As the voice suddenly appeared, Shen Hai had already stepped in front of Qin Changqing. When Qin Changqing looked over Shen Hai's shoulder, he saw that the person speaking was none other than the eldest prince's former lover, Ulysses! And beside him was that fake Ah Hua.
"It's you!" Qin Changqing glared at him with hatred on his face. It was this person who made Lan Sinian leave him!
Ulysses smiled at him and said, "We meet again."
Qin Changqing's eyes were bloodshot and red, and he had no intention of reminiscing with him. He barely suppressed his anger and asked in a deep voice, "What are your conditions?"
"What?" Ulysses seemed not to understand what he meant.
"Isn't it just for this that you have planned so many things? Tell me, what conditions do you want in order to let Si Nian go?" Qin Changqing clenched his hands hanging at his sides, staring at him intently.
Ulysses made no attempt to answer his question. He turned around, looked at the man inside the giant cylinder, and whispered, "It's been years. He's grown quite a bit."
"Don't look at him! What is your purpose? Answer me!!!" Qin Changqing couldn't suppress the urge to vomit when he saw him acting like this. These people were all like this, Lan Lezhang was like this, and this person was like this too. They only gave Si Nian pain and malice. What qualifications did they have to stand in front of him with a nostalgic look on their faces?!
Ulysses was not angry at his uncontrollable anger. He just glanced at Qin Changqing and said, "I didn't expect you to have such a temper. When you were young, you seemed to have a good temper."
"What do you mean?" Qin Changqing frowned, looking puzzled.
Ulysses continued, "You haven't seen me, but I did see you back then. You may not know that it was me who went to your hometown to bring the Fourth Prince back home according to the old majesty's wishes. And in the eight years before that, I was the one who took care of his health."
Qin Changqing was stunned. The doubts that had been in his mind were suddenly resolved at this moment. He asked in disbelief, "Did you tamper with Si Nian's memory?! Why?!" He couldn't help but look at the fake Ah Hua standing beside him, his anger almost bursting out, "You made this thing too?! What else did you do to Si Nian?!"
Why on earth did this person do this?! If he hadn't tampered with Si Nian's memories without permission, how could their family have been separated for eight years?
Yulisesian didn't answer him. He turned around and looked at Lansinian's body again, muttering, "It will be soon. In just a little while, Yueyuan will be back with me."
These words made Qin Changqing understand his plan instantly. The hatred in his heart was like a tsunami. He couldn't help laughing and said with the utmost malice: "You want to recreate a prince? Let me be frank. Even if the prince were to come back to life, he would never be with a devil like you who killed his own brother! He would only find you terrifying and disgusting!"
"Shut up!" Ulysses interrupted him abruptly. He had been very calm before, but Qin Changqing's words at this time clearly hit the most fearful point in his heart. His face was gloomy, and he stared at Qin Changqing viciously, like an evil ghost who finally revealed his true face.
"You understand absolutely nothing. Everyone thinks Yue Yuan is no match for his third brother, but in my eyes, no one can compare to him. He has a kind character and outstanding leadership skills. He is broad-minded and has a deep affection for his brothers. He never guards against them and is unwilling to compete with them for anything. Even when everyone, including the old emperor, tacitly agreed that the fourth brother would surpass him, the first heir, to sit on the throne, he never complained and continued to guard the country diligently. But what was his final fate?" Ulysses's sinister eyes gradually turned blood red with excitement. He uttered the deepest hatred in his heart in a hoarse voice that almost sounded like tears of blood. "He was sent to the battlefield by his own father and became the soul killed by the knife of the brother he protected with all his heart. But who still remembers him, the eldest prince?! Tell me, who still remembers him?!"
"But what does this have to do with Si Nian?! He was also a victim back then!" Qin Changqing was completely unmoved. Even if Ulysses had many reasons for hatred and revenge, what did this have to do with his Si Nian? When that happened, Si Nian was only five or six years old! He had never harmed his own brothers, so why should he have to bear all this?!
Ulysses smiled when he heard this, and he whispered in his hoarse voice: "It has nothing to do with him, but Yueyuan's return always requires some sacrifices. He should just think of it as doing it for his brother. After all, Yueyuan liked him very much in the past." As he spoke, he walked towards the instrument under the huge cylinder, and his purpose was obvious.
Qin Changqing found this man completely unreasonable! Seeing him reaching out to press the buttons on the instruments, he suddenly became anxious and quickly ran towards him around the deep sea. However, just as he was halfway there, a person blocked his way.
He looked up and found that the person blocking his way was the fake Ahua.
The fake Ahua's face looks almost exactly the same as it did back then, but he is a bit taller than him, so one needs to lower their head to look at him. The only difference is that he has become more mature as he gets older.
"Get out of the way!" Qin Changqing glared at the impostor with hatred. If Si Nian hadn't escaped, the rage in his heart would have been enough to burn everything related to Ulysses! This included this impostor, of course!
