35: Head to the Jinghong Empire and lay an ambush!

"Are you going alone?"

Su Qingtian's expression was somewhat grave, and the people in the hall exchanged glances, all looking somewhat doubtful.

Su Chen's strength was only at the Soul Transformation Early Stage, or at least that's what he claimed himself, although no one believed it.

But even if his combat power was comparable to the Soul Transformation Peak, or even the Void Refining stage, it seemed meaningless.

The Seventh Prince did not lack this one Void Refining combat power.

Su Chen said calmly: "Rest assured, with me here, the Seventh Prince will definitely seize the succession; no one will be able to take it away."

Hearing this, everyone was shocked again.

The battlefield of the Nine Dragons War for the Heir was at the Void Refining stage; could Su Chen sweep across the heroes?

Su Qingtian thought for a moment, and he finally nodded and said: "Okay."

Now he trusted this son very much; Su Chen was very mysterious and powerful, definitely not just at the Soul Transformation Stage, but he had never said it, so Su Qingtian did not point it out.

Plus, he still had that mysterious and powerful Revered Master; regardless of whether the Seventh Prince could successfully seize the succession in the end, at least he himself would not be in trouble.

The Su Family soon discussed it, and in the end, only Su Chen left with Lin Jin, while the Su Family kept everything as usual.

Outside Bright Moon City.

Three dragon horse carriages were parked there, and passersby had eyes full of terror; the unique markings on the carriages let them recognize that these were the carriages of the Jinghong Empire's royal family.

Su Chen and Lin Jin walked out from the city, and looking at the calm-faced youth beside him, Lin Jin's eyes were full of confusion.

Can he really help me seize the succession?

Thinking of the firm tone Su Qingtian used when leaving, Lin Jin began to feel a bit lost; could it be that Su Qingtian was playing with him?

The aura on Su Chen's body was only at the Soul Transformation Stage; what influence could such a person have on the war for the heir?

The struggle for the crown prince was not merely a simple slaughter among the various princes; it was divided into two stages.

The first stage was before the war for the heir officially began, where the various princes would try their best to reduce the number of personnel of their competitors.

And when the war for the heir truly began, that was when the real great battle would start; at that time, Your Majesty of Jinghong would personally preside over it, letting the experts under the various princes fight.

Whoever could win in the end would be the crown prince.

This was not just a test of one's own strength, but also highly valued strategy and wisdom.

Among the nine princes, although the First Prince had the strongest strength, the Second Prince and Third Prince's strength only differed by two Void Refining experts.

If they formed a temporary alliance, the threat to the First Prince would also be very great.

And now, there were only seven days left until the war for the heir, yet he only had two usable people under his command.

In this battle, the chances of winning were slim.

Lin Jin didn't count Su Chen in at all; in his view, the Su Family pushing Su Chen to him was probably just because they didn't want the relationship to be too awkward.

But he didn't blame them; after all, his winning chances were too low, and even with the Su Family's help, it was the same, unable to change the final situation.

He also didn't want to cause the Su Family to be exterminated because of himself.

Lin Jin couldn't help but sigh in his heart; in just over ten years, Su Qingtian had become so strange, becoming so worldly.

If he was unwilling to help him, he could just refuse directly; why did he have to let Su Chen follow him to his death?

"Greetings, Seventh Prince!"

Beside the dragon horse carriage, a middle-aged man immediately stepped forward to salute; his eyes stayed on Su Chen, and his brows furrowed slightly.

Soul Transformation Stage!

Lin Jin said indifferently: "This is the Young Lord of the Su Family, Su Chen; he will go to the Jinghong Empire with us."

He didn't explain too much, apparently not holding Su Chen in high regard.

Zhang An immediately frowned; he couldn't help but sigh; it seemed that Your Highness had not managed to invite people from the Su Family.

He was one of the Void Refining Early Stage experts under Lin Jin, and he was also specifically following to protect Lin Jin this time.

"Your Highness!"

Zhang An's expression was a bit worried; this time, they hadn't invited any extra Void Refining experts, which meant the Seventh Prince only had two Void Refining experts under his command.

Lin Jin waved his hand: "Let's go, let's go back first."

Neither of them took Su Chen too seriously; after all, he was just at the Soul Transformation Stage, and even if he was a Genius or a Prodigy, how strong could he really be?

