Volume 1 Chapter 723 Birthday Greetings
"Of course I know. I just want to ask the Third Prince for a favor." The smile on Kong Yun"s face did not diminish as he stared at Xuanyuan Feng.
Xuanyuan Feng was a little scared by Kong Yun"s gaze. "Don"t look at me like that. What are you saying? Don"t let me take the blame for you, right?" Xuanyuan Feng"s eyes were wide open.
"As expected of a prince, he is smart." Kong Yun smiled.
"Sure, I have a condition. Let"s share it. How about it?" Xuanyuan Feng had also made up his mind about Kong Yun. Kong Yun nodded and said, "No problem. Take this as a reward."
Xuanyuan Feng did not expect Kong Yun to agree so easily and laughed. "Actually, even if you don"t tell me, I still plan to share it with you. You know that sooner or later, I will be someone who leaves this place. This cultivation technique doesn"t have that much meaning for me anymore. After giving it to you, my heart will feel much more at ease. If I give it to someone who isn"t on the right track, it will be a disaster for this world."
At this time, Kong Yun was still thinking of the world.
"Aren"t you afraid of me?" Kong Yun interrupted Xuanyuan Feng. "No, I can feel that you are a wise king."
Xuanyuan Feng was moved by this inexplicable trust. He knew that Kong Yun"s words were sincere.
"Tomorrow is the birthday of the Ximen Clan"s Clan Master. They sent you an invitation to celebrate your birthday." Xuanyuan Feng handed Kong Yun a bright red invitation card. Kong Yun took it over and casually looked at it, not caring about it.
"To thank me?" Kong Yun glanced at Xuanyuan Feng, wanting to hear what Xuanyuan Feng said.
"On the one hand, and on the other hand, you are someone beside me. You want to rope me in." To Xuanyuan Feng, all of these old fellows knew what they were thinking. Kong Yun nodded.
"But if you go, there will be many dangers. Even if you give me the Spectral Steps, the Dongfang Clan will not let you off." Xuanyuan Feng still expressed his worries.
"I know, but I can"t hide in His Highness" mansion forever, right?" Kong Yun had already made up his mind.
After Xuanyuan Feng heard this, he did not say anything else. Just as Xuanyuan Feng was about to leave, Kong Yun gave the Spectral Steps to Xuanyuan Feng. Xuanyuan Feng"s hand trembled, and he knew how important this technique was.
This scene did not escape the eyes hidden in the darkness.
First Prince"s Mansion
A young man was sitting on the main seat, leisurely reading the book in his hand. His movements were extremely graceful and his expression was extremely enjoyable. This was the number one genius of the main city, Xuanyuan Fei. This was also the most powerful candidate for the throne.
"Your Highness, there is news that Kong Yun has given the Spectral Steps to His Highness the Third Prince." The guard stood respectfully below.
"I"ve already predicted it. Otherwise, why would he be living there?" The eldest prince waved his hand and the guard respectfully retreated.
"Third Brother, you"re digging your own grave." After saying that, the eldest prince continued to read.
This scene was played out in the four great clans at the same time. Only the Third Prince"s mansion was very quiet and did not make any arrangements for these things. Everyone in the mansion knew that this was just the peace before the storm.
The next day, Kong Yun got up early, tidied up, and prepared to pay his respects.
Just as Kong Yun arrived at the door, a maid walked over. "Mr. Kong, His Highness invites you to the Ximen Clan." Kong Yun nodded and walked towards Xuanyuan Feng"s room.
Not long after, a delicate child was carried by a few people, surrounded by guards, and walked out of the Third Prince"s mansion.
Not long after they left the gate, they saw a few people fighting on the road, filling up the road and making it impossible for them to get there.
"What are you doing? Don"t you know that this is the Third Prince"s team? You still dare to stop us here? Quickly get out of the way." A few guards stepped forward to clear the way, but as soon as they arrived in front of those people, those people took out their knives and killed them.
"Escort, protect the prince." The guards reacted very quickly and immediately surrounded the prince in the middle. However, those people still ignored life and death and quickly rushed towards Xuanyuan Feng. Xuanyuan Feng was not afraid at all as he quietly fanned his fan inside the little girl.
Kong Yun originally wanted to go down to help, but upon seeing Xuanyuan Feng"s expression, he sat down quietly.
"Did you know that my mansion is also under attack?" Xuanyuan Feng said calmly.
"Then what about you?" Kong Yun was puzzled. "This is the Emperor"s Art. Only then can I know who is loyal to me and who is a traitor."
"Let"s make a scene. The bigger the scene, the more advantageous it will be to me." Xuanyuan Feng muttered to himself. Kong Yun instantly understood. The people from the royal family were ruthless. There was really nothing to say.
At this moment, Kong Yun secretly left Xuanyuan Feng"s delicate son and rushed towards Xuanyuan Feng"s mansion.
In the following period of time, Xuanyuan Feng suffered several waves of attacks, but none of them approached Xuanyuan Feng"s Jiaozi, who was not damaged at all.
At this moment, the big fellow came and an old man came. If Kong Yun was here, he would feel the old man"s aura was very familiar.
The old man should be a famous expert. He was afraid that others would know his ident.i.ty, so he put on a mask and glanced at Jiao Zi. Without hesitation, he rushed straight at Jiao Zi. Xuanyuan Feng"s face wrinkled, but he had no intention of escaping.
