"Even so, only a few people of the Meteor Sect can use such a luxurious divine tool!" someone explained. And, everyone else heaved a sigh of relief. After all, everyone in the Meteor Sect could get their hands on such a divine tool. Then, they wouldn't be able to stay in the Meteor Sect anymore. In fact, the Meteor Sect might not necessarily use them.
After all, the Meteor Sect was the ruler of the entire Meteor World. So, their vision wasn't ordinary. So, it was impossible for an ordinary person to enter their ranks.
Everyone's gazes followed the people of the Meteor Sect as they rushed into the heavenly pit. And, a clamor of discussion broke out.
"The people of the Meteor Sect can't wait any longer. They're always the fastest to act every time the Bereaved appears. However, they've sent such a huge lineup just because they heard that some members of the Bereaved might appear this time. Moreover, none of those people are below the sage realm. It's too dreadful!" someone exclaimed.
"Yes. A large number of experts have also arrived besides the people of the Meteor Sect. So, what can we do with these strong people here?" someone said in an unwilling manner. After all, their strength was too low. So, they would have to fight with their lives if they wanted to obtain a great fortune.
"Many people can't sit still anymore. There aren't many people left in the Bereaved. However, they still have a lot of wealth left behind. Many people have reached the sky in a single bound because they had captured the Bereaved. And, they had obtained a heaven-shaking inheritance!"
Everyone guessed that this would give rise to a reign of terror. Many experts would also come. However, the majority of people wouldn't be able to benefit from this. And, these people would most likely be buried here.
However, the two of them didn't stay in this restaurant any longer. That was because the other members of the Imperial Clan had arrived at almost the same time. And, they had arrived in a grandiose manner for a while. A large group of sage experts had arrived. Their momentum wasn't inferior to that of the experts of the Meteor Sect. However, they didn't seem as united as the experts of the Meteor Sect.
Everyone knew that this should be the moment that would decide the outcome of the battle. Whether or not they could obtain the throne would depend on whether or not they could gather enough information. After all, the matter of obtaining the exact information about the appearance of the Bereaved would be settled.
Nobody was willing to let others beat them to it. However, they had also heard about that sage expert's tragic death after he had gone down. So, they didn't dare to casually go down even if they had arrived. Therefore, they could only gather together, and go down together. Then, they would make their own calculations.
Most of the princes hadn't come. They had only sent their competent subordinates because most of the princes hadn't reached the sage realm yet. So, they would only be a hindrance if they had come. In fact, they might even lose their lives in the end. However, a few princes had still come.
"I've heard that the twenty-third brother has been in the limelight recently. He has recruited an alchemy grandmaster. That grandmaster is quite powerful. He has defeated the fourth brother's force in the blink of an eye!" A young man who seemed to be in his thirties among the princes said in a steady manner. One could tell from the way other people addressed him that he was the Second Prince among the princes.
The Fourth Prince had been beheaded, and the First Prince had been suppressed. So, he had naturally become the eldest son. Therefore, he had the greatest advantage among the princes who were vying for the throne. He had the most supporters as well. There were many rumors that the First Prince had taken the risk to go to the Imperial Palace because he had been forced by the Second Prince. He had felt that he wouldn't be able to compete with his second brother through normal means. So, he had no choice but to take the extreme path. Therefore, he had been suppressed by the Wei Wu State's Martial Emperor.
He was surrounded by a group of experts. They were the subordinates he had recruited. Many of them had fierce looks in their eyes. There were all kinds of people here. However, almost all of them were sage level experts. In fact, these people were famous in the entire Great Wei Empire in the early years. "It's indeed unexpected.
The Fourth Brother is an eccentric person. However, his vision has always been good. I've always wanted to recruit that Dwarf Tiger. However, I hadn't expected that he would fall into the hands of the Fourth Brother. His strength isn't bad. However, he wasn't a match for that Great Master Long. He was crippled in just a few moves. He couldn't even keep his Holy Sword. Even a peak level sage expert wasn't a match for him. I don't know where he comes from! "another prince beside him said at this time. He looked somewhat similar to the Second Prince. However, he seemed a bit weak in comparison. However, everyone knew that this was an illusion. After all, this was the Third Prince who had made illustrious military exploits in the entire Great Wei Empire. He had fought in all directions, and had expanded the Great Wei Empire's territory.
"There are so many experts in this world. So, it's not strange that I don't know a few of them!" There was another powerful prince beside the Third Prince. He had a profound aura. His eyes were like torches. He had muscular arms and a thin waist. He looked very valiant. He was another expert among the princes — the Seventh Prince.
Ye Xiwen noticed that among the forces of the princes, these three princes were the leaders, and they also had the most number of experts following them. Including the fourth prince who had died earlier, these four princes were the four great princes among the many princes, and they had the most number of followers.
