Behind Xiao Jian stood an old monk in a blue robe, holding prayer beads in his left hand, his eyes slightly closed, and his mouth moving slightly, as if he was chanting scriptures!
Suddenly, the old monk opened his eyes and slowly said, “They have arrived”
As soon as he finished speaking, a soldier in armor rushed in and said, “Your Majesty, Elder Chu of the Demon Sealing Alliance has arrived!”
Xiao Jian nodded, then escorted the old monk out of the room!
Inside the hall, Elder Chu was waiting with two cultivators from the Demon Sealing Alliance. After seeing Xiao Jian, Elder Chu smiled faintly and said, “Prince Xiao, I came here especially to congratulate you.”
“Congratulate me?” Xiao Jian was taken aback, somewhat confused!
“Emperor Xiao has decreed that your brother, Xiao Feng, will be the Crown Prince, and has also handed over the Tiger List. Your brother can now command the entire army of the Xiao Dynasty, including Canglang City where you are now.”
“Your father obviously did this to guard against you. Therefore, Prince Xiao, you don’t need to endure it any longer. Cooperate with our Demon Sealing Alliance and overthrow your father at once. After that, you can sit on the throne of the Xiao Dynasty.”
Elder Chu said it directly!
“You came here to sow discord between my father and me. Aren’t you afraid that I will arrest you and hand you over to the Emperor for punishment?”
Xiao Jian looked at Elder Chu and asked!
“Hahaha, of course I’m not afraid, because I know you won’t do that. If you are loyal to your father, then why are you secretly training Deadpool?”
“If I’m not mistaken, Prince Xiao probably has hundreds of assassins under his command, many of whom are experts in the Mahayana Realm.”
Elder Chu laughed heartily as he spoke!
Xiao Jian frowned, his expression turning somewhat grim, and asked, “How do you know all this?”
“Your Majesty, there’s no need to ask any more questions. I naturally have my own channels for obtaining information.”
“All you need to consider is whether you want to cooperate with our Demon Sealing Alliance or not”
Elder Chu said calmly.
“Let me think about it first!” Xiao Jian frowned, unable to make up his mind for a moment!
“Alright, I will give Prince Xiao one day to consider. This is your last chance, so I hope you know how precious this opportunity is!”
After Elder Chu finished speaking, he left with his men!
Xiao Jian then turned to the old monk beside him and asked, “Master, what do you think I should do?”
The old monk smiled faintly: “Your Majesty, you already have the answer in your heart, why ask this old monk again?”
Hearing that, Xiao Jian smiled faintly, turned around, and walked out of the hall!
