Ye Xiao's choice was within Chu Xiu's expectations. Although the competition in the Zhenwu Hall was high, there were also the most opportunities.
However, Ye Xiao still needed to temporarily hide his appearance and identity, at least for the time being.
Otherwise, if the Chunyang Dao Sect and the Great Light Temple knew that they had been fooled, they would definitely go crazy.
Of course, the Chunyang Dao Sect and the Great Light Temple were still going crazy, and they were fighting fiercely.
Mako Mori was still strong despite his old age. He managed to severely injure the two Jing generation monks of the Great Light Temple by himself.
However, Xi Yunzi was at a disadvantage.
With the Pure Yang Divine Weapon, Xi Yunzi's strength was enough to fight against ordinary martial artists in the True Fire Spiritual Refinement Realm.
However, the problem was that Xu Yan was not normal. He was the First Seat of the Great Light Temple's Martial Arts Academy. Even though he had only just entered the True Fire Spiritual Refinement Realm, his abilities were not something an ordinary martial artist could compare to. Therefore, Xi Yunzi had suffered quite a bit of damage.
In general, the Chunyang Dao Sect was at a disadvantage in this battle. After all, they had fewer people.
After this battle, both sides were in a situation where both sides were heavily injured. Basically, no one could cause trouble for Chu Xiu anymore, unless the Temple of Great Light or the Pure Yang Taoist Sect sent another group of people to Northern Yan.
However, such a situation was not very possible. A branch was ultimately a branch. The two lineages of Daoism and Buddhism did not come to Northern Yan to fight to the death with Chu Xiu, nor did they come to fight to the death with Chu Xiu. For the sake of a branch, they had to bet the might of the entire sect and go all out. The leaders of Daoism and Buddhism would not be so impulsive.
The Taoist and Buddhist sects finally calmed down, and Chu Xiu finally heaved a sigh of relief.
The Great Light Temple and the Chunyang Dao Sect were just small troubles caused by Xiang Long. The real trouble was still the ownership of the throne after Xiang Long's death.
With Xiang Chong's character, if he were to ascend to the throne, Chu Xiu would inevitably fall out with him. Although he might not lose, if he were to fight against the Northern Yan court, the foundation of Chu Xiu's Zhenwu Hall would be completely destroyed.
In the Northern Yan Imperial Palace, Xiang Long was at the end of his rope.
Previously, Xiang Long could still stand with the help of others, but in the past month, it was difficult for him to even stand up.
Xiang Chong stood by Xiang Long's bed with a complicated expression on his face.
It was true that he deeply hated Xiang Long, but Xiang Long was still his elder brother. Xiang Chong's heart ached when he saw Xiang Long looking as if he was going to die at any moment.
Xiang Long lay on the bed and asked weakly, "What's the situation outside now?"
His eyes stared straight at the ceiling. In fact, Xiang Long's eyes could no longer see anything.
Xiang Chong said, "The Zhenwu Hall and the Taoist and Buddhist lineages have been in constant conflict with each other. The Taoist and Buddhist lineages had just had a big battle. It was a relatively fierce conflict, and both sides suffered losses."
"What about the Zhenwu Hall?"
Xiang Chong said, "The Taoist and Buddhist lineages had a fierce battle because of their disciples. The Zhenwu Hall did not participate in it."
"What a pity."
Xiang Long sighed. If the Zhenwu Hall could also participate in it, it would be perfect if all three sides suffered losses in the end.
"By the way, how is Xiang Chong now?"
Although Xiang Long said to the outside world that he had no selfish motives in making Xiang Chong the Crown Prince, he loved Xiang Chong the most among all the princes.
If it were not for Xiang Chong's age, he would have become the Crown Prince long ago. Therefore, even if Xiang Long could not hold on any longer, he still wanted to protect his chosen successor one last time.
Xiang Chong hesitated for a moment and said, "He's fine. The power under his command has now far surpassed Xiang Li. It's just that his desire for power is too strong, and he likes to use Jianghu people. "
Xiang Chong had already beautified Xiang Chong's actions countless times before saying this.
Looking at Xiang Long's state, it was obvious that he would not live for long. Asking Xiang Long to replace the Crown Prince at this time was not a good thing for the Northern Yan. It could easily cause unrest in the Northern Yan court.
Moreover, looking at Xiang Long's state, Xiang Chong could not bear to say too many bad things about Xiang Chong.
Therefore, when Xiang Long heard this, he only smiled weakly and said, "Desire for power? A person without a strong desire for power cannot become an emperor.
As for using Jianghu people, this is not a bad thing. Didn't I also use Jianghu people?
The Jianghu and the court are not clear. Instead of rejecting and suppressing them, it is better to make use of them.
Chong is still too young and may not be able to do well in some areas. Therefore, he still needs the elders of the Northern Yan Royal Family to help him. "
Xiang Chong nodded with a slightly dark expression.
He was too embarrassed to tell Xiang Chong that he could not control his son. Last time, he had gone to teach him a lesson, but Xiang Chong had turned a deaf ear to it, clearly not taking it to heart.
At this time, Xiang Chong was indeed a little too full of himself. With so many experts under his command, he did not think that he needed the help of these so-called elders like Xiang Chong.
Why did they not come to help him when he was not the Crown Prince?
