Return to the Kyoto town of immediately reported the situation to Mu Chunyuan. "Sir, two more demons have died in the Devil's Prison." "what?" Mu Chunyuan's face was solemn. Of the twenty-three demons above the supernatural power realm, nine had been killed by the person in the dark, leaving fourteen to go. "That guy?" "The demon's flesh and blood was completely devoured, leaving only a skeleton. The power of the demon marrow in the skeleton was also completely devoured." "Damn it, who did it?" Mu Chunyuan's face was extremely gloomy. Among the remaining fourteen people, there are two demons who have reached the level of Breaking the Sky Realm. If they are also killed and refined, it will be even more terrifying. He initially suspected that it was the black dragon Ao Feng from the Demon Realm, but Ao Feng was simply unable to break through the two layers of the fifth-order formations in Kyoto City and the Demon Suppression Division. Later he suspected it was the evil demon in the Black Abyss, but he had just fought with the evil demon's clone in the Black Abyss, and the latter could not have the free time to come to the Demon Suppression Bureau to kill demons and practice.

Mu Chunyuan hurriedly left the Demon Suppression Division and headed for the palace. Chen Xian had already arrived at Daning Palace and was reporting the situation to Emperor Ning. Emperor Ning had disheveled hair and a dark murderous aura swirling in his blood-red eyes. It was not until Chen Xian finished telling about his fight with Meng Xuanyun outside the Black Abyss that the murderous aura in Emperor Ning's eyes was suppressed. Chen Xian looked at Emperor Ning calmly. He also had magic power in his body, which had always been suppressed by the Xuanwu true essence. However, this time he discovered that the magic power in Emperor Ning's body seemed to be stronger than his. "Emperor Lu Wu took action personally, but failed to seriously injure the great evil demon?" Emperor Ning gritted his teeth. Chen Xian said: "Father, why don't we use the Axe of Creation to suppress the great evil demon first?" Hearing this, Emperor Ning looked up at Chen Xian, a cold look flashed across his eyes, "You can't use the Axe of Creation easily. If you use it, you have to go to the Black Abyss, and the Demon Realm is also determined to get the Axe of Creation. I will not use it unless it is absolutely necessary." Chen Xian said: "Then please give me some more time, father." Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Ning Chen, Ning Feng and other five princes returned to the palace. Emperor Ning did not summon them together, but summoned them one by one. The first person I saw was Ning Feng. "Father's condolences!" Ning Feng came to the imperial study and saw Emperor Ning with disheveled hair and bloodshot eyes. He immediately knelt on the ground and saluted. Emperor Ning hunched over, walked to Ning Feng, squatted down, held Ning Feng's shoulders with both hands and said: "Second brother, tell me, how did your fourth brother die?" Ning Feng was stunned by this question, "Father, wasn't Fourth Brother killed by a man named Meng Xuanyun?" The bloodshot eyes of Emperor Ning flashed with hostility: "Father is asking you, did you do it?" "Father!" Ning Feng exclaimed, and kowtowed, "Father, why would you doubt me? Why would I kill my fourth brother?" "Good question. Why? Second brother, you are the one I can't see through the most. If you really can't wait, then tell me that I am old and in poor health. I originally intended to pass the throne to you. But why did you secretly resort to trickery and kill your seventh and fourth brothers?" Ning Feng's mind was in a daze. He did not kowtow like Ning Quan. Instead, he stared at Emperor Ning in disbelief.

