Volume 1: Frostmourne Chapter 239: Rising Storm

Chapter 239: The Storm (Part 1)

There was a trace of exhaustion in Taxixia's eyes. The life drain just now consumed her quite a lot of mental energy.

Unexpectedly, although the third prince drank too much, his strength was still higher than that of the eldest prince Long Tian.

She gently flicked the clivia on the round table, and dots of yellow "pollen" scattered on her delicate palms. Under the magic lamp, the "pollen" was slightly transparent, and some crystal clear insects could be vaguely seen.

Wriggling in the "pollen" shell.

Tacitia said to herself with some obsession: "The poisonous poison conceived in the stamens, there is only a thin line between beauty and death. Mortals in the world don't know that the death of beauty is not a kind of sublimation and relief."

Before the third prince entered the house, she had already mixed the eggs of the poison mother into the pollen of Clivia. However, the effect of spreading the poison through the air was not very good, so she additionally used the skill Life Drain, and finally

It was to kill the third prince whose strength had just reached the level of a hero.

Killing without being seen - this is the terrifying thing about the witch and Gu master.

Life-draining is a magic used by the undead. It is a taboo in life. I never thought that one day I would have to use the power he left in my body.

She carefully put away the Gu Mother's eggs and glanced at the pale third prince's corpse, "My dear, do you think what I just said is right?"

The dead third prince seemed to have heard Taxixia's words. He rolled his eyes and stood up straight.

His eyes were dull, his face was full of lifelessness, his pale face had several torn holes, and he looked like a zombie.

Taxixia moved her fingers lightly, and the fingertips lit up with a lavender light, and several invisible thin lines extended to the third prince's body.

The third prince's already stiff and pale face immediately had a smile. It looked indescribably weird. He bowed and said, "The tower master is right."

Taxisha shook her head helplessly, when will my puppet turn on its intelligence?

She cut off the spiritual connection with the third prince. As soon as she stood up, her brain felt dizzy, as if the pain of soul tearing and mental distortion was coming in waves. Taxisha's beautiful face instantly turned pale, and purple lights lit up behind her.

Here it comes again, this damn curse

The pain became stronger and stronger, as if millions of insects were squirming in her brain. Taxixia crushed her silver teeth and sweat dripped. She endured the pain and took out a purple bottle from her arms, and pulled out the cork tremblingly.

He stuffed it, poured out a "medicine" grain about the size of sesame seeds, and swallowed it.

The pain gradually lessened, and Taxisha breathed a long sigh of relief. Her underwear was already soaked and stuck to her body. She was indescribably uncomfortable. She was a woman who couldn't stand the slightest bit of filth. She had to go back to the embassy to take a shower first, stroking her ears which were wet with sweat.

With a tuft of black hair beside her, she reached out and pushed open the window. The next moment, she disappeared into the night sky like an elf in the night.

Krispy Plaza——

Today is the opening day for the selection process for the head of the Chrissy family. In the Chrissy family, the selection process is a grand gathering that will last for a month or two.

There are three selections in total, all of which will be completed within one or two months. They are: a competition of the heir's own strategy, a competition of force, and a competition of team battles among his subordinates.

The competition method of strategy competition is a traditional sand table deduction. Today is just the opening ceremony. Each prince takes his subordinates to the square for a formality and then makes an oath to the gods. That's it.

Originally, Gu Nansheng was just a small viscount, but under the deliberate arrangement of the Sixth Prince, he passed the third-level enchanter examination at the Dark Earl Enchanter Guild the day before yesterday.

This news spread like a spark across the entire enchantment community in the imperial capital. A third-level enchanter in his twenties was enough to cause a sensation in the enchantment community...

However, compared with the uproar caused by Mr. Nan's incident, this incident really has little influence among ordinary people.

At most, some nymphomaniac girls dream of marrying such a rich, handsome, and status-rich husband.

At this time, a fence had been erected around the square, and 5,000 soldiers were divided into 500 squads to patrol the area to maintain order.