In contrast to Xiang Chong's arrogance, his subordinate Lin Fengyu was very anxious. The stronger Xiang Chong's subordinates were, the more anxious he became.
This was because Taoist Wuyang had brought these powers to Xiang Chong, and he was being valued less and less.
Previously, Lin Fengyu and Taoist Wuyang had been regarded as the Crown Prince's right-hand man. But now, the gap between the two was becoming more and more obvious. Even outsiders could see this.
After all, Taoist Wuyang was the one who had brought so many experts to Xiang Chong's side. He had also helped Xiang Chong solve quite a few troublesome problems.
As for Lin Fengyu, besides a woman who lived off women, what else did he have? He was simply a good-for-nothing.
This situation made Lin Fengyu, who had always been motivated to follow Xiang Chong to achieve great things and become a minister, very anxious.
Seeing Lin Fengyu's appearance, Li Jiaodi could not help but say in a gentle voice, "Yulang, don't worry about these things. You're just a dog of the imperial court. Don't be one. Follow me back to the Hidden Devil Clan. At worst, I'll personally beg Wei Shuya, Qin Chaoxian, and the others to let you establish a sect in the Hidden Devil Clan. When the time comes, wouldn't it be great to be the Sect Master yourself? "
If other members of the Hidden Devil Clan saw Li Jiaodi's appearance, their eyeballs would definitely pop out of their sockets.
Among the Hidden Devil Clan, Li Jiaodi was definitely the most dislikable one.
For example, Yuan Tianfang, who had been killed by Chu Xiu, was also extreme and dislikable. But at least in a situation where there was no conflict of interest, Yuan Tianfang would not provoke others.
But Li Jiaodi was famous for her sharp and unkind words. Even if it was a normal conversation, she could cause a bellyful of anger.
But everyone knew her character. It was not worth it to be serious with her. But if you endured it, you would still be angry in your heart.
So in this way, not many people were willing to deal with her.
No one had seen such a gentle way of speaking from Li Jiaodi. It was enough to show how great the power of love was.
Lin Fengyu said somewhat impatiently, "What do you know? Those who are below one and above tens of thousands are not the dogs of the imperial court, but the nobles! If I go to the Hidden Devil Clan as a local rat, I might be targeted and annihilated by those righteous sects. I won't go. "
After saying that, Lin Fengyu also felt that his words were a bit harsh. He quickly changed his tone and said, "I didn't mean that. It's just that I've been with His Highness for so many years. In the end, when His Highness is about to ascend the throne, I'm going to be kicked out. I'm unwilling! "
At this point, Lin Fengyu suddenly raised his head and said, "Say, if I help His Highness seize a part of the power of the Zhenwu Hall, will His Highness be happy? I've heard His Highness scolding Chu Xiu for not knowing how to appreciate favors. "
Lin Fengyu did not do this on a whim. He relied on his own 'scheming' to deduce this.
The existence of the Zhenwu Hall was first feared by Xiang Long. Then, Chu Xiu rejected Xiang Chong's recruitment. This Chu Xiu had clearly parted ways with the Xiang royal family.
Of course, he did not have the ability to destroy the Zhenwu Hall, nor did he dare to think about it. But it was still possible to take advantage of the battle between the Taoist, Buddhist, and Demon branches to take advantage of the Zhenwu Hall. The main thing was to gain Xiang Chong's favor.
Li Jiaodi's expression changed slightly. She said in a slightly serious tone, "Yulang, if you go and provoke others, I can help you block them. But don't provoke Chu Xiu."
Li Jiaodi had been in Jianghu for a long time. Most of the time, she was a big shot in the Yinmo branch. She was treated respectfully by many of the younger disciples of the Yinmo branch. Therefore, Li Jiaodi was very arrogant and fearless.
In the Yinmo branch, Li Jiaodi had never been afraid of Wei Shuya, who was extremely senior, or Ren Qianqiu, who held the Phaseless Demon Sect, a first-rate Demon Path power.
But the last time in the ancestral land of the Black Sky Demon Sect, Li Jiaodi was really afraid.
She was not afraid of being beaten by Chu Xiu. She was afraid of Chu Xiu's attitude. That kind of attitude where he had no scruples and really dared to kill her!
Previously, Li Jiaodi had offended many people because of her foul mouth. But no matter who it was, no one had any killing intent towards her.
But the last time in the Black Sky Demon Sect, she was sure that Chu Xiu really dared to kill her and was really prepared to kill her!
If Li Jiaodi did not have the secret technique of the Red Lotus Demon Lord, Red Lotus Escape, she might have already died in the hands of Chu Xiu.
Therefore, in Li Jiaodi's view, Chu Xiu was an out-and-out madman. He did not care what status you had or what scruples you had. He would directly kill you first.
Facing such a person, you either had to kill him or not provoke him.
It could be said that if it was not because of Lin Fengyu, the power of love was too great. Li Jiaodi did not want to appear in front of Chu Xiu again in this life.
Hearing Li Jiaodi's words, a strange look flashed in Lin Fengyu's eyes. He nodded and said, "Don't worry, I know the severity of the matter. I will not easily provoke that guy Chu Xiu."
Li Jiaodi nodded with a peace of mind. Unfortunately, she did not know that a man's promise was often the most unreliable. She had suffered losses when she was young, but now, she still did not learn from it.
