I am a prince in Zhutian Films

Chapter 244 Slap
In the snow and wind, a young man in a light red shirt was driving his horse hard with his chest exposed.

If you could see him from the front, you would see that the young man has a smile on his face, as if he was driving a carriage in the warm smile of spring, with the feeling that he has found the spring of life.

In the carriage, Xiao Se patted the golden coffin beside him and said, "By the way, do you really not know what is in this coffin?"

Tang Lian shook her head upon hearing this: "Master didn't tell me. He just asked me to deliver it to the Jiulong Temple in Biluo City, and also said something to me."

"What?"

"Don't ever try to open this casket."

Tang Lian slapped Xiao Se's hand off the top, and then changed the subject: "However, from what Miss Chu said, there should be a person inside."

"Is it true, as the rumors say, that there is a stunning beauty inside?"

Xiao Se looked thoughtful, and turned to look at Chu Zhao, who was resting with his eyes closed. Seeing that he didn't react, he asked directly, "Uncle, is there really a beauty in here?"

Chu Zhao opened his eyes and hummed, "It's a beauty."

"How could there be a beauty in Hanshui Temple, a Buddhist temple?"

Chu Zhao opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, his body suddenly turned into wisps of smoke and disappeared in the carriage.

Then, Xiao Se and Tang Lian in the carriage, as well as Sikong Qianluo who was playing with the dog, heard Lei Wujie's voice.

"Senior Chu, why did you come out?"

At this moment, Xiao Se also felt something and got out of the carriage, pushing Lei Wujie aside.

"Why did you come out too? Are you afraid that I'll be bored outside alone?" Lei Wujie said with a smile, looking very happy.

Xiao Se sneered: "You are such a fool, you are good at daydreaming. Look at the sky, what can you see?"

Lei Wujie subconsciously pulled the reins to slowly stop the carriage, and then followed Xiao Se's gaze to look at the horizon, only to see the clouds in the sky surging, and a golden light seemed to give the sky a golden edge.

Lei Wujie hummed in confusion and said with a smile: "This is the first time I have seen such a miraculous celestial phenomenon. It is quite beautiful."

"What a hottie." Xiao Se rolled his eyes, looked at Chu Zhao, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle, is this a vision caused by someone entering a trance?"

Chu Zhao nodded: "I heard that Yan Zhantian wanted to ask for the sword Wangcheng Mountain before. It seems that Zhao Yuzhen borrowed Yan Zhantian's hand and entered the divine travel with a sword."

"What? The Angry Sword Immortal asked the sword to look at Chengshan?!" Lei Wujie was shocked at first, and then he was full of regret: "What a pity, what a pity, I didn't even get to see the duel between the two great sword immortals."

"It's a duel between the top masters of Xiaoyaotian Realm. It's impossible for you to see it clearly with your strength. It makes no difference whether you see it or not." Sikong Qianluo came out of the carriage holding the dog, with a hint of contempt in his tone.

Tang Lian, who came out with him, nodded in agreement, but he didn't say anything. He looked up at the golden edge in the sky, his eyes full of longing.

Lei Wujie didn't care about the contempt in Sikong Qianluo's tone. He still looked at the horizon and sighed, "A sword can enter the divine world. It's really something to yearn for."

Xiao Se clenched his hands slowly into his sleeves.

Thinking back to those days, he was also full of vigor and vitality. He entered the Free and Easy Heaven Realm at a young age. Everyone said that he had a great chance of reaching the Divine Wandering Profound Realm. Unfortunately... it's better not to mention it.

Tang Lian retracted her gaze, cupped her hands and smiled, "As far as I know, Senior Chu is a disciple of Wangcheng Mountain. Now Wangcheng Mountain has added another earthly immortal, which is cause for celebration."

Why say it again?

Because the Senior Chu in front of him was an earthly immortal who traveled to the mysterious realm more than ten years ago.

"Ok?"

Chu Zhao turned his head and asked with some doubt: "How do you know I am a disciple of Wangcheng Mountain?"

"I have heard Master talk about some things in the past."

Seeing that Chu Zhao did not refute, Xiao Se asked blankly: "Uncle, are you really a disciple of Wangcheng Mountain?"

