Chapter 1649 Hidden Murder
Hou Mansion.
Hou Boyi looked at his son, whom he had not seen for more than a year, with very complicated emotions.
Hou Tao was obviously a genius and could bring glory to his family, but he became the servant of the third prince.
This change in identity is undoubtedly a stain on the Hou family, and it has always been Hou Boyi's heart.
Hou Boyi recovered his thoughts and said: "Hou Tao, how have you been in the past year?"
Hou Tao said: "It's okay."
Seeing his cold attitude, Hou Boyi said: "The Third Prince has an engagement with your sister. It's not good for you to be a servant to the Third Prince. Why don't you ask your sister to tell the Third Prince and give you your freedom."
Hou Tao's face darkened and he said seriously: "Father, I promised the Third Prince that I would be his slave forever, how could I go back on my promise? What's more, the Third Prince's talent is so terrifying that you cannot imagine it. His future achievements are by no means limited to Daxia is not even limited to the Nine Kingdoms of Beishan. If I follow him in this life, my future will be limitless."
Seeing Hou Tao following the Third Prince wholeheartedly, Hou Boyi felt a little uncomfortable. He shook his head and walked out, saying: "Brothers and sisters, let's talk. I have something to do and I have to go out."
After Hou Boyi left, Hou Tao said to Hou Xiang: "Sister, you are lucky to have a good relationship with the third prince. In the future, when the third prince reaches the top, your benefits will be indispensable."
Hou Xiang showed a happy smile on his face, and then asked: "Brother, what should Chen Yang do?"
A cold look flashed in Hou Tao's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "In the eyes of the Third Prince, Chen Yang is just an ant-like figure, not worth mentioning. However, while he is alive, he is always an eyesore. Before I returned to the royal capital, the Third Prince said , get rid of him through this Nine Kingdoms Heroes Battle."
A sneer appeared on Hou Xiang's face, he looked outside the door and murmured: "Chen Yang, you could have been your heir in peace, but who asked you to be in the limelight. Now you are seeking death, you can't blame me."
…
The Third Prince's Mansion.
Chen Hongyi got the news that Chen Yang signed up to participate in the Nine Kingdoms Heroes War. A sneer appeared on his lips and murderous intent appeared in his eyes.
The opportunity came.
"The Battle of the Heroes of the Nine Kingdoms will be held at Piaomiao Terrace. Chen Yang died there, and my father cannot blame me."
Chen Hongyi sneered, looked at a middle-aged man next to him who was about fifty years old, and said in a deep voice: "Hao Jin, you contact the Dark Palace, I will provide 50,000 spirit stones, and ask them to send people to lurk into the Nine Kingdoms Heroes War. , assassinate Chen Yang."
Hao Jin said: "Yes, Third Prince."
After finishing speaking, Hao Jin immediately turned around and left.
"Chen Yang, I still don't believe that An Palace took action. You won't die this time."
Chen Hongyi twirled his beard, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
…
The royal capital, Mingfeng Restaurant.
"Since Chen Yang is going to participate in the Nine Kingdoms Heroes War, this is our chance to kill him."
Lin Bao was very excited when he got the news.
Looking at the people in the room, he mused: "Chen Yang stole the show and won the first place in this Great Xia Martial Arts Campaign. Although he is only at the peak of pill formation, his strength is not weak. To kill him, he must be at least five levels above the ordinary. Only by focusing more can you be sure.”
Glancing at the people present, he ordered: "Yao Xia, Zhao Yang, and Li Qing, the three of you are at the fifth level of extraordinary, and are just thirty-five years old. You can also sign up to participate in the Nine Kingdoms Heroes Battle. Your purpose is, It’s not about competing for a spot on the Nine Kingdoms Heroes List, it’s just about killing Chen Yang.”
After receiving the order, Yao Xia, Zhao Yang, and Li Qing couldn't help but frown, somewhat reluctant to accept the job.
Lin Bao said: "After this is accomplished, each of you will receive a thousand spiritual stones. You should be satisfied with this, right?"
"Yes, Elder Lin."
Yao Xia and the other two were immediately overjoyed.
One thousand spirit stones is a lot for them.
…
In the blink of an eye, eighteen days passed.
Chen Yang practiced the third form of Ziji swordsmanship: Zirui Electrode in the closed martial arts arena of Prince Yang's Mansion.
The black light sword in his hand flashed with black light. The six runes on it, two flame weapon patterns, two hard weapon patterns, and two power weapon patterns, all glowed with dazzling light at this moment.
Cyan infuriating energy and blue star energy flowed on the black light sword.
In addition, the sword blade was surrounded by purple electric light and made a crackling sound.
He swung his sword, and the sword energy was like a bolt of lightning, attacking forward.
There was a burning smell in the air, and the Zirui electrode illuminated the entire martial arts arena brightly, with terrifying power and a rumbling sound.
Boom.
The sword energy bombarded a dark boulder, and the boulder instantly exploded and shattered into pieces.
True energy, star energy, and purple electric light erupted in that space, spreading around like a huge power grid.
However, with the boulder as the core, after spreading for ten meters, all the energy is restricted inside and cannot break through the ten-meter radius area.
Chen Yang set up a formation to prevent energy from leaking out and causing unnecessary damage.
When the energy of the sword energy gradually dissipated, Chen Yang put away the black light sword and said: "It seems that the Zirui electrode is still a little bit behind. The electric light is not condensed enough. After hitting the target, it will spread and lose energy. However, as long as you find it correctly, The timing is enough to cause fatal damage to the extraordinary fifth level."
Chen Yang is quite satisfied with his current progress.
He put away his black light sword and left the martial arts arena.
Chen Yi was waiting for him in the main hall. When she saw him coming, she hurriedly greeted him and said happily: "Chen Yang, I have already mastered the "Jinghong Sword Technique" you gave me. I am confident that I can become a hero of the Nine Kingdoms." Top 100."
Chen Yang nodded and warned: "Remember, do not use this magical power lightly, otherwise, it will cause serious damage to the body."
"Got it." Chen Yi responded, saying, "Let's go, the people who are participating in the Nine Kingdoms Heroes Tournament are waiting outside the city to set off."
The two set off and left the capital.
There is a parade ground outside the city. At this moment, the Royal Guards are around the parade ground to maintain order.
In the parade ground, all the players are participating in the Nine Kingdoms Heroes Tournament.
What surprised Chen Yang was that there were more than 500 people who signed up for the entire Great Xia Dynasty.
Adding the other eight countries, wouldn't there be nearly 5,000 people participating in the Nine Kingdoms Heroes Tournament? This number is really scary.
However, Chen Yang had learned before that there are 3 billion people in Great Xia alone, and it is still easy to select 500 people from them.
The Nine Kingdoms Heroes Tournament is a major event for the nine kingdoms of Beishan.
In addition to Sun He, the leader of the team, the king Chen Ao also showed up, but he just said some encouraging words and left.
Before leaving, he glanced at Chen Yang. Although he didn't say much, he still made Chen Yang feel his expectations for him.
"Are you Chen Yang?"
A woman's voice sounded beside him.
Chen Yang turned around and saw a girl about 25 years old standing in front of him.
The girl was about 1.7 meters tall, tall, with a very delicate face, bright red lips, and a high nose. She looked like a mixed-race.
Seeing Chen Yang looking at her, the girl raised a charming smile and asked again: "Are you Chen Yang?"
