Chapter 222: Ice and Snow Cicada
Unlike the eldest son, the third son has a higher origin, and is the son of the younger brother of the Prince of Anyang. In terms of bloodline, the third son is the closest to the Prince of Anyang, which is a great advantage for the third son.
Unlike the eldest son who has been outstanding since childhood, the third son has been mediocre in all aspects since childhood, and is not outstanding among the several sons. However, in recent years, the third son's cultivation has risen rapidly, and he has risen strongly all of a sudden, and has also gathered a lot of forces under his command.
With the rise of the third son, the status of the eldest son has become precarious, so the eldest son is so full of crisis.
The reason why the eldest son came to the Mu family today is essentially to get closer to the Mu family and to Mr. Mu. With the status of the Mu family, among the several sons, if anyone can get the full support of the Mu family, then the hope of ascending the throne in the future will be much greater.
But unfortunately, under the control of Mr. Mu, the Mu family has not approached any of the sons and has always been in a neutral state. Although the Second Master Mu and his people have a good relationship with the eldest prince, it only represents them personally, not the entire Mu family will support the eldest prince.
Su Chen knows something about the trajectory of Anyang City in the previous life. He knows that the final outcome of the previous life was that the third prince ascended to the throne of the Prince of Anyang, while the eldest prince's end was very miserable.
Therefore, looking at the eldest prince in front of him, Su Chen couldn't hate him in his heart.
"Brother Su Chen, don't look at this prince's glamorous appearance, but in fact, in recent times, I have suffered several losses from my third brother and been repeatedly reprimanded by the prince. If I present a fake painting to the prince as a birthday gift at the prince's birthday banquet this time, maybe this time I will really be doomed. So you see, on the surface, I seem to be the eldest prince with the most stable status, but in fact, my situation is very dangerous."
The eldest prince simply complained to Su Chen.
Su Chen listened indifferently and did not respond.
"Brother Su Chen, I didn't stop Sun Yaozu from attacking you at the banquet. I hope you don't mind."
The eldest prince changed the subject and talked about Sun Yaozu.
"Sun Yaozu's family has a deep hatred for you. He must attack you, and he also reported to this prince before he attacked. This prince has no reason to stop him. What's more, he is dead now. If there is any sin, he has redeemed it with death." The eldest prince said.
"I understand."
Su Chen said lightly. He didn't need the eldest prince to help him at all, so he didn't care.
"So... ahem, this prince won't waste each other's time, and won't continue to beat around the bush with brother Su Chen."
"What does the eldest prince want to say?" Su Chen smiled lightly.
"This prince wants to ask Brother Su Chen to help me ascend the throne."
The eldest prince finally talked about his real purpose today. When he talked about this, the eldest prince swept away the dejection just now, his eyes glowed with a dazzling spirit, and the whole person was bursting with the aura of a king.
If it were someone else here at this moment, they would most likely be impressed by the aura of a king in the eldest prince.
However, Su Chen was unmoved and said calmly: "I am just a 15-year-old boy. How can I help the eldest prince ascend the throne?"
"Hahahaha, brother Su Chen is too modest." The eldest prince laughed, "Your martial arts talent is even inferior to this prince. This prince will not be wrong. In the future, you will definitely become a real dragon and soar into the sky."
The eldest prince's eyes were filled with a hint of fanaticism. He knew that a genius who could defeat an opponent by leaps and bounds by four levels is definitely rare in a century. The reason why he is not famous now is just that Su Chen has not grown up yet.
If Su Chen is given time to grow up, the eldest prince believes that it is only a matter of time before Su Chen becomes the top-notch strongman in Anyang County.
The eldest prince believes that his vision will not be wrong. What he needs to do now is to grab this potential stock before other princes see Su Chen's potential.
"If this prince ascends the throne in the future, Brother Su Chen will be a great contributor. This prince can promise to share the supreme power of Anyang County with Brother Su Chen." The eldest prince spoke again and said shocking words.
If other people heard this, they would definitely be shocked. Whether it is the emperor of a country or the king of a county, from ancient times to the present, there has never been a person in power who dared to say that he would share power with others. It is such a supreme honor to share the power of the king of a county with the King of Anyang County.
Therefore, after saying this, the eldest prince was very sure that Su Chen would agree to it immediately. His eyes were full of expectations.
But soon, the eldest prince was disappointed.
Because after Su Chen heard what the eldest prince said, his expression did not change at all. His eyes were clear and deep, just like the starry sky, without any excitement or enthusiasm.
It felt like the power and honor that people pursued were just passing clouds in his eyes.
"I have no interest in power."
Su Chen said. In his previous life, he was already the Dan Emperor. The power he held was not comparable to the power of the secular princes. He had no interest in these secular powers at all.
He has only one goal in this life, that is, to be the highest in martial arts, to break the void, and to become a god.
The eldest prince was surprised. He would never have thought that Su Chen would answer him like this.
Originally, he thought that what he promised to Su Chen was already an honor that many people dared not even think about. It was equivalent to revealing all his cards to Su Chen, but Su Chen was unmoved.
This made the eldest prince not know what to say for a while.
This is already the maximum he can do. Do you have to give up the throne to Su Chen? Don't joke.
"I don't know what conditions Brother Su Chen needs to help this prince ascend the throne?" The eldest prince simply asked. Anyway, guessing is a waste of time, so it's better to ask directly.
You Su Chen are not interested in power, are you not interested in everything? That's impossible. Wealth, resources, and beauty, men will always be interested in one of them. Those who are not interested in all are saints.
Su Chen thought for a moment and asked, "Have you ever heard of the Ice and Snow Cicada, Master?"
"Ice and Snow Cicada?"
The Master looked surprised. He did know that this thing was a treasure of the palace. Only the Anyang County Prince of each generation was qualified to inherit it, but he didn't know what it was used for.
Unexpectedly, Su Chen actually knew about this Ice and Snow Cicada.