"Back then, Senior Brother Lu accepted disciples on behalf of our master, and I became a disciple of Wangcheng Mountain. However, I had a special status at that time, so not many people knew about this. Baili Dongjun should have known about it from Li Changsheng."

A trace of reminiscence flashed across Chu Zhao's face, and then he smiled with some emotion: "Come to think of it, it was me who carried Zhao Yuzhen up the mountain. Thirty years have passed in a blink of an eye. At the age of thirty, I am in a trance, so it's okay."

"To become a god on earth at the age of thirty, is that sloppy?!" Xiao Se was stunned.

You know, there are countless warriors in the world, and countless people cannot even reach the threshold of Xiaoyao Tianjing in their entire lives, let alone the Shenyou Xuanjing that seems to be a legendary realm. Many people don’t even know that there is such a realm as Shenyou Xuanjing in the world.

However, thinking about the story of my own uncle, who entered a trance at the age of thirty, it seems that he was just careless.

"An earthly immortal?" Chu Zhao snorted, "Zhao Yu is really unworthy of it. He has only just started on his journey and is still far from being an immortal."

Tang Lian's heart moved: "Senior, are you saying that the journey to the mysterious realm is just the beginning?"

"Whether it's the beginning or the end, it's not something you should understand at your current level."

Chu Zhao smiled and said, "Okay, I have something else to do, so I'll go first. We'll meet again in San Gu City. I think your next stop must be San Gu City Beauty Manor."

After saying this, Chu Zhao turned into wisps of breeze and disappeared from the carriage, as if he had never been there.

Although they had seen him in the carriage just now, Xiao Se, Tang Lian and Sikong Qianluo were still shocked when they saw him again.

The most shocking thing among them was naturally the first time seeing Lei Wujie turning his body into wind.

"Is this... Senior Chu still a human?"

Xiao Se rolled his eyes: "Nonsense, of course it's a human."

Lei Wujie shook his head: "No, it's a god. Xiao Se, what realm do you think Senior Chu is in now?"

"How should I know?" Xiao Se said unhappily, "Anyway, he is an existence that we cannot even compare to. His realm must be above the Divine Wandering."

Tang Lian took over the conversation: "Brother Xiao, you should be more than just an innkeeper."

Lei Wujie nodded subconsciously, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.

Because he remembered the agreement between him and Xiao Se, he could not reveal Xiao Se's true identity.

Xiao Se smiled and said, "Does it matter? I am just a useless person who doesn't know martial arts. I can't harm you even if I want to. Besides, I won't harm you. Let's go."

Tang Lian was not the kind of person who would dig deeper into things. Since Xiao Se was unwilling to talk, he did not ask any more questions and patted Lei Wujie on the shoulder: "Thank you for your help, Brother Lei."

"It's okay, brother. You are injured. Go and rest."

Tang Lian shook her head and spoke slowly: "Brother Lei, you haven't married yet, oh, no, you haven't become a disciple yet, the word "senior brother"... I think you don't need to be so anxious to call me that."

"Okay, senior brother."

Seeing this, Tang Lian could only sigh helplessly.

Lei Wujie threw the reins hard, and the two Yebei horses started running immediately, leaving behind a trail of wind and snow.

Half an hour later, the carriage suddenly stopped.

Because a young Taoist priest came and blocked the road.

The young Taoist priest was wearing a loose, thin, azure blue robe and looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. He had an extremely handsome face, and was even more beautiful than a woman, especially his pair of peach blossom eyes, which seemed to be able to captivate people and make people fall into them uncontrollably.

At first glance, the whole person is a perfect combination of masculinity and femininity.

The young Taoist bowed his head and said, "Blessings and infinite heavenly master, I am Wangchengshan Yunxiao, and I am honored to meet you three brothers and this girl."

"What a handsome Taoist priest."

Sikong Qianluo blurted out, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.

Lei Wujie and Tang Lian nodded subconsciously, and Xiao Se jumped off the carriage and saluted, "Xiao Se, meet my third cousin."

Chu Ye looked Xiao Se up and down, and counted with his fingers.

"Are you my second aunt's son?"

