The people would naturally be displaced, and when the Northern Cold is in chaos, a new prince will probably be sent to guard the area.
Who will be able to shoulder this great responsibility in the future?
Having guarded the frontier in the Northern Cold for so many years, Xu Xiao must possess exceptional skills, something that most people simply don't have.
Therefore, in his mind, it doesn't matter how capable Xu Fengnian really is.
These are all matters concerning the Northern Cold Kingdom, and have little to do with him. As long as the Li Yang Dynasty can prosper, that's all that matters. Other matters are not of much concern to him either.
All he wanted was immortality; everything else was irrelevant to him.
Therefore, in his view, as long as the fate of the Li Yang Dynasty could be guaranteed, that was enough; he didn't care about anything else.
"I didn't expect this old gentleman to be so loyal to His Highness. If you've been waiting here the whole time, does that mean I won't have a chance to make my move?"
"To be honest, we don't seem to have any grudges. The old man is free to go out and wander around as he pleases, and I won't do anything to His Highness."
Situ Xian glanced at Lao Huang calmly, then spoke.
After all, in his mind, the situation before him was probably just as he had imagined.
This old guy is just afraid that I will make a move against Xu Fengnian, so he has been protecting Xu Fengnian all this time. But even so, so what?
Old Huang may have some skill, but even so, can he really use his moves against me?
Not to mention him, even looking at the entire martial arts world, there are very few people who can withstand his real moves.
After hearing this, Old Huang didn't care at all. He showed his big yellow teeth and gave Situ Xian a dark smile without saying anything.
After all, in his mind, there was no need for him to say anything; anything he said would only be a futile attempt to cover up his shortcomings.
The guy in front of me is really too powerful, and what he said is true. Even if I were here, if he really wanted to do something to Xu Fengnian, I would probably be powerless to stop him.
They will naturally become funerary objects in the end, and will have no practical significance whatsoever.
Xu Fengnian was displeased after hearing this; in her opinion, this young man was far too arrogant.
Chapter 258 Do you want an explanation?
How dare he utter such arrogant words? What is he thinking? On this very mountain of swords, he still dares to plot against me. He really doesn't take the Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm seriously at all!
On Wangjian Mountain, if someone were to act recklessly and want to kill someone, the Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm would naturally not let him off easily.
Xu Fengnian still couldn't figure out who this Situ Xian in front of him was.
I really can't guess how capable this guy is. He's incredibly arrogant, even more so than I am.
He himself was the high and mighty Prince of Beihan, holding a very prestigious and sacred position.
And who is he? How could he be compared to me? This guy must be tired of living, right?
Fortunately, this was on Wangjian Mountain. If it were in Beihan, Prince Xu Fengnian would definitely have had a proper conversation with him in the shortest amount of time.
How should one conduct oneself? How should the word "humility" be written?
14 “Mr. Situ, your words sound hostile. As far as I know, I have never met you before, and we have no grudges whatsoever. Why would you say such threatening things to our servants?”
"And why did Mr. Situ have to lay a hand on me?"
"I'm a complete idiot, I really don't understand these things at all, I hope Mr. Situ can give me a satisfactory explanation."
At this moment, Xu Fengnian changed his usual arrogant attitude and spoke calmly to Situ Xian.
This attitude made Situ Xian feel somewhat helpless. He never expected that Xu Fengnian would speak to this person so calmly.
Rumors say that Xu Fengnian is extremely arrogant, and he is domineering and arrogant to everyone he meets, showing absolutely no respect to anyone.
Why would this guy give me such a big favor?
Situ Xian had prepared some words to deal with Xu Fengnian, but now, Xu Fengnian didn't say anything, he just wanted a reasonable explanation.
This stumped Situ Xian.
But no matter what, Situ Xian has lived for countless years, and he has a very clear understanding of human relationships and social customs.
In his opinion, since that's the case, there's no need for him to invite unnecessary trouble for himself.
Even if you don't like the Crown Prince in front of you, why make an enemy of yourself?
Even if he came from the Northern Cold, he didn't know whether this guy was friend or foe.
In this situation, it's best not to make enemies. As long as this guy doesn't offend me or ruin my plans, I'll let him do whatever he wants.
Just as the Martial Saint himself said, those who come to Wangjian Mountain are all guests, and it has nothing to do with him.
Everyone here is a guest of Wangjian Mountain. What Xu Fengnian does is his business, and he has the freedom to do whatever he wants.
Seeing that Situ Xian hadn't spoken for a long time, Xu Fengnian was indeed a little unhappy. In his opinion, this guy was so arrogant that he had to give him a satisfactory explanation today.
