"How is the reaction of the six major families?" The second prince played with the goose egg-sized crystal, greedily absorbing the surging energy inside, with a vague sneer on his lips.
Kneeling below the main hall was a warrior in black armor. His voice was dry and harsh, with no human emotion audible: "The two major families, Debussy and Anmeilun, have made it clear that they will stand on the side of the royal family and secretly met with His Majesty at noon yesterday.
Re-sign the 'Letter of Allegiance' and pledge allegiance to the leadership of the empire from now on. His Majesty is very satisfied with this and praised His Highness Your Highness many times at the dinner that followed.
The three major families, Rubin Kimir, Gaobo, and Dolon, will participate in life-and-death battles, but they have not shown their attitude toward the royal family. I sent people to try to communicate with them, but they did not receive enough attention."
The second prince snorted: "The Anmeilun family suffered heavy losses due to the Taiwu Mine disaster. It lost an honorable man and several martial kings. The overall strength was greatly reduced. Debussy was among the six major families.
They are ranked last and always keep a low profile. Now that they have seen the determination of the royal family to rectify the six major families, and knowing that they have no capital to compete, it is reasonable for them to surrender again.
The overall strength of the three major families of Rubin Kimil, Gao Bo and Duo Long has not been damaged. They are all strong enough. The younger generation has emerged in large numbers. Among the members under the age of 25, there are king-level experts.
They are not afraid of this life-and-death battle, and naturally they will not rush to express their stance to the royal family. They are more waiting and watching to see how tough the royal family's attitude is and how determined they are in punishing the major families.
"
"What about the Rao family? What I want to know most is their attitude." The person who spoke was a handsome blond man, who looked somewhat similar to the second prince, but unlike the second prince's strong and majestic appearance, he exuded a feminine aura.
Occasionally, when I look up at someone, there will be a hint of cruelty in my eyes.
This is the ninth prince of the Delos royal family, and the younger brother of the second prince from the same mother. In the tide of pursuit of the throne, he is the second prince's unswerving supporter. He is ruthless, shrewd and decisive, and his martial arts talent is second only to
Second Prince, the concept of this life-and-death battle was proposed by Yu and was further developed by the Second Prince.
"So far, there has been no strong reaction. There has been no declaration of participation in a life-and-death struggle, nor a clear refusal. I sent someone to inquire yesterday, and they only said they would try to participate."
"Try to participate as much as possible?" The Ninth Prince laughed sinisterly, swaying the bright red liquor in the cup, and said leisurely: "In so many years, this is the first time I have heard the domineering Rao family say that they have no confidence.
If so, try your best? You don’t dare!”
The sneer at the corner of the second prince's mouth deepened: "Send more informants to keep an eye on the Rao family. If they can accept this life-and-death battle calmly, they are aware of the current situation. If they dare to show any signs of rebellion, they must be killed on the 1st.
Report to me as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, Your Highness! I have deployed three hundred elites in Odin City. They will closely monitor every move of all members of the Rao family and its affiliated industries!"
The second prince and the ninth prince looked at each other and laughed loudly: "We have set up this situation, let's see how the Rao family will deal with it!"
The Ninth Prince raised a glass to congratulate the Second Prince: "If we can use this life-and-death battle to seriously weaken the Rao family, or force them to raise their flags to rebel, and give the royal family an excuse to completely annihilate it, it will be a victory. The second brother will win over my father."
The status in his eyes will jump up, and he will firmly suppress the eldest prince. To seek the throne, military merit alone is not enough, the key lies in strategy! With strong military exploits, you can only fight on the battlefield, and only with courage and strategy can you rule hundreds of millions of subjects.
!”
The second prince laughed heartily: "Haha, good! Well said!"
The Ninth Prince then said to the black-armored warrior who attacked: "Announce the news. In this life-and-death battle, I will fight on behalf of the royal family. The remaining nine people will be selected from the descendants of the emperor's uncle and their descendants. All of them must be third-level martial sects! That's it!
Together with our lineup, there is no suspense to win the championship. This time we must show the courage of the royal family and let all the noble families see clearly that our royal family will always be the most prosperous family in Delos!"
"Don't worry, Your Highness Ninth, my subordinates will publicize it properly."
"Also, sort out the participating lists of the major families as soon as possible. The other twenty-four major families cannot take it lightly. There are still some strong people with good strength in them."