The forces of the other princes basically had one or two sage experts to keep up appearances. It was estimated that they wouldn't have chosen to fight for the throne if they had fought for it with their strength. After all, it would only be a dead end for them if they had come. Their strength wouldn't have any other effect apart from striking a stone with an egg.
However, this wasn't a competition of strength. Instead, it was a competition of who could find the news of the Lost Race first. Who would dare to oppose them if they could find the news of the Lost Race and ascend the throne with the support of the Wei Empire's Martial Emperor? Their current strength wasn't as good as their brothers. However, they would be able to mobilize the Imperial Clan's consecrators after they took control of the overall situation of the entire empire. How could these people compare to them?
Many princes had played the role of bystanders in the fight for the throne. However, they also had such thoughts.
An old man dressed in black clothes stood silently on one side outside the forces of these princes. He had a formidable aura, and it was difficult to fathom his strength. Ye Xiwen knew that this should be the consecrator of the Imperial Clan who had gathered everyone.
The Imperial Clan had also dispatched a very formidable consecrator to lead the forces of these princes. However, these princes obviously didn't take this old consecrator seriously.
Ye Xiwen and Mu Jiao had changed into the moon-white robes of the Northern Dipper Organization, and had arrived at the gathering place. This immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Suddenly, the voice of the Wood Dragon came from Ye Xiwen's side.
"Ye Xiwen, these princes are very courageous at this time. They have dared to show up. They are courting death. These three princes are the biggest competitors of the Twenty-third Prince. What competition will he be afraid of as long as he kills them? The others are certainly not a match for the Twenty-third Prince! "
The Wood Dragon's proposal had moved Ye Xiwen's heart. And, his eyes suddenly lit up. The competition would be fierce. It would be difficult to determine who would ascend to the throne in the end. However, what if the competitors were to die? Would Wei Wu have any other way apart from appointing the Twenty-third Prince as the Emperor?
This was the simplest and most direct method.
However, this method could be tried!
"Humph, do you see? The two experts recruited by the Fourth Brother have arrived. The one wearing the dragon-shaped mask is the so-called Great Master Long. It is said that he is a great master of alchemy. Even Jiang Zhou Qing has personally come to invite him to participate in the alchemy gathering that will take place 20 years from now!" the Second Prince's sharp eyes had seen Ye Xiwen's arrival.
He sighed with emotion in his heart. Let alone recruiting a great master of alchemy … he would've wanted to recruit him even if he had become the Emperor of the Great Wei Empire. However, he hadn't expected that he would be recruited by the Twenty-third Brother.
"I've heard that this great master of alchemy seems very arrogant. Tsk tsk, Seventh Brother, you weren't there that day. So, you didn't see him crossing the tribulation that day. Tribulation clouds blotted out the sky and covered the earth. I've never seen someone crossing the sage realm tribulation like this!" The Third Prince smiled, and faintly glanced at the Seventh Prince as he said. The Seventh Prince was known as the number one expert among the younger generation of the Imperial Clan. He was a supreme expert at the peak of the sage realm at such a young age. In fact, he was only half a step away from entering the Sage Small Perfection realm. His talent was indeed the best among his many brothers.
However, the Seventh Prince hadn't been in the city when Ye Xiwen had crossed the tribulation. He had gone out of the city to take care of other matters.
"He's just a great master of alchemy … that's all. He's nothing but a dog raised by our Imperial Clan! " The Seventh Prince said disdainfully. They didn't have many strong experts in their hands. However, there were still many seniors with profound cultivation in the Imperial Clan.
Everyone in the Imperial Family was a martial arts expert in order to rule the huge Great Wei State. So, it was hard to say how many martial arts experts had been born in the Imperial Family for so many years. And, they were hiding behind the scenes. It was needless to say that the dying Old Emperor was an expert of the sage realm.
In his opinion, it wouldn't be a problem to deal with these people if he could ascend to the throne.
"That Twenty-third Prince is the son of a lowly servant girl. He doesn't even dare to come here for such a big event. How can he be the Emperor of my Great Wei State if he doesn't have the guts?" The Seventh Prince sneered and said. He simply didn't put the Twenty-third Prince's force in his eyes. However, the people in the surroundings looked as if this was a common occurrence. It was obvious that they were already accustomed to the Seventh Prince's condescension.
"What's so great about borrowing his subordinates? I don't believe that a person who has just crossed the sage realm tribulation can be so great!" The Seventh Prince's eyes flickered. "However, he must've had some fortuitous encounter since he has reached this step at such a young age. So, he should hand it over to me. After all, only I deserve it!"
Ye Xiwen had barely entered the venue when he suddenly felt a murderous intention lock onto him. He hadn't even reacted when a battle spear had already pierced towards him.
