Luck entry, starting from the Nine Dragons' succession

Chapter 83: The Supervisor's Back-up Plan, Fang Heng's Reward

In the snow and wind, the wind was howling.

The golden divine light descended like the scorching sun, piercing the night sky of Yujing City.

The figure of Emperor Yuanchu slowly emerged, surrounded by endless majesty, as if the heaven and earth were trembling because of him.

He held a long sword in his hand, stepped into the air, and stood with his hands behind his back.

A brilliant golden light flowed on the sword, and the sound of a dragon's roar could be heard faintly.

This long sword is the innate spiritual treasure that suppresses Daqian's destiny - the Tai'a Sword.

Emperor Yuanchu descended upon the military camp holding the Tai'a sword.

He obviously came with murderous intentions.

The blade of the Taia Sword trembled slightly in the void, making a sharp sword sound.

It seemed as if it would be unsheathed in the next second, cutting through the sky and illuminating the nine provinces.

The moment Emperor Yuanchu descended.

The surrounding void solidified.

Even the wind and snow in the sky stopped moving, unable to get close to the emperor at all.

A cold gaze, like two sharp swords, shot out from Emperor Yuanchu's eyes and fell on Zhou Jueyin.

If it were an ordinary person, these two glances alone would be enough to crush him into meat paste.

Lu Zangfeng narrowed his eyes, feeling the overwhelming aura of Emperor Yuanchu.

I just felt that the void was frozen and the air was solidified, as if it was made of steel and was extremely heavy.

"Lu Zangfeng, you disappoint me so much."

The majestic voice of Emperor Yuanchu spread in all directions, like thunder rolling in the sky.

Lu Zangfeng smiled, with a hint of contempt and fearlessness in his smile.

"The victor is the king and the loser is the bandit, no need to say more!"

"Your Majesty, if you want to take my life, let me see how powerful your swordsmanship is compared to Fang Qi's."

"Humph—addressing Taizu by his name directly."

"Be punished!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Yuanchu swung the Taia sword in his hand.

The sword energy was like a rainbow, cutting through the void.

With the momentum to destroy the world, he slashed forward.

Lu Zangfeng's pupils shrank suddenly, becoming the size of a needle tip.

Feeling the unmatched power, he tried his best to mobilize the strength in his body, turning it into a protective divine force to try to resist.

however……

Under the sword of Emperor Yuanchu, all resistance seemed futile.

The moment the sword flashed, Lu Zangfeng's body was instantly torn apart.

Poof!
It turned into a blood mist that filled the sky and drifted in the wind and snow.

The blood mist and the wind and snow, mixed together, seemed to dye the night red.

Gorgeous and eye-catching.

Peng Xiaochuan and other God-Slaying Guards showed admiration and fear when they saw Emperor Yuanchu kill Lu Zangfeng, the top general, with one sword.

The power of the Taia Sword is so terrifying.

Just, the next second.

Just when everyone thought everything was settled.

A dark light shot up into the sky from between Lu Zangfeng's eyebrows.

The faint light was extremely fast and rushed into the sky at lightning speed.

"This is?"

Fang Heng's eyes focused and he saw clearly the true form of the faint light.

It turned out to be a divine seal.

The divine seal was pitch black in color, emitting faint light and a cold aura.

Fang Heng was very familiar with this breath.

It is the breath of the Nine Netherworld.

"Nine Nether Seal!"

"It was you who stole the Nine Nether Seal."

Emperor Yuanchu shouted loudly, and two cold rays of light burst out from his pupils.

There was a hint of surprise in his tone.

Obviously, the Nine Nether Seal was in Lu Zangfeng's hands, which was completely beyond Emperor Yuanchu's expectations.

Nine Nether Seal? !

When Fang Heng heard these three words, a look of deep astonishment appeared on his face.

The feeling of astonishment was so strong that it almost turned into substance.

