Chapter 249: Snake People Rebellion (1/2)

Chapter 249 Snakeman Rebellion

After the first round of competition, Ya Fei immediately announced the start of the second round of competition, the topic was to refine the third-grade elixir Fengxing Dan.

And in order to maintain the [special treatment] of Xiao Yan and his three friends standing on the high platform mentioned in the previous round of competition, other alchemists have a total of three medicinal materials, that is, there are three chances, while Xiao Yan and his three friends only have two.

But in fact, everyone has only two chances, that is, in order to prove that Xiao Yan and his three friends on the high platform are indeed limited, the alchemists below the stage are given one more chance.

Of course, as for the extra medicinal materials, they will be sponsored by the Mitel family, and Mitel Tengshan has no objection to this and immediately promised.

Although they are known as the three major families of Jiama Holy City together with the Nalan family and the Mu family, Mitel Tengshan knows very well that the Nalan family and the Mu family are families attached to the royal family, and they are not comparable to the Mitel family who debuted halfway.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get close to the big tree of the royal family. Mitel Tengshan will certainly not let it go. As long as it is within the acceptable range, Mitel Tengshan will try his best to meet all the requirements of the royal family.

Moreover, it is just the medicinal materials of Fengxing Pills. Giving a few dozen more is just a drop in the bucket for the Mitel family. They can definitely afford it.

"The second round of the competition officially begins!"

After Ya Fei's announcement, the second round of the Alchemist Conference began in full swing.

At this time, a soldier came to the audience of the Nalan family and knelt on one knee to speak to Nalan Jie in a serious voice.

"Marshal Nalan, Mr. Jia asks you to come over."

"Hmm?" Nalan Jie frowned slightly, then nodded, looking at Nalan Yanran, "Yanran, I'll leave for a while, take good care of Xiao Yan's friends."

"Okay, go ahead, Grandpa."

Nalan Yanran smiled and waved, and then Nalan Jie followed the soldiers out of the audience, and after several twists and turns, he arrived at the audience where Jia Xingtian and Hai Bodong were.

"Mr. Jia, what's the matter with you?"

Nalan Jie respectfully saluted Jia Xingtian and asked, Jia Xingtian slightly side-eyed and said softly.

"Marshal Nalan, I want to see the list of retired disciples of Yunlan Sect under the name of the Nalan family, let your housekeeper bring it."

? ! !

Jia Xingtian's words made Nalan Jie suddenly stunned. Jia Xingtian knew that there was something wrong with his housekeeper, and even sent someone to secretly watch him. Why did Jia Xingtian suddenly make this request?

The thought in his mind just flashed by, and Nalan Jie responded respectfully.

"Yes, I'll send someone to call the housekeeper."

Since Jia Xingtian made such a request even though he knew that there was something wrong with the housekeeper of the Nalan family, he must have his reasons, and he just had to obey.

Then Nalan Jie sent someone to summon the housekeeper. During this period, Nalan Jie and Jia Xingtian watched the game in the venue silently. Hai Bodong seemed to have no sense of existence at all. His small body curled up on the sofa and slept soundly. His cute appearance made people who saw him feel motherly love and hugged him in their arms and gently caressed him.

Of course, the premise is that they didn't know that Hai Bodong was an old man in his sixties or seventies.

Listening to the subtle snoring coming from behind, Jia Xingtian and Nalan Jie couldn't help but look back frequently, and Jia Xingtian's eyes revealed deep speechlessness.

This guy has a toddler body, but how can he behave like a child? Who would believe that this is the Ice Emperor if they told others this?

As time passed slowly, under the announcement of Ya Fei, the second round of the game also came to an end.

Of the 47 remaining alchemists in the first round, 36 were eliminated in the second round, leaving only 11 people, including Xiao Yan and the other two on the stage.

This was to highlight the special rules of Xiao Yan and the other two. When one more set of materials was given to the alchemists in the audience, if the normal two sets of materials were used, half of the remaining eleven people would have to be eliminated.

After a short break, Ya Fei announced the start of the third round. At the same time, the housekeeper who received the order also came to the audience stand where Jia Xingtian was, and saluted respectfully to Nalan Jie.

"Master."

"Yes." Nalan Jie nodded lightly and said softly: "Take out the lists I asked you to collect before and show them to Master Jia."

"Yes."

The housekeeper responded softly, came to Jia Xingtian's side, took out a piece of paper from his arms, and handed it to Jia Xingtian respectfully with his head down.

"Mr. Jia, this is the list of all the retired disciples of Yunlan Sect under the name of Nalan family's assets. Please take a look."

"Thank you for your hard work."

Jia Xingtian reached out and took the list, unfolded it and read it silently from top to bottom, his brows gradually knitted.

Sure enough, just as Nalan Jie said, this housekeeper has problems.

The list seems to list the information of dozens of retired disciples of Yunlan Sect, but there are almost no retired disciples who actually participated in the crimes of Yunlan Sect.

