage of King Wu.
Jiang Yi only knew that he would use the power of the Royal Guards, but he did not expect that the Guards would actually send out a group of uniform captains.
Normally, dispatching more than ten guardsmen to King Wu would be "somewhat bullying". This time, dispatching more than ten guardsmen captains would beat Ye Fan to the point of being unable to stand up.
Jiang Yi was shocked. He had some connections in the Imperial Household Department, but he had no influence among the Ministry of War and the Forbidden Army.
However, the Xiahou family has extremely wide connections in the Ministry of War, and even the Martial Kings in the Royal Guards are familiar with them.
You must know that once selected into the Imperial Guard, these Imperial Guards will only be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor and are more taboo about getting close to the children of other aristocratic families. Even the Jiang family, Chai family, etc. would not make friends with people in the Imperial Guard.
However, the Xiahou family has a deep connection with the Ministry of War. Xiahou Yue once served in the Imperial Guard. He was very familiar with the King Wu of these Imperial Guards, so he was not taboo about it.
Seeing Jiang Yi and Chai Song being so surprised, Xia Houyue couldn't help but smile proudly: "When originally selecting people, the court planned to randomly select more than ten imperial guards from the early stage of King Wu to test Ye Fan and the Mammoth Beast King. strength. However, I am familiar with the general of the Imperial Guard and said hello to him. So this time the Imperial Guard dispatched a group of the strongest masters in the early stages of the Martial King Realm!"
Just as they were chatting, there was a steady sound of footsteps outside the luxurious box of Ruyi Pavilion.
Soon, fifteen young and middle-aged martial kings with heroic looks and various costumes in brocade robes came outside the box. The eyes of these martial kings were shining brightly, their expressions were either fierce and fierce, or they were arrogant and unrestrained. Their bodies were full of vitality. They were obviously the elite of the Royal Guards who had experienced hundreds of battles.
"Brother Xiahou!"
The martial kings entered the box and greeted Xia Houyue, the senior of the Imperial Guard.
"Haha, Brother Changsun Dehao, Brother Ba Zongguang, Brother Ge Yingnan, all of you are here to show your respects. Please take a seat! These two are Lord Jiang Yijiang, the left minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and Lord Chai Songchai, the minister of the Ministry of Rites! Both of them are following This battle is related, so let's talk casually without being formal."
Xia Houyue laughed.
He introduced Jiang Yi, Chai Song and others.
This battle in the Void Arena was a duel between this group of guards, King Wu, and Ye Fan.
Everyone started chatting.
Jiang Yi once again mentioned the matter of Ye Fan as the Peerless Talisman King with deep concern, and wanted to see the attitude of the captains of the Imperial Guard.
The Martial King's Imperial Guards had already known this news, but they didn't take it seriously and didn't really believe it.
They are all proud and powerful soldiers of the Royal Guards. They are the best ones selected from the many Martial King Guards in the Imperial City. They are very powerful in martial arts. How can they take a Fu King in their eyes.
"Whether he is a peerless Talisman King or not, what we are competing with him is martial arts, not runes. In martial arts, all we rely on is our true ability in actual combat, and we cannot fake it at all. In this competition, We must knock him down to the bottom and reveal his true colors!"
Changsun Dehao sneered.
"Any one of us in the imperial city is one of the most powerful warriors in the early stage of the King of Martial Arts. Even in a one-on-one fight, he can handle Ye Fan alone. The reason why ten people are used is entirely to deal with the mammoth beast king, the legendary beast king. The first terrestrial orc tribe in the wilderness!"
"Even if Ye Fan is a peerless martial arts king, we will beat him to the ground and beg for mercy!"
"That's right, after half a month! Everything will be revealed naturally. Why should Mr. Jiang worry? Just wait and see the excitement."
None of them, the pride of the Imperial Guard, is easy to deal with.
What's more, they are a whole team, with more than ten times the number of people, all squad leader-level Martial King figures going into battle.
Jiang Yi felt a little more confident when he saw that the Imperial Guards and Martial Kings were full of confidence. In any case, the force of these captains of King Wu's Imperial Guard is definitely strong enough.
"By the way, the Shenwu Star Tower will open tomorrow, will you go?"
"Of course I want to go. Every time the Shenwu Star Tower is opened, it is the best actual battlefield, which can greatly improve your strength. Don't let the battle in the Void Arena delay this trial of the Shenwu Star Tower!"
"Haha, I have recently become a high-grade swordsman. Look at my performance!"
"Then let's see the power of Brother Changsun's sword technique!"
All the Imperial Guards and Martial Kings laughed.
Xia Houyue smiled at Jiang Yi and said, "I wonder if Mr. Jiang is free tomorrow? Go and have a look at the Shenwu Star Tower?"
"Okay, I'll go cheer for you all!"
Jiang Yi smiled.
He also wanted to see if the Royal Guards squad captains were good enough.
