"It's not me … It's really not me … Father, please spare me … Father, please spare me!" The Fifth Prince was so scared that he was about to collapse. Looking at his second brother's miserable state, he couldn't believe that this was real.
The Emperor wanted to rush forward but was stopped by a few important officials.
But how could the power of the Metal Stone Realm be stopped so easily … The Emperor seemed determined to kill his son. His eyes were filled with murderous intent.
At this moment, Jiang Hengyu's eyes were bloodshot. "It's really … not you?"
"It's not me, Father! Father, please investigate! " Second Brother was already dead, so there was basically no proof of this matter. The Fifth Prince's face was full of tears. "Father … we are your sons!"
"Your Majesty, you can't kill them!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, please calm down. We are not at the end of the line yet …"
"We can't prove that the Second Prince and the Fifth Prince leaked the information. Your Majesty, please calm down!"
The cold light in Jiang Hengyu's eyes didn't diminish. He didn't listen to the others and just stared at the Fifth Prince. He gritted his teeth and said, "Useless trash! What's the use of keeping you? "
The Fifth Prince threw caution to the wind and cried, "Why is it us? Big Brother and Fourth Brother are here, why is it us?! "
The Eldest Prince and the Fourth Prince both frowned, their hearts filled with anger. However, both of them didn't say anything at this time.
Although the emperor looked like he was crazy, as his sons, they knew very well that their father was extremely talented and had an outstanding IQ. This matter … was most likely leaked by the Second Prince and the Fifth Prince.
Even if it wasn't intentional, it was definitely them!
At the side, the officials persuaded and knelt on the ground to beg. The Second Prince, whose head had been split in half, was already dead. Blood flowed all over the floor. The smell of blood wafted through the entire golden hall, chilling everyone's heart.
No one would have thought that the Emperor would kill his own son in a fit of rage.
Moreover, the Second Prince was considered to be more outstanding among the princes.
At this time, Jiang Hengyu threw away the knife in his hand. The people around him finally heaved a sigh of relief.
After that, Jiang Hengyu looked at the Fifth Prince, gritted his teeth and said, "We've worked so hard … to instigate Da Xia's blind crown prince to betray us. With this plan, we can eliminate Da Xia once and for all! At the very least, occupying half of Da Xia was just around the corner! But because you two bastards leaked the secret, millions of soldiers were killed. You two … Even if I don't kill you, what face do you have to live in this world? "
The Fifth Prince tried to defend himself. "It really wasn't us, Father..."
"How dare you deny it!" Jiang Hengyu was seething with anger and was about to charge at the Fifth Prince.
At this moment, the monarch of Da Qi, Jiang Hengyu, was like an enraged lion.
At this time, Old Chen finally stepped forward and sighed. "Your Majesty … at this time, even if you kill them all, what's the use?"
When Jiang Hengyu heard this, he could no longer hold back his tears. They rolled down his cheeks, and he stumbled back to the dragon throne and sat down. Then, he started to bawl. "Ancestors, I'm sorry. I couldn't protect Da Qi … I deserve to die!"
Below the golden palace, the officials all knelt on the ground and wailed.
Although Da Xia's army hadn't even started fighting with Da Qi's army. But these highly intelligent officials of Great Qi all knew in their hearts why the Emperor was crazy.
To the entire Great Qi, the loss of a million soldiers was no longer a matter of breaking their bones. It was a complete loss to their foundation!
Even if Da Xia didn't take this opportunity to attack, the overall strength of Da Qi would be reduced by ten years!
The problem was, would Da Xia let go of this opportunity?
No one would believe it!
Old Chen looked at the Emperor and said, "Your Majesty … For now, I can only return to the mountain."
Jiang Hengyu's face was full of tears. The Emperor of Da Qi had never been so weak before. He looked at Old Chen and sighed. "Old Chen, go back … and don't come back! It's useless! Chu Mo's master … has unparalleled strength! I heard that … even the elders of the lonely city were sent flying by him with one slap. Who can resist such a powerful person? Da Qi's fate is full of ups and downs. We were defeated by Lin Bai in the northern grasslands. Now, we're facing Da Xia, and we're defeated by Chu Mo. Could it be that this young man … has become so powerful? "
Old Chen couldn't help but sigh. He was one of the officials of Da Qi's imperial family. Although he wasn't very strong, he wasn't weak either. He knew that there were stronger people in Da Qi's imperial family. However, the Emperor, Jiang Hengyu, had always treated him with respect.
Everyone had feelings. Although Old Chen was a cultivator, he was no exception. He almost treated Da Qi as his home.
Now that Da Qi was about to be destroyed, he felt very uncomfortable. However, he also knew that what Jiang Hengyu said made sense. That young man's master was really too scary! He shouldn't even exist in this world.
Wait …
A thought flashed through Old Chen's mind like a bolt of lightning. He murmured, "The fact that the young man's master was able to send a Xiantian stage elder flying with a single slap means that his cultivation base … is at least at the peak of the Xiantian stage! Otherwise, it's impossible for him to have such strength! Then … it won't be long. He'll definitely ascend! "
Most of the officials in the imperial court didn't quite understand the meaning behind Old Chen's words. However, the Emperor, Jiang Hengyu, understood. His eyes, which were on the verge of death, suddenly lit up with a brilliant light. He looked at Old Chen. "Really?"
Old Chen said, "There's at least an eighty to ninety percent chance!"
Jiang Hengyu's eyes became clearer and clearer. He straightened his body and said, "In other words … as long as I … can defend against a few waves of Great Xia's crazy attacks and stall for time … then, we will have a chance to turn defeat into victory?"
Old Chen nodded and said in a low voice, "That's right, Your Majesty! As long as Chu Mo's master ascends … our chance will come! Before this, this kid has almost offended all the sects in the Azure Dragon and Vermillion Bird continents! Once his master leaves, he'll die without a doubt! "
"Then when he ascends … will there be a sign?" Jiang Hengyu's voice trembled slightly.
Old Chen nodded very firmly. "Ascension … definitely has a sign!"
"Good!" Jiang Hengyu slapped the armrest of the dragon throne and gritted his teeth. "I … am going for broke! Kong Zhongda, listen to my order! "
Below, Marshal Kong Zhongda trembled and knelt there. "This old official is here!"
"I order you … to personally go to the battlefield. No matter what, you have to stall Da Xia's army for me! No soldiers … Zheng! No provisions … Zheng! No money … Zheng! "Jiang Hengyu looked at Kong Zhongda with a sinister expression." If you can't do it, then don't come back! "
The white-haired Kong Zhongda replied loudly, "Rest assured, Your Majesty. This old official will do his best until the day he dies!"