The few names that appeared were those whose crimes had been confirmed by the royal family and the Yunlan Sect also knew that they were exposed. Writing down the names of these people was not only to confuse the audience, but also meant that Yunlan Sect had abandoned these people.

"Soldier." Jia Xingtian said calmly with a sidelong glance, handing the list in his hand to the soldier who came forward, "According to the criminal records of Yunlan Sect in the royal family, match them one by one with the list above. Once the corresponding person is found, send someone to monitor him immediately. If the other party notices something wrong, arrest him immediately."

"Yes!"

The soldier responded sternly, took the list and turned to leave. Jiaxingtian looked at the housekeeper with a little apology in his eyes.

"I'm sorry, old housekeeper, please try harder and check carefully to see if there are any fish that have slipped through the net. If so, report the list to me as soon as possible."

"Yes, Wei servant takes the order."

The housekeeper agreed and breathed a deep sigh of relief. He turned around and was about to leave when a soldier rushed in in a panic.

"Jia Lao! Jia Lao! Urgent report!!!"

"Um?!"

Jia Xingtian's brows suddenly became serious, and Nalan Jie was also surprised. The housekeeper who was about to leave also stopped silently and listened to the soldier's next report with his back turned.

"The soldiers stationed in the Tagore Desert desperately sent information. An unknown strong man suddenly appeared in the Snake Tribe and assisted the Snake Tribe in rebellion! Xiao Ling and Xiao Li, the leaders of the Motie Mercenary Group, have also been controlled! "

"What did you say?!!"

Nalan Jie's heart suddenly tightened. Wasn't the matter of the Snake People settled? ! Why did the rebellion suddenly break out again? ! !

Jia Xingtian's face was extremely dark at this time. After a long time, he slowly spoke and asked in a deep voice.

"Where are Princess Yaoye and General Muchen?"

Hearing Jiaxingtian's deep inquiry, the soldier who felt the tremendous pressure could not help but shed cold sweat on his forehead, but he still reported to Jiaxingtian truthfully.

"Princess Yaoye was kidnapped by the Snake Tribe, and General Mu Chen unfortunately died in battle! The unknown strongman led the Snake Tribe, taking Princess Yaoye as a hostage, and passed through the garrison in each region of the Gama Empire unimpeded, heading towards Saint Gama. Come to the city!"

The soldier's words caused the air pressure in the auditorium to suddenly drop to the ground. Jia Xingtian clenched his fists tightly, his shoulders were shaking slightly, and his eyes were flashing red!

Nalan Jie's head was in chaos at this time, and he didn't react for a long time.

His Royal Highness Yao Ye was kidnapped, General Mu Chen died in battle, and even the unknown strong man led the snake people towards the imperial capital? !

What exactly is going on? ! !

Nalan Jie's thoughts were in a mess now. He didn't understand why the snake people rebelled, nor did he know who the unknown strong man was and why he did such a thing.

But there is one thing that Nalan Jie knows very well.

Now, there is no time for him to think about it carefully!

Nalan Jie immediately turned around, cupped his fists and shouted at Jia Xingtian.

"Jia Lao! I will lead the troops now to rescue His Highness Yao Ye and suppress the snake tribe's rebellion!!!"

However, Jia Xingtian did not respond immediately to Nalan Jie's request. After a long time, he spoke again and asked the soldier.

"At the speed at which the snake people are traveling, how long does it take to reach the Holy City of Jia Ma?" To this, the soldier responded immediately.

"It is estimated that it will be five days before we return to Jia Lao. We will arrive at the Holy City of Jia Ma on the morning of the fourth day!"

"Four days."

Jia Xingtian frowned tightly. After thinking for a long time, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes.

"That's enough." Jia Xingtian looked at Nalan Jie and said solemnly: "Marshal Nalan, we will start preparations tomorrow. At the same time, we will propose to the Yunlan Sect a trial match between Nalan Yanran and Xiao Yan for three years. No later than the third The day is about to begin!”

"this?!!"

Upon hearing Jia Xingtian's order, Nalan Jie's pupils suddenly tightened.

Jia Xingtian wanted to take advantage of the three-year agreement between Nalan Yanran and Xiao Yan to have a showdown with the Yunlan Sect. Nalan Jie knew about this and asked Xiao Yan to participate in the Alchemist Conference to win the [Name] for this purpose.

But now that the unknown strong man has led the snake people to march to the imperial capital, shouldn't they deal with the snake people's affairs first? And Princess Yaoye is still in their hands!

"Jia Lao! I think that now that the Snake Tribe is about to rebel, the Yun Lan Sect affairs should be postponed! And His Highness Yao Ye"

"We can't take care of Ye'er's affairs!" Jiaxingtian interrupted Jiaxingtian with a dark face, "After the Mo family incident, the Yunlan Sect already knew that we planned to break up with them. If we are dealing with the Snake Tribe's rebellion, When the Yunlan Sect cooperates from behind, that is the worst situation!"

"Therefore, we must take advantage of the opportunity to deal with the Yunlan Sect before the Snake Tribe's rebellion arrives!"

