Chapter 2572: Cheating and Unreasonable
The royal family of Huainan did have ulterior motives.

There were constant excited voices in the main hall of the Huainan Palace, and the word "treason" was almost uttered.

The white meat referred to by Dong Zhongshu was a literal description of observation, and the white meat was called Li Qi by the royal family of Huainan.

To the royal family of Huainan, Li Qi meant countless food, and turning stone into gold meant endless money.

As long as they continue to trade with magic gold, countless scarce materials will flow into Huainan.

With such confidence, it is no wonder that Crown Prince Liu Qian is so full of confidence that he is almost impatient and wants to gather troops from all over the world to rush into Chang'an City immediately.

"Don't be impatient, you must stay steady!"

Compared to Liu Qian's impatience, King Huainan was very calm.

"The Empress Dowager has passed away, and Chang'an City is no longer a threat. I also heard that the court lost face during the funeral and was made humiliated by a few vicious sorcerers," Liu Qian said excitedly.

There is a reason why the Huainan Palace stays up all night long.

Who can sleep peacefully when these good things happen?

"We need to wait a while," said the King of Huainan, "The Scarlet Sky Sword in your Majesty's hand is a serious threat!"

"Isn't it just a sword?" Prince Liu Qian said indifferently: "I have heard of the magic of our ancestor's Red Sky Sword. As long as we kill His Majesty with one blow, there will be no chance for him to continue to retreat and become stronger!"

"No, no, no, Qian'er, you don't understand that sword." Huainan King said helplessly: "The danger of the Scarlet Sky Sword is completely unreasonable!"

"How can a sword be unreasonable? No matter how powerful a sword is, it still needs a swordsman to wield it. No matter how powerful a swordsman is, if he can hold a sword, does that mean he is better than Lei Beikeqing's swordsmanship?" Liu Qian said with difficulty.

"If Ru Lei were to encounter the Chi Xiao Sword against a top swordsman like Ke Qing, he would most likely be killed by a simple thrust from the Chi Xiao Sword!" King Huainan shook his head.

"How can this be?"

"This is the unreasonable part of the Scarlet Sky Sword. This sword will not care about how powerful your magic is or how high your cultivation level is. As long as the owner of the Scarlet Sky Sword wants to kill you, you will die with one strike of the sword!"

“That’s outrageous!”

Crown Prince Liu Qian murmured.

The Huainan Palace has endless food and endless money. This kind of foundation can be said to be a cheat.

But Liu Qian didn't expect that the Chang'an court was even more aggressive, which was completely unreasonable.

"Since Your Majesty has already obtained the recognition of the Scarlet Sky Sword, why didn't he use the sword to kill Jiuling Yuansheng and those sorcerers?" Liu Qian asked in confusion.

"He can't use the Scarlet Sky Sword whenever he wants, and he hasn't been forced into such a desperate situation!"

King Huainan pursed his lips.

If the Scarlet Sky Sword could be used infinitely, the cultivators in this world would not have to fight with the owner of the Scarlet Sky Sword.

Even when Emperor Jing was facing a dispute between one emperor and two kings, he only swung out the Chixiao Sword before his death.

The King of Huainan was not afraid that the new emperor would wield the Chixiao Sword and kill anyone. He was afraid that the new emperor would hold the Chixiao Sword for a long time and would jump out and run into the muzzle of the gun.

"Only when Ling'er can solve the problem of the Scarlet Sky Sword in Chang'an City, can father rest assured." Huainan King said: "Qian'er, you should also wait patiently. You must know that our Li Qi has not yet been tested to the end, and our magic gold has not been exchanged to other vassal states and county cities. These all need time to operate in order to obtain the greatest benefit!"

"Father is right!"

Liu Qian's impatient heart finally had to settle down.

"The royal family secretly said that the Scarlet Sky Sword was forged with the divine gold from the falling long star. Now we have a falling long star in Huainan. If we can gain something, even if we can get a treasure that can rival the Scarlet Sky Sword, then the court in Chang'an City will not have to be afraid of it," the King of Huainan sighed.

"We in Huainan have sent out so many people to search for the long star but to no avail. Where did the long star fall?" said Crown Prince Liu Qian.

