Too much fruit

Chapter 796 Then Kill Him

"Tu Bo is speechless. Do you want to use force?" Jiang Sikong treated people with sincerity and spoke in a friendly manner.

Regarding anything related to rhetoric, basically the more dominant you are, the better your expression will be and the more polite you will be.

Jiang Li was naturally no exception.

But Jiang Li’s politeness... could only make Tu Bo’s eyes flash with fire and murderous intent.

When the murderous intent emerged, the whole world seemed to be isolated. The dark yin energy and the sky-high primordial qi each occupied the two poles, forming another world. The huge shadow of the underworld god and the Tai Chi faced each other in the air.

In an instant, the wailing sounds of thousands of ghosts turned into bloody hands. Tai Chi started to operate, giving birth to all things. The two collided, and the heaven and earth shook.

Everything collapsed and shattered in an instant. The dark yin energy and the primordial qi that reached the sky all disappeared. The scene in the Ziwei Palace reappeared, and the small world before seemed like an illusion.

No one else in the hall was aware of the collision, and there was not even any damage inside the Ziwei Hall. Only the eldest princess and King You noticed the fleeting shocking scene.

Tu Bo's eyes had completely turned into dark red, with cracks like lava appearing in his eyes, and one of his eyes was opening on his forehead.

He stared at Jiang Li and suddenly said, "This is a serious matter. We will discuss it another day."

After saying this, Tu Bo simply waved his sleeves and walked out of the hall.

Upon seeing this, King You's face changed drastically, and he followed Tubo out. The officials on his side also withdrew one after another, without waiting for the eldest princess sitting on the throne to announce the end of the court meeting.

······
······
Tu Bo came out of the Ziwei Hall, and the third eye on his forehead finally opened. The three eyes focused, and a deep crack was torn in front of him, allowing him to walk straight in.

King You followed in.

The two of them passed through the darkness and yin energy, and a faint light appeared before their eyes. When they stepped on solid ground again, they had returned to the high platform where they had observed the capital of the gods before.

Behind them, the huge bronze mirror still reflected the scene of the imperial city.

“Tu Bo, what are you doing…” King You looked at Tu Bo.

Black lines appeared on Tu Bo's face, and a pair of long curved horns emerged on his head. He opened his mouth and exhaled a breath of Yin Qi, saying grimly: "There is another third-rank person in the imperial city, Yinglong. Gongsun Yuliu, the junior, has also been promoted. Just now, I sensed the emergence of dragon energy underground, the fluctuation of Yin Qi underground, and a cave is moving in the earth veins."

"Dongtian?" King You's expression changed. "Baoji Dongtian?"

The cave heaven that Ji Jiji used for cultivation later became the battlefield between Ji Jiji and the incarnation of Cang Tian. The cave heaven was almost completely destroyed and sealed into the earth veins by Tian Xuan and Yu Shi Yuanjun. Why are they opening it up now?
The first thing King You thought of was naturally to deal with Tu Bo.

Using the cave to restrict Tu Bo, although the cave alone cannot trap Tu Bo, a third-grade master, but if there is a third-grade master like Yu Shi Yuanjun in charge, it may be possible to seal off the space and prevent Tu Bo from escaping into the underworld when necessary.

Baoji Cave Heaven, as well as Yu Shi Yuanjun who was promoted to the third rank, plus Jiang Li, it was possible to kill Tu Bo.

Tu Bo was certainly becoming more and more conceited, but he was not so determined as to charge in after discovering the crisis, so he retreated and left suddenly.

“Now that I think about it, the sudden departure of the Imperial Academy Priest was also Jiang Li’s doing. He wanted to deal with me,” Tu Bo said grimly, “He wanted to force me to take action, and then directly trap me in the Treasure Extreme Cave Heaven and destroy the foundation of my Ji family.”

"The Jiang family kid is really born with rebellious nature and wolfish ambitions. If I retreat this time, I have already lost a good opportunity. We will discuss it again next time. If this kid uses the same old tricks again, I may still not be able to deal with him."

Tu Bo is not afraid of Jiang Li alone, but if there is another Yu Shi Yuan Jun who has been promoted to the third-grade Yinglong, Tu Bo will have to be cautious.

As a figure of the Ji family's old monster level, Tu Bo certainly knows the power of Yinglong Dao Fruit. Even though he has just been promoted, Yu Shi Yuanjun already possesses impressive strength and can occupy a place among the three grades.

Yinglong is a war dragon and dragon god. In his heyday, he once fought against Chiyou together with Huangdi.

In Tu Bo's opinion, neither Yu Shi Yuan Jun nor Jiang Li could match him, but if the two of them joined forces, that might not be the case.

Thinking of this, Tu Bo's eyes flashed with strangeness, and he whispered, "Did you expect this, Ji Jiji? Did you expect that I would take the initiative to seek cooperation with you?"

Recalling the intentional cooperation of the Emperor of Heaven before, Tu Bo began to feel suspicious.

······
······
On the other side, Jiang Li watched the Second Prince and his faction officials leave in a hurry and did not speak out to stop them.

"Go, spread the news of today's court dispute, and let the people of the Divine Capital know about the great victory on the front line." Jiang Li said, waving his sleeves lightly.

Yang Yan received the order immediately and tactfully left the hall with the other officials without staying any longer.

Afterwards, Jiang Li and the eldest princess walked out of the back hall and headed towards the north gate.

