"Zhao Wuhou, do you have any ideas?"
In a huge golden hall in the palace, the Empress looked at Zhao Wuhou who was sitting at the side.
Zhao Wuhou's expression was frighteningly gloomy.
"Why aren't you saying anything? Don't you want to kill Zhou Yang?" the Empress said angrily.
"Your Highness, Zhou Yang killed Wuji. Do you think I don't want to kill him?" Zhao Wuhou clenched his fists.
"Then you have to give me an idea."
"Idea? Your Highness, Zhou Yang is now a prince. The king even plans to pass the throne to him. How can I kill him? "Zhao Wuhou said angrily.
For a moment, the hall was silent.
"Mother, I have an idea."
Just then, Long Jue suddenly said.
"You have an idea? Say it!" the Empress said happily.
"Mother, although Zhou Yang has father's protection, his future depends on whether he is willing to acknowledge his ancestors or not. As long as we don't let him do so, will we have a chance?" Long Jue sneered.
"Hmph, he is stubborn today. Will he reject the title of Crown Prince? Perhaps he will enter the palace to see the king tomorrow," Zhao Wuhou said disdainfully.
"I know Zhou Yang very well. He is arrogant and impulsive. As long as we continue to provoke and mock him, I'm afraid he won't go even if he wants to."
"What can we do? What if he is shameless and insists on entering the palace?" Zhao Wuhou said angrily. "Don't forget, we still have a trump card. That is Ye Zhining."
"Ye Zhining!"
Everyone was stunned and confused.
"That's right. Zhou Yang once said that he would kill Ye Zhining with his own hands. We can give him this chance. I think even father won't interfere with the grudge between him and Ye Zhining."
"You mean to let us do something to Ye Zhining and then kill him with a borrowed knife?" the Empress asked.
"Mother is wise. Before I came, I already put a Blood Fusion Pill on Ye Zhining."
"Good. The power of the Blood Fusion Pill is enough to kill Zhou Yang. But Third Highness, are you really willing to do it? As far as I know, you have nurtured him for a long time. "
Long Jue smiled and said, "It's precisely because he has been nurtured for a long time that he has to be used on a blade. However, even I didn't expect Zhou Yang to become so tyrannical. Furthermore, he has the bloodline of my royal family."
"Let's cut the crap. The king gave him seven days. We'll stall for time first. As long as he doesn't enter the palace, we won't make a move. Once he attacks, we'll let Ye Zhining take action."
"Alright, I will inform my father now. When the time comes, the Nangong Family will do their best to help."
Everyone nodded, their eyes filled with murderous intent.
In the next few days, there would be people declaring that they wanted to challenge Zhou Yang at almost every moment in the surroundings of the Star Moon Tower. Their words were extremely vicious, and there were even people who scolded Zhou Yang for the sake of imperial power and riches, forgetting his mother and acknowledging the Empress as his mother.
"It's said that Zhou Yang is of royal blood and will soon become the crown prince."
"Impossible. He said that he would avenge his mother."
"How is that possible? His mother was killed by the Empress. Could it be that he dares to seek revenge on the Empress? If so, he will not be able to keep his position as a prince."
"That's just a joke. If he wanted to kill her, he would have done it that day. If he didn't do it, it's obvious that he wants to become the crown prince."
"That's right. He didn't agree at that time because he didn't want to bear the infamy …"
The noise never stopped. At first, Zhou Yang would still listen to it, but later on, he simply shut his senses.
These people were obviously sent by the Empress. Their purpose was to use provocation to stop him from entering the palace.
However, he had never thought of entering the palace. Imperial power and riches were nothing to him. This seemingly powerful Dragon Martial Country was just a small place in the eyes of a true powerhouse.
So what?!
Seven days passed very quickly. The Empress, who was deep in the palace, finally heaved a sigh of relief. She brought Marquis Zhao Wuhou and a group of people to see Long Kong.
Long Kong's expression did not look good. The deadline of seven days had passed, but Zhou Yang had not entered the palace.
As the king of a country, he naturally knew where Zhou Yang was.
He was clearly in the imperial city, but he was unwilling to enter the palace to acknowledge him as his father.
He was a Heaven Strength Realm powerhouse and the king of Dragon Martial Country. How could he not be moved by such an identity? He was not even comparable to Zhou Zhan Tian, who was almost beheaded in public.
"I know why you are here. Since he is unwilling to acknowledge me as his father, then let him leave. Dragon Martial Country does not need a prince like him. The position of crown prince will be chosen between the eldest and the third."
After Long Kong finished speaking, he turned and left. He had many sons. Although it was a pity to lose Zhou Yang, it was just a pity.
The Empress was delighted. After Long Kong left, she looked at Marquis Zhao Wuhou and said, "Do you understand what the king means?"
"I understand. Later, I will give him a chance to leave the imperial city. However, if he does not cherish the chance, then don't blame us," Marquis Zhao Wuhou laughed coldly.
"Even if he leaves the imperial city, the powerhouses of the Nangong Clan will be waiting for him outside the city. He will not live to see tomorrow's sun."
After Long Kong finished speaking, the Empress turned and walked out. Today, she wanted to see Zhou Yang die with her own eyes.
Star Moon Tower.
The deadline of seven days had passed. At that moment, the Star Moon Tower was completely surrounded. Everyone was waiting for Zhou Yang to come out.
However, after waiting for an hour, there was still no movement from the Star Moon Tower.
"Zhou Yang, the imperial edict has arrived. Come out and receive it!"
With a loud shout, an extremely luxurious carriage came slowly under the protection of a few hundred Dragon Guards. At the front, Marquis Zhao Wuhou and the Third Prince were riding ferocious beasts, looking majestic.
"Hmph, since you do not even respect the imperial edict, it seems that you really do not respect Dragon Martial Country." Marquis Zhao Wuhou shouted angrily. After jumping off his mount, he waved his hand. The next moment, the entire Star Moon Tower collapsed in the wind.
However, there was a small house that stood tall in the wind, quietly suspended in mid-air.
"Eh?"
Marquis Zhao Wuhou frowned and looked at the Empress behind him.
"Nangong Hui, go and test him."
The Empress looked at a Gold Star Realm martial artist beside her and said.
"Understood."
Nangong Hui nodded and immediately flew out, thrusting his sword towards the small house that was floating in mid-air.
However, at that moment, a ray of blood light flew out from within the house and instantly enveloped Nangong Hui. A Gold Star Realm martial artist was actually fixed in mid-air just like that.
"Air Stabilizing Kill!"
With a cold shout, Nangong Hui exploded into a mist of blood in the next moment.
Hiss …
Everyone gasped. A Gold Star Realm martial artist had died before even coming face to face.
"You have come at the right time."
A cold voice sounded from within the mist of blood, and Zhou Yang slowly descended from the sky.
"His hair …"
In the eyes of the crowd, Zhou Yang had a head full of white hair, and his expression was as cold as that of a god of death.
"He has not reached the Disha Realm!"
Marquis Zhao Wuhou wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead. What he was most afraid of was that Zhou Yang had broken through to the Disha Realm. If that was the case, even he would not be confident.