"The younger generations of the Tatu family and the Bruce family have several talented people who are in the realm of third-level martial arts. I will investigate them thoroughly."
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
"Your Highness, Your Highness, Ninth Highness, if there is nothing else to do, I will resign."
"Wait a minute." The second prince asked again: "Have you found out what I asked you to investigate?"
"It has been found out, he is in the Rao family!"
"Huh?" The second prince sat up straight.
"When Niya escaped from the Taiwu collapse area, she took three people away. It has been verified that they were Tang Yan and the others."
"Being captured?"
"My subordinates are investigating."
"Check it out, I want to know if they are still alive."
"Yes!!" The black-armored warrior bowed and exited the hall.
The Ninth Prince was a little strange: "You mean... what is his name? Yes, it's called Tang Yan. From the time you came back to now, you mentioned this name more than three times. What's so special about that little guy? It makes the second brother like this
care."
"I can't say it's special, but it's interesting. If possible, I hope to be recruited into the Imperial Guard."
"If it falls into the hands of that woman Niya, I'm afraid it's going to be very bad."
"Let's not talk about it anymore. This time you represent the royal family in the life-and-death battle. In addition to winning the championship, you also need to find opportunities to eliminate all the contestants from the Rao family and appropriately suppress other families, especially Rubin Kimir.
Gaobo and Duolong, the three major families, teach them some lessons and let them understand the majesty of the royal family."
"Second brother, don't worry. Although the three major families have Martial Kings, they have just broken through. They should not be completely consolidated yet. They may not even be able to control the air travel. It has been a full year since I broke through to Martial Kings.
, Looking at all the contestants, I can suppress them all by myself!" The Ninth Prince sneered, raised his head and drank the strong wine in the glass.
Under the deliberate efforts of the royal family, news of the life-and-death battle spread throughout the empire. All the selected families began to prepare nervously, and forces that had nothing to do with them also began to pay close attention. Because anyone with some brains should have seen it.
There must be a conspiracy behind this life-and-death battle. The younger generation of the royal family is very strong, but other families are mixed. The life-and-death battle is not a game, it is a real life-and-death battle. It is a bloody life-and-death competition. In this cruel competition,
Weakness itself represents death.
Does the royal family intend to weaken the major families by doing this? Or is it simply to restore the majesty of the royal family?!
Aren’t you afraid of causing public outrage?!
More and more people are paying attention to this life-and-death battle, and some people in remote areas leave early to go to the "Desolate Forest" where the game will be held, waiting for this game that is destined to cause a sensation in the Delos Empire.
At the same time, gambling around this competition started in various forms. Because it involved the royal family, huge amounts of money were spent on each type of gambling, and there was almost a sensation that the whole country was gambling.
scene.
But... when rumors of a life-and-death match were spreading, an even more sensational news came from Odin City.
Odin's daughter Nia is getting married soon!
Who is Niya?! The most recognized beauty in the Delos Empire. She is the most beautiful woman in the three southern empires. She has attracted countless young talents to fall in love with her. Her suitors are enough to build an army, and they regard her as the lover of their dreams.
Men are spread all over the empire, and even some young people from the hostile forces are attracted to her. Even the Ninth Prince once made bold promises to include Niya in his palace!
But all this time, Niya has never accepted any man's love and treated any man with indifference, let alone an engagement.
But now...
Marriage?! They couldn't accept this kind of 'good news' without any warning at all!
Suddenly, the whole country was in an uproar, and people were excited. Hundreds of millions of men denounced the Rao family and angrily demanded that the identity of the 'groom' be revealed. Even some young talents from major families and royal families were involved, shouting to follow this '
Despicable men' duel!
They know what kind of man is worthy of Niya! If they are not recognized, they are willing to kill him in a duel!
But the Rao family has always remained silent and did not respond to any criticism from the outside world. The door is locked and they refuse to receive!
For some elders of the family, this wedding seems to have another meaning. Could it be that the Rao family knows that it cannot win and is preparing to unite with a certain family through marriage?! With the status of the Rao family and Niya's
With a stunning appearance, the son-in-law chosen must be the right one. Who could it be? Who could it be?!
Not only the younger generation, but also the older generations began to argue about this 'happy groom', the public enemy of imperial men!
PS: It will break out tomorrow for all major alliance leaders!
