The main hall of the Lu Jianyu walked in, smiled at the second prince Ning Feng and said, "Your Highness Prince Yun, the ancestor asked me to tell you that as long as you are in Fengtian territory, my Lu family will protect His Highness Prince Yun's safety, so Your Highness Prince Yun can go back without worry." Ning Feng was naturally happy when he heard this, but he was still a little unwilling: "Lord Lu, if I leave Fengtian Realm, won't Emperor Lu Wu protect me?" Lu Jianyu took a deep breath and said, "The ancestor said that although my Lu family stands on the side of the Daning royal family, we will not help any prince to fight for the throne, so Your Highness Prince Yun should give up this idea. Besides, leaving Fengtian Realm is Jingzhou Realm. My Lu family can escort you back to Jingdu City, but don't think too much about other things." Hearing this, Ning Feng took a deep breath. In his heart, he hoped that the Lu family would support him. If the Lu family supports him, King Tang and King Xiahou will definitely have no objection, and then no one will dare to oppose him sitting on the throne. However, the Lu family does not support any prince, which is fair to him. It seems that the only way is to find a way to pull Tang Yuan. If the Lu family does not participate in the matter of the throne, the only ones left are the Tang family and the Xiahou family. If these two families do not participate either. Although this is fair, it is not good. Because the eldest prince has the shadow of Tianwu Sect behind him, and there are two powerful emperors in Tianwu Sect.

It is still unknown who Wei Cheng, the old eunuch beside my father, will support. If it is the eldest prince, then the other princes will surely end up with a tragic death. "Lord Lu, I have one last question." Ning Feng was not willing to leave like this. He looked at Lu Jianyu and asked, "If a prince joins forces with a martial emperor to seize the throne, will the Lu family stop it?" Hearing this, Lu Jianyu frowned slightly, and at this time, Lu Tianxun's voice came to his ears. He stared at Ning Feng and said, "Your Highness Prince Yun, it's too early to worry. Even if something like this really happens, Emperor Ning will ask my Lu family to help. Your Highness Prince Yun should just go back." Ning Feng nodded secretly, bowed to Lu Jianyu, and strode away. Although Lu Jianyu did not answer him directly, he also said that as long as his father asked for such a thing, Emperor Wu of the Lu family would still get involved. In this way, it would be impossible for the eldest prince to seize the throne by force. …… August 12. In Daning Palace, Emperor Ning had disheveled hair, bloodshot eyes, and his body was burning with black demonic fire. His expression looked somewhat hideous and painful, and he couldn't help but let out bursts of roars from his throat. The old eunuch Wei Cheng stared at the palace door, his old eyes flashing with solemnity. He knew that Emperor Ning was practicing some martial arts, but he had no idea what it was. As he listened, there was no sound in the imperial study. "Your Majesty!" Wei Cheng came to the door and called softly. There was no sound in the imperial study. He called out three more times, but still received no response. He then bravely pushed open the palace door and slowly walked towards the imperial study. However, there was no one in the imperial study. "Your Majesty!" Wei Cheng spoke softly, but no one responded to him. There was a cold flash in his eyes, and his eyes were fixed on the breath flowing in the imperial study. Soon he sensed a trace of cold demonic energy. He gently grasped with his palm, and a trace of cold black air was caught in his hand. As soon as the black energy appeared, a burnt black color appeared on his palm. Wei Cheng's face suddenly changed. He was at the entry level of Breaking the Sky, while Emperor Ning was only at the entry level of Divine Power. The remaining aura could not possibly have any effect on him. "Is this... magic?" Wei Cheng's face was extremely solemn. The breath of magic was icy, but it was a cold flame with the power of burning and corroding.

