Kou Zhengqing had nothing to say. He turned around and ran towards the back, trying to escape. A figure not far from him stopped in front of him and punched him in the head.
The left side of Kou Zhengqing's head was slightly dented and tilted to one side. Before he died, he stared at the person who killed him. He really didn't expect that he would die in the hands of this person.
Lin Chen was not surprised when he saw that Kou Zhengqing was about to run away. He had already expected that Kou Zhengqing would run away, but there was absolutely no way that Kou Zhengqing could escape in front of him and Xia Houzun.
It can be seen that when Kou Zhengqing was killed, his expression changed.
"Why did you kill him?" Lin Chen was a little annoyed and shouted to Pang Wei who was standing next to Kou Zhengqing's body.
Pang Wei looked indifferent and said matter-of-factly: "He dared to poison the Lord and tried to escape. Shouldn't he be killed?"
Xiang Tianxing looked at Lin Chen in confusion: "Brother Long, do you suspect that there is another mastermind behind this matter?"
"That's right. I really can't figure out why he poisoned the king. The only explanation is that he was bribed by others."
Lin Chen stared at Pang Wei coldly: "I was about to ask who the mastermind behind him was, so just kill him!"
Pang Wei's face darkened: "What do you mean by this? Do you suspect that I am the mastermind behind him and are eager to kill people and silence him?"
"I don't suspect that you are the mastermind behind him, but I do suspect that you have something to do with this matter. Otherwise, you would be in such a hurry
Why kill him?" Lin Chen said simply.
"You fart! I was angry that he, as the Royal Alchemist of the Lord of the Kingdom, actually poisoned the Lord of the Kingdom, and when I saw him trying to escape, I killed him without thinking too much in my anger. I admit, I
It's indeed a bit reckless, and you should really ask if there is a mastermind behind it. But you slander me like this, do you believe that I am rude to you?" Pang Wei seemed to be greatly insulted.
Lin Chen responded tit for tat: "What a rude method, why don't you try it?"
"That's enough! This matter ends here. Pang Wei has been following me for more than 20,000 years. I believe that he can't do anything against me. Take Kou Zhengqing's body away and the rest of you.
Tianxing and Longya, you two stay here."
Xia Houzun frowned a little when he saw that Pang Wei had killed Kou Zhengqing, but after hearing his explanation, he believed it and did not think that Pang Wei might be related to this matter.
Pang Wei gave Lin Chen a cold look and turned to leave. The others whispered as they left. In their words, they did not believe that Pang Wei might be related to this matter.
After everyone else left, only Lin Chen, Xia Houzun and Xiang Tianxing were left in the courtyard.
Xia Houzun looked at Lin Chen and said, "You suspect that there is a mastermind behind Kou Zhengqing. Do you already have someone to suspect in your mind? Are you suspicious of King Yun?"
Lin Chen didn't hide anything and said: "That's right. Moreover, although I suspected that he was the mastermind behind Ji Yunting, I didn't understand why he wanted to kill Tianxing. After all, with Tianxing's strength, he was not a threat at all.
He, but if the mastermind behind Kou Zhengqing is also King Yun, then everything can be explained.
If you die, the position of the leader of the Great Li Dynasty will naturally fall on his head. But if you still have a son in this world, although you cannot threaten him, if the world knows about it, after all,
It will cause him some trouble. If so, then——"
Xiang Tianxing's face turned cold when he heard this. Could it be possible that the mastermind who destroyed his Xiang family was really King Yun? If this is the case, he must avenge himself!
"Okay, you don't need to say anything. In any case, I believe that it is absolutely impossible for King Yun to do such a thing. I am his brother, how could he want to kill me?"
Xia Houzun interrupted Lin Chen's words and his eyes flickered. It was obvious that he said verbally that King Yun would not want to kill him, but he may not be so firm in his heart.
Lin Chen had already said what he needed to say, so he changed the subject and said, "I can cure your body. If you don't carry out treatment, even if you say you won't continue to take the 'Thousand Sun Eclipse Heart Grass', your body will
It will not continue to deteriorate, but it will be very difficult to recover.”
"Can you heal my body?" Xia Houzun looked surprised. After what happened just now, he no longer dared to underestimate Lin Chen.
"Brother Long, can you really cure my father? Then please save him!"
Xiang Tianxing was also pleasantly surprised. In excitement, he directly called Xia Houzun his father this time. It seemed that after the previous conversation between father and son, he had already somewhat accepted Xia Houzun.
Xia Houzun was extremely happy when he noticed what he called him.
"Of course it's true, can I still lie to you?"
Lin Chen smiled at Xiang Tianxing: "There is a second-grade Taoist holy elixir called 'Qiqiao Linglong Dan', which can just remove the 'Thousand Sun Eclipse Heart Grass' toxins in the human body. As long as you gather this kind of elixir for me,
From the elixir-making materials, I can now refine the 'Qiqiao Exquisite Pill'. After your father recovers, it's time for me to leave."
Xiang Tianxing was naturally very happy when he heard that Lin Chen could cure his father, but inevitably felt a little sad when he heard that Lin Chen would be leaving.
'No wonder Tianxing respects him so much. It seems that when he promised Tianxing to stay here for a few more days, he was probably afraid that someone would do harm to Tianxing. And when I recover, as long as I am here, no matter who it is,
Maybe if Tianxing can be moved, he can leave peacefully.'
Xia Houzun secretly thought in his heart, this Long Ya values love and righteousness, and he is indeed worthy of Tianxing's love as a brother.
…
Prince Yun's Mansion.
Xia Houyun sat on a chair with a gloomy expression, and a middle-aged man stood in front of him with a respectful expression. This middle-aged man was Pang Wei, the commander of the imperial army.
"I didn't expect that all my plans would be ruined by such a guy who appeared out of thin air. This guy is simply a disaster!"
Xia Houyun's eyes flashed with cold light, but that person turned out to be a second-level Taoist realm holy alchemist, which further proves that he
It must be from the outer world.
"Sir, what should we do next?" Pang Wei asked.
Xia Houyun said calmly: "It has reached this point. Maybe my brother also doubts me. In this case, instead of sitting back and waiting for death, it is better to take action!"
Pang Wei's face looked a little uneasy: "Although Xiahou Zun has a large amount of the 'Thousand-Sun Eclipse Heart Grass' toxin in his body, which has caused his strength to drop significantly, but with only one person, I'm afraid..."
Pang Wei couldn't get involved in a battle at the Hedao level.
To deal with Xiahou Zun, Xiahou Yun can only rely on himself.
And even if Xia Houzun suffers from physical problems, Xia Houzun alone is still no match for Xia Houzun.
"Don't worry, since I want to take action, I am absolutely sure." Xiahou Yun said calmly, as if he had Zhizhu in hand: "I have found a helper."
"I wonder who your lord has found to help?" Pang Wei was very curious as to what kind of helper Xia Houyun found to make him so confident.
Xia Houyun said: "Netherworld Swordsman Liu Changsheng!"
Pang Wei was stunned, and then showed a look of joy. No wonder Xia Houyun couldn't help but want to take action. He didn't expect that he could ask Liu Changsheng to help. If Liu Changsheng took action, then this matter would be a sure thing.
"Haha! I'm here to congratulate you in advance on becoming the Lord of the Great Li Kingdom! I don't know, when will we take action? In my opinion,
Since we have Liu Changsheng’s help, it’s better to do this sooner rather than later.”
