There is nothing wrong with the old emperor's health.
However, what was unexpected was that during this period, news frequently spread from the Prince's Mansion that Xu Tianran was suffering from a serious illness. And because Xu Tianran never showed up to respond, the rumors intensified.
It has even spread to the Sun and Moon Court, and everyone in the government and the public is talking about it. However, because they didn't know whether it was true or not, everyone maintained a wait-and-see attitude, waiting for the situation to change.
This news aroused Su Luoheng's attention.
If there were no future scenes observed by the Eye of Destiny, Su Luoheng would also suspect that the news of serious illness was a smoke bomb deliberately released by Xu Tianran. Used to confuse other camps.
But now, Su Luoheng felt that it was most likely the truth.
Because from the analysis of the future scene, it can be concluded that the process of the poison of faith from beginning to corrode to completely erupting takes time.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Xu Tianran to have problems only when he came to the court.
It was even more unlikely that Xu Tianran was the only one in the court who had a sudden change. The entire Sun and Moon Empire, and even the entire Douluo Continent, will explode, instead of just some humans experiencing mutations.
so--
Before the poison of faith completely breaks out, the eroded individual will definitely have some precursory reactions in his body under the influence of this power. Similar to situations such as being irritable or seriously ill.
As for the length of the outbreak, it is related to the individual being eroded.
However, the specific factors are not yet clear.
However, Xu Tianran's sudden illness attracted Su Luoheng's attention.
Although Xu Tianran's physical condition has not been very good since his legs became disabled. But he remembered that before he left Mingdu, he had not shown any signs.
So is this sudden illness related to the outbreak of the poison of faith?
And to go one step further: Could it be that because of Xu Tianran's own incomplete limbs, he was most severely eroded by the poison of faith, and finally mutated under the stimulation of everyone?
even……
Continuing to speculate boldly: Maybe the reason why the Sun and Moon Empire was the most severely poisoned by the poison of faith among the four empires is also related to the physical constitution of its citizens?
You must know that the Sun and Moon Empire has always been biased towards the development of soul guides and the improvement of elixirs. As a result, the physical fitness of the domestic people is generally weaker than that of the Douluo Three Kingdoms.
Su Luoheng's suspicion was not without foundation. If we look at it from a physical perspective, this reason can withstand scrutiny.
"..."
Thinking of this, Su Luoheng's eyes moved slightly.
But in the final analysis, this is just a speculation on my part. Although I think it has a certain possibility, there is no conclusive evidence to conclude this idea.
Therefore, it can only be listed as one of the possibilities.
…
…
After returning to Mingdu.
Through Xu Jinyu, Su Luoheng has been paying close attention to the movements in the court of the Sun and Moon Empire and collecting intelligence. Since King Heng's body recovered, he has also returned to the political center.
Other aspects of the investigation were left to Zhen to collect enthusiastically.
Although he really has no talent in soul guidance, he is definitely top-notch in terms of interpersonal relationships. He was even more prosperous in the shopping mall, helping Su Luoheng accumulate a lot of wealth.
It can be said that Zhen Huan definitely contributed the most to the development of [Chaldea] to where it is today. His current network of contacts has expanded from Sun Moon College to the Mingdu business district.
Merchants travel all over the country and have a good understanding of what is happening among the countries on the continent, so they are most suitable for inquiring about news.
As for Ma Xiaotao, Zhang Lexuan, and Ye Guyi, Su Luoheng arranged them into the soul mentor army secretly trained by Xu Jinyu. With the strength of three people and the soul guide, one can imagine the strength they can exert.
Although Xu Tianran probably won't survive for long, there will be other princes vying for the throne without him. Make preparations in advance to ensure that everything is safe when the time comes.
And even if it is not used when fighting for the throne, when the golden ancient tree completely explodes, it will not be used for the throne.
It can still come in handy when dealing with monsters spawned by the poison of faith.
No matter how you calculate it, this soul guide army will not be wasted.
As for the fact that Xu Tianran would be eroded by the poison of faith, Su Luoheng did not tell anyone except the Snow Emperor. After all, this matter is of great importance and it is not appropriate to let too many people know in advance.
There were still a few days between the time when the old emperor fell seriously ill and when he ordered the prince to supervise the country. By then, it would be too late to prepare again after the old emperor was confirmed to be seriously ill.
Su Luoheng's move also had selfish motives.
If Xu Tianran dies, it will be a huge gain for him.