The divine power in the jade sea activated the icy and burned skin on his palms to return to normal. Wei Cheng turned and left with a sullen expression. Prince Wu's Mansion. King Wu Ning Quan was drinking tea and talking with Sima Yu, Lin Yan, and Hua Tiangang. Not long after, a guard walked in quickly, glanced at Sima Yu and the other two, then came to King Wu and whispered in his ear. Ning Quan's face became extremely solemn when he heard this. He didn't say anything, but just waved to the guard and the guard retreated. "Your Highness, what happened?" Sima Yu asked. Ning Quan chuckled: "It's just a small matter." He looked at Lin Yan and said, "Has Xu Sizheng not tracked down Meng Xuanyun yet?" Lin Yan shook his head: "Meng Xuanyun's whereabouts are strange. There has been no news of him in the past month. The demon suppression bureaus in various regions are still looking for him. However, even if they find him, they cannot catch Meng Xuanyun with their strength." Ning Quan didn't say anything. He knew that Meng Xuanyun was not easy to catch, but he still had to catch him. "How is the current war situation in Yunzhou?" He looked at Hua Tiangang. The Hua family controls an army of 100,000 to suppress the barbarians, and they obey Tang Cheng's orders in the Yunbei County City. Hua Tiangang said: "After the third prince was killed, Tang Can led an elite army of 200,000 to Yunzhou, a total of 500,000 troops. At present, the major tribes of the barbarians have been dispersed and fled to the depths of the barbarians. There are still small tribes harassing the edges of Yunzhou and Yanzhou. It is estimated that it will take less than half a year to completely suppress the barbarians." Ning Quan nodded secretly. He still had complicated feelings about the barbarians harassing the Great Ning Dynasty. After they were suppressed, the Suppressing Barbarians Army became idle. Among them, 200,000 elite soldiers were Ning Feng's former subordinates. If the Hua family's commander has 100,000 essences lying idle, then the 200,000 elite troops will also be idle. Especially the Tang family. If the Tang family does not participate in the dispute over the succession, it would be fine. But if they do participate, it would be a troublesome matter. However, judging from the current situation, the Xiahou family certainly does not have time to participate in it, especially since Xiahou Ba has to guard the Demon Abyss and cannot leave it for too long. Ning Quan looked at Sima Yu. The Sima family also commanded a navy of 100,000, but the East China Sea City was still fighting with the sea clan, and it was unclear when the war would end. There are 200,000 elite troops in Hancheng, 100,000 in Zhenman Army, and 100,000 in Zhenhai Army. If the old troops in the military camps in various regions are counted, there are about 50,000 in Yanzhou, 50,000 in Qingyang, and 200,000 in Lizhou. However, the 200,000 in Lizhou are currently under the command of the Ninth Prince Ning Chen. Of course, Xie Zifeng still kept in touch with him and could be used by him at critical moments. At the very least, he still had 100,000 elite troops. There are also 50,000 of his former subordinates in Luozhou. By this calculation, he can control at least 700,000 troops. Ning Feng should have 300,000 men under his control, and Ning Yang's old subordinates of 100,000 elite soldiers will probably obey Tang Cheng. Even if they don't obey Tang Cheng, they have to obey their father. Not to mention that they are still in Yunzhou for now. However, some troops from Fengtian, Luozhou, Qingyang, Dongyou, Yanzhou, Xiliang and other places still obeyed the orders of the emperor, especially the 300,000 elite troops in Fengtian Realm, whose combat power was very strong. Xiliang also has 300,000 troops to suppress the wilderness. If you count carefully, my father controls nearly one million soldiers and horses. "Still in a weak position." Ning Quan murmured in his heart. If his father made him the crown prince, it would be fine. If not, then he would have to force the emperor to abdicate. After chatting with Sima Yu and the other two for a while, the three said goodbye and left.