The Nine Nether Seal, one of the three treasures of Ghost Gate, was actually stolen by Lu Zangfeng.

Fang Heng is still at the stage of coveting the origin of the Book of Life and Death.

And Lu Zangfeng simply succeeded.

The Nine Nether Seal carried Lu Zangfeng's soul and soared into the sky.

In the void, a Yellow Springs Road appeared out of nowhere.

This Yellow Springs Road is here to lead Lu Zangfeng and the Nine Nether Seal.

hiss--

Huangquan Road can actually be used like this.

Fang Heng has walked the Yellow Springs Road many times.

The Fengdu Pass can also summon the Yellow Springs Road.

However, it absolutely cannot be used in a fight.

It takes half a cup of tea to summon the Yellow Springs Road from the Fengdu Road Guide.

In a fight between masters, half a cup of tea is enough to kill the opponent dozens of times.

How could you possibly have the time to calmly summon the Yellow Springs Road?

But tonight, Lu Zangfeng's actions opened Fang Heng's eyes.

The Yellow Springs Road can actually be summoned in an instant and used as a means of escape.

The Nine Nether Seal carried Zhou Jueyin's soul and escaped into the Yellow Springs at lightning speed.

Emperor Yuanchu naturally saw through Zhou Jueyin's plan.

The Taia sword slashed out again.

Golden light flowed on the sword, as if a golden dragon was roaring in the void.

The terrifying sword energy poured down like a river from the sky, cutting through the void and leaving behind dark cracks.

The sharp edge points directly to the road to the underworld.

Wherever he passed, the wind howled and ghosts cried and wolves howled.

It was as if the entire road to the underworld was about to be cut off.

The sword energy falls!

Suddenly, a faint light shone from the Nine Nether Seal.

It was like a rising dark sun, forming a sharp contrast with the golden light of the Taia Sword.

Buzz!
Golden sword energy and deep divine light.

In the void, there was a violent collision.

Two completely different forces collided and intertwined madly, as if to tear the heaven and earth apart.

The void twisted, cracks spread, and the surrounding scene seemed to be kneaded by an invisible giant hand, becoming fragmented.

This shows how terrifying this collision was.

Astonishing air waves spread out from the center of the collision to all directions.

Wherever it passed, the wind and snow were crushed into powder.

Even the earth looked as if it had been plowed.

The ground was in a mess.

After blocking the sword energy for a moment, the dim light made a whoosh sound.

Enter the Yellow Springs Road.

Immediately afterwards, the Yellow Springs Road disappeared into the void at an astonishing speed.

It's like it never existed.

Emperor Yuanchu wanted to set foot on the Yellow Springs Road to hunt down the enemy, but found that he had been isolated outside.

run away?

Emperor Yuanchu was holding the Tai'a sword, but he was able to let Lu Zangfeng's soul escape.

This scene not only shocked Fang Heng, but also Peng Xiaochuan and others.

Stunned and in disbelief.

Just now.

The Zi Wei Dou Shu, which was divided into four parts, suddenly turned into four rays of starlight and disappeared into the void like a meteor.

Then, a frustrated groan was heard from the depths of the void.

"Jian Zheng!"

"You old fool!"

Fang Heng raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but curse in his heart.

The old bastard, the supervisor.

There was actually a hidden trick that even he didn't know about.

The last four rays of starlight clearly have tracking capabilities.

Lu Zangfeng was careless and probably suffered a great loss.

perhaps……

The Supervisor had known for a long time that the Nine Nether Seal had fallen into Lu Zangfeng's hands, so he arranged this backup plan.

The more Fang Heng thought about it, the more frightened he became. The Supervisor definitely knew more than he did.

The wind and snow in the South City military camp gradually subsided.

Fang Heng, along with Peng Xiaochuan and others, respectfully saluted Emperor Yuanchu.

"My son, please pay homage to your father!"

"Your humble servant, I pay my respects to your majesty!"

"Be flat!"

