There was a pavilion outside a hidden mansion. The pavilion was surrounded by a unique scenery. At this moment, there were two figures sitting inside the pavilion, playing chess.
Just as the two of them were concentrating on playing chess, a man with eagle-eyes suddenly appeared. The man kneeled on one knee and raised his head respectfully to look at his master, His Highness, the second prince of the Dragon Mountain Empire.
"Master, Qiong Qi died." Hawkeye's voice was a bit hoarse. He was sweating because for some reason his right arm had been cut off!
Although the blood flow around his severed arm had barely stopped, there was still intense pain.
Just as the eagle-eyed man finished speaking, one of the two figures playing chess, a young man with long hair, appeared to be deaf to his words. He held a black piece and landed on the board before getting up, then he slightly raised his head and looked at the person in front of him.
The old man looked at the chess board in front of him and knew that he had indeed been killed to the point that he had lost the game, and he had even lost miserably. He immediately shook his head with a smile, stroked his beard, and said, "After a few days, His Highness' chess skills are really getting better and better, this old man has been taught a lesson."
"No, no. If it weren't for Old Man Duan's continuous days of guidance, this prince's chess skills wouldn't have grown so fast …" The second prince, Long Kun, was known as the King of Wei. He had great prestige in the imperial court and was supported by many court officials. This period of time was one of them.
Then, when the game of chess ended, the Second Prince's eyes fell on the eagle-eyed man, who was standing not far from him. He had also heard the words spoken earlier. He frowned. Qiong Qi was killed?!
"Who killed him? Is it the Azure Province's County Governor, Zhao Yang? " His eyes were somewhat cold.
"No." The eagle-eyed man shook his head: "Four of them are under the age of eighteen."
Four youths?
No matter what, that Qiong Qi was still the bandit leader, and his cultivation had reached the peak of the sixth level of the Divine Rotation Stage. In the entire Azure Province, there were very few opponents.
"Of the four people, two of them are at the Saint Bars level. One is at the Fifth Stage and the other is at the Sixth Stage, both of them can challenge someone higher than them. However, that Fifth Heavenly Layer kid is even more terrifying and extraordinary, his right arm was cut off by him. In addition, the girl at the Sixth Stage has already been identified. This person is Zhao Yang's only daughter, named Zhao Qingxiu …"
The eagle-eyed man continued: "Although it is the work of these four youngsters but it is clear that there is a message from Zhao Yang behind their backs. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to accurately locate the location of the Black Cloud Stronghold at White Tiger Mountain..."
"There is such a thing..." After thinking for a moment, the Second Prince turned around and looked at Elder Duan. "Elder Duan, what do you think about this matter?"
Old man Duan said calmly, "Second Prince, that Qiong Qi is just a small peak of the sixth level of the Divine Revolving Core realm martial artist. Although he can be considered to be of some help, but at that time, it can be said that his influence will be negligible, and it will be even more of no use to His Highness's plan. Therefore, I don't think that losing a Qiong Qi will be a big problem for this old man, but that Zhao Yang, after he knows that Qiong Qi is your subordinate, he actually attacked and exterminated."
"How preposterous." Hearing this, the Second Prince furiously flung his sleeves, clearly a bit angry. But very quickly, his expression returned to its original calm, and his eyes bloomed with a cold light as he said, "Is there any news from the imperial guards? My royal sister's whereabouts …"
The eagle-eyed man looked at Elder Duan, who was standing beside the Second Prince. He wanted to say something, but the Second Prince waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "Elder Duan is one of us, there's no need to hide …"
The eagle-eyed man then said, "Good news, the leader of the imperial guards has reported. Not long ago, they had already found the location of Princess Chi Yao at the Jizhou County's border, and they are now chasing after her. I believe that soon, Princess Chi Yao will be in their master's hands …"
Hearing this, the second prince looked at the distant horizon. Immediately, the corner of his mouth curled up into a cold smile.
Royal sister, you can't blame your royal brother for this. The only blame is that you know that there are simply too many of them …
