Chapter three hundred and ninety-eight unexpected turning point
The story of Xue Xiping dates back one hundred and twenty years ago... That was when the Iron Curtain Battle Court was at its peak. Several generations of accumulation had made the Iron Curtain Battle Court a rich and powerful battle court, becoming the most powerful battle court under the Lixue Royal Court. Even
There are more than one or two peak experts in charge. After several generations of accumulation of peak experts with a lifespan of more than 200 years, at their peak, there were at least four in charge of the battle court at any time, and there were even nine who could follow orders when needed.
people!
After taking over as the leader of the Iron Curtain Court, Xue Xiping worked hard to manage the Iron Curtain Court, not to mention taking the Iron Curtain Court to a higher level but also maintaining its prosperity. So he felt relieved when his heir Xue Chi grew up.
Hand over the power and do what you want to do...
His talent at that time was not actually that outstanding, but because of the strength of the Iron Curtain, he could spend more time than other geniuses polishing himself and gradually reach the peak. He spent a total of fifty
Years of time allowed him to master all the skills that a super warrior can master, and he was powerful in all aspects. At that time, he was a blockbuster and suddenly became the strongest person above the peak. Then he left with peace of mind and went to a place that seemed to only have the peak.
Only the strong can go to the secret place to find opportunities to break through to the top.
Obviously he failed. Fifty years after leaving the war court, like many predecessors, he returned to his hometown with nothing... However, something unexpected happened. He never expected that he was still an iron warrior in his heyday before leaving.
The battle court was so dilapidated! The cracks in the shell of the battle court that led to the innermost energy core and almost broke it were like the sharpest ridicule to him, making it hard for him to believe and accept.
Then he realized that all of this happened because the heir he originally chose made the wrong decision at the wrong time.
"Father, what did he do wrong?" Xue Yanling pondered for a while and asked: "I think it's not something like the royal court betraying us. I feel that King Xueshang really has some good intentions towards us.
of."
"That guy Xueshang, he was your father's best friend when I left!" Xuexiping pointedly said something surprising.
But Rong Xiang was suddenly enlightened when he heard this. In fact, when he met the King of Blood Shang alone, he was wondering that the King of Lixue Royal Court seemed to be a little too talkative. It seemed that he was not at all like the Royal Court they had always thought.
Targeting them... This can be seen from the fact that Xueyan Ling was directly awarded the title of prince without any hindrance, while Rong Xiang was actually given the title of 'Grand Duke'. What does it look like to have three princes in one family?
Only with the honor can we do it?
"But this is the original sin!" Xuexiping sighed: "At that time, King Xueshang had not been designated as the heir to the royal court. He was competing with his brothers for this position but was at an absolute disadvantage...and
The opportunity for a comeback is to compete with the achievements of the forces under their control in that thousand-year war."
"Originally, a force of the size of the Iron Curtain Battle Court would not be in much danger during the Millennium War, but your father overestimates his capabilities and wants to help his friend ascend to the throne with his own strength..." Xue
Xiping sighed: "That stupid thing has even forgotten the ancestral precept that you must not intervene in the royal family to seize the heir. He only thinks that with the power of the war court, he can definitely do it... He doesn't want to think about it. If we fight against the Iron Curtain,
If the court can really influence the transfer of the supreme power of the royal court, what will others think?"
"Public enemy?" Xue Luo asked with some difficulty. She swallowed a little and said, "Doesn't that mean we will become a common enemy in everyone's eyes?"
"Yes, they are public enemies. It's just that your father was accustomed to the power of the Iron Curtain Battle Chamber at that time and didn't even think about it, or even thought about it, he didn't take it to heart. As a result, he went his own way and fully demonstrated the strength of the Battle Chamber in that war.
He is powerful and has naturally received the most meritorious service." Xuexiping curled his lips and then continued: "Then he suffered the hostility of all other war families, and the late king almost let the Iron Curtain War go by just a little bit.
The court will never recover."
"That mission of holding back the enemy?" What did Xueyan Ling think of... She has also experienced the human sea tactics of the Spirit Hunter Legion, so she naturally knows how terrifying it is to have a massive swarm of starships. In her opinion, being able to do that
Only the Royal Court could survive this kind of offensive, and the other Battle Courts were not qualified to do so.
"Yes, the Iron Curtain Battle Court held off the enemy for two months, almost to the point of running out of ammunition and food... There was no jump technology at that time, so even if you wanted to retreat after the deadline, you had to face the ranks of the Spirit Hunter Legion.
Chase and kill." Xue Xiping said with a sad look and a sarcastic tone.
"So what role did the Royal Court and other war courts play in this?" Xue Luo asked in a sharp tone.
"The originally agreed-upon support arrived half a month late. This was the result of all the other war courts uniting. But the Royal Court knew this, but still let it go until the end before standing up to 'justice'." Xue Xiping turned.
He looked at the three young men and asked: "Do you know what the Iron Curtain Battle Court, the Royal Court and other battle courts got after this incident?"
The three of them all looked thoughtful, but none of them said what they were thinking. They just looked at Xuexiping with their own speculations...
Seeing this, the old man couldn't help but nodded secretly. He found that the three people in front of him were indeed young heroes who could be called the "Three Divine Generals". They all had their own judgments but could not make hasty decisions. This qualification
It's already better than the Blood Edict he originally chose.
"Those people in the other war courts got nothing, and were even punished by the Royal Court and had certain meritorious deeds cut off, but that was basically just for show; while the Royal Court strengthened its own centralization of power.
, and eliminated a huge hidden danger that had always existed within the royal court. Of course, King Xue Shang succeeded in ascending to the throne because of the Iron Curtain Battle Court's merits; as for our Iron Curtain Battle Court... we have received a huge meritorious service and compensation.
But the most fundamental things have been lost! The damaged battle court is always missing some key components or materials and cannot be completely repaired. The merits obtained are used to fill this bottomless pit with little effect. Although it has been exempted several times
A thousand years of war, but there is an unimaginable gap between what you get and what you pay for." By this time, Xuexiping's expression was very calm.
"So after you came back seventy years ago, you led the Iron Curtain Battle Court back to the thousand-year battlefield?" Xueyan Ling asked.
"Yes, fortunately, I finally have some thin-skinned attitude, and the Thousand-Year War at the Iron Curtain Court passed safely." Xuexiping said in a calm tone: "But I didn't expect that after the war, I chose
That son actually led a team to ambush me!"
"What?!" Rong Xiang and the three of them all exclaimed, never expecting that things would turn around here!
