Douluo's Long Night

Chapter 145 Undercurrent
The next day.

early morning.

The news of the second prince's death did not spread. According to the news from Wuhundian's eyeliner, the news of the second prince's death was known to the palace last night.

The second prince did not return late at night, and the ministers in the imperial womb did not receive the notification from the prince that he would not return tonight, so they felt that the prince might be in trouble.

The Minister of the Palace sent a team of soldiers to walk along the way from the palace to the banquet venue, but the soldiers found the second prince's body halfway.

The retainers in David Qing's palace were shocked when they learned about it!
In addition to rescuing the prince's body from the pit, they also closed the journey to investigate the cause of the second prince's death.

Inside and outside the pit are two soul emperor-level guards of the second prince, one of whom uses a green sword as his martial soul, and the two men in black who died around him all died of sword wounds.

And the Qingjian Wuhun soul master is covered with scars all over his body, presumably because he was besieged.

All the guards brought by the second prince died, several of them fell into the pit and died together, two of the assassins died on the spot, and the rest of the assassins should have fled.

The big pit in front of the carriage is suspected to be the result of Davis' previous assassinations, but it is still unbelievable that Soulzong died in ebony.

No trace of other people was found around the scene of the forest crime. The death of the second prince was preliminarily judged to be attacked by a man in black. The man in black risked his life to attack, shot and wounded the horse.

The blockade of the news was probably only in the early morning. After half in the morning, the news of the second prince's death spread like wildfire, and everyone in Xingluo knew about it.

Everyone has guesses about the person who made the attack this time-Davis.

Everyone who participated in the banquet knew that David embarrassed Davis in public. Given Davis' character of eliminating obstacles, there was no doubt about doing such a thing at this time except that he seemed a little anxious.

It is said that after Emperor Xingluo knew about this, his complexion was also very unsightly.

Davis bedroom.

"You said I ordered it?" Davis frowned, his face gloomy and terrifying.

Standing opposite Davis was the White Tiger Guard who presided over the assassination last night. Only now did the leader of the White Tiger Guard realize that he had caused a catastrophe and that a catastrophe was imminent.

Davis was well-informed in the palace, so he naturally also learned the news of David Qing's death. The murderer died at the scene of the crime. Although no evidence could be found on the murderer, these people were recognized and belonged to Dai Weiqing. Wes' guard.

Davis immediately realized that he might have been framed by someone, but he couldn't figure out how the other party bypassed his order to his guard.

He questioned the guards who went with him, but there was no clue, and then he started to question the White Tiger Guard, but he did find some clues.

The guard's face was pale and he reluctantly replied: "Your Highness, the order given by Director Sa yesterday was that you ordered the White Tiger Guard to ambush His Highness the Second Prince. I think this is indeed your order, so just"

"Director Sa? Let him come over!"

Not long after, the thin supervisor with a stern face came to Davis, that is, this person was bribed by Wuhundian with carrots and sticks.

"Bai Huwei said that you gave the order yesterday. What's the matter? You'd better explain it to me!" Davis said with a stern look.

Director Sa did not change his face in the face of danger, pretending to be a victim: "Your Highness, I was dealing with business in the palace yesterday, and then I saw a letter you wrote to me, which stated that I should assassinate David Qing tonight. I have brought that letter, please read it."

With that said, Director Sa took out the secret letter and handed it to Davis.

Davis snatched the letter and checked it carefully. Really, it was really written in his handwriting, and it was clearly written, which was the assassination of David Qing.

"..." Davis' face darkened, "Did you believe the letter when you saw it!?"

Director Sa had a bitter expression on his face: "Your Highness, I can't help but believe it. This is exactly your handwriting, and it is still on my desk. Even the hint of assassination is exactly the same as yours. If I don't take any action, I'm afraid You come back and blame."

"Humph!"

Davis had nothing to say for a while, the letter was indeed complete, and he couldn't find any faults, but he didn't expect that such a thing would appear under his nose!

Director Sa's face was bitter, and he was also slightly calculating in his heart. Of course, this letter was not written by Davis himself, nor was it written by Wuhundian, otherwise it would be impossible to completely imitate Davis' handwriting and assassination hints.

This is what he wrote himself!

Director Sa is usually very good at observation, and has imitated Davis' handwriting almost exactly the same. This letter is the evidence he used to excuse him.

Beside him, Davis was still furious.

Although he always wanted David to die, he was very displeased that the sewage was held on his head like this, so displeased that he even wanted to kill all the idiots involved in the assassination!
"You said you didn't succeed at the time? Then you evacuated?" Davis asked the White Tiger Guard beside him.

"Yes, our team lost eight people, and the opponent still has two soul emperors, so we retreated strategically."

"Since we retreated, why is David Qing still dead!? Besides, retreating, you are a coward! If you really killed me, I will admit it, but someone is playing oriole catcher after you, hmph!"

Davis snorted coldly, temporarily dismissing the guard's crime, and began to pace and think.

After walking around for a few steps, Davis ordered the guards: "Call me the White Tiger Guards, and I will ask them one by one."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Director Sa again: "Don't think that the matter is over like this, you have a lot of responsibility, and you better pray that you are lucky."

After half an hour,

Davis finished asking Baihuwei, knew the names of the people involved in the assassination, and also learned the identities of the two corpses that were not recovered, and he did not get the news he wanted from Baihuwei.

Davis sat on the sofa with a sullen face, fisting his hands in front of him and resting his elbows on his knees.

Since there is nothing wrong with the White Tiger Guard, it can only be that the person who sent the letter was lurking in the palace, or there was a wave of assassins in ambush after the White Tiger Guard retreated.

Davis feels that finding out the former is more important now.

Davis dry-washed his face with both hands, feeling depressed and resentful.

