Inside the Kuixing Pavilion, Zi Yao, who was receiving a guest, was suddenly shocked by the urgent knocking on the door. After apologizing, Zi Biao left the VIP room!
"Miss, someone reported that Mister Ling was surrounded by the Black Crossbow Army in front of the Thousand Flavor Shop. It's unknown whether he's alive or not!" Zi Yao saw her maid.
When she heard the words' the fate of the Black Crossbow Army is unknown ', Zi Yao felt her head explode, and she almost blacked out! However, the perseverance of a warrior made her body sway a few times. She stood firmly on the spot!
"Thousand Flavor Zhai …" Zi Yao repeated the location. She didn't say anything else and the customer didn't care. With a loud bang, he directly broke through the window on the fifth floor of the Kuixing Pavilion and shot out like a bolt of lightning!
Her sweetheart was suddenly in danger, causing Zi Yao to suddenly lose her composure!
After breaking the window, Zi Yao nimbly somersaulted more than ten meters in the air. Red lightning flashed in her hand. She stepped on the red light and lightly landed on the buildings near the Kuixing Pavilion!
With a light tap of her foot, Zi Yao's entire body was like a purple fairy. She leaped from one building to another in the imperial capital's Brilliance City and headed straight for the Thousand Flavor House!
In another hidden room in the Imperial Capital, a sword maid was reporting to Liu Yaoguang, "Miss, there's news from the Nacrelight Pavilion. Someone spread the news that Ling Dong will be killed by the Black Crossbow Army!"
"Ling Dong? Black Crossbow Army?" Liu Yaoguang, who was cultivating, suddenly opened her eyes!
Liu Yaoguang pondered for a moment and said, "Go, send an order to the two grannies. Ask them to go there and take a look. However, don't interfere too much!"
"Yes!" In the blink of an eye, the sword maid turned and disappeared!
While these two situations were happening, Commandery Prince Ping, Bi Pengfei, also received a report, "Your Highness, the matter you asked has been completed. Zi Yao has already rushed here from the Kuixing Pavilion! However, the Nacrelight Pavilion is closed today. The news has been spread. However, I'm not sure if Liu Yaoguang knows about it! "
As soon as he finished speaking, the subordinate who came to report pointed at a purple figure wrapped in green light. It suddenly stopped on the eaves of the Thousand Flavor Shop.
"Your Highness, look, Zi Yao is here!"
Zi Yao stood on the roof of the Thousand Flavour House amidst the wind. Her purple dress fluttered in the wind while her beautiful face was tranquil, and it added a trace of ethereal beauty. To a Xiantian Realm martial artist, a distance of less than a thousand meters didn't require much time!
When Zi Yao saw Ling Dong surrounded by the Black Crossbow Army and the Black Guards charging in from the outside, she suddenly became abnormally calm. Thus, she stood close to the eaves and did not immediately act rashly.
Seeing Zi Yao's arrival, Commandery Prince Ping Bi Pengfei was only happy for a moment before he frowned. This was because he also heard the Black Guards' movements!
Such a big movement from the Black Guards could only mean the arrival of one person, and that was Bi Pengfei's father, the current Second Prince!
Among all of His Majesty's sons, the second prince was the only one who held military power and could command three thousand Black Guards in the imperial capital! The fact that the Black Guards were mobilized in the Imperial Capital could only mean one thing — the Second Prince was here!
"What is Father doing here?" Bi Pengfei was astonished for a moment before he relaxed. With the arrival of his father and the Black Guards, even Le Bainian wouldn't protect Ling Dong!
As Bi Pengfei expected, the Black Guards' murderous roar caused Le Bainian and Old Jiang 'er, who were familiar with the affairs of the imperial capital, to have extremely ugly expressions! One had to know that even the Centurion of the Black Guards had the cultivation of the late stage Xiantian Realm!
For example, the Black Guards' chiliarch had to be a Disha Realm martial artist to be in that position! More importantly, the arrival of the Black Guards meant the arrival of the Second Prince. With the arrival of the Second Prince, Le Bainian's plan to protect Ling Dong with his status would fall through, let alone the brothel's procuress, Old Jiang 'er, who would be of no use!
However, Le Bainian and Old Jiang 'er strangely discovered that the Centurion Sun Hao, who had received the item from Ling Dong and heard the arrival of the Black Guards, suddenly couldn't suppress his trembling body, and cold sweat rolled down his forehead!
"Even if the Black Guards are here, the one who should be afraid should be him, right?" Le Bainian was very puzzled!
Ling Dong didn't care about the arrival of the Black Guards or the White Guards. He only shouted at the Centurion fiercely, "Slap yourself, and then capture that madman who slandered this venerable one!"
Hearing this shout, Le Bainian, Old Jiang 'er, and the martial artists watching from afar all stared at Ling Dong in astonishment. A thought came to their minds at the same time, "Could it be that this youth has been scared out of his wits?"
"Pa!"
What surprised everyone, including Le Bainian and Old Jiang 'er, was that the Centurion of the Black Crossbow Army actually dared to slap himself a few times in an extremely loud manner!
