Chapter 436: The Tribulation of the Heavenly Demon
"There's a good show to watch!"
This is the common thought of countless people in the anti-king camp. However, the imperial camp, including patron Wang Yang Lin and Yuwen Chengdu himself, had their faces darkened and were obviously worried.~,
The rules of the "King Contest" are quite direct and cruel. Before the finals, all participants will be disqualified if they lose. Until the finals, there will be a round-robin match. The losers can still continue to fight until the final ranking is determined.
Before, many people suggested giving the loser an extra chance to challenge.
Backer Wang Yang Lin replied in a simple sentence: Luck is also a part of strength.
This is reasonable, but now it's the imperial camp's turn and they actually let Yuwen Chengdu encounter the monkey demon Li Yuanba in advance.
If the invincible general known as the "Celestial Demon" didn't even advance to the finals of the "King Conferment Conference", it might really be a bit ridiculous!
Of course, Tianyao Yuwen Chengdu himself is fine, but the most important thing is the court's face and prestige.
It's fine if the imperial court can't seize the leader. If it can't seize even the "four princes" or even the "eight princes", the loss of reputation and prestige can be imagined.
"You know the real purpose of holding the conference, so there is no need to feel pressure! Winning or losing is not important..."
Although worried, the patron king Yang Lin pretended to smile relaxedly, nodded to Yuwen Chengdu in an encouraging manner, and spoke in a calm voice to comfort him.
Obviously, including Yang Lin, they are not optimistic about the heavenly demon Yuwen Chengdu. Otherwise, Yuwen Chengdu would not be a thousand-year-old man who has always been known as the second monster in the world without any change or controversy.
"Very good! This general has long wanted to learn the strength of the world's number one monster!"
Yuwen Chengdu was naturally aware of the thoughts of everyone present, including Yang Lin, but he was full of fighting spirit. He looked at Li Yuanba at Li Tang's seat with sharp eyes and said in a deep voice. Not only did he not show any worry or timidity, but he was obviously eager to try.
Still excited? Excited!
This is the demon!
No matter what others think, Tianyao possesses invincible fighting spirit and fighting spirit.
Li Yuanba, who was as thin as a bamboo pole, had shining eyes and was also full of fighting spirit. He looked at Yuwen Chengdu with excitement, and then looked at his elder brother Li Jiancheng!
With the status and strength of Li Yuanba and Yuwen Chengdu, they really have almost no opponents and can be said to be invincible!
It's a rare encounter, both of us want to have a fun battle!
However, since the beginning of the "King Conferment Conference", Li Yuanba can no longer remember how many times his elder brother Li Jiancheng asked him to be merciful, hold back his strength, save some face for his opponents, etc.!
Li Yuanba was too lazy to use his brain, but he was not stupid. He knew very well the significance and impact of this battle with Yuwen Chengdu.
"As long as you can win, just put in some effort!"
Li Jiancheng also had a headache. He smiled bitterly and gave a vague warning.
Li Jiancheng himself has a more stable, cautious, and low-key personality. Although Li Tang, who has stolen the Eastern Capital, is already the number one target of suppression in the Sui Empire, Li Jiancheng still does not want to completely offend the court, or create too much hatred with the court, lest the court mobilize troops at all costs.
Besieging and suppressing the rebellion, Li Tang obviously suffered a big loss!
"Um!"
Li Yuanba was obviously relieved. He was afraid that his elder brother would make him admit defeat or not be able to win, so he had to hold back, it would be easy to handle!
The majestic heavenly demon shouldn't be killed by one of his moves, right?!
…
"Who do you think will win, my lord?"
The Wagang seats, including Li Mi, Zhai Rang, and Xu Shiji, were all extremely interested in, paying attention to, and looking forward to this battle. Jia Xiong couldn't help but ask.
"Of course it's the monkey demon, the number one demon in the world. If he didn't have enough strength and confidence, he would have been shaken long ago!"
Zhai Rang, who had fought against Li Yuanba before, shook his head in response without hesitation, as if there was no need to consider this issue at all.
