Chapter 35: Chapter 006 You are allowed to kill
"Whoa!"
"Whoa!"
...
A series of long neighs of horses soared straight into the sky.
As the dust settled, a large group of richly dressed soldiers on horseback rode in.
Yan Chuan sat at the front, slowly approaching. His eyes shone brightly as he surveyed the group. A group of soldiers followed closely behind, each full of vitality and battle intent.
"Who are you people? Don't you know what place this is?" the crown prince of Chu State shouted.
"Emperor of Yan, what do you mean? Who are they? Are you going to break the treaty?" the crown prince of Han State said coldly.
The Emperor of Yan frowned as he looked at these people.
All the powerful people of Yan State looked on in confusion. It seemed as if they had guessed something but were not sure.
Only Liu Gang of Zheng State narrowed his eyes at this moment.
"Hahaha, isn't this the co-king of Yan State? You finally show up?" Liu Gang said coldly.
"Co-king?"
"The son of Yan Tao?"
"Yan Chuan?"
...
All the crown princes showed expressions of surprise and looked at Yan Chuan on the tall horse carefully.
The co-king? Some of the powerful people of Yan State showed a glimmer of hope, but soon this glimmer disappeared. After all, the co-king was only a seventeen-year-old youth. This group of richly dressed soldiers must be the Guards of the Emperor, right?
What's the use of coming now?
The Emperor of Yan frowned and looked at Yan Chuan. At this moment, he also didn't understand Yan Chuan's purpose for coming here.
Yan Chuan's gaze swept around, paying a little attention to the three-colored divine ox. He glanced at the third senior brother of Liu Gang who was drinking calmly. He looked around at the leaders of the five countries and finally fixed his gaze on the Emperor of Yan.
"Yan Qiuyu, the five-nation conference, gambling over territories. Such a major event. Why didn't you inform me?" Yan Chuan said calmly.
"Hmm?" The crown princes of the four countries were slightly stunned.
Calling the Emperor of Yan by his name directly?
Not only the people of the four countries but also the powerful people of Yan State frowned. But the anger that had just arisen disappeared in an instant. Because in Yan State, Yan Chuan indeed had the right to call the Emperor of Yan by his name, Yan Qiuyu.
The co-king had the same status as the Emperor of Yan and was on an equal footing. Naturally, he could call the Emperor of Yan by his name directly.
Three hundred years ago, Yan Tao abdicated in favor of the ancestor of the Emperor of Yan. If it weren't for this status as the co-king, Yan Chuan should have been an elder of the Emperor of Yan. But because his status was on an equal footing with the Emperor of Yan, the Emperor of Yan could definitely tolerate Yan Chuan calling him by his name directly.
"I thought I could handle it!" The Emperor of Yan showed a wry smile.
"It doesn't matter. What's the result now?" Yan Chuan didn't dwell on this matter anymore and turned his attention outward.
"Result? Hahaha, your Yan State has lost eighty cities to our four countries! You're too late!" the crown prince of Chu State laughed.
"No, it's useless even if you came early!" the crown prince of Han State said disdainfully.
Yan Chuan smiled faintly and said, "Late? Who said it's late? As long as none of you have left, it's not late!"
"Oh? Do you still want to gamble again?" The crown prince of Han State's eyes lit up and said.
"Yes, if you want to gamble, you can continue. As long as you can represent Yan State!" The crown prince of Chu State also said excitedly.
Today, the crown princes of various countries are on a diplomatic mission to Yan State. They also aim to make contributions for their countries. The more cities they obtain, the greater their merits will be when they return.
Yan Chuan ignored the crown princes and looked at Liu Gang.
"Respected Liu, we meet again!" Yan Chuan said with a smile.
"Yes, we meet again!" Liu Gang also said coldly.
"The last time in the great formation, the forty-two cities that Zheng State lost to me. Have they been given yet?" Yan Chuan asked with a smile.
"Hmm?" Everyone looked at Liu Gang.
"How could Zheng State owe Yan State cities? Is it true or false?"
"Are you kidding? How could it be possible?"
...
