How could there be a double-crowned king? Was it the king of the ancient beasts in the inner area?
The next moment, a red-eyed evil-looking youth dressed in red appeared in front of the lake of dragon blood.
"How dare a mere ant try to steal my stuff?" The evil-looking youth waved his sleeves, and the entire lake of dragon blood was sucked into a blood gourd.
"Hehe, this is the third gourd of dragon blood." The evil-looking youth hung the gourd on his waist, and it stood side by side with the other two identical gourds.
After saying that, he left without even looking at the destiny on the ground.
Su Yu was secretly astonished by what he saw.
The evil-looking youth was one of the people Su Yu could not see through.
He was a subordinate of the Fourth Prince. Su Yu had thought that he was just a little special, but he did not expect him to be a double-crowned king!
The strange thing was that he had no interest in collecting the destiny of the nation, and even ignored the emperor-level destiny.
"It seems that he snuck in under the guise of assisting the Fourth Prince. He has other motives."
After waiting for a moment to make sure that there were no more ancient beasts lurking nearby, he took out a small bag and put away the destiny.
Looking at the empty lake of dragon blood, Su Yu felt it was a pity.
Then, without stopping, he chased after the severely injured green snake, which was also an emperor-level ancient beast.
The big green snake was good at burrowing into the ground, and ordinary people would lose track of it after a while.
But with his Transparent Eye, the cave it left behind could not be clearer.
Although the snake was injured, it was still agile. After chasing for half a day, Su Yu finally caught up with it.
He drew the Tianyi Bow and shot an arrow through the snake, which was hiding deep underground.
After receiving another emperor-level destiny, the small bag finally bulged a little.
"It's far from enough." Su Yu looked around and realized that he had unknowingly entered the inner area while chasing the big green snake.
According to the map, this was the territory of another emperor-level ancient beast, the Moon Howling Heavenly Wolf.
Su Yu stealthily sneaked into its nest, but was surprised to find that it was empty.
"Did it leave the nest?" Su Yu was puzzled.
In the next ten days, he went to the nests of the emperor-level ancient beasts, but he found nothing.
Even the Rat King, who rarely left the nest, was nowhere to be seen.
He searched through more than a dozen nests of various sizes, but he couldn't find a single trace of an Emperor-level ancient beast.
Not finding any Emperor Grade Ancient Beasts in one or two locations was not surprising, but in more than a dozen locations, Emperor Grade Ancient Beasts seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth.
"The Five-Colored Lizard's nest is up ahead. If there's nothing else …"
Suddenly, a series of shouts and battle cries entered his ears.
When he looked through the Heavenly Eye, he could not help but reveal a strange expression.
Within a certain damp cave, Empress Ziwei, a seductive woman, and several of the First Prince's subordinates were being attacked by the Second Prince's subordinates.
"How dare you! You even dare to kill the First Prince's people!" The charming woman shouted.
They had received orders to investigate the situation of the Five-Colored Lizard's lair, but their search was fruitless. When they returned, they had not expected to run into the Second Prince's troops.
Under the command of a black-robed man wearing a bamboo hat, they immediately surrounded them.
The charming woman and her group were outnumbered and were forced to retreat step by step. More than half of them were injured or killed.
Amidst the shouts, a few more people were killed. The charming woman was struck by the black-robed man's peculiar divine technique.
Her entire body immediately turned pitch-black. Then, she became motionless like a rock and could only watch helplessly as the enemy's sword slashed toward her.
More than half of their troops died to this strange divine art that was impossible to guard against.
The charming woman closed her eyes in despair and waited for death to descend upon her.
At this moment, someone grabbed her from behind, and she was dragged back to avoid that attack.
"Retreat to the nest and wait for reinforcements!"
The charming woman's heart relaxed, and she grinned. "Sister Ziwei is still the most reliable. You can be relied on at crucial times."
But how could the Second Prince's troops allow them to escape into the nest?
The black-robed man's body surged with black energy, which transformed into sinister black snakes that swarmed toward them.
In the blink of an eye, five people were struck and turned into pitch-black rocks. They could not move in the slightest and were hacked to death.
In the blink of an eye, only Empress Ziwei and the charming woman were left.
At this critical moment, Empress Ziwei circulated the remaining divine energy in her body and shouted coldly, "Meteorite Ice Tribulation!"
A huge ball of ice appeared in front of them and barely blocked the cave.
The pitch-black snakes were frozen by the extreme frost as soon as they approached.
"Hehehe, do you think my Dark Demonic Energy is so easily blocked?" A cold sneer sounded, and all the frozen snakes self-detonated.
The resulting shockwave completely shattered the ball of ice.
Empress Ziwei's divine energy was completely depleted, and she could no longer resist. Her eyes were filled with despair.
Unexpectedly, the other party did not kill her immediately. Instead, he said coldly, "Young Mistress Ziwei, hand over the thousand-year Dragon Beard Grass."
The despairing Empress Ziwei suddenly opened her eyes and said coldly, "You're here for this item? No, who leaked it? "
Five days ago, they had discovered a thousand-year Dragon Beard Grass while exploring the nest of an Emperor level ancient beast.