At this moment, a silhouette quietly flew over. "How dare you a.s.sa.s.sinate me in the main city? I really don"t want to live anymore. Someone, capture all of these people." This was the general of the Guard Corps, Xuanyuan Yun. He was also Xuanyuan Feng"s second uncle.
Xuanyuan Yun did not hesitate and rushed straight towards the old man. The old man knew that he had failed this time, so he could only give up the a.s.sa.s.sination and flee. Xuanyuan Yun was afraid that the Third Prince would have an accident, so he did not pursue him deeply. "Your Highness, you are shocked." Xuanyuan Yun immediately stepped down from Jiao Zi and helped Xuanyuan Yun up. "Second Uncle, luckily you arrived in time, I was able to survive."
"Your Highness has his own heavenly appearance, so naturally, these people will not take it away." Seeing his uncle arrive, Xuanyuan Feng was very happy. This meant that the Imperial City"s guards were not in the hands of anyone else.
On the other side, Kong Yun secretly sneaked back to Xuanyuan Feng"s mansion and saw that it was indeed as Xuanyuan Feng had said, a group of black-clothed men were attacking Xuanyuan Feng"s study. Kong Yun quickly changed his appearance and attacked this group of black-clothed men from behind.
Kong Yun punched and punched inside like a life harvester, killing half of the black-clothed men in a few breaths. The flesh in the sky flew everywhere, and blood flowed on the ground. However, Kong Yun"s body was very clean, not a trace of blood stained him.
When the black-clothed man saw this scene, he was instantly stunned and began to flee towards the outside of the mansion. "Kill, Your Highness has an order. You can"t let any of them go."
"Yes." The guards began to chase after these black-clothed men. Just as the black-clothed men fled the manor, they saw a group of soldiers waiting for them outside. They looked at me, I looked at you, "Kill ~"
In an instant, the black-clothed man was killed on the spot. Kong Yun glanced at it, his face expressionless as he turned around and left.
When Kong Yun returned, Xuanyuan Feng"s battle had just ended. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, he flashed onto Xuanyuan Feng"s delicate son and nodded at him. The corners of Xuanyuan Feng"s mouth curled up, and he lost all expression.
Following that, thanks to Xuanyuan Yun"s escort, everything was safe. When they arrived at the Ximen Clan"s mansion, Kong Yun presented his Firefly Flower in the secret realm as a gift, while the Third Prince presented a jade box. He didn"t know what was inside.
After Xuanyuan Feng entered, he began to be courteous with others. Kong Yun couldn"t stand this kind of scene, so he sat in a corner and began to drink. He knew that no one was here to a.s.sa.s.sinate him. This was the Ximen Clan.
A beauty walked over and sat opposite Kong Yun. "This big brother has eyes. I wonder if big brother can introduce me." Kong Yun smiled when he heard this.
"A commoner is not worth mentioning." When the beauty saw that Kong Yun was unwilling to introduce herself, she did not force him to do so.
She actually turned a blind eye to me. Hmph, the beauty"s heart is extremely angry. With her beauty, she is held in her hands everywhere. This b.a.s.t.a.r.d actually ignores me. If I hadn"t seen you get so close to the Third Prince, I wouldn"t have cared about you.
Kong Yun naturally knew what this woman was thinking. At this moment, Kong Yun saw a familiar figure, that was Darknorth Purple. The two of them looked at each other with sparks flying everywhere.
"Kong Yun, I didn"t expect you to come as well. It seems that the Ximen Clan is very grateful to you." Darknorth Purple was still unhappy about the previous incident.
Kong Yun smiled and remained silent, knowing that there would be no good end to bickering with women.
This time, Beiming Zi was also rude. She sat beside Kong Yun. Kong Yun was very surprised, but when he saw the gazes of the men around him, Kong Yun knew why.
"Good plan." Kong Yun was not courteous. He held Beiming Zi in his arms. Since you want to play, let"s play. Kong Yun"s action was not only Beiming Zi, but also the surrounding people were shocked. This was the pride of the heavens. When the Third Prince saw this, he laughed in his heart.
Seeing this, the beautiful woman knew that she would be bored if she continued to stay here, so she turned around and left.
Beiming Zi glared at Kong Yun and said, "Let me go." Kong Yun tightened his hand and looked at Beiming Zi with an expression, "Since you want to play, I will accompany you to the end." After saying that, Kong Yun smiled.
Beiming Zi forcefully broke free from Kong Yun"s embrace, glared fiercely at Kong Yun, and left this place dejectedly.
Several people beside him gave Kong Yun a thumbs up. Kong Yun smiled at them, but there were also a few people who hated Kong Yun. Kong Yun didn"t care about it, and this disturbance was over just like that.
However, after these people understood Kong Yun"s ident.i.ty, they gave up the idea of beating Kong Yun up and decided to dry Kong Yun up on the wine table. As soon as this thought came out, the few of them took the wine bottle and walked to Kong Yun"s table. They placed the wine bottle on the table and said, "Do you dare to come?"
Kong Yun smiled. A woman really could cause trouble. He picked up the cup and the seven of them began to fill it. Kong Yun didn"t refuse to accept any of them. He had the momentum of accepting hundreds of rivers and seas.