"Heng'er, you did a great job this time."

"Zhou Jueyin's identity has been exposed, and you should be credited with the first victory."

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful. I have only benefited from your contributions."

Fang Heng was very humble and did not take credit for himself.

Even if he really deserves the first credit, this credit must go to Emperor Yuanchu.

Emperor Yuanchu nodded with satisfaction, and there was a hint of approval in his eyes.

"Come to the Yangxin Palace for an audience."

After saying this, Emperor Yuanchu's spirit disappeared into the void like a dream bubble.

The condensed, seemingly substantial figure just now was still a clone of Emperor Yuanchu.

When Peng Xiaochuan saw this scene, he was so happy that he wanted to drink three cups immediately.

What I did tonight was a huge achievement for nothing.

Not only did he not contribute anything, he also witnessed the fight between top powerhouses.

Although the fight between Emperor Yuanchu and Lu Zangfeng was brief, it was still very beneficial to Peng Xiaochuan.

The Ninth Prince’s thighs smell so good!
……

Inside the Yangxin Hall, the lights are brightly lit.

The gilded dragon pillars make the hall look magnificent and golden, just like a fairyland in heaven.

The second prince stood with his head held high, his brows full of pride, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if he had already secured victory.

The right prime minister stroked his long beard, smiled and said nothing.

A rare look of joy appeared on his calm face.

Zhou Jueyin turned out to be the Right Censor-in-Chief Shen Yanzhou. This was a huge gain.

In addition to the Second Prince and the Right Prime Minister, the Crown Prince also received an imperial decree and came to the Yangxin Palace to discuss matters.

Seeing the second prince's smug look, the prince's mood gradually sank to the bottom.

Although I don’t know what the second prince did.

But the Crown Prince was not completely unaware of the Second Prince's actions today.

Is it...

impossible!
Zhou Jueyin is so cunning, how could he fall into the hands of my second brother?
The prince pondered secretly in his heart, frowned slightly, and the expression on his face changed constantly.

He suppressed the shock in his heart and tried to appear calm.

But his clenched fists revealed his inner anxiety.

On the dragon throne, Emperor Yuanchu, dressed in a golden dragon robe, had his eyes slightly closed, as if he was taking a nap.

However, everyone present knew that Emperor Yuanchu was not asleep, but his soul had left his body.

After a while.

With his soul back in place, Emperor Yuanchu slowly opened his eyes, and an extremely complicated look appeared in his deep pupils.

The second prince couldn't wait to take credit, he stepped forward and said with a bow.

"Father, I have captured Zhou Jueyin at Changhu Villa in the Western Hills."

"Zhou Jueyin's true identity is the Right Censor-in-Chief Shen Yanzhou."

"The evidence is irrefutable. Please make the decision, Father!"

Hearing the second prince's request for credit, the crown prince's heart skipped a beat and his brows drooped slightly.

Did my second brother really accomplish it?
Damn!

With this achievement, the Second Prince's party will certainly become even more arrogant in the court.

The prince felt a strong sense of uneasiness and restlessness in his heart.

After listening to the second prince's report, Emperor Yuanchu remained calm and spoke lightly.

"Zhou Jueyin is not Shen Yanzhou. You have arrested the wrong person."

Uh--

The Second Prince and the Right Prime Minister were stunned for a moment, their expressions seemed frozen.

The feeling of astonishment was like overflowing water.

When the prince heard this, he was delighted.

If he hadn't been in the Yangxin Palace and the situation wasn't appropriate, he would have burst out laughing. "Second brother, oh second brother!"
You try to flatter a horse, but end up flattering it on the leg.

What conclusive evidence? I think it’s just to exclude dissidents!

Humph--

"Did you catch the wrong person?"

"Impossible, Father!"

"Your son saw with his own eyes that Shen Yanzhou was colluding with the evil White Lotus God and plotting something evil..."

