C322 Recruitment Negotiation Assassination
Therefore, these four were called the Four Great Martial Kings. They were the Fierce Martial King, the Brave Martial King, Cold Martial King, and the Brave Martial King. Each of them possessed terrifying strength, and their subordinates were even more powerful. They were able to influence the situation of the empire!
Among them, the Brave Martial King was Ye Martial God's grandfather, and Cold Martial King had the closest relationship with the Crown Prince. Because Cold Martial King's daughter was the Crown Prince's consort, he was called the Crown Prince's father-in-law, the future ruler of the empire!
Now that Cold Martial King had sent someone to invite Ji Chen, the barrier behind the matter had been opened. However, Cold Martial King was the one who helped the Crown Prince, and most of the people present were from the Guardian Faction. In a sense, they were supporting the Crown Prince.
If the person who came today was from the Empress, then they definitely wouldn't give him a good face. But since it was Cold Martial King who came, then they didn't want to stop him.
Ji Chen chuckled. He actually did not care. He stood up and patted the dust off his body. "Let's go. This classmate banquet is very enjoyable. Now, let's go to Cold Martial King's palace and drink some tea to moisten our throats!"
"Domineering Body, please go ahead." Mr. Xu bowed slightly and brought Ji Chen to the shore. There was a crystal-clear carriage parked there. It gave off a cold taste, but it was warm and warm.
The one pulling the carriage was an ice beast with the strength of a Divine Martial Stage. Ji Chen stepped onto the carriage and waved at the ship on the Qin River. After saying that, Mister Xu left, and the carriage soared into the sky.
As a Martial King, he had the right to fly around the Imperial City, and he also had the right to let his subordinates fly around the Imperial City. He had gained countless respect and satisfaction!
"It seems like Cold Martial King wants to recruit Ji Chen!" Ninth Prince said.
"Of course! If Ye Martial God wasn't the grandson of the brave Martial King, Cold Martial King would definitely recruit him!" The Seventh Princess was very wise, "I just don't know if he will succeed or not."
" Recruit? Success?" Ye Martial God's face was full of disdain, "Golden Tyrant Body Venerable, unparalleled throughout the ages! I'm afraid today's recruitment will collapse!"
While they were talking, Ji Chen had already arrived at Cold Martial King's mansion. Although it was a mansion, it exuded a boundless aura of nobility and dignity. It wasn't much different from the palace.
Mister Xu brought Ji Chen all the way to the backyard. Under the shadows, Ji Chen saw Cold Martial King.
It was a man who looked to be in his forties. He had a dignified and cold expression. He was wearing a long robe with a silver Roc embroidered on it. He was drinking tea by himself. He didn't even raise his head when Ji Chen came.
Ji Chen didn't need him to say anything. He sat down on the stone bench opposite him and casually picked up the teapot. He poured himself a cup and began drinking.
This scared Mister Xu half to death, and his entire body was covered in sweat. This was Great Qin's famous cold-hearted Cold Martial King, and even the Imperial Court's Princes would tremble in fear when they saw him!
Long Zi and Feng Sun could only stand, but Ji Chen had sat down as soon as he arrived, and he had even started to leisurely drink tea. It had to be said that he was simply too bold.
"You're very bold." Finally, Cold Martial King spoke, "Yesterday, the Crown Prince was also at your seat, but I didn't say anything. He just stood by the side and waited for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn."
"Oh, is that so? Is that why you invited me here?" Ji Chen drank the tea in his cup and said in a comfortable manner, "The tea is not bad. It should be the best tribute, but the atmosphere of drinking tea isn't very good."
Mr. Xu, who was standing by the side, was almost drenched in cold sweat. He kept transmitting his voice to Ji Chen, telling him to be honest and apologize to him as soon as possible.
However, Ji Chen was still calm and did what he wanted. He went to pour a second cup of tea. He was sneering in his heart. Old thief, you want to scare me? You don't have a brain, do you? You want to put on airs in front of me? Who do you think you are?
Cold Martial King was very unhappy in his heart, but he was still a big shot. His mind was gloomy and did not explode immediately. "I heard that the Golden Tyrant Body is very smart. You should know why I called you here today."
"You want to recruit me, right?"
Ji Chen laughed in his heart. This guy actually used the word "summon" as if he was his servant. This made Ji Chen very unhappy. What the hell was this?!
"That's right." Cold Martial King nodded. "Now, there is a great opportunity in front of you. You have to submit to the Crown Prince and serve me. In the future, you will be successful and limitless!"
Cold Martial King threw a big pie at Ji Chen. "When the Crown Prince ascends the throne, I can guarantee that you will become the fifth Venerable Martial King of Great Qin, and you will enjoy the supreme glory of being below ten thousand people!"
"Oh? Is that so? I'm afraid it's not that simple!" Ji Chen coldly smiled, and his starry eyes seemed to be able to see through someone's heart. "Your Highness must have a request!"
"Of course, but it's very simple for you!" The corner of Cold Martial King's mouth curled up into a cold smile. "I need you to sweep away all obstructions for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
"First of all, we need to pull all the disciples of Qin Academy into His Highness's camp! And Third Duke and Third Gu, I think with your influence, you can make them make the best choice! "
"As for the Empress's side, we must slowly plan for it. In the end, this Great Qin is not hers, the Martial Palace! I will give you sufficient support and support!"
