Chapter 142 3 Uncle's Big Show
Everyone hid in an empty corner, with a view just wide enough to see what was happening in the square. They saw Cen Song and Yun Feiyang standing on the left and right among the soldiers, untying the ropes of the prisoners and releasing them easily.
Seeing a group of more than a dozen people being let go, the officers and soldiers did not move, and the two brothers did not move either. Just when the group of more than a dozen people were about to disappear at the street corner, a team of soldiers in heavy armor rushed in from all directions and surrounded everyone.
"Is there an ambush?"
Yun Yiduo was worried when she saw this. She wanted to go forward but was stopped by Wu Tong. At the same time, Ji Cheng snorted coldly:
"What a trick. It seems that the Third Prince has some tricks up his sleeve."
"These people were arranged to be beheaded in the downtown area as a trap. His purpose was to force out my two brothers-in-law!"
Zhang Qiong was also muttering to himself, but he unconsciously tightened the handle of his long sword. Seeing the soldiers coming in front of everyone, the dozen people had to retreat back to Cen Song and Yun Feiyang.
"From the situation, it seems that the fox spirits have been ambushed, but they also have a group of extraordinary masters helping them. The outcome is still unknown."
"However, after this incident, they were completely exposed in Xudu."
Ji Cheng and Zhang Qiong's concerted efforts successfully made Yun Yido's heart rise to her throat, but she chose to believe in her two brothers, who would not fight an unprepared battle.
In the square, teams of soldiers marched forward in an orderly manner from all directions, surrounding Cen Song, Yun Feiyang and their group. It was estimated that there were three to five thousand people.
Upon seeing this, Cen Song and Yun Feiyang looked at each other without saying anything. They stood side by side in front of the dozen or so people who were demolishing the temple.
"You bold thief, the Royal Guards are here, why don't you surrender?"
After the two men stood still, the commander of the guards stepped forward and shouted loudly. All the guards shouted in unison with their guns raised, creating a magnificent atmosphere.
"The thief leader?"
Cen Song laughed out loud when he heard this word. He looked at the leader with his narrow and long phoenix eyes and said meaningfully:
"Commander, do you know me?"
The man was stunned by Cen Song's question. It seemed unnecessary for him to know a person from Central Plains!
"Who are you?"
Cen Song shook his robe, took two steps forward, took out a jade pendant from his arms and held it high.
"The son of the eldest prince Cen Hua, Cen Song."
When the jade pendant flashed and the identity was revealed, the guards were stunned. They couldn't arrest this person. Looking at the topaz that was exactly the same as the one on the third prince's waist, the commander knew that this person was probably real. Because he knew very well that the eldest prince's child disappeared. But he couldn't disobey the third prince's order.
"Sir, the eldest grandson of the emperor has been missing for many years. A jade pendant cannot prove your identity! Come on, come on!"
At the command of the commander of the imperial guards, the imperial guards stepped forward to capture the man, and Cen Song and Yun Feiyang started fighting with them.
Cen Song shuttled between the guards, not expecting to reverse the situation with a jade pendant, but now was the time for him to reveal his identity. Since he had already faced the guards, he would naturally face the third prince.
Yun Feiyang also fought with the imperial guards, his folding fan flying up and down, and he used his internal energy to transmit the sound while fighting.
"You said that the identity of the eldest grandson of the emperor cannot be proved, but what if he is the Son of God?"
Yun Feiyang not only announced his identity loudly, but also exposed his wrists, exposing a pair of wrist bells under the bright sunlight.
"Son of God?"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this title. What Son of God? Lingqiong had only heard of the Goddess for so many years, but never the Son of God! However, when they saw the pair of wrist bells in Yun Feiyang's hands, their eyes almost popped out.
Not only did the guards' eyes pop out, Yun Yiduo's eyes almost popped out as well. How come the thing in this brother's hand is so similar to their Lingxi wrist bells? This must be a high-quality imitation from ancient times!
"He...he actually has the sacred relic Lingxi in his hand!"
Many of the Royal Guards had seen the former goddess, Princess Lingqiong, and were naturally very familiar with the Lingxi wrist bell.
"The sacred object of the Spiritual Sky is here. Now that you have seen the Son of God, why don't you kneel?"
Yun Feiyang's loud shout stopped the many guards who believed in the temple. They looked at each other, not knowing how to deal with the current situation.
"How can you prove that it is a real holy object?"
A voice came from the Royal Guards. Yun Feiyang looked at the man calmly and said with a smile:
"Why don't we just ask Elder Lingqiong to confirm it?"
The commander of the imperial guards did not dare to make a decision after hearing this, and everyone was deadlocked in the square. Yun Feiyang looked at a tall building and said softly:
"Uncle, with all the drama going on, why don't you show up?"
Following his voice, everyone looked towards the tall building, only to see a window on the building being gently pushed open, and a slightly plump middle-aged man standing in front of the window.
"His Royal Highness the Third Prince!"
The moment the man opened the window, all the guards saluted him in unison. The sound was so deafening that it gave people a chill. Yun Feiyang and Cen Song looked at the man upstairs with a faint smile on their faces.
"These two are going to confront the Third Prince head-on!"
Zhang Qiong was watching and talking, and was very confused about what Cen Song and the others did. But Ji Cheng seemed to have guessed what they were thinking.
"They probably want to turn passivity into initiative."
"Captain of the Imperial Guard, don't listen to their lies and capture them immediately."
At the Third Prince's command, the guards did not dare to delay and rushed forward with their guns, attacking the two again. Cen Song was not in a hurry when he saw this, and shuttled back and forth among the guards but did not kill anyone.
"Uncle San, you are planning to kill people for treasures, right? After all, you have been doing this for so many years. Why is it that killing the goddess is not enough for you? You even want to kill the Son of God?"
Cen Song's voice, driven by his inner strength, resounded throughout the square, and the surrounding guards and civilians all heard it. At this moment, they couldn't help but feel confused.
"I've had enough of being hunted down. I originally wanted to return to the temple to protect the people of Lingqiong, but I didn't expect that the temple was gone and the Lingqiong soldiers wanted to kill me. It seems that it's better for me, the Son of God, not to return to Lingqiong!"
Yun Feiyang fought and spoke at the same time, his words were confident and sincere, and it seemed that he was really disappointed with Lingqiong.
"Cousin, please don't think like that. The people of Lingqiong have been looking forward to the return of the holy object and the revival of the temple. Only those with wolfish ambitions dare not meet the Son of God."
The two of them talked back and forth, confusing the guards and the people, not knowing whether to believe or not. The Third Prince saw that some of the guards hesitated because of what the two said, and immediately ordered:
"The guards will kill them both quickly."
"Uncle, are you afraid that the ugly things you did will be made public? Back then, you sent people to hunt down the goddess, and the holy woman was left outside. The people of Xudu don't know about it!"
"Yes, why did the goddess disappear and why did the holy object disappear? Fellow villagers of Lingqiong, have you ever thought about investigating the truth of that year?"
Yun Feiyang's voice was so powerful that some of the imperial guards stopped their attack. They had always heard the truth of the past from the third prince, but they also wanted to know why the goddess disappeared.
"The people of Lingqiong have great faith in the goddess. They must want to know the truth."
