Any father would hope for his son to become a talent and a dragon. This was the wish of every father. However, to Chu Mu, it was precisely because every son he had was extremely outstanding that led to the current situation.
There was only one emperor's position, and there was also only one crown prince's position. However, he, Chu Mu, had a total of nine sons and four daughters. There was no need to mention his daughters. However, these nine sons of his gave Chu Mu both pride and a headache. Especially Chu Wuque, Chu Wushuang and Chu Wuming.
Every one of them had outstanding abilities and were completely worthy of the title of Crown Prince. However, as the saying goes, a mountain cannot contain two tigers. It was precisely because he had such outstanding sons that the three of them coveted the Crown Prince's Throne.
With such outstanding people coveting the Crown Prince's Throne at the same time, if Chu Mu were to confer the title to one of them, the other two would not be convinced.
Because he knew that the three of them would not easily give up the Crown Prince's Throne, Chu Mu decided to let them fight for it themselves. That way, no one would have any complaints about the one who could successfully ascend the Crown Prince's Throne.
Chu Mu thought in his heart. However, there was one thing that Chu Mu did not realize. As a father, there was nothing wrong with his actions. However, as an Emperor, his actions were extremely dangerous.
Princes fighting for power was something that could shake the foundation of the Empire. If it were any other Emperor, they would not have made such a choice. Instead, they would have conferred the Crown Prince's Throne. As for the other princes who were not convinced, they would have been abolished.
However, Chu Mu clearly could not do this. All of the princes were his sons. If he wanted to lay his hands on any of them, Chu Mu could not do it. It was precisely because he was soft-hearted towards all of the princes that it created the current chaotic situation of the princes fighting for power in the Moonless Empire.
Taking a deep look at Chu Wuming, Chu Mu did not say anything and turned to leave.
Seeing Chu Wuming slowly leaving, the emperor of the Moonless Empire, Xiao Chen's eyes flashed with a strange light. Although he didn't have much contact with Chu Mu, just based on his attitude towards Chu Wuming and the other two, this person wasn't suitable to be an emperor. Chu Mu's heart was too soft, especially towards his own family and descendants.
The most ruthless were the royal family. This was a saying that had been passed down since ancient times, and this saying was indeed not without reason. As an emperor, it was okay to have a kind heart, but a weak character was not desirable.
Allowing the princes to fight for power was a huge mistake. Furthermore, from the looks of it, Chu Mu did not seem to have any intention of stopping them.
He was too soft-hearted and didn't have the decisiveness of a monarch. That was why Xiao Chen said that Chu Mu wasn't suitable to sit on the supreme throne.
Of course, Xiao Chen naturally wouldn't say these words to anyone else. Following Chu Mu's departure, Chu Wuming's gaze locked onto the two people from the temple who had stopped him earlier.
Sensing Chu Wushuang's gaze, the two people from the temple immediately changed their expressions. However, before they could say anything, Chu Wuming coldly shouted. "Two dog slaves, you even dare to stop me. If I don't execute the two of you on the spot, where will I put my face in the future? Men, take down these two dog slaves who have no respect for their superiors."
As soon as Chu Mu left, Chu Wuming immediately started to make things difficult. As for who his target was, it was without a doubt directed at Chu Wushuang. He already knew that the two people from the temple were Chu Wushuang's people. Now that Chu Wuming wanted to kill them on the spot, it was undoubtedly sending a message to Chu Wushuang: in the future, I, Chu Wuming, am no longer someone you can casually bully.
Hearing Chu Wuming's words, the imperial guards behind him took large strides forward, wanting to take down the two people. However, at this moment, Chu Wushuang stood out and shouted.
"Chu Wuming, what do you mean? This is Wu He Palace, not a place for you to be impudent."
Chu Wushuang stepped out to stop him. Of course, he couldn't let Chu Wuming kill the two people from the temple. It wasn't that their lives were important, but it was a matter of face. If he allowed Chu Wuming to kill the two people from the temple today, then he, Chu Wushuang, would lose all face.
The two brothers glared at each other. Faced with Chu Wushuang's obstruction, Chu Wuming coldly laughed and said, "Second brother, these two servants have no respect for their elders. Today, I want to restore the hierarchy. Why is second brother stopping me?"
"Chu Wuming, don't think that this consort doesn't know what you're thinking. Let me tell you, with me here today, don't even think about being impudent." Chu Wuming's words, Chu Wushuang angrily shouted.
Obviously, he wouldn't step aside. Seeing this, Chu Wuming turned to look at Xiao Chen. They looked at each other and soon understood Chu Wuming's intention. He wanted Zhang Qi to kill them.
Faced with Chu Wushuang's obstruction, Chu Wushuang had his own guards around. Therefore, only Zhang Qi, a super expert in the Tao Master Realm, could kill the two people from the temple under Chu Wushuang's protection.
Understanding Chu Wuming's intention, Xiao Chen also stood up and nodded slightly. Seeing this, Zhang Qi stepped out and instantly passed by Chu Wushuang.
As a super expert in the Tao Master Realm, if Zhang Qi wanted to kill, naturally no one present could stop her. Without any hesitation, she gently pointed two fingers. At the same time, Chu Wushuang behind her shouted angrily, "Chu Wuming, are you going to fight me to the death?"
Seeing that Chu Wuming still killed the two people from the temple even though he had already stepped forward to stop him, Chu Wushuang's anger could be imagined.
Hearing Chu Wushuang's words, Chu Wuming sneered and said, "Fight me to the death? Second brother, you have to think carefully. If you fight with me now, I'm afraid you have no chance of winning. "
Chu Wuming was no longer the same as before. Now, Chu Wushuang was not afraid of Chu Wushuang at all. Hearing this, Chu Wushuang's face immediately became gloomy and uncertain.
Indeed, he had no chance of winning if he fought with Chu Wuming now. After all, Chu Wuming had Zhang Qi, a super expert in the Tao Master Realm, by his side, while Chu Wushuang did not. Once they started fighting, Zhang Qi alone was enough to kill him easily.
Chu Wushuang's heart was filled with hatred, but his reason kept telling him that Chu Wuming was not the same as before. He had the ability to fight with him.
Seeing that Chu Wushuang was silent with a face full of anger, Chu Wuming's smile became brighter and brighter. "Second brother, you really reminded me just now. Do you think that if I kill you now, I will have one less opponent in the future?"
An extremely obscure killing intent flashed in his eyes. Hearing this, Chu Wushuang's heart skipped a beat. He looked at Chu Wuming in surprise. Although he did not think that Chu Wuming would really dare to kill him in front of Wuhe Palace, he was still worried. If Chu Wuming went crazy, he would be in danger.
Realizing the danger, Chu Wushuang snorted coldly and said, "Humph, let's wait and see." Then, without waiting for Chu Wuming to reply, he immediately left with his people.
