The Evil Sky Pavilion's great hall was silent.
Lu Zhou's words shocked the others.
How could such a cowardly, glib-tongued, and eccentric person be Great Yan's Third Prince?
Which part of him looked like a member of the royal family?
Is Shifu blind from old age?
The disciples all had their own thoughts, but none of them dared to voice them out.
Jiang Aijian was stunned for a moment before he said, "You must be joking, old senior. How can I be the Third Prince?"
Lu Zhou did not expect Ye Tianxin to admit it. Instead, he said indifferently, "My rascal disciple, Ye Tianxin, spent five years investigating the palace's files, and the mastermind she found was me. But you, a rogue cultivator, how did you do it? "
"I told you, I have friends in the palace," Jiang Aijian said.
"What kind of friend is capable of handling such a confidential matter?" This time, it was not Lu Zhou who spoke. It was Hua Wudao who had just entered the great hall.
“”
Jiang Aijian was speechless.
Hua Wudao said, "Greetings, Your Highness."
Hua Wudao was from the Yun Clan after all, so he could not get rid of the formalities.
No one knew what was wrong with Jiang Aijian's brain, but he replied in all seriousness, "You may dispense with the formalities."
Realizing that he had said something wrong, he immediately slapped his thigh and said, "It's a misunderstanding. It's all a misunderstanding, okay?"
Hua Wudao straightened his back respectfully.
Lu Zhou nodded and said, "I have plenty of time. I'm not afraid of you denying it."
Jiang Aijian sighed and said, "I've worked so hard to deliver the news to the Evil Sky Pavilion. Old senior, I feel wronged by your actions."
Mingshi Yin said, "That's right.
"Enough with the nonsense. Since you're a prince, the obstacles the Evil Sky Pavilion eliminates are your obstacles as well."
This was equivalent to using the Evil Sky Pavilion.
Who would have the guts to do that?
Even the Sect Master of the Nether Sect, Yu Zhenghai, did not dare to use the Evil Sky Pavilion when he wanted to expand his territory.
Jiang Aijian hastily waved his hands and said, "I've been wrongly accused. I've told the old senior that I hate the scheming and deceiving people in the palace. Therefore, I left the palace. The disputes and disputes within the palace. No matter how many obstacles Elder removes, I can no longer return to being a prince. "
Hua Wudao said,
"Your Highness, then why do you keep in touch with the palace?"
Speaking of this.
Jiang Aijian sighed again. "Although I'm a prince, I have some close friends. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but I really yearn for the life of an ordinary person. Alas, it was extremely difficult to stay out of trouble in Great Yan. I could only change my name to Jiang Aijian and become a free rogue cultivator. "
"The three Sword Fanatics are all in the Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm. Your Highness is a lone cultivator, yet you have such a cultivation level. It's truly admirable, "Hua Wudao said respectfully.
"It's just an empty reputation," Jiang Aijian said.
"Well said," Lu Zhou said calmly, "If you have no ulterior motives, why did you betray your brother?"
Jiang Aijian was stunned.
The mastermind behind the Fish Dragon Village is the Second Prince, and you are the Third Prince. Not only did you not protect your own brother, you even stabbed him in the back. Who would believe that you have no selfish motives?
Everyone's eyes were focused on him.
The scene in front of him was like a court where a criminal was being interrogated.
He, Jiang Aijian, was the main character of this trial.
Jiang Aijian sighed and said, "The most fickle people under the heavens are the princes."
Within the palace walls, other than etiquette and rules, there was only power and status. Where was the so-called kinship to speak of?
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and said, "Back to the topic at hand. Do you know why I'm investigating the Fish Dragon Village?"
"For your sixth disciple?" Jiang Aijian asked, puzzled.
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "That's not all. Do you know Ding Fanqiu?"
Hua Wudao frowned when he heard Ding Fanqiu's name. He said, "Ding Fanqiu is from the Yun Sect."
As soon as Mingshi Yin finished speaking, Mingshi Yin said,
"Elder Hua, please be mindful of your current status and the way you speak. Ding Fanqiu has impersonated my master and committed crimes everywhere he went. He's tarnished the reputation of my master and the Evil Sky Pavilion. According to our rules, he should've been thrown into the back of the mountain and chopped into pieces to feed the wild beasts."
Hua Wudao blushed.
When he first joined the Evil Sky Pavilion, he had already resigned from his position as an elder of the Yun Sect.
"I've heard of it," Jiang Aijian replied honestly.
"Ding Fanqiu has told me that Measure Heaven River's Fish Dragon Village's true objective is to search for a unique bone," Lu Zhou said indifferently.
"Is that so?" Jiang Aijian scratched his head.
"Jiang Aijian, do you think I'm easily fooled?" Lu Zhou stared at Jiang Aijian with his cloudy eyes. Jiang Aijian felt awkward and at a loss for what to do.
"Old senior, since you already know, why bother asking?" Jiang Aijian asked.
This was tantamount to admitting it.
"For the past ten years, the palace has been fishing up corpses from Measure Heaven River. What do you think?" Lu Zhou asked.
"I didn't find anything."
"What are special bones?" Lu Zhou asked again.
"This …"
Jiang Aijian looked around.
He seemed to be very concerned that there were so many people watching and listening.
Lu Zhou said nonchalantly, "You should know that at this point, there's no point in hiding it."
Jiang Aijian cupped his fists at Lu Zhou.
"There's no need for me to lie to you. To be honest, I've been away from the palace for so many years that I'm afraid many people have forgotten about me. Most of his friends in the palace were probably gone as well. After a few more years, perhaps there will no longer be a Third Prince in this world. "
Jiang Aijian said, "Two people were hacked to death while investigating the matter at Measure Heaven River. Naturally, it's their fault for not being skilled enough. They can't blame others for that, "Jiang Aijian said.
The great hall fell silent.
Jiang Aijian said again, "Second Brother is cruel. He's not fit to be the ruler of this nation."
"I believe you," Lu Zhou said.
"Thank you, old senior."
"Jiang Aijian, in your opinion, do you think that special bone belongs to the Bai people?" Lu Zhou asked calmly.
"Bai people?"
Jiang Aijian shook his head. "There's a rumor in the palace that the bones of the Bai people can break through the great limit of one's life. However, I don't think so. If that's the case, what's the point of fishing for the past ten years? "
They had fished out many Bai people's bones in the past ten years, but nobody had succeeded. It was clear that the Bai people's bones could break through the great limit of one's life. Therefore, the focus of fishing for the past ten years might have shifted from the bones of the Bai people to something else.
Jiang Aijian said, "Old senior, I've said what I need to say. Indeed, I'm being selfish. I can give up on this good sword, "Jiang Aijian said.
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "I've said it before. I hate people who don't keep their promises. Since I've made a promise, I'll fulfill my promise. "
At this moment, Lu Zhou raised his hand slowly.
He waved it lightly.
With a weak surge of energy, the black object flew toward Jiang Aijian.
