738 Humans, untrustworthy
The ground was red, and the withered bones told a story of endless cruelty!
The Seventh Prince took a deep breath, trying to calm the turmoil in his heart. He looked at the First Prince and said calmly in a deep voice, "Brother, what do you mean by this?"
My elder brother should know that before today, although I was instigated by the family, I never wanted to compete for the throne.
Today, Fourth Brother is filled with murderous intent, and the other brothers will not let him off the hook either!
I had no choice!
We are brothers, I won't kill my elder brother!
The eldest prince gently shook his head. His eyes could not see through the truth of what his seventh brother was saying, but he no longer cared about it.
He said slowly, "Seventh Brother, you have no choice now. Protect this dynasty. The dynasty cannot be destroyed by our hands!"
"Given our father's bloodline, Seventh Brother should submit to Heaven's will!"
Slowly closing her eyes, she seemed to be awaiting her final fate, or perhaps enjoying the rare tranquility.
Involuntarily, the image of the beautiful, white-haired woman who would appear with him afterward flashed through his mind, and he thought to himself, 'Chaos is approaching; without someone to support the edifice, no one can truly control their own destiny!'
Just then, a strange gust of wind suddenly sounded, and the broken bodies of the Fifth Prince, Sixth Prince, Eighth Prince, Ninth Prince, and Fourth Prince began to slowly writhe, as if some power was surging out from their bodies.
The seventh prince was startled, realizing something was wrong, and immediately drew his sword to be on guard.
The bodies of the deceased princes gradually blurred, as if swallowed by an invisible force. Their bodies began to disintegrate into dust and vanish into nothingness.
It then slowly transformed into streams of azure energy, each stream resembling a human figure. After circling once, it shot towards the Seventh Prince without hesitation, surging forth like a flash of light.
Upon seeing this, the Seventh Prince was greatly alarmed, as if filled with immense fear. He was powerless to resist the invisible suppression emanating from the power disparity, and he should not have resisted!
The sword, which was being wildly swung, seemed impossible to lift, and the internal energy within the body seemed unable to burst forth to slash at the strange blue energy flow in front of it!
The terrifying features seemed to resemble a familiar, somewhat eerie figure from behind!
The true energy and aura surrounding his body, which had been virtually nonexistent, suddenly vanished on their own!
The azure energy flow, though seemingly ghostly, pierced through his defenses, heading straight for a point between his eyebrows and entering his consciousness.
He swung his sword with all his might to defend himself, but it was all in vain!
A chill ran through me!
The black gas rushed into the Seventh Prince's mind as if he were returning home. In no time, the Seventh Prince's face turned abnormally bluish-purple, and the veins on his forehead bulged like dragons, making him look ferocious and terrifying.
Its limbs flailed wildly, like a wild beast, fiercely struggling and roaring in resentment, like a terrifying demon.
But their struggles were in vain; they clutched their heads tightly with both hands, as if trying to squeeze out the black energy that had invaded their minds.
At this moment, it feels like I'm beating myself!
The Seventh Prince's eyes were empty and shifting, sometimes roaring ferociously, sometimes blank and lifeless, as if his soul was being devoured by the black energy.
The slow struggles grew weaker and weaker, and the eyes lost focus, leaving only chaos and darkness.
Then, after about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, an eerie silence fell. The eldest prince slowly opened his eyes, a hint of shock and suspicion in them!
The seventh prince, having calmed down, slowly rose to his feet, his expression suddenly returning to normal.
At this moment, the Seventh Prince, who had regained his senses, seemed like a different person. His eyes became cold and thoughtful, as if he was processing something.
A hint of smugness played at the corners of his mouth, as if he were secretly pleased with something, as if he had been given a new soul!
A strange smile curled at the corner of his mouth, and his voice became low and hoarse, as if he was getting used to it!
He roared, his voice filled with anger and resentment at being deceived, "Wang Tiangao, you beast, you've lied to me for thirty years!"
For the past thirty years, you have been trying to kill me and completely erase everything about me!
Haha, you didn't expect this, did you? I'm back again!
Your descendants, those who think they can control power!
They simply couldn't suppress the power within their blood!
Today, I'm going to show you who the real power truly belongs to!
What's mine is mine, and will always be mine. You stole my power, but I've returned!
The voice boomed like thunder, and his eyes flashed with a mad light and resentment, as if he had been deceived. The long-standing anger in his heart was suddenly ignited and burned with a crackling sound.
'Wang Tiangao, you beast, where are you? I'm back! You come here and die! I'm going to eat you!'
At this moment, the Seventh Prince was no longer the prince he once was; he was unrestrained and insane, as if he wanted to release all his hatred and anger through his incoherent ramblings.
'Wang Tiangao, that's my father's name!'
The First Prince's mind suddenly tightened, as if they had released some terrible monster. He looked at the Seventh Prince with a solemn expression, thinking that it shouldn't be a monster that had been released!
The Seventh Prince suddenly stepped forward, lifted the First Prince with one hand, and carefully sensed him. Instantly, all the secrets surrounding the First Prince vanished!
The Seventh Prince roared anxiously, "No, no, you should be the First Prince! How could this be? How could you be gone? How could I not sense you? Wang Tiangao, you come out here!"
At this moment, the Seventh Prince roared like a wild beast with its fur standing on end!
Feel the returning power within your body; it's not yet complete!
The eldest prince's eyes were as dark as ink. He seemed to realize something and said softly, "Are you referring to the black aura?"
The seventh prince before us is no longer the same as before. It is unknown whether his soul has been destroyed or is temporarily possessed by someone else!
The eldest prince, his eyes probing, seemingly unconcerned about his own life, asked in a low, curious voice, "Who are you? My father, the Emperor, has accumulated immeasurable merit; why would he deceive you!"
The Seventh Prince roared, filled with resentment, "That cunning brat Wang Tiangao, seemingly benevolent, deceived my clan's power, and yet dared to devour, seal, and suppress me!"
He chuckled sinisterly, his face terrifying. "Unfortunately, I underestimated the terrifying life force of my Heavenly Demon race."
The eldest prince's eyes were as deep as an abyss, with a complex emotion surging within them like an undercurrent, quickly passing through resentment and understanding, and finally returning to calm.
The resentment burned like a raging fire, then vanished in an instant, replaced by a knowing understanding that saw through everything.
With a calm and composed demeanor, he parted his thin lips slightly and asked in a deep and certain voice, "The mysterious power you mentioned earlier, could it be the black energy growing within my body?"
This aura seems closely connected to my cultivation; the stronger my cultivation, the more it subtly grows stronger!
The Seventh Prince of the Heavenly Demon looked at the calm First Prince with great curiosity and said in a rough voice, "Hehe, you do have some of your father's composure."
Back then, when I was very weak, I met your father, that seemingly respectable but actually skilled at deception.
Humans are all untrustworthy!
Especially your old man!