Xiao Se nodded: "Well, I wonder why my third cousin is here?"

"I'm here to find my dad."

"Um... my uncle just left."

"Where have you been?"

Xiao Se shook his head: "He didn't say, but he said that he would meet us at the Beauty Manor in San Gu City."

Chu Ye was stunned, thought for a moment, and said, "If that's the case, then I'll go with you. I'm too lazy to look for him."

As the person in charge, Tang Lian naturally did not refuse.

After all, the young Taoist priest in front of him is the son of Senior Chu, and is a cousin of Xiao Se. It would be difficult to refuse based on this relationship.

Not to mention, the road ahead for them is not peaceful, and there is no reason to turn the master away if he comes to their doorstep.

In this way, Chu Ye followed Xiao Se and his party on the journey to San Gu City.

Beili, the imperial palace of Tianqi City.

"Yan Zhantian was defeated, and the Taoist Sword Immortal entered a state of spiritual wandering."

State Master Qi Tianchen was playing chess with Emperor Mingde. When Xiao Ruojin heard the news from him, his expression did not change at all, but he seemed to be squeezing the chess piece with a little more force.

“National Master, back then, the head of Wangcheng Mountain, Lü Suzhen, once left a prophecy for Zhao Yuzhen.

It is said that Zhao Yuzhen is entrusted with the mission of heaven. Once he goes down the mountain, Wangcheng Mountain will decline and the world will be turned upside down.

Do you think he will come down the mountain?"

Qi Tianchen naturally knew about this, after all, he had a special relationship with Wangcheng Mountain.

He laughed when he heard this: "Your Majesty, he has already gone down the mountain."

"Oh? It seems that the five thousand elite soldiers under the Wangcheng Mountain are just for show. I didn't even hear a word about such a big event."

In fact, Xiao Ruojin didn't care too much about this. If a master like the Taoist Sword Immortal really wanted to come down the mountain, how could the five thousand elite soldiers at the foot of the mountain stop him?
Their existence is just waiting for an answer, a result.

Now, the result seems clear.

Xiao Ruojin dropped a piece and smiled faintly: "According to the opinion of the national teacher, if Zhao Yuzhen goes down the mountain, will the world turn upside down?"

Qi Tianchen also dropped a child and shook his head, saying, "This old minister has already told Your Majesty that Zhao Yuzhen is not the man of destiny. It doesn't matter if he goes down the mountain. Besides, his destiny has been cut off by someone."

When Xiao Ruojin heard this, his eyes instantly became sharp.

"who is it?"

Back then, even Lu Suzhen, with his extraordinary skills, couldn't do it, but now someone can do it.

This person...wait, can't it be him?
"It seems that your majesty has thought of it."

Xiao Ruojin sighed, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes: "It's indeed him!"

At this moment, a breeze suddenly blew, and as the light and shadows swayed, a figure appeared in the hall.

The man who came was dressed in light clothes and was casual and unrestrained. He pushed Qi Tianchen aside without any image and sat down.

Xiao Ruojin broke out in a cold sweat instantly, and his hand that was twisting the chess piece couldn't help but tremble, and the chess piece fell on the board with a crisp sound.

Chu Zhao ignored him and smiled at Qi Tianchen, "My son is getting married on the 18th of the first lunar month. Does the Imperial Master have time?"

Qi Tianchen smiled and said, "My nephew's wedding is coming soon. I will prepare a great gift for him. Is that why you are here to tell me about this?"

"Besides, there's one more thing."

"what's up?"

Chu Zhao didn't say anything. He just raised his head and slapped Xiao Ruojin in the face.

Xiao Ruojin had been beaten by Chu Zhao before, but this was the first time he was slapped in the face.

The slap didn't hurt, it was just an ordinary slap.

It is not very harmful, but extremely insulting.

It was a great shame and humiliation for an emperor of a country, the pinnacle of power in the world, to be slapped in the face.

Xiao Ruojin was furious and gnashed his teeth as he said, "Chu Zhao, how dare you humiliate me like this?!"

"What if I humiliate you?"

Chu Zhao chuckled: "You have been the emperor for so long that you don't know who you are anymore? You dared to bar your teeth at me and angered me. Do you believe that I will kill you now?"

