Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

"Shengzi Lin Bai, I would like to advise you, if you want to investigate this matter, you'd better be prepared to die!"

"No matter who poisoned the eldest prince and the second prince, he would not want you to reveal the matter."

"If he finds out that you are investigating this matter, he will definitely become angry and kill you!"

Kirikawa Weng reminded Lin Bai earnestly.

Lin Bai also knew the stakes involved. Thousands of years ago, after the death of the eldest prince and the second prince, Emperor Chu did not pursue the case because no one was willing to pursue it to the end.

But things are different now.

Lin Bai wanted to uncover the matter, find out the real culprit, and use it to benefit His Highness King Chen.

So even if Emperor Chu is unwilling to investigate this matter, as long as Lin Bai insists on finding the evidence and worshiping it in front of Emperor Chu, he will definitely not sit idly by and do nothing!

This is to force Emperor Chu to investigate the matter.

Conspiracy to kill the prince was a treasonous act. If this matter were to be revealed, many people would be involved.

If the person who massacred the eldest prince and the second prince knew that Lin Bai was pursuing the matter, he would definitely try his best to kill Lin Bai.

"Then from the perspective of seniors, who will attack the eldest prince and second prince again?"

Lin Bai asked Kirigawa Weng curiously.

"You asked knowingly!" Mr. Wuchuan smiled softly and said, "Shengzi Lin Bai, you already have the answer in your heart, so why do you need to ask me?"

Lin Bai chuckled and said: "Although I have been in the Imperial Capital for almost a year, I still don't know much about the Imperial Capital. I still want to hear Senior Kirikawa Ong's views."

Kirikawa Weng said softly: "After the death of the eldest prince and the second prince, who will benefit the most?"

"It will be beneficial to His Highness Prince Chen, the Eighth Prince, the Twelfth Prince, and the Third Prince!"

"They are all likely to kill the eldest prince and the second prince."

"But judging from the current situation, the twelfth prince died tragically in prison, His Highness Prince Chen was demoted, and the eighth prince left for a foreign land, so only the third prince is left!"

"Isn't Prince Lin Bai curious? So many princes of Emperor Chu have either died or been demoted. Why is the third prince safe?"

Kirigawa Weng smiled meaningfully at Lin Bai.

His words speak for themselves.

Kirikawa Ong also suspected that it was the third prince.

He continued: "Furthermore, His Highness Prince Chen was indifferent to fame and wealth. He only wanted to find a sword that could cut everything in the world and an indestructible shield. He had no intention of becoming emperor."

"And the eldest prince and the second prince are good to His Highness King Chen, and His Highness King Chen also supports them in becoming the Emperor of Chu!"

"So it can't be His Highness Prince Chen! Then only the third prince is left."

Lin Bai took a deep breath, Kirikawa Weng's view coincided with his own.

Kirikawa continued: "And the third prince is very strange."

Lin Bai asked curiously: "What's strange?"

Kirikawa Weng said: "Although the third prince has extraordinary talents, he is not ranked among the eldest prince, the second prince, His Royal Highness Prince Chen, the seventh prince, and the twelfth prince. Among the many princes, he is not outstanding. man of."

"Among the princes, he is mediocre and has almost no dazzling presence."

"But such an ordinary person suddenly rose to prominence and became the most powerful prince under Emperor Chu in just two or three hundred years. Isn't it strange?"

"In the past, we all thought that the third prince kept a low profile and did not show his talents."

"But when I found out that the eldest prince and the second prince died of poison, then I realized that there must be an expert behind the third prince!"

Kirikawa Ong said confidently.

"If the third prince didn't have the guidance of an expert behind him, he would never have been able to rise from an ordinary prince to the most powerful prince among the Chu royal family!"

"And Holy Son Lin Bai, you can think about it carefully."

"With the current power of the third prince inside and outside the imperial capital, which almost covers the sky with one hand, he is undoubtedly the best choice for Emperor Chu."

"But now it is less than two years before his birthday. At this time, Emperor Chu suddenly recalled His Highness King Chen, but he did not appoint the third prince as the crown prince!"

"Don't you think it's strange?"

Wu Chuanweng asked Lin Bai with a solemn expression.

When Lin Bai heard this, he felt that what Kirikawa Weng said made sense.

When did His Highness King Chen return to the imperial capital?

It was three years ago.

Three years ago, Lin Bai arrived in Ziwei City with His Highness King Chen.

Later, Lin Bai went to Tianshui Sect, and His Highness King Chen returned to the royal family.

At that time, there were only five years left before the birthday of Emperor Chu.

Five years is a short time for mortals, but for warriors, this time is like a snap of a finger.

It stands to reason that the Chu Emperor's birthday is approaching, and the Chu Emperor should establish the identity of the Third Prince as the crown prince as soon as possible.

But why did he recall His Highness King Chen from his fiefdom at such a critical time, and also provide strong support to help His Highness Chen gain a foothold in the imperial capital?

Wu Chuanweng smiled coldly and said: "His Majesty the Emperor of Chu must have discovered some people behind the third prince, so he was worried about handing over the throne to the third prince, so he had to dispatch His Highness King Chen to return to the imperial capital."

Lin Bai asked: "Then from the perspective of seniors, who is the person behind the third prince?"

"Is it the military king of Chu State? Or the royal family of Chu State? Or is it the five families and seven sects of Chu State?"

Kirikawa Weng smiled softly and said: "I don't know about this, and I don't want to know. Knowing too much makes me very tired. Now I just want to blacksmith, plant flowers, and watch the rising sun in this yellow gourd. , send the sunset away, that’s all.”

Lin Bai looked gloomy and asked softly: "Senior Ren Xin asked me to come to see you. I wonder if there is anything you haven't told me yet?"

Lin Bai chatted a lot with Wu Chuanweng, and he also let Lin Bai know how deep the pool of water between the imperial capital and the royal family was.

It can be said to be inextricably linked and intricate.

It would be difficult for a warrior who has not experienced it personally to understand the dangers involved.

But what Lin Bai values ​​​​most is what clues Mr. Kirikawa can give.

After all, the purpose of Lin Bai's invitation was to find out the cause of death of the eldest prince and the second prince.

As long as the cause of death of the eldest prince and the second prince is found, even if it cannot be moved to the third prince, at least the Chen family and the Holy Lotus Palace can be brought in to help His Royal Highness Prince Chen.

Wu Chuanweng took a deep breath and said with gloomy eyes: "The Tribulation of Gods and Demons is one of the seventy-five king poisons in the Southern Xinjiang Worm Valley. Only the core disciples of the Southern Xinjiang Worm Valley can come into contact with this poison."

"When Ren Xin and I went to the Southern Region to investigate, we learned a piece of news."

"It is said that a traitor came out of the Worm Valley in southern Xinjiang back then. He sneaked into the secret place and stole many files, among which were the cultivation methods of the God and Demon Tribulation."

"Southern Border Worm Valley sent warriors to hunt him down, but then this person escaped from the Southern Territory and disappeared."

"If I guess correctly, the death of the eldest prince and the second prince must be inextricably linked to this person."

Lin Bai's eyes flashed, there was such important news.

"What's this person's name?"

Lin Bai asked hurriedly.

Wu Chuanweng said: "Xia Jingzhi!"