At this moment, not only did Le Bainian and Old Jiang 'er's jaws drop, but even Bi Pengfei, who was still proud of himself not far away, was also shocked, "My eyes aren't playing tricks on me? What exactly is the identity of this Ling Dong? "
At this time, only Zi Yao, who was standing on the eaves of the Thousand Flavour House, knew the reason, "Brother Ling has a very high status jade tripod badge in his hands. How could he be killed by the Black Crossbow Army? Could it be that someone wants to trick me into coming here? "
After slapping himself, the Centurion of the Black Crossbow Army handed the jade tripod badge back to Ling Dong with both hands with a sad face. Then, he walked dejectedly toward Bi Pengfei.
There was no other way, who let this youth have the jade tripod badge!
As a mid-level and low-level officer of the Imperial Capital's elite army, Sun Hao still knew some things! For example, this jade tripod badge!
Within the Yaoguang Empire, the pharmacist badges were divided into five levels: bronze tripod badge, silver tripod badge, jade tripod badge, golden tripod badge, and purple tripod badge!
The privileges of the bronze tripod and silver tripod badges were not too great. Family members and themselves were exempted from various miscellaneous taxes, and there was a certain amount of benefits to receive every month. In terms of status, it was comparable to the general county princess, but there was no real power!
However, starting from the jade tripod badge, there were real privileges! Those who held the jade tripod badge could be on equal footing with the Duke of the Empire! Except for the Imperial Court Conference and the Pharmacist Mansion, no one had the power to judge the holder of the jade tripod badge!
And the holder of the golden tripod badge was comparable to the Prince. The monthly benefits received were several times more than any other Prince! There were more than a dozen Princes in the Yaoguang Empire, but only three people held the golden tripod badge!
As for the holder of the purple tripod badge, his power was infinite. He could go in and out on equal footing with the current emperor, and he was a figure who could decide the rise and fall of the empire. However, at present, there was no holder of the purple tripod badge in the Yaoguang Empire!
Moreover, Sun Hao also knew that there were hundreds of imperial grandsons and even imperial great-grandsons of the current emperor, but there were definitely not many holders of the jade tripod badge! Moreover, the younger the person who held this badge, the higher his status!
There was no other reason, the younger the person, the greater the potential!
Therefore, this Centurion Sun Hao was in a dilemma. What should he do? He couldn't afford to offend either side now! Although the young man with the jade cauldron badge was powerful, Bi Pengfei was not an ordinary prince either.
He could only issue an order first to let the black crossbow army put away their crossbows!
This move made Bi Pengfei extremely annoyed. He almost roared, "Bastard, what are you doing? Didn't you hear my order?" The Centurion's move made Bi Pengfei feel that his majesty had been provoked!
At this time, Zi Yao, who was standing on the eaves in the air, suddenly chuckled. She suddenly realized that this Bi Pengfei was a bit like a clown!
The Centurion Sun Hao squinted at Bi Pengfei and secretly scolded him, "What are you roaring for? If you have the ability, then go ahead." In his heart, he was extremely embarrassed. What should he do? The Pharmacist's Mansion was a place that everyone was in awe of!
However, in a flash, the Centurion Sun Hao made a decision. Didn't the Black Guard come? If the Black Guard came, then Bi Pengfei's father, the Second Prince, would come as well?
I will directly report this matter and let your father deal with it. If your father dares to kill the youth who holds the jade tripod badge, I will go all out!
"Get out of the way!" In the thunderous sound of hooves, a black crossbow army couldn't dodge in time and was whipped by the Black Guard who opened the way. Behind the Black Guard who opened the way, on a white horse, the Second Prince, who had a gentle smile on his face but did not lose his majesty, tightly pursed his lips and rushed over under the protection of the Black Guard!
"Your Highness the Second Prince, Centurion Centurion Sun Hao has something important to report!" At the moment when the Second Prince passed by, Centurion Sun Hao, who didn't want the mortals to suffer when the immortals fought, said loudly! Although Sun Hao knew that his move might be severely reprimanded, he had no choice. He couldn't afford to offend either side!
"Hmm?" The Second Prince's sword-like eyebrows rose. His gaze, which was not fierce, made Sun Hao have a feeling of fear. The power of the superior could be seen here, "In this bustling city, there are many civilians. Why did your Black Crossbow Army gather here to open the crossbow? If you fail to catch the thief and hurt innocent lives, will you bear the responsibility, hmm? "
The Second Prince's stern voice instantly spread all over the field, directly shocking the armored Centurion Sun Hao to kneel on the ground. The civilians and martial artists who heard this question in the distance exclaimed in admiration. The Second Prince really loved the people like his own children!
"Reporting to Your Highness the Second Prince, it's … it's His Highness Duke Ping who summoned me to catch a murderer in the bustling city. I came under the order, but I found …" Sun Hao mustered up his courage and said! If he didn't defend himself, there was a possibility that he would be punished by the Second Prince by military law!
"Found what?" The Second Prince's voice seemed to have a kind of infinite majesty, causing the originally noisy martial artists and civilians to instantly become silent!
"I found that the murderer mentioned by His Highness Duke Ping is actually the Lord of the Imperial Pharmacist Manor who holds the Jade Tripod badge! I can't deal with it, so I ask for Your Highness the Second Prince's instructions! "Centurion Sun Hao kowtowed and said!
"Holds the Jade Tripod badge?" The Second Prince was surprised. Then, he looked in the direction that Centurion Sun Hao pointed. The moment his sword-like eyebrows rose, he sucked in a breath of cold air, "It's actually that Ling Dong!"
As he turned over and dismounted, anger appeared on his face like a dark cloud covering the sun!
