Ye Rong issued the order, and the two personal guards were about to inform Ling Qianli, when suddenly Xue Tong's ears twitched and his expression changed.
"Someone has entered the valley"
Ye Rong's face turned cold. The two personal guards, who had been following him since childhood, leaned to the left and right to protect Ye Rong behind him.
Several other people in the team also quickly gathered around after hearing the news.
Ling Qianli, who was hunting the spirit beasts, seemed to have sensed the crisis. After a few ups and downs, he rushed back to the team. Everyone in the team gathered in an open space in the valley.
"Hahaha, this world of confusion is indeed very small. Fourth brother, I never thought that our brothers would meet in this place." Ye Dai took the lead and strode in from the entrance.
And behind him, followed a large number of people. There were nine people in his own team, plus the third prince Ye Zhengyou.
The two teams combined totaled seventeen people.
Among these seventeen people, the eldest prince Ye Dai has a warrior at the second level of the spiritual realm, plus three warriors at the first level of the spiritual realm. Ye Zheng also has a warrior at the first level of the spiritual realm.
In addition, there are four half-step spiritual realms.
There are nine spiritual realm warriors plus a half-step spiritual realm, which is more than half of the team.
The other eight, including Ye Dai and Ye Zheng, are all at the peak of the True Qi Realm, and their combat effectiveness is not weak.
Ye Rong felt secretly awestruck when he saw Ye Dai and Ye Zheng getting together.
"Brother, the road is facing the sky, everyone goes to one side. We are hunting spiritual beasts here, you are not trying to get in the way, are you?"
Ye Rong smiled and said: "This spiritual beast has extremely high cultivation. Our team can't handle it. It just so happens that you have many people and many experts, so maybe we can give it a try."
Ye Dai looked at Ye Rong with a half-smile.
"Fourth, stop pretending. Do you think we came to this valley to compete with you for spiritual beasts?" Ye Zheng asked with a sneer.
"Third brother, what do you mean?" Ye Rong's face darkened.
"Don't you think this valley is very quiet and has good feng shui? It would be great as your burial place, right?" Ye Zheng smiled grimly.
"Brother, is this why you came?" Ye Rong stared at Ye Dai.
Ye Dai smiled lightly and said: "Fourth, if you are as honest as before and don't make trouble, I won't suppress you. However, you are not honest and go against me time and time again. In the royal capital, you are even more stubborn.
You want to steal the limelight from me. Tell me, how do you want me to see you?"
"Brother, you and I are both of the blood of our father, and there is fair competition between brothers. Could it be that, as the eldest brother, you don't have the capacity to accept competition from brothers?"
"Fair competition? Why do you compete with me? I, Ye Dai, am the eldest son in the direct line, and my mother's family has been the third generation of ministers, with great power. Since I was born, there have been countless opportunities waiting for me, and I am destined to succeed my father.
Position. Every step I take is paved, heading towards the Dragon Seat. You are a bastard born to a side concubine. In addition to having half the blood of your father, what else do you have? Why do you follow me?
Should I fight?"
There are no outsiders here, and it's not in the royal capital. Ye Dai simply tore off his face and stopped pretending.
"Brother, is this your qualification theory? If you are destined to succeed your father as soon as you are born, what do you want us princes to do?"
"That's why he had you just to satisfy his animal desires." At this moment, Ye Dai didn't even have the slightest respect for his father, the King of the Kingdom.
After Ye Zheng heard this, a hint of gloom flashed across his face, but he put it away well and hid it.
"So, you are determined to kill me today?" Ye Rong asked coldly.
"You're right. But for the sake of our brothers, I can give you a chance to commit suicide and apologize." Ye Dai said with a sinister smile, "If you wait for us to take action, you may have to suffer some minor hardships. I promise.
, I won’t let you die happily.”
"Okay, he is indeed his father's good son, and he is indeed a decent prince. Ye Dai, I can see through you."
"Haha, so what if you see through me? So what if you disguise yourself well? In the face of absolute power, all those disguises you had before are completely gone. Now I can completely crush you with just a wave of my hand."
Ye Rong glanced at Ye Zheng: "Third brother, when you become his accomplice, have you ever thought that your today will be your tomorrow? Do you think he will let you sleep soundly beside the bed?"
Ye Zheng laughed loudly: "Fourth brother, do you think it will be useful for me to sow discord at this time? I am not interested in the position of the prince at all. I also admit that I am far inferior to my elder brother in all aspects. What should I do with him?
He wants to fight? Since you can't fight, you might as well be more sensible and do your part well. Those who know the current affairs are heroes. You are just too ignorant of the current affairs."
Ye Dai nodded very appreciatively, obviously very satisfied with Ye Zheng's statement.
Ye Rong sighed softly, looked at Ling Qianli, and then at the two personal guards.
