nIn the Qingyun Mountain Range, the mountains were steep and the rocks were odd-shaped.
nSu Changyu slowly opened his eyes.
n
n
nAt this moment, he felt nauseous.
n‘Damn it.’
n‘Why is there always a problem with the array formation?’
nWhen he was in the Great Qian Dynasty, the error occurred because he had moved the array disc.
n
n
nHowever, he didn’t do anything this time.
n‘Are the imperial array formations just capable of this?’
nHe wanted to vomit.
n“Is this the Qingyun Mountain Range?”
n
n
nSu Changyu looked at his surroundings and immediately recognized it.
n“Okay, it’s not too bad, the position has merely shifted by a little.”
nAlthough Su Changyu felt thankful, he would get lost again if it was a different place.
nJust as he got up and headed towards the direction of the Qingyun Dao Sect, he discovered that something was amiss.
n‘Where’s Ye Ping?’
n‘Ye Ping was clearly with me, how did he go missing?’
n
n
n‘Little Junior Brother.’
nHe called out intermittently in the mountains.
nSu Changyu searched around, but he didn’t find any trace of Ye Ping’s whereabouts.
nHe knew that Ye Ping was probably lost and sent elsewhere by the Teleportation Array.
nHowever, he thought that the problem shouldn’t be too severe since Ye Ping wasn’t like him who often got lost.
nWhile thinking about it, Su Changyu returned to the Qingyun Dao Sect.
nWhen he was close to the Qingyun Dao Sect, he felt a wave of Sword Qi spreading around.
nThat made him confused about what was going on.
n
n
n‘Why is there residual Sword Qi in the Qingyun Dao Sect?’
n‘I was not in the sect. Did someone practice swordsmanship and give off the Sword Qi?’
nHe walked into the Qingyun Dao Sect, only to realize that there was no one at all.
nThere was not a single soul.
nThat made him a little confused because his junior sisters and junior brothers didn’t like going down the mountain.
nEven if Xiao Muxue and Wang Zhuoyu left, Daoist Tai Hua would stay in the sect. There had to be someone at home.
nFor some reason, Su Changyu had an ominous feeling.
nHe had been having a bad premonition some time ago.
nHe searched the entire Qingyun Dao Sect, but there was not a single soul, which made him feel more and more uneasy. He headed to the last possible place of the sect, the rear cliff.
nSu Changyu quickly arrived at the rear cliff.
nWhen he arrived, he was suddenly stunned.
nHe stared at the situation before him in shock and disbelief.
n“Master!”
n
n
nSu Changyu scurried over and looked at Daoist Tai Hua who was lying motionlessly on the cliff.
nHe picked up Daoist Tai Hua’s stiff body. The blood of his body seemed to have been washed away by the rain, and Su Changyu’s eyes were full of mania.
n‘What’s going on?’
n‘Why would Master die?’
nSu Changyu’s brain was in chaos as he was full of disbelief.
nHe was raised by Daoist Tai Hua since he was a child, and Daoist Tai Hua was just like his father.
nHow could he accept seeing Daoist Tai Hua dead at this moment?
nSu Changyu was no longer indifferent as his face was covered in misery and astonishment. After his cultivation level had increased, it was as if nothing could make his emotions fluctuate anymore.
nAt this moment, he could no longer be indifferent.
n“Master!”
nSu Changyu dragged Daoist Tai Hua’s corpse and roared into the sky while his feelings of misery spread throughout the mountain range.
nDragging the cold and stiff corpse, he stayed still while crystalline tears flowed and rolled down his cheeks gently.
nDuring his trip out this time, he found his biological father, but he understood that the Qingyun Dao Sect was his home and that Daoist Tai Hua was akin to his father.
nHowever, Ye Ping had been teleported to some other place by the array formation.
nHe didn’t know what happened to the Qingyun Dao Sect either. His Junior Sisters and Junior Brothers were not around while his master, Daoist Tai Hua, had turned into a cold corpse.
nThe memories he had in the Qingyun Dao Sect in the past and Daoist Tai Hua’s kind and benevolent face appeared in his mind.
nSu Changyu sobbed miserably and hugged the cold corpse in his arms.
n“Huh?”
nHis whistle was full of misery and endless murderous intent. His aura was like a wind that made the flowers and trees of the Qingyun Dao Sect and Qingyun Mountain shake. The leaves flew in the wind.