Otherwise, wouldn't he lose his reputation as a spoiled rich kid?
Although he could do whatever he wanted in Beihan, once he came to Wangjian Mountain, he had to follow Wang Jianshan's rules.
"Does Mr. Situ have any explanation? How dare he say such a thing to our old servant? Does he really intend to harm me?"
As Xu Fengnian spoke, he appeared extremely frightened, a situation that Situ Xian had never anticipated.
In his mind, Xu Fengnian was really shameless, and now he had given him such a difficult problem.
I really couldn't give him a reasonable explanation. What could I say? That I really wanted to kill Xu Fengliang?
Don't be ridiculous. Even if you wanted to take it down, you would have to get off Wangjian Mountain first.
Killing someone on this mountain is a major taboo in the martial arts world, and it also violates the rules of the martial arts saints.
At that time, I would probably have nowhere to go. And if I were to lose my life because of a mere Xu Fengnian, wouldn't that be a huge loss?
"Oh dear, Your Highness, why take it so seriously? I was just joking. I have no grudges against Your Highness, neither in the past nor in the present."
"Why would you need to attack His Highness?"
"Moreover, the Crown Prince Tianxia comes from Beihan. As the Crown Prince of Beihan, he naturally has a good status."
"You are noble and sacred, and naturally you are not something that we ordinary people can compare to."
"If I really had that kind of guts, wouldn't the Northern Cold Iron Cavalry have crushed me into mincemeat?"
Situ Xian was very clear about the power of the Northern Cold.
There's no way they'd be stupid enough to create trouble for themselves!
Chapter 259 Mutual Testing
Situ Xian said these words with some embarrassment, but Xu Fengnian didn't seem to mind. In fact, he knew that Situ Xian's words were not unreasonable.
It's perfectly normal. What a joke! No matter what, as the Crown Prince of Bei Han, there are really very few people in the entire world who would dare to oppose him.
While there are many people who want to kill themselves, there are very few who actually have that kind of power.
As the heir of Beihan, even if he himself doesn't have much ability, they still need to seriously consider just how powerful Beihan's iron cavalry really is.
If something were to happen to him, Xu Xiao would still lead the Northern Cold Iron Cavalry to roam the martial world.
What kind of power is that?
Even if this person has the most powerful authority, it would probably be difficult for him to withstand the brave and skilled Northern Iron Cavalry.
Although Xu Fengnian didn't have much experience, in his opinion, the Northern Cold Iron Cavalry were quite brave.
In this whole world, there are very few who can compare to him, as long as he really suffers any mishap in the martial arts world or anywhere else.
Xu Xiao would definitely do anything to avenge himself, so there are really very few people in the whole world who would dare to do anything against him.
The man before me, Situ Xian, comes from the Li Yang Dynasty. What kind of audacity would he have to be against me?
Don't joke around. Even if he had such thoughts, he might have to endure it for a while on Wangjian Mountain.
"I knew it! I have absolutely no grudge against Mr. Situ. You wouldn't lay a hand on a good-for-nothing like me."
"Everyone knows my reputation; I'm just a good-for-nothing. If you really attack me because I'm a good-for-nothing, then the entire Wangjian Mountain might not let you off easily."
"As you probably know, we in Bei Han have now pledged allegiance to the Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm. In other words, the Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm is now our protector."
"Anyone who acts against the people of Beihan is declaring war on the Martial Saint of the Human World."
Xu Fengnian spoke with a mix of seriousness and nonchalance, believing that everything he said was the truth and beyond reproach.
Although, as the heir of the Northern Cold Kingdom, he didn't have much confidence in saying such things.
However, Xu Fengnian naturally understood that under these circumstances, he must not reveal his trump card casually.
As for who this Situ is, and how powerful he is, I have no idea.
Therefore, hiding one's strength is also a form of invisible protection.
Xu Fengnian was also very intelligent, and he was very clear about how to make a decision under these circumstances.
Otherwise, he would probably have died in the martial arts world during those three years.
Don't be fooled by the formidable strength of Xu Xiao, the King of Northern Cold. If Xu Fengnian were to truly die in the martial world, there would be no way to trace his whereabouts, and he would have no choice but to suffer in silence.
Moreover, Xu Xiao naturally had a very clear understanding of his son.
He also knew that although Xu Fengnian seemed arrogant and domineering, like a young master, he was actually very righteous.
They are simply not comparable to ordinary people.
Otherwise, how could Xu Xiao be so confident and bold as to hand over the entire Northern Cold to him in the future?