"Father, if you say so, I will speak from the bottom of my heart. I have never thought about the throne. I have always advocated that my elder brother should inherit your position. It's just that some people can't tolerate me." "I have some power behind me, but I have never thought of going against you, father. I will do whatever you ask me to do, but I cannot kill my brothers." "Someone must have framed me for this. If you don't believe me, you can ask Xu Sizheng to investigate me thoroughly. I will cooperate unconditionally." "If it is found that I am responsible, I will take care of it myself without your order." Emperor Ning stared at Ning Feng coldly. At this moment, Ning Feng was calmer than he had imagined, as calm as a simple child, which made it even harder for him to see through Ning Feng. Among his nine sons, Ning Feng was the only one he couldn't see through. The psychological quality is too strong. This made him very happy, but it also made him more suspicious of Ning Feng. "Have you really never thought about my position in your heart? Not even a little bit." "Father, who doesn't want to be a monarch? I have definitely thought about being the emperor of the world, but I don't have the ability to be a good emperor. That's why I have always admired my elder brother, and I also hope that the prosperity of the Daning Kingdom will last forever." "I am only fit to fight for my father and my elder brother and expand our territory." Ning Feng had a sincere expression on his face and his eyes were calm. Emperor Ning stared at him for a while, then suddenly laughed. He helped Ning Feng up and said, "Before, you were the seventh brother, and now you are the fourth brother. You have confused your father's mind. Don't take what your father said just now to heart." Ning Feng said: "Father, my fourth brother was killed. I am deeply saddened. I understand your feelings, but I also speak from the bottom of my heart." "There is one more thing that I want to tell Father." "You said." "Three days before my fourth brother was murdered, I was also attacked by a man in black at night. If it wasn't for Lu Jiangchen from the Demon Suppression Division, I would have left Father before my fourth brother." "Is this happening?" Emperor Ning's red eyes narrowed slightly. Ning Feng said: "I didn't think too much about it at the time. I thought it was just a small matter, so I didn't dare to alarm the emperor. But this matter is absolutely true. You can send someone to ask Lu Sizheng." Emperor Ning shook his head: "No, you are the person that my father trusts the most. It seems that the great evil demon in the Black Abyss wants to take revenge on our royal family and let us mess things up ourselves!" "Go ahead and let the third one in." "It's Father." Ning Feng bowed and left, but it was the third prince Ning Yang who walked into the imperial study. "Your son pays homage to His Majesty, please accept my condolences!" As soon as Ning Yang came in, he knelt on the ground and saluted just like Ning Feng. Emperor Ning hunched over and looked at the dusty Ning Yang, "Raise your head." "Father!" Ning Yang raised his head. But Emperor Ning's words left him stunned.

"Are you in a hurry to sit in my seat?" Ning Yang stared with his eyes wide open for a while before he reacted and crawled on the ground without moving: "Father, please don't scare me!" "You are getting bolder and bolder. You have made great contributions in resisting the barbarians in Yunzhou. What are you doing secretly?" Ning Yang was trembling all over, he did have ideas about the throne, but among the seven mansions, only his maternal family, the Zeng family, supported him. And the Zeng family was extremely low-key now. Although they also supported him, they obviously knew that they could not beat the other princes. Therefore, he no longer considered the throne and focused on resisting the barbarians. He didn't know why his father suddenly said this, but he was so scared that he almost died. "Father, I was only focused on resisting the barbarians in Yunzhou. I didn't do anything else!" A quarter of an hour later, Ning Yang walked out of Daning Palace with weak legs. It took him a while to calm down and look at the Sixth Prince Ning Hong: "Sixth brother, father asked you to go in." Ning Hong glanced at Ning Yang, and walked into the imperial study with his head held high. When he saw Emperor Ning, he did not kneel down to salute, but bowed directly and said, "Your son pays respect to your father." "Your Majesty!" Emperor Ning shouted coldly. Ning Hong didn't react at first, but when he saw his father's angry face, his expression suddenly changed, and he knelt on the ground in a hurry: "Your son pays homage to your father, father, please, please accept my condolences!" "Are you particularly happy?" Emperor Ning walked towards Ning Hong step by step. Ning Hong was so frightened that his face turned pale and he knelt on the ground trembling. "My son, I am not happy. My fourth brother was murdered by an evil spirit. I am heartbroken. How can I be happy?" "is it?" Emperor Ning stood in front of Ning Hong, his eyes cold: "You