Volume 1 Chapter 724 Undercover Agent

After an hour of battle, the seven of them drank like immortals, staggered from side to side, unable to recognize the north, south, east, and west. However, Kong Yun sat on the table peacefully, seeming to be fine. In this world, his cultivation base was formidable, so his alcohol tolerance was naturally high.

With Kong Yun's cultivation, drinking these little fellows wasn't a problem at all. After three rounds of wine and five flavors of dishes, the people who came to attend the banquet gradually dispersed. At this time, Ximen Hong walked over and said, "Today, my brother is in the limelight. I really envy him."

"Don't make fun of me. You know how uncomfortable I feel. You made a woman look like this." Kong Yun sighed.

"You're not at a disadvantage either. How is it? Is her waist thin enough?" Ximen Hong smiled wretchedly. "Try it yourself." Ximen Hong waved his hand, "I don't dare."

"I'm not joking anymore. Our family's old master invites us." Ximen Hong made a gesture that was very formal. Kong Yun didn't say anything and gave it to him.

Kong Yun didn't have any accidents this time. Kong Yun knew that the Ximen Clan's Clan Master had invited him over, so he would definitely meet him.

Kong Yun went in to take a look. Not only was it the Ximen Clan Master, there was also Xuanyuan Feng.

"I wonder if the Ximen Clan's Clan Master has invited me over. Is there anything I can do for you?" Kong Yun bowed politely.

"To be honest, the Third Prince and I have received news that the Emperor's deadline is approaching. We plan to arrange it in advance." After the Ximen Clan Master finished speaking, he looked at the Third Prince and found nothing unusual.

Then he continued, "We intend to let you go undercover in the palace and hide under the Emperor." Kong Yun thought for a moment. His undercover agent was very suitable.

"We will send you into the palace tomorrow and secretly arrange for you to be the Emperor's bodyguard. Your mission is only to inquire about the news. Don't worry about anything else." The Ximen Clan's Clan Master said solemnly. Kong Yun nodded.

Finally, Xuanyuan Feng added, "Kong Yun, your life is important. If something is wrong, retreat immediately." Kong Yun was a little touched at this moment and nodded.

Just as Kong Yun and Xuanyuan Feng walked out of the Ximen Clan Master's room, the Third Prince turned to look at Kong Yun and solemnly said, "If you have the chance, please protect my Father Emperor." The Third Prince bowed to Kong Yun and left.

Xuanyuan Feng was still a filial prince, something Kong Yun hadn't expected.

That night, Kong Yun was cultivating in his room. A figure landed outside Kong Yun's door. He gently unlocked the door bolt and slowly walked into Kong Yun's room. A short sword appeared in his hand and slowly walked to Kong Yun's bed. A sword stabbed into Kong Yun's heart.

At this moment, a guard saw the sword stabbing into Kong Yun's heart and shouted, "There's an assassin."

This figure instantly left this place. When the guards arrived, Kong Yun was already dead.

Within the secret room

Ximen Hong walked in and saw Kong Yun cultivating. "You're already dead. Do you know why you're still cultivating there?" Ximen Hong laughed.

Kong Yun glared at Ximen Hong and said with a smile, "Didn't you guys kill me?" The two of them laughed loudly. The news of Kong Yun's death spread throughout the main city the next day. The Third Prince was furious and ordered a thorough investigation of the murderer. The Ximen Clan's Clan Master dispatched competent personnel to investigate this matter. The whole city was in a state of panic.

At this moment, Kong Yun entered the imperial palace and arrived beside the emperor. He saw an old man sitting on a dragon throne made of gold. Although his body was thin, his eyes were sharp. His entire body emitted a kind of pressure. This was the Emperor.

Kong Yun quietly stood on the Emperor's side and began to act as the Emperor's bodyguard.

Suddenly, the Emperor glanced at Kong Yun. Kong Yun was shocked and immediately adjusted. After reading it, the emperor corrected the memorial.

"All of you go first." Just as Kong Yun was about to leave, the Emperor pointed and said, "Stay here. Help me see the memorial." Kong Yun said respectfully, "Follow the decree."

Kong Yun stayed by the side and waited quietly.

"Whose people are you?" Although he knew that the emperor had almost discovered him, he was still very shocked when he heard this. Kong Yun thought that he didn't leave any flaws.

Kong Yun knew that he had already dressed up. Since he was alone, the Emperor had no intention of making things big. "I'm from the Third Prince."

"What orders did he give you?" The Emperor did not look at Kong Yun, but asked as he read the memorial.

"The Third Prince already knows that His Majesty's body is being destroyed by poison every day. Tell me to protect His Majesty's safety." The Emperor's hand trembled as he put down the memorial in his hand.

"You must be Kong Yun. If I'm not mistaken, you're still an outsider cultivator." Kong Yun's expression changed drastically. This was the second time he recognized his true identity.

"You have Essence Qi in your body, but our people in the Netherworld have no Essence Qi. Our Essence Qi has long been deprived by the heavens." The Emperor closed his eyes, his eyes filled with unwillingness.

"Your talent is very good, and your luck is very strong." The Emperor began to praise Kong Yun.

Kong Yun nodded slightly. The shock in his heart did not lessen. Could it be that one day, Kong Yun had heard such news more than once?

