Chapter 768
Chapter 0768: Yuan Qinqiong, Jiang Shangyue
Prince You Yang was currently standing in the center position .
Everyone took the news badly, Prince You Yang himself included .
Prince You Yang was well-proportioned, and not as burly as Prince You Yan . He had a more imperial air about him . His every move, and the look in his eyes, were filled with a strict reserve . Right now, his face was much more normal than the others, despite his bad mood . He had not let his anger slip . It was often such people who had a deeper level to them .
Beside him was Prince You Ying . This prince was much skinnier, more like a youth . But he had hard eyes, and a brisk roughness to his movements . He was a born killer, and a reticent character .
As for Princess You Yu and Princess You Xuan, they were the elder sisters of Princess You Xuan . They were already married, and looked similar to Princess You Xue . However, they were a little more mature in their graces . One of them was fiery and pa.s.sionate, and the other aloof and elegant . They had contrasting personalities .
"I think no one expected Wu Yu to undergo a transformation in a few brief months . Right now, the number of Dead Souls Nets he has might have already secured first place for him . The elders have also said that right now, only we can stop him . Our mission is to - under the caveat of not breaking the Dark North Battle for Supremacy"s rules too badly - send Wu Yu out of the Ghosts Sea Prison in this last month," Prince You Yang said .
What he spoke of was no serious violation, and not a complete adherence to the rules .
"Everyone knows what the consequences will be if Wu Yu ends up in first place . The thousand of us will be done for . Right now, the entire Dark North Kingdom is panicking . I feel that even if we seriously break the rules, that"s still better than letting Wu Yu take first place," Prince You Yan said morosely .
"The key is that you even tried the Dark North Soul Lock Spirit Design, and it was useless . Although we have the numbers, everyone knows Wu Yu"s ability to flee . Therefore, chasing him out or killing him is all well and good, but more importantly, how are we going to do it?!" Princess You Yu said with a hateful face, arms folded .
At this time, everyone was very serious .
Prince You Yang said, "If anybody has any ideas, speak freely . We will all work on any problems together . All of us are members of the Dark North Tribe . Something that we must accomplish has landed on our shoulders . No matter how serious the rule-breaking, any idea can be raised . We can discuss whether it can be tried . "
His thoughts mirrored the thoughts of the 800,000 outside .
Having established this, everyone had more room to work with .
However, even if they had many ideas and could use many things similar to the Dark North Soul Lock Talisman, that had already been tried and proven ineffective against Wu Yu .
"Let"s keep thinking . "
Everyone began to brainstorm and throw out their ideas .
Prince You Yang heard a few, and shook his head . "He was actually able to even escape the Dark North Soul Lock Spirit Design . These methods that you speak of are useless . It has to be something that can stop him from escaping . "
He was asking because he himself had no good ideas .
Right now, everyone was troubled .
Prince You Yan said, "Stop all these useless ideas . They"re completely useless . Multiple layers of ploys are also useless . If these could have finished him, I would have finished him long ago . "
He was despairing right now, and everyone knew that he was not one to give up easily . Which was why the mood was even more troubled now .
"I don"t believe that all of us together cannot finish him off . A barbarian from the Dong Sheng Divine Continent . " The one who spoke now was called Gu Haochen . He was a handsome young man with a sharp gleam in his eyes . His s.h.i.+ne was no less bright than that of the royalty in his company . Gu Haochen was the son of Duke Gu, the only duke with a foreign name . Duke Gu was quite a legend in the Dark North Kingdom . His ability was unparalleled - he was much stronger than You Shang and You s.h.i.+, and one of the main pillars of strength for the Dark Sea Emperor . It was said that he had grown up with the Dark Sea Emperor, and they called each other brothers . Therefore, Gu Haochen"s status was not that different from royalty . In terms of ability, he had been personally groomed by Duke Gu, and so was on their level as well . Usually, Gu Haochen interacted with the princes and princesses . He had another ident.i.ty, which was the emperor"s son-in-law . Princess You Yu was his dao companion .
Their union was the wish of both Duke Gu and the Dark Sea Emperor, and was one that the Dark Sea Emperor was fairly satisfied with . After the two became dao companions, they helped each other and progressed quickly . They were one of the most legendary pairs in the Dark North Kingdom .
Besides Gu Haochen, there were two others whose words also carried weight . Both were girls, and important ones at that . One was the dao companion of Prince You Yang, the other the dao companion of Prince You Yan .