were in Qingyang, and often went to the Fang family and the Leiwu Sword Sect. Do you think I don't know?" Ning Hong's head was buzzing, "Father, father, calm down, I was trying to form a martial arts alliance. The Fang family and the Leiwu Sword Sect are the strongest forces in Qingyang. If I don't smooth out the relationship, and they interfere, I won't be able to form a martial arts alliance at all... Speaking of this, it's Old Nine's fault. It was my ninth brother. If the news of the Lizhou Martial Arts Alliance hadn't spread, I wouldn't have had such a hard time in Qingyang." "Are you in trouble?" Emperor Ning sneered. He really couldn't figure out what was wrong with Ning Hong. Two quarters of an hour later, Ning Hong walked out of Daning Palace with a pale face and cold sweat on his forehead. He held on to the stone pillar for a while before he reacted and looked at the eighth prince Ning Xuan, "Father asked you to go in." Ning Xuan nodded, walked into the imperial study, knelt down and kowtowed. From the second prince to the sixth prince, he could tell that his father called them in one by one to give them a lecture. Ning Chen stood aside, silent. Although he did not like the fourth prince Ning Li, who had bullied him, the man was already dead and all the grudges had disappeared. In less than a quarter of an hour, Ning Xuan's legs weakened as he walked out of Daning Palace. He took a breath and looked at Ning Chen coldly: "Get in quickly." Ning Chen ignored Ning Xuan and walked quickly into the imperial study. "Your Majesty, your son, pays respect to you!" Ning Chen knelt on the ground and bowed to Emperor Ning: "Your Majesty, I am in mourning!" "Looked up!" Ning Chen raised his head obediently, but did not dare to look at Emperor Ning.

"Old Four is dead, what do you think?" Ning Chen said, "Father, I am deeply saddened. The evil demons in the Black Abyss are rampant and have repeatedly challenged the dignity of our Great Ning Imperial Family. I think we should eliminate the evil demons in the Black Abyss and avenge my fourth and seventh brothers." "Well said!" Ning Chen sneered and nodded: "You are very capable, so take the Lizhou military camp to the Black Abyss to eliminate those evil demons." Ning Chen was slightly stunned, looked up at Emperor Ning, then quickly lowered his head without saying a word. "Waste, you want to covet my throne?" "???" Ning Chen was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding his father's thinking. "I have never thought about it." "Never thought about it? You are worse than trash." Emperor Ning stepped forward and grabbed Ning Chen by the collar. "How about you form a hundred thousand elite soldiers?" Ning Chen's face looked extremely ugly, and he told everything about the situation in the Lizhou military camp. Upon hearing that there was still a shortfall of 17,000 men, Emperor Ning snorted coldly, "It's hard for a useless person like you. Now I'll give you a chance. Tell me the truth, do you have anything to do with the deaths of the Fourth and Seventh Brothers?" "what!!" Ning Chen was shocked, and then he shook his head repeatedly: "Father, even if you give me ten courages, I still wouldn't dare to do it!" "Waste, waste, waste!" Emperor Ning pushed Ning Chen away and yelled, "Get lost!" "Your Majesty, please accept my condolences. I'll take my leave now!" Ning Chen didn't know why his father's temperament had changed so drastically. Perhaps the death of the Fourth Prince was a great shock to his father. He didn't dare to say much and turned around and quickly left the imperial study. Emperor Ning stared at Ning Chen's back, his eyes becoming more and more angry. He knew that the killing of the Fourth Prince had nothing to do with Ning Chen, but he still had to reprimand him. Three days later. Ningli was buried in the imperial mausoleum. Meng Xuanyun was still not caught, but something went wrong in Western Xinjiang. Emperor Ning asked the princes to return to their respective territories and asked Chen Xian to go to Western Xinjiang in person. "The evil spirit in the emperor is getting stronger and stronger, and it seems like it can't be suppressed. The evil spirit has already affected his character." The voice of Hei Lian rang in Chen Xian's mind. Chen Xian said nothing and flew towards the west. [The Holy Codex of Black Fire] was a fragment, and Emperor Ning would definitely have problems practicing it. However, this time he discovered that although Emperor Ning had a hunched body and gave people a feeling of weakness, in fact the loss of life had returned to normal. This means that Emperor Ning's injuries have fully healed, but his appearance has not yet recovered. Or perhaps Emperor Ning is unwilling to recover and uses such an appearance to confuse the princes. He was wondering whether he should remind Ning Chen. After thinking about it, he decided to give up. From what he knew about Ning Chen so far, he knew that he had never thought about the throne. After all, Ning Chen was not welcomed in the palace before. Now that he has the strength, he just wants to protect himself and dare not expand his ambitions.