Because if he died under the poison of faith, it would undoubtedly save a lot of trouble for Xu Jinyu's subsequent battle for the throne. Therefore, this result is in the best interest of one's own side.
Moreover, the problem of the poison of faith cannot be solved by itself. Even if he wanted to save Xu Tianran, there was nothing he could do. It's better to think carefully about how to receive his inheritance.
When Xu Tianran died, the parties under his command were leaderless. If he can successfully accept this part of the power, it will be the best time for Xu Jinyu to move from behind the scenes to the front.
…
…
In addition, after returning to the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, Su Luoheng began to distribute the large amount of fairy grass harvested in the eyes of ice and fire.
The candidates to get the fairy grass this time are Ji Juechen, Meng Hongchen, Xiao Hongchen, Nana, Ran Yuming, Ran Ruobing and other soul masters who are close to each other and have extraordinary talents.
[In view of the general environment,
Nana was originally under Su Luoheng's command.
But my own teachers and senior sisters don’t need much.
As for Ji Juechen, Meng Hongchen, and Xiao Hongchen, the conditions for them to obtain the fairy grass were the same as Ma Xiaotao and others, and they all joined Su Luoheng's forces.
And in this regard, they agreed without any hesitation.
First of all, they trust Su Luoheng.
Secondly, no soul master can refuse the fairy grass that can not only enhance soul power but also enhance talent without any side effects.
"..."
The fairy herb Su Luoheng prepared for Ji Juechen was the eight-petal fairy orchid, which was used to strengthen the body and strengthen the body.
Although Ji Juechen was extremely talented in swordsmanship, his own innate soul power was too low and his soul power cultivation progress was slow. If there is no special opportunity, it is already the limit to break through Contra in this life.
This eight-petal fairy orchid just makes up for his shortcomings in this area.
After getting this fairy grass, Ji Juechen lived up to his expectations, his soul power broke through five levels in a row, and he was only one step away from breaking through to Soul Saint. The shackles of talent no longer exist.
The fairy grass Nana got was the Cold Spirit Ghost Flower. After absorbing it, her soul power successfully broke through to the Soul Emperor realm.
The fairy grass prepared for Meng Hongchen was a snow jade ice Ganoderma lucidum, which perfectly matched her ice attribute soul power. After refining it, the soul power broke through to level 66 in one fell swoop.
Xiao Hongchen also absorbed a metallic fairy grass whose attributes matched his martial spirit. The soul power broke through to level 68 in one fell swoop, and he was also one step away from the Soul Saint.
Nana, Meng Hongchen, and Xiao Hongchen are all the main players confirmed for the next Soul Fighting Competition of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy. Coupled with Su Luoheng and Gu Qianqiu, a total of five soul emperors are in charge, and the lineup of this year's Sun Moon Academy can be said to be unprecedentedly powerful.
There is a high chance that he will be the defending champion of the Soul Fighting Competition.
Closer to home, the jelly grass Su Luoheng prepared for his teacher and senior sister were purple orchid aesculus to repair mental trauma, and narcissus jade muscle bone to nourish the muscles and bones.
Knowing that there was hope for recovery from his mental trauma, Ran Yuming felt very nervous.
Ran Yuming has tried too many methods since his mental trauma. He was afraid that this time the result would be another empty joy and a waste of his apprentice's efforts.
Fortunately, the result this time did not disappoint him again!
Under the nourishment of purple orchid seven-leaf clover, Ran Yuming felt that his broken spiritual sea began to repair. The originally weak mental strength also changed.
I have to solidify and persevere, and my depleted spiritual ocean begins to gradually recover.
Mental strength is beginning to recover!
At this moment, Ran Yuming's whole body trembled with excitement.
Even if he has accepted the reality that he is stuck as a seventh-level soul master and will never be able to break through to become a titled Douluo for the rest of his life. However, when the mental power truly begins to recover, the level of surprise is unmatched by anything.
Finally, there is hope!
Ran Yuming tried hard to suppress the turbulence in his heart and continued to refine.
While the mental power was being repaired, the shackles of the soul power that had been stuck at level 89 Contra for many years due to mental power began to slowly increase, and the soul core condensed and took shape.
So, with the nourishment of the immortal herbs, Ran Yuming simply condensed his first soul core and officially broke through to the title Douluo level. If it weren't for the problem of the spiritual sea, he would have been able to condense the soul core long ago.
"Hahaha!
"
Ran Yuming was so excited that he couldn't describe it and laughed loudly.
He originally thought that he would be trapped here for the rest of his life, but just when he had given up, his apprentice brought a surprise.