Soon, the dragon horses directly lifted their hooves and stepped into the air, disappearing into the horizon.

This hybrid dragon horse was tamed by the founding emperor of the Jinghong Empire and had always been the exclusive mount of the royal family; it could ride the wind and was extremely fast, comparable to the Soul Transformation Peak.

Su Chen sat in the carriage, looking at the rapidly receding scenery, and he immediately began to consider whether he should also subdue a cool mount.

However, he didn't look down on ordinary Yao Beasts; it had to be at least a Divine Beast.

This would have to be found slowly in the future.

Just at this moment, Su Chen looked towards the distance, a trace of a cold smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

"I didn't expect trouble to find me so quickly."

As soon as the words fell, the Void Realm directly in front of the dragon horse carriage suddenly surged.

Immediately after, a huge Void Realm crack appeared, and four powerful attacks were slashed out from the Void Realm crack, rapidly killing towards the carriage where Lin Jin was.

The clouds in the sky were surging, affected by these terrifying forces.

"Your Highness, be careful!"

Zhang An's pupils shrank sharply, and he tried his best to block it.

But the four attacks were too sharp, and since it was a sneak attack, how could he, a Void Refining Early Stage, block them completely?

"Puff!"

A mouthful of bright red blood sprayed out, and the aura on Zhang An's body also became sluggish.

Ambush!

Lin Jin was furious; his eyes were full of crazy murderous intent; were they already unable to wait to kill him?

He looked towards the other dragon horse carriage, which was where Su Chen was sitting, but at this moment it had already been completely destroyed.

Su Chen had fallen; this completely extinguished all the expectations in his heart.

When leaving the Su Family, Su Qingtian had sworn that Su Chen was very capable.

But now it seemed... it was hard to describe.

Lin Jin could never have imagined that this good brother of his would actually be putting him off.

"Hahaha, Seventh Prince, you won't be able to leave today."

A masked man in black walked out; he carried a sky-piercing Saber Qi, as if he could split everything, and just looking at it made one's eyes ache.

Immediately after, three more figures walked out from the Void Realm; their auras were all incomparably powerful.

Four people, four Void Refining Middle Stage.

And on Lin Jin's side, there was only Zhang An, a Void Refining Early Stage; looking at it this way, the outcome was already extremely obvious.

Lin Jin looked up and said coldly: "Who sent you, Big Brother? Or Second Brother?"

The man holding the saber smiled coldly: "As expected of the Seventh Prince, to be able to remain so calm in this situation, you are a talent, what a pity."

As soon as the words fell, he directly raised his hand and killed towards Zhang An; Lin Jin was only at the Soul Transformation Perfection, so as long as he killed this fly, Zhang An, then killing Lin Jin would be like taking something from a pocket.

Zhang An roared: "Your Highness, run!"

"Do you think you can still get away today?"

An incomparably cold voice rang out, and the surrounding tens of miles were instantly frozen; the temperature dropped sharply, and even Zhang An, who was in the Void Refining stage, couldn't help but shiver.

The moment this person made a move, Lin Jin also knew his identity.

A person under the First Prince, the Ice Valley Revered Master, Duan Wuhan.

On the other side, Zhang An screamed, and one of his arms had been cut off directly; his expression was ferocious to the extreme.

However, this kind of injury was not fatal for the Void Refining stage; reaching this Realm, regrowing severed limbs was no longer difficult.

"Seventh Prince, please go die."

Duan Wuhan's tone was cold, like a vengeful ghost from the Nine Netherworlds, and a huge ice cone condensed and killed towards Lin Jin.

In this struggle for the crown prince, the princes were fighting for the throne, while they were fighting for their future.

Once the prince they supported took the throne, it would have endless benefits for them and their forces.

Conversely, it would mean falling into an endless abyss, so they wanted to win even more than the princes fighting for the throne.

"Want to kill me, it's not that easy!"

Lin Jin's eyes were full of coldness; the aura on his body seemed to break through shackles, instantly breaking through from the Soul Transformation Perfection to the Void Refining Early Stage.

Immediately after, he grabbed Zhang An and prepared to tear the Void Realm to escape.

"Unexpectedly, you are actually in the Void Refining stage!"

Duan Wuhan's eyes were full of surprise.