Half a day later. Chen Xian appeared in the Tianxue Mountains in Western Xinjiang. The western border looks a bit desolate. Now it is May, and the snow on the top of Tianxue Mountain has not melted yet. In the military camp that stretched for six hundred miles, Chen Xian identified the central military tent with just one glance. Tang Yuan was sitting in the tent healing his wounds. After sensing the aura of a powerful man, he spotted Chen Xian with his spiritual eyes. He immediately stood up and walked out of the tent. "Chen Xian greets King Tang." Chen Xian stepped forward and saluted. Tang Yuan waved his hand, and all the soldiers retreated. He looked at Chen Xian: "His Majesty sent you here for support?" Chen Xian nodded. Tang Yuan took a deep breath and said, "Please come in, Prince Consort Chen." After walking into the tent, Tang Yuan asked Chen Xian to sit down and said, "There are two emperor-level masters in the Huang clan, one is Shi Chui and the other is Shi Huang Gong." "Both of them are at the minor level of Breakthrough. I can handle one of them alone, but it's difficult for me to deal with two of them working together. A while ago, I was attacked from both sides by them and was seriously injured." "I thought His Majesty would ask the Lu family's ancestor to come and teach them a lesson, but I didn't expect to send Prince Consort Chen instead." Chen Xian heard disappointment in Tang Yuan's words, and he was obviously not confident about his cultivation ability. "Minor success in breaking through the air!" Chen Xian murmured. Even the great success in breaking through the air could not hurt him. If Shi Beitian and Gu Qingyang had not joined forces before, he would not have been injured at all. Not long after, a man rushed in from outside the tent. It was Tang Can, who was wearing purple and gold armor. "Chen Xian!" Upon hearing that Chen Xian was coming, Tang Can rushed back from the front line as soon as possible. "Princess Tang!" Chen Xian stood up and smiled slightly. The last time he met Tang Can was when he married Ning Shiqi, and they haven't met since then. Tang Can has reached the fifth level of Wanxiang cultivation, and his aura is extremely powerful. "Greetings, Marshal!" After Tang Can spoke to Chen Xian, he saluted Tang Yuan. Tang Yuan didn't care. He glanced at his great-granddaughter, then looked at Chen Xian, and didn't say anything. Chen Xian asked: "How is the war going at the moment?" Tang Can said: "The Wilderness Clan has increased its troops by 200,000, and currently has 400,000 troops, while the Wilderness Suppression Army only has 200,000. In addition to the 200,000 elites I brought, we also lost more than 30,000 troops. Currently, our troops are not as strong as those of the Wilderness Clan." Chen Xian frowned. He had heard that the fighting power of the Wilderness Clan was stronger than that of the human race. Now there were less than 400,000 soldiers to resist the Wilderness Clan. It was no wonder that the Wilderness Suppression Army was defeated and allowed the Wilderness Clan to occupy 3,000 miles of territory in the western border. Tang Can smiled and said, “But now that you are here, you can resist an army of 200,000 elite soldiers.”

Chen Xian chuckled and looked at Tang Yuan to inquire about the situation in the military camp, such as how many people are in the Divine Power Realm, how many are in the Wanxiang Realm, and how many are in the Tiangang Realm. These people are the pillars of the army, and if there are enough of them, there is no need to be afraid of the Huang Clan. However, when asked, Chen Xian's face looked a little solemn. Among the 200,000 elite troops brought by Tang Can, there were no strong men in the realm of supernatural powers, but there were ten people in the realm of all things. Overall, the Zhenhuang Army was at a disadvantage. If it weren't for Tang Yuan holding the line alone, the Zhenhuang Army would have already fled back to Xiliang. (End of this chapter)