Without waiting for the Second Prince to finish his words, the Right Lieutenant quickly cleared his throat, signaling the Second Prince to calm down.

The Second Prince suddenly came to his senses and stopped arguing. He bowed his head and said:

"I know I was wrong, please punish me, father."

Emperor Yuanchu's words were golden and he would never speak nonsense.

Even if Shen Yanzhou is really Zhou Jueyin, after what Emperor Yuanchu said, he is no longer Zhou Jueyin.

When the prince saw this scene, he felt happy, as if he had eaten a chilled watermelon in the hottest days of summer.

"Second brother, don't try to be so stubborn."

"I've arrested the wrong person, so I apologize to my father."

"You are also loyal. How could the emperor blame you?"

The Crown Prince's sarcasm and harsh words made the Second Prince so angry that his face turned ashen, just like the weather in June, almost enough to squeeze water out of it.

Emperor Yuanchu looked at his two sons, who were arguing with each other, but ignored them and waited quietly.

Soon, the shrill voice of Eunuch Su was heard outside the house.

"Your Highness the Ninth Prince is here to see you!"

"Let him in!"

Fang Heng walked into the Yangxin Palace with steady steps, bowed to everyone, and his voice was clear and powerful.

"Meet my father!"

"Meet the eldest brother, meet the second brother, meet the right prime minister."

Seeing Fang Heng's arrival, except for Emperor Yuanchu, the other three people all showed surprised expressions.

Lao Jiu?

Why is he here?

Just when everyone was confused, the majestic voice of Emperor Yuanchu sounded in the Yangxin Palace.

"Just now, Heng'er discovered Zhou Jueyin's true identity."

"Heng'er, tell me, who is Zhou Jueyin?"

Under the shocked gazes of the Crown Prince, the Second Prince, and the Right Prime Minister, Fang Heng stepped forward, bowed, and said:
"Father, I obey your command."

After saying that, Fang Heng cleared his throat, his eyes bright as stars, and his voice steady as he began to tell the story.

"This matter has to start from a few days ago..."

Fang Heng told everything that had happened in the past few days.

The Right Prime Minister and the Second Prince looked indifferent at first.

They knew very well about the plan of pretending to be the White Lotus Goddess and seducing Zhou Jueyin.

But as Fang Heng continued his narration, their expressions gradually became solemn, and shock flashed in their eyes.

"...So, what happened at Changhu Villa was just Zhou Jueyin's plan to escape."

Fang Heng paused, looked around the hall, and seeing that everyone was listening with bated breath, he continued.

"His true identity is Lu Zangfeng, one of the thirty-six divine generals..."

Upon hearing this, the prince's face turned pale, his fists clenched, and his knuckles turned white.

A deep sense of uneasiness enveloped his heart.

Lu Zangfeng?
This is the best general under his command.

Together with Zuo Xiang, they are his left and right arms.

The left prime minister left the capital and cut off one of his arms.

Lu Zangfeng is Zhou Jueyin, are they going to cut off another arm of his?
The prince lost his patience, clenched his fists, and blurted out.

"Impossible. General Lu is loyal and devoted. How could he be Zhou Jueyin?"

The prince's misconduct was seen by everyone.

The second prince's eyes suddenly lit up, and the smile on his lips became more intense.

The frustration in my heart just now was swept away.

Instead, there is inextricable joy and pleasure.

Lu Zangfeng is Zhou Jueyin!
This result is more favorable to him than Shen Yanzhou being Zhou Jueyin.

Without Lu Zangfeng, the top general, the prince was like a tiger without fangs.

What's more, the competition for the position of Commander of the Five Cities has reached a fever pitch.

Lu Zangfeng is the most popular candidate.

He is Zhou Jueyin, which means he is out directly.

The possibility of Xiao Yi taking the position has greatly increased, with at least a 70% chance of success.

"Brother, do you know Lu Zangfeng so well?"

"Could it be that he has some connection with that beast Lu Zangfeng?"