"My father has checked some ancient books. They mentioned that the place where the long star fell must have a spiritual source. Unfortunately, the records in the ancient books are too scarce." King Huainan said, "It is rumored that the Immortal Court has done a lot of research on the long star, but the people in the Immortal Court have been elusive. It is very difficult to squeeze information out of them!"

"Last time, there was a man who claimed to be an immortal who came to the royal city. His name was something," Liu Qian said.

"Yao Yuanguang," Queen Liaotu, who looked relatively calm, reminded.

"He is a liar," King Huainan shook his head and said, "He can fool other people, but how could he fool me!"

“He…” “His cultivation level is not at the level of the True Self. Even if he is related to the Immortal Court, he is just a peripheral cultivator. It is impossible for him to possess the core secrets of the Immortal Court!”

King Huainan waved his hand, indicating that Yao Yuanguang had some skills, but the other party did not have much skills, not to mention the status of the Immortal Court.

Without sufficient status, whatever Yao Yuanguang said would be trivial. Not only was it difficult for him to narrate core secrets, but the promises he made would also be invalid.

"What a pity, we were still thinking about refining the longevity elixir he mentioned!" said Crown Prince Liu Qian.

"If he had the elixir of longevity, he would have been free long ago. He would not have come to me to fool around. I have failed to make it, so what ability does he have?"

The King of Huainan laughed, indicating that Yao Yuanguang was not important enough and could only fool the Crown Prince Liu Qian.

"Then we can only rely on manpower to search," Liu Qian said anxiously, "or we need to wait for my sister to destroy the Chixiao Sword!"

"Don't worry, everything is fine now!"

King Huainan shook his head.

Although his face looked calm, the King of Huainan also took a deep breath repeatedly to calm the joy in his heart.

Even though the Huainan Palace owned an entire country and possessed countless wealth and resources, he had never obtained such rare items as Li Qi and Shu Jin.

As long as he hoards beans, Li Qi will be the best food, and as long as he hoards minerals, these minerals can be turned into alchemy gold and used as the highest standard of property.

Exchange magic gold for resources, and resources for real gold. By trading back and forth, fake stones can be turned into real gold.

"If searching for Changxing can yield a divine object, Liu Che should abdicate." Liu Qian said excitedly, "Father, the magic gold has stabilized. Why don't I take another group of people to search for Changxing!"

"When the Wu Kingdom started its war, a long star appeared only a few feet tall. They used the long star as a divine object to forge the Wu hook, and fought bloodshed for thousands of miles to gain hegemony. Our Huainan long star almost streaks across the sky. If we can obtain the divine object, the world's wars will flourish. You can bring 500 people... Who?"

The King of Huainan was very satisfied with the initiative of Crown Prince Liu Qian.

He explained the importance of Changxing and was about to arrange for Crown Prince Liu Qian to take action when his ears suddenly twitched and his eyes quickly turned to one place.

Before the King of Huainan could make a move, Tian You, who was stationed in the palace hall, had already raised his sword and struck upward.

The blood-red sword light shot up and broke through the glazed tiles of the hall, also causing a dull humming sound.

"not good!"

The King of Huainan's expression changed.

Tian You's swordsmanship focuses on killing in military formations and he strikes without mercy, but Tian You's strength is still a step short.

King Huainan clearly felt that Tian You's sword hit the opponent's body but did not kill him.

How could the King of Huainan let the other party go after he overheard what happened in the hall?

He rolled up his sleeves and his feet seemed to be stepping on the wind and waves.

The door of the palace hall was swept open, and King Huainan stepped into the hall like a gust of wind.

When looking into the distance, King Huainan felt as if someone was flying away in the night sky.

"go with!"

King Huainan flicked his sleeves, and two swords, one blue and one red, flew out from his sleeves and flew towards the direction he was looking at.

The flying swords flew over two hundred meters and suddenly collided, and green and red light burst out.

"Damn it!"

The green and red swords flew out and caught up with the escaper, instantly unleashing the power of the magic weapon.

King Huainan saw an almost transparent figure in the light being shattered by two swords, and then turned into a purple light and fled away, disappearing into the night sky in an instant.

"It's those sorcerers who come and go without a trace!"

The King of Huainan cursed softly and felt very upset for a moment.

He stretched out his hand and the green and red swords flew back into his hand. Then he stretched out his hand to grab the remaining aura on the two swords and made calculations repeatedly, trying to quickly find the sorcerer's hiding place.