Xiao Ruojin was scared.

Now there is no queen to protect him, and he knows Chu Zhao's character very well. He never plays by the rules. If he is not careful, he may really kill him.

More importantly, with Chu Zhao's current strength, no one in Tianqi City can stop him.

Xiao Ruojin suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "What on earth do you want to do?"

Chu Zhao stretched out his hands and said, "Bring the things here."

"what?"

"What are you talking about? What I gave to my nephew is something you can covet?"

Xiao Ruojin was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought of something, and said angrily: "I didn't take that piece of jade. Chu He gave it to his second brother himself. I am not so greedy as to covet my son's things."

Chu Zhao said calmly, "Since he gave it to me himself, let it be."

Xiao Ruojin was so angry: "You slapped me for this?"

"I hit you because he was injured and you did nothing."

"I'll check again."

Chu Zhao sneered: "Did you find out anything?"

"It's Luo Qingyang."

"Oh, you want to use me to get rid of Luo Qingyang. That's a nice idea. Do you think I'm a fool?"

Chu Zhao raised his hand, but was stopped by Qi Tianchen's quick eyes and hands.

"Junior brother, His Majesty is the emperor of a country after all."

"Is he worthy of being an emperor?"

Frankly speaking, Emperor Xiao Ruojin was a pretty good person and could be considered a wise ruler.

However, as he grew older, his suspicion grew more and more, and he was gradually becoming like his father, Emperor Tai'an Xiao Chongjing.

Chu Zhao finally gave Qi Tianchen some face, withdrew his hand and said coldly: "You are as useless as your father. You only know how to plot and scheme, and you have withdrawn the troops from Wangcheng Mountain."

After all, he was the emperor of a country, and Xiao Ruojin also wanted to save face, so he angrily said, "You said so, so we should withdraw?"

"I am discussing this with you. If you do not withdraw, I do not mind a war between our two countries and incorporating Wangcheng Mountain into the territory of our Chu State."

"you……"

Xiao Ruojin was so angry that he was shaking all over, but he was helpless against Chu Zhao and didn't even dare to say a harsh word.

Chu Zhao retracted his gaze, a warm smile like spring breeze appeared on his face, and he bowed and said, "Brother Qi, on the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, I will be waiting for you at Yuelu. I am leaving now!"

Seeing Chu Zhao disappear like the wind, Xiao Ruojin finally relaxed. His face turned pale as he said, "He is becoming more unfathomable."

Qi Tianchen nodded: "Unless an immortal descends to earth, no one in the world can be his opponent. What came just now was just a divine thought from him."

"Divinity?"

Qi Tianchen hummed, but didn't intend to say more. He made up an excuse and left the hall.

Xiao Ruojin did not stop him. He stared blankly at the seat opposite him, his face so gloomy that water could drip out of it.

Chu Zhao's existence has always made him uneasy, and he has long wanted to get rid of him.

But every time he thought of Chu Zhao's strength and the battle outside Lausanne more than ten years ago, he didn't know where to start.

Chu Zhao is an unsolvable existence.

"Damn it, damn it, Chu Zhao, you really deserve to die!"

The chessboard and chess pieces were blown away and scattered all over the floor.

The noise was quite loud and the palace servants outside the hall heard it clearly, but no one dared to enter.

Xiao Ruojin vented a lot of anger before he recovered.

"Someone is coming."

The tutor, Jin Xuan, walked forward and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty."

Xiao Ruojin said coldly: "Withdraw the troops from Wangcheng Mountain and deal with the people outside."

He was the emperor, and the news of him being slapped in the face must not be spread to others.

Although there was no one serving in the hall at the time, there was no guarantee that people outside had not seen it, so it was better to kill him.

After all, only the dead don't talk nonsense.

Jin Xuan took the order and left, and considerately closed the hall door, making the entire hall dark.

In the darkness, Xiao Ruojin's breath was as cold as a poisonous snake, and he muttered to himself quietly.

“Is it necessary for an immortal to descend to earth?
But are there really immortals in this world?
If so, how can we make them come down to earth?

Looks like I have to go to the No. 1 building in the world..."