Jia Xingtian's words made Nalan Jie freeze on the spot, and it took a long time before he slowly spoke out.

"But His Highness Yaoye."

"Ye'er is the next heir to the royal family. Standing in this position, she definitely has the consciousness of being abandoned." Jia Xingtian clenched his fists tightly, his face looked so painful, but he still gritted his teeth, "If Ye If my son and I are in the same position, she will definitely do the same."

"."

Nalan Jie finally had nothing to say.

Jiaxing Tian turned to look at the soldier and gave a stern order.

"The rebellion of the snake people and the capture of Princess Yaoye must not be spread to outsiders! Violators will be executed!"

"Follow me!!!"

After the soldier responded, Jia Xingtian suddenly looked at the butler who had not left. He narrowed his eyes slightly, his aura pressed against the butler, and his red pupils revealed an undisguised threat.

"Butler, I know that you have served the Nalan family for many years, and you also know what you should know."

Seeing Jiaxingtian's flashing red eyes, the butler's body trembled first, then his face calmed down, and he gently lowered his head to assure Jiaxingtian.

"Please don't worry, Mr. Jia, I didn't hear anything."

".Very good." Jia Xingtian nodded solemnly, then waved his hand lightly, "Everyone, go down."

After receiving the order, the housekeeper and the soldiers were about to leave, but Jia Xingtian suddenly stopped the soldiers.

"Go and call Mu Zhan, the son of the Mu family."

"As commanded."

The soldier responded and left with the steward.

At this time, Mu Zhan was leading the soldiers to carry out the security work of the alchemist conference. From time to time, he cast his eyes on Ya Fei on the host stage. His eyes were full of desire, and he had even begun to have indescribable fantasies in his heart.

Just wait, Yafei, you will be my woman sooner or later!

Just when Mu Zhan saw a soldier coming, he spoke in his doubtful eyes.

"Jia Lao summoned me."

Add old age?

Mu Zhan raised his eyebrows and looked at Jia Lao in the audience.

What is Jia Lao doing with me?

Although he was confused, Mu Zhan nodded and went to the auditorium of Jiaxingtian after giving instructions to the security personnel.

After a while, Mu Zhan came to Jiaxingtian's position and greeted him respectfully with fists in his hands.

"Jia Lao."

Looking at the young man in front of him with respect written all over his face, Jiaxingtian looked hesitant and hesitated for a while before speaking.

"Mu Zhan, starting from today, you will lead the soldiers of the Mu family. They will start preparing tomorrow and are ready to be dispatched at any time."

"this"

Jia Xingtian's words made Mu Zhan suddenly freeze on the spot.

Is this giving him the military power of the Mu family directly? My grandpa hasn’t come back yet!

Soon Mu Zhan came to his senses and quickly lowered his head to refuse.

Although he had always wanted to inherit Mu Chen's mantle and take over Mu Chen's position as general, Mu Zhan had always believed that he would be able to do it sooner or later.

However, it is definitely not now. No matter how confident Mu Zhan is, he still has this self-knowledge.

"Xie Jia always appreciates me, but now the military power of the Mu family is in the hands of my grandfather. I have no right to take over, not to mention that my current ability is not enough."

"He can't come back."

Before Mu Zhan finished speaking, Jia Xingtian interrupted, causing Mu Zhan's heart to tighten suddenly. He raised his head blankly and looked at Jia Xingtian's eyes, which trembled slightly.

"Jia Lao, what do you mean?"

Looking at Mu Zhan's expression, Jiaxing Tian felt guilty in his heart, and after a long while he spoke and answered in a deep voice.

"I just received news that General Mu Lao has died in the Tagor Desert, so from now on, you will take over his military power."

! ! ! ! !

"impossible!!!"

Upon hearing the news, Mu Zhan's face instantly became extremely ferocious, and he even forgot about etiquette and yelled at Jiaxing Tian.

"Jia Lao! This is absolutely impossible! There is something wrong with this news! There is no way my grandfather died in battle!!!"

Seeing Mu Zhan with a ferocious expression in front of him and angry eyes flashing with sorrow, Jia Xingtian slowly closed his eyes and sighed deeply.

"If possible, I hope so." Jia Xingtian opened his eyes, his old red eyes staring closely at Mu Zhan, "But unfortunately, this news has been confirmed several times. General Mu has indeed died in the battle. ”

After hearing Jia Xingtian's affirmative words, Mu Zhan froze on the spot, and his mind was completely white.

His grandfather died in the war?

Just like that, died in battle?

[As a soldier, you should stand upright and dare to do what you do! 】

[Grandson, you must remember that the people are behind us, and we must not retreat! 】

[Remember, you must never forget the responsibility you bear! 】

Echoing what Mu Chen had done to him in the past, tears slowly fell from the corners of his eyes, and his shoulders continued to tremble.

Grandpa died on the front line, but here I am focusing on my personal relationship

Damn it!

Damn thing! ! !
