Chapter 160 Changes in Tiandou Palace

At the city gate, the guards were wearing iron armor and holding spears. They stood as straight as pine trees, with vigilance and determination in their eyes.

On the city wall, there are many archery towers, and the archers are ready.

Qian Renxue looked at the waiting city from afar.

“As expected, it seems that they are already prepared.”

"Well. Let's go directly to the city and see what tricks they want to play."

Xiao Han and Qian Renxue had already taken precautions.

As they approached Tiandou City, Qian Renxue dispersed.

Guang Ling Douluo, Demon-Conquering Douluo, Snake Spear Douluo, Porpoise Douluo and a group of masters from Wuhun Palace have quietly entered the city.

Only Qian Renxue and Xiao Han were left on the carriage, as well as a coachman pretending to be a master of Wuhun Palace.

With Xiao Han here, even a powerful Titled Douluo-level person cannot pose a threat to Qian Renxue.

The coachman drove the carriage straight to the city gate.

"Stop, routine inspection!"

"How dare you! Open your dog eyes and take a good look. This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's car."

"Your Majesty There is an order that all passing pedestrians and vehicles must be inspected, even the prince and the prince are no exception.”

Qian Renxue changed back to Xue Qinghe's costume.

Hearing the sound outside, Xue Qinghe stepped out of the carriage.

Seeing this, the guards immediately saluted him.

“See His Highness the Crown Prince.”

Xue Qinghe looked at the guards and smiled:

"Did something happen in Tiandou City? Why did the security suddenly become so tight?"

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, we don't know much about it. We are just following His Majesty's orders."
< br>"I see. It seems that I have to return to the palace quickly."

Xue Qinghe got on the carriage after saying that.

The guards quickly got out of the way, and the carriage went straight into the city.

As soon as the vehicle drove a hundred meters away, the leader of the guards ordered:

"Go to the palace quickly to report to His Majesty that His Royal Highness has returned to the city!"

"Yes!"

It turns out that these guards are all close associates of Emperor Xue Ye. After receiving the order, they went to the palace to report the prince Xue Qinghe as soon as he returned to the city.

~~~~~~~

Xiao Han and Xue Qinghe sat in the carriage and drove towards the palace.

The carriage passed through the streets of Tiandou City, and the surrounding scene was very different from the past.

On both sides of the street, most of the originally bustling shops had their doors closed, and the few that were open seemed empty.

There are few pedestrians on the street, and they are all in a hurry. It seems that everyone has their own thoughts and does not want to stay longer.

The patrolling guard team shuttles through the streets.

They wore silver armor, held sharp swords, walked vigorously, and their eyes were as sharp as eagles, scanning the surroundings from time to time.

The number of these guards is several times greater than usual.

The entire Tiandou City seemed to be shrouded in an invisible layer of tension.

Xiao Han joked:

“It seems like they are waiting for you to throw yourself into a trap.”

"Then we will use a strategy to catch them off guard."

"Okay, I will help you take down the Tiandou Empire today."

The two looked at each other and smiled, showing no fear. Continue towards the palace.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the palace.

Xiao Han and Xue Qinghe got off the carriage and walked into the palace.

The moment they stepped into the palace, both of them could clearly feel the chilling atmosphere in the air, as if every wisp of wind carried a sharp blade, cutting through the already tense nerves. In the palace, all the familiar faces of the guards have disappeared, replaced by new faces that are cold and vigilant.

They stood like sculptures, with blazing eyes, monitoring every move of every person who entered.

"It seems that Xue Ye has changed all the guards in the palace."

Xue Qinghe said to Xiao Han in a low voice. Although his tone remained calm, there was a trace of difficulty in his eyes. Perceived worry.

"All my people have been transferred away. They are all people I have laid out in Tiandou Palace for many years. Every one of them swears loyalty to me."

"I'm here, don't worry."

Xiao Han's words were like a tranquilizer, which slightly eased Qian Renxue's nervous mood.

The two of them walked cautiously through the steps and arrived at the square of the palace.

Directly in front of the square, Emperor Xue Ye sat on a high dragon chair, dressed in luxurious imperial robes, with a stern face and deep eyes, as if he had been waiting here for a long time.

All around were densely packed royal guards, armed with weapons and ready in formation.

Countless pairs of eyes stared closely at Xiao Han and Xue Qinghe.

Xue Qinghe took a few steps forward without fear.

"My son, when I see my father, I wonder why my father is making such a big show of things?"

Emperor Xue Ye’s eyes stayed on Xue Qinghe for a moment, and then he spoke slowly, his voice With unquestionable majesty:

"Qinghe, where have you been during this time?"

Xue Qinghe's heart trembled, but his expression remained calm:

"My son just went to the Star Forest, father. Why are you so nervous? Or does the father have doubts about his son? "

Emperor Xue Ye's eyes became sharper, as if he wanted to penetrate Xue Qinghe's disguise.

"I do have a lot of puzzles. Tiandou City has been in a turmoil recently, and rumors are spreading everywhere, all claiming that you have colluded with Wuhun Palace and have evil intentions. What is your explanation for this?"
< br>

When Xue Qinghe heard the words, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and a cold light flashed in his eyes:

"Father, do you believe these words? My son is devoted to the country, how can he have nothing to do with Wuhun Palace? Something to do with it? This is just some malicious slander.”

“Really?”

Emperor Xue Ye obviously didn’t believe what Xue Qinghe said.

His eyes fell on Xiao Han, who was standing next to Xue Qinghe.

In his impression, Xiao Han had never knelt down to worship him, and this time was no exception, which made him secretly unhappy.

But now is an extraordinary period, not a time for competition.

Emperor Xue Ye said with a fake smile:

"Xiao Han, the last time I saw you was at the Soul Master Competition. I heard that you already have a hundred thousand Year soul ring, I have never seen a red 100,000-year soul ring. Release your soul ring and let me broaden my horizons."

Xiao Han and Xue Qinghe looked at each other and understood instantly. Understand the intentions of Emperor Xue Ye.

The value of a hundred thousand year soul ring is self-evident. The two hundred thousand year soul beasts in the center of the Star Dou Forest were hunted. They must have gone not just for the hundred thousand year soul bones, but more likely to obtain the soul rings.

A Titled Douluo-level expert does not need a soul ring.

Xiao Han's seventh soul ring has already reached the 100,000-year level. With the speed at which his soul power is increasing, he is most likely to absorb one of the 100,000-year soul rings.

If there are two hundred thousand year soul rings among the soul rings he released, then everything Xiao Wu said is the truth.

Xiao Han nodded to Xue Qinghe beside him, then looked around and said with a smile:

"It seems that you have believed what Tang San and the spirit beast said. Where are those two turtles? Are they hiding again?"

"How dare you be rude to His Majesty!"

br>
A Contra-level guard next to Emperor Xue Ye scolded loudly.

"Who do you think you are? You dare to accuse me!"

Before Xiao Han finished speaking, cold murderous aura was released from his eyes, and an invisible pressure was exerted there. On the famous Soul Douluo.

Immediately afterwards, the man knelt on his knees, and a mouthful of blood spat out from his mouth.
