"Damn Yang Zhen!" Murong Zi gritted her teeth in her heart. Although this banquet was held in the imperial palace, it was all organized by Yun Qin Wang Yang Zhen. No wonder that before the banquet, the identities of these seven great figures from Xuan Valley were not clear. It's likely that Yang Zhen had already defected to Ouyang Dianhua's side and actively helped him gather beautiful women!

  Ouyang Yuhua's arrival immediately drew the attention of everyone in the room, and even the emperor slightly stood up and nodded in acknowledgement.

  Ouyang Yelian's gaze, however, fell on Lin Ming in the first instant, with a hint of playful smile.

  Seeing Ou Yang Di Hua's gaze, Lin Ming slightly furrowed his brow. This gaze was clearly that of a superior looking at an inferior, with a hint of subtle mockery and pity.

  Ouyang Di walked slowly to the front of the stage, her eyes casually sweeping across Bai Jingyun, Wang Yuheng and Qin Xingxuan, pausing briefly on each before moving away.

  It was this slight pause that made Bai Jingyun anxious and worried, and to make matters worse, Yu Rong was also there!

  Qin Xingxuan wasn't afraid, she was already a core disciple of the Seventh Mystic Martial Mansion, although her status was lower than Ouyang Dihua's. However, just relying on this Sixth-Rank Heaven's Gift reputation alone could make Ouyang Dihua behave herself, after all Qin Xingxuan might also become the personal disciple of one of the elders in the Seventh Mystic Valley in the future.

  But Wang Yuhan was different, in front of Ouyang Dihua, she had no background to protect herself at all.

  Ouyang Qianhua cleared her throat and said, "I'm delighted to be in Tianyun Country, and I'm thrilled to meet the elites of Tianyun Country tonight..."

  "Today I came to Tianyun Country, mainly to take a look at the development of Tianyun Country and meet some young heroes in the country."

  "Besides, Tianyun Guo has been promoted to Qi Xuan Shi and is old and returned to his hometown. This half year's Qi Xuan Shi will be temporarily replaced by me."

  Ouyang Qianhua said this, and Bai Jingyun only felt a dizziness in front of her eyes. Ouyang Qianhua was actually going to be the Seventh Mystic Envoy of Tianyun Country!?!

  This... this is absolutely terrible news!!

  She almost anticipated that the next six months would be a nightmare for all beautiful girls in Tianyun City!

  Somewhat famous girls, such as Murong Zi and Wang Yuhuan, will probably become Ou Yang Jiehua's targets. Can't hide!

  They were too famous, and it's possible that before Ou Yang Zhi Hua came to Tian Yun Country, he had already set his sights on them. And Mu Rong Zi, Wang Yu Han had already become his prey!

  In the corridor outside the banquet hall, Murong Zi also heard Ouyang Qianhua's opening remarks. She was very clear that hiding had no meaning anymore, and even Ouyang Qianhua came to Tianyun Country as the Seventh Mystic Envoy specifically for them.

  "Murong Zi gritted her teeth and muttered to herself: 'You dare to move me, Di Se Lang? I'll cut off your lifeblood, and we'll both perish together!!'"

  Crown Prince Yang Lin heard the news, his face didn't look too good either. He naturally knew that this banquet was hosted by his tenth brother, Yun Qin Wang! The welcoming party for Ouyang Dihua was hosted by Yang Zhen, what does this mean? Obviously, Yang Zhen had already established a connection with Ouyang Dihua ahead of time!

  Today, Yang Zhenhui invited so many beautiful daughters of the major families to the banquet without revealing Ou Yang Dihua's identity, offending so many families. It was all because Ou Yang Dihua would take over as the Seventh Xuan Envoy, and Yang Zhenhui found a powerful backer in doing so.

  Moreover, Yang Lin also knew that Zhang Guanyu and Yang Zhen had been getting along very well recently, and without a doubt, the two of them had formed an alliance. The person who prompted this alliance to form was naturally Lin Ming.

