The Ballad of Youth: Inheriting Daoji, Li Hanyi, the Escapee from Marriage

With a long, desolate breath, he looked at King Xiao Chong and said calmly, "King Xiao Chong! Long time no see! Have you come to kill me?"

The White King's eyes were lifeless, but his ears were extremely sharp. He could hear the changes in Xiao Se's desolation and couldn't help but be slightly startled.

The desolate scene before him was no longer what it had been before; his cultivation had been restored, and his aura was even stronger.

They already possess combat power at the level of a sword immortal!

There are people in the world who can kill Xiao Se, but they are all on Xiao Se's side.

The desolation before us is almost invincible!

In an instant, the White King's pursuit of the throne vanished completely!

He sighed and said, "That's right! I'm here to kill you!"

Xiao Se fell silent for a moment, not expecting the White King to admit it so readily!

At this moment, Xiao Se was somewhat confused. He looked at the White King and asked, "Is the allure of the throne really that great? Is it really that important?"

“Now that things have come to this, I don’t want to lie to you!” White King Xiao Chong turned his head, and his lifeless white eyes suddenly became sharper, giving people the feeling that he could see through them.

He looked at Xiao Se and said, "If you are still the owner of Snowfall Manor, we are still brothers. But if you are a contender for the throne, then... we can only face each other to the death! There is no other possibility!"

"So that's how it is!" Xiao Se toyed with the Wuji Staff in his hand, remained silent for a long time, then suddenly looked at King Xiao Chong and said, "Four years ago, I was ambushed and killed. Was it you who did it?"

Xiao Chong was taken aback and fell silent.

Xiao Se wasn't in a hurry, and slowly said, "I still remember that great battle! Time has passed, but I just want to know one answer, which is... was it you who ordered it?"

"It's me!" King Xiao Chong nodded slightly, readily admitting it.

Upon hearing Xiao Chong's words, Xiao Se was not angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "I see. I understand! You can leave now!"

Upon hearing Xiao Se's words, the White King was completely stunned.

He was somewhat incredulous and couldn't help but ask, "You...aren't you going to take revenge?"

"There's no need!" Xiao Se put away the Wuji Staff and said to the White King, "Just as you didn't kill me when I was down on my luck! There's no enmity between us! We're just pitiful worms driven by imperial power!"

Bai Wang looked bewildered; he could no longer see Xiao Se clearly at all.

Seeing this, Xiao Se continued, "This is the power of the throne. It can turn brothers against each other, and it can kill anything that can be killed for it! Second brother, tell me, if I become emperor, one day, will I kill Lei Wujie... and the mad monk, just to secure my throne?"

Upon hearing this, King Xiao Chong was even more bewildered!

I don't understand at all what "desolate" means.

Lei Wujie, standing to the side, scratched his head, looked at Xiao Se, and said with considerable surprise, "Xiao Se, you would do such a thing?"

“Throughout history, there have been instances of fathers and sons killing each other on the throne!” Xiao Se said with a smile, pointing at the White King. “Look at him, he’s not even on the throne yet, and he can already do this. If I were to sit on it, I’d definitely end up like him one day!”

Lei Wujie was taken aback. He looked at Xiao Se, hesitated for a moment, and said, "So you mean you don't plan to be emperor anymore?"

"When did I say I wanted to be emperor?" Xiao Se looked at Lei Wujie with a puzzled expression.

The White King was also stunned, and his whole body trembled.

To his utter surprise, Xiao Se had this plan. He looked at Xiao Se with some confusion and asked, "Then... why did you come back? Why go back to Tianqi?"

"I've returned to seek justice!" Xiao Se said firmly, his face resolute. "I will give the Prince of Langya justice!"

Chapter 191 The Red King's End

King Xiao Chong fell silent instantly; the desolate scene before him gave him a strange feeling.

As Wushuang said, Xiaose is Xiaose, and Yong'an Wang is Yong'an Wang.

Xiao Se looked at Xiao Chong and continued, "Sitting on the throne would make me lose myself. I will not sit on that position! If you want it, then go and take it!"

"I see, I understand now!" King Xiao Chong straightened his back and said to Xiao Se, "Then... I'll accompany you back to Tianqi!"

With a half-smile on his face, Xiao Se said, "Are you trying to take advantage of me?"

"That's not necessarily a bad thing!" Xiao Chong said frankly, then suddenly added, "I wonder if you'd be willing?"

Xiao Se chuckled and said, "Compared to the Crimson King, I would much rather you ascend the throne!"

When King Xiao Chong heard Xiao Se say this, he was extremely excited.

As long as Xiao Se stands on my side, then the throne... doesn't seem so unattainable.

On the other side, Red King Xiao Yu overheard the conversation between Xiao Se and White King!

He went completely insane!

The White King and the Yong'an King stood together, and the thing he feared most still happened.

At this point, he... has no chance of winning!

In an instant, the Crimson King, ready to throw caution to the wind, shouted at Wuxin beside him, "Wuxin, kill Prince Yong'an, Xiao Chuhe!"

"Unintentional?"

Xiao Se was slightly taken aback, then flew into a rage!

No wonder the man in black gave him a familiar feeling; I never expected it to be Wuxin!

Wuxin is one of the few friends he acknowledges!

In an instant, Xiao Se's true energy erupted, and wielding the Limitless Staff, he was about to kill the Crimson King Xiao Yu!

The smile on Lei Wujie's face vanished instantly.

