Of course, his defeat was not unjust. The swordsmanship Lin Yu used was the last sword move of Taixuan's killing swordsmanship, the ultimate killing sword.
This sword is the ultimate killing sword, possessing incredible power. If the opponent cannot be killed, the person who uses this sword will suffer severe backlash, ranging from serious injuries to death.
Therefore, Lin Yu also took a lot of risks when using this swordsmanship. Fortunately, this swordsmanship did not disappoint Lin Yu. He directly killed Prince Gong with one sword!
"What!"
"How is this possible!"
This scene also shocked everyone around them, especially the third prince, who couldn't believe his eyes at all.
Prince Gong is a veteran fifth-level master from the Taiyue Dynasty. Even the old king of the Taihe Dynasty may not be his opponent.
Precisely because he knew Prince Gong's strength, although the third prince had hesitated, he finally made up his mind to cooperate with the other party. But at this moment, under his nose, Prince Gong was killed!
"It's over!"
He couldn't help but take dozens of steps back, his face turned extremely pale.
The fall of Prince Gong means that his biggest trump card has disappeared. Next, you can imagine his results!
"Run, run away!"
Near Lin Yu, the head of the Teng family and others were so frightened that they immediately turned around and ran away like crazy.
Even Prince Gong was killed by Lin Yu, and their strength was not worth mentioning. The only option now was to flee immediately, and maybe there would be a glimmer of hope!
"Now that you're here, don't leave!"
However, Lin Yu was by no means a soft-hearted person. Since these people were die-hard loyalists to the third prince, and they had just attacked him, how could he let them go?
Phew! Phew! Phew!
The fierce sword light erupted and fell on those people in an instant. Along with a few unwilling screams, the head of the Teng family and others were cut into two pieces on the spot!
Speaking of which, they could be regarded as the top big shots in the Taihe Dynasty, but now they were killed by Lin Yu as easily as killing a chicken. This scene also made the other strong men in the third prince's camp completely frightened.
"I am willing to surrender and ask the Ninth Prince to spare my life!"
"I give up, I give up!"
Loud shouts continued to sound, and in the blink of an eye, more than 80% of the powerful men in the Third Prince's camp gave up their resistance and knelt down one by one, showing signs of fear and fear.
"The overall situation has been decided. Everyone, prepare to meet the new king."
There was a strange look in the eldest princess's eyes, and she sighed softly, but her expression was quite calm.
Although she accepted the benefits from Prince Gong and betrayed the second prince, she had no direct conflict with Yi Tianwu.
When the Third Prince and the Ninth Prince were fighting, neither she nor her people took action and just remained neutral. In this case, she was not afraid of Yi Tianwu's liquidation on her.
"Win!"
Seeing that the scene gradually returned to calm, Yi Tianwu's face was full of complex expressions.
Just a moment ago, he was ready to be ruined, but who would have thought that in such a short period of time, the situation had been completely reversed, and he became the final victor!
He knew that all of this was due to Xueyou. Without Xueyou, let alone victory, his life would have been in danger long ago.
"Thank you sir!"
Thinking of this, he sincerely bowed to Lin Yu, then looked at many royal family elders, and said in a deep voice: "Uncles of the emperor, now that the matter is over, can the battle for the king be finally decided?"
"good!"
The royal family elder who had previously summoned the barrier nodded and said: "The Ninth Prince, first won the battle for the king, and now he has reversed the chaos, killed a bunch of rebels, and preserved the foundation of the Taihe Dynasty. With such merits, he should naturally inherit the king's title.
position!"
"I agree too!"
After he spoke, the other royal family members also nodded.
"Meet the King!"
The next moment, King Shi, King Ning, Hou Dingyu and others all bowed towards Yi Tianwu and saluted.
"Meet the King!"
Regardless of whether he meant it sincerely or not, many powerful people who originally belonged to the second prince and third prince's camps also bowed their heads.
At this point, the dispute over the leader of the Taihe Dynasty has been settled, and Yi Tianwu has officially inherited the position of leader!
"My dear friends, no courtesy."
Yi Tianwu also quickly adapted to the change in status. A look of solemnity appeared on his face and he said solemnly: "Now that I have taken over the position of the country's leader, I will announce the first edict."
"The third prince, Yi Tianxing, colluded with foreign enemies, had wild ambitions, besieged the palace, and killed his ancestors. He committed a heinous crime. If he is not killed, the people will not be angry!"
His voice was cold, he strode towards Yi Tianxing, and said coldly: "Today, I will personally kill this thief as a warning!"
boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, Yi Tianwu immediately took action.
His strength was originally stronger than that of the third prince Yi Tianxing, and the other prince had already lost his morale. After only a few rounds, Yi Tianxing was killed by him on the spot, with blood splattering everywhere.
This scene also frightened many people around him. Obviously, Yi Tianwu wanted to use this behavior to show his iron-blooded methods.
After Yi Tianwu came to power, life for some people will probably be difficult!
Sure enough, after he officially ascended the throne, Yi Tianwu launched a large-scale purge. Those close confidants of the third prince, as well as ministers, aristocratic families, and sects who secretly colluded with the Taiyue Dynasty were all ruthlessly suppressed.
In just a few days, many aristocratic families were wiped out, and many big figures who usually dominated the party were taken down, which severely shocked the entire Taihe Dynasty.
In addition, although there was no substantial punishment, the eldest princess was also expelled from the capital and away from the center of power of the Taihe Dynasty, which frightened many people who still had dissent.
Of course, Yi Tianwu did not only kill people and seize power. For example, King Shi, King Ning, Marquis Ding, etc. all received corresponding titles.
At the same time, he did not exclude some upright people under the Second and Third Princes, but reused them. As a large number of vacancies were filled, the atmosphere of the Taihe Dynasty also changed greatly.
As for Lin Yu, he was worshiped as the national preceptor by Yi Tianwu, and his status was equal to that of the king. Meeting the national preceptor was like meeting the king himself!
Obviously, Yi Tianwu is not ungrateful. He knows very well who gave him his status. Lin Yu can give him everything, and naturally he can also deprive him of everything.
Of course, Lin Yu naturally doesn't care about these secular powers. The reason why he still stays in the Taihe Dynasty is because the third test of the external mission has been issued, and this mission is still related to the Taihe Dynasty.
