Chapter 167 The Trial of the Third Prince

Late at night, Duan Lingtian called Xiong Quan over and handed him a lot of banknotes.

"Take these 50 million taels of silver and continue to buy the materials I asked you to buy last time."

Duan Lingtian ordered.

Fifty million taels of silver notes?

Xiong Quan was stunned. Where did the young master come from so much money?

However, he was a smart man and did not ask any more questions. He put away the banknote respectfully and said, "Yes, Master."

Duan Lingtian returned to the room, used the last material Xiong Quan bought last time, and engraved a new 'bone erosion pattern' on the Ziwei Soft Sword.

Today, he has finally seen the power of the ‘Bone-Erosion Marking Pattern’!

Even the old man next to the third prince, who was at the eighth level of the Nascent Soul Realm, didn't even have time to react before he was hit...

All the bones in his body were reduced to ashes, and he was so dead that he could no longer die!

For Duan Lingtian, the bone erosion pattern is a 'life-saving talisman'.

It is conceivable that if it were not for the 'bone erosion pattern' tonight, he would have been killed by the old man next to the third prince.

"Third Prince, I, Duan Lingtian, have remembered what you gave me today."

Duan Lingtian's eyes flashed with a cold light.

After regaining his breath, Duan Lingtian practiced the "Nine Dragons War Master Technique" and "Crazy Python Transformation" until late at night, and then fell asleep.

The next morning, Duan Lingtian went to class in the 'Xianxing Xingxing' classroom as usual.

During this period, someone came to see Sima Changfeng.

After Sima Changfeng went out for a while, he came back. He looked at Duan Lingtian with a strange look in his eyes, "Duan Lingtian, come out with me."

Although Duan Lingtian felt strange, he still followed Sima Changfeng out.

"Teacher, did you ask me to come out?"

Duan Lingtian asked in confusion.

"Someone wants to see you."

Sima Changfeng said.

Just when Duan Lingtian was wondering who wanted to see him, Sima Changfeng had already brought him to an open space in a corner of Shengwu Academy, where a luxurious carriage was parked.

On both sides of the carriage, stood two old men.

Relying on the experience of the Samsara Martial Emperor and his strong mental power, Duan Lingtian could judge that the strength of these two old men was not weaker than that of the old man he killed with the 'bone-eroding mark' last night.

"Go ahead."

Sima Changfeng nodded to Duan Lingtian, "I'll wait for you here."

Duan Lingtian walked over curiously, and after getting on the carriage, he was stunned.

The person sitting in the carriage was none other than the 'Third Prince' whom he had just met yesterday.

However, one night passed, and the third prince's face was no longer full of smiles like yesterday, but looked gloomy.

"Third Prince, are you looking for me?"

Duan Lingtian sat down in the carriage without any courtesy and raised his eyebrows.

"Duan Lingtian, we plain people don't tell secrets... Uncle Hu never came back after he left last night. Was he killed by your people?"

The third prince looked at Duan Lingtian, his eyes were like lightning, staring at Duan Lingtian, taking in all the changes on Duan Lingtian's face, for fear of missing even the slightest bit.

When Duan Lingtian heard this, he looked 'surprised' and 'confused', "Third Prince, who is Uncle Hu?"

"Um?"

The third prince frowned. He had been observing the changes in Duan Lingtian's expression just now, but he found that there was nothing wrong with Duan Lingtian's expression when he mentioned the matter about Uncle Huber.

Does it really have nothing to do with this Duan Lingtian?

Impossible!

Yesterday, he sent Uncle Hu to kill Duan Lingtian.

However, after Huber left, he never came back, as if he had disappeared from the world...

If only Huber was missing, he would have lost an eighth-level Nascent Soul Realm warrior, and he would be heartbroken for a while at most.

But Huber had another identity, that of being the steward of his house, in charge of his private wealth.

What he is eager to find back now is the Najie in Huber's hand!

Without that ring, it means that the 70 to 80 million taels of silver have been wasted, and his life will be sad in the future...

Although he is a prince, he usually pays for all the expenses of his residence by himself.

Moreover, if he wants to get more people to support him in ascending to the throne in the future, he will also need to use that money to build relationships...

"Third Prince, why do you look so ugly? What happened?"

Duan Lingtian looked 'surprised' and asked curiously.

"Duan Lingtian, just kill Uncle Hub... I don't care! But you must hand over Uncle Hub's 'Na Ring'... Otherwise, you should know the consequences!"

The third prince's face was gloomy, and after speaking, he threatened.

He still wanted to take a gamble and test whether the 'Na Ring' was in Duan Lingtian's hands.

"Third Prince, what do you mean? If someone dies in your house, do you blame me?"

Duan Lingtian's face darkened and he became furious, "As for the Najie you are talking about, I know nothing about it... Farewell!"

After saying that, Duan Lingtian got off the carriage and left directly without looking back.

The third prince's expression was extremely ugly.

It's really not him?

Who is that...

Huber was his confidant, and he was convinced that Huber would never have gone missing if something had not happened to him.

"Once I find out who did it, no matter who it is, I will let him die without a burial place!"

The third prince, who usually seemed approachable in front of others, now looked ferocious, as if he had turned into a devil...

Soon, the third prince's luxurious carriage left under the eyes of Duan Lingtian and Sima Changfeng.

