Kill Qin Tian.
How to kill him, that is indeed a question.
Hearing the Ice Emperor's words, at least, both the Ninth Prince and the Crown Prince let out a sigh of relief—
From the Ice Emperor's stance, it seems he agrees to kill Qin Tian.
Agreent is good, agreent ans that if they eliminate Qin Tian without going through the Ice Emperor, he shouldn't punish them.
"Father, there's no ti to delay. Now that Qin Tian is in the Imperial City, he's like a lamb—a perfect opportunity for us to act. I just discovered that Qin Tian seems to have sensed sothing and may make defensive arrangents once he returns, so we must act before he realizes it. Otherwise, once he returns to West State, he might turn the tables and rebel!"
To kill Qin Tian, the Ninth Prince didn't care about much else and spoke heavily in front of the Ice Emperor.
The two words "rebel" made the Ice Emperor's cheek twitch.
He took a deep breath, looked at the Ninth Prince and Crown Prince below, then stood up, shook his head, and sighed, "You have grown up, I can no longer control you..."
After speaking, the Ice Emperor directly exited the main hall, while the Ninth Prince and Crown Prince exchanged smiles, understanding the Ice Emperor's words.
"Brother, next, let's see who acts faster."
The Ninth Prince, full of pride, looked at the Crown Prince and said, "If I snatch this rit away from you, don't bla . Hahaha..."
The Crown Prince smiled faintly and said, "I won't bla you, I'll just congratulate you... However, I must remind you, Qin Tian is a demon that, when enraged, can instill fear in anyone. If you act thoughtlessly, you'll bring trouble upon yourself, and I, your brother, can only shake my head in regret..."
"Hmph, just a re Qin Tian. I am a Prince, what can he do to ? Even if he's promoted to the Marquess of West, he still has to bow before !"
Afterwards, the Ninth Prince glanced sideways at the Crown Prince and said, "But you, Brother, all soft and weak, only know how to hang around with a group of won all day, without any semblance of a Crown Prince, just occupying a title... hehe..."
After mocking him, the Ninth Prince directly walked out.
The Crown Prince made an orchid gesture, smiled faintly, watched the Ninth Prince's departing figure, showing no signs of anger on his face, only muttering under his breath, "Soft, am I? Hmph, when I harden, you won't be able to withstand it..."
...
Qin Tian returned directly from the Imperial Palace to his residence.
He was very angry.
Today's visit to the palace had utterly disgusted him.
The Ice Emperor reneged on his word, revoked his forty thousand troop command, and as soon as he arrived in the Imperial City, he instantly wanted to reclaim Qin Tian's last forty thousand soldiers!
Damn it, when Qin Tian was working tirelessly and shedding blood in West State, why didn't the Ice Emperor say he would send reinforcents? Now, after the King's defeat, he wants to kill the donkey after it's done its work!
Simply inhuman!
"The birds are gone, the bow is hidden, the cunning rabbit is dead, the hunting dog is cooked... Hehe, so eager to target , well then, you are heartless, and I will be unrighteous! We'll see!"
Qin Tian murmured, having completely lost trust in the Ice Emperor.
This person with whom he had a vendetta, was so urgent to target him, then he would show no rcy either!
"Boss..."
"Boss, your complexion..."
"Young master..."
When Qin Tian returned to his residence, Zhou Yang, Xiao Zhuang, and Du Qiuniang noticed that his face was rather unsightly.
"Close the door."
Qin Tian said softly, and the group went into the room, where Qin Tian quietly said, "We must be cautious from now on; we may encounter endless challenges. I'm considering whether to return to West State."
"Huh?"
As soon as Qin Tian spoke, Zhou Yang and the others were stunned.
Just two days here, and he wants to leave?
Moreover, seeing Qin Tian's anger, they understood the matter was no small incident.
"Boss, what happened exactly? Did the Ice Emperor reveal sothing today?"
Zhou Yang asked.
Qin Tian nodded: "I went to the palace to see the Emperor today; the Ice Emperor didn't summon
alone. Both Ninth Prince and Crown Prince were present."
"Huh?"
Everyone was stunned again.
"The Ice Emperor encouraged the Ninth Prince to speak, asking him to lead troops to invade the Demon Clan... and then ca up with a flimsy excuse saying the Imperial City lacked enough soldiers and asked the Ninth Prince to command the West State troops to invade the Demon Clan together."
Swish!
When Qin Tian said this, Zhou Yang and the others' faces changed.
Zhou Yang's face was incredibly serious and said: "The Ice Emperor's move is too treacherous. We agreed to reduce forty thousand troops, only then did we return to the Imperial City. Did he plan this just to lure us back, and then move on to the next phase?"
"Seems like it." Xiao Zhuang said, "I will imdiately instruct my spies to monitor any changes. Over the next few days, we might truly face danger."
Du Qiuniang asked puzzledly, "If the Ice Emperor wants to kill the Young Master, he could have done it in the palace. Why didn't he act?"
Zhou Yang said, "That's unclear."
Qin Tian recalled the Ice Emperor's expression at the ti and said, "I guess the Ice Emperor may have so hesitations; whether to kill
or act against , he might be undecided."
"What hesitations does he have?" Du Qiuniang asked.
Zhou Yang replied, "West State's soldiers."
"Currently, West State's forty thousand elite soldiers are under the boss's command, and they know General Xu Kuan's absolute loyalty to the boss. If they rashly kill the boss, it could spark a mutiny. After all, forty thousand elite soldiers, West State has just been through the King's turmoil; causing more trouble is surely troubling for the Ice Emperor."
"Besides this reason, perhaps, the Ice Emperor worries that soone in the court might oppose. At present, there are nurous loyalists in the court. The boss has just made great contributions, if he's killed upon returning to the Imperial City, who would dare remain loyal to the Ice Emperor afterward? Plus, with the King's previous fall as an example, the Ice Emperor also fears causing unrest in the court."
Zhou Yang analyzed slowly: "Moreover, I also heard, recently, the Imperial City's Long Yin has been more active, several generals have been assassinated. If at this ti, the Ice Emperor arbitrarily kills ministers, many ministers may panic, which might be exploited by Long Yin. Long Yin is indeed the Ice Emperor's long-standing problem."
Xiao Zhuang and Du Qiuniang slowly nodded.
Qin Tian remained silent, and when Zhou Yang finished, Qin Tian made a decisive decision, "Pack up, we'll leave the city imdiately!"
"Leave the city?"
All three of Zhou Yang were stunned.
Qin Tian nodded, "I have a bad feeling; even if the Ice Emperor doesn't act against , the Ninth Prince and Crown Prince should not let this opportunity slip."
"Since today, the Ice Emperor summoned them both and clearly intends to target , he's sending a signal to the Ninth Prince—they can kill ; I'm not one of the Ice Emperor's people!"
Qin Tian's eyes revealed a chill: "So, the Ninth Prince will undoubtedly strike at
with lethal force!"