Ling Qianli said calmly: "Don't look at me. If you treat me as a national scholar, I will naturally treat you as a national scholar in return. I will not abandon you in anger."
"Swear to protect the Fourth Prince to the death." The two guards also spoke firmly.
Xue Tong sighed, grabbed the Blood Demon Bow in his hand, and made a gesture of fighting to the death.
Even if you understand that there is no hope in this battle, in the world of warriors, there will never be such a thing as surrendering.
"Ye Rong, are you really planning to resist and fight to the death?" Ye Dai shouted.
"Ye Dai, if you want me to die, I can die. But these people have little to do with me. They are just a temporary team. Why do you need to kill them all?"
"Haha, fourth child, at this moment, are you still playing this hypocritical game with me? Do you think I will be moved by you and let them go?"
Ye Dai's face darkened: "Don't be naive. If they follow you, it is an original sin and a capital crime. One last question to you, should you commit suicide or let me kill you?"
Ye Rong's face was full of bitterness: "Everyone, I didn't expect that this time I would implicate you. Once the war starts, leave me alone. If you have a chance, escape."
"Xue Tong, you have a clear mind. If you can escape during the war, go to Jiang Chen or Miss Dan Fei.
Xue Tong sighed, looking at the opponent's posture, it was obviously impossible to escape.
"Fourth Prince, it's useless to say anything now. Let's fight to the death." Xue Tong's face showed the determination to fight to the death.
fight to the death
Ye Rong drew out his long sword and shouted loudly: "Ye Dai, you have always claimed to be the proud son of heaven, claiming to be more powerful than us, but do you have the courage to fight with me alone? Otherwise, even if you win with more, you will win with less.
Even if you win, I won't accept it, and other princes won't accept you either."
"Fight alone? Are you worthy?" Ye Dai did not accept this trick at all and ordered loudly, "Kill him, whoever takes his head will be granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households when I ascend the throne."
Ye Zheng also shouted: "Kill if you don't leave anyone alive."
At this moment——
bang bang bang
Suddenly, a harsh sound of applause came from among the trees in the valley.
"Who is it?" The battle situation that was about to start was suddenly broken by the harsh applause. All eyes looked towards the place where the sound came from.
Among the trees, two figures swept out and landed directly in Ye Rong's camp.
One of them had a sarcastic smile on his face, and he was none other than Jiang Chen. The other one had an expressionless and indifferent face, with a layer of frost covering his face, but who else could he be if she wasn't Concubine Dan?
"Jiang Chen?" Ye Dai's eyes showed disbelief, and at the same time, his eyes were full of anger, directed at Liu Can in Qianlan Beigong, "Didn't you say that you were staring at them and they weren't even around here? ?”
Liu Can's eyes were also filled with the color of seeing a ghost.
This... how is this possible? I clearly detected them, but they were not nearby at all. Why did they appear here after not seeing them for two or three days? And how did they find Ye Rong's team?
"My eldest prince, they were indeed not with Ye Rong's team before. Did they meet by chance?" Liu Can explained with a grimace.
"Trash" Ye Dai cursed in a low voice.
If only Jiang Chen appeared, Ye Dai would not be angry, but would be very happy. But when Jiang Chen appeared and Dan Fei was added, the situation was completely different.
When Jiang Chen appears, he can kill Jiang Chen as well. This is a good thing that he can only hope for.
But with the addition of Concubine Dan, although Ye Dai was ruthless, he had always maintained a sense of awe and flattery towards Concubine Dan. If he wanted him to kill Concubine Dan and silence her, he really couldn't make up his mind at this moment.
"Liu Can, stop pretending. You deliberately left many loopholes along the way so that I could follow you. Isn't that just so that I can find you?"
Liu Can's face changed greatly: "Jiang Chen, don't slander me. When did I leave a loophole, and when did I deliberately lure you here?"
Jiang Chen smiled and said nothing. Naturally, he didn't follow the flaw left by Liu Can, but he left a strange medicinal powder on Liu Can's body, allowing him to follow the smell all the way.
The reason why he said this was obviously to embarrass Liu Can and sow discord between Liu Can and Ye Dai.
When Ye Dai heard this, his face turned cold as expected: "Liu Can, what do you mean? Could it be that you lured them here on purpose?"
Liu Can panicked: "Eldest Prince, do you believe his lies?"
"Liu Can, do you dare to do this? Are you bringing me here because you want us to fight against each other so that you can reap the benefits?"
Liu Can cursed loudly: "Jiang Chen, I'm not a prince, so I'm not a prince, so what's the point of reaping the benefits?"
"Who knows? Maybe, you took refuge in Second Prince Ye Qiao? Today's situation was planned by Second Prince Ye Qiao?" Jiang Chen chuckled.
Ye Dai's expression became more and more ugly, and his eyes looking at Liu Can became even colder.
