Chapter 114 Xiao Feng Meets Lai Xun
it is good!
Everyone evacuated the main hall. The kingdom's array masters were notified to set up an isolation array in the main hall, prohibiting anyone from approaching within a kilometer of the main hall!
After King Raihun gave the order, the assembled princes and ministers below cried out in alarm, "Your Majesty, no!"
However, after King Rai Xun boasted about his royal courage and boldness, he finally managed to drive everyone out of the hall.
Once the formation was complete, King Lai Xun couldn't wait to ask Xiao Feng, "What did you mean by what you just said to me in a telepathic message?"
Xiao Feng looked at King Lai Xun, whose face was somewhat anxious, on the high throne, and calmly said, "Since things have developed to this point, I won't bother with your formalities."
"I'll lay bare my secret: I'm willing to use a formation powerful enough to annihilate a Saint-level expert in exchange for my son Xiao Tian's chance to live!"
Oh? I still don't understand. Please explain in detail, President Xiao. That way, it will save you some trouble today!
Seeing King Lai Xun's indifferent attitude, Xiao Feng replied, "I already said I won't lie. Even if you didn't ask, I would still explain things clearly."
Then, Xiao Feng recounted the whole story of his encounter with Zhu Chongjiu.
The transaction with Prince Zhurong was also completely transparent and revealed without any concealment.
After Xiao Feng finished speaking, King Lai Xun said, "Although you did not explain to me how you contacted this Prince Zhu Rong, I will not ask any further questions."
"I have a question. Since entering the snowfields, I, the Duke of Ruixue Kingdom, have been without news. Was I captured by you, or...?"
He could have lived, but the Duke of the Kingdom chose to stay, thus shielding Ninth Brother from the attack of the Qi Tianguan, and was reduced to ashes.
what?
Upon hearing this news, King Lai Xun instantly unleashed his full power, his eyes turning bloodshot as he stared at Xiao Feng below and asked!
King Rai Xun, please don't get agitated. I've already said it wasn't our Peace Chamber of Commerce that did it.
Although our Peace Chamber of Commerce has existed on this continent for tens of thousands of years and its strength is comparable to that of any kingdom, apart from some business dealings with your countries, we have never interfered in the affairs of any of your countries, nor have we ever killed any of your important ministers.
Despite the powerful aura emanating from King Lai Xun, Xiao Feng, a Saint-level beginner, remained unfazed. He stood firmly in the center of the hall like a pillar of strength, calmly explaining to King Lai Xun.
Upon hearing Xiao Feng's words, King Lai Xun's expression shifted from sorrow to anger, but he gradually calmed down. After a moment, King Lai Xun spoke, "Xiao Feng, you're trying to have your cake and eat it too. Like a reed in the wind, you'll side with whichever side is stronger. No wonder you've been doing business for millennia!"
King Rai Xun, you flatter me. I am not a fence-sitter. You are right, I have been doing business for thousands of years, and now I am doing business with you.
I'll trade a single immortal-level formation for my son Xiao Tian's life. Remember, not just one, but a whole formation.
"What about Ninth Brother?" King Lai Xun asked.
Xiao Feng smiled. "Don't worry about Ninth Brother. If he could die, he would have died long ago."
It's estimated that he has already found the source of water and is undergoing five-star body tempering.
Once he successfully tempers his body, he will achieve physical sainthood, and even the Heavenly Official Qi will be powerless against him.
Moreover, it's possible that Elder Qi might even die by his sword.
After listening to Xiao Feng's analysis of Zhu Chongjiu, King Lai Xun said, "You're wrong. Given Ninth Brother's personality, if he truly masters his skills, Elder Qi will definitely die by his sword."
Not only Elder Qi, but your son Zhurong will not escape either!
At this point, Xiao Feng quickly replied, "If it really comes to that, you should still persuade Ninth Brother not to kill Young Master Zhurong."
This Prince Zhurong has a very powerful background; we can't afford to offend him.
"If you're not careful, not only your Snow Kingdom, but even the Azure God Realm could cease to exist."
After warning King Lai Xun, Xiao Feng continued, "Alright, there's nothing more to say to you."
