Ever since the second prince, Lie Xingtian, took control of most of the power in the court, he had been cruel to the other princes and princesses, and the eldest prince was the first to die.

Although it was publicly stated that the eldest prince had assassinated Emperor Lie and was sentenced to death, secretly, everyone knew that it was just an excuse for the second prince Lie Xingtian to cover up the truth.

In order to make himself more conducive to seizing the throne, Lie Xingtian took advantage of Emperor Lie to be ill in bed and imprisoned the two princesses Lie Xingzhao and Lie Xingfei as well as several concubines in an unknown place.

Even Lie Xingle, who had no interest in the throne and only wanted to be a free king, disappeared at some point, but most likely he was secretly dealt with by Lie Xingtian.

Lie Xingtian's various cruel actions are enough to prove that he is a cold-blooded man who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals and has no regard for brotherhood.

Lie Xingren knew that he would soon be killed by his second brother, so he had been saving strength and keeping a low profile. Even this humble teahouse was one of the strongholds he built.

As Lin Yuqing was Lie Xingren's most trusted subordinate, the eyes and ears of the second prince in the teahouse naturally knew her.

After she took Xuan Jingchen to a small toilet in the teahouse to connect the code, several secret guards who were observing in secret immediately sent a message to the third prince Lie Xingren.

"You two, please come this way."

A middle-aged man with a scar at the corner of his eye personally led Lin Yuqing and two others to the private room on the second floor of the teahouse.

After arriving at the private room on the second floor, the middle-aged man knocked on the door and said respectfully: "Tell the Third Prince that Miss Lin is already here."

"come in."

A gentle voice came from inside the house, making people feel very friendly and comfortable.

Lin Yuqing opened the door and saw the third prince Lie Xingren, his eyes filled with tears.

Suddenly wet and excited, she did not forget the etiquette, and immediately saluted the third prince and said: "My slave, please see your highness, the third prince."

"Qing'er, you have been by my side for many years, so there is no need to be reserved."

Third Prince Lie Xingren said with a smile, his tone was particularly gentle.

"Thank you, Your Highness, Third Prince."

Lin Yuqing wiped away her tears and raised her eyes to look at the third prince.

Xuan Jingchen on the side was also looking at the third prince of the Lie Kingdom, his bright purple eyes flashing with a strange look.

"In the middle stage of Yuanhun Realm, the cultivation qualifications are pretty good for the Earth Realm." Xuan Jingchen commented in his heart.

Sensing Xuan Jingchen's gaze, Lie Xingren couldn't help but look at the silver-haired woman in front of him who came with Lin Yuqing.

Her eyes are lively and her facial features are delicate and beautiful. Although she is a bit petite, her figure is exquisite, especially her slightly flowing silver hair, which is extremely eye-catching.

Her appearance is fresh and refined, even the many concubines in Lie Palace are not half as good as her, she is simply a peerless beauty.

But Lie Xingren only looked at it for a moment and immediately stopped his gaze. He turned to look at Lin Yuqing and asked doubtfully: "Qing'er, who is this girl?"

Hearing this, Lin Yuqing couldn't help but feel a little excited, and hurriedly introduced: "Your Highness, this girl's name is Xuan Jingchen, she is the Immortal Transformation monk that I have just recruited to help Your Highness obtain the throne."

"Monk in the Immortal Realm!"

Hearing this, Lie Xingren couldn't help but be surprised and looked at Xuan Jingchen carefully.

The guard beside him, Jin Hui, didn't quite believe it. In his opinion, Xuan Jingchen was just a weak woman with no strength to restrain a chicken.

"Lin Yuqing, Your Highness didn't ask you to leave Cangzhou with the Meteor Immortal Palace Seal. Why did you come back at this critical period and bring a white-haired girl of unknown origin? What a nonsense." Jin Hui frowned and said with a gloomy expression.

The second prince has been looking for the Fallen Immortal Palace Seal, and Lin Yuqing brought the Fallen Immortal Palace Seal back to Lieyang City. This may not bring trouble to His Highness the Third Prince.

He wanted to continue scolding Lin Yuqing, but Lie Xingren raised his hand to signal him to stop.

Lie Xingtian stared at Xuan Jingchen calmly and said indifferently: "I believe what Qing'er said, so senior Xuan, please take a seat."

"Your Highness..." Jin Hui hesitated to speak.

He always felt that Xuan Jingchen was unreliable. Even a cultivator in the Immortal Realm might not be able to fight against the poisonous cultivator next to the second prince.

Xuan Jingchen was not polite and walked directly to the seat and sat down.

Seeing this, Lin Yuqing became a little nervous. She guessed what Xuan Jingchen was going to say next, but she didn't know how the Third Prince would react.

Xuan Jingchen went straight to the point and said, "His Royal Highness, Third Prince, how about we discuss a deal."

"What deal?"

Lie Xingren asked with interest.

"It's very simple. If I want to help you win the throne, I need a spiritual object from the Fallen Immortal Palace that can help you achieve breakthroughs in cultivation." Xuan Jingchen said.

Hearing this, Lie Xingren was slightly startled, as if he did not expect Xuan Jingchen to propose such a condition.

"This……"

Lie Xingren couldn't help but hesitate.

Lin Yuqing was already pulling on Xuan Jingchen's sleeves in a panic, and said anxiously: "You damn bastard, you really want to take advantage of the Fallen Immortal Palace, can't you change the conditions?"

Jin Hui also had a dissatisfied look on his face. The Fallen Immortal Palace was an important secret forbidden area of ​​the Lie Kingdom. Only previous Lie Emperors were eligible to enter, but this little girl was thinking about the treasure inside!

"Your Highness, you must not agree to this woman of unknown origin..."

As soon as Jin Hui was about to persuade, Lie Xingren decisively agreed.

"Okay, I agree."

"But, Your Highness, that is the treasure in the Fallen Immortal Palace!"

However, Lie Xingren waved his hand to interrupt Jin Hui's words and said firmly: "Jin Huwei, there is no need to say any more."

Then he looked at Xuan Jingchen and continued: "But I need to add a condition before I can truly agree."

"What conditions?"

"The Lie Kingdom is facing the crisis of destruction in the future. I hope Miss Xuan that you can take action to protect the people of the Lie Kingdom once." Lie Xingren said seriously.

Xuan Jingchen raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "Okay, but I also have to add a condition."

"Hey, don't go too far!"

When Lin Yuqing heard that Xuan Jingchen was opening her mouth, she couldn't help but glared at her and warned her not to mess around.

However, Xuan Jingchen ignored her and continued: "That is the treasure promised to me. I want to choose it myself."

"No problem." Lie Xingren readily agreed.

Seeing that His Majesty the Third Prince had agreed, Lin Yuqing and Jin Hui who were present could no longer persuade him.

When they walked out of the room after discussing, a man suddenly hurried in from outside the teahouse, shouting anxiously.

"Something is going wrong. His Majesty the Second Prince is going to execute more than two hundred people from the Lie Kingdom on the street. Now the entire street in Xicheng District is blocked, and everyone else is blocked from the outside!"

"what?!"

As soon as this news came out, everyone in the teahouse couldn't help but turn pale with fear.

They knew that His Majesty the Second Prince was cruel and murderous, but they never imagined that he would be so cruel as to massacre the citizens of his own country.
