A few hours later.
Dayu Imperial Tomb.
Lu Che has already left the palace.
After bidding farewell to Emperor Wu, he did not return to his own residence, but quietly came to the imperial mausoleum.
At this moment, he was standing alone in front of two brand new graves, silent.
There was silence in the imperial mausoleum.
The grass is green and various flowers are blooming.
A breeze blew, making the leaves rustle, as if they were missing the deceased.
As his clothes tumbled, Lu Che stared blankly at the two brand new tombstones, his expression dazed. Only his thinly pursed lips revealed his inner turmoil.
"The Fourth Prince Lu Jiangzhimu!"
"The tomb of the seventh prince Lu Xing!"
Carved on the tombstone were the names of the two deceased princes!
Qingniao had already told him about this when he was on his way to Wanfa Sword Sect to pick him up and take him back to Divine Dynasty.
With Emperor Wu seriously injured and Dayu in decline, people in the country were already in turmoil and chaos was rampant.
People were in panic, wars broke out everywhere, and even the princes began to be targeted by people with evil intentions and suffered various assassination attempts!
The fourth prince and the seventh prince died in that assassination!
Standing quietly in front of the two graves, Lu Che's face was as calm as water, but countless memories of the past flooded into his mind like a tide.
He could still clearly remember the doting expressions on the faces of his fourth and seventh brothers when he left Dayu.
They came in person to see us off, their eyes full of concern and reluctance, and they have never stopped sending greetings and providing various kinds of help over the past ten years.
During his time in the Wanfa Sword Sect, whenever he needed resources or had any requests, they would always satisfy them without hesitation and unconditionally.
They truly love and pamper their youngest brother from the bottom of their hearts.
But now, when he returns again, they are separated from each other forever and can never see them again!
I can't even share with them the joy of improving my cultivation and becoming a land immortal!
Memories surged in his chest like a tide, like a sharp blade, piercing Lu Che's heart fiercely, making his eyes even colder and more stern, and endless blood and fire surged like a crazy undercurrent!
The rage was raging and the murderous intent was overwhelming!
“Cough cough cough…”
At this moment, a weak cough suddenly broke the silence.
However, it was the eldest prince Lu Yuan who had also been seriously injured in various assassinations and arrived.
He used to be handsome and tall, but now he was pale and listless, completely different from the high-spirited Crown Prince he once was.
Lu Yuan walked unsteadily to the grave and spoke slowly in a slightly hoarse voice.
"Ninth brother, you came back too late and didn't get to see Fourth and Seventh Brothers for the last time..."
There was a look of sorrow in his eyes and his tone was full of regret and sadness.
Lu Che turned slowly.
Looking at the eldest prince's appearance, his expression became more and more serene, and the murderous intent in his deep eyes became stronger and stronger.
Although the eldest prince did not die in the various assassination attempts, Lu Che's perception was so sharp that he easily detected the various shocking and serious injuries in his body!
This also made Lu Che's eyes full of anger, and the murderous intent in his heart became more and more boiling!
The Lu family, as a royal family, has one extremely rare thing.
That is, there is no intrigue or struggle for power among the princes. Instead, they are respectful to each other and have a very deep relationship.
The reason for this is that Emperor Wu is in his prime, wise and powerful, and the princes only need to concentrate on improving their own cultivation and continue to grow through experience.
Because of this, the nine princes never had the idea of competing for the throne. Instead, they helped each other and lived in close friendship.
Lu Che has always cherished this kind of family atmosphere.
But now, this beauty has been ruthlessly broken!
Those prince brothers were either killed or injured, and the rest were plagued by troubles and crises all day long.
So much so that the entire royal family was shrouded in a haze!
Looking at the weak and listless appearance of the eldest prince, Lu Che's expression was stern, and with murderous intent surging in his heart, he spoke coldly.
"Guhua Holy Land, right?!"
He stared at the eldest prince, gritting his teeth as he asked.
Every word seemed to be squeezed out from between teeth.
The eldest prince was stunned when he heard this.
As if he hadn't expected Lu Che to know the truth, he subconsciously asked back:
"You know everything?"
"Father told you?!"
Lu Che did not answer, but just looked at him quietly.
The eldest prince was stunned for a moment, sighed deeply, and said:
"You'll know eventually, so it doesn't hurt to tell you!"
"It is indeed the Ancient Hua Holy Land!!"
Speaking of the Guhua Holy Land, he immediately gritted his teeth, his eyes were about to blaze with fire, and even his pale face turned red.
After a pause, he continued in a low voice to narrate the whole story.
Everything was just as Lu Che thought!
The Guhua Holy Land coveted Dayu's rich resources and forcefully demanded Dayu's surrender, but Emperor Wu rejected it without hesitation.
But it also angered the Guhua Holy Land!
Afterwards, Dayu began to encounter setbacks everywhere and fell into its current precarious situation!
Although the Ancient Hua Holy Land did not take any action openly, everyone could see that it was the Ancient Hua Holy Land that was secretly intervening and adding fuel to the fire, or even planning the action themselves!
When talking about this, the eldest prince's face was full of resentment and he gnashed his teeth in anger.
The knuckles of his clenched fists turned white from the force, and even his body was shaking uncontrollably!
And at the same time.
After listening to the eldest prince's story and confirming his thoughts.
Lu Che's eyes instantly burst into astonishing indifference and sharpness, and his murderous intent was almost boiling!
“It is indeed so!”
"Guhua Holy Land, right?! I understand!"
He muttered to himself in a hoarse voice and indifference.
The terrifying power of the land immortal realm shook and rolled violently around him, as violent and terrifying as a surging black wave, as if it would erupt at any time and destroy the heavens!
He knew very well that the Dayu Divine Dynasty was in turmoil, with five sects, two academies and one religion stirring up trouble within, and various forces outside watching covetously and secretly coveting it. It seemed that the country was surrounded by crises and had many risk factors.
But in fact, there is only one reason for all this turmoil and chaos.
Ancient Hua Holy Land!
This is the fundamental reason why Dayu is now in a precarious situation!
Why did the Wanfa Sword Sect abandon him, judge him, and even rush to declare that they would sever all ties with him, Lu Che, and the Great Yu Divine Dynasty, unwilling to have any further involvement?
Moreover, they did it with such fanfare, even at the risk of being scolded as ungrateful, fearing that the world would not know?
This is definitely not just because Emperor Wu was seriously injured.
Or rather, this is just one of the reasons.
What’s more important is that Dayu had offended the Guhua Holy Land and was targeted by this behemoth that towered above the nine heavens!
That's why the Wanfa Sword Sect is so eager to distance itself from the matter, fearing that it will be implicated.
