The Sixth Prince couldn't believe his ears. Back then, these cultivators had supported him with all their might.
Even when he fled to Linhai, no one dared to disrespect him.
But now, not only did no one speak up for him, they even wanted to force him to abdicate.
He held the Seal of Mountains and Rivers and roared, "I'm the Emperor of Zhao. How dare you offend me?"
Lord Linhai said disdainfully, "The Emperor sees his subjects as his brothers, and the subjects see the Emperor as their confidants.
The Emperor sees his subjects as weeds, and the subjects see the Emperor as enemies.
In order to escape, you treated us like weeds and abandoned us. Naturally, we see you as an enemy.
Now that you've been betrayed, you can just abdicate and fight for the new Emperor. You can even become a King. "
The Sixth Prince sneered, "You're all injured. You're no match for me."
Zhao Lingjiang narrowed his eyes and looked at the Sixth Prince. "I'm not young anymore and I've lived long enough.
Uncle is responsible for the Zhao Clan's inheritance, and Lord Linhai is the link between all the clans in Linhai. I'm the only one who's useless.
Why don't I detonate my Jindan and destroy you, a coward who is afraid of death and fights with your own family? "
Hearing this, the Sixth Prince was a bit scared.
Zhao Jingguo said disdainfully, "You still haven't learned the skills left by the ancestors. Believe it or not, I can kill you with one strike right now."
The Sixth Prince was even more scared. Zhao Jingguo was the number one genius of the Zhao Clan in a thousand years. He established his Violet Palace in his seventies and became one with the sword before he was a hundred years old.
Previously, he was able to fight head-on with Daoist Jinyang and gradually gain the upper hand.
Even with the Seal of Mountains and Rivers, he wasn't sure he could defeat Zhao Jingguo.
Moreover, from what he said, he still had some tricks up his sleeve.
After thinking for a long time, he sighed and said, "I'm willing to abdicate, but you have to promise me a King title."
Zhao Jingguo replied, "How can we have the right to be a King? It's up to the new Emperor to decide what title to give you.
Now that the Zhao Clan is poor and Zhao Liang isn't strong. He also has no prestige, so the Ninth Prince should be the new Emperor.
The Ninth Prince is benevolent and won't kill his brothers. At the very least, he'll give you the title of Duke or Marquis.
Whether you can be a King or not, it depends on how much you can contribute in the future. "
He was a coward to begin with, and the courage to fight with his life on the line when he was in a fit of rage had disappeared.
As long as he was not killed, he would not dare to risk his life even if he became a commoner.
Now that he had the title of Duke, which was not much different from the title of Prince, it was already quite good.
He removed the ownership of the Seal of Mountains and Rivers and handed it to Zhao Jingguo. "I am willing to abdicate the throne to Ninth Brother."
Zhao Jingguo took the Seal of Mountains and Rivers and said, "Linghai, you still have some clansmen. Go to the Green Willow Province and ask the Ninth Prince to come and inherit the throne.
Also, send someone to pay a visit to the Wang Clan to improve their relationship with them.
The reason why the Wang family was willing to take Zhao Liang in was because of the Zhao family.
We've offended all the families in the State of Zhao. Without their support, we don't have much of a chance of winning.
The Wang Family still had some prestige among these old families.
Putting the Wang Family in an important position could also set an example for the other old families.
Even if he couldn't get them to join him, he could at least get some families to remain neutral.
There was also Ling Yan from the Gui Yuan Sword Sect. He had been injured at the Nine Underworld Mysterious Crystal Mine. Even though he had not recovered yet, he still had some combat strength left.
He has many subordinates and is an important force. Send someone to contact him. "
Lord Linhai clasped his hands in acknowledgment and left to give orders.
Wang Daoyuan did not work hard on cultivating the Cloud and Rain Heart Sutra in the past few days in his abode under Jade Spring Peak. Instead, he modified his movement technique near the Fire Eye.
It was hard to say how the war between the Zhao family and the three sects would develop. He would not be able to avoid fighting Golden Core cultivators.
The only profound movement techniques he knew were the Cloud Mist Escape and Scarlet Luan Fire Escape.
The Scarlet Luan Fire Escape was incompatible with his Violet Palace phenomenon, so he modified it to become the Vermilion Bird Fire Escape.
The Vermilion Bird and the Scarlet Luan were both phoenixes. They shared many similarities, so it was not difficult to modify them.
The modified Vermilion Bird Fire Escape combined with his Violet Palace phenomenon, making him much faster.
Fire-elemental movement techniques had always been known for their speed. Coupled with the fact that the Scarlet Luan Fire Escape was a legacy of the Zhou family, it was obviously extremely profound.
