Zhi Chang's expression froze. He recognized these two as Yin Ming and Xin Ming from Quan Dao. These two were of the same generation as him in terms of mana and cultivation. If he were to get entangled with them here, it would be difficult for him to escort the second prince away when the people from Li Wang Mountain arrived. Thus, he called out in his heart and two Daoists of the Zhi generation understood his intention. They stepped out from the crowd and confronted Yin Ming and Xin Ming from afar.
Zhi Chang said, "Let's go." He waved his sleeves and rode the wind and clouds, carrying the group of people away.
After traveling for a while, they saw a flash of sword light in front of them. Then, a Daoist with two swords on his back stepped out of the void and appeared in front of them. His aura was fierce, especially his eyes which were extremely sharp. Anyone who looked into his eyes would feel a sharp pain in their heart, as if a sharp sword was slashing towards them.
Zhi Chang did not know this person, but he could guess where he came from. He said, "Li Wang Mountain?"
The Daoist bowed and introduced himself, "Li Wang Mountain sword holder, Cheng Guang!"
At this moment, another Zhi generation cultivator stood out and said, "Senior Brother and Second Prince, leave quickly. I will block this person."
Zhi Chang said, "Be careful, Junior Brother."
The cultivator said, "Don't worry, Senior Brother."
Zhi Chang nodded. Even if the people of the Zhi generation could not defeat the opponent, they could still escape and their lives would not be in danger. Thus, he was not worried. He used his mana and once again rode the wind and clouds to escape.
However, the road ahead was clearly not smooth, and before he had gone far, there were people charging out to obstruct him. It was impossible for him to stop and face the enemy, so he could only send out his subordinates one by one to obstruct the enemy. In this way, layer after layer of obstructions, there were fewer and fewer people protecting him.
Zhi Chang's expression gradually became serious. He had no way of avoiding this kind of thing. Logically speaking, as long as he did not leave the range of the magic treasure above, there was no place that was safe. The only thing he could do now was to barely calculate under the restrictions and try to escape to the place that was most beneficial to him.
After a few more interceptions, there were only a few people left. Even Zhi Sheng stayed behind to block the enemy Just Now.
At this moment, he suddenly felt his Qi flow flow a little. His heart stirred. This was a sign that he was about to break free from the restriction of the magical equipment. As long as he put in a bit more effort to charge out, then the sky would be high and the sea would be wide, and he would be able to move unhindered as he pleased.
Just at this moment, they suddenly saw a grand and clear light descend, from within came a young Taoist, he bowed to them and said, "Forgetting Li Shan's sword holder, Wan Guang."
Zhi Chang's heart sank. He looked around and realized that he was probably the only one who could stop this person now. Fortunately, there were a few juniors who had decent skills and were at least on par with Zhi Quan. He could rest assured that they would continue to protect the Second Prince.
He said sternly, "Changling, Changhe, Changliang, the three of you will escort the Second Prince to his fief. If anything goes wrong, you don't have to come back to see me. "
The three Daoists behind him nodded and hurriedly left.
Wan Guang looked on indifferently and didn't try to stop them.
Zhi Chang turned around and said solemnly, "I will accompany you to the outer space."
Wan Guang nodded. Then, the two of them turned into a blur, and in an instant, they had left the mortal world and escaped into the outer space. ,
Changling, Changhe, and the others followed the path that Zhi Chang had pointed out Just Now. Not long after, everyone, including Hao Qiang, felt their bodies lighten, as if a heavy weight had been lifted. In front of them, the sky brightened, and the haze was gone. It was obvious that they had escaped from the magical equipment.
One of the servants said in surprise, "Your Highness, you have finally escaped.
Hao Qiang was also excited, but he didn't make a sound, because he could feel a pair of eyes staring at him.
As for Changling and the other two, they were still nervous. They knew that they were not out of danger yet, so they didn't dare to hesitate and tried to turn their mana. However, when they did this, they felt a strong force enveloping them, making it impossible for them to move and escape immediately.
The three of them turned to look and saw a middle-aged scholar with a Xiezhi crown on his head. His beard reached his chest, and he was walking in the air. Changling was shocked, "Left Imperial Censor Ying Kuang?"
They didn't expect that this person would make things difficult for them after they managed to deal with Quan Dao and Forgotten Li Mountain. This person had a Heavenly Talisman, and if he used it properly, not only would he not be weaker than Zhi Sheng and the others, he might even be stronger.
Changhe walked out and said with a serious expression, "Left Imperial Censor Zuo, please make way."
Ying Kuang looked at the three of them and said, "Leave Second Imperial Censor here, and I will let you go."
Hao Qiang panicked. He was more afraid of Ying Kuang than his brothers, so he said, "Elders …"
Changhe said, "Don't worry, Your Highness. Since we are under orders to protect you, we will not abandon you." He looked up and said in a low voice, "Left Imperial Censor Zuo, are you not afraid that Zique Mountain will punish you for your actions?"
Ying Kuang said expressionlessly, "There is no need to use Zique Mountain to pressure me. Since I am here, I do not care about such things. If you are not willing to leave, then I will have to do it myself!"
At this moment, in the Haoneng Camp of the Eleventh Imperial Prince, someone reported, "Your Highness, the Third Imperial Prince has sent someone to ask if Your Highness wants to enter the city with him, or do you want to discuss it elsewhere?"
