Chapter 68 Hunting Tournament (Part )

Inside Tiandou City.

Inside an inconspicuous building.

Xue Yu, wearing shiny silver armor, sat there with his eyes closed.

Taking the troops out for training was naturally a cover, but he did lead the troops away, and the troops he led were the 30,000 guards. But that doesn't mean he can't come back. He had sneaked back to Tiandou City the day before yesterday.

There are many generals waiting in this building, and all of them are local military generals.

Since he dared to rebel, it was naturally impossible for him to rely solely on the 30,000 guards.

He was not stupid. It was wishful thinking for him to accomplish anything with 30,000 guards. Since he wanted to rebel, he naturally had to be adequately prepared. He had originally hoped that the two kingdoms that supported him would be able to help him, but now the two kingdoms simply ignored him.

He also knew that he could no longer rely on these two kingdoms, and that these two kingdoms had even betrayed him.

"It seems that Father has given up on me."

"He already knows I'm going to rebel."

A general behind him asked, "Should we take action now?"

The 50,000 local troops have been marching secretly, hiding during the day and at night. Now they have arrived at a forest outside Tiandou City and are hiding there. As long as Xue Yu gives the order, they can take action and then take down Tiandou City with the help of both inside and outside forces.

As long as Xue Yu takes the families of the nobles, ministers and generals in this city hostage, he will be able to take the initiative. The most important point is that most of the families of the Royal Knights and the Royal Guards are also in Tiandou City.

By holding these people hostage, the Guards and the Royal Knights dared not act rashly.

The generals who followed him in the rebellion could no longer wait. This was a matter of life and death, and they had to succeed. If they failed, not only they, but also the city lords and nobles behind them would die without a burial place.

But if they succeed, what awaits them is countless wealth and high status.

"No hurry, wait a little longer. Father and his men have just left Tiandou City. If we take action, they will immediately turn back, and then we will be finished."

The more this happens, the less anxious he should be and the more stable he should be. Now is the weakest time for Tiandou City and it is also his only chance.

His goal had never been the royal hunting grounds.

Xue Ye was wrong, Di Hong was wrong, and even the old emperor was wrong.

Everyone guessed wrong.

His target has always been Tiandou City.

At noon.

A team of more than 10,000 people arrived at the royal hunting ground in a mighty procession.

The gate of the hunting ground was opened and the team entered in an orderly manner. The old emperor Xue Tang rode a white Tianhun horse, looking mighty in his armor.

Looking at his rosy complexion, Di Hong frowned slightly. As a soul master, he could tell at a glance that the emperor was not in good health and he was just holding on.

On a snowy night, Xue Xing and other royal family members and other nobles were waiting with their horses.

Di Hong dismounted and came to Ning Fengzhi.

"Brother Ning."

He bowed to Ning Fengzhi, who nodded slightly. Behind him, twenty disciples of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect stood there in an orderly manner.

"Is the Second Prince making any moves?" He sent a message to Di Hong.

The voice was heard, and Di Hong moved his lips slightly to reply with the same voice.

"No." He was not clear about Xue Yu's movements. Perhaps the person who knew Xue Yu's movements best now was Emperor Xue Tang.

The hunting ground was filled with flags. Some soldiers were holding hunting dogs, which kept barking. From time to time, there were also the sounds of horns and drums. Thousands of cavalrymen were waiting around, and in the distance was a dense forest.

The emperor then spoke briefly for a while and announced the start of the hunting competition. Naturally, the first arrow of the hunting competition was shot by him.

He took out the imperial longbow, then drew the bow and put the arrow on it. The bow looked like a full moon. However, if you look closely, you can see that his hands are shaking slightly. It is obvious that just drawing the bow has consumed a lot of his strength.

Soon, the imperial guards released a rabbit.

After locking onto the rabbit running in front.

With a whoosh, Xue Ting released the bowstring, and the arrow flew through the air, hitting the fleeing rabbit.

"Long live!"

"Long live!"

With the cheers of the imperial guards and other people around, the hunting meeting officially began. Xue Ye, Xue Xing and other royal members rode out on their horses, followed by other noble children.

Dozens of people dispersed and ran towards the nearby forest. Following them were cavalrymen, who not only counted the harvest but also protected them.

Of course, cavalry alone is not enough. There are also flying soul masters patrolling and monitoring in the air, and there are also many soul masters in the mountains and forests.

Di Hong did not participate in the hunt. There were no soul beasts here, and no one would want to assassinate him, so there was no need for him to continue following Xue Ye.

The shot of the arrow seemed to have exhausted Xue Ting's strength, and he was almost supported back to the camp.

Di Hong and Ning Fengzhi followed him back to the camp. Some young ladies from noble families and princesses from the royal family were chatting and laughing in the camp. Many people looked at Di Hong from time to time, but no one dared to step forward.

Everyone knows that he and Tang Yuehua have a special relationship.

She is the daughter of the leader of the world's number one sect. She is much more prestigious than a marquis or duke.

Ning Fengzhi sat there calmly sipping his tea, and Di Hong sat quietly beside him. No one knew where the emperor had gone, probably to take medicine.

"Let's go to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect when we have time." Ning Fengzhi suddenly said.

Di Hong did not refuse: "After obtaining the seventh soul ring, I will definitely go to the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect."

"I heard from His Royal Highness that your seventh spirit ring is intended to directly hunt down a hundred thousand year spirit beast?"

"Yes." Di Hong did not deny it.

Ning Fengzhi was a little surprised.

"I really didn't expect that a hundred thousand year soul beast is not easy to find, and even if you find it, it is not easy to hunt it, unless a Titled Douluo takes action."

"There is no need to hunt a 100,000-year-old soul beast for the seventh soul ring. Wouldn't it be better to hunt a 70,000- or 80,000-year-old soul beast as a second choice?"

In his opinion, it is basically impossible to obtain a hundred thousand year spirit ring with the seventh spirit ring. The success rate is too low. Among all the Titled Douluo he knows, there is no one whose seventh spirit ring is a hundred thousand year spirit ring.

A hundred thousand year spirit ring, how can you get it just by wanting it?

If it were so easy to hunt a hundred thousand year soul beast, then everyone would have one by now.

Among the Titled Douluo he knew, there seemed to be only three people who possessed a hundred thousand year spirit ring, two of whom were in the Spirit Hall, and the other was Tang Chen, the old leader of the Haotian Sect.

Apart from those three people, the remaining Titled Douluo, the oldest ninth soul ring is only 90,000 years old, and most of them are around 80,000 or 70,000 years old.
