Chapter 326
Political Game
In the Imperial Clan Court of the Northern Province.
An incomparably grand palace was built from crystal jades. These crystal jades that flickered with a lustrous luster were engraved with exquisite patterns. Dragons, phoenixes, qilins, and various other strange beasts were baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. They were majestic and valiant, and hundreds of beasts were present.
There was one person living in this palace. It was none other than the First Prince of the Northern Province, Cheng Yin.
Inside the palace.
All kinds of gold and jade were piled up. It was incomparably gorgeous. Cheng Yin sat on an armchair carved from crystal jade. He gently stroked the snow-white rabbit in his arms and closed his eyes.
"The Big Dipper Army was completely wiped out? Only the seven Commanders came back alive? "Hearing this news, Cheng Yin's eyes abruptly opened, and his gaze became incredibly sharp as he spoke in a deep voice.
"Who is it? Even if Shi Da and Shi Ba joined forces, it would be impossible to severely injure the Big Dipper Army! Not to mention the commanders of the Ice Tiger Army and the Ice Dragon Army all joined forces! "
"This time, Shi Da came to the 'Blood Demon Eighteen Immortals', and there were seven Immortals behind her to protect her. Shi Ba used the 'Thunder of Falling', and in the middle, a mysterious man and a pig appeared and swallowed a commander of the Ice Tiger Army and the Ice Dragon Army. This caused the morale of the army to collapse. The mysterious man held the 'Five Elements Bow of Falling Immortals' and used the 'Sixty-Four Thousand Swords of Killing Immortals'. The starlight of the starlight couldn't be stopped. He ignored the protection of the restriction … "The rabbit in Cheng Yin's arms said in a gentle voice.
Cheng Yin closed his eyes and forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart. He began to meditate.
"The mysterious man with the Five Elements Bow of Falling Immortals and a pig? The Sixty-Four Thousand Swords of Falling Immortals … "
"What? Could it be that Young Master knows who this mysterious man is?" The snow-white rabbit spoke.
"I have a rough idea. This person is not from the Northern Region, but a rising star from the Eastern Region. His name is Xuanyuan, and he has three promises from the Nightmare Ghost. He possesses the Spiritual Items of the Five Elements and the Dark Phoenix Gold, which can break through all protective Restrictions in the world. He also has a mount with a pig's head and a dog's body by his side. His Restriction Technique is unparalleled in the world. I can't think of anyone else other than him." The North Region's Eldest Prince was a prodigy of the heavens. He would have a thorough understanding of all the rising prodigies in the world. Every 500 years, the East Region, North Region, South Region, and West Region's young prodigies would gather at the Central Region to compete and create a Great Emperor Rankings. Without a doubt, the no.1 ranker would be the one with the highest hopes of becoming a great emperor.
They would see which clan's descendant had the most potential and had the highest hopes of becoming a great emperor. The Eastern Region and Northern Region weren't too far apart. Cheng Yin would naturally gather information on the various prodigies of the various regions. He had a photographic memory and immediately guessed that this person was most likely Xuanyuan.
"So it is him. Interesting. As a person from the Eastern Region, he actually dares to come to our Northern Region. I wonder what does the Eldest Prince have in mind?" The snow-white rabbit giggled a few times. Its voice was pleasing to the ears like a silver bell. It would cause one's mind to sway and was filled with endless temptation.
"I am now trapped in this place and cannot enter or leave. Xiao Chang, help me meet this Xuanyuan. You can bring along the seven commanders of the 'Big Dipper Army'. I want to see how capable he is!"
Cheng Yin's eyes revealed endless murderous intent. The 'Big Dipper Army' was an army that he had nurtured since he was young. The cultivation of the divine ability, the combination array, the inner core, and the pure energy source were all things that he had spent a lot of effort and money on. Now that everything was destroyed, how could he not be enraged?
