Chapter 521 Confrontation in the Imperial Palace
"I'll do it now!" Princess Linglong's lips moved slightly, and a message came out of her mouth. It was unknown how many of her subordinates were passed on. Xiao Ming held the medical notice and went to the location of the palace with Princess Linglong. As they moved, the people around them also moved. The crowd surged, one person told ten, ten told a hundred, a hundred told ten thousand! As time passed, more and more people gathered around Xiao Ming and Linglong, and the crowd became more and more dense. When they arrived at the foot of the palace, the people following Xiao Ming and Linglong were so dense that they could not see the end. Even if there were not millions, there were hundreds of thousands! The crowd was like the sea, surging like a tide! Countless people followed closely with enthusiastic eyes, and in the crowd, Xiao Ming also saw many familiar figures. That was Linglong's maid in the mansion. Obviously, all of Linglong's subordinates were mobilized and kept adding fuel to the fire in secret, so the formation was so magnificent. The crowd had already alarmed the palace and Prince Wencheng who lived in the East Palace.
Prince Wencheng's face was livid, and he hurried over with a group of trusted soldiers, blocking the huge crowd at the entrance of the palace.
He glanced and instantly locked onto Linglong, who was in the lead.
"Linglong! What do you want to do? Do you want to force the palace?!" Prince Wencheng was extremely angry, but at the same time, a trace of panic that was difficult to suppress flashed in his eyes.
Although he had known that Linglong's methods were superb, Prince Wencheng had never thought that Linglong could actually incite so many people to threaten the palace!
Such a scene in front of him was greatly beyond Wencheng's expectations.
Although for members of the royal family and practitioners, the lives of the people are not valuable, and even as cheap as ants, insignificant.
However, the number of people in front of him was too large, and it was under the watchful eyes of the public, so Prince Wencheng did not dare to have any unusual behavior.
If he directly suppressed them with iron blood, the adverse effects would be too great!
In broad daylight, the people in the city were slaughtered wantonly as cultivators. This kind of evil behavior was unacceptable to the government and the people of the Purple Moon Empire, and even the entire cultivation world would be furious.
Firstly, the wanton slaughter of civilians was the work of the evil ways, which has always been hated by the mainstream righteous ways. After all, such behavior violates human nature and hurts the harmony of nature.
Secondly, ordinary people are also extremely important resources for cultivators and even the entire cultivation world.
Mining, road construction, palace construction, wealth creation, and even providing beautiful men and women and subsequent reserve forces, etc., the role of ordinary people is still very large!
The arrogance and affluent life of cultivators are all based on the exploitation of ordinary people. It doesn't matter if some people are killed normally, but if it is a large-scale massacre, it will seriously affect the normal life of cultivators.
If all the ordinary mortals on the continent are killed, leaving only a group of cultivators, it is actually meaningless.
Retract your thoughts.
Seeing countless people in front of him all coming to the foot of the palace, Prince Wencheng was shocked and angry, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.
"Brother Wencheng, I, Linglong, dare not lead the people to force the emperor to abdicate. Don't put such a big hat on my head!" Princess Linglong sneered, then pointed at Xiao Ming and said, "This is my friend, named Xiao Ming." "He took off your medical notice and wanted to enter the palace to treat my father! Brother Wencheng, you will not stop Mr. Xiao from entering the palace, regardless of my father's life or death, right?" "Medical notice?" Prince Wencheng only then noticed Xiao Ming and the notice in Xiao Ming's hand. He was stunned and did not react for a while. He naturally knew more about the medical notice than anyone else. After all, he personally asked people to post it all over the city. However, the so-called notice was just a means to show his noble character as the crown prince who was worried about his father. From the bottom of his heart, Prince Wencheng never expected that any alchemist could save his father. Besides, the notice had been posted for more than a year, and he had forgotten about it long ago! But now, Princess Linglong actually used this matter to threaten the imperial city, which put Wencheng in a dilemma.
Just as he hesitated, the crowd moved, and Li Tianhan and Dan Chengzi came over with a large number of subordinates.
"I heard that someone unveiled a notice to enter the imperial city to treat the old emperor?" Li Tianhan grinned, then his eyes fell on Xiao Ming, looking him up and down and said,
"It was you who made the noise? Do you have the ability?!"
Xiao Ming turned his head slightly and saw that the person who spoke was a young man wearing a dragon robe. After seeing the young man's face, Xiao Ming felt a sense of familiarity in a trance.
He remembered.
The young man in front of him was very similar to Li Xuanfeng, who was killed by him before. Although they were not exactly the same, the overall facial features were simply carved out of the same mold.
"This person is Li Tianhan, he is the prince of Fengling Empire." Linglong explained to Xiao Ming in a low voice.
The prince of Fengling Empire...
Xiao Ming nodded.
No wonder this man looks similar to Li Xuanfeng, they are both princes of Fengling Empire. Moreover, judging from Li Tianhan's reaction, he seems to have not yet recognized that Xiao Ming is the murderer who killed Li Xuanfeng.
But if you think about it carefully, this is normal.
At the beginning, Xiao Ming killed Li Xuanfeng in a deserted place. This was done very secretly. Apart from Elder Lian, there were no other witnesses at the scene.
Presumably, no matter how powerful the Fengling Empire was, it would not be able to find Xiao Ming.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ming no longer had any burden. He raised the medical notice in his hand and said loudly, "Xiao is an alchemist specially invited by His Highness Linglong to treat the emperor of your Ziyue Empire."
"Now that I have revealed the notice, why don't you let me enter the imperial city?"
"If you don't let me enter the palace, then I, Xiao, will have to go back home. At that time, the emperor's condition will have nothing to do with me. You will bear the consequences yourself!"
Hearing Xiao Ming's slightly threatening words, Prince Wencheng's face became even uglier.
In a hurry, he actually cast a look of help to Li Tianhan.
Li Tianhan narrowed his eyes at Xiao Ming and sneered, "Your last name is Xiao, right? You have already cultivated to the early stage of tribulation, and there is a tendency to advance to the middle stage."
"If we only look at the martial arts realm, this strength is really not weak!"
"However, alchemy has nothing to do with martial arts practice. Even if you have made great achievements in martial arts practice, you don't have much ability to save the old emperor, right?"
"Unless you are a master of both alchemy and martial arts!"
"Master of both alchemy and martial arts?" At this time, Dan Chengzi next to Li Tianhan suddenly spoke, "Such a great talent is only circulated among the people's recitation, which is extremely rare."
"At least I have lived for so many years, and I have never seen a dual-system practitioner who has made great achievements in both alchemy and martial arts."
Then, he cleared his throat and sneered at Prince Wencheng, "Your Highness Wencheng, in my opinion, let this boy enter the palace to make alchemy."
"If he can't save the old emperor, then he will use his life to apologize to the old emperor! What do you think, Your Highness Wencheng?"
