Chapter 21, Kind Father and Filial Son
__________________________
Chu Xiu had never planned to participate in this farce-like discussion contest.
His Great Dao of Returning to Oneness is a transcendental Dao that can be compared with the Dao of Heaven. Looking at the vast universe, it is also an absolute peak Dao that cannot be compared with any prince or princess present, including the high and mighty Qingfeng Immortal Emperor.
If he were to reveal the Great Dao of Returning to Oneness now, Qingfeng Immortal Emperor would certainly doubt his true identity.
Even if he did not doubt it, there is a great possibility that he would be imprisoned forever and study his Dao seriously.
Sacrificing a son might break through the forbidden realm that only the Emperor of Man and Heaven had reached in legend. Even if there is only a one in ten thousand chance, with the cold and bad character of Qingfeng Immortal Emperor, he would definitely sacrifice the third prince without hesitation in exchange for such an opportunity.
Therefore, he must not go on stage, otherwise he would surely die.
Chu Xiu picked up the mutton-fat jade cup on the table and smashed a mouthful of immortal wine, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked like he was savoring it.
Seeing this,
The Sixth Prince raised his eyebrows and picked up the wine glass.
What is the Third Prince thinking? Is he going to give up?
No, the Emperor will never allow it.
So, what is the reason that makes the Third Prince so confident?
Boom——
A thunderous noise erupted on the dome, attracting everyone's attention.
The discussion ended, and the winner was decided.
The incarnation of the Great Dao dissipated.
In the Yunxiao Palace, on the lotus platform, Nangong Yanyu suddenly opened his eyes, his face was like gold paper, and with a wow, a blood arrow spurted out of his mouth, shooting several feet away, dyeing the floor tiles made of fairy jade red... As if all the strength in his body was drained, he collapsed on the lotus platform, staring at the Seventh Prince, his lips trembling, as if he had something to say, but before he opened his mouth, his eyes rolled up and he fainted.
The Great Dao was injured, the Dao heart was covered with dust, and his Dao journey should be over.
The princes and princesses felt sympathetic.
When he thought that he might end up like this later, he couldn't help but feel cold in his heart.
After defeating Nangong Yanyu, the seventh prince Nangong Yue's face was as pale as paper, his breath was disordered, his eyes were bloodshot, his body trembled and he slowly stood up, and clasped his fists to the Immortal Emperor sitting on the golden throne. His avenue also had problems. Although it was not as miserable as the second prince, it was not much better.
Pa Pa Pa——
Qingfeng Immortal Emperor clapped his hands and laughed: "Not bad, not bad, Xiaoqi has indeed improved."
"Sit down and rest."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, cough cough cough~" The seventh prince coughed up blood, lowered his head, and staggered to his seat.
Wait for him to sit down.
Qingfeng Immortal Emperor looked around at his children, full of expectation, and chuckled: "Who will go in the second game..."
As for Nangong Yanyu who fainted on the lotus platform, he didn't even look at him.
A sigh was like a Huangzhong Dalu, which was heard by everyone in Yunxiao Palace.
In front of the lotus platform where Nangong Yanyu fainted, a woman with a purple veil covering her face and whose toes could not be seen when she lowered her head appeared.
She wore a long purple dress with complicated patterns, and the hem of the skirt drooped to the ground, like a blooming purple lotus. Her long wavy red hair was tied into a woman's bun, revealing her fair and slender neck.
She was like the incarnation of the Great Dao of Fire of the whole world. Just standing there, she was more dazzling than countless suns combined, as if she was going to burn the whole world.
"Your Majesty Yin Ji..."
"Lady Yin Ji..."
The princes and princesses stood up and bowed slightly to the woman to show respect.
Chu Xiu followed suit, lowered his head, turned his eyes, and secretly looked at this woman with a strong aura.
Yin Ji was the biological mother of the second prince Nangong Yan, and one of the three quasi-emperors of the Qingfeng Immortal Dynasty. Not only was she extremely powerful, but her methods were also vigorous and resolute. Because Qingfeng Immortal Emperor has been in seclusion for many years, she is in charge of many affairs of the Immortal Dynasty.
