As time went by, the Kunlun Mystery Land was about to end.
Two young eunuchs walked over and struggled to open the gate of the Kunlun Mystery Land. A group of warriors staggered out.
However, everyone's eyes widened. The Human Emperor's Sword was not in the hands of any of the princes. Instead, it was in Su Xin's hands. This stunned everyone.
Didn't Su Xin not participate in the battle for the throne? How did he get the Human Emperor's Sword?
The next scene made everyone's eyes widen. Juechen and the other monks from Shaolin Temple surrounded Su Xin with bloodshot eyes. They looked like they wanted to eat him alive.
This time, in the Kunlun Mystic Realm, the Shaolin Temple could be said to have suffered a double loss. Jueyan died there, and Jueming's Silent Meditation was broken. Most importantly, they did not manage to snatch the Human Sovereign's Sword despite all their efforts.
Seeing them like this, everyone present felt a little strange. The Kunlun Mystery Land was already over. What did Su Xin do to make everyone from Shaolin Temple gnash their teeth in hatred?
Seeing them like this, Xuan Tong immediately stood up to stop them.
It was fine if they failed to get the Human Emperor's Sword, but they were in Shengjing City. If they attacked Su Xin in front of everyone, the imperial court would not ignore it.
"All of you, stop! The Kunlun Mystery Land is already over. What else do you want? " Xuan Tong scolded them, reminding them of the current situation and where they were.
Juechen said with bloodshot eyes, "Chief! Su Xin killed Senior Brother Juechen! "
As soon as this was said, everyone present was in an uproar. Everyone looked at Su Xin with shock and disbelief.
They were shocked because Su Xin was really bold. He killed a Divine Transformation Realm warrior from Shaolin Temple just like that. Moreover, he did it right under the nose of the Chief of Prajna Hall.
At the same time, they could not believe that Su Xin could really kill Juechen.
How many years had it been since Juechen broke through to the Divine Transformation Realm? It had been more than ten years, while Su Xin had only been for a little more than a year.
Moreover, Jue Yan's reputation as the Evil Monk was not for nothing. Even though he had been training in isolation in the Shaolin Temple all these years, no one knew how strong he was. Although Jue Yan's strength had not reached its peak before, he was still considered an expert among those in the Divine Transformation Realm, let alone now.
Compared to others, Xuan Tong was more aware of Jue Yan's importance. Knowing that Jue Yan had been killed by Su Xin, Xuan Tong's body immediately revealed a dense killing intent. He knew that this matter would not end so easily!
When Su Xin brought people to the inn to cause trouble for their Shaolin Temple, in the end, the Evil Spirit Taoist was killed by Su Xin, and their Shaolin Temple suffered a loss. At that time, Xuan Tong was somewhat restless.
Warriors in the Harmonious Soul Realm were powerful, and they would have some strange feelings about certain things about themselves. This was not a divination of the heavens, but a sudden impulse.
Xuan Tong originally thought that he was worried about whether Shaolin Temple could snatch the Human Emperor's Sword, but now it seemed that his restlessness was because of Su Xin!
This person's ruthlessness and vengeance were beyond Xuan Tong's imagination. He actually killed Jue Yan, and dared to do so in this situation.
Sensing Xuan Tong's killing intent, Su Xin smiled, not minding it at all.
This was Shengjing City, the palace. Even if Xuan Tong was extremely angry, he could not kill him.
Sure enough, the moment Xuan Tong released his killing intent, Tie Zhan, the three Divine Arresters, Tang Xian, the people from the military, and the experts of the royal family who were hiding in the dark to protect Ji Haodian all released their auras.
About ten Harmonious God Realm experts directly suppressed the killing intent released by Xuan Tong, causing him to groan and sit down on the ground.
Xuan Tong chanted the name of Buddha and said coldly, "Come back!"
Although Jue Chen and the others were unwilling, they knew where they were. They could only retreat and leave with Xuan Tong.
There was no need to continue watching. Their Shaolin Temple had suffered heavy losses, and the Human Emperor's Sword was obtained by Su Xin. He definitely would not hand it over to Ji Yanheng, who had the support of Shaolin Temple. Since that was the case, what was the point of them staying here?
Xuan Tong was afraid that he would not be able to control himself and kill Su Xin.
The people of Shaolin Temple left, but everyone's eyes were on Su Xin.
The one holding the Human Emperor's Sword was Su Xin. It could be said that whoever Su Xin handed over the Human Emperor's Sword would be the crown prince of the Zhou Kingdom.
Tang Xian said loudly, "The Human Emperor's Sword was not taken by any of the princes, but it was taken by Lord Su, Su Xin. Now, I would like to ask Lord Su, which prince do you support? Who do you want to give the Human Emperor's Sword to?"
Among the princes, other than Ji Yanheng, who had completely given up, the remaining four were looking at the Human Emperor's Sword in Su Xin's hand with longing eyes.
However, at this time, they could only use their eyes to express their desire. They did not dare to promise all kinds of benefits to Su Xin like they did in the Kunlun Secret Realm. This was a taboo.
