Chapter 254 The Prince Dies And The Conflict Escalates!
At the same time, high above the sky.
Duan Ming, who was flying at high speed, suddenly stopped. In front of him, a burst of white light appeared, and a figure in a black robe walked out.
"Master!"
Duan Ming immediately bowed respectfully.
He was secretly surprised that the leader could accurately find his location even when he was moving so fast. It was simply unbelievable!
The black-robed figure nodded slightly and looked at him, saying, "Where are you in such a hurry to go?"
Duan Ming cupped his hands and said, "Master, I received news that the Second Prince Lie Xiang and the Eldest Princess Lie Feiyan were ambushed. I am preparing to go rescue them."
The black-robed figure raised an eyebrow and glanced at Duan Ming, asking, "Who has the audacity to attack the Crown Princess and the Prince of the Empire?"
Duan Ming smiled and said, "If my guess is correct, it should be the people of the Southern King."
"Oh?" The black-robed figure became interested. "How do you know?"
Duan Ming's mouth curled up with a smile as he honestly said, "I won't hide it from you, Master. I deliberately provoked this incident. Some time ago, I found a Rank Seven Spirit Medicine in a certain place. I planned to offer it to you after it aged a bit. Later, I realized that this item could be used, so I intentionally guided Lie Xiang and Lie Feiyan, who were traveling outside, and then deliberately leaked the information to the Third Prince. In this way, the Third Prince would definitely not sit still, and his men would not be able to intervene. He would have to seek help from the Southern King. By doing so, I can inform Lie Huan about this matter..."
The black-robed figure couldn't help but be amazed. This guy really had countless schemes!
He could actually come up with such a method to provoke a dispute between father and son. Originally, Lie Huan had doubts about the Third Prince. Now, it would directly confirm his collusion with the Southern King. Father and son would inevitably become enemies.
The black-robed figure looked Duan Ming up and down and felt that this person was simply a reincarnation of Jia Xu. He would be a talent worth using.
"Not enough. I think we need to add more fuel to the fire. You can go later. It would be best if a large-scale battle breaks out and some people die..." The black-robed figure nodded.
Duan Ming's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly, saying, "Master, your wisdom is divine!"

At this moment, on the battlefield outside the Four Elephant City.
The gray-robed man only realized something was wrong when the giant spirit palm was about to fall. He quickly flashed to the side and looked into the deep pit, his pupils shrinking.
Inside the pit, Lie Xiang had already been completely disfigured. His entire body had almost turned into minced meat under the giant spirit palm. Even his flesh and blood burst out from his spirit armor. It was an extremely tragic sight.
"This is bad..."
The gray-robed man took a cold breath, knowing that he had caused a big disaster this time.
If it was only robbery without killing, it would be fine!
Even if there were killings, as long as Lie Xiang and Lie Feiyan were not harmed, there wouldn't be too much trouble. But now, Lie Xiang had been killed, which would definitely anger the person in the Imperial Capital. The consequences would be unimaginable.
He could only blame Lie Xiang for being too stubborn and refusing to hand over the Seven-Tailed Phoenix Aconite.
But he was not an ordinary person either. He quickly calmed down and, after investigating the surroundings, quickly used his magic to erase all traces of his presence. After confirming that everything was in order, he quickly returned to the battlefield and transmitted his voice to the three gray-robed men who were still fighting, saying, "I made a mistake. Lie Xiang is dead!"
"What!"
The three of them were shocked and turned around in disbelief. The leader among them angrily transmitted his voice, "Are you crazy?"
The former helplessly said, "That kid's bones were too hard. Even under heavy injuries, he still wanted to attack me. I accidentally..."
"Did you get the Spirit Medicine?"
"It's in my hands!"
The incident had already happened, and there was no use talking about it. The leader of the gray-robed men made a decisive decision and shouted, "Retreat!"
They immediately prepared to fly away.
"Not so fast!"
Kou Ci was covered in wounds, and most of their side had suffered casualties, but he refused to let the other side escape. He tightly pursued them, wanting to give the two princes a chance to survive.
Meanwhile, Lie Feiyan arrived at the battlefield where Lie Xiang was located, chased by the enemy along the edge of the formation. At a glance, she saw the incredibly huge pit and scattered pieces of spiritual armor next to it, causing her heart to tremble involuntarily.
She recognized it, this was Little Brother Lie Xiang's spiritual armor.
"Oh no!"
Lie Feiyan exclaimed in shock and quickly flew closer, immediately seeing the extremely tragic bodies in the pit.
"Little Brother!"
Lie Feiyan cried out in grief, jumping into the pit and using her Spirit Power to lift up the body, tears streaming down her face.
Among the many princes and princesses, she had the best relationship with this second brother. He had never been interested in power and had spent the most time with her. She never expected him to die here.
The gray-robed person who was chasing after them also had his pupils contract.
The second prince had actually died!
What did they do? How could they really kill him? Are they seeking death?
With the prince's tragic death, the emperor would definitely be furious and would spare no expense to find the culprit.
"I will make you pay for my Little Brother's life—"
Lie Feiyan's eyes turned red, shooting out of the pit in an instant. A fiery red stream of light surrounded her as she charged madly towards the enemy.
The gray-robed person had already lost the will to fight and didn't dare to confront the crazed Lie Feiyan head-on. They retreated while fighting.
"Die—"
The four gray-robed people who were entangled by Kou Ci also fell into madness. They knew that if they stayed any longer, the enemy's reinforcements would arrive. They immediately used all their strength to attack.
Boom!
Kou Ci spewed blood from his mouth and fell to the ground. Before he could even get up, a huge hammer from above smashed down, crushing his Primordial Spirit into powder.
"Uncle Kou—"
Lie Feiyan, who witnessed this scene, was filled with rage. She tightly clung to the remaining guard behind her.
This guard also cried out in distress.
My princess, everyone on our side is dead, only I am left. If we don't leave now, we won't be able to leave!
But Lie Feiyan had already lost her sanity. She was determined to make the enemy pay for her Little Brother's life. The fiery red stream of light shot out, refusing to retreat.
"Crazy woman!"
The leader of the gray-robed people's face turned cold. "We have already killed so many, one more won't make a difference. Let's deal with her together, cleanly!"
The others also showed a ferocious expression. Since they had already killed one prince, killing one more princess wouldn't matter. They immediately surrounded Lie Feiyan and attacked.
Just at this moment.
Boom!
The earth shook and the great formation, under the terrifying power, shattered with a single breath. Everyone was shocked and turned to look. They saw two figures shooting towards them at high speed. One of them was the black-robed clone, and the other was Duan Ming wearing a tall hat.
"We are late to rescue, please forgive us, Princess!"
Duan Ming shouted loudly, and at the same time, a Flying Sword shot out from his sleeve, instantly piercing through the chest of one of the gray-robed people.
Too powerful!
The gap between the Self Union Realm and the Fusion Void Realm was like a huge chasm, they were not opponents on the same level at all.
With just one encounter, this gray-robed person in the middle stage of the Fusion Void Realm died instantly, and their Primordial Spirit was also crushed.
"Oh no, run!"
The leader of the gray-robed people's pupils contracted. He slapped Lie Feiyan in mid-air, knocking her back, and incidentally killed the remaining heavily injured guard with a shockwave. Then, the remaining four immediately fled in different directions without looking back.
