Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

Chapter 5162 The situation is complicated!

"There is a prince who has an inseparable connection with the Blood God Religion!"

When Xu Zhong said this, Lin Bai's face darkened.

If there was a prince from the Chu Dynasty behind the Blood God Sect, then this matter would be a lot more troublesome.

Lin Bai asked: "Are you sure the information you spied on is accurate? Who is this prince?"

Xu Zhong shook his head and said: "They didn't tell who this prince is! But I believe... this information should be accurate!"

"Because the Blood God Religion has been able to corrupt so many dynasty officials on the land of Kezhou. It is definitely not something that the Blood God Religion can do!"

"Even if the leader of the Blood God Sect possesses the power to penetrate the heaven and earth, it will be impossible for all the dynasty officials in Kezhou to turn against each other at the same time without someone else pulling the strings behind the scenes!"

"And..." Xu Zhong narrowed his eyes. He was hesitant and hesitant. It seemed that what he was going to say next was related to the secrets of the Zhaoxing Division.

After much thought, Xu Zhong decided to tell Lin Bai, he said: "Besides, before His Royal Highness King Chen and Miss Li Guxian sent the Kezhou Blood God Sect roster to Emperor Chu, Zhao Xingsi was already on the land of Kezhou. Traces of the Blood God Cult were discovered.”

Lin Bai frowned and asked: "Zhao Xingsi discovered the Blood God Cult in Kezhou very early?"

Xu Zhong nodded and said: "Yes, it should be a thousand years ago that the words 'Blood God Religion Resurrection' appeared in the files of the Zhaoxing Division!"

"The Blood God Cult is one of the evil cults in Chu State. The Chu State also paid an extremely heavy price to destroy the Blood God Cult, so the Zhaoxing Division also attaches great importance to this."

"According to the records in the Zhaoxing Division's files, thousands of years ago, after the Zhaoxing Division discovered signs of the Blood God Cult's resurgence, they sent spies into Kezhou to spy on the military situation."

"But after these spies arrived in Kezhou, they quickly disappeared from the world!"

Lin Bai became more and more confused as he listened, and asked: "What does it mean to evaporate from the world?"

Xu Zhong said: "They are all dead!"

Lin Bai smiled silently. He naturally knew that the implication of "evaporating from the world" was death.

But what Lin Bai couldn't understand was that the spies of the Zhaoxing Division were all good at tracking and hiding, and since they were spies, no one knew their identities.

They entered Kezhou quietly, how could they all die?

Xu Zhong explained: "One by one, the secret agents entered Kezhou, but they disappeared one after another without any news. Later, the commander of the Zhaoxing Division saw something fishy and formed a team of secret agents again to enter Kezhou!"

"After more than ten years of secret investigation, no response was obtained. During this period, the commander was beheaded for the crime of deceiving the emperor!"

"After the death of the commander, the investigation into the resurgence of the Blood God Cult in Kezhou was delayed! It was not until His Highness King Chen brought Miss Li Guxian to the capital to reveal the thousand-year-old files in the Criminal Division that they were reopened Turn on!"

Lin Bai's eyes flashed and he said, "You mean...that this prince was secretly manipulating the situation back then and assisting the Blood God Sect's resurgence!"

Xu Zhong nodded and said: "Based on the information we have gathered now, the person who held down the Zhaoxing Division to investigate the Blood God Cult a thousand years ago must be in the dynasty!"

"Now it seems that it is most likely that prince!"

Lin Bai asked: "In this case, the death of the commander of the Zhaoxing Division must be related to this prince!"

"Whoever accused the commander of deceiving the emperor is very likely to be the prince behind the Blood God Sect!"

Xu Zhong shrank his eyes and his expression became gloomy.

Lin Bai asked: "The warriors of the Zhaoxing Division must be very aware of this matter. After all, the commander of the Zhaoxing Division is equivalent to a senior elder in the five seven sects. You should be very familiar with it."

Xu Zhong nodded and said: "The person who accused the commander of deceiving the emperor is the third prince!"

"Third Prince..." Lin Bai's eyes narrowed. He had been in the Chu Kingdom for a while, and he had naturally heard of several outstanding princes from the Chu Kingdom's royal family.

Among them, the prince who is highly praised in the Chu Kingdom is the third prince!

Some even claimed that before His Highness Prince Chen returned, the third prince had been secretly groomed as a crown prince.

"If it is really the third prince, then things will be even more troublesome!" Lin Bai smiled bitterly: "Don't you know the status of the third prince in the Chu Kingdom now?"

"The third prince is now the most popular candidate for crown prince among the Chu royal family."

"Almost half of the ministers in the court strongly recommend the third prince to become the prince."

"Among the royal family, the third prince has close contacts with several powerful princes."

"Within the military headquarters, the third prince has led the army on many expeditions, fighting in the north and south, and quelling the unrest in the Chu Kingdom. Within the military headquarters, he even has the title of 'Godly General of Heaven'!"

"Do you think the Third Prince will bring trouble on you? Do you want to assist the Blood God Cult in resurrecting him?"

Lin Bai obviously didn't believe that the prince who supported the Blood God Religion behind his back was the third prince.

Because Xu Zhong was in Wuen City and only found out that there was a prince behind the Blood God Sect who was supporting the Blood God Sect, but he did not know who this prince was.

The reason why Xu Zhong guessed that it was the third prince was because he was connected to things that happened a thousand years ago, so he came up with this guess.

Xu Zhong smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Lin Bai, the affairs of the royal family are not as simple as you seem on the surface!"

"The third prince is indeed the most popular prince in the court today, but that was before His Highness King Chen came back. Now that His Highness King Chen is back, the court has begun to be turbulent."

"The princes in the royal family are all old foxes. When they see the third prince gaining power, they will naturally get closer to him. When they see the third prince losing power, they will alienate themselves!"

"Among the royal family, there is such a bond of flesh and blood!"

"As for the military headquarters, haha, it's just that someone deliberately placed military honors on the third prince's head to let him gain a foothold in the military headquarters. The God of Heaven General is just a title."

"By the way, speaking of the third prince's military exploits, do you know where the third prince achieved his greatest military exploits in his life?"

Lin Bai knew very little about the royal family, but now he was asked by Xu Zhong, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment?

Lin Bai asked: "Where?"

Xu Zhong said: "It's in Kezhou! Thousands of years ago, the state borders outside Ziwei City in Kezhou were in turmoil. Several major families and several major sects went to war, which lasted for more than ten years."

"During that time, a large number of refugees were allowed to pass through Ziwei City and enter Kezhou. These people had gone far away and had no cultivation resources, so they formed gangs in Kezhou and occupied the mountains to become kings!"

"At that time, there were many bandits in Kezhou, numbering in the millions!"

"Thousands of years ago, the third prince, following the order of Emperor Chu, led his army to live in Kezhou and was ordered to suppress the bandits. In seven years, he succeeded and completely eliminated the banditry in Kezhou!"

"And not long after the third prince returned to the court, the Zhaoxing Division received a secret report from Kezhou, saying that traces of the Blood God Sect appeared on the land of Kezhou!"

"Do you think this is a coincidence?"

Xu Zhong said lightly.