The fake Ahua was stunned for a moment, but a trace of sadness appeared on his face. But before Qin Changqing noticed, Shenhai had already stepped forward and started fighting with him.
Qin Changqing didn't care about this. Seeing that Ulysses had already pressed several buttons, he quickly strode forward and punched him in the face.
Ulysses was just an ordinary person, just like him. But even worse than him, this man spent years in the lab, unlike Qin Changqing, who had learned martial arts from Luo Yuhuan and Lan Sinian. He barely dodged Qin Changqing's first punch, but then failed to dodge the next kick to his abdomen. Qin Changqing's kick sent him back several steps before he could regain his balance.
However, Qin Changqing forced him back, but he could do nothing about the instrument in front of him. He could only use his body to block it and prevent him from getting any closer.
At the same time, Shen Hai's goal was to protect Qin Changqing. He did not dare to get entangled with the fake Ahua. After forcing the man back, he immediately ran back to Qin Changqing.
"Queen, are you alright?" He asked softly, tilting his head. He now held Qin Changqing behind him, both of them facing the castle gate, Ulysses, and the fake Ahua, with their backs to the huge columns behind them.
"I'm fine." Qin Changqing took advantage of his cover to secretly rub his belly. The little guy seemed to be particularly sensible today and did not take this opportunity to make trouble for him. He was a good child.
Ulysses rubbed his stomach, frowned at the two of them, and said with great dissatisfaction: "Why are you so stubborn?!"
"Who is so stubborn and stubborn?!" Qin Changqing was almost amused by him. He stared straight into Ulysses' eyes and said in an almost vicious tone, "The eldest prince died a long time ago! He turned into a pile of yellow earth thirty years ago. Even if you were the king of heaven, you couldn't bring him back to life!"
"Shut up!" Ulysses was once again touched in the sore spot by him, and he became hysterical. He said with an obsessive look, "As long as I use the fourth brother's genes to create a new body for Yue Yuan, a perfect body, he will definitely come back to me. I have already found his spiritual body! He will definitely come back!"
Hearing him mention the word "spiritual body", Qin Changqing suddenly thought of what he had seen in Castle Kah. If he really found the eldest prince's spiritual body and gave him a body...
This terrifying possibility made Qin Changqing extremely anxious. If Ulysses could really do that, then he would definitely not care about Si Nian's life or death, and Si Nian...
Ulysses suddenly laughed out loud. He pressed down a certain ornament on his clothes, staring straight at Qin Changqing and whispering his name. "Qin Changqing, actually, the son with you and the fourth child has the best genes. After all, he is the next generation through natural evolution. The drawbacks of various experiments have been greatly improved, and his genes are naturally better. But forget it, having the fourth child is not bad either... How about we make a bet? If the fourth child is willing to go with you, I will let you take him away. If he voluntarily stays and doesn't want to go with you, you can leave and don't bother him anymore, okay?"
Qin Changqing's throat tightened. He thought Ulysses had gone mad, but Ulysses looked so certain he would win. And the way he looked, he must have been certain of victory... Qin Changqing thought of what Si Nian had done before leaving the palace, and how Si Nian had left the palace quietly without saying anything to him. There must be something hidden in Si Nian's body that they didn't know about yet...
He couldn't help but glance at Ulysses, whose expression looked very abnormal. What had this man done to Si Nian over the years? How did he control Si Nian's behavior? How could he break this control?
"Well? Have you made up your mind?" Ulysses looked at him with a smile, like a lunatic filled with a sense of disharmony. He looked at Qin Changqing with his bright eyes and said gently, "Bet me, you have a 50% chance of taking him away without any effort. Isn't that good?"
Qin Changqing didn't agree to his plan. He suddenly asked, "The princes of the three Blood Party clans, and Lan Lezhang, are here with you, right? What did you do to them?"
Ulysses was slightly taken aback by his change of subject, but he quickly reacted, chuckling and replying, "The fourth brother threw him into the scrap heap to avenge his eldest brother. They will be eaten away bit by bit, and then slowly die. I want them to suffer a hundred times, ten thousand times more than Yue Yuan's death!"
After he finished shouting this, he suddenly looked at Qin Changqing and shouted at him: "I know! You don't want to choose! Then let Lao Si tell you himself whether he is willing to go with you!"
As he pressed the ornament again, Qin Changqing heard the sound of something opening behind him. Anxiously turning his head, he saw the man who had been trapped in the large cylinder had opened his eyes and slowly walked out.
"Si Nian." Qin Changqing couldn't help but call out softly, and his feet seemed to have their own consciousness as he walked towards him.
However, the man's sapphire blue eyes no longer looked at him affectionately as they always did in the past. His eyes looked straight ahead, got off the ground, and then walked past him towards Ulysses.
Qin Changqing subconsciously took a step behind him, then looked at Ulysses and chuckled at him, then slowly said to Lan Sinian who was walking towards him: "They always get in the way, kill them."
Lan Sinian didn't answer him, but turned around and looked at him with cold eyes.
Qin Changqing felt his heart sink and looked at him sadly.
