The princess was assassinated, her life hanging in the balance.
Although the palace tacitly allowed the strife among the royal heirs, when accidents like this occurred, the power holders still had to put on a so-called "face project" to the outside world, to avoid the public from thinking that the royal family was ruthless and the court was in turmoil.
Even though these were all accepted facts.
In other words, if Princess Li Yunyi really died in the palace, everything would be fine. The princess would close her cultivation for thousands of years, and no one would even notice the absence of a royal heir.
But the princess escaped!
Before the final outcome, the power ministers would not favor anyone.
They burned all those who might have poisoned the princess according to the law. The head of the law department personally took action, captured the late-stage national town assassin responsible for the assassination plan, abolished his cultivation, and announced on the same day that he would be executed at noon three days later.
The assassin organization that had been cultivated for thousands of years was completely uprooted. A prince who planned this assassination lost a great support and would inevitably fall behind in the future power struggle.
This is the price of doing bad things without success and being discovered, and it is also a tacit understanding between the royal family and several royal heirs with the strength to compete for the position of the crown prince.
You can make trouble at will, but don't get caught.
Once caught, we will follow the rules, and all the forces involved will be settled, except for yourself.
A subordinate of the late-stage national town is about to pay the price of life, which is also a very painful thing for the royal heir. After all, in the case where the strong of the realm of the world are neutral like the emperor, the late-stage national town is already the strongest support they can attract.
As for the peak of the national town...
That kind of existence that is only one step away from the world, the royal heirs with the strength of the national town can't hold it. Even if they can offer chips that can move such strong people, they dare not easily recruit.
——Imperial City · Vegetable Market——
This is a street adjacent to Chang Le Street, dedicated to slaughtering and the business of meat. The street is filled with a nauseating strong smell of blood.
As for the goods on the chopping board, most of them are demon beasts.
Even the demon race.
Only when the spirit of the beast reaches a certain level can it be called the demon race.
The human race and the demon race are allies in a certain sense, but for some reasons that are not convenient to reveal. The relationship between Zun Tian Immortal Dynasty and the demon race is not good, and it has reached the point of water and fire.
For example, tourists in the city.
The ghost race and the demon race can enter the Fuyun City as tourists.
But if the demon race wants to come in, it can only be through the slaughterhouse!
This kind of relationship has even continued to the subordinate institution of Zun Tian Immortal Dynasty - Zun Tian Shen Dynasty.
After all, the responsibility of Zun Tian Shen Dynasty in the immortal domain is to fight against the demon race of the Zangxing Mountain Range. The small Zun Tian Shen Emperor, who is only in the realm of the emperor, has even been rubbed on the ground by the black dragon demon emperor.
On both sides of the long street filled with blood, there is a row of large iron cages made of Xuan iron.
All kinds of demon beasts are locked in the cages.
Most of them are male, and the females who can be seen are basically sent to another street specializing in selling slaves.
Yes, Zun Tian Immortal Dynasty still retains the slave society!
Hula...
The thick iron chain dragged on the ground, and the demon beasts roared in the cage, looking at the team composed of the law enforcement team of the palace law department.
In the center of the team is the late-stage national town assassin.
He is covered with explosive muscles all over his body, with a neat knife scar on his face. He should be a domineering and fierce knife guest, but his hands and feet are wearing special shackles, and he can only crawl slowly on the street.
Escape?
Don't be silly, it's impossible to escape.
It's better to be calm, rather than struggling desperately, being caught and tortured to death, and then becoming a good man in a few years!
On both sides of the long street, some mortals with low cultivation are constantly throwing trash at the knife guest.
Most of them are some broken bones, rotten vegetables, or stinky eggs.
If these people are said to be venting anger for the princess, that's all a lie.
All the people on this long street have only heard the name of the sixth princess, and they know there is such a person, but they have never seen her. How could they feel sad or angry because the princess is unknown?
They are just here to make a fuss.
By the way, they take the opportunity to release the pressure generated by life in broad daylight.
Such an opportunity to vent dark emotions against a stranger at will is not much, and there is no need to worry about retaliation or legal disputes afterwards.
Su Huai is also one of the many "funny people".
He doesn't have any pressure to vent, and the reason why he came to this adjacent street is to see the execution that involves the future direction of the immortal dynasty.
With him, there is a woman with a delicate appearance.
This is Lin Wanxi, who is still trying to win the heart of Su Huai. She changed her face to a score of about eighty points, and followed Su Huai with a smile.
And she is a familiar person from the start, more shameless than Su Huai.
"Mr. Su, what do you think, who is stronger between you and the assassin?"
"He is strong. I am very poor, and I can't even take a move from him."
"Is that so..."
"May I ask which law Mr. Su has realized?"
"The death system! My power is called the summoning of the undead, very weak."
"Is Mr. Su interested in joining..."
"No interest, no joining, don't ask, ask is that in our Origin Association, the Zun Tian Immortal Dynasty is just an ant, you are not worthy of me."
Lin Wanxi smiled but didn't speak, and she only believed half of what Su Huai said.
The sense of threat this person gave her was too strong. If she could subdue this person, it would be of great benefit to her and the spirit race behind her.
The spirit race diviner once said: The dispute of the troubled times will arise.
In the coming troubled times, every demon may become the next god, and the more such demons the spirit race has, the greater the chance of winning in the next war!
As for Su Huai's human identity...
According to the current situation of the human race, this era is destined not to have the qualification to join the final contest. Unless the human race can produce one or two demons that are even more against the sky than the former emperor.
But how could that be possible?
Even her own, and the talent of the Origin Association member in front of her, are absolutely not up to the level of the five great strong people of the last era.
As for Su Huai's Origin Association identity...
No matter how strong the Origin Association is, it is just a loose alliance.
It can't support Su Huai indefinitely.
But the spirit race can!
As long as Su Huai is willing, the spirit race can even help him become the emperor of the human race in this era!
And what's more interesting is that Lin Wanxi found a little secret of Su Huai.
The silver snake-shaped ring on his finger...
Tsk tsk!
Lin Wanxi is very smart, she knows what to say and what not to say, so she didn't use this secret as a handle to coerce Su Huai to join them.
This woman makes Su Huai feel very troublesome.
A piece of genuine cowhide glue, can't shake it off, he even had the idea of pitting her to the city of Noxus, and then re-enacting a set of services with Cao Yi.
It's a pity that it can't be killed.
Such a level of talent, even in the spirit race, the status will not be too low.
If Su Huai dares to move her, he may be chased and killed by several domain gods in the next second.
He is not a son of heaven, and he will really die if he is killed.
Even the "cycle" of the little snake can't protect his life.
On the other hand, less than two hundred meters away from Su Huai and the two, the real son of heaven is leading a plain-faced girl looking at the law department team leading to the execution ground.
"Is that really the assassin who assassinated you?"
Li Sidao frowned and looked at the silent knife guest in the team.
She is a sword repairer, and her perception of artistic conception is much higher than that of ordinary people. At the first glance of the knife guest, Li Sidao felt the sharp and domineering knife meaning on the other side.
Li Yunyi stood beside her, silent
, looking as usual, as if she was not surprised by this result.
From the moment the other party made a move, they were destined to only live one.
"That person, he is very strong."
"Much stronger than the average late-stage national town, even facing the peak of the national town opponent, he can at least ensure that he will not be defeated within a hundred moves."
Li Sidao nodded after listening.
The knife wounds on Li Yunyi's body all carried a strong smell of death, and they did not seem to be injured by the real sharp weapon. They were said to be knife wounds, but in fact, they were more like being torn by the power of authority.
"It's a pity that no matter how strong he is, he will definitely die here today."
