When they stepped into the Golden Carriage, Wu Shang was not there.
Shen Feng was not surprised. Wu Shang was in charge of the entire death camp and was also guarding the defense line of the thirty-six cities. Shen Feng thought that he was doing his duty by going to Tianqi personally for the sake of his subordinate's life.
"Sit."
Shen Feng sat down and pointed at a random spot. Xie Tian sat cross-legged.
The two of them fell into silence.
This was a cold scene that no one outside the Golden Carriage could have imagined. Just now, outside the Golden Carriage, Crown Prince Shen Feng bestowed countless unprecedented honors on Xie Tian.
The reason was simple.
Shen Feng thought so highly of Xie Tian only because of Wu Shang.
Even now, he was still confused why Wu Shang, as the highest commander of the death camp, would kneel to him to save an ordinary soldier of the seventh battalion.
Kneeling was the highest military salute in the death camp. Ever since Wu Shang became the commander of the second battalion, he had only kneeled to the Divine Emperor.
The honor that Wu Shang brought him was also unprecedented.
"What's your relationship with Wu Shang?"
Puzzled, Shen Feng could not help but ask.
With just this one sentence, Xie Tian knew everything.
"The reason why Shen Feng treated me so well outside the Military Department was not because of the Divine Emperor, but because of Lord Wu Shang!"
"It was Lord Wu Shang who saved me!"
"And it was a big move, so big that it made Shen Feng very confused!"
"The Crown Prince does not know my true identity!"
"Lord Wu Shang is my superior, and I am willing to die for Lord Wu Shang."
This was Xie Tian's answer. Shen Feng nodded. He did not find anything special from Xie Tian's expression, but he was not disappointed.
Because until now, Wu Shang ranked first among the people he cared about, but there was no sign of Xie Tian.
After entering the Golden Carriage, the atmosphere became silent again.
In contrast, outside the Golden Carriage, Tianqi City was in a frenzy because of Shen Feng's actions.
"First pardoned, then killed, and then personally entered the death prison to receive Wuzhen, wear the armor, and board the carriage together! Such an honor has never been heard of before!"
"The Crown Prince is too playful. Duanmu Qiu will definitely pee blood when he goes back, haha!"
"Wuzhen also knows how to play, using the prophecy to slap Duanmu Qiu. That kid's face turned green. Tsk tsk, so cool, so domineering!"
"Even compared to the immortal Xie Tian bestowed by the Divine Emperor, Wu Shang is not at all!"
"One Xie Tian, and the other Wuzhen, one is!"
In the Hong Family, Old Lady Gu Sha sighed from time to time, causing her descendants to shudder in fear.
"Dad, based on great-grandmother's tone, it sounds like she wants to serve two husbands." Hong Yong blinked.
Red Ninja was just like her name. She resisted the urge to kill this fool with a single palm strike and smiled, "What do you mean?"
"Heh, I don't mind becoming the brother-in-law of two geniuses at the same time. I'm just worried about Hongyi," Hong Yong said worriedly. "Both of them are stronger than the other. How can Hongyi handle them?"
"Fuck off!"
Inside the She Clan, the people of the She Clan were going crazy.
The people who'd gone to inquire about it had already tortured them to the point of suffering, and the outcome of the truth being revealed in the end was like a basin of cold water that splashed onto their hearts.
Shen Feng was the next Divine Emperor and the next Prefecture Lord. Would the She Clan dare to touch someone who was so highly regarded by him?
After hesitating for a long time, everyone heaved a sigh of relief, because they realized that they didn't need to make this painful decision.
Therefore, hundreds of the She Clan's elders had their eyes on Evil Seeking Defeat.
The next moment, they saw a face that was struggling countless times more than theirs.
Evil Crown sighed, and whispered to Evil Seeking Defeat: "Perhaps, Wu Zhen is not Xie Tian"
"No, it can't be …" Evil Seeking Defeat looked pained and dazed. "He must be Xie Tian, he must be …"
"The Crown Prince is not like the Divine Emperor, and Xie Tian is not like Wu Zhen." Evil Crown sighed. "The Divine Emperor's act of immortality is a bit of a joke. The She Clan attacked him because of the inheritance of the Evil Emperor, and His Majesty couldn't interfere, but …"
How could Evil Seeking Defeat not understand this? Even if they firmly believed that Wu Zhen was Xie Tian, where was the evidence?