On the way, Jiang Li asked, "Sister-in-law, have you made up your mind and don't want to continue to be in power?"

"What's the use of power? I'll just be abandoned by others and feel sorry for myself like a grudge woman," the princess laughed at herself, no longer as expressionless as before, "I only want to be promoted to the third rank as soon as possible, the rest is not important."

"Today I saw you deal with Tu Bo with ease, so I can now hand over the government to you with confidence."

"Power is just an accessory to strength for me. Even if I become the regent, I still need your help in the end," Jiang Li said helplessly, "and if you want to be promoted, Suzaku is not the only way."

"The one that suits you is the best. I don't like to settle for anything less." The princess said resolutely. The Suzaku Dao Fruit was indeed the most suitable Dao Fruit for her. She had practiced the Suzaku Seal for many years, and it was quite compatible with the Dao Fruit. As long as she could be promoted, her strength would improve by leaps and bounds.

Moreover, only the most suitable Tao fruit will have a longer-term future.

"Then let's do as my sister-in-law says." Jiang Li nodded.

"My promotion ceremony has already begun. After I help you take down Tu Bo, I will go on the final leg."

As the princess spoke, she recalled her previous discovery and said jokingly, "When Yuanjun fought the King of Shu before, he displayed Jiang's innate Qi. You, Jiang Li, are so generous. I wonder if I can comprehend your Jiang's magical power?"

Jiang Li: "······"

"Sister-in-law, if you want to comprehend, then of course there is no problem, but I cannot guarantee whether there will be any results."

He coughed lightly and decisively changed the subject, saying, "As for Tu Bo, I actually have no intention of taking him down. Tu Bo is an old monster who has been working in the underworld for many years. It is not easy to take him down. If he had really made a move before, it would have been possible to take him down. Unfortunately, although Tu Bo's character has changed, he has not yet lost his mind."

His mind has not yet reached the point of losing his mind, and his strength has increased because of the Yin Fu Jing. If he had noticed something wrong before, he would have withdrawn decisively, otherwise Jiang Li would not mind using Tu Bo as a scapegoat.

"My real target is him."

As they were talking, the two had already arrived at the north gate and passed through the divine light of the altar. The extremely dazzling golden light illuminated a solid figure.

Compared to yesterday, the light emitted from the Shennong Ding became brighter, and majestic aura burst out along with the golden light, forming a semicircle like the sun, emerging from the mouth of the cauldron.

Next to the Shennong Ding, the emperor's figure appeared particularly eye-catching under the golden light.

The real target is the emperor.

"The emperor's seal is no longer safe. The Great Master has spread the method to unlock it. The eldest prince has it, and I have it too." Jiang Li said slowly.

The eldest princess's eyes were slightly narrowed with a cold light in them.

Obviously, she was not in a good mood after hearing the news.

"So, what are your plans..." The eldest princess looked at the emperor's figure.

"I plan to keep the Emperor's Dao Fruit myself." Jiang Li said.

If the emperor continues to be sealed here, maybe one day someone will break through the outer defenses and truly unseal the emperor.

The Great Master wants Jiang Li to accommodate the Emperor's Dao Fruit, the Imperial Academy Chief Academician wants someone to accommodate the Emperor's Dao Fruit, and the Heavenly Lord wants to seize the Emperor's Dao Fruit. Too many people are coveting it.

Jiang Li felt that it would be better for him to keep the Emperor's Dao Fruit himself, to prevent it from being stolen someday.

"So, I want to kill the emperor."

Jiang Li's voice became flat and without ups and downs. "The Emperor sent the King of Shu to help Meng Jun and the First Prince, but his purpose was not to let the First Prince accept the Emperor's Dao Fruit, but to obtain the Emperor's Dao Fruit himself. But even if the King of Shu was blocked, the Emperor did not take any related actions, so I think the Emperor still has a little time."

This last bit of time was enough for the emperor to kill the rebellious son who coveted the emperor's Dao fruit, and then leave the imperial city. Even if the emperor wanted to survive, he might have to seek help from the Heavenly Sovereign.

Although the Emperor of Heaven has betrayed the Emperor, under the current circumstances, perhaps the Emperor of Heaven is the only one who is most likely to save the Emperor.

If Jiang Li wants to unseal the emperor, he may have to face the emperor who is clinging to his last chance of survival.

If he wants to take the emperor's Taoist fruit, he has to kill the emperor.

The eldest princess' eyes fluctuated as she looked at her younger brother.

She is the emperor's eldest sister, and naturally has a deep relationship with him. Unfortunately, all her feelings became false after the emperor ascended the throne, and even vanished when she tried to stop the emperor later.

However, upon hearing that the emperor was about to die, the princess could not help but feel sad.

After Feng Manlou left, another loved one was about to leave.

She stared at the emperor's figure for a while, her eyes fluctuated, as if tears were brewing, but eventually the eldest princess's eyes returned to calm.

"Then kill him." She said softly.

In response to her words, a Yinglong slowly rose from the ground, looked at Jiang Li and said, "The Baoji Cave Heaven has been brought here."

Tu Bo’s perception was correct. Yu Shi Yuanjun did go to activate Baoji Cave Heaven, but not to kill Tu Bo, but to kill the emperor.

At the same time, the golden light became extremely strong and began to converge, with powerful primordial Qi gathering and converging to evolve.