Dragon Beard Grass would usually be eaten by ancient beasts after growing for eight hundred years, and thousand-year Dragon Beard Grass was extremely rare.
If this item was handed over to Bei Wang Chen, it would definitely attract Emperor level ancient beasts.
However, only a few people knew of this item's existence at that time, and they had agreed not to disclose it to the public.
How did the second prince's people know of it, and even their specific coordinates were known by the other party, resulting in an ambush?
Her eyes flashed, and she suddenly grabbed the spatial artifact on her finger. Her face was pale, and she said weakly, "The thousand-year Dragon Beard Grass is inside. If you want it, let us go."
The black-robed bamboo hat man said solemnly, "Stop!"
Empress Ziwei grabbed onto the last straw of hope. She supported the charming woman and slowly stood up. "Give me the antidote and let us go. Otherwise, don't even think about obtaining the thousand-year Dragon Beard Grass."
Since they had come for this item, they would not sit idly by and watch the Dragon Beard Grass be destroyed.
As expected, the black-robed man hesitated and waved his hand to stop his subordinates from advancing rashly. He said eerily, "Accept your fate. You can't escape now. Your only choice is to die with dignity. Compared to the thousand-year Dragon Beard Grass, we are more unwilling to let the first prince know that we are killing his people."
Empress Ziwei's heart sank. The life-saving straw that she had just grabbed onto had sunk to the bottom.
If that was the case, only death would await her.
Slowly closing her eyes, Empress Ziwei sneered and stared at them. "Very well, if Bei Wang Chen can't get it, you ants won't get it either!"
The black-robed man sneered. "Ants? Aren't you overestimating Bei Wang Chen?! "
Empress Ziwei's eyes were filled with reverence. She shook her head and said with longing, "You won't understand. In front of him, all living beings are ants. In this world, only Bei Wang Chen can be called a genius. Everyone else, even the first prince, is overshadowed by him."
"Hehe, then you can accompany Bei Wang Chen to death!"
Empress Ziwei smiled sadly. Her eyes were filled with determination. "The Dragon Beard Grass is only prepared for Bei Wang Chen. You are not qualified to touch it!"
In an instant, she exerted force in her fingers and wanted to crush the interspatial storage device.
However, at this moment.
A pitch-black palm grabbed her right palm without any warning and forcefully stopped her from crushing the interspatial storage device.
A voice that he couldn't be more familiar with drifted into his ears, "Hehe, my good sister, you may want to die for Bei Wangchen, but I don't want to."
Empress Ziwei's body trembled violently. She turned around in shock. It was the charming woman she saved.
She was Empress Ziwei's only friend after she followed Bei Wang Chen.
The two went through life and death situations together. They trained together, cultivated in seclusion together, and experienced many years together.
She couldn't believe that the other party had betrayed her.
"It's you?" In an instant, all her doubts were solved.
There was indeed a traitor among them, but it was none other than her companions.
"You betrayed me!" Empress Ziwei was enraged. Her whole body emitted waves of coldness.
The charming woman laughed delicately and mercilessly broke the finger that was wearing the storage ring. She easily removed the storage device and threw it to the black-robed man.
She grabbed Empress Ziwei's throat with her other hand and sneered disdainfully. "Hehehe, what right do you have to be angry about someone else's betrayal?
"Do you remember when I asked you if you knew the Sixth Prince?"
Empress Ziwei's face stiffened.
"Your answer was that you didn't know him … Haha, do you really think I don't know what the Sixth Prince's real name was when he was training in the Sea of Constellations? It was Su Yu! He was the champion of the North Far Fief's Hidden Dragon Contest! As for the relationship between the two of you, I have already investigated it thoroughly! "
"Both of you came from the Sea of Constellations and carried out a mission together. But you chose to betray them after seeing Bei Wang Chen's invincible talent. You even participated in the hunt for your former companions.
"Do you have the right to be angry about someone else's betrayal?"
Empress Ziwei felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar. It was as if her worst side had been mercilessly dug out.
"You must be regretting it now, right? Your former country bumpkin companion has suddenly become the Sixth Prince of the Empire of Constellations. His status is respected, and he can summon the wind and rain. He is much stronger than you, the traitor from back then. "
"Stop it!" Empress Ziwei closed her eyes in pain, as if the charming woman had reopened her scar.
"I saw with my own eyes that the Sixth Prince did not linger on you for more than a breath's time. In his heart, you are already a stranger …"
"I told you to stop it! If you want to kill me, then kill me! "Empress Ziwei roared.
She would rather die than be reminded of the pain she had hidden deep in her heart.
"Oh? Angry from embarrassment? Hehe, someone like you who pursues perfection is the last thing you want to face in your life. Unfortunately, whether you admit it or not, you have been blind twice. "
"You misjudged him the first time, and you misjudged me the second time."
With a cold smile, the charming woman exerted strength in her fingers. "Goodbye, my sister, hehe …"
An intense pain came from her neck, and she felt as if her neck was about to snap.
However, right at that moment, an earth-shattering rumble reverberated through the cave.
A muffled sound came from behind her, and the hand that was gripping her neck slowly loosened.