The Second Prince's tone was playful, but also a bit cold.

With just one sentence, he planted a nail in the crown prince's way.

Sure enough, the prince's face changed instantly, and he glared at the second prince in anger.

"Second brother, please stop slandering me."

"I have absolutely no connection with that beast Lu Zangfeng."

Seeing the two men on the verge of a fight, Emperor Yuanchu shouted coldly:

"Okay, let's continue listening to Heng'er."

Hearing the order from Emperor Yuanchu, Fang Heng smiled slightly and then spoke slowly.

"Although I have suspicions, I have no concrete evidence."

"Lu Zangfeng is a top general. If he is arrested without any evidence, it will definitely cause unrest in the government and the country."

"Therefore, I ask the Supervisor for help to conceal the Zi Wei Dou Shu in the defense map."

"As expected, Lu Zangfeng was unaware and fell into my son's trap."

"Tonight, when the four defense maps are gathered together, it's time to close the net."

"Your Majesty, I cut off his flesh with one sword. I dare not take credit for it. It is all thanks to your Majesty's divine power."

After saying this, Fang Heng did not forget to flatter Emperor Yuanchu.

After hearing Fang Heng's words, the right prime minister immediately discovered a bright spot.

Fang Heng only said that Emperor Yuanchu beheaded his physical body, but did not say that Lu Zangfeng was executed.

So to say……

Lu Zangfeng's soul escaped?

A trace of hesitation appeared on the right prime minister's face.

In the case of Zhou Jueyin, the main contributor was His Highness the Ninth Prince.

However, being able to kill Lu Zangfeng in the end was also a great achievement.

The Right Prime Minister was thinking about who to send to hunt down Lu Zangfeng.

Just now.

Eunuch Su's shrill voice came again from outside the house, breaking the silence in the hall.

"Your Majesty, Fairy Mu, under the orders of the Supervisor, requests an audience with Your Majesty."

"Xuan!"

Emperor Yuanchu's voice was low and majestic.

The palace door slowly opened.

Mu Qianxue, dressed in white, walked into the Yangxin Palace with a cold temperament.

She is like a fairy from the Moon Palace, detached from the mundane world, so stunning that one can't take their eyes off her.

Even the Crown Prince and the Second Prince were slightly distracted.

Mu Qianxue walked lightly to the center of the hall, slightly bent her knees in greeting, and her voice was as clear as a spring.

"Your Majesty, my master asked me to bring this to Your Majesty."

As she spoke, she raised her hand and took out an ancient compass from her sleeve.

The compass was inlaid with complex runes, and in the center there was a slowly moving light spot, emitting a faint glow.

"This thing is a star-fixing disk."

"Zhou Jueyin was struck by Master's Star-Fixing Technique, leaving a secret mark on his soul."

"As long as you have the star-fixing disk, you can track the other party's whereabouts."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Yuanchu nodded slightly, with a hint of approval in his eyes.

"The Supervisor is indeed very thoughtful."

The right prime minister saw that the time was ripe and prepared to recommend a candidate to Emperor Yuanchu.

However, Emperor Yuanchu did not even give him a chance to speak and directly decided on the candidate.

"Order Xiao Yi to lead the Zhenhai Guards to hunt down Lu Zangfeng!"

Xiao Yi!

As soon as this order came out, the faces of the Right Prime Minister and the Second Prince changed slightly.

There was a flash of displeasure in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared as if nothing had happened.

Fang Heng heard this, his dark eyes flickered, and he thought to himself:
Father, oh, father!
The emperor's mind is still so cunning.

He had already seen through Emperor Yuanchu's intentions.

The prince lost the left prime minister and Lu Zangfeng, and his power was greatly damaged.

The second prince has an aura that seems to surpass that of the crown prince.

It can be said that the balance between the crown prince and the second prince was somewhat broken.

