The battle in the courtyard soon subsided. The eight guards were missing. Eminem sat on the steps in front of the castle. Eminem was thinking. Yes, thinking.

Eminem was thinking about a very simple question. It was clear that he was being beaten when he was fighting. Why the enemy was so angry? Eminem couldn't figure it out, so he asked bubwang in a voice.

Buwang's answer was that the enemy was jealous of your "peerless face". Amu was stunned for a long time, scratching his head, and the second question appeared, what is peerless face?

In the banquet hall of the castle, dozens of candlelight reflect here. The old prince sits at the top of the table, while Su Xiao is diagonally opposite him, while the other seats are his family members.

The old man was cruel enough to know that Prince Lilin would send someone to assassinate him, but he still left his family members in the castle. All the family members of the old prince had holy blood.

The curse of immortality is a curse that can be inherited. It is not a curse that forcibly destroys the physiological structure of human beings, but a curse that is silent and spreads like a plague.

The horror of this curse lies in that as long as the saints want to keep their consciousness and not become the white spoony who only knows how to confess to the gods, they will continue to absorb vitality and maim ordinary people. Once the ordinary people die, the end of saints will come.

Because of this, saints will try their best to control the number of offspring. When the number of saints is too large, they will kill each other in secret. This is the iron rule set by the first generation of saints.

This dinner, no, it should be night time. It is silent and depressing. There is only a wooden cup with scarlet liquid on the table in front of the old prince.

The old prince will never be stationed in his own manor, because of the scarlet liquid in the cup, some things, once exposed to the sun, he can only hide in the dark forever.

Soon, his family members left the table politely. After all, Su Xiao, a distant relative, was present.

"Kukulin white night, I have never heard that saints can be reborn from death. This is the price of hunting God. No one can avoid it."

The old prince leans on the chair and rubs the small skull in his hand gently with his thumb. There are two skulls in total, which are strung together. They are all covered with paste. This is the skull of the two wives of the old prince. It has been changed into this size by his magic secret technique and has been carried with him all the time.

Seeing this scene, bubuwang, who squatted beside Su Xiao's feet, was shocked. He had seen the dish of walnuts, the dish of hand strings, but he had seen the dish of his wife for the first time, and he had also made the dish to the skull for wrapping.

"Nothing is impossible. Besides, as I said before, there is only a certain probability of success."

"So, in order to prevent you from killing my family completely, it should be stated in advance that even if I agree to confer the Duke on you, the other four Dukes will not agree. They are not of Holy Origin and are not entitled to confer the Duke."

The old prince is very clear about the current situation. Even if his family members rush in, the result can only be slaughtered. There is no other possibility. Unless the imperial army is transferred, it can win.

"Oh."

Su Xiao is not surprised. He didn't kill the old prince before. In fact, that's the reason. The Duke's position is not to kill and inherit.

As for the fact that the old prince just said that he could not confer the title of Prince Su Xiao, there is no problem. In the final analysis, the Sierra empire is in the hands of the saints. They have stood at the top of the pyramid and will not allow ordinary people to enter into their power. This is the basis of their survival. If not, they will become street mice and everyone will fight. The case can refer to the ghost on the ghost land People.

"I have said that I want to be directly canonized as a Duke?"

Su Xiao's purpose is not to ask for a title, but to ask for real power, enough to reach the real power of other empire's high-level officials.

If the time and space hub is installed in the city of Aram, it will only be in the hands of the Saint King. However, it is too difficult to reach the Saint King.

"So you want me to be your puppet?"

The old prince said it casually. It seemed to be a joke, but in fact, it was a test.

"It's the stupidest choice to make an old man a puppet."

"Then what do you mean?"

"According to what standard is the rank of the king of saints evaluated?"

“!”

The old prince's eyes gradually sharpened. Instead, he was so angry that he smiled.

"Kukulin white night, we undead can control the Sierra Empire to this day, just because we are united enough..."