After a pause, he looked at Yang Lin sitting upright on the high platform with complicated eyes, and sighed:
"The name of King of Patrons is well-deserved. I admire your character, determination and fairness!"
Originally, Dong Gong Zhai Rang was a little suspicious and distrustful of his backer Wang Yang Lin because he was eliminated too early. Especially when his generals such as Cheng Yaojin, Wang Bodang, Shan Xiongxin, etc. fought consecutive battles and won victories all the way.
When he was making great progress, Zhai Rang naturally suspected that his backer king Yang Lin had tampered with the lottery, just to "drift" between him and his subordinates, and to suppress his reputation and prestige.
Now, Dong Gong Zhai Rang felt that Yang Lin had not tampered with the competition. It was indeed his bad luck that he was eliminated so early!
…
Outside the venue, everyone in Prince Wu's Mansion was overlooking from a high place.
"Who do you think will win, my lord?" Wen Renzhong looked at Wu Xin with great anticipation and curiosity and asked.
Upon hearing what Ren Zhong said, everyone here looked at Wu Xin.
Wu Xin thought for a while and replied in a hushed tone: "The patron king is right, luck is also a part of strength! Whether it is Dong Gong Zhai Rang or the Sky Demon General Yuwen, meeting the monkey demon so early is luck in itself.
The problem also means that they are having bad luck and lack of luck!"
"What my lord said...has my lord also studied the method of fortune telling?" Wen Renzhong looked at Wu Xin with strange eyes and asked teasingly.
"boom……"
As soon as Wen Renzhong finished speaking, Mr. Mingji gave him a slap on the head and shouted angrily:
"What do you mean? The way of fortune divination is an extremely mysterious and profound way. It is in urgent need of wisdom and vision, thinking, insight, knowledge, etc. Don't underestimate the lord, one sentence contains countless information and can even affect the world.
Big picture!”
"Isn't it just a matter of victory or defeat? Do you need to be so exaggerated?" Wen Renzhong has been studying with Mr. Mingji for a long time and has long been treated as a master. He doesn't dare to make too many mistakes, but he strokes the back of his head angrily.
Buping muttered.
Mr. Mingji looked at Wu Xin with apologetic eyes and shook his head...
He failed to teach Wen Renzhong well and failed to live up to his lord's expectations!
Wu Xin did not show off, and explained in a calm tone: "In terms of strength, the Sky Demon is not as good as the Monkey Demon. However, the Sky Demon is arrogant and will never admit defeat, let alone give up easily. In this way..."
Half of what I said, I didn’t say it on purpose.
Changsun Wuji suddenly realized and took the initiative to take the words, adding: "In this way, to determine the outcome, the demon will either die or be injured, and it will never be a minor injury. This will affect the imperial court's plans, and then affect the imperial court and the government.
If the relationship between Li and Tang spreads, it will affect the pattern of the world."
"Not bad!" Wu Xin smiled and nodded approvingly.
"Did you hear that? You idiot!" Mr. Mingji shouted as if he hated iron.
Wen Renzhong curled his lips and muttered: "Everyone knows this, I just don't think about it for now! What's the big deal..."
Wu Xin ignored Wen Renzhong and solemnly ordered: "Send a golden-armored guard to keep an eye on the sky demon. Now he is in bad luck. The monkey demon is not stupid, and he cannot and does not dare to kill the sky demon in public. But, next, wait.
The imperial plan is unfolding, and the Sky Demon is likely to fall as a result... What a pity! Be prepared to rescue at any time!"
This is Wu Xin's speculation based on his past life memories, and he dare not say anything specific.
However, regardless of the friendship between Wu Xin and Yuwen Chengdu, or the value of Yuwen Chengdu itself, including Yuwen Chengdu's kindness, Wu Xin will not let him fall easily, and he will do his best to save him if he can!

I'm sorry! Yesterday was the Dragon Boat Festival, I had too many things to do, and I drank too much in the evening and didn't have time. I will make up for it this month. I currently owe three chapters, so I apologize! (To be continued.)