"You must be the son of Heaven's Choice, right?" After the Emperor finished speaking, he glanced at Kong Yun. Kong Yun's face was shocked and his heart was filled with monstrous waves.

"How do you know?" Kong Yun started to be on guard. He had never been seen so thoroughly before.

"In the past, I saw the same person as you. That person's luck was slightly weaker than yours, but there was not much difference. That person was the chosen son of heaven, but it was already ~" The Emperor's eyes were filled with regret.

Today's shock followed one after another, making Kong Yun unable to guard against it.

"The heavens will not tolerate the chosen one. Although our continent has been abandoned by the heavenly dao, it has a long history. In our history, it has been recorded that none of the chosen ones have survived until now." The Emperor looked at Kong Yun with regret.

"Right now, the heavens will not target you. When you enter the Undying Immortal Realm and reach the Divine Realm, you will be targeted by the heavens. At that time, you will understand what I am saying." The Emperor saw that Kong Yun had yet to recover from his shock. He continued.

"I give you some advice. Don't be too anxious to upgrade your cultivation. First, compact your foundation. Only in this way can you have the chance to meet the challenges that lie ahead." The Emperor said slowly, observing Kong Yun's expression at the same time.

After Kong Yun regained his senses, he looked at the Emperor and gave a big bow, "Thank you for your information."

"You're welcome. You'll know about this sooner or later." The Emperor waved his hand.

Perhaps Third Brother will rely on his luck to obtain the throne. Since that's the case, then help him. The Emperor nodded as soon as this thought came into his mind.

"Someone, send a decree, order Liu Feng to be the commander of the Imperial Palace's Imperial Guards, commanding all the Imperial Guards in the Imperial Palace." Kong Yun was shocked by the Emperor's decision. This was equivalent to handing over the throne to the Third Prince. Could it be that the Emperor wanted Xuanyuan Feng to take over the throne? The moment he thought of it, Kong Yun recognized him.

After that, Kong Yun and the Emperor had a long conversation.

Although he had become the commander of the Imperial Guards, Kong Yun still chose to stay by the Emperor's side. He wanted to protect the emperor further.

The news of Liu Feng becoming the Commander of the Imperial Guards quickly spread throughout the Four Great Families and the princes' ears, stirring up a shocking wave.

The Third Prince knew about this and thought for a long time in his study. He never thought of any reason why the Emperor would make such a decision. At this moment, the Ximen Clan's Clan Master arrived at the Prince's Mansion.

"Your Highness, I really admire Kong Yun for being the commander of the Imperial Army. Isn't that equivalent to giving the throne to you?" The Ximen Clan's Clan Head was in a good mood. When that time came, the Ximen Clan would naturally be in a good mood.

The Third Prince's expression was sad. "I didn't help Kong Yun. He was the one who pawned it."

"What? It's not your fault." This sentence also shocked the Ximen Clan Master.

The next day, Xuanyuan Feng went to the Imperial Palace to see the Emperor. The Emperor's expression became worse and worse. Xuanyuan Feng said many words of concern. Before leaving, Kong Yun took the opportunity to give Xuanyuan Feng a look. Xuanyuan Feng instantly understood and happily returned to the manor.

That night, news of a critical illness came from the palace. The three princes and the ministers gathered at the Emperor's dormitory.

From beginning to end, the Emperor did not open his eyes and died peacefully.

The news spread throughout the country when the emperor was three minutes away.

However, when the Emperor was in Bin Tian, he did not leave any last words, nor did he say who he would make the Monarch.

At this moment, the ministers began to discuss fiercely. From this aspect, one could tell who was who. Xuanyuan Feng was watching everything from the main hall. Kong Yun ordered the Imperial Guards to defend the palace and not allow anyone to enter or leave.

After doing all of this, Kong Yun walked up to the main hall. "The emperor has an order to make the third prince Xuanyuan Feng the next emperor." Kong Yun took out the emperor's decree with the emperor's name and imperial seal written on it.

After saying that, Kong Yun walked over to Xuanyuan Feng and bowed, "Your Majesty, our entire Imperial Army obeys His Majesty's orders." Kong Yun gave Xuanyuan Feng the Tiger Talisman that controlled the imperial guards.

When the ministers saw this scene, they were thoroughly shocked. Those who supported Xuanyuan Feng were extremely happy in their hearts. In the future, they would definitely rise higher and higher. Those who supported others would instantly turn pale. They knew that they would be able to live through the night.

The eldest prince and the second prince's faces were ashen. They knew that they would undoubtedly die tonight.

At this moment, Kong Yun walked in front of the First Prince and the Second Prince and looked at the two of them. "Please follow me, there is someone who wants to see you."

Kong Yun brought the two of them to the Imperial Clan's important place. The elders looked at the two princes and nodded. Kong Yun knew that there was nothing else to do here, so he turned around and left.

Kong Yun hadn't stopped yet. He walked to the Emperor's corpse and used a secret technique to save the Emperor.

"Your Majesty, the things you have told me have been completed." The Emperor's expression was very happy. He patted Kong Yun's shoulder, indicating that Kong Yun had done well. At the same time, he knew that he was relieved.
