The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 773

Seeing that her son was unharmed, Dai Rongpei looked at Xu Tian coldly.

"Your Highness has indeed taken good care of my son. It seems I should thank you."

"I pleaded for my son, and he was spared."

Dai Rongpei's tone was sarcastic.

You should know that all of this was done by Xu Tian.

He won't thank him at all.

All I want to do is kill him.

I'm just saying these things for fun.

Xu Tian was well aware that Dai Rongpei harbored a deep and abiding hatred for him.

At this moment, Dai Rongpei probably wants to kill him the most.

The reason he was sent to the banquet alone was simply to ensure that he and the Ninth Prince would both perish there.

Dai Rongpei is oversimplifying things.

Who is Xu Tian? And why would he surrender so easily?

"The child has already been brought here, General, please release the Ninth Prince immediately!"

Xu Tian glanced at Li Zhi, who was being held captive beside Dai Rong.

Dai Rongpei gave a soft hum.

Xu Tian and his group were instantly surrounded by people.

However, there was no fear in Xu Tian's eyes.

Dai Rongpei was well-prepared, and so was he.

"Dai Rongpei, do you intend to go back on your word?"

Dai Rongpei burst into laughter.

"So what if I want to go back on my word? Today I will kill Li Zhi."

"Even you wouldn't be able to go back alive."

With a single command from him, not only Li Zhi, but even Xu Tian would be reduced to ashes.

Dai Xiang'an had already been snatched away by Dai Rongpei's men.

Their broadswords were all pointed at Xu Tian.

One of his men raised his knife to strike Li Zhi.

Xu Tian, ​​quick-witted, shouted loudly.

“Dai Rongpei, if you really cut him down, your son will be dead.”

Dai Rongpei frowned.

"Xu Tian, ​​what do you mean?"

Xu Tian snorted coldly.

He said directly, "I poisoned Dai Xiang'an before I arrived. If you kill the Ninth Prince, your son will not survive either."

He had already heard about it a long time ago.

Dai Rongpei spent a lot of effort to get this son.

His son already had several daughters before him.

Even the imperial physicians said that he was incapable of having a son.

But later they used many folk remedies before they were able to have this son.

Therefore, for Dai Rongpei, this son was more important than anything else.

He would never disregard his own son's life to kill the Ninth Prince.

Upon hearing Xu Tian's words, Dai Rongpei indeed hesitated.

With a wave of his hand, he ordered the guards to release Li Zhi.

When Li Zhi walked up to Xu Tian's side.

Dai Rongpei demanded the antidote.

"I've released the person, but where's the antidote?"

Xu Tian persuaded Dai Rong to surrender voluntarily.

Dai Rongpei snorted coldly.

"It is absolutely impossible for me to surrender."

At this point, surrendering would be tantamount to suicide.

How could Li Er possibly forgive him so easily?

Perhaps he had only been in prison before, serving time in jail.

But now, Li Er will absolutely not let him end up like this.

Moreover, Dai Rongpei has no intention of surrendering at all.

He took his son and obtained the "antidote" from Xu Tian. He then left without looking back.

Xu Tian secretly ordered someone to follow Dai Rongpei.

Watching Dai Rongpei's departing figure, his brows furrowed, and his expression turned extremely cold.

He had no intention of letting Dai Rongpei off easily.

As long as they find out where Dai Rongpei is hiding, they don't believe he won't surrender easily.