Ning Quan immediately called someone to deliver a message to Wei Cheng in the palace, and at the same time sent a message to Tianwu Sect in Fengtian Realm. He didn't count the disciples of Tianwu Sect just now. If he included them, then his troops would not be 700,000, but at least 800,000. The key point is that Ji Changfeng and Gu Qingyang from Tianwu Sect both support him. Ji Changfeng and Gu Qingyang also blocked the 500,000-strong army, which at least intimidated the Xiliang Zhenhuang Army and prevented Tang Yuan from getting involved. It’s nothing more than delaying the Lu family. "almost!" Ning Quan murmured. Among all the princes, only Ning Feng could compete with him. Ning Hong, Ning Yan and Ning Chen simply did not have that strength. Even if Ning Chen had Chen Xian's support behind him, they could not compete with him. Tianwu Sect. The black demon Buddha light surrounding Gu Qingyang was extremely powerful, and the Buddha's heart relic in his hand was only the size of a peach pit, while his cultivation strength had already broken through to the minor success level of breaking through the air. When he activated the Nine Yang Secret Technique, eight balls of black flame appeared on his back, like eight black suns, looking extremely powerful. "Come in!" He put away his skills and the Buddha's relic and said to the outside of the hall. Soon Wu Fenglin walked in. "See Master." "what's up?" Wu Fenglin bowed his head and said, “Master, news came from Kyoto City that Emperor Ning has practiced magic skills, and I don’t know how deep it is, and the eldest prince said that he would not wait any longer, and spared the lives of Ning Feng and Ning Chen, and will deal with them later.” Gu Qingyang's eyes flickered: "When will we start?" Wu Fenglin said: "The person who came said to wait for more news." Gu Qingyang nodded coldly: "Let the ten elders come over to discuss." Wu Fenglin took the order and left. Soon, the ten great elders of Tianwu Sect, led by Su Qinghe, saluted Gu Qingyang. Gu Qingyang stared at Su Qinghe and asked, "How many disciples above the Jade Sea Realm are there in the sect?" "Reporting to the Sect Master, thirty-two thousand one hundred people." "Very good, immediately dispatch these disciples to Jingzhou secretly. Do not gather together, disperse and be on standby at any time." "Master, should we send all the troops out?" Su Qinghe's face was solemn. "We should go to Jingzhou in batches little by little. If we all go out together, it will make too much noise." "Yes!" Su Qinghe nodded. Gu Qingyang looked at the other elders, including Zhuo Yanting, and said, "Elders, please don't go out yet. Let the deacons take the disciples there." After giving the instructions, Gu Qingyang stood up and went to a quiet valley deep in the Tianwu Sect. There is a formation set up deep in the valley.

When Gu Qingyang arrived, two deacons immediately came out and bowed to him. "Uncle Master, Qingyang wants to see you." Gu Qingyang shouted into the valley. Soon, a vicissitudes of life voice came: "Come in." Gu Qingyang then flew into the valley. Amid the rolling clouds and mist, the formation opened and he walked in. The scene inside the formation is quite different, like a paradise on earth, with rich spiritual energy floating in the air. Ji Changfeng, wearing a beige robe, sat cross-legged in the air, emitting a dazzling brilliance. "Greetings, Uncle Master." After Gu Qingyang bowed, a look of joy appeared on his face as he said, "Uncle Master, have you succeeded?" Ji Changfeng retracted the golden-red light on his body, and there was a look of loss in his vicissitudes of life eyes. He shook his head secretly: "No, but my strength has risen a level, and I am getting closer and closer to the Heavenly Tribulation Realm." Gu Qingyang was delighted when he heard this: "Congratulations, Master." There was no joy on Ji Changfeng's face. Originally, he wanted to count on that drop of immortal blood to advance to the Heavenly Tribulation Realm. However, after more than three years, he only improved a little bit and had not yet touched the true meaning of the Heavenly Tribulation Realm. "What do you want from me?" He stared at Gu Qingyang with a frown. Gu Qingyang said: "Uncle Master, Emperor Ning is practicing magic and wants to bring disaster to the world...!" "Emperor Ning is practicing magic?" Ji Changfeng was slightly stunned, as if he had heard something incredible: "Is the news accurate?" "The news spread by the old eunuch Wei Cheng, he broke through the air to enter the gate, the news should not be wrong." Ji Changfeng narrowed his eyes. He did not expect that Emperor Ning would choose to practice magic. Is there any magic in the royal family of Daning? After thinking about it, he still didn't know. In the past, Taizu of Da Ning struggled for the world and collected many skills, both good and evil. But he had never heard of any powerful magic skills. "Isn't he seriously injured? Is he practicing magic to stop his life from slipping away?" "That should be the case, uncle-master. You don't need to go to Kyoto City. It's enough to delay Lu Tianxun. I will do the rest." Gu Qingyang said. Ji Changfeng frowned: "If Emperor Ning practices magic, then there is no need to keep him. As an emperor practicing magic, the world will sooner or later fall into his clutches." "I will hold back Lu Tianxun here, you just go and do your best. If the others in the Sky Breaking Realm are blind, don't blame me for being rude. Let them all go to accompany Emperor Ning." Ji Changfeng said coldly. Hearing this, Gu Qingyang felt very happy. His master's mentality had finally changed, and it was time for him to show his skills. After leaving the valley. Gu Qingyang asked Wu Fenglin to reply to Kyoto City. …… August 15th. Ning Feng in Fengtian City received the news that many disciples of Tianwu Sect quietly rushed to Kyoto City. At the same time, the Sixth Prince Ning Hong in Qingyang City also received news from Kyoto City. The news naturally came from the Yuwen family.

