Six Unification realm warriors of the Ye Family were slaughtered in a single night?
The next day, all the major powers that received the news were guessing who was behind this.
After much thought, everyone's suspicions were all pointed at Long Ao.
The reason was very simple. Before Long Ao had entered Flame City, everything had been peaceful. However, when Long Ao had just stepped into Flame City, before even a night had passed, something like this had happened.
The experts of the Ye Family were all slaughtered. The other two families, the Wei Family and the Linghu Family, were extremely excited. However, due to the current situation, they couldn't suppress the Ye Family.
Long Ao's sudden entry into Flame City could be said to have caused a storm in Flame City.
A person who was able to kill six Consolidation realm martial artists without anyone noticing, it was easy to guess what kind of person the other party was. Everyone knew even more clearly in their hearts that the person who killed Ye Yidao most likely had improved his strength again.
The Flame Imperial Family didn't make a sound. The Wei Family and the Linghu Family naturally didn't make a sound either.
As for the Ye family, they could only suffer in silence. It was precisely because of this that the matter of the Ye family's six Consolidation realm warriors being killed was like a stone sinking into the sea, disappearing without a trace.
The next day, Dongfang Suo personally visited.
"Prince Dongfang, are you looking for me?"
In such a large restaurant, there were only Long Ao and Dongfang Suo. After all, Dongfang Suo's position in Flame City wasn't something an ordinary person could match. If there were no accidents, Dongfang Suo would definitely be the next Emperor of the Flame Empire.
"Brother Long, these should be the herbs you wanted. There are a total of twenty-five types. See if you're missing anything."
Looking at the densely packed herbs on the ground, how could Long Ao, as an alchemist, not recognize them?
"Prince Dongfang, I already said that I was only joking yesterday."
Smiling, Dongfang Suo said, "Brother Long, I wasn't joking. Take these herbs as a gift from me. Don't worry, I won't ask you to return this favor."
Dongfang Suo's words seemed to be joking, but there was a hidden meaning in them.
Long Ao wasn't a fool. Of course, he could understand the meaning in his words. However, since things had already reached this stage, he couldn't push it away.
Nodding his head, he sent all the herbs on the ground into the Dragon Seal Space and said, "Many thanks."
"Brother Long, since you consider me as a friend, there's something I want to ask. Were the six people from the Ye Clan killed by you?"
Taking a deep look at Dongfang Suo, Long Ao pondered for a bit before nodding his head in agreement. "I'm only giving you a taste of your own medicine. You can't blame me for this."
"Brother Long, this isn't your fault. The Ye Clan only has themselves to blame."
Hearing Dongfang Suo's words, Long Ao was even more puzzled. He didn't know what Dongfang Suo meant. Could it be that there was a grudge between the Blazing Imperial Family and the Ye Clan?
Although he had never stepped into Flame City, Long Ao still had some understanding of the Flame Empire. In Flame City, the Flame Imperial Family was fully deserving of their title as the overlord. They could not wait for the three great families to restrain each other.
As if he could read Long Ao's mind, Dongfang Suo smiled and said, "Brother Long, in Flame City, the three great families restrict each other. However, to tell you the truth, the rapid development of the three great families has already seriously affected the royal family."
Long Ao didn't say anything and only listened quietly.
"The Ye Clan, Wei Clan, and Linghu Clan. Especially in recent years, the three great families have been recruiting troops. If it weren't for the Sound of Thunder Sect supporting them from behind, I believe the three great families would have already rebelled. There's no need to wait until now."
"So what?"
"Brother Long, I consider you a true friend, so I'll get straight to the point. I want to become the Emperor of the Flame Empire."
"So what?"
Long Ao became even more curious. Whether the other party wanted to become the Emperor or not, what did it have to do with him? Could it be that just because he gave him some medicinal herbs, he wanted him to interfere with the matters of the Flame Empire?
Although Long Ao was confident in himself, the Flame Empire was like a colossus. With his current strength, it was impossible for him to shake the Flame Empire, let alone influence the direction of an Emperor.
"Brother Long, I hope to have your help."
"Prince Dongfang, you think too highly of me. I'm only a small martial artist. If you want me to fight with other martial artists, I might be able to. But to help you fight for the throne, I'm afraid I can't do it."
"Brother Long, you can definitely do it. I believe you have the strength. Later, I'll arrange for you to enter the Flame Empire Guardian Hall and help you become its Hall Master. As long as you can sit on this seat, I'll have the opportunity to become the Emperor in advance."
Long Ao thought for a moment and instantly understood Dongfang Suo's intention.
In the Flame Empire, other than the Emperor, the Flame Empire Guardian Hall had the greatest authority. Sometimes, the Flame Empire Guardian Hall could even influence the direction of an Emperor.
Thinking about it made sense. No matter what, the Flame Empire Guardian Hall was the gathering camp of all the powerful martial artists in the Flame Empire. Obtaining the Guardian Hall was equivalent to obtaining martial power.
Dongfang Suo had a good plan.
"Brother Dongfang, although I consider you a friend, I can't agree to join the Flame Empire Guardian Hall. I like to be free. Otherwise, I wouldn't have rejected the Thunder Guardian Hall."
This was the truth. Back then, the Thunder Guardian Hall extended an olive branch to him, but it was directly rejected by Long Ao. Rejecting the Thunder Empire and agreeing to the Flame Empire?
Dongfang Suo seemed to want to say something, but Long Ao was one step ahead and said: "Prince Dongfang, joining the Flame Empire Guardian Hall is impossible. However, if you have any matters in the future, I can help you. How about it?"
Since things had already reached this point, Dongfang Suo naturally knew that the other party couldn't join the Flame Empire Guardian Hall. He smiled and said: "Okay, Brother Long. Today, we won't leave until we're drunk."
One had to admit that Dongfang Suo was indeed a character. In the following time, the two didn't talk about the throne. They drank and talked about everything under the sun. It could be said that they were quite happy.
Long Ao could be considered to have gained some understanding of Dongfang Suo's character. He hid a dagger behind a smile, and he was still a man with a true temperament. Just like this, the two of them drank for an entire day and night, and they only stopped at dawn the next day.
The news of Long Ao and Dongfang Suo drinking together had already spread throughout Flame City. At this time, even more people began to suspect Long Ao's identity. First, it was Linghu Ning, then it was Dongfang Suo.
Long Ao could be said to have become completely famous in Flame City.
As soon as Dongfang Suo left, Linghu Ning and Ice Soul came to find Long Ao. Ice Soul went straight to the point: "Brother Long, these are all the medicinal ingredients you need. If you have nothing else to do, you should leave the Flame Empire as soon as possible. Remember, unless it is absolutely necessary, you shouldn't enter Flame City again."
Seeing Ice Soul and Linghu Ning speaking so seriously, Long Ao was very puzzled and asked: "What happened?"