"Remember, if you can capture him alive, try to capture him alive. If you can't, you have to bring his corpse back. The 'Five Elements Physique' is no small matter. The 'Red Lotus Karmic Fire' in his body is perfect for me to devour. Hmph, since he wants to deliver himself to me, there is no reason for me not to accept."
"Understood!" The snow-white rabbit smiled sweetly, using a soul-stirring voice.
"How are things going between Cheng Yin and Yin Zhenluo?" A strange smile appeared on Cheng Yin's face.
"Hmm, Yin Zhenluo didn't refuse the second prince's proposal. The two of them are now in a cooperative state. They are looking for the best opportunity to enter the 'Forbidden Land' and find a way to get rid of the 'Heart Devouring Dragon Bug'. The two of them are pretty good. The second prince is gentle, handsome, and talented. I don't know how many women have fallen for him. Presumably, after a long time, this Yin Zhenluo will never forget the second prince."
The snow-white rabbit jumped out of Cheng Yin's arms, and with a shake of its body, it transformed into a woman. She was clad in a snow-white leather jacket, with a fair complexion and a seductive appearance. Her breasts were full, and her figure was graceful and graceful. Her beautiful legs were long and slender, and her white dress dragged on the ground. Her seductive appearance was boundless, and her red lips were alluring. Her breath smelled like orchids, and her fragrance permeated everywhere.
"Hmm, in that case, I'm relieved. The 'Forbidden Land' has countless hidden treasures. If I join hands with my second brother, we will be safe. Yin Zhenluo is the 'Heavenly Dragon True Immortal Body' of the Yin Zhenluo in the Eastern Province. She is not to be underestimated. Naturally, they will secretly send experts to protect her. If my second brother can make a good thing happen with Yin Zhenluo, it will be of great benefit to my future plans." Cheng Yin smiled faintly. Although the Big Dipper Army had been annihilated, there was no doubt that the good news of his second brother and Yin Zhenluo had improved his mood greatly. One Yin Zhenluo was enough to fight against thousands of soldiers and horses. Xuanyuan was especially fond of Yin Zhenluo. If he knew that Yin Zhenluo was in the hands of his second brother, what would he do?
Cheng Yin was very happy at the thought of this. Just as Cheng Yin was smiling happily, Little Chang suddenly frowned. She had received the latest secret letter. During this period of time, Little Chang was acting as Cheng Yin's messenger. She immediately reported:
"Not good, the Emperor of Mount Tai has returned to the Beizhou Dynasty!"
Cheng Yin frowned and coldly snorted:
"That old bastard is definitely coming to make trouble for me."
"That's right. He and a group of elders of the Beizhou Dynasty jointly submitted a memorial saying that they want to abolish your position as the Crown Prince and let Second Prince Cheng Yang succeed you. They say that you are cruel and disregard all consequences. You are locked up in the Imperial Clan Court, but you still refuse to reflect on your mistakes. You have the Big Dipper Army counterattack the Demon Race and kill Shi Yan. You want to trigger a full-scale war between the Demon Race and the Beizhou Dynasty. You disregard the lives of innocent people. This is an unforgivable crime! "Little Chang frowned worriedly. Clearly, an existence like the Emperor of Mount Tai was not to be underestimated. Last time, the Three Ministers, Six Ministries, and Nine Ministers had jointly submitted a memorial that had left Cheng Yin in a terrible fix. If not for the Imperial Clan joining hands to protect Cheng Yin, Cheng Yin would not have been sentenced to only three years in the Imperial Clan Court.
"These old bastards are getting worse and worse. Could it be that the Beizhou Dynasty is afraid of the Demon Race? The supreme Dao Artifact is suppressing the throne of the Beizhou Dynasty, but they are afraid of the wolf in front and the tiger in the back. They are not thinking of making progress. Are they trying to nurture a tiger that will only invite calamity?" Cheng Yin coldly snorted. A terrifying Yin Fire seeped out of his body, giving off an extremely cold and scorching sensation. This was the Fire of Extreme Yin.