Ning Hong, who was drinking and having fun, looked a little solemn. The Yuwen family only controls a hundred thousand elite troops, and he has less than fifty thousand people in Qingyang Territory who obey his orders. Neither the Leiwu Sword Sect nor the Fang Family have made any statement so far, and have not said anything in support of him. The Leiwu Sword Sect seemed to have some ideas, but the Fang Family had no attitude at all, and they even planned to get involved in this matter. Ning Hong didn't have time to drink. After letting the Lord of Qingyang City and others leave, he packed up and went to Leiwu Sword Sect with valuable gifts. Whether it is competing with the eldest prince or saving the king, he must be prepared. August 16th. Lizhou Palace. Ning Chen's cultivation strength has reached the ninth level of Wanxiang, and under the guidance of the old blind man Yang Yu, he is currently researching and creating Wanxiang Tianjue. The old blind man has only recently recovered about 80% of his strength since he was severely injured by Lei Jianheng, and his injuries are no longer a problem. One day, Gou Dateng found Ning Chen. "Big brother." "See Your Highness." Gou Da Teng didn't even sit down and whispered, "Something happened." Ning Chen's face was slightly tense. Although Gou Da Teng didn't say what happened, he had already expected it in his heart, "Is His Royal Highness the King of Wu ready to take action against my father?" Gou Da Teng nodded: "The disciples of Tianwu Sect who are above the Jade Sea Realm have already rushed to Jingzhou and are scattered all over the place, ready to be called upon at any time." "There are still 100,000 demon-suppressing troops outside Kyoto. I heard they have pledged allegiance to the Crown Prince." "Hancheng still has 200,000 elite soldiers, commanded by the Fist Saint King Seal, which means there are 300,000 elite soldiers. There are only 10,000 imperial guards in the palace. Counting the people from the Demon Suppression General Office, there are only 12,000 people. I'm afraid they can't stop the eldest prince." Ning Chen's face became solemn and he immediately called Qin Fei. "Brother Fei, please go to Fulong City as soon as possible and tell Brother Xian that His Royal Highness the King of Wu is about to take action." Qin Fei's face changed slightly when he heard this. Are they finally going to take action? He immediately took the order and left. However, before Qin Fei arrived in Fulong City, Chen Xian had already secretly received news that disciples of Tianwu Sect were quietly rushing to Jingzhou, and the 200,000 elite troops of Hancheng were ready to move. That afternoon, Qin Fei flew all the way to Fulong City. "Brother Xian, something happened!" "I see!" Chen Xian looked at Qin Fei who came hurriedly and smiled, "Go back and tell His Royal Highness Prince Li not to act rashly and wait until the eldest prince really takes action." Qin Fei nodded and left.

Chen Xian immediately asked someone to find Wang Yan. "How about the promotion of 200,000 Fulong troops?" "Brother Xian, there has been some improvement but not that fast. There are only 50,000 people above the Jade Sea Realm." "Fifty thousand people." Chen Xian murmured, and said to Wang Yan: "Quickly go and invite General Xiahou Yu over." Wang Yan nodded and left quickly. There are not 200,000 elite soldiers in Fulong Realm, but the 200,000 demon-suppressing troops in Zhenyao Pass are all elite soldiers, and their combat effectiveness is very terrifying. He intends to replace one thing with another. (End of this chapter)