After saying that, Xiao Feng raised his hand and threw two egg-sized crystals that emitted a golden light toward Lai Xun on the high platform throne.
He added, "This is a trapping immortal formation and an annihilating immortal formation. The two formations are arranged together and are enough to kill a saint-level expert."
King Lai Xun caught the two crystals that floated slowly towards him. After examining them with his divine sense and internal energy, he showed a look of surprise and instantly put them into his storage ring.
Xiao Feng, are you just going to hand over this formation to me like this? Aren't you afraid I'll go back on my word?
If I send someone to that Prince Zhurong right now to file a complaint against you, you'll lose everything!
Xiao Feng smiled and replied, "I don't really trust you, but I believe that anyone Ninth Brother can trust is definitely not a villain."
King Lai Xun was immediately speechless by Xiao Feng's words. His face turned red, and he remained silent for a long time without uttering a single word.
Just as Xiao Feng turned to leave, King Lai Xun spoke up: "Why don't you stay here?"
I'll announce to the public that I've arrested and am under my control. Does this mean you might save your life?
Upon hearing King Lai Xun's words, Xiao Feng stopped in his tracks but did not turn around. He said, "Lai Xun, that Young Master Zhu Rong is not a fool."
This time, I didn't let Xiao Tian come along, which already made him resentful. If I didn't come back, I was afraid that he might do something unreasonable in a fit of anger.
I know that, given your relationship with Ninth Brother, it's impossible for you to help others murder him.
So, after some threats and persuasion from me, he didn't send Qi Lao to kill you and let me replace you.
Do you really think that a Saint-level expert can't kill you? Even though this capital has nearly a thousand Emperor-level experts.
You think everyone is like Ninth Brother?
However, things are different now. With the grand formation I've given you, you're not afraid of a Saint-level expert, but only one.
Speaking of which, I must thank Brother Ninth for eliminating one of them!
Having said this, Xiao Feng, with a solemn expression, slowly and firmly took steps, steadily walking towards the outside of the main hall. At the same time, he opened his mouth again and said in his deep, slightly weathered voice, "I don't have many years left to live. Since that's the case, let this be some good deeds I do before I die!"
His words seemed to be spoken not only to King Lai Xun, but more like a monologue. Although the surroundings were silent, with only his own footsteps and voices echoing in the empty hall, Xiao Feng seemed unconcerned as to whether anyone was listening.
And so, Xiao Feng walked unhurriedly towards the outside of the hall, continuing to express his thoughts. His voice was like the fading toll of a bell, initially clear and distinct, but gradually growing fainter with distance. When he finally uttered the last word, his voice was barely audible, like the faint tremor of a candle about to go out in the wind.
However, the moment the words left his mouth, Xiao Feng's figure had completely vanished from King Lai Xun's sight. A black shadow shot out like lightning, speeding towards the distant, vast snow-covered mountains at an astonishing pace. In the blink of an eye, the black shadow merged into the white, snowy world, leaving no trace whatsoever.
After Xiao Feng left, King Lai Xun looked at the vanguard's retreating figure and sighed, "A hero of his generation is destined to fade into obscurity!"
Just as King Lai Xun was sighing, a group of princes and ministers hurriedly returned to the main hall and asked King Lai Xun one after another about Xiao Feng's purpose in coming and the content of their conversation.
After witnessing this scene, King Raihun patiently dismissed them one by one, and then secretly summoned several of his trusted ministers to discuss important matters in his bedchamber.
Hmph! How can we just sit here and wait to die?
He dispatched his most trusted subordinates to secretly set up one set of this grand formation in the border town and another set in the capital.
If Ninth Brother really gets into trouble, then lure him into his formation and fight him to the death!
After King Lai Xun briefly recounted the events to his most trusted ministers and issued a secret order, he stood up with his hands behind his back, looked at the distant void, and thought to himself, "I am not that soft persimmon that Jin Ren of Shi Jin City can be squeezed whenever he wants. What use is he as a king if he doesn't avenge his grudges? Even if I can't catch up with Ninth Brother, I should at least be on par with him."
After saying that, King Lai Xun remembered the words Xiao Feng had said that had left him speechless!
