Chapter 417: Brother Qinghe, please mourn!
When Ye Chen arrived at the scene of Emperor Xue Ye's assassination, the streets near the scene were already crowded with people.
Fortunately, Dai Kun's ninth soul skill did not kill all the hundreds of royal guards. The surviving royal guards set up vigilance at the scene.
"I just noticed that a titled Douluo was using force here. What happened?"
Ye Chen asked the still alive Iron-armored Mad Rhino Soul Douluo.
As for the Soul Douluo with the Red Flame Demonic Lion Spirit, because his defense was relatively poor, he suffered a hit from Dai Kun's ninth soul skill, White Tiger: Killing the Sky, and was already cold before the healing soul master came over.
It's cold.
"I have seen His Majesty Qingjing, and an assassin assassinated His Majesty."
Qingjingmianxia is naturally the honorific title given to Ye Chen.
After Ye Chen advanced to Title Douluo, he did not specifically give himself a title.
However, according to the mainland's practice, for a titled Douluo who has not received a title, the title is usually taken from the name of his own martial spirit.
"An assassin assassinated Your Majesty? What about Your Majesty?"
Ye Chen asked with his eyes widened and a look of shock on his face.
"..."
The Contra didn't say anything, but just glanced at the debris of the carriage not far away that he hadn't had time to clean up.
Under the Gengjin Qi flow of Dai Kun's ninth soul skill, White Tiger Killing the Sky, the old man Xue Ye's body was instantly wiped out, leaving not even a body behind.
"Who is the murderer?"
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes and started yelling, "Catch the thief."
"The murderer's martial spirit is the white tiger martial spirit unique to the Dai family of the Star Luo royal family. The specific identity has not been confirmed yet."
"How brave! The Dai family actually dares to send a titled Douluo to assassinate His Majesty!"
Ye Chen said with an indignant look, "Whoever didn't know, thought he was a loyal minister of Tiandou!"
Soon, many experts from Tiandou City arrived at the scene one after another, and Dugu Bo also came.
As the only titled Douluo living in Tiandou City, with such a big commotion happening here, Dugu Bo naturally wanted to come over to eat.
"Brother, what's going on here? Were you doing it just now?"
Looking at the somewhat messy assassination scene, Dugu Bo asked Ye Chen.
The relationship between the two was not bad. Dugu Bo didn't care that Ye Chen and his granddaughter had the same seniority, and directly called him brother.
"No, His Majesty was assassinated just now by a titled Douluo from the Dai family."
Ye Chen said to Dugu Bo with a solemn expression.
Dugu Bo's eyes widened: "What? The Dai family? The Dai family of the Xingluo royal family?"
"Well, the murderer's martial spirit is White Tiger. He had already run away before I came."
Ye Chen nodded.
"Does the Star Luo Empire want to start a war?"
Dugu Bo couldn't believe it. A titled Douluo from the Dai family of the Star Luo royal family actually went to Tiandou City to assassinate Emperor Xue Ye? Are you sure you didn't take the wrong medicine?
Or is it that the Star Luo Empire is already preparing to go to war with Tiandou?
"How do I know? But the Dai family is really hateful. They always do some shameful things!"
Ye Chen said bitterly.
Hearing this, Dugu Bo nodded. He had not forgotten that more than half a year ago, the Dai family's White Tiger Douluo ambush Ye Chen outside Tiandou City!
The Xingluo royal family has a criminal record, and the murderer is a titled Douluo of the White Tiger Martial Spirit. If this was not done by the Dai family, no one would dare to believe it.
Not long after, Qian Renxue, who received the news of the assassination of Emperor Xue Ye, and Xue Xing, who was recovering from his injuries at home, also came.
Well, Xuexing was lying on a stretcher and was carried over.
There was no way around it. Xuexing was attacked by an assassin at home before. Even after being treated by a healing soul master, the injury still could not be healed in a short period of time.
After all, not every healing soul master has a healing level as high as Ye Chen.