Right now, the Vermilion Bird Fire Escape's speed could be considered above average among level four movement techniques.
After all, he had modified it in a hurry. There were still many areas where it was lacking. It was still a distance away from the best movement techniques.
In addition, he also cultivated the Gu family's Flood Dragon Escape.
Fighting in the State of Zhao was inseparable from water. His Cloud Mist Escape could not compare to the Flood Dragon Escape in water.
He did not modify the Flood Dragon Escape. After all, he did not have the water dragon phenomenon.
The Azure Dragon was of the wood attribute. Although it had no problems in water because it was a dragon, it was not good at controlling water.
The Black Tortoise was not known for its speed. No matter how he modified the Flood Dragon Escape, it would not be of much use to him.
Zhou Luan walked over from the backyard. "Administrator, you've come to work again.
The Zhao family and the three sects had a decisive battle in the Three River Market. The Zhao family was defeated, and the three sects also suffered heavy losses.
Only four Golden Core cultivators of the Zhao family escaped back to the Wanchuan Market. After that, there seemed to be internal strife, and the long-legged prince was forced to abdicate.
Zhao Jingguo and the others are preparing to welcome the Ninth Prince to the throne. They will probably send someone to contact you. "
Wang Daoyuan smiled. "How can it be so easy for me to make a move?
Right now, it's still hard to say whether the two sides are strong or weak. Let's play dumb and see whether the two sides are strong or weak.
Moreover, our Wang family is not involved now. Both sides want to rope us in.
Right now, we're waiting for the best price. How can we easily declare our position?
Right, what's Zhao Jingguo's background? Does he have any minor divine abilities?
According to the previous intelligence, this person is extremely strong. I'm afraid he's not much weaker than Master before he broke through to the half-step Yuanying. "
Zhou Luan shook her head. "He stays in Linhai all year round. Bloodshadow doesn't have many records of him making a move.
We only know that when the Zhao family was destroyed, he was already one with the sword before he was even a hundred years old. He was a sword cultivator genius second only to the Swordless Daoist.
As for whether he has any minor divine abilities, there's no way to know. "
Soon, the Twelfth Uncle sent a letter saying that the Zhao family had come to visit.
The visitor was a late-stage Zifu cultivator who claimed to be the nephew of the Linhai King. He wanted to see Wang Daoyuan.
Naturally, he would not receive a late-stage Zifu cultivator. He just had the Twelfth Uncle chat with him and send him off.
Before Zhuge Liang came out of the mountains, Liu Bei had to visit him three times.
How could it be so easy to get him to surrender with the Administrator's Estate?
If he didn't put on airs, it would be difficult to ask for a price.
In less than two days, the Underworld Sect's Vice Lord, Gu Wangzong, personally came to visit Yuquan Peak.
Wang Daoyuan had long expected that the Underworld Sect would come. After the battle of the Three River Market, the Underworld Sect's assets were almost exhausted. At this time, they naturally wanted to rope in their nominal subordinate force.
In order to let the Zhao family know that the Underworld Sect came to rope him in, Wang Daoyuan personally rode a cloud outside the mountain to welcome Gu Wangzong.
He invited him to his own hall and asked, "Gu Daoyou, if there's anything, just send a message. The battle outside is not over yet. Why do you take the risk?"
Gu Wangzong cupped his hands and said, "After the battle of the Three River Market, our Underworld Sect suffered heavy losses. I'm afraid that in the future, we will become the weakest sect.
Grand Elder, please disregard the past and return to the Underworld Sect to strengthen the sect. "
Wang Daoyuan said with a smile, "Yannan County has never left the Underworld Sect. Daoyou, don't worry. The stability of Zhao is what I want to see.
If the Underworld Sect declines, my Yannan County is no match for the Cruel Sun Palace. "
Gu Wangzong didn't talk about anything serious. He had been talking about the hundreds of years of friendship between the Wang family and the Underworld Sect.
It seemed that the situation of the Underworld Sect was really bad. Luo Jiuyou, that insidious villain, panicked and sent Gu Wangzong to rope in their relationship.
One would not hit a smiling person. Wang Daoyuan naturally laughed along with him.
Anyway, the longer they talked, the more anxious the Zhao family would be. They would have to offer a higher price to rope him in.
After all, the position of Yannan County was too important.
If the Wang family continued to follow the Underworld Sect, the Zhao family's forces in Shanbei, Lvliu, and Wanchuan Market would be divided into three parts.
After talking for four or five hours, Gu Wangzong planned to leave. Wang Daoyuan rode a cloud and sent him a hundred miles west of Yuquan Peak.