Before Hao Qiang left, he had already dismissed all the conscripted soldiers. Once he left, the entire Small Chengyang Palace was like a palace city, and the next step was to determine the ownership of the city.
At this moment, an elder stood up and suggested, "Your Highness, the Small Chengyang Palace is the capital of the Xingtai Continent, and the essence of the continent is contained within it. This is the foundation of the King's business. If Your Highness can occupy it, your reputation will multiply, and the world will yearn for it."
Hao Qiang thought for a while and said, "Just let Third Brother enter the city, I will not go."
The elder panicked and advised, "Your Highness, you cannot back down here, and this is not the time to talk about brotherhood!"
Hao Qiang shook his head and said, "It is not that I want to back down, but the Small Chengyang Palace is different from other places. It is not a place that can be easily taken over. If I try to snatch it, it will only bring me a lot of trouble."
It was a place where the Heavenly Mother Goddess gathered, and it was a hot potato. If it was not handled well, it would attract many variables. Moreover, it was not the time to go against his Third Brother.
The elder continued to advise, "Your Highness, I understand Your Highness's concerns, but as a king, one must have the courage to conquer the world. How can you be afraid of a mere obstacle?"
How could Hao Qiang not understand this logic? However, he had a deeper consideration, and there were some things that he could not explain to his subordinates. These people did not know the reason and would naturally come to the opposite conclusion. He could only say, "There is no need to say anything more, I have made up my mind. However, if Third Brother wants me to give up, he should also give me some benefits. "
Seeing this, the elder could only sigh and retreat.
About an hour later, the Third Prince, Hao Chang, received the news.
"Just Now, the Eleventh Prince's messenger has arrived. He said that he has used up a lot of money and if Your Highness is willing to compensate, the Eleventh Prince is willing to give up and let Your Highness monopolize the Small Chengyang Palace."
Hao Chang said, "Oh? Did he really say that? "
One of the confidants was overjoyed. He stood up and bowed, saying, "Congratulations, Your Highness. It is only right for Your Highness to be the Lord of the Heavenly Court!"
Hao Chang looked at him and said, "Why do you say so?"
The confidant said, "The Eleventh Prince is greedy for small gains and forsakes the greater good. At this moment, he does not care about the hearts of the people in the world. Instead, he is fixated on small gains. He does not have the mindset of a ruler, so how can he compete with Your Highness!"
Hao Chang was delighted, but he did not show it on his face. He said, "Since my Eleventh Brother wants these, then give them to him."
The confidant said, "That's right, Your Highness. Not only must you give them, you must give them more, and let the world see."
Hao Chang acted quickly. After the order was given, an envoy immediately sent over all the items that the Eleventh Prince needed. Moreover, he even doubled the amount.
After Hao Ji received these, he did not keep any of them and rewarded them all. This caused everyone in the army to rejoice.
The elder smiled bitterly and shook his head, sighing, "The Third Prince's intentions are unfathomable. This way, everyone in the world will know about this. Unless Your Highness forsakes morality, it will be hard for you to compete with him for this place."
Hao Ji saw that this matter was settled. After everything was settled, he prepared to leave. The subordinate asked, "Your Highness, are you going back to the Country of Law?"
Hao Ji said, "Chen Tai City was conquered by me. Since the Small Chengyang Palace has been given to the Third Brother, how can I give this place away?"
The elder who made the suggestion sighed. The Eleventh Prince had missed a great opportunity by abandoning the Little Chengyang Palace. However, he had placed so much importance on a place that did not affect the overall situation. He was really neglecting the essentials.
The Third Prince, Hao Chang, saw that the Eleventh Prince left without hesitation. He felt a sense of relief. When he heard that the Eleventh Prince had retreated to Chen Tai City, he did not move anymore, as if he did not want to give up all his gains. After hearing this, he was not angry. Instead, he thought to himself, It seems like the Eleventh Prince's Armament Strategy is only so-so. I originally thought of him as an opponent, but now it seems like he is just so-so.
However, he did not plan to fight with the Eleventh Prince immediately. This was because the Second Prince was not dead yet, and their common enemy was not gone. It was not a good time to fight. Moreover, even if there was a result, he could try to get Quan Dao to discuss with the Forgotten Li Mountain again. If they could come to an agreement, then there would be no need to fight anymore.
On that day, Hao Chang entered the Little Chengyang Palace under the escort of the crowd. After he took control of the place, he called for one of his trusted subordinates but did not say a word.
The confidant understood tacitly and said, "Your Highness, this subordinate already knows what to do."
Hao Chang did not say anything. He stood up and turned to leave.
After the confidant sent him off respectfully, he stood up and looked for the head of the maids. He said, "When we attacked the city, the celestials in the palace had gathered troops to help us. Now that Your Highness is here, who knows if they will have other thoughts? Bring your men and kill them all. "
The head servant said, "Minister, before the Second Prince left, he had already dismissed his private soldiers. Moreover, most of them have expressed their willingness to follow the Third Prince's orders …"
The confidant interrupted him and said with hatred, "It is hard to tell whether they are sincere or just waiting for an opportunity. Moreover, they are not willing to pay the tribute. It is obvious that they are still loyal to the Second Prince. We can't stay here and cause trouble! Do you understand? "
The head servant felt cold sweat on his back. He knew that once he did this, he would not be able to escape the punishment of the Heavenly Mother. However, there was no way he could refuse now. He gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, Your Highness!"
