Volume 16, Chapter 16 [The Taoist retreats in shock]
"Master Immortal, have mercy on me..." Xiao Hei immediately knelt down and begged for mercy. He was a very realistic person. Knowing that he was no match for Wang Rui, he simply surrendered.
Wang Rui sucked the medicine he had just refined into his hand through the air, and after a slight sniff, he realized that it was a very overbearing medicine. Even a monk would find it difficult to resist this temptation, and would be tempted to make mistakes.
His expression suddenly became extremely cold. Once He Na was forced to drink this potion, the consequences would be disastrous. Even if Wang Rui could massacre the entire palace, it would not help.
"The woman you are detaining is my woman. Tell me everything you know. If your words do not satisfy me, then you will have no choice but to be reincarnated in advance." Wang Rui had already converted to earth-based skills at this time, releasing
Several earth elements interlocked to restrain Xiao Hei, and then he used the power of the earth elements to create a futon under him and sat on it.
Xiao Hei felt the power coming from the earthen buckles on his neck and body limbs. He had no doubt that as long as Wang Rui thought about it, he would die on the spot. Therefore, he did not dare to hold anything back and racked his brains to tell what he knew.
Everything was said.
It turned out that Augus was provoked by a person to attack Wang Rui and the people around him. This person was quite familiar to him, that is Modwell.
After Modwell was rescued, he quickly found out about Wang Rui's whereabouts, so he rushed to Skyfire City, contacted Prince Augus through the connections behind him, and used a borrowed knife to kill someone.
However, Augus also had his own considerations, especially when he heard that his strong competitor, Princess Siqi, actually had a deep relationship with Wang Rui, so he subconsciously agreed with the plan, hoping to kidnap and humiliate Wang Rui's Taoist companion.
To achieve the purpose of attacking Princess Siqi.
"It seems that I have no choice but to jump into this whirlpool." Wang Rui glanced at the palace with disgust, and then thought about being in this palace now.
In fact, he could just leave, but now he has developed a grudge against the Augus prince. If he just leaves, it will definitely affect Emerald City, Fire Phoenix City and even Fire Silkworm Village, Emerald City
It's nothing, but the latter two, especially Huocan Village, are still a habitat deep in his heart, so he doesn't want to cause turmoil or even destruction of the village due to his own reasons.
Xiao Hei looked at Wang Rui with a dry mouth, hoping that he would let him go. Wang Rui randomly popped out a spiritual energy and fell on him. He immediately passed out and would not wake up for several hours. When he woke up, he would
He will realize that everything has turned upside down, and he will not dare to tell the truth because he has betrayed his master.
Wang Rui lowered his head and looked at the tube of potion in his hand, and suddenly showed a sneer. Since he couldn't make amends with this prince, he would just destroy him. Killing him would not make much sense, but it would make himself hated by the Fire Phoenix Dynasty.
Rather than chasing him down, it would be better to use this potion to embarrass the prince in public and completely miss out on the throne.
Wang Rui has basically learned some inside information. The emperor of the Fire Phoenix Dynasty is currently seriously ill and will die soon, so the issue of heirs has been put on the agenda. Unfortunately, the emperor's descendants are all useless, and none of them have reached the level of general.
Level, hardly qualified for big responsibilities, and Augus is one of them who barely excels.
However, human nature is always selfish. Even if one's offspring is not outstanding, it does not prevent him from becoming the heir, so Augus, who is ranked seventeenth, became a potential heir.
However, the one who is calling for the loudest right now is not him, but Princess Siqi, who has guarded the land of Beiyan for decades and prevented the demon army from going south. Many forces hope that she can become the future Fire Phoenix Empress. Only in this way can they win the battle between the four countries.
Don't fall behind in the fierce competition among the great dynasties, otherwise you will be captured by the other three great dynasties sooner or later.
It can be said that Prince Augus and Princess Siqi are currently the two most important opponents competing for the heir.
Prince Augus has received many connections from the emperor, so he has a slight upper hand for the time being. Princess Siqi is more supported by the line of military commanders, while the line of civil servants is still in a neutral wait-and-see manner. The prominent representative among them is Pombel.
Lei Yun Wenxiang, the eldest son of the Duke's Palace.
If Lei Yun can express his support for Princess Siqi, then her strength will completely surpass Prince Augus. Even the emperor will have to agree, otherwise the Fire Phoenix Dynasty will completely lose control of the civil strife. This is something no force wants to see.
.
After making up his mind, Wang Rui continued to enter the "color-changing" state of the virtual phase robe, quickly came to the magic barrier, summoned the Ice Spirit Sword and Shield, facing the magic barrier set up by the Danjie monks, he could only use magic weapons to deal with it.
destroy.
Boom!
The magic barrier only withstood two attacks and then shattered. He Na was surprised to see Wang Rui and threw herself into his arms. Wang Rui took her away quickly, which also alarmed the people in the palace, but soon these
Everyone is trapped inside by the earth-type barrier. With the strength of these people, there is no way they can even think about leaving.
"So you're not dead!" The Taoist from before felt that the magic barrier he had set up was broken, and rushed over immediately. He happened to see Wang Rui and He Na standing in a courtyard in the center of the temple, seemingly waiting.
he.