  Lin Ming is the common enemy of Yang Zhen and Zhang Guanyu!

  This is Ou Yang Di Hua. Ten years ago, she was invited by Zhang Guan Yu to be their backing mountain. Only no one knows what price Zhang Guan Yu paid for this.

  Yang Lin took a deep breath and gained Lin Ming's support, thinking he had already won half the battle. But now he realized Zhang Guanyu and Yang Zhen's tactics, who turned the tables after initially losing a move.

  Neither Cheung Yiu-yee nor Yeung Chun are people who would easily admit defeat. How could they possibly sit back and wait for death just because of the emergence of Lam Ming?

  Lin Ming noticed the change in Yang Lin's expression, as well as Zhang Guanyu and Yang Zhenchun's smug faces. Suddenly, he also understood why Ouyang Qianhua had come here, and why she had looked at him with a teasing gaze, like a cat watching an old mouse, as soon as she entered the door.

  "So it's like this...... when I'm a mouse......" Lin Ming's expression didn't change, still calmly sitting in the chair.

  At this moment, Zhang Guanyu walked towards the prince with a smile on his face and a fan in hand. Lin Ming was sitting very close to the prince, and Zhang Guanyu's gaze fell on Lin Ming's body. The smile in his eyes was similar to that of Ouyang Dianhua, both having the same mischievous look of a cat playing with a mouse. If there was any difference, it was that Zhang Guanyu's eyes had a hint of hidden murderous intent.

  "Your Highness." Zhang Guanyu slightly bowed.

  "Master Zhang." Although he couldn't wait to kill this Zhang Guanyu in his heart, Yang Lin still kept a smile on his face.

  "Your Highness, it seems that Miss Lan Yunyue is currently residing in the Prince's Manor. Master Ouyang wishes to pay his respects to her and requests an audience. What are your thoughts on this matter?"

  Zhang Guanyu lowered his voice, but Lin Ming was right next to the crown prince, how could he not hear?

  Although Lan Yunyue was no longer related to Lin Ming, Zhang Guanyu repeatedly used this matter to disgust Lin Ming, attempting to strike at Lin Ming's martial heart, but it only made Lin Ming feel like a green-headed fly buzzing around him, annoying beyond endurance.

  Yang Lin's face changed slightly upon hearing Zhang Guanyu's words, but he immediately regained his warm smile. "I'm truly sorry, I've already sent Miss Lan away, and as for where she went, I have no idea."

  Zhang Guanyu smiled, "Your Highness, since I've come to ask you for someone today, I naturally have accurate information. I don't like beating around the bush, so I'll give you some sincere advice: Lan Yunyue is crucial to Mr. Ouyang's cultivation. Mr. Ouyang has already made it clear that he has no intention of participating in the struggle for the throne and only focuses on his cultivation. If Your Highness hands over Lan Yunyue, then Mr. Ouyang will remain neutral in the struggle between you and Prince Yun. What are your thoughts, Your Highness?"

  Zhang Guanyu said this, Lin Ming's face sank, and he couldn't help but admire Zhang Guanyu's cunning and ruthlessness.

  He wants to drive a wedge between himself and the prince.

  And this move of sowing discord was chosen at a very clever time!

  The current situation is that the Crown Prince has to face this enemy, Ou Yang Jie Hua, which was triggered by Lin Ming. If it weren't for Lin Ming and Zhang Guan Yu being enemies, then Ou Yang Jie Hua wouldn't have appeared, allowing the Tenth Imperial Son to gain the support of a future Seven Mystics Envoy, which is a huge blow to the Crown Prince's power!

  That is to say, the prince found Lin Ming as a helper, but not only did he not benefit, but also followed him into disaster.

  If I had met some people, they would have kicked Lin Ming away long ago.

  At this moment, Zhang Guanyu threw out Ou Yang's neutral bait, but let the prince know that it was a divisive plan, yet he couldn't refuse because Ou Yang's intimidation was too great! The prince didn't dare to disobey him!

