Chapter 1487: Was He Really About to Lose?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The old Emperor could not help but shiver when he saw Master Shao’s miserable state. If his third son could treat Master Shao like this, what about him?

He did not expect his third son to show mercy to him because he was his father.

After all, he did not show mercy to his third son either. Instead, he attacked him bluntly and wanted to kill him.

His third son was not dead, and he was at his mercy. Would he end up like Master Shao?

“T-Third Son… You…”

He wanted to say something, but Eldest Brother Yan shot him a sharp look, scaring him into silence.

Master Shao’s mouth hurt so much that he could not say a word. Trembling, he could not even shoot Eldest Brother Yan a fierce glare.

If not for the guards restraining him, he would have fallen to the ground.

The Third Prince was really ruthless. He was not much more benevolent than Prince Zhan Yun. He had misjudged him!

“Take him away,” Eldest Brother Yan instructed the guard.

After the guard dragged Master Shao away, he looked at the old Emperor.

“Father, you must be tired after a busy day. I won’t disturb your rest here. I’ll take my leave.”

With that, he left with the guards, leaving the old Emperor alone.

The old Emperor was speechless. He did not understand how things had turned out like this.

Shouldn’t Master Shao be here to help him? Shouldn’t he kill his unfilial son and help him secure the throne?

Not only did Master Shao want his abdication edict, but his third son even defeated him. Master Shao did not even have the strength to fight back!

Was he really about to lose?

He gritted his teeth. He felt indignant, but did it matter? He had not forgotten that his third son had rescued him with the imperial guards.

This unfilial son actually subdued his imperial guards! He now had nothing besides his shadow guards, right?

Those ministers claimed to be on his side and promised to help him clean up the palace. However, the Third Prince had taken all their power and authority. How could those fence sitters still stand behind him, the Emperor?

It would not be long before the ministers sided with the Third Prince.

“I should have strangled him to death when he was born!” he cursed hatefully.

Qian Jiyun and An Jiuyue, who were about to leave, stopped in their tracks.

An Jiuyue looked up at Qian Jiyun. He understood and waved his hand, sending a stream of Original Soul energy towards the old Emperor.

They heard the old Emperor fall forward and hit his face on the door sill. He screamed, but no one came to help him.

“Well-deserved!” An Jiuyue exclaimed calmly.

She had never seen such a disgusting person. If he were not the emperor, she would have attacked him long ago. Why would she wait until now?

At the Prince Zhan Yun Residence…

The two of them left the palace and wandered around the streets before returning to the Prince Zhan Yun Residence, only to find that Eldest Brother Yan had been waiting for them.

Eldest Brother Yan entered the Prince Zhan Yun Residence with Master Shao, who was held captive.

An Jiuyue looked at Master Shao’s bruises. She did not feel much when she saw them from afar, but now that she saw them up close, she could not help but grin.