Prince You Yang"s dao companion was called Yuan Qinqiong . Before she had joined with Prince You Yang, her name was already well known . This was because her mentor, Yuan Bingye, was the foremost expert outside of the Dark North Kingdom"s system . All the experts generally worked within the kingdom, but there were also some who had no interest in such positions . They valued freedom and chafed at restrictions . They did not partic.i.p.ate in the governance of the country, and would only act when the nation was in danger . There were quite a few such characters, and they were called roaming cultivators . The Dark North Kingdom did not have many roaming cultivators, and Yuan Bingye was a legend amongst them . She was the foremost roaming cultivator of the Dark North Kingdom, and someone near immortalhood, just like Duke Gu . It was said that the Dark North royal family had invited Yuan Bingye many times to take up a station of responsibility, but she had turned them down .
However, as a gesture of respect, her only disciple, Yuan Qinqiong, had wedded Prince You Yang . Yuan Qinqiong was a warm and beautiful girl, pet.i.te, with a strength in her softness . She was also a strength for Prince You Yang .
There was another, called Jiang Shangyue, who was a sharp contrast to Yuan Qinqiong"s warmth . She had an aura of valiant formidability to her . Clad in black armor, her severe expression and keen eyes had the image of a killer, despite her gender . Clearly a woman who was hard to deal with .
She was actually from the Dark Sea Army, and was the most famous dark north general in the Dark Sea Army . She was much more famous than Duan Yi . And her birth station was high as well .
Jiang Shangyue was the dao companion of Prince You Yan . Just like Yuan Qinqiong, she was one of the finest girls in the Dark North Kingdom under the age of 100 . Save the Dark North Kingdom’s princesses, they were the finest . Jiang Shangyue was born in the north of the Dark North Kingdom, while Yuan Qinqiong was born in the south . Therefore, they were respectively hailed as the foremost beauties of the north and south .
Of course, this could never be mentioned in front of the princesses .
That these two had caught the eye of the princes meant that they were truly outstanding, and could match the princes . This also meant that there was a high standard for Princess You Xue"s own dao companion, because her elder siblings" dao companions had set the bar high .
However, they were currently engaged in heated discussion, their faces flushed as they plotted .
"That won"t do . We can"t hold Wu Yu at all that way . Do you actually think that thing is stronger than the Dark North Soul Lock Spirit Design?" Prince You Yan sneered at another .
The other person"s temper flared as he retorted, "Perhaps you did not use it correctly because you were too nervous?"
"f.u.c.k off . "
In truth, they were not afraid that their methods would violate the rules . They did not care about that at all . But the problem was that there was no method at all . Because the crux of the problem was how they would hold Wu Yu in place .
"What a joke . We"re having a meaningless discussion here, and he"s out there acc.u.mulating Dead Souls Nets . He might truly be first right now . Everyone outside can see it clearly . We"re probably the fools in their eyes . " Jiang Shangyue was extremely unhappy . So many people gathered were here, unable to deal with a barbarian from the Demon Sealing Continent .
Finally, everyone lapsed into brooding silence .
The princes and princesses were frowning as well, looking at each other .
"You Xue is to blame for that Wu Yu brat . If she hadn’t brought that brat to the Dark North Kingdom and sheltered him, we would not be dealing with such a big problem . Your sister was always an unruly one, and this time around she"s truly to blame!" Jiang Shangyue said spitefully .
Suddenly, Yuan Qinqiong"s face changed . She said softly, "This means that if Princess You Xue cares deeply for Wu Yu, then Wu Yu must probably also care deeply for Princess You Xue . Perhaps there is something between the two . After all, they are a young man and woman, and raging with hormones . A spark on dry tinder, two people on the Taigu Immortal Path journeying together . . . "
Hearing this, Prince You Yang"s expression turned ugly . He looked at his own dao companion . "You mean to use my sister to control Wu Yu? Those outside see everything that we do, and my little sister is also part of the royal family . Can she be sacrificed?" Prince You Yang was unhappy .
Yuan Qinqiong was not angry . She smiled mildly . "I"m just raising a possibility . If you"re not willing, forget it . And you"ve over thought it . It"s just a way to attract Wu Yu, and force him to stay . We"re not sacrificing her . "
At these words, Prince You Yan clapped . "This might actually be a brainwave . Our younger sister is the key to it . Only she can control Wu Yu in the entire Ghost Sea Prison! And we definitely have a way to deceive Wu Yu, and yet not sacrifice my sister . Otherwise, the royal family elders will not forgive us, right?"