"Brother Qinghe, please forgive me!"
Seeing Qian Renxue coming, Ye Chen stepped forward and pretended to comfort her.
Qian Renxue: "..."
"Brother Xian, can you see who the murderer is?"
Qian Renxue's acting skills are still very good. She changed from her usual elegant and easy-going character to a sullen face. You can tell at a glance that she is suppressing the anger in her heart.
"I don't know, the murderer had already escaped before I came here. But the murderer's martial spirit is the white tiger unique to the Dai family. This matter must have something to do with the Dai family of Xingluo!"
Ye Chen shook his head.
"Hateful! This Dai family dared to assassinate my father!"
Qian Renxue clenched her fists and said bitterly.
'Is it possible that the Dai family has a grudge because of what happened last time and is here to take revenge?'
Xuexing was lying on the stretcher with a sad face and thinking secretly.
What happened last time was naturally referring to Ye Chen entrusting Tiandou officials to sell the body of White Tiger Douluo Dai Tianli to Xing Luo.
Although Xue Xing knew that his eldest nephew Xue Qinghe was very ruthless, and the deaths of the second and third princes were most likely related to Xue Qinghe.
But this time, Xuexing had no doubts.
After all, the identity of the assassin is very clear. The only one in the mainland who has the White Tiger Spirit is the Dai family of the Xingluo royal family. Now it is just that it is not clear which figure in the Dai family the assassin who assassinated Emperor Xue Ye is.
Moreover, Emperor Xueye is already quite old, and it is impossible for him to cultivate another successor to the empire.
In other words, as long as he goes step by step, Xue Qinghe can inherit the throne of Tiandou, and there is no need to waste so much effort on assassination tricks.
However, what Xuexing couldn't figure out was why the Dai family wanted to assassinate Emperor Xueye?
Even if you want to take revenge, you have to take revenge on Ye Chen!
After all, Dai Tianli and others did not die at the hands of the Xue family, but fell into the hands of Ye Chen. Why did they come to take revenge on the royal family?
Could it be that Ye Chen was too powerful and the Dai family couldn't do it, so he turned around and took advantage of him?
Xuexing felt that this was probably the cause of the assassination.
Immediately, Xuexing hated the Dai family even more.
At this moment, the fourth prince Xue Beng also arrived.
"Uncle Wang, has my father really passed away?"
Xue Beng asked Xue Xing with a panic look on his face.
"Hey~, no one thought that the Dai family could be so cruel. Xue Beng, you have to express your condolences."
Xuexing shook his head and sighed.
After getting the answer, Xue Beng immediately collapsed on the ground, staring at the sky with blank eyes, and murmured: "Father, are you just leaving like this?"
Emperor Xue Ye was assassinated, which was like the sky falling for Xue Beng.
Why has he pretended to be a playboy for so many years? Isn't it just to survive in the hands of his good brother Xue Qinghe?
In the past, when his father was still alive, Xue Qinghe would naturally not attack him openly.
But now that his father has passed away, it is certain that his eldest brother Xue Qinghe will succeed to the throne.
When Xue Qinghe succeeds to the throne, if he is to be assassinated, who in the huge Tiandou Empire can stop him?
"Xue Qinghe, you are so cruel! For the sake of the throne, you actually dare to send someone to assassinate your father!"
Suddenly, Xue Beng stood up, pointed at Qian Renxue and yelled.
Although Xue Beng had no evidence, he had every reason to suspect that his father's death had an ulterior connection with his good brother Xue Qinghe.
After all, since his father is dead, Xue Qinghe, as the prince, can get the greatest benefit.
On the other hand, what advantage can the Xingluo Dai family, who was previously identified as the murderer, take advantage of except getting the declaration of war from the Tiandou Empire?
Some are just irritated.
From the perspective of vested interests, only Xue Qinghe is the biggest winner.
What's more, Avalanche is also very thoughtful.
The less sensible he appears now, the safer he is actually. After all, who cares about a playboy who puts all his thoughts on his face?
