Chapter 171: Xue Ye passes away.
Fifth Soul Skill: Phantom!
Long before Xue Ye held the banquet, Lin Han Ye had ambushed a clone in the Tiandou Palace.
The moment he released his martial spirit to confront Tang Chen, the clone moved.
Although he could not use the head soul bone skill because of the clone, with Lin Han Ye's control of spiritual power, he concentrated all his mental power on one point, and killing a low-level soul master like Xue Ye was as easy as eating and drinking water.
A moment later, a beam of invisible and intangible cold light shot out from the clone's eyebrows. It sank into Xue Ye's almost negligible tiny spiritual sea.
"There is murderous intent!"
As a Titled Douluo, Gu Rong seemed to have sensed something instinctively, but because of the huge difference in mental power with Lin Han Ye, he could not sense anything. Before the others could react, he immediately protected Ning Fengzhi behind him.
At the same time, he shouted: "There is an assassin, protect his majesty!"
The next second, Xue Ye screamed "ah" and fell to the ground. His eyeballs were turned inwards, his skin was pale, and he seemed to have been frightened to death. He died.
"Someone, come and protect the emperor, protect the emperor." Seeing Xue Ye fall to the ground, Xue Xing hurriedly called on the Royal Knights to protect the body of Emperor Xue Ye, but he hid under the table of the banquet at the first time, not daring to show his head, for fear of becoming the target of the assassin.
At this time, Gu Rong finally discovered the trace of Lin Hanye's clone because of the soul power fluctuations emitted when the clone released the soul shock just now.
"Where are you escaping!"
He dodged and rushed in.
The result was undoubtedly empty.
The moment Lin Hanye's clone released the soul shock, it dissipated.
"Seven Treasures True Body, go!"
Ning Fengzhi's reaction was also not slow. The moment Emperor Xue Ye fell to the ground, he released the Seven Treasures True Body and used the healing skill of the first six skills of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tower to treat Emperor Xue Ye.
As a result, this treatment was not a big deal. Once he was treated, he was scared to death.
Emperor Xue Ye was actually dead.
How could he die? How dare he die? How could he die in front of member of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect in public?
If he died like this, what would happen to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, which was already in a precarious situation?
There was only one Titled Douluo at the scene, Gu Rong.
If someone could kill the Emperor of Tiandou quietly in front of a Titled Douluo like Gu Rong in the heavily guarded Tiandou Palace, even the two peerless Douluos, the Great Priest of the Spirit Hall and Tang Chen, would find it difficult to do it.
In this case, would someone blame the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect for Xue Ye's death?
In an instant, Ning Fengzhi's heart sank to the bottom.
Now, his only hope was that Gu Rong could catch the real murderer and assassin.
At the very least, he had to fight him and make him appear in public.
At the same time, someone shouted, "Your Majesty. Collapse. Collapse!"
It would not matter if he didn't shout, but once he shouted, the entire Tiandou Palace banquet scene was in chaos.
It was not until a moment later that he calmed down under the intimidation of the Heaven Dou Empire Marshal Ge Long.
When Xue Xing saw Ge Long and his troops arrive, he finally got out from under the table, with a look of fear and hesitation on his face, "Marshal Ge Long, how is my brother?"
Although he had heard someone shouting that Xue Ye was dead, Xue Xing still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, because his position was given by Xue Ye. Once Xue Ye died, how could he have a good life?
Wait, why can't he have a good life?
When his brother fought for the throne, he didn't give birth to an heir in order not to leave a weakness for himself. It was not until he ascended the throne that he married and crowned the queen and expanded the harem.
Now, only the queen is pregnant in the harem.
It is hard to say whether it is a boy.
Even if it is, the king is young and the country is in doubt. Those royal relatives will not let a baby who is still breastfeeding become the emperor, and let the queen, an outsider, take power.
Other brothers were killed or demoted by their brother Xue Ye because they participated in the fight for the throne.
Looking at the entire Tiandou City, it seems that only his brother, Prince Xue Xing, is the most suitable to ascend the throne.
In this short moment, Xue Xing quickly changed his mentality.
What he had in his heart was no longer panic, but excitement and expectation, expecting Xue Ye to really die, and then ascend the throne himself.
Ge Long, who had just checked Xue Ye's physical condition, didn't know what Xue Xing was thinking. When he saw Xue Xing asking, he sighed helplessly, shook his head, and said, "Seal off the palace for me. No one with suspicion is allowed to enter or leave until the matter is investigated clearly."
After getting Ge Long's confirmation, Xue Xing was secretly happy. Then his eyes turned, and he knew that the time had come for him to show his ability. He changed his previous dandy image and became wise and mighty. He questioned Ning Fengzhi, "Master Ning, shouldn't you give us an explanation?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present, including Marshal Ge Long, looked at Ning Fengzhi.
Ning Fengzhi's heart skipped a beat. He, who used to turn black into white, suddenly felt like 'mud falling out of his crotch, it must be shit' and said seriously, "What is there to explain. Could it be that Prince Xuexing thinks that your majesty was killed by my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect?"
"It's hard to say. After all, some people have criminal records. Maybe they are dissatisfied because my royal brother values President Lin and plans to support the Soul Master Guild. Also, don't forget, you and Bone Douluo are the closest to my royal brother, and among those present, there is only one Titled Douluo, Bone Douluo. I ask you, where is Bone Douluo?"
Xuexing continued to question.
Although Ge Long felt that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect could not possibly murder the emperor, considering that Xue Xing was currently the only candidate to inherit the throne, he still followed his words and said, "Master Ning, call Bone Douluo over."
Ning Fengzhi suppressed his anger, exhaled lightly, and said to Ge Long, "Marshal Ge Long, after His Majesty was attacked, Uncle Gu went to the bedroom hall to hunt down the assassin."
"Well, we'll wait here. The bedroom hall has only one exit behind us. Don't say that we didn't catch him or that the assassin is missing."
Xue Xing said.
After a while, Gu Rong walked out of the bedroom palace. He didn't notice that the atmosphere was wrong at all, and walked straight to Ning Fengzhi.
Although Ning Fengzhi already knew the result, he still asked, "Uncle Gu, how is the situation? Have you found any trace of the assassin?"
Gu Rong shook his head and said, "I just searched the palace inside and out, but I didn't find any trace of the assassin. I guess the man must have gone far away. As far as I know, there are no more than three people in the world who can have such skills."
Prince Xuexing said, "The three people you are talking about should be the Great Priest of the Spirit Hall, Clear Sky Douluo, and President Lin, right?"
"Yes, there may be many Titled Douluos in this world who are stronger than me, but there are only these three who can attack and kill Your Majesty silently in front of me."
Gu Rong said with great certainty.
In fact, he wanted to talk about Lin Hanye, but considering that Lin Hanye could destroy the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect, he really didn't dare to offend him.
