Douluo Dalu II: The Soul Wishing Tree, Wang Dong is addicted

Mingdu, Prince Zhong’s Palace.

This is the residence of Prince Xu Guozhong, located around the Imperial Palace and Mingde Hall, adjacent to the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy.

Xu Guozhong was originally a prince of the previous dynasty and had the most noble royal blood of the previous dynasty, that is, the black-skinned aristocracy.

A hundred years ago, he recognized the situation, betrayed the previous emperor, and helped the current old emperor seize the country and change the dynasty.

It was for this reason that he was named Prince of the Empire, the only prince. Although he had no military power, he controlled the most important treasure trove of resources in the entire Sun-Moon Empire.

Over the years, he also used smuggling some resources to improve his strength to the 92nd level of Titled Douluo, and became a genuine ninth-level soul mentor.

Even Xu Tianran was willing to pay any price to win over the other party, but unfortunately Xu Guozhong never gave a positive response.

After all, he is a traitor and naturally unwilling to be inferior to others. If there is a chance, he also wants to fight!
……

At this moment in the hall of the palace, two figures sat opposite each other, drinking and chatting happily.

The man on the left is tall, with dark skin, thick lips, a big bald head, and is wearing a black robe with gold edges. He is a typical dark-skinned aristocrat.

With such distinctive features, this person is none other than the owner of Prince Zhong’s Mansion - Xu Guozhong.

Opposite Xu Guozhong was a white-haired old man with an equally powerful aura. He looked ordinary, but his whole body exuded a murderous aura.

This man was none other than the commander of the Imperial Guards—Linghu Yun.

Linghu Yun was originally just an ordinary commander in his early years. Later, he met Xu Guozhong. He helped Xu Guozhong smuggle from the imperial capital, and Xu Guozhong helped him obtain cultivation resources and status.

In just ten years, he was promoted from Soul Douluo to Titled Douluo, and even became the chief commander of the Imperial Guard.

However, in recent years, Linghu Yun's promotion has reached a bottleneck. In addition, Xu Guozhong is old. In order to fight for a future for himself and his descendants, he hides it from Xu Guozhong and secretly cooperates with Crown Prince Xu Tianran.

But who could have thought... Xu Tianran died so quickly, the third prince also got his lunch box, and only a bunch of useless princes were left, who were useless.

After thinking it over, he still felt that this old man Xu Guozhong was more reliable...

"Brother Xu, the royal family is in turmoil now. Do you have any ideas?" Seeing that everything was almost ready, Linghu Yun looked at Xu Guozhong tentatively and asked in a low voice.

"Haha, I'm old, what can I think? I'd better wait for those little guys to fight it out." Xu Guozhong took a sip of wine lightly, without showing any other thoughts. Instead, he looked at Linghu Yun and asked with a smile: "On the contrary, you, my brother, have a large number of troops and the entire Imperial City Guards in your hands. What will you do next? There should be many princes who want to win you over, right?"

Xu Guozhong naturally knew what Linghu Yun was thinking, but he did not take the initiative to express his opinion.

After all, the old emperor is still alive. If he dares to show any interest in the throne, the old emperor will definitely kill him at all costs...

To be on the safe side, the idea can be had before the old emperor dies suddenly, but it must not be noticed by anyone.

However, this old fellow Linghu Yun couldn't sit still. He didn't choose any of the princes to join him, but came to him instead...

Seeing that Xu Guozhong was keeping his mouth shut and had no idea at all, Linghu Yun became anxious and said quickly: "Brother Xu, you also know that except for the crown prince and the third prince, none of the princes nowadays can achieve great things, and the old emperor can't hold on for much longer, brother, you..."

"Hey hey hey... what are you talking about, brother!" Xu Guozhong hurriedly forced a glass of wine into the other person's mouth, interrupting him, and said seriously: "I don't have any ideas, don't talk nonsense! I am loyal to the emperor, I can't have any other thoughts!"

When Xu Guozhong said the last sentence, he deliberately emphasized the word "emperor".

Linghu Yun was also a smart man, so he naturally understood what he meant. Before the old emperor died, Xu Guozhong would definitely not take any action.

But after the old emperor's death, it's hard to say...

"Haha, I'm sorry for being rude, come on, have a drink~"

Although Linghu Yun did not achieve his goal, he was pleased with Xu Guozhong's attitude, so he was satisfied and quickly poured wine for Xu Guozhong.

After all, everyone knew the old emperor's condition and that he wouldn't live many years longer.

The other princes are not very promising. Even if the old emperor leaves a will and designates a certain prince as the successor, the others will not accept it, and there will definitely be chaos.

And at that time, if Xu Guozhong could stand up, and he also stood up to support the other party, then...

When he thought of this, Linghu Yun felt that the future was promising. Who knows, he might be able to go one step further and gain more military power!

"By the way, do you know what's going on with the Eighth Prince? Why did he suddenly announce his participation in the fight recently?" Xu Guozhong suddenly thought of something and asked casually.

The royal family values ​​bloodline the most. Although the Eighth Prince has been living a life of idleness and waiting for death, his cultivation is not low. Moreover, the concentration of royal bloodline is the highest among all the princes, and he has inherited a pure solar martial soul.

If the old emperor chose his successor based on blood concentration, then the eighth prince would be the most promising one.

After all, when it comes to bloodline, it’s not that whoever is born earlier has a stronger bloodline; it’s all a matter of luck.

If the Eighth Prince had come out to compete for the throne earlier, he might have been able to compete with the Third Prince and the Crown Prince.

It’s a pity... this kid likes to just eat and wait for death. It may be a little late to stand up now.

"Haha, he's just a clown. Now all major forces have their own supporters and will not change easily. They might even join forces to point the spearhead at the Eighth Prince. He has already decided on his death." Linghu Yun chuckled.

His idea was similar to Xu Guozhong's. If Xu Tianhe had stood up earlier or worked harder, there might have been hope.

But if he suddenly stood out now, not only would he be able to win over other forces, but because of his strong royal blood, it would be easy for other princes to join forces against him.

"Hehehe, it seems that we came at the right time today. I didn't expect to have an unexpected gain..." At this moment, a strange voice suddenly came from the hall.

"who!"

When Linghu Yun and Xu Guozhong heard the strange voice, their faces suddenly changed. They turned around and saw a strange young man standing at the door of the hall.

"Who are you and how did you get in?" Xu Guozhong stood up suddenly, put on a soul guide shield for himself, and looked at Bai Zhou with a serious face.

You know, he and Linghu Yun are both Titled Douluo!

However, the other party was able to sneak in quietly right under the noses of him and Linghu Yun, which was extremely strange and he had to deal with it carefully.

Linghu Yun also released his martial spirit with a serious look on his face.

Because the young man in front of him gave him a vague sense of oppression, which made him very uncomfortable.