No matter how strong the She Clan was, they couldn't act tyrannically against the Crown Prince of the Jin Dynasty, and put the name Xie Tian on Wu Zhen's head!
"The golden carriage has arrived at the Flying Sky Pavilion. The Crown Prince and Wu Zhen are talking and laughing. King Zhao and King Qin are out to welcome them. King Zhao …"
Evil Crown frowned. "How is King Zhao?"
"King Zhao calls Wu Zhen his brother!"
Hearing this, Evil Seeking Defeat's eyelids started to twitch. Evil Crown sighed again. "King Zhao has a lively nature. It's normal for him to do such a strange thing. What else do you have to say?"
The deacon who wanted to say something was shocked. Trembling, he said, "They … they burned paper, burned incense, and chopped chicken heads at the entrance of the Flying Sky Pavilion. They became sworn brothers. The Crown Prince smiled and didn't stop them!"
After spitting out three mouthfuls of blood, Evil Seeking Defeat was so angry that he fainted.
Even though the one who became sworn brothers with Xie Tian was King Zhao, the weakest of the three princes, it didn't matter.
What mattered was that ever since the Divine Halberd took over the Central State, the royal family had only become sworn brothers with two people who didn't share the same surname.
One was Xie Wudi, who was the brother of the Divine Halberd.
The other was Wu Zhen, who was the brother of Shen Wei.
Another great honor. Although Xie Tian was happy from the bottom of his heart, he was in the limelight too much.
"Don't frown. Is it so hard to be my brother?" Shen Wei's beady eyes narrowed into slits. "Once you become my brother, I'll tell my father that you can come and go as you please in the Shen Palace. Hehe, you know what I mean!"
"Thank you, big brother."
What happened outside the Flying Sky Pavilion spread like wildfire throughout Tianqi City. Shen Feng stood at the side, smiling throughout the whole process. But in his heart, he was confused again.
Because before the ceremony started, he took a look at the Shen Palace.
In the Shen Palace, his father, Shen Shao, didn't stop this.
What did this mean?
It meant that the God Emperor was happy to see Wu Zhen and his second brother, Shen Wei, become sworn brothers.
"Father, are you indulging second brother, or are you treating Wu Zhen well?"
Shen Feng thought about it and remembered the change in power seven years later. He had an answer.
Duanmu Qiu had changed.
His gaze was no longer on Shen Feng, but on Xie Tian.
The more he looked, the wider the smile on his face.
Chou Jun and the rest were shocked. They knew that the more their young lord smiled, the more murderous his heart was.
"Why? Is Young Lord Duanmu envious?" King Qin's Divine Axe smiled faintly.
Everyone looked at Duanmu Qiu.
Duanmu Chou laughed out loud: "That's not true, how about this, Brother Wuzhen, if you think highly of me, Duanmu Chou, take advantage of the fact that the incense and candles have yet to be extinguished to settle the score with me!"
Xie Tian looked at Duanmu Qiu and blew at the shrine.
Duanmu Qiu's expression suddenly changed!
"Hahahaha!"
Looking at the extinguished incense, Shen Wei laughed until tears came out. He really loved this brother of his to death. His unique face-slapping method was so satisfying!
Even Shen Feng couldn't help but smile at this scene.
"Welcome, Your Highness!"
Hearing the familiar voice, Wu Zhen suppressed his impulse and looked at Boss Jia and Zhen Xiao 'er before following Shen Feng and the rest upstairs.
"Neigh, neigh!"
Xie Tian paused and glanced at Xiao Ma in the backyard of the Flying Sky Pavilion with a smile. He was extremely happy.
"I didn't expect Xiao Ma to be a third-grade spirit beast now!"
However, he was a little puzzled as to why he didn't see Xiao Ma in the Flying Sky Pavilion.
At this moment, Xiao Ma, who was at the True Element Realm, was leading hundreds of experts and waiting for someone to appear outside the Million Mountains.
Not long after, a black shadow appeared. Xiao Ma took a closer look and almost cried.
"Xue Yan, your hand!"