At the dinner party, he noticed that David Qing's state was not right. Although David Qing usually complained to him, he was not stupid as a prince, so how could he speak nonsense to himself at the noble dinner party.

At that time, he was in a state of extreme anger and did not react, but now Davis has recalled it.

It turned out that someone was taking the opportunity to plot against him, and David Qing's strange behavior must have been manipulated by someone, just to attract the storm after the assassination to him.

The problem must have been with whoever was serving or cooking David Ching at the dinner party.

Davis's mind was a little messed up at this moment. These messy information were churning in his thoughts, and he didn't have any good ideas for a while.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
There was a knock on the door of Davis' bedroom.

Davis tilted his head: "Come in."

The door opened slowly, and a man who looked like a guard walked in.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty has called you over."

Davis' face darkened, he nodded silently, got up and went to the palace to meet his father, Emperor Xingluo.

................................................

inside the palace,
Dai Mubai sat in front of a certain long table, frowning tightly, with a wave of his long arm, he pulled all the things on the table to the ground.

"Dai! Wei! Si!" Dai Mubai's eyes were blood red, and the anger on his face couldn't be suppressed.

"Too much deception!" Dai Mubai gritted his teeth, hammered the table and got up, and lay down on the window sill like in the past, staring at the distant scenery, as if this would allow him to breathe some free air.

Dai Mubai's thinking is different from others, as the third prince of the Star Luo Empire, he is very talented and handsome, but he hates that he was born seven years later than his elder brother Davis.

The reason why David Qing was not selected as the heir and he was chosen was not only because of his poor cultivation talent and his Dai Mubai's high cultivation talent, but also because he could join hands with the selected fiancee Zhu Zhuqing to perform the martial soul fusion skill ——Ghost White Tiger

He and Zhu Zhuqing, Davis and Zhu Zhuyun can all display the martial soul fusion skill, but the second brother, David Qing, does not have this talent.

After all, isn't the difference between Dai Mubai and Davis just those seven years?

It was these damn seven years that became an insurmountable ups and downs in his life. He hated his own family, he hated the royal family of the Star Luo Empire, and he even hated his parents!
But he has no choice, the suppression will not stop because of his resentment, he is very hard every day in the palace.

In this difficult time, it was his second brother David Qing who sheltered him and gave him a safe place to stay.

Although the second brother also has his own goals, he really cares about him, which allows him to find a trace of family affection in this cold family.

He had always believed that relying on himself and his second brother, as long as he kept fighting, he would be able to defeat Davis one day.

In the end, reality dealt him a merciless blow, and his second brother, David Qing, died!

The love, hard work and dream between him and his second brother were shattered at this moment.

Dai Mubai didn't have any evidence, but he still thought of Davis immediately, he subjectively believed that Davis was the murderer.

This was the threat Davis gave him, and he could already see Davis putting on that arrogant face and saying to him: If you continue to fight against me, David Qing is your role model!
Dai Mubai gritted his teeth resentfully, Davis must mean that!
The eyes staring out of the window didn't focus on any real objects, his fists propped on the window sill were clenched tightly, he didn't want to live such a miserable life again!

Dai Mubai's thoughts are at a loss, without the help of his second brother, he is even less likely to be Davis' opponent, he has no savings in the palace, no contacts, the only thing that can threaten Davis is his cultivation.

He knew the rules of the Star Luo Imperial Family. Only by defeating Davis before the age of 25 could he gain support. The Star Luo Empire had always been a place of strength.

But before Davis is 25 years old, it is too difficult to surpass Davis's cultivation level. Although his talent is better than Davis, what's the use.

Dai Mubai smiled wryly at the window, his bitter face was reflected on the window.

Dai Mubai's heart was filled with grief and indignation, but he couldn't shed tears, he knew that now was not the time to mourn for his second brother, he was already in danger of protecting himself.

But, what should I do?
Maybe...it really should be like that person said, indulge yourself before you are crippled or killed at the age of 25, this life is worth it...

For no reason, Dai Mubai thought of the boy from the Luo family who persuaded him to indulge last night, what he said made sense...

Indulgent thought germs usually breed in Dai Mubai's heart, Dai Mubai felt the blood boiling all over his body, as if he had found his life goal.

That's right, since I can't succeed, why don't I do what I want before I get killed?
Just... One last try and challenge Davis.

at the same time.

When the news of the death of the second prince of Xingluo stirred up the entire Xingluo, Xu Junfang, one of the behind-the-scenes drivers of the accident, sat in the auditorium of the Xingluo Great Spirit Arena as if nothing had happened.

Of course Xu Junfang heard the good news that the mission was completed last night. He also contributed to the success of the assassination of the second prince Xingluo. Grandpa promised him that he would be credited for the successful assassination.

Although credit is extremely important in the Hall of Spirits, the most important thing is strength. Strength is not just cultivation, but also fighting skills and fighting qualities.

This holiday is a holiday for the Wuhundian Elite Academy to adjust, digest, and improve for these students. Although Xu Junfang feels that with his excellent talent, he can enter the second-year promotion competition even if he doesn't exercise, but people always have to improve.

Martial arts will regress if not tempered for a long time, so Xu Junfang came, and he chose to participate in the battle in the Xingluo Great Soul Arena while cultivating his soul power during the holiday.

Before, Xu Junfang and Hu Liena had been fighting two-on-two with the Tianyao team, but this time they would fight alone during the holiday.

"The next game..."

The host's voice on the soul fighting field brought Xu Junfang's thoughts back to the upcoming battle.

"Shui Bing'er, the master of the beast martial soul, condensed water and ice luan, vs. Wu Kourong, the master of the martial soul of the weapon and the cold hook!"

………Um?Shui Binger?