Cold Martial King sipped his tea. "However, I am a cautious person, so I have to leave a small mark on you! Take this pill and tomorrow, this king will ask His Highness to confer you with the imperial court's Military Marquis!"
Ji Chen nodded his head and picked up the pill with two fingers. He sniffed it under his nose and said, "Good stuff. Unfortunately, there is a Blood Silkworm Gu in it. Swallowing it and life and death will be in your hands."
"When the Crown Prince ascends the throne, I will remove the Gu for you."
Cold Martial King's eyes focused. He felt pressured. "What do you think? Are you going to eat it or not? With the Golden Tyrant Body's intelligence, it should be able to make a wise choice!"
"Of course." Ji Chen flicked his finger and the pill flew into the ditch in the distance. "The choice is very clear! Mm, thank you for your hospitality, Your Royal Highness. The tea is not bad. "
Ji Chen laughed. With his hands behind his back, he walked forward in a pace that did not recognize his family. He rampaged out of the backyard and out of the prince's mansion. It was obvious that the negotiation had failed!
"You ungrateful b * stard!" Cold Martial King was very angry in his heart. A cold aura was emitted from his body. The entire backyard was covered with a layer of ice. "You have chosen a path of death for yourself!"
Mr. Xu asked respectfully, "Your Royal Highness, what should we do?"
"This kind of proud son of heaven will always be a scourge if he is kept alive. The threat is too great! Humph, if he is not used by me, he must be killed by me! Let the Cold Crow take action. It will be strange and unpredictable."
Cold Martial King said slowly, his entire person like a bottomless cold pond. "After all, those old fellows of the Three Duke and Three Lonely are not so easy to fool!"
"Understood." Mister Xu nodded his head in a humble manner, and only straightened his back after he had retreated more than a hundred feet. A trace of killing intent bloomed like a blade, "By His Royal Highness' decree, kill without mercy!"
"Hmm? So simple, so smooth? This old fool Cold Martial King made me leave the Imperial Residence so easily? Something's not right, there must be something strange going on here!"
Ji Chen was strolling on the street outside. Suddenly, he smiled as if he had just realized something. "I know. This Cold Martial King must be a germaphobic old turtle!"
"He was afraid that I would die in his mansion. It would be too troublesome to clean the place after being stained with blood! Moreover, the relationship I have with him will be even more troublesome. You have to know that I'm Great Qin's number one genius!"
"If something happens to me, the entire court will be shaken. Just the Three Dukes and Three Lonely won't let him go, and the Empress faction will definitely kick him while he's down. At that time, even he won't be able to take it!"
"However, if I die outside, it'll be different. With Cold Martial King's strength, he'll definitely be able to wipe out this matter!"
Thinking of this, Ji Chen started to wander outside with all his might, walking towards places with more people. He even passed by the residences of a few important officials of the Imperial Court. "How is it? This young master is cooperative enough, right?"
"This time, many people have seen that I have already come out of the Imperial Residence. I can get rid of my relationship with Cold Martial King! The prerequisite for killing me is already ripe. Hehe, let me create another perfect opportunity for you in the end! "
Ji Chen walked towards a sparsely populated place. The further he went, the fewer people he saw before him. Finally, he arrived at the bottom of a willow tree. This was the branch of the Qin River, and no one had ever come close to it in the past.
"Haha, the water is clear and shallow, and the moonlight is drifting in the evening sky!" Ji Chen stood under the willow tree and looked at the night sky. "Beautiful people, beautiful scenery, it is indeed suitable to be a burial ground. You guys should make your move now!"
Just as Ji Chen thought this, a wisp of black smoke burst out from the willow tree beside him. A cold light burst out from the smoke and pierced towards the back of Ji Chen's head.
"Interesting, Soul Locking Spike! It's actually a weapon that specializes in dealing with Imperial Martial warriors. Cold Martial King is really rich!"
Ji Chen could clearly see that the cold light was a foot-long thorn. It was carved with magical symbols and a dark red blood light. This was a Soul Locking Spike that could lock a person's essence, energy, and spirit!
Once the spike hit the target, there was no way for the Imperial Martial Dharma to escape. It could kill the main body and Dharma Idol with a single strike. It was extremely bloody and ruthless, and it was a must-have item to kill people to silence them!
"What a pity! You underestimate me! My cultivation base is too weak!"
Ji Chen lightly stepped forward and quickly retreated in the midst of the green willow. His speed was so fast that it could be said to be as fast as lightning. The cold light could not catch up to him at all. It seemed like the assassin was under a lot of pressure as well.
"There is a flaw!"
Ji Chen retreated a hundred miles. Suddenly, he stretched out a hand and flicked his finger. Golden light shot out and collided with the Soul Locking Spike more than ten times. A powerful vibration erupted and the Soul Locking Spike could no longer be held in his hand.
Ji Chen grabbed the Soul Locking Spike and stabbed it into the thick smoke. With a muffled groan, blood spurted out like a pillar. Ji Chen felt a struggle, but it was useless.
The thick black smoke dispersed and revealed a black-clothed assassin. He was wearing a crow mask, and his heart had been accurately pierced by Ji Chen. He didn't even have the chance to escape from the Transcendence.
He fell in front of Ji Chen just like that and died. He really died before he even got out of the fight. Ji Chen couldn't help but mourn for these assassins who came to assassinate him for three seconds.
