After arranging everything, Lei Chengjun coldly glanced at the four princes, causing them to feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Announce the decree, summon the Slaughtering King, Hui King, An King, and the other princes back to the capital."
Everyone who had yet to recover from their shock sucked in a breath of cold air. Lei Haoyan and the others felt their vision darken and almost fainted.
They all knew that from this moment on, the position of Crown Prince had no fate with them!
Lei Chengjun had more than ten princes under him, and the four of them were the strongest.
As for the other princes, some had already given up and only knew how to recite poems and make merry.
Some of them were secretly supporting one of them in order to protect the path to success.
There were also some who were chased out of the capital early on. These people were also the first batch of people to be eliminated. Unexpectedly, they benefited from this disaster and once again entered Lei Chengjun's sight.
As for Lei Chengjun, he could be considered to have seen through it. Actually, it did not matter who inherited the throne, as long as it was not an incapable ruler.
He was also confident that the pure land he had created for his descendants would be enough for them to enjoy for a few lifetimes.
Furthermore, as long as there was the Imperial Consecration Hall, even if the one sitting on the throne was a puppet emperor, it did not matter.
After doing all this, Lei Chengjun returned to the palace, leaving behind a group of people who were trapped in the array and watched by eight Sky Origin Stage experts.
The reason why he had to watch them was to prevent the news from spreading. This way, he could catch those Spirit Cultivator Sects unprepared!
The ones who were more embarrassed were the people from the Starfall Dynasty's diplomatic group.
They came to the Thunderflame Dynasty's Imperial Capital with various goals, but now it seemed that they were all going to be wasted.
To the Starfall Dynasty and Northern Wei Dynasty, Lei Chengjun's actions were also greatly out of their expectations. They could not imagine that Lei Chengjun would do such a crazy thing.
As for the people from the Six Kingdoms of the Western Region, they were all scared out of their wits!
What made them feel awkward was that they couldn't leave either. They could only wait until everything was settled.
If it was any other time, Ying Yuan would definitely jump out and accuse him. However, at this time, he sat there abnormally obediently.
Because no one could be sure that Lei Chengjun would not do something even crazier!
Of course, not everyone had to stay here. For example, the people from the Discipline Commission and the Dark Thunder Guards were let go because they also had a mission!
If the Thunderfire Dynasty wanted to wipe out all the sects with lightning speed, the Discipline Commission and the Dark Lightning Guards would be needed.
Leng Shiqi followed Eunuch Gao back to the headquarters of the Dark Thunder Guards, but he still couldn't calm down. Eunuch Gao also sighed and said, "We only heard a few words from His Majesty before, and knew that His Majesty would make a big move.
However, Your Majesty actually made such a shocking move. If Your Majesty had made this decision earlier, the Thunderflame Dynasty would definitely have improved. "
Then, he changed the topic, "Tell me, what did you do in Void Scar Sky Capital? Why is the Heavenly Thunderfire Orb in your hands?"
Leng Shiqi told him about how he stole the Heavenly Thunderfire Orb at the last moment. At that time, there were many people, so he couldn't hide it.
As for how he used the Earth Chaos Formation to kill the 37 Spirit Astral Realm cultivators, he didn't say it. He didn't want Eunuch Gao to know his true strength.
And he was sure that Li Jue Cheng would definitely help him keep it a secret.
Thinking of Li Jue Cheng, Leng Shiqi's killing intent exploded. It was time to deal with this huge hidden danger!
After listening to Leng Shiqi's story, Eunuch Gao continued to ask, "There was a period of time in Void Scar Sky where about 40 Spirit Cultivators died. Do you know the reason?"
"Disciple remembers that at that time, everyone was fighting for the Heavenly Thunderfire Orb in the Yellow Mud Swamp. Disciple didn't pay attention to others, so I don't know."
Leng Shiqi confirmed that everyone at that time was dead and there would be no survivors. He said these words calmly in his heart.
Eunuch Gao had been secretly observing the subtle expressions on Leng Shiqi's face, but so far, he hadn't seen any flaws.
He asked the third question, "Why did you steal the Heavenly Thunderfire Orb?