At this moment, he was glad that he accepted Su Luoheng.
Seeing this scene, Su Luoheng laughed.
"..."
Don't forget, Ran Yuming's main job is to be a soul mentor. If it weren't for the limitation of soul power, he would have already reached the ninth level soul master.
Now that there are no restrictions on soul power, making an eighth-level soul guide is easy for him. As for the ninth-level soul guide, it wouldn't take long given his soul guide level.
He has mastered the theoretical knowledge to perfection, and what he needs now is a practical process.
So after hearing that Su Luoheng needed a ninth-level soul guide sword, Ran Yuming took the initiative to stop the job and made this soul guide sword his first work after becoming a ninth-level soul mentor.
In this regard, Su Luoheng is naturally happy to see the results.
There is no need to question the ability of my teacher on the soul guide.
"..."
Just like that, time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, Su Luoheng had returned to Mingdu for more than five months.
During this time, in addition to practicing, he was always paying attention to the situation.
During this period, although Xu Tianran appeared in the court, there were constant rumors about his long-term illness. Moreover, according to insiders in the government, Xu Tianran's mood became increasingly violent.
In addition, he finally waited for the most important news!
The old emperor suddenly fell ill and was unable to preside over the court meeting.
"It's finally about to begin..."
Su Luoheng murmured with a solemn expression.
He knew that the future scene was about to unfold, and it was time for him to start preparing.
Thinking of this, Su Luoheng left the college.
The first stop of the visit is Prince Heng’s Mansion!
…
…
Two days later.
Mingdu, the Sun and Moon Palace, above the court hall.
Officials at all levels are listed on the left and right of the main hall.
Not long after waiting, surrounded by attendants, Xu Tianran was wearing the highest standard of the Sun and Moon Royal Family's brocade robe with sun and moon crown patterns, and stood in the Sun and Moon Hall with a ninth-level soul-guided prosthetic leg.
He strode forward and stood in front of the throne.
Looking at the Sun and Moon Emperor who was so close to Chi Chi, a fiery look flashed in his eyes. Although his face was slightly pale, it did not conceal his ambitious and sharp gaze.
Soon, soon!
Immediately, he can be in this position!
Xu Tianran took a deep breath, then sat on the smaller chair next to him, looking down at the civil and military officials below.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a thousand years old."
Everyone knelt down on the ground and saluted.
"My dear friends, please be safe."
Xu Tianran raised his arm to help him, a strange and unpredictable red color appeared in his majestic and cold eyes.
mango.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
The ministers stood up and stood in two rows according to their official rank.
"My father is in poor health. For the sake of the stability of our empire, my father intends to let me supervise the country and govern the country during this period. I wonder if you have any objections?"
Xu Tianran's face was filled with a gentle smile, but his eyes were scanning the crowd sharply, giving them invisible pressure. But beneath this seemingly gentle and jade-like appearance, there is a hint of ruthlessness hidden.
"..."
"If you have no objections, then I—"
"Your Highness, I have objections!"
Suddenly, a minister came forward and said loudly: "His Majesty is seriously ill now, and I have heard that you are ill. If it is confirmed, I am afraid that the issue of supervising the country needs to be discussed again..."
"I second the proposal. Your Highness the Crown Prince is the Crown Prince of the Sun and Moon, and is responsible for the future of our Sun and Moon Empire. Please ensure your health, and leave the responsibility of supervising the country to others!"
"Um?"
Xu Tianran still maintained a humble and kind smile on his face, but there was a chill in his eyes.
"What? Are you all against me overseeing the country?"
"Your Highness, I forgive you. I have no objection. I just feel that you have just recovered and it would be best for you to rest quietly for a few days."
"Yes, as the Crown Prince, Your Highness should put your health first!"
"Your Highness, I second your proposal."
"..."
Suddenly, there was a chorus of agreement.
Everyone present was a smart person, and everyone knew that Xu Tianran wanted to consolidate his position as the crown prince through the position of supervising the country.
Once this decree is issued, all of them and other members of the prince's faction will definitely be liquidated from the court.
But they don't want to end the chance to compete for the throne like this. As long as he doesn't supervise other princes in the country, they will still have a chance. So they are trying to make it impossible for them to supervise the country.
Therefore, no matter which party the ministers were in, they were all united as never before. They just didn't want Xu Tianran to take the position of supervising the country. Although Xu Tianran controlled most of the court, it was still a little difficult to deal with it at the moment.
