Bai Yan was not surprised to hear the governor say that the thunder pool was about to be opened.
After all, the opening of the Thunder Pond every year is considered a major event for the Lingxi Sect, so it is normal for the Sheriff's Office to know the news.
It is understandable that the county governor has desires for Lei Chi.
When he reached his position, he tried every possible means to infiltrate the Lingxi Sect. Except for a few special places such as Thunder Pond, there was nothing in the Lingxi Sect that caught his eye.
But what was this second thing about? It actually made the dignified county governor look like this.
Bai Yan was really curious.
"Do you remember the third prince?" Zhou Tai asked.
Bai Yan nodded, he naturally remembered that unfortunate guy Zhao Tianji.
"Is the Sheriff afraid of him?"
Bai Yan naturally knew that because of what happened last time, Zhao Tianji's hatred for Zhou Tai and himself might have reached a monstrous level.
Zhou Tai did not immediately answer the question.
But he said: "The kingdom adjacent to Tianxin Kingdom is Luoshen Kingdom, and there are constant wars between the two countries."
Bai Yan was a little confused. He had heard about this matter, but he didn't know why Zhou Tai mentioned it at this time.
Zhou Tai added: "I received news that a big battle broke out between Tianxin Kingdom and Luoshen Kingdom in Zhulu Plain a month ago."
"Originally, this was a very common thing, and this war was initiated by Tianxin Kingdom.
To be precise, this battle was a feat prepared by Zhao Tianlong, the crown prince of the Tianxin Kingdom, to inherit the throne of the Emperor!"
Hearing this, Bai Yan vaguely guessed something, and his expression gradually became serious.
Zhou Tai continued: "But the news of the prince's personal participation in this battle was learned by Luo Shen Kingdom. In that battle, Luo Shen Kingdom sent several Dongxuan masters to besiege His Royal Highness.
The prince returned home with a serious injury. After returning, he could not recover for a long time, and he died suddenly and violently a few days ago."
After saying that, Zhou Tai looked at Bai Yan: "I said this, do you understand?"
Bai Yan asked strangely: "What you are saying is that after the prince dies, Zhao Tianji may become the new prince?"
Zhou Tai shook his head bitterly: "It's not possible, it's almost 100% him."
"Originally, the original Crown Prince Zhao Tianlong was the most perfect successor to the Emperor due to his martial arts skills and martial arts skills. No one could challenge his status during his time.
Then Zhao Tianji, a mere prince, is nothing to care about."
"But Zhao Tianlong died, and among all the remaining princes, Zhao Tianji turned out to be one of the best.
Moreover, he is the third in line of succession. Although the second prince in line of succession is also good, he was born with one arm.
How can the king of a country use disabled people?"
"So even if Zhao Tianji's succession may affect the fate of the country, the emperor of the Zhao family has nothing to do."
When Zhou Tai said this, Bai Yan was stunned.
Damn, that guy Zhao Tianji really counterattacked?
"So I said we are in big trouble. With Zhao Tianji's vengeful character, he will definitely take revenge without even thinking about it.
The power that the prince can mobilize is so strong. If he really goes all out, the entire Lingxi Sect will be overthrown by him." Zhou Tai said with a wry smile again.
"So I just want to inform Mr. Yanke in advance so that you won't be unprepared at that time."
Bai Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and asked again: "Can he arrive before the thunder pool opens?"
To Bai Yan, no matter what kind of power Zhao Tianji has in the future, it doesn't matter as long as he can enter the thunder pool safely.
Zhou Tai thought for a moment and said: "That shouldn't be possible. It is still the mourning period for the former prince, which lasts for one month.
Even if Zhao Tianji is promoted to Crown Prince in a month, there will still be many things to deal with, at least for another month.
At that time, the thunder pool had already opened."
"It doesn't matter anymore." Bai Yan smiled.
"It's better to make some plans early." Zhou Tai advised.
...
Bai Yan stayed at the Sheriff's Mansion for less than two hours and came out.
Zhou Tai invited him here just for these two things, mainly to remind Bai Yan to be careful about Zhao Tianji.
"If Zhou Tai continues like this, I will be a little embarrassed to face him."
Bai Yan smiled bitterly in his heart.
He killed his son, but he thought about himself in everything.
Although it was because of the connection of interests, Bai Yan still felt strange in his heart.
"But you really have to be careful about Zhao Tianji now."
He knew very well that once Zhao Tianji gained power, he would never let him go.
"Hey, can't you make me feel more at ease?"
.......
"Although you have changed your appearance, this figure from behind is you. There is nothing wrong with it."
At this time, on the third floor of a restaurant not far from the Sheriff's Mansion, a man wearing a golden mask was sitting in front of the window, looking at Bai Yan coming out of the Sheriff's Mansion and muttering to himself.
"Half of my life's hard work has been ruined by your hands. Now that I'm like this, you can't even think about it."
He said coldly, his words full of hatred.
Then he looked in the direction of the Sheriff's Mansion and said mockingly: "Huh, Zhou Tai, you are an old man. Someone else harmed your son, but you treated him as a guest. How ironic."
After a while, the masked man left a gold coin on the table and stood up to leave.
But when he turned around, he bumped into a waiter, knocking off his mask.
He showed a ferocious face that seemed to come from hell.
"ah!!"
Suddenly, screams broke out in the building, and all the diners on the third floor were frightened away by the face whose facial features were completely damaged, with not an inch intact.
How ugly!
But the masked man just calmly picked up the mask and walked out of the restaurant.
When everyone calmed down, they found that the waiter who bumped into him never got up.
He is dead!
"Killed!"
"Killed!"
"..."
The masked man walked out of Dongling County calmly.
Then he took out a whistle and blew it, calling down a blue bird that was hovering in the sky.
Stepping on the back of the bird, we headed towards the distant capital of Tianxin.
"Haha, Yan Bai, Zhou Tai, the third prince you both offended might be happy to know your true relationship.
I can't touch you now, but there will always be someone who can deal with you..."
...
On the other side, when Bai Yan returned to the Zizhuyuan of Xizhaofeng again.
A figure in white clothes was already sitting in the courtyard waiting for him.
"Husband, I am afraid that this little girl really hates you and loves you. She has asked to see you several times but failed, and now she comes directly to your door."
Seeing the person in the courtyard, Yue Chan couldn't help but joked.
Bai Yan's heart froze, and then his expression turned cold.
"Isn't it Senior Sister Luo's cultivation to enter and exit other people's courtyards at will when the master is not here?" Bai Yan spoke with sarcasm.
This person is naturally Luo Yanran.
"you!"
Luo Yanran was a little happy to see Bai Yan back at first, but when she heard such harsh words, she felt bad all over.
But after taking a deep breath, she forced a smile out of the corner of her mouth: "Who made you refuse to see her for nearly two months? She misses her so much that she has no choice but to beg Master to bring me here."
Luo Yanran asked to see her several times but was unable to do so. She did not have the same privileges as Su Yuexi and Lin Huoer who could go to Xizhao Peak at will.
I'm afraid that only Hua Xianzi can forcefully bring her up.
Bai Yan continued to taunt: "Senior Sister Luo, if these words get out, your image of a pure and pure goddess will be ruined."
Hearing this, Luo Yanran's expression suddenly turned cold.
"Let me ask you, because of you, do I still have an image to speak of in the Lingxi Sect?"