nSu Changyu’s black hair seemed to have withered as it turned white.
nHe maintained the same action and dragged Daoist Tai Hua along quietly.
nAt this moment, there were two faint words beside Daoist Tai Hua.
n“Heavenly fate.”
nThe two words were emitting a sanguine light.
nIn the next moment, two bloodied words shone at Su Changyu’s forehead.
nAt this moment, in the Great Xia Dynasty.
nThe emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty arrived in the Crown Prince’s hall with unconcealed fury in his gaze.
nXia Qian was seated calmly because at this point, there was no longer anything that he was afraid of.
n“Xia Qian!”
nThe emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty hollered furiously while looking at the Crown Prince.
n“Greetings, Father.”
nXia Qian got up and looked at the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty. His expression was calm and so was his voice as he did not show the slightest trace of panic.
n“Don’t you have anything to say at this point?”
nThe emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty asked when he saw how calm Xia Qian was.
nHe was quite surprised because he didn’t expect Xia Qian to be so calm, which was unlike his usual self.
nThat made him even more furious because Xia Qian actually had the audacity to harm his beloved son while still remaining so calm.
n“I don’t know what you mean, Father.”
nXia Qian said in a strangely calm tone. It was indescribably bizarre.
n“Don’t you know what you’ve done? Why do you need me to tell you?”
nThe emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty asked in a cold voice.
n“Please tell me, Father.”
nXia Qian continued.
n“The array formation platform.”
nXia Qian clipped.
nAfter he said that, it was dead silent in the Crown Prince’s hall.
nXia Qian said calmly while staring at the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, “Father, you forced me into this.”
n“If it weren’t for you, why would I have done such a thing?”
n“Apart from the Tenth Prince, have you ever cared about me?”
n“I know that you have never forgotten the Tenth Prince, and this position of the Crown Prince didn’t belong to me in the first place. I know you gave it to me only because the Tenth Prince went missing.”
n“Since I ascended the position of the Crown Prince, I’ve been living in panic everyday and I couldn’t eat or sleep well.”
n“The Tenth Prince is the only one I’m afraid of.”
n“However, what I’m worried about has finally happened.”
nXia Qian said.
n“Ridiculous.”
n“This is absolutely ridiculous!”
n“You’re making excuses for yourself!”
nAfter hearing his words, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty rebuked him.
nIndeed, the Crown Prince had a point. If not for the fact that Su Changyu, the Tenth Prince, had gone missing, Xia Qian wouldn’t have been the Crown Prince.
nHowever, Xia Qian was already the Crown Prince.
nHe was the Crown Prince whom the emperor had conferred.
nIn this situation, Xia Qian’s words seemed to be unconvincing.
n“Hah!”
nXia Qian sneered and continued, “Father, isn’t that what you think?”
n“Do you dare to say that you didn’t have such thoughts after you traveled to the Qingyun Dao Sect and met the Tenth Prince?”
n“Since you returned to the Qingyun Dao Sect, you’ve expressed your favoritism more than ever.”
n“That day you took away my duties and rights to supervise the country, I remembered your words clearly. You asked me if I really thought that you wouldn’t dare to replace me as the Crown Prince.”
n“At that time, I thought that I had done something wrong, but that was not the case.”
n“This time, not only did you bring the Tenth Prince back to the palace, you even changed your mind and called off the marriage alliance between the Great Xia Dynasty and the Great Ze Dynasty because of his request.”
n“Do you know how much effort I had put into this matter? Yet, you changed your mind because of the Tenth Prince and even reprimanded me.”
n“If you’re already behaving like this now, what about in the future!?!”
n“Will you also agree without hesitation if he wants to become the Crown Prince?”
n“After all, this position belongs to him in the first place.”
nXia Qian sounded extremely aggrieved.
nHowever, his voice was bizarrely calm.
n“So, you decided to harm your brother because of this.”
n“Aren’t you scared that I’ll strip you of your position!?!”
nThe emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty asked with an expressionless face.
nHe knew that the Crown Prince would be aggrieved and develop that thought.
nHowever, he never thought that the Crown Prince would have such intense thoughts that would spur him to kill his brother.
n“I’m scared.”
n“But Father, if you do that, what’s going to happen to the Great Xia Dynasty?”
nXia Qian looked at the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty with a terrifyingly calm gaze.
n