No matter who you are, you can come to the square to enjoy this rare event as long as you pay a ticket of ten gold coins. Ten gold coins is not a small amount, so there are not many people gathered in the square. There are about five thousand people.

Look, this is fifty thousand gold coins, a considerable number.

It is not difficult to blend in with the assassins in such a chaotic situation. However, there is no word "escape" in the dictionary of the Chrissy family. The head of the family sat openly in public, wearing armor.

, that posture seemed to be waiting for someone to assassinate him.

The current head of the Chrisif family is Rido Chrisif, who is Merlin's uncle and the biological father of the sixth prince.

Sitting next to Lidu were the heads of the other nine major families in the Netherworld. During the selection process for the head of the Krisif family, the heads of the other nine major families were present. This shows how high the status of the Krisif family is.

Gu Nansheng opened the Eye of Sargeras and observed these ten people one by one. All of them were second-level experts or above. Four of them were second-level peak experts. The strongest one was Lidu. Gu Nansheng couldn't see through it. He should have reached the realm of legendary heroes.

.

It seems that the Sixth Prince is right. He is probably the only legendary hero within the 20 million square kilometers of the Netherworld.

The eight royal children filed into the square to prepare for the oath-taking ceremony. The whole ceremony was dull and boring.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Gu Nansheng had his prosthetic hand remade. Today he wore gorgeous aristocratic men's clothing. The silk shirt was as white as snow, and the black dress embroidered with gold could not find any wrinkles.

He sat upright at the VIP table, and his awe-inspiring aura attracted the attention of many aristocratic girls, intentionally or unintentionally.

He was able to attract the attention of so many girls, not only because of his outstanding disguised appearance, but also because of his proficiency in magic.

Xieshuang's name is not well-known in the civilian circles of the Netherworld Imperial Capital, but in the upper class society, it has begun to spread.

Many big families had sent envoys yesterday, and a high-level enchanter was the target of recruitment by all forces.

Having a high-level enchanter means having high-level equipment, and having equipment can attract many masters to strengthen the family.

Although Xishuang has surrendered to the Krisif family, this does not prevent the major families from establishing good relations with it. No one stipulates that a senior enchanter can only create equipment for one family.

Maybe twenty years later, Xieshuang will become the third enchanter in the Netherworld who can create level 4 equipment, or even become a level 5 enchanter.

If you can make him owe one or two favors to his family while he is still young, he will make a lot of money.

Of course, it would be even better if the daughter of the family can be married off.

"Mr. Xieshuang! What a coincidence, I meet you here."

This is really a terrible opening statement. Today is the opening ceremony of the selection meeting. Almost all the upper class people in the Netherworld Empire have gathered here. What a coincidence.

However, after thinking about it, etiquette cannot be omitted. Gu Nansheng smiled politely. The visitors were a man and a woman, and the man who spoke just now was the man.

"Let me introduce myself, I am Xu Yao and Bo Shui, and this is my sister, Yun Rou and Bo Shui." Xu Yao pointed to the girl next to him. The girl smiled shyly and saluted.

"Nice to meet you." Gu Nansheng is not interested in these things, but he always needs to deal with it...

Xu Yao smiled brightly when he saw Gu Nansheng being so polite, "I feel that I fell in love with Mr. Xieshuang as soon as I met him. Calling him Mr. Xieshuang is too alienating. How about calling you Brother Xieshuang from now on? What do you think?"

Gu Nansheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This man was really thick-skinned, but Gu Nansheng's principle was that one more friend was better than one more enemy, so he would not offend anyone for no reason, so he said to Xu Yao: "Okay."

"Haha, Brother Xieshuang is such a cheerful person. You should take more care of me in the future."

"Each other, each other."

The two exchanged a few more polite words, and then the oath-taking ceremony officially began.

Gu Nansheng opened the Eye of Sargeras and looked at these princes and princesses. There were seven boys and one girl in total. Except for the seventh princess and the eighth prince who looked a little immature, the others were already over forty, and the age of converted warriors was over forty.

From now on, the appearance will not change much, and it will be difficult to tell the age at that time.