His mood was almost identical to Xiao Se's at this moment. He drew his sword and stood directly in front of Xiao Se, shouting angrily, "Xiao Se, you go and stop Wu Xin, I'm going to kill that bastard!"

"no problem!"

Xiao Se was furious and was about to make a move!

Li Xiuyuan grabbed the two men and said, "I'll leave Wuxin to the monk! I'll leave the Crimson King to you two!"

Xiao Se was taken aback for a moment, then felt relieved!

The mad monk is always very reliable when it comes to getting things done!

Before they even finished speaking, Wuxin had already done it!

He slapped Xiao Se with his palm!

"Arhat Heaven-Turning Seal!" Li Xiuyuan remained calm and unhurried as the golden seal shot out from his hand, directly blasting Wuxin away!

Wuxin briefly regained consciousness in mid-air, glanced at Xiao Se and Lei Wujie who were rushing towards the Crimson King Xiao Yu, and suddenly shouted: "Xiao Se, spare Xiao Yu's life!"

Xiao Se was slightly taken aback and looked at Wuxin in mid-air!

Unfortunately, Wuxin only regained consciousness for a short while before falling back into a state of confusion.

They completely disregarded Li Xiuyuan!

He struck Xiao Se directly with a palm, following the orders of the Crimson King Xiao Yu, to kill Xiao Se!

Li Xiuyuan silently appeared behind Wuxin and slapped Wuxin on the head, directly using his magic power to remove the restrictions on Wuxin!

"boom!"

Wu Xin struck out with his palm, which slowly came to a stop in front of Xiao Se.

Then, with a shy smile, he said, "Benefactor Xiao... it's been a long time?"

“It has indeed been a long time, but… now is not the time for reminiscing!” Xiao Se glanced at the Crimson King in the distance, frowned, and asked, “Why did you ask me to spare his life?”

"Wuxin...you're back to normal? I knew it, my brother-in-law had a way!" Lei Wujie was overjoyed. Ignoring the Crimson King Xiao Yu not far away, he looked at Wuxin and asked, "What exactly happened?"

Seeing this, Wuxin sighed and said, "The Crimson King... is my younger brother! We share the same mother but different fathers!"

Xiao Se and Lei Wujie were stunned. This news was too outrageous!

Lei Wujie scratched his head and suddenly asked, "If that's the case... wouldn't you and Xiao Se be brothers too?"

"What are you saying, you little idiot?" Xiao Se's expression was a bit strange.

After counting on my fingers, I couldn't quite figure out what the relationship was.

Seeing Wuxin regain his senses from afar, the Crimson King's face turned ashen!

He then burst into maniacal laughter, "Hahaha, impossible! Wuxin is a drug-man I created... I must be dreaming..."

"A drug user?" Upon hearing Crimson King Xiao Yu's words, Xiao Se frowned and looked at Wuxin, asking, "What exactly happened?"

After a brief silence, Wu Xin recounted how Xiao Yu used his mother to successfully turn Wu Xin into a medicine man.

He gave a complete account of it!

Upon hearing this, Xiao Se frowned slightly and then said, "The Crimson King Xiao Yu actually used his own birth mother as a tool... He no longer deserves to be called a human being!"

"He's an absolute beast!" Lei Wujie shouted angrily, "For someone like him to live is an insult to the world! Wuxin, tell me to kill him!"

Seeing this, Wuxin also sighed and remained silent for a moment.

Finally, he looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked, "Daoji, what do you think?"

"Me?" Li Xiuyuan was speechless, he didn't expect Wuxin to throw this question at him!

Seeing this, Xiao Se also looked at Li Xiuyuan.

In his heart, if he had to say who was the most reliable person in the world, it would have to be Li Xiuyuan.

If even Li Xiuyuan says that Crimson King Xiao Yu is beyond saving, then he really is beyond saving!

Li Xiuyuan glanced at the Crimson King Xiao Yu in the distance, took a sip of wine, tilted his head and thought for a moment, then looked at Wuxin again and asked, "Wuxin, in my opinion, the Crimson King Xiao Yu is beyond saving!"

Lei Wujie chimed in, "Brother-in-law is right. That guy, Crimson King, is beyond saving! Let me do it; I'll just kill him!"

"When I said don't kill him, I didn't mean I'd spare his life!" Wuxin said slowly, his hands behind his back. "Whether it's Lei Wujie or Xiao Se, killing the Crimson King would dirty your hands! Besides... he was, after all, my brother, my mother's biological son! If you want to see her again in the future... the revenge for killing your son... won't be easy to settle!"

Xiao Se was taken aback, then suddenly realized, "Wuxin, so that's what you meant?"

"What else did you think?" Wuxin blinked and said with a smile, "I don't have the habit of repaying kindness with ingratitude!"

Lei Wujie scratched his head and asked, "Wuxin, if the rest of us don't take action, how are we going to deal with the Crimson King? Are we just going to watch him get away?"

"Of course someone made the move!" Wuxin turned to look at King Xiao Chong and said, "Your Highness, Xiao Se has withdrawn from the competition for the throne. Now, the only threat is King Chi! Lone Sword Immortal is currently tied down by Baili Dongjun. How to deal with King Chi is up to you!"

King Xiao Chong was taken aback, nodded slightly, and said, "I... understand!"

Now, the Crimson King Xiao Yu no longer has any combat power at the level of a Sword Immortal!