"Which sect or immortal alliance in Dongxuanzhou are you from?" Wang Rui raised his head and asked.
The Taoist looked at Wang Rui and didn't recognize him, but he always felt that this person seemed familiar. Wang Rui had changed some of his appearance features, such as the color of his hair, which he used magic to change.
"Haha, just asking, I'll kill you." After saying that, the Taoist opened his mouth and spit out a beam of light, which quickly turned into a hammer. The hammer was strong in the wind, and became as big as a hill, and then pressed towards Wang Rui.
Come down.
Wang Rui seemed to be holding something in his hand, but he couldn't see it, and the Taoist didn't care. He felt that he was pretending. After all, he had taken away Wang Rui once before, so he had a psychological advantage.
The hammer struck, bringing up a blast of wind pressure that caused the hard ground to begin to crack.
The Ice Spirit Sword and Shield flew out, expanded rapidly, and blocked it.
Bang!
There was a loud noise, and the hammer hit the shield, but to the Taoist's surprise, the shield was not smashed.
The unwilling Taoist continued to control the hammer and kept smashing it down, but the shield was still undamaged, and a blast of cold air was released, making the hammer slower and slower. Each time the Taoist controlled the hammer, he needed to consume more spiritual power.
After a while, the Taoist felt weak. Not only had his spiritual power been greatly depleted, but his physical strength and energy had also dropped drastically. But when he looked at Wang Rui, he seemed to be fine.
"How is it possible?" The Taoist couldn't believe it and began to think about retreating. At the same time, a spiritual light shot out from his sleeves and turned into a yellow bird, flying towards the outside of the palace.
But soon, the yellow bird was stopped by the earth barrier and could not escape at all.
He reached out and touched the lining of his chest, intending to take out a pill to restore his spiritual power and drink it. However, he suddenly felt a pain in his wrist. The pill fell and blood spattered. From the direction of his wrist, he felt
Shocked.
There was clearly a sharp sword blade slicing across his wrist, but he couldn't see what kind of weapon it was.
The Taoist hurriedly threw something out, which was a talisman. It burned quickly and turned into a ball of light to cover himself. Then he took out a few tubes of medicine and used them, which immediately turned into various spells and several early-stage pill-forming pills.
The monster pounced on Wang Rui.
He himself quickly turned around and flew away. The hammer magic weapon was directly taken back by him, and then he smashed towards the barrier, trying to open a bloody path.
Faced with the power of the potion, Wang Rui gave the Ice Spirit Sword and Shield to He Na and asked her to protect herself. At the same time, he took out the Soul Prisoner Tower and released the pill-forming level soul generals to fight against the monsters.
It's hard to tell the winner.
He himself picked up the invisible sword and chased after him. This person was not simple, and he didn't know which sect he belonged to.
The Taoist used the hammer magic weapon to attack the barrier, and found that although the barrier was loose, it would take a certain amount of time to completely break it, so he used the hammer to attack the barrier while turning back to deal with Wang Rui.
Fortunately, when he briefly got rid of Wang Rui, he swallowed a pill to restore his spiritual power. At this time, his spiritual power had been restored by 20 to 30%.
Suddenly, a sense of crisis came over him. The Taoist looked at Wang Rui in shock, and found that he was holding some weapon in his hand, and it was striking at him. It looked like he was holding a sword.
Click!
When this sword was slashed, Wang Rui's spiritual power was injected into it, and its power was astonishing. The Taoist's protective shield could not withstand the blow and shattered directly. Suddenly, the thick earth spiritual power on the invisible sword poured out and fell on it.
On the body of a Taoist.
His body seemed to have been hit by a mountain rock. The huge force caused the Taoist to be seriously injured instantly. He could only throw out a life-saving talisman, and suddenly he disappeared with a bang.
"It's not bad, you can actually escape." Wang Rui didn't expect that the opponent had a trump card, and felt that he had underestimated him.
Without that Taoist, his magic weapon hammer, those monsters were quickly killed by Wang Rui. He erased the brand and traces of the opponent's hammer, and then gave it to He Na. Although she learned swordsmanship, the hammer is a magic weapon.
, is of no use to Wang Rui, but is a treasure to He Na.
The two quickly left the palace. Wang Rui wrapped He Na tightly in the robe of the virtual phase. He used his color change and aura to hide himself from the glances of the king-level powerhouses in the palace. At the same time, he used his powerful consciousness to discover the magic circle.
the location of.
"He Na, stay here and wait for me. I'll go and come back." Wang Rui unfolded an earth spirit barrier, which was enough to withstand the attack of a king-level powerhouse for a while.
As for himself, he sneaked towards the main hall where the emperor was. He had to disqualify Augus from inheriting the throne, otherwise he would not be able to leave safely.
The Taoist didn't dare to stay in the palace any longer. He used secret methods to escape from the palace and swore that he would never come near this place again. Wang Rui was frightened and he didn't dare to mention revenge.
At this moment, in the Hall of Stars, the atmosphere of the banquet gradually reached its climax. The emperor and the empress were toasting the guests one by one. At this time, Wang Rui had a tube of potion in his hand that was studied by the chamberlain Xiao Hei, and there was a sense of expectation in his heart.