Xu Yao noticed that Gu Nansheng seemed to be interested in these princes and princesses, so he took the initiative to introduce them. Gu Nansheng listened word for word. Regarding the eight princes, the information provided by the sixth prince was probably the most detailed information in the entire Netherworld Emperor.

At this moment, Gu Nansheng suddenly felt a strange energy fluctuation. Since he opened the Eye of Sargeras, he has been extremely sensitive to energy fluctuations. Looking along this energy, he couldn't find anything special. Eight

The royal children knelt in front of the statue and swore an oath, and everything seemed very peaceful.

The energy just now seemed to have an aura of death. Could it be that there are undead among the eight royal children?

The Eye of Sargeras opened again, and the energy flow in the eight princes' bodies appeared one by one. Gu Nansheng was surprised to find that the energy flow in two of the eight princes completely stopped.

The energy in a normal person's body will flow along the meridians, endlessly, are these two princes dead?

This ridiculous idea made Gu Nansheng tremble in his heart. Judging from the movements and expressions of the two princes, they were no different from normal people. There was no reason for them to be dead.

Did they practice some special technique that caused the energy flow in the body to stagnate?

While Gu Nansheng was observing several princes attentively, a voluptuous figure passed in front of him, the black skirt swaying, leaving a faint fragrance.

Gu Nansheng turned his head and looked over, only to see a back figure with long black hair spread out, covering his entire back and hanging down to his waist.

Xu Yao stood up immediately when he saw this woman, "It's such a blessing to see the lady again. I'm so glad that I came to the square today, so I didn't miss the opportunity to see the lady."

The woman just smiled lightly, gave a slight salute and said: "Mr. Xu Yao said something serious. I would also like to thank you for introducing me to the eldest prince, Mr. Long Tian. Xia Xi will come to pay my respects one day."

When Xu Yao heard this, his eyes were filled with laughter, and he said in a "sexy" and "fascinated" way: "Then the young lady must come."

Xu Yao and Gu Nansheng were sitting opposite each other, so the look on his face completely fell in Gu Nansheng's eyes, which made Gu Nansheng curious about the identity of this girl.

Xia Xi is the dark saint Taxi Xia of the Witch Doctor Tower, but she used a false name in front of Xu Yao. Xu Yao should be grateful for this, because in the Netherworld Imperial Capital, everyone who knows her real name and true identity is already dead.

.

In front of the Gu Mother prepared by the legendary hero-level Blood Bath Mother, strong men below the second level have no ability to resist.

It can be said that it is easy for Tasisya to kill anyone.

Taxixia sat down elegantly. Gu Nansheng couldn't see her face. When she was curious, she suddenly looked back and smiled, and said to Gu Nansheng: "This gentleman is"

A heavy stone was thrown into the quiet spring water of the smile, and ripples spread out in circles. Even Gu Nansheng, who had seen many beauties, felt a little surprised. He really looked back and smiled with all the beauty, the sixth palace pink and white

Colorless...

But he was just surprised. He did not lose his composure. He smiled and returned the greeting: "Xia Shuang, a new little nobleman newly created by the head of the Chrissy family."

"Brother Xieshuang, no one objects to you saying that you are a minor aristocrat, but how do you let others live? A third-level enchanter in his twenties is just a minor aristocrat, and the heirs of a big family with mediocre qualifications are ordinary people. And we are like this

Isn’t it true that you can’t even reach people?” Although Xu Yao has not received formal education, he has worked in a big family for so many years and is relatively proficient in the art of conversation. These few flattery words are flattering.

Just right.

However, Gu Nansheng really doesn't feel anything about other people's flattery. He has experienced too many lessons in the Bloody City and Biluo City and has become immune. He has a habitual smile on his face that is unique to Xianshuang's status, "I

He's just a viscount, isn't he a minor noble?"

Xu Yao had a bitter look on his face, "Viscount is already a big man, okay? Even the sixth prince who introduced you is just a viscount, and I only got involved with a baron last year."

Taxixia was stunned and asked in an unbelievable tone: "A third-level enchanter in his twenties?"