"Duan Lingtian, what does the third prince want from you?"

Sima Changfeng asked curiously.

"I don't know either... He just told me that Uncle Huber in his family was dead, and he still had any precepts... it was inexplicable."

Duan Lingtian shrugged, looking innocent.

He was not surprised that the third prince came to his door. He just didn't expect that the third prince would react so quickly and so strongly.

It seems that the money is a large sum of money to the third prince, and is even of extraordinary significance.

"Hu Bo? Najie?"

Sima Changfeng was stunned and then speculated: "As far as I know, the housekeeper in the third prince's house is called 'Hu San'... Could it be that Hu San is dead? That Hu San is the third prince's most trusted person, and even more so

He controls the wealth of the third prince’s residence.”

"Could it be that Hu San died and Na Jie, who held the wealth of the third prince's mansion in Hu San's hands, also disappeared?"

Duan Lingtian's eyes widened and he pretended to be surprised.

"Probably. It's good that you know about this matter, and don't spread it outside... Otherwise, it will cause unnecessary trouble. That third prince is not a fuel-efficient lamp."

Sima Changfeng warned with a solemn expression.

"I understand, teacher."

Duan Lingtian nodded quickly, a light flashing in his eyes.

The third prince is naturally not a fuel-efficient lamp. He had already seen this at the dinner party yesterday.

In fact, the moment he saw the third prince today, he guessed the third prince's intention.

When the third prince suddenly said that Hu San's death was related to him, he saw the burning look in his eyes...

He naturally guessed the third prince's purpose.

No doubt they wanted to test him to see if he was really related to Hu San's disappearance...

It's a pity that the third prince's efforts to expose his flaws were undoubtedly in vain.

As the king of soldiers in his previous life, how could he be fooled by this trivial thing?

Duan Lingtian couldn't help but feel funny when he thought of the third prince's last words.

The third prince still wanted him to vomit out what he had eaten?

Is it possible?

Duan Lingtian and Sima Changfeng returned to the classroom and continued class.

At noon, after class, Xiao Yu and Xiao Xun came over, "Duan Lingtian, what did Teacher Sima just ask you to go out for?"

Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled, "Nothing, I just told me that there may be war at any time on the northwest border...asked me if I would be interested if Shengwu Academy's Xiangxingxing wanted to send someone there."

Duan Lingtian told what Sima Changfeng said to him more than ten days ago.

Right is an excuse.

Xiao Yu and Xiao Xun believed it, and Xiao Xun sighed: "Logically speaking, if the Holy Martial Academy really needs to send someone there, generally only students in the third grade and above will have the opportunity to go... Teacher Sima asks you like this, no doubt

I plan to recommend you to go when the time comes."

"Maybe."

Duan Lingtian nodded.

"Duan Lingtian, what did you get from going to the third prince's residence for a banquet yesterday? The third prince probably tried hard to win over you, right?"

Xiao Yu remembered what happened yesterday and asked with a smile.

Vigorous wooing?

Duan Lingtian's face looked a little unnatural...

The third prince wanted to let him die, but he still wanted to win over him?

However, he naturally would not say it out loud, and said with a slight smile: "The biggest gain yesterday was probably meeting the 'most beautiful woman in the Imperial City'."

The most beautiful woman in the imperial city?

Xiao Yu and Xiao Xun's eyes lit up, "Have you met 'Princess Baguio'?"

Duan Lingtian nodded.

"If I had known, I would have gone with you to join in the fun yesterday."

Xiao Yu looked regretful.

"Do you really want to join in the fun? It seems that next time I see Xiaoqian, I will tell her exactly what I said."

An evil smile appeared on the corner of Duan Lingtian's mouth.

The 'Xiao Qian' in his mouth is Luo Cheng's sister 'Luo Qian'.

Xiao Yu gave Duan Lingtian a roll of his eyes and asked curiously: "How is it? Is 'Princess Baguio' beautiful?"

Duan Lingtian nodded, "The reputation is well-deserved... In terms of beauty, she is no less than your sister."

Xiao Yu moved slightly.

He knew the beauty of his sister 'Xiao Lan', she was absolutely gorgeous.

"What? Xiao Yu, your sister is actually a beauty comparable to Princess Baguio?"

Xiao Xun's eyes shone brightly, as if he had turned into a hungry wolf.

"Xiao Xun, don't think about attacking my sister. My sister has someone in her heart."

Xiao Yu shook his head and smiled.

"This is not a problem. I will definitely prove to her that I am ten times, a hundred times better than the person in her heart!"

In Xiao Xun's opinion, the person Xiao Yu's sister likes should also be from Aurora City.

In terms of talent, strength, and family background, even the other party can't catch up with him.

As a direct descendant of the Xiao family in the Imperial City, Xiao Xun still has great confidence in this aspect...

"Are you sure you are ten times, a hundred times stronger than that person?"

Xiao Yu's eyes became a little strange.

"Why, besides Duan Lingtian and you, are there other 'perverts' in your Aurora City?"

Xiao Xun's heart skipped a beat and he asked curiously.

Xiao Yu shook his head.

"Then what do you mean..."

Before Xiao Xun finished speaking, he noticed that Xiao Yu glanced at Duan Lingtian intentionally or unintentionally.
