To the north of Chaotian Hall, Yan Chuan sat on the dragon throne, dressed in a black dragon robe and wearing a black jade imperial crown. He held the armrest of the throne and calmly looked down at the officials.
Liu Jin stood to the side, holding a horsetail whisk.
The hall was filled with a deathly aura.
"Yan Qiuyu is here!" a voice called out from outside the hall.
"Bring him in!" Yan Chuan sternly said.
In the great hall, almost all the officials and the Yan Family clansmen tensed up as they quietly looked outside the great hall.
It was Liu Gang who led them here. Liu Gang walked in the front while four factory guards escorted Yan Qiuyu behind him.
"Your Majesty, Yan Qiuyu is here!" Liu Gang respectfully bowed.
Following that, Liu Gang dismissed the guards and stood among the officials. At this moment, the four commanders were not present, so Liu Gang naturally stood at the first position on the left!
Yan Chuan sat on the dragon throne while Yan Qiuyu stood in the middle of the hall. The two of them looked at each other.
The hall was completely silent.
"Yan Qiuyu, We have treated you well!" Yan Chuan took a deep breath.
Yan Chuan had indeed treated Yan Qiuyu well. Marquis Yan? Although it was only a marquis, it was the highest noble title at the time of Great Zhen's founding. Even the founding heroes like Yi Feng, Liu Gang, and Huo Guang were only marquises.
It wasn't that Yan Chuan didn't want to set up dukes, but that Great Zhen still had a long way to go. They could only be promoted when their merits were sufficient. However, marquis was a lifelong thing. The stronger Great Zhen became, the harder it would be to fight for a marquis.
Apart from the emperor and empress, Yan Qiuyu had the advantage of being a blood relative.
Even so, Yan Qiuyu still wasn't satisfied.
Back then, Yan Qiuyu had given up the throne in exchange for entering the cultivation world. Now that Yan Chuan had given it to him, Yan Qiuyu still betrayed him?
Yan Chuan stared at Yan Qiuyu.
Yan Qiuyu's emotions were extremely calm.
Looking at Yan Chuan, Yan Qiuyu took a deep breath and smiled softly, "I knew this day would come!"
"Oh?" The ministers of Great Zhen looked at Yan Qiuyu in surprise.
Looking at Yan Chuan on the dragon throne, Yan Qiuyu bitterly said, "In the past, even as an emperor, there would be a day when I would die. That's why I'm afraid of death. In order to step onto the path of cultivation and live forever, I'm willing to give up everything!"
"But when I stepped onto the path of cultivation, I realized that I wasn't pursuing longevity because I was afraid of death. It was because I was afraid of losing my authority. I was afraid of losing the authority that I possessed throughout the world!" Yan Qiuyu spoke bitterly.
The hall was silent as Yan Chuan stared fixedly at Yan Qiuyu.
"I lost the throne. At first, although I was unwilling, I also knew that everything was impossible. However, one day, a group of people suddenly came to my residence. They were willing to give me power and help me. Moreover, my strength really increased. In my heart, I believed that I could replace you and rule the world for tens of thousands of years! "Yan Qiuyu said bitterly.
"I knew that I would fail, but I still wanted to try. Even if my body was crushed, I still wanted to try! My ambition made me throw caution to the wind! "Yan Qiuyu's face suddenly twisted.
The officials in the hall glared at Yan Qiuyu.
However, Yan Chuan just watched quietly.
"Ha, hahahaha, in the end, I failed. You, Yan Chuan, are indeed stronger than me!" Yan Qiuyu suddenly laughed bleakly.
"You thought you would fail? Did you think about the consequences of failure? "Yan Chuan asked in a low voice.
Yan Qiuyu looked at Yan Chuan.