"Hmph, Yan State is on the verge of destruction. You still want the forty-two cities of my Zheng State?" Liu Gang said angrily on his face.
"Hahaha, Liu Gang, think carefully before you speak. These forty-two cities were not promised by you. If you dare to deny it, you are smearing King Muye's face. Dare you deny it?" Yan Chuan glared and said.
Dare you deny it?
These three words were emphasized extremely heavily by Yan Chuan. It was like a huge hammer hitting Liu Gang hard.
Liu Gang opened his mouth to argue, but when the words reached his lips, he forcibly restrained himself. "You... you... you!"
"It doesn't matter. The five-nation gamble is not over yet. Continue. You can gamble them back!" Yan Chuan said with a smile.
"Could it be true?" The crown prince of Chu State looked at Liu Gang in surprise.
"Zheng State actually owes Yan State cities? How could it be?" The crown prince of Han State was also surprised.
Liu Gang's face flushed with anger, but in the end, he didn't refute.
"Dismount!" Yan Chuan said softly.
"Yes!" The richly dressed soldiers responded in unison.
"Rumble!"
Yan Chuan and more than two thousand richly dressed soldiers dismounted one after another.
After dismounting, Yan Chuan stepped forward and walked to the due south of the dueling arena. Huo Guang followed closely behind, glaring angrily at everyone.
"Liu Gang, all of you from Zheng State. Sit down. Now that I have arrived, everything is just beginning!" Yan Chuan said with a smile.
"Giddyap!"
"Giddyap!"
...
At the entrance of the drill ground, there was another sound of horses. Liu Jin returned.
Liu Jin led five hundred riders to the drill ground and dismounted one after another. At the same time, several soldiers were carrying a huge object at this moment.
"The dragon chair? The dragon chair on His Majesty's court?" an old minister of Yan State exclaimed.
What Liu Jin brought back was a nine-dragon celestial chair.
This dragon chair was much larger than the one on which the Emperor of Yan was currently sitting.
The number one chair of Yan State.
The old ministers of Yan State were about to get angry, but when their anger reached halfway, it all dissipated.
The dragon chair is a symbol of the emperor and cannot be defiled in the slightest by others. No one except the emperor can sit on it.
But the person in front of them is the co-king.
His status is equal to that of the Emperor of Yan. This... What can be said? He indeed has the right to sit on the dragon chair!
"Sigh!" The old ministers were all tangled up and speechless.
The Emperor of Yan, on the other hand, stared at the dragon chair that belonged to him with narrowed eyes.
"Clang!"
The dragon chair landed, raising a cloud of dust.
"Your Highness!" Liu Jin said extremely respectfully.
"Hmm!" Yan Chuan nodded in satisfaction.
With a flip of his robe, Yan Chuan slowly sat down.
One in the south and one in the north. The two dragon chairs faced each other. The Emperor of Yan faced Yan Chuan!
The two people with the highest status in Yan State sat on an equal footing.
The faces of all the crown princes around were a bit strange. But no one said anything more.
With one hand on the Jade Emperor Sword and the other on the armrest of the dragon chair, Yan Chuan closed his eyes slightly and recalled something.
"Yan Chuan, do you want to gamble anymore?"
"Yan Chuan, can you represent Yan State?"
...
The crown princes called out.
Yan Chuan opened his eyes slightly and scanned the people around him. "In Great Yan, I can naturally represent everything of Yan State!"
"Hmm?" The Emperor of Yan frowned and stared at Yan Chuan firmly.
But after a while, the Emperor of Yan's frown relaxed. The previous insults from the crown princes had a great impact on the Emperor of Yan.
Seeing that the Emperor of Yan didn't object, the crown princes immediately showed joy on their faces.
"Good, since that's the case, let's start!" The crown prince of Chu State said excitedly.
But Yan Chuan didn't look at him at all. Instead, he said faintly, "Huo Guang!"
"I am here!" Huo Guang said.
Subject? Huo Guang is a subject. But that should be the subject of the Emperor of Yan. To Yan Chuan, he should only address himself as'subordinate', 'humble official', or 'lower official'. Addressing himself as'subject' is only for the emperor.
