Swish!
Ning Yue stomped on the ground and instantly arrived beside the Dark Emperor.
First, he pulled the Dark Emperor out from the wall. Then, Ning Yue's soul force quietly entered the Dark Emperor's body and carefully checked his injuries.
After a while, Ning Yue withdrew his soul force from the Dark Emperor's body.
"You're … His Majesty's man?" Ning Yue asked the black-clothed martial artist beside Ouyang Hai.
"Elder Tan, you've been here for a long time?!"
Looking at the familiar figure in front of him, the shock in Ouyang Hai's eyes was especially obvious.
"Why didn't you stop that dog the first time he attacked me?!" Ouyang Hai's chest was heaving up and down, on the verge of exploding.
Elder Tan was the pinnacle expert behind him.
The reason why he could become a favorable contender for the crown prince position was mainly because of Elder Tan, a Yin Yang Realm martial artist!
Without Elder Tan's support, he wouldn't even be worth a fart among the princes.
"Third Prince, please watch your words."
The black-clothed martial artist called Elder Tan said indifferently, "Since you want to know the reason, I'll tell you."
"You're out."
As Elder Tan's voice fell, Ouyang Hai's heart skipped a beat.
Out?
What did Elder Tan mean?!
Swish!
Suddenly, Ouyang Hai seemed to have thought of something and revealed an expression of disbelief, "Elder Tan, you said I'm out? Whose intention is this?! "
"Third Prince, don't you understand?" Elder Tan said, "This is His Majesty's intention."
"His Majesty's intention, His Majesty's intention, hahaha, Imperial Father's intention?!"
Laughing out loud, Ouyang Hai's expression turned cold as he said gloomily, "This is impossible! Firstly, I didn't make any mistakes, and secondly, I didn't do anything out of line. What right does Imperial Father have to declare me out? "
"From the moment His Majesty said you're out, you're already out. This is an indisputable fact, and no one can change it." Taking a deep breath, Elder Tan said, "His Majesty has decided to transfer you to West Mountain City."
"West Mountain City? Hahaha! "
Ouyang Hai seemed to have gone mad as he suddenly laughed out loud.
The Western Mountain City was the most desolate city in the Great Xia Kingdom, and it was extremely far from the capital.
Throughout the dynasties, West Mountain City had always been the destination of some frustrated princes.
At the same time, Western Mountain City was also the most chaotic place, because the powers there were complicated. Without the protection of experts, going there would be no different from courting death.
After a short burst of laughter, Ouyang Hai still considered his own safety, "Elder Tan, can I bring a few people over?"
"Of course. You should prepare for the next three days. Three days later, someone will follow you to Xishan City." Old Tan said.
"Can you tell me what level the expert is at?" Ouyang Hai asked.
After thinking about it, Old Tan walked straight to Ouyang Hai's side and whispered a few words in his ear.
"What?!"
Ouyang Hai jumped up and glanced at Ning Yue from the corner of his eyes.
"Letting him go to Western Mountain City with me is no different from sending me to my death!" Ouyang Hai said coldly: "I want to see royal father, I want to tell royal father personally!"
"Third Prince, this is your chance."
Old Tan whispered to Ouyang Hai, "You better prepare for the next three days. As long as you can join forces with him and gain a firm foothold in Western Mountain City within a month, then this Crown Prince position …"
Speaking until here, Old Tan patted on Ouyang Hai's shoulder and didn't continue.
Taking a deep breath, Ouyang Hai fiercely glared at Ning Yue. Shortly after, he rose from the ground and disappeared.
With only three days, Ouyang Hai had to arrange everything properly. At the very least, he had to get his forces into Western Mountain City!
The Western Mountain City might be in chaos internally, but they were still a solid block to the outside world.
If he wanted to get his forces in, three days was indeed rather tight, and Ouyang Hai naturally didn't want to waste any of it.
From Ouyang Hai's appearance to his departure, Ning Yue always felt that something was amiss.
It was as though there was a pair of large hands controlling everything.
"Keke, little friend Ning Yue, the Emperor has invited you. I wonder if you will give him face?"
Just as Ning Yue was letting his imagination run wild, Old Tan's voice rang in his ears.
"Since the Emperor invited me, logically speaking, I will definitely go, but …"
As he spoke, Ning Yue suddenly changed the topic and said, "I have something to do today and tomorrow, so I might not have the time."
Ning Yue's words once again caused an uproar at the scene.
If Ouyang Hai's invitation was a little rash, and Ning Yue couldn't be blamed for rejecting him, then Old Tan's invitation was very sincere.
Old Tan himself was a Yin-Yang Realm expert. Him coming out personally could be said to be giving Ning Yue enough face.
"Is Ning Yue stupid? Why wouldn't he agree to such a good thing?"
"You're asking me?"
"Yeah, of course I'm asking you."
"How the hell would I know if you're asking me?! I'm not a roundworm in Ning Yue's stomach. "
"Uh …"
Old Tan seemed to have guessed that Ning Yue would reject him.
He smiled and said, "It's fine. The time will be the day after tomorrow, and the venue will be at Tianyuan Tower."
"Tianyuan Tower!"
He was extremely shocked when he found out that the Emperor was going to choose Tianyuan Tower as the venue.
Tianyuan Tower was the sixth prince's territory, so it was impossible for the emperor not to know. Since he chose Tianyuan Tower as the venue, could it be that the sixth prince was already the crown prince?!
He could not help but tremble when he thought about it.
Nevertheless, he was very shrewd, so he quickly hid it.
"Old fox, are you trying to use me as a weapon?"
Ning Yue secretly became cautious. After all, the fact that the emperor could control the massive Big Xia Kingdom was enough to prove that the current emperor was smart.
At the very least, given Ou Yangming's current cultivation base and strength, it was not enough to fight the emperor.
It was very likely that the emperor did not treat him as an opponent and only treated him as a chess piece.
"The day after tomorrow, Tianyuan Tower. See you there." Ning Yue suddenly smiled.
Before he completely grew up, Ning Yue knew that he had to restrain himself.
However, he also became extremely careful.
After all, he was involved in the change of the imperial family. A slight mistake would cause him to be doomed eternally!
"Great! Straightforward indeed! You're bold. The future belongs to young people with drive like you. We're already old. "
Swoosh!
As soon as he finished speaking, Elder Tan's figure also turned illusory. In the end, he completely disappeared.
"There's a new variable in the crown prince contest. Quickly go back and inform the master!"
"Yes, quickly go back. After this incident, there might be more princes emerging."
"No matter what, the first prince and the sixth prince are still the most promising candidates for the crown prince contest."
"We're only responsible for delivering the message. As for who we should support, it will be up to the clan's great ancestor."
"…"
After Elder Tan disappeared, the hidden powerhouses left one after another.
Among the hidden powerhouses, more than half of them took orders from the capital's second-rate and third-rate clans.
These people's clans were fence-sitters who leaned towards both sides.
The other half were neutral forces. These forces did not help or care about anyone.