She is also an intellectual-type warrior who has changed professions. Although her route is very different from ordinary people, she has personal experience of how difficult it is to practice magic.

For many things, talent alone is not enough; it requires the accumulation of a lot of practical experience.

"Just good luck."

"Mr. Xieshuang is too modest. By the way, did you just mention the Sixth Prince?"

"Well, I'm currently teaching at Chrissy College, and I'm considered a lecturer."

"So that's it." Taxixia seemed to be very interested in Gu Nansheng and asked Gu Nansheng many questions.

Gu Nansheng didn't mind chatting more with the beautiful woman. As long as it didn't involve his secrets, he answered everything.

Taxixia instinctively felt that this Gu Nansheng might become a variable in her plan, the sixth prince's right-hand man? I just need an undercover agent.

It is said that if you know yourself and your enemy, you can fight a hundred battles with no danger. Unfortunately, she asked Gu Nansheng so many questions but could not get out any useful information.

"Practice of enchantment requires level support. Mr. Xieshuang can become a third-level enchanter at such a young age. He must have equipment that is very suitable for leveling up? There are many words." Taxixia originally thought that young people are always willing to show off their skills, especially

In front of women, there were many times when Gu Nansheng refused to make innuendoes, so he had to ask directly.

"The skills and equipment are pretty good. It's mainly because I'm lucky." Naturally, it was not convenient for Gu Nansheng to reveal the artifact-level equipment, so he used this kind of truth to deal with Taxixia.

"Mr. Xieshuang is such an interesting person. It's a pleasure chatting with you." Taxixia's silver bell-like voice sounded, and she stood up gracefully, "It's time for me to go. I can enjoy this opening ceremony with Mr. Xieshuang deeply."

Feeling honored.”

Gu Nansheng stood up and returned the greeting. Since the gap between the two seats in the stands was not wide, Gu Nansheng stood up and stood close to Taxixia. He could clearly smell the intoxicating fragrance on her body - of course it was not body fragrance, but

A precious spice.

He said casually: "The spices on Miss Xia Xi's body are really the best."

Taxixia smiled and said: "Mr. Xieshuang smelled the sachet on my body. If you like it, I will give it to you as a souvenir."

Gu Nansheng wanted to refuse, but Taxixia had already put the sachet in his hand. The residual warmth of Taxixia's hand still remained on it. Xu Yao's eyes widened, full of envy.

The sachet is very exquisitely made, with a crescent-shaped appearance, made of white natural silk, and a maple leaf embroidered with gold thread in the middle.

At this point, if Gu Nansheng refused, it would only embarrass Taxi Xia, so he put it away and said, "Thank you, Miss Xia Xi."...

Tacitia smiled and left gracefully.

Xu Yao looked at Taxi Xia's leaving figure and shook his head, "Brother Xieshuang is so lucky. Miss Xia Xi obviously likes you, otherwise how could she give you the sachet? Do you know that she is

She is very arrogant and self-admiring. In the past few days since she came to the imperial capital, she has not shown any pretense when meeting ordinary nobles."

"So, she is no longer from the imperial capital? Where is she from?"

"I don't know about that. Miss Xia Xi is very mysterious."

"Oh" Gu Nansheng thought thoughtfully. He always felt that Xia Xi was a little too interested in him. She was obviously not the kind of nymphomaniac little girl who gets dizzy when seeing handsome guys.

Gu Nansheng quietly opened the Eye of Sargeras and looked at Xia Xi's back. She probably looked like a transition warrior in her 20s. Considering her age, she was already a genius.

Just as he was about to close the Eye of Sargeras, Gu Nansheng accidentally discovered that the sachet in his hand contained bits and pieces of energy.

Is there power gem powder inside?

No, although the energy is weak, it is constantly flowing and changing. This is clearly a characteristic of living organisms.

This seems to be the eggs of some kind of animal.

Could it be a poisonous poison?

The sudden thought gave Gu Nansheng a chill in his heart. Could this woman be the witch and Gu master who bought the eggs of the Mother of Blood Bath?

She wants to kill herself with this poisonous poison?