But now, Huo Guang addressed himself as'subject'!
This address of'subject' seemed to indicate something, attracting the surprised gazes of everyone.
Yan Chuan also looked at Huo Guang. He stared at Huo Guang for a while.
In the end, Yan Chuan didn't object. Instead, he showed a relieved smile.
On the other hand, the Emperor of Yan didn't feel so good in his heart. However, Yan Chuan's status was equal to his own. At this moment, people from other countries were present, and the Emperor of Yan didn't object either.
Only the old ministers were all tangled up and didn't know what to say.
"Go and challenge the powerful people of Zheng State. According to the previous rules, one gambling duel is for twenty cities!" Yan Chuan said faintly.
"I obey the order!" Huo Guang responded.
Huo Guang walked to the center of the arena and slammed the root of his Heaven-breaking Spear into the ground.
The stone slabs cracked everywhere.
"Who from Zheng State dares to fight!" Huo Guang shouted loudly.
...
In the palace of the crown prince in Yanjing.
"No, it's not good, Your Highness!" A guard called out again.
"Come in!" Yan Wudi said in a deep voice.
The guard rushed into the hall and immediately said, "Your Highness, just now five hundred people came and took away the dragon chair from the court!"
"Five hundred people? Bastard. What about the palace guards?" Yan Wudi frowned.
"Can't stop them. They simply can't stop them. The combat power of those five hundred people is too strong. No, just a hundred people repelled a thousand guards!" The guard said with a ugly expression on his face.
"What?"
"Oh, by the way, they said they were following the order of the co-king. But the Guards of the Emperor couldn't be so powerful! The guard didn't believe it.
"Yan Chuan?" The King of Solitary Swords was surprised.
"Teacher, it should be Uncle Wang without a doubt!" Yan Wudi said.
"That kid does have some tricks. Let's go and take a look!" The King of Solitary Swords said with a smile.
With a wave of his hand, he took Yan Wudi and immediately rushed out of the crown prince's palace and soared into the sky, disappearing among the clouds in an instant.
"Ah!" All the guards in the crown prince's palace exclaimed as they looked at the sky.
Flying into the clouds and overlooking the entire Yanjing.
"It's at the drill ground!" Yan Wudi immediately saw Yan Chuan and his group.
Standing high in the sky, Yan Wudi stared firmly at the drill ground below. While the King of Solitary Swords narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance.
In the distance, on a white cloud, there were two figures standing at this moment.
They were the prime minister of Yan State, Chang Qing, and a woman wearing a bamboo hat.
"Miss, the young man sitting on the dragon chair below is Yan Chuan!" Chang Qing explained.
"Hmm!" The woman nodded. Then, as if sensing something, she looked into the distance.
The King of Solitary Swords and the woman looked at each other. In the end, neither of them paid any attention to the other.
They all looked down.
Liu Gang didn't respond, but the crown prince of Chu State called out first.
"I, Chu State, will go first for this battle!" The crown prince of Chu State called out.
"Respected Zhang, you have just joined our Chu State. This first battle is yours!" The crown prince of Chu State said to the former respected person of Yan State who had just defected.
"Yes!" That respected person stepped onto the dueling arena with a solemn expression.
Because Respected Zhang had seen Huo Guang break through previously. However, he was confident that he had more experience, so he accepted the challenge calmly.
As soon as Respected Zhang came out, Yan Chuan recognized him. In the feng shui formation in the past, this person was following behind Yan Wudi. Originally a respected person of Yan State, he actually defected to Chu State? Treason?
Yan Chuan's eyes turned cold!
"Huo Guang!" Yan Chuan said faintly.
"I am here!" Huo Guang respectfully looked at Yan Chuan.
All the crown princes around looked at Yan Chuan in confusion.
"Permission to kill!" Yan Chuan said with extreme emphasis.
"Yes!" Huo Guang said excitedly.
The faces of all the crown princes froze.
"Hmph, boastful. Kill? We'll see who kills who!" The crown prince of Chu State said angrily.