"Young Master, what should we do now?" Little Chang asked.
"Hmph, it's impossible for them to touch my position as the Crown Prince. Don't worry, the seven commanders of the Big Dipper Army know what to do."
Cheng Yin smiled coldly and pursed his blade-like lips. He closed his eyes and said indifferently, "You're right.
He closed his eyes and said, "Little Chang, go find that Xuanyuan first. You don't have to worry about anything else. The Emperor of Mount Tai wants to touch me only because he likes my second brother's pure-hearted and kind-hearted personality. Second brother and I have a deep brotherhood. If second brother and I don't get along well, I'm a bit worried. However, second brother has always supported me in becoming the Crown Prince, so he naturally won't compete with me. As for the other brothers, if they have the ability and qualifications to inherit the position of Crown Prince, there is still Seventh Brother. However, Seventh Brother values brotherhood more than anything else. He is always outside and has a carefree nature. He doesn't care about power or wealth, so he is even less of a threat to me.
"Understood!" Little Chang smiled and took a step forward, disappearing in front of Cheng Yin.
Cheng Yin raised his head slightly, the corners of his mouth forming a cold smile.
"The Beizhou Dynasty is destined to be mine. There will be one day when I will wipe out all the demons and demons. Then, I will lead the iron hooves of the Beizhou Dynasty to sweep across the world and unify the world!"
Cheng Yin was extremely ambitious, decisive, and dared to make sacrifices. He was indeed a candidate for the future hegemon. In the Beizhou Dynasty, the old Emperor and the old Imperial Uncle thought very highly of Cheng Yin. That was why they had supported him. Otherwise, given the consequences of Cheng Yin's crimes, even if he was the First Prince, he would be deposed, stripped of all his abilities, and grounded for life!
A day later.
The seven commanders of the Big Dipper Army came to the Ministry of War to beg for punishment. They bowed every three steps and kowtowed every nine steps.
They said that when they saw that the First Prince Cheng Yin had been grounded for three years because of the demons, they were resentful and had selfishly dispatched troops to Heavenly Ice City to wipe out the demons.
Who would have thought that they would be defeated by the demon army, leading to such a consequence? They knew that they had sinned deeply, so they had come here to beg for punishment and seek death.
The Emperor of Mount Tai was furious. He naturally knew that this was Cheng Yin's doing, but there was nothing he could do to Cheng Yin. However, the Emperor of Mount Tai still blamed Cheng Yin for not being strict enough. The original three years of confinement was reduced to six years. The seven commanders of the Big Dipper Army were stripped of their positions and demoted to commoners. They would never be employed by the Beizhou Dynasty and would be banished to Tianshuang City to make up for their crimes.
The twelve commanders of the Ice Tiger Army and Ice Dragon Army in Heavenly Ice City all said that they had been ordered by the Big Dipper Army and had no choice but to obey. However, they had abandoned Heavenly Ice City after the battle and should have been stripped of their positions and investigated. However, after the efforts of the First Prince Cheng Yin's men and considering that the Imperial Court was in need of manpower, it was not appropriate for them to go to war. Thus, each of them was demoted by three ranks and would remain in the Imperial Capital to observe the situation.
When Cheng Yin found out, he was furious. He had not expected the Emperor of Mount Tai to be so ruthless. He had sent the seven commanders of the Big Dipper Army to Tianshuang City at once. It was clear that he wanted to cut off his left and right arms. However, Cheng Yin had left a backup plan. Just as Cheng Yin had expected, the twelve commanders of the Ice Tiger Army and Ice Dragon Army all came to submit.
As a result, Cheng Yin's strength was actually increasing! Cheng Yin and the various existences of the Beizhou Dynasty were engaged in a political battle, but none of them were defeated. This showed that Cheng Yin's ability was extraordinary.