Aren't you afraid of offending all the princes? "
Leng Shiqi smiled at this time and said, "Master, before His Majesty's birthday banquet, I heard that His Majesty was going to use Void Scar Sky as the trial ground to choose the crown prince. At that time, I had been puzzled.
Later, in Void Scar Sky, I had some contact with the four princes and felt that it wasn't simple.
In my humble opinion, His Majesty didn't plan to choose the crown prince this time, but was preparing to test the next target!
In addition, to be honest, I am also ambitious. "
When he said the last word, Eunuch Gao suddenly laughed.
"Hahahaha, good, good ambition!"
Eunuch Gao stood up and said, "Liu Xingzhi, I know that you have a lot of secrets. You are very smart and ambitious.
I don't care about these. On the contrary, the stronger you are, the more power you have, and the more help you will be to our family!
This time, you saw through it very clearly and did well. His Majesty said that he wouldn't mistreat you. You will be rewarded sooner or later.
However, the Dark Thunder Guards also have a very important mission to do, so I need you to run around again. "
"Master, please instruct me." Leng Shiqi cupped his hands and said.
Eunuch Gao took out three golden tablets and lined them up in front of Leng Shiqi. He said, "These are the three top sects that the Thunderfire Dynasty is going to destroy.
However, it's easier said than done to destroy the top sects.
Therefore, the Dark Thunder Guards have to be prepared. You can choose one.
Of course, you don't have to be too worried. The Dark Thunder Guards aren't the main force. They are only in charge of intelligence and cleaning. However, this is a great contribution. "
Leng Shiqi nodded secretly. Every top sect was a thorn in the side of the Thunderfire Dynasty. It was not easy for Lei Chengjun to destroy three top sects this time.
He also understood that the main force to destroy the top sects was the Combat Army and the Imperial Hall of Worship. It was good for him to get some credit.
The three top sects were the Thousand Illusion Sword Sect, the Bright Mirror Palace and the Mechanical City.
Leng Shiqi made his choice after a slight hesitation. It was the Thousand Illusion Sword Sect!
First of all, the Thousand Illusions Sword Sect was the weakest among the top sects. Over the years, the Thousand Illusions Sword Sect had been on the decline.
There was only one Sky Origin Realm expert left in the sect. This person's Qi and blood had been declining for a long time. He did not appear for many years in order to maintain his vitality.
Since he was going to get some credit, of course, he had to pick a soft persimmon.
In addition, he had some enmity with the Thousand Illusion Sword Sect.
He had never forgotten that the Gang Spirit Realm expert of the Thousand Illusion Sword Sect had almost killed him in the South Divine Peak of Muchen Commandery!
It was never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Now, the opportunity had finally come.
Finally, he was also very interested in the cultivation method of the Thousand Illusion Sword Sect!
The move Dazzling Flowers was inspired by the abandoned disciple of the Thousand Illusion Sword Sect, Ou Ziyu, to complete the fusion.
Moreover, the current Chaotic Blossom Dazzling Eyes was a bit useless to him. If he could obtain the inheritance of the Thousand Illusion Sword Sect, he might be able to comprehend it by analogy and increase the power of this move to the next level.
Thinking of Ou Ziyu, Leng Shiqi was a little curious about Ou Ziyu's current cultivation and where he had gone.
After all, Ou Ziyu had another part of the inheritance of the Divine Illusion Palace. Leng Shiqi was also very envious.
Leng Shiqi immediately said, "I want to go to Pinghui Commandery to destroy the Thousand Illusion Sword Sect!"
"Well, since you have made your choice, I will do as you say."
Speaking of this, Eunuch Gao seemed to have thought of something. "By the way, this time, in order to catch them off guard, you can't take the people from the Dark Thunder Guard headquarters. However, you can dispatch all the Dark Thunder Guards in Pinghui Commandery at will.
The East Guarding Thunder Flame Army, which is responsible for dealing with the Thousand Illusion Sword Sect, is also moving secretly. They will arrive in Pinghui Commandery in four or five days. You can set off in three days.
This time, there will be an expert from the Imperial Hall of Worship with you. Speaking of which, this person has a relationship with you.
Well, you must be tired after coming out of Air Scar Sky. Go and rest first. "
"I will take my leave."
Leng Shiqi turned and left. He didn't care too much about who the expert with him was. Because before going to Pinghui Commandery, he had something more important to do!