Everyone knew very well how Ji Yanheng had been removed from the position of crown prince. He had said something that he shouldn't have said and touched Ji Haodian's reverse scale.
With such a precedent, they didn't dare to say such taboo words again.
Feeling the gazes of the others, Su Xin smiled and walked directly to Ji Haodian. He held up the sword and said, "I, Su Xin, am a subject of the Zhou Kingdom. I am only loyal to His Majesty. His Majesty naturally has the final say on who should be the crown prince."
Everyone present was stunned. What did Su Xin mean? Did he want to directly offend all the princes of the Zhou Kingdom?
If you gave the Human Emperor's Sword to any prince, he would definitely be grateful to you, Su Xin.
Although this would make the other princes hate him, at least Su Xin would have the protection of a prince.
In the end, Su Xin did not give it to anyone. This made the princes present feel resentful. Why did he have to do this?
Sure enough, after seeing Su Xin give the sword to Ji Haodian, all the princes' faces darkened. They cursed at Su Xin in their hearts.
This Su Xin was simply harming others without benefiting himself. If you don't want the Human Emperor's Sword, why don't you give it to us?
However, at this moment, Ji Haodian let out a loud laugh. This made everyone's hearts tighten. They quickly turned their attention to Ji Haodian.
"Go, bring the sword over," Ji Haodian said, pointing at the Human Emperor's Sword.
Tang Xian nodded. He did not look surprised at all. He took the Human Emperor's Sword from Su Xin's hand to Ji Haodian.
Touching the Human Emperor's Sword, Ji Haodian looked at the princes present and said softly, "You all want it very much, don't you?"
The five princes present all lowered their heads. They did not know what their father, the Emperor, meant, so they did not say anything. However, in their hearts, they thought, This is the Human Emperor's Sword that represents the position of Crown Prince. Who wouldn't want it?
Ji Haodian sneered. However, he suddenly threw the Human Emperor's Sword that represented the position of Crown Prince to the ground, making a crisp sound.
"What you all want is not this, but my throne, am I right?"
Ji Haodian looked coldly at his sons and said sternly, "I can't sit on this throne forever. It will definitely be yours in the future.
However, this throne is yours only if I give it to you. If I don't give it to you, you can't snatch it from me! "
Ji Haodian pointed at his own nose and said, "I know that I don't have long to live, but I am still alive. Are you all so impatient?
Haha, Qingcheng sword school, Shaolin Temple, Seven Heroes Association. My sons sure have some tricks up their sleeves. In just a few years, they have befriended so many sects in the pugilistic world.
If I live a little longer, will you all bring the powers behind you to kill your way into the inner palace and pull me down from this throne? Am I right?! "
The princes immediately broke out in cold sweat. With a plop, they hurriedly knelt down. Their faces were pale, and they were sweating non-stop.
"Forgive me, Father! I don't dare! "
At this moment, everyone understood. Ji Yancheng, who didn't like to use his brain, understood. Ji Yanhao, who was always scheming, also understood. What fight for the position of Crown Prince? This was all a trap!
Ji Yanheng was crippled by Ji Haodian because he violated a taboo.
They even secretly scolded Ji Yanheng for being an idiot. At the same time, because they had learned their lesson, they were very careful when they spoke in front of their father.
However, what they didn't know was that their actions in fighting for the position of Crown Prince had already violated Ji Haodian's taboo!
Just as Ji Haodian said, he wouldn't be able to sit on this throne for long. It would eventually be theirs.
However, the problem was that as long as Ji Haodian was still in this position, he wouldn't allow anyone else to touch it.
I can give you the position of Crown Prince, but you can't fight for it, nor can you steal it. It can only be given to you by me!
Seeing Ji Yanheng being crippled, their thoughts became active. From secretly cultivating their powers before, to openly roping in the dukes and marquises of the Zhou Kingdom and colluding with the sects of the Jianghu.
Ji Haodian didn't care about these things. He didn't want to care either. He just wanted to see how bold his sons were and what they wanted to do!
However, in the eyes of these princes, Ji Haodian's actions were tacit approval and indulgence. Therefore, they acted even more unscrupulously.
However, they didn't know that everything they did was challenging Ji Haodian's bottom line. The more they danced, the more Ji Haodian disliked them.
In fact, this fight in the Kunlun Mystic Realm was the last chance Ji Haodian gave them.
If someone came to the palace to find him and voluntarily gave up the fight for the position of Crown Prince, Ji Haodian would give him another chance.
However, when they heard this news, all the princes excitedly prepared for the fight in the Kunlun Mystic Realm. No one voluntarily gave up, which made Ji Haodian exceptionally disappointed.
Therefore, the fight for the position of Crown Prince had become a trap, a trap specially prepared for them.
All the princes' power had been exposed in front of Ji Haodian. Moreover, after this fight in the Kunlun Mystic Realm, their own strength would be greatly damaged. The martial arts sects behind them would be even less likely to support them. Their strength would even fall to the point where they were inferior to some ordinary princes.
When they thought of this, the princes couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
