306 Laying a Big Trap
In the beginning, Feng Xia did not think of this.
The Seventh Prince had borne the infamy for many years. Regarding those memories that were filled with humiliation, he only glanced through them and did not really enter them to experience a different kind of life.
However, at this moment, a part of the Seventh Prince’s memory seemed to get triggered.
Immediately after, more unbearable memories from that competition surged into his mind like a tide.
“… As expected.”
After a long silence, Feng Xia said solemnly.
In the Seventh Prince’s memory, the so-called cheating incident happened when he suddenly lost control of his magical power, as if he was being controlled by another person. At the same time, an extremely ordinary secret treasure which he had on him suddenly erupted with earth-shattering power!
The competition battle at that time specified the level of magic weapon that could be used. Moreover, it was carefully checked to ensure that the competition was fair and just.
After all, regardless of whether it was the Xuantian Sect or Lingyun Kingdom, both sides were strong existences with deep foundations. As long as they were willing to pay the price, even a minor Inception Realm cultivator could be equipped with a full set of Divine Bridge Realm treasures!
Given that it was a friendly competition for exchange purposes between the Xuantian Sect and Lingyun Kingdom, if the competitors went all out, the original intent of this competition would be lost.
In the end, even the Seventh Prince did not expect…
The Heart Protection Mirror he was carrying, which was just an ordinary Dharma Characteristic Realm treasure, exploded with power comparable to peak True Spirit Realm at that moment!
In the eyes of outsiders, this scene was undoubtedly proof that he had cheated by carrying a high-level magic weapon and even tried to kill his opponent.
It was precisely because of this that the judge from the Xuantian Sect was so furious.
“It’s just a friendly competition, but you want to kill the disciples of the Xuantian Sect. Do you really look down on the Xuantian Sect?”
After that incident, the relationship between the two factions deteriorated very quickly.
Until today, although the two sides were not considered enemies, they basically did not interact with each other anymore. Occasionally, there would even be occurrences of small-scale conflicts.
It could be said that the source of the deterioration of the relationship between the two factions could be traced back to the competition back then.
All the pain that the Seventh Prince had experienced also originated from there.
“You didn’t… cheat at the time?”
The green-haired woman opened her mouth in disbelief. “This… This is impossible, right?”
If Feng Xia could move his body, he would have glared at her by now. “What do you mean impossible? Do you know who my opponent from the Xuantian Sect is? That’s my wife’s older brother, my brother-in-law! What do you think is wrong with me? That I would force myself to cheat in that kind of situation so that I can kill my own brother-in-law?”
The green-haired woman was at a loss for words and stopped talking.
Ming Youjun was also dumbfounded.
The Seventh Prince had been unconscious for more than 20 years. The relationship between the Xuantian Sect and Lingyun Kingdom was so cold that it had dropped to the freezing point over the years. In addition, the imperial family had suppressed this matter as if it was a scandal. Therefore, almost no one had heard the inside story!
At this moment, when Feng Xia brought up the Seventh Prince’s past, he immediately recalled many things. The more he thought about it, the more deeply terrified he felt!
“This… this, this, this…”
“Other than this, what else did the Third Prince ask you to do?”
“The Third Prince even reminded me…”
As the saying went, one thing would lead to another.
It was said that a small leak could sink a great ship. Ming Youjun no longer had any psychological burden. He thought carefully for a moment and simply related everything he knew in detail.
“That’s all I can remember.”
After the time it took to burn an incense stick, Ming Youjun related everything honestly.
He knelt on the ground without moving or making any sound.
In fact, this principal of Ming Kong Academy knew very well that the moment he revealed these secrets, the Third Prince would no longer have any place for him. Even if he escaped Feng Xia’s clutches, he would definitely die when he returned.
“Tell me again, what is the Third Prince’s cultivation level? What techniques does he cultivate? What forms of combat is he good at…”
Ming Youjun continued to explain in detail.
…
Before Ming Youjun left, the green-haired woman forced him to write two promissory notes, listing a total of 150 million catties of precious stones.
After that, the dignified principal of Ming Kong Academy fled.
It was true that he could not return to the Third Prince, but he did not want to stay any longer at Feng Xia’s place either.
As for the promissory notes for 150 million catties of precious stones, it really made his heart ache so much that he was about to vomit blood. However, in order to avoid this existence that was even more terrifying than “Jiang Shinian”, he still signed it in the end.
“You have something else to say, don’t you?”
After Ming Youjun left, the green-haired woman suddenly turned her head and stared at the Seventh Prince without moving.
Feng Xia was slightly stunned.
At this moment, he suddenly had a strange feeling.
It was as if the other party was not looking at the Seventh Prince, but at the soul that belonged to Feng Xia through the Seventh Prince’s body!
“Why do I have this strange feeling?” Feng Xia hesitated for a moment before saying with a smile, “I’ve already said what I wanted to say. What else do you want me to say?”
“You’re not the Seventh Prince, right?”
The green-haired woman suddenly asked.
Feng Xia was silent for a moment as thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind. He then said, “What about you? Who are you? I don’t remember ever owing you precious stones.”
In Feng Xia’s eyes, this woman was a complete mystery!
Where did she come from, and where was she going?
“I… I don’t remember!”
The woman’s eyes flickered and she began to stammer. But after a few breaths, she became self-righteous again. “Anyway, you definitely owe me precious stones! Oh right, now it’s Ming Youjun who owes me!”
“Then are you free now?” Feng Xia smiled again.
“As for me… I’m free…”
The woman played with her curly hair and stared at Feng Xia warily. “What are you up to now?”
Strangely enough, she only questioned Feng Xia’s identity and did not really intend to pursue the matter.
“I’m weak and sickly, so it’s difficult for me to move…”
“Bah!”
“All in all, I need you to put on a show with me.”
Three days later.
Finally, there were divine beings exploring the tomb of the Feng Clan God of War who broke through the restrictions on the outside and opened up a passageway to the inside of the tomb. There, guardian puppets had appeared and informed everyone about the rules of the inner layer of the tomb.
“My master has three inheritances, all of which are supreme techniques.”
“The first is the Enlightenment Art. Those who cultivate this will have clear minds and see the world clearly. They no longer have to worry about inner demons.”
“The second is…”
Almost half a day later, someone noticed a soul-stirring aura erupting from the Third Prince’s residence!