  Zhang Guanyu's move was ruthless and poisonous, he slowly isolated Lin Ming.

  Zhu Yan is the best example, Zhu Yan's current situation is so miserable because of Lin Ming's strength, which made the tenth prince and the Zhu family dare not disobey, so Zhu Yan was directly expelled from the family!

  Now, Zhang Guanyu is dealing with Lin Ming in the same way, moving out Ou Yang Huahua, he wants to make Lin Ming not only fail the assessment of the Seven Xuanwu Prefectures, but also lose the protection of the crown prince, and ultimately end up like Zhu Yan!

  After Zhang Guanyu said this, Yang Lin could no longer maintain his composure. What Lin Ming thought of, he had also thought of.

  "Zhang Guanyu! This treacherous little man!" Yang Lin cursed in his heart, and he couldn't help but glance at Lin Ming.

  Lin Ming said calmly: "Lan Yunyue was originally saved by the Crown Prince, so I have no right to interfere with your decision, Your Highness. Please make your own decision."

  Yang Lin took a deep breath, and his usually calm self was now sweating in the palms of his hands. He had a faint premonition that this would be the most important decision of his life - whether to continue standing on Lin Ming's side or surrender to the current Tianyun Country's Seven Mysteries Envoy, Ouyang Dihua!

  After a silence of ten breaths, Yang Lin said: "When my power was not as good as tenth brother's, my martial arts were not as good as tenth brother's, my wealth was not as good as tenth brother's, and my influence was also not as good as tenth brother's, Brother Lin chose to stand by my side, supporting me when I was in trouble. The kindness of sending charcoal in snowy weather is etched in my heart. Since ancient times, many emperors have been heroes, I may not be suitable for being an emperor, but if one day I can ascend to the throne, I will definitely be a benevolent ruler who regards his ministers as his hands and feet, and his people as his parents."

  Yang Lin's words were extremely out of place, but he still said them. Lin Ming's heart stirred slightly, and he too had not expected Yang Lin to suddenly say such things.

  In this case, Yang Lin can still stand by his side to resist Ouyang Dihua who has become the Seven Fantasies Envoy. With this, Yang Lin is a man worth befriending.

  When a ruler regards his ministers as hands and feet, the ministers regard the ruler as their heart and stomach. When a ruler regards his ministers as weeds or pests, the ministers regard the ruler as an enemy or foe.

  Lin Ming had made up his mind to help Yang Lin ascend to the throne, Tianyun Country was Lin Ming's hometown, his family were all here, he naturally hoped that the country could have a good monarch.

  "Oh? So Your Highness has no intention of handing over Lan Yunyue?" Zhang Guanyu asked with a smile.

  At this time, behind Zhang Guanyu's back, Ouyang Qianhua also looked over here with a smile on his face, but his smile had a few shades of coldness.

  "The king said, Miss Lan is not in the mansion!"

  "Heh heh, Your Highness says so, but dare you let someone search for it?"

  "How dare you!"

  "Heh heh, I wouldn't dare search for it, but what if this is Master Ouyang's order?"

  Zhang Guanyu said this, the crown prince's face changed, Ouyang Qiuhua wanted to search him, he really had no way!

  At this time, the smell of gunpowder in the air was already very strong, and the whole banquet hall noticed it here.

  Just then, Lin Ming suddenly spoke up and said: "Zhang Gongzi, I suddenly remembered that we still have a duel between us."

  Lin Ming's idea was simple, since Zhang Guanyu had formed an alliance to deal with him, he would take the initiative and duel tonight, first eliminating Zhang Guanyu, so that even if he had any more tricks up his sleeve, he wouldn't be able to use them.

  Alright, Lan Yunyue is just a plot device, the real conflict has nothing to do with Lan MM, I shouldn't have used her, hmm, write a declaration of war, attach it to the single chapter, start the explosion at dawn, please support everyone.
