Chapter 276 The Holy Emperor Is Ill
Besides, after being used to eating delicacies from the mountains and the sea, it would be a bit strange to eat something plain all of a sudden.
Zixiao directly declined the good intentions of the Holy Prince.
Hearing this, the Holy Prince would naturally not force it.
He was not the kind of prince who used means to win people over. He just asked a few questions. If Zixiao was interested, he would naturally arrange it. If not, that would be just fine.
The reason why he did not ask Zuo Yuanfei was not that the Holy Prince ignored Zuo Yuanfei after confirming Zixiao's identity.
But from the beginning, Zuo Yuanfei's eyes had been fixed on Zixiao.
While paying attention to Zixiao, he looked around vigilantly.
For such a person, the Holy Prince did not think that he would need any palace maids to serve him.
The three entered the hall, which was similar to the outside, with classical and simple decorations, and there was not even a painting on the wall.
As a Holy Prince, it must be said that he seemed to be a bit "thrifty".
After inviting Zixiao and Zuo Yuanfei to take their seats, the Holy Prince brewed a pot of tea for them.
As the scent of tea rose into the air, the Holy Prince also said directly: "I guess this is Zixiao, Senior Zi?"
"Hmm?"
Zuo Yuanfei stared at the Holy Prince with his eyes.
He hid so deeply, how did the other party find out?
Let the junior master and himself come to this palace, is there any conspiracy?
Seeing Zuo Yuanfei's vigilant look, the Holy Prince hurriedly said: "Brother Zuo, don't be so vigilant, I have no other intentions, it's really Senior Zi's temperament is too obvious, so I accidentally guessed it, absolutely not mean to harm the two of you."
Zixiao gave Zuo Yuanfei a look, indicating that he didn't need to be so nervous.
As for the fact that the Holy Prince guessed his identity, he was not surprised.
Talking about temperament and the like is nonsense.
The main reason is that Zuo Yuanfei's performance is too obvious!
As long as you are not an idiot, you can see that Zixiao's identity is much higher than his, Zuo Yuanfei.
Is there another Zixiao in Yaoguang Holy Land? Obviously not.
If a Holy Prince can't even guess this, he shouldn't even think about the Holy Emperor position, and just be an idle prince.
"No need to call me senior, I'm not much older than you."
Hearing Zixiao admit his identity in person, the Holy Prince secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
If Zixiao said that he guessed wrong, he certainly couldn't say much, he could only apologize, but he couldn't continue talking.
You must be open and honest when talking to people.
This is the first lesson the Holy Prince learned.
"You are the junior uncle of Yaoguang Holy Land. Our forces are on good terms. You are a generation older than me, so I should call you senior. Moreover, on the road of cultivation, the master is the wisest, so it is right to call you senior."
"No need, you are old enough to call me old."
Zi Xiao said with a look of disdain: "Just call me like you call Zuo Yuanfei."
"Okay."
The Holy Prince nodded and said: "Brother Zi, I will be frank. You should have seen it before. My brother may not have a good impression of me."
"Good impression?"
Zi Xiao chuckled and said: "I am afraid it is not a matter of good impression. He should want to kill you as soon as possible, right?"
"..."
After being said so bluntly by Zi Xiao, the Holy Prince's face was a little embarrassed.
"To be honest, our Shenfeng Dynasty has had some changes recently."
"The Holy Emperor?"
"Yes."
Hearing Zixiao's question, the Holy Prince nodded, with a heavy look between his brows: "I don't know if my father has a problem with his cultivation method, or if there is any other reason, he has been... a little weak recently."
Weak?
If it was just weakness, I'm afraid these Holy Princes would not be so unscrupulous.
Before, the Tenth Prince and the Holy Prince in front of him had a conflict in public.
Such a situation has occurred, and it is clear that the Holy Emperor will not live long.
"In this case, why doesn't the Tenth Prince embarrass other brothers, but targets you so much?"
Hearing this, a bitter look appeared on the Holy Prince's face: "Because my biological mother is the Holy Queen."
"No wonder..."
Zixiao nodded. If this is the case, it is not surprising.
In the cultivation world, the Changsheng family and the Immortal Dynasty seem to attach great importance to blood.
The Holy Emperor and the Holy Empress are definitely the combination of two forces. The children they gave birth to are legitimate, while the other princes were born to concubines, so they are illegitimate.
In terms of bloodline, this Holy Prince is naturally qualified to inherit the throne of the Holy Emperor.
But he is also the thirty-second prince? What about the other legitimate brothers?
The Holy Prince also saw Zixiao's doubts and continued, "My eldest and third brothers have no intention of becoming Holy Emperors, and they have also joined other holy places."
Zixiao looked at the Holy Prince in front of him and became a little interested.
This Holy Prince only said that the eldest and third princes would not fight, but he did not say that he would not fight.
"Now, there is only me on the side of the Queen Mother, so it is normal for them to target me. After all, if it is normal, I am the one who will inherit the throne of the Holy Emperor."
"Oh? What about you, what do you think?"
"..."
Hearing Zixiao's question, the Holy Prince was silent for a moment, and then a light called ambition appeared in his eyes.
"I want to fight!"
"I must fight for this position of Holy Emperor, because it should belong to me!"
There was not only ambition in the eyes of the Holy Prince, but also the flames of anger and revenge.
Zixiao knew that the Holy Prince in front of him seemed to have a lot of worries.
But these had nothing to do with him, he came to find his master.
"Brother Zi, actually I have something to ask."
Here it comes!
Zixiao knew that the other party treated them so politely, and the Tenth Prince wanted them to join the camp over there.
It can be seen that this matter of succession seems not to be something that can be resolved within the Immortal Dynasty.
"What is it?"
The Holy Prince explained the rules of their Immortal Dynasty.
The reason why the Tenth Prince tried to win over Zixiao and Zuo Yuanfei and hold a gathering of geniuses again.
It was all for the matter of succession.
Under normal circumstances, one must have both high cultivation and talent to be able to inherit the throne of the Holy Emperor, but the most qualified ones all gave up the position.
The Holy Prince had good talent, a first-class character, and was a direct descendant.
That position was definitely his.
But when the Holy Prince said this, the anger in his eyes became more intense: "But that damn ancestor, I don't know what's wrong with him, he actually wants to select!!!"
"Ancestor?"
Seeing Zixiao's puzzled look, the Holy Prince took a deep breath, suppressed his anger and explained: "Yes, that is, an ancestor who is five generations away from the throne of the Holy Emperor of this generation!"