Even the other two quasi-immortal emperors are very wary of Yin Ji and are polite to him. It can even be said that in the Qingfeng Immortal Dynasty, Yin Ji's status is completely second to one person and above trillions of people.
Seeing her appear.
Qingfeng Immortal Emperor no longer leans lazily, straightens his posture, and smiles: "Why are you here?"
Yin Ji folded her hands on her lower abdomen, with a dignified and noble temperament, her cherry red eyes moved slightly, looking at Nangong Yanyu who fainted on the lotus platform, and sighed: "Alas, if I hadn't come, Yanyu would have died here today."
"Your Majesty, please allow me to take him away and heal his wounds."
Qingfeng Immortal Emperor smiled and waved his hand: "Hey~ Yin Ji's words are inappropriate, the second son is the heir of this emperor, as a father, how can I bear to watch my son die and ignore it."
But trash, throw it away!
What kind of urine are you, don't we know it? You wish that all the brothers and sisters present would perish together.
"Do you think so?" Qingfeng Immortal Emperor turned his head to look at the princes and princesses in the palace.
"Yes, yes, yes..."
The eldest prince bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty is the most loving father in the world. He cares deeply about my brothers and sisters. He is reluctant to scold me on weekdays. How could he watch the second son die here?"
"Brother, you are right. Your Majesty is the most loving father in the world. When I become stronger in the future, I will definitely "respect" Your Majesty well." Princess Nangong Xuan said with a smile.
Such a scene of fatherly love and filial piety is really touching! Qingfeng Immortal Emperor sighed secretly and said softly to Yin Ji: "The second son, knowing that the fairy jade floor tiles are extremely cold, is still resting here. Yin Ji, take him down quickly, don't let him catch a cold."
It turns out that the fairy king can also catch a cold. I have never seen such a thing in my life...
Chu Xiu's mouth twitched.
The second son's Dao was injured, his Dao heart was dusty, and his life was at stake. Damn it, you are concerned about whether he will catch a cold?
Kindness is so damn kind.
The princes and princesses were all...
"I thank your majesty for your concern on behalf of Yanyu." Yin Ji waved her hand, and an invisible force wrapped around the unconscious Nangong Yanyu, and the two disappeared in an instant.
Wait for Yin Ji to lead her son away.
Qingfeng Immortal Emperor returned to his original lazy look, leaning on the throne, his eyes sweeping.
That means, what are you waiting for, keep playing music, keep dancing!
The princes and princesses looked at each other, but no one stood up for a while.
The miserable state of the second and seventh sons was right in front of them, how dare they leave rashly, the damage to the Dao is no joke...
The Qingfeng Immortal Emperor, whose figure was distorted and blurred, seemed to be out of this time and space. Seeing that all his children were silent and bowed their heads, it was obvious that they had no intention of leaving, so he narrowed his eyes.
"Why, are you scared?"
"Since you are scared, I will personally call your names."
Qingfeng Immortal Emperor turned his head to look at Chu Xiu, and then looked at Nangong Fenghuang, "Xunzhen, Fenghuang, you are both the third brother, and your age is not much different. You will play in the second round."
The princes and princesses who were not called all breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the two with a bit of sympathy.
The third princess Nangong Fenghuang raised her phoenix eyes slightly, looked at Chu Xiu, and slowly stood up.
"I give up..." Chu Xiu stood up and clasped his fists to Qingfeng Immortal Emperor.
Shua——
The atmosphere in the hall was silent, and the eyes of the princes and princesses fell on Chu Xiu in unison, which was unbelievable.
Brave, third brother, you are too brave.
How dare you!
Qingfeng Immortal Emperor did not get angry as expected, but asked lightly: "Reason~"
Chu Xiu flipped his hand to take out the Heavenly Sword Order and smiled.
"I'm lucky. I got a Heavenly Sword Token. I won't fight with you guys for it."
The Sixth Prince's eyes were full of understanding.
The others also looked at the silver token in Chu Xiu's hand, their eyes full of envy and jealousy.
No wonder the Third Prince looked so confident. It turned out that he already had a Heavenly Sword Token in his hand.
"Third Prince, you are really lucky." Qingfeng Immortal Emperor praised, and suddenly changed the subject, "But..."
Chu Xiu lowered his eyes, ready to activate the boundary gate and escape far away.