At this time, Emperor Yuanchu asked Xiao Yi to hunt down Lu Zangfeng.

His thoughts couldn't be more obvious!
It is to balance the second prince and the crown prince.

Since the crown prince has been weakened twice in a row, this time the weakening falls on the second prince.

Xiao Yi led his troops to hunt down Lu Zangfeng.

It not only means that the Second Prince’s most important general will leave Yujing.

Once Xiao Yi leaves Yujing, the second prince's influence in the court will be greatly reduced.

More importantly, Xiao Yi was eliminated from the competition for the position of Commander of the Five Cities.

The most important thing is that Xiao Yi himself might be happy to accept this order.

Lu Zangfeng framed Xiao Yi and almost made Xiao Yi take the blame for Zhou Jueyin.

When it comes to hatred for Lu Zangfeng, Xiao Yi is second to none, no less than the Second Prince.

Now that Emperor Yuanchu has given him a chance for revenge, how could Xiao Yi not accept it with pleasure?

Once Lu Zangfeng is killed, it will be a great achievement.

Even if he cannot become the commander of the Five Cities, he may be able to go one step further and become one of the Four Heavenly Marquises.

In order to appease and win over Xiao Yi, the Second Prince could not even say a word of objection. He had to smile and congratulate Xiao Yi for taking on this important task.

The second prince soon figured out the whole thing, and the expression on his face was as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.

He suppressed his dissatisfaction, forced a smile, and said with a bow:
"General Xiao Yi, I will definitely live up to my father's trust."

The prince felt inexplicably relieved.

Although he lost Lu Zangfeng, the second brother was not much better off.

I managed to win back a game and calm the prince down a little.

"Heng'er is both wise and brave. He has made an invaluable contribution in identifying Zhou Jueyin's true form. From today on, Fang Heng will be appointed as the heir to the throne."

The majestic voice of Emperor Yuanchu, with Xiantian in his mouth, echoed in the Yangxin Palace.

"Your Majesty, I thank you for your grace."

Fang Heng's mouth corners slightly raised, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

Enthroned as the heir to the throne?
My father’s reward is really generous.

I thought that by discovering Zhou Jueyin's true identity, I could enter the royal treasury again.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Yuanchu waved his hand and even appointed the heir to the throne.

The heir to the throne, unlike the prince of a county, has a real fief.

Although it cannot be passed on to future generations.

But a real seal is a real seal. If you manage it well, you will never be short of resources for cultivation before reaching the tenth realm.

"Congratulations, Ninth Brother!"

The prince spoke first, forcing out a congratulation, but there was a barely perceptible coldness in his tone.

"Congratulations, Ninth Brother!"

The second prince had a gentle smile on his face, as if he was truly happy for Fang Heng.

"Congratulations, Ninth Prince!"

The right prime minister bowed slightly, his eyes deep, as if he was thinking about something.

Voices of congratulations rang out in the Yangxin Palace.

Although the Crown Prince and the Second Prince were in a bad mood at this time.

But in front of Emperor Yuanchu, he had to show his brotherly love and respect.

After the congratulations were over, the right prime minister stepped forward and reported in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, since Shen Yanzhou is not Zhou Jueyin."

"Then Shen Yanzhou's identity remains to be ascertained."

"As the Right Censor-in-Chief, he colluded with the evil White Lotus God. He deserves death."

"Your Majesty, please order a thorough investigation."

Emperor Yuanchu nodded slightly.

Shen Yanzhou, as the Right Censor-in-Chief, inexplicably appeared at the place where Zhou Jueyin was arrested and met the White Lotus Evil.

If you say he has no problems, even a fool wouldn't believe it.

"I'll leave Shen Yanzhou's matter to you, Right Prime Minister, to investigate."

"Sir, obey the order!"

With a wave of his hand, everyone understood and left the Yangxin Palace.

After everyone left.

There was a faint smell of blood in the Yangxin Palace.

A cough sounded faintly.