Speaking of this, the old prince couldn't go on, because Su Xiao looked at his eyes at this time, which was clearly: "can you not fart?"

"Well, the contradiction between me and Duke Liling is just a game between old friends, just like this."

The old prince clenched his fist, and his eyes were like ghosts trying to swallow life alive.

"I'm not interested in the crown, but I can work with you on other matters. I'm tired of the right to be a duke."

The old prince's words gave Su Xiao an important clue about what saints were fighting for each other, even breaking the balance of power.

Greedy, fickle, and no call when his face turned. This is the most intuitive feeling that the old prince gave Su Xiao. As for the saint who lived too long, he was tired of the world. From the performance of the old Duke, the old man was not only not tired of it, but also enjoyed it. For some Saint Americans, immortality is a misfortune, but for the old prince, immortality is what he wants.

"Artifacts? Weapons? Or some ability? "

Su Xiao's words, let the old prince gently rub the temple, the unexpected guest he met, not only strong and monstrous, but also with a terrible IQ.

"It's a gem. It's said that thousands of years ago, a group of explorers found a corpse from the abyss. In the hand of the corpse, they held the gem."

"Jewels? Specific characteristics. "

“……”

The old prince was silent for a moment. After he thought that Su Xiao was not a saint, he took out a piece of cloth from his arms and drew something with blue dye.

The old prince put the cloth on the table and pushed it casually to Su Xiao. From his attitude, it can be seen that the information he is about to disclose is not a secret, at least not a secret for the saints.

"It is unique, only it can inhibit the stripping of the undead, or it can be embedded in the soul."

Su Xiao doesn't care what the old prince is talking about. At this time, he wants to cut the Dragon flash into the storage space, but considering the concealment of the inlay effect, he is relieved.

Su Xiao basically judged that the two sides met in this way. Even if they cooperated, the old prince preferred to use him.

Su Xiao doesn't care about this. He just makes use of each other. There's nothing to complain about. What he cares about is why the old man took out a rag with a picture of the stone of the ghost shadow, or why the stone of the ghost shadow appeared in the world.

So far, Su Xiao has found three ghost shadow stones. If the old prince's words are true, this is the fourth one. When Su Xiao gathers five ghost shadow stones, he will have a chance to gain the ghost shadow ability.

What's more, the old prince said just now that the stone of the ghost shadow is held in his hand by a skeleton. Is it possible that the skeleton is the skeleton of the first destroyer?

If so, is it possible for the first destroyer to leave something on his bones? Once there is something left, Su Xiao can find the skeleton and make a lot of money.

Of course, the old prince's words are true and false. We need to judge carefully whether the information is true or not. But the old Duke is a smart man. Now Su Xiao can kill him at any time. Lying at this time will only make him die faster.

"I happened to be looking for something."

Su Xiao smiles.

"Is it true that our meeting is not only my luck, but also yours?"

The old prince smiled more and more kindly. In his right hand, there was the skull of his two wives. The pulp of the skull reflected the warmth under the candlelight.

"Yes, but cooperation needs trust."

Su Xiao lit a cigarette, and there was no sincerity in his words.

"Of course I trust you."

The old prince said this without hesitation. Under the candlelight, they looked at each other.

The change of the old prince's attitude was very interesting. At the beginning, he wanted to stabilize Su Xiao. Whenever he had a chance, he would mobilize the army to eliminate Su Xiao. But after negotiation, he decided not to do so, because it was an opportunity to get rid of the curse. He could live forever and not bear the cost of immortality.

"Wow"

the cry came from a saint Lori who was eavesdropping. She was frightened to cry by the conversation between Su Xiao and her husband. For some reason, Su Xiao and her husband were both laughing, but the saint Lori was scared, from the heart.

There are five Dukes in the kingdom of Sierra, all of whom have lived for many years. It's so dangerous that Xi dare not come here. The situation here is not only the strength of Xi, but also her wisdom.

Today, Adrian Alfred, one of the five dukes, made a huge mistake. He shouldn't have dinner with an alchemist.
