214: The Prince of Zhennan's Mansion colluded with demons and the entire family was exterminated.
At the Zhennan Royal Family ancestral tomb.
Xiaobai was concentrating on breaking the formation, when he suddenly opened his black eyes, his Face beaming with joy.
With a loud 'boom', the bronze door slowly opened.
"Longteng!"
Xiaobai called out.
"Coming, Bai Ge!"
Longteng said excitedly, and the two of them rushed into the bronze door.
What greeted their eyes was:
Piles of glittering gold, like mountains.
Enough to arm hundreds of thousands of troops.
In the corners, there were also various ancient old boxes, covered in dust.
With a clang, they were opened.
"The Origin of the Barbarians", "Historical Records of the Great Yue Kingdom", "Three Major Unsolved Cases that Shocked the West", "Methods for Crafting the Ten Great Treasure Bows", "Secrets You Must Know to Advance to Transcendent", "The Sword Manual of the King of Yue"...
"My master loves these gossip books, and these martial arts manuals too, take them all!"
Xiaobai's eyes lit up instantly, and he stuffed all sorts of boxes into his Treasure Pouch.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
The mountain of gold was all taken away.
When he looked back, he found that Longteng, that simpleton, was now like a famished panda, gnawing madly on a lightning-emitting bamboo stalk next to a coffin.
Xiaobai's vision immediately went black, and he almost fainted.
"Longteng, that's Golden Thunder Bamboo, a priceless Heaven And Earth Treasure! You simpleton, leave some roots!"
In less than a moment, he had eaten most of it.
His aura was almost on the verge of entering the True Demon stage.
With a 'snap'.
The remaining half was also swallowed by Longteng.
Longteng's aura surged, and he had clearly Broken Through to Spirit Rank.
Xiaobai quickly and carefully collected the only remaining roots into a jade box, thinking that perhaps they might see the light of day again in the future.
This Golden Thunder Bamboo was a fourth-grade Heaven And Earth Treasure, rare and hard to come by.
If it fell into the hands of an Artifact Refining Grandmaster, it was very likely that a powerful Magic Treasure could be crafted from it.
Now, it was gone.
This Prince Zhennan ancestral tomb even had such Heaven And Earth Treasure.
He looked towards the center, where nine coffins were placed.
Eight black coffins and one bronze coffin.
"Longteng, open the coffins!"
"Alright!"
Longteng's eyes flashed with lightning, and with a Dragon's Tail Whip, all nine coffins were opened.
Eight radiant treasures shot out from within the coffins.
"Holy crap, eight Spiritual Artifacts!"
"Longteng, we're rich!"
Xiaobai was overjoyed, this was too fierce.
"Longteng, all of these must be handed over to our master!"
"Next time we go treasure hunting, I'll find you a good one!"
Longteng stared with his big, wheel-like eyes, thinking, "Do you think I believe you?"
Every time Bai Ge said that, it meant he was about to lie. He probably intended to embezzle at least half of the Spiritual Artifacts here.
"Alright, alright... I'll give you this Thunder Spirit Spear!"
Xiaobai was helpless; he had been tricked too many times and was no longer trusted.
He hinted to him not to tell their master.
"This crappy place, only two Spiritual Artifacts were confiscated; what a waste of such a good spot!"
The largest bronze coffin actually had nothing, not even bones, and he had thought it would yield something good.
Of the nine coffins, only seven had bones.
The entire Zhennan Royal Family ancestral tomb was completely emptied, like geese plucking feathers.
"Longteng, close the coffins, give them some Face, otherwise the bones will catch a cold later!"
Xiaobai said with a playful smile.
Bang, hiss...
Clatter!
All nine coffins were closed, perfectly sealed.
"Not bad, not bad!"
After saying that.
Xiaobai took out nine large gold ingots from his Treasure Pouch.
And placed them in front of the coffins.
"Bai Ge, what are you doing?"
You've already dug up their ancestral tomb, and you're still putting a few gold ingots there.
"What do you know? We never steal from ancestral tombs, understand? We buy things from their ancestral tombs, and both parties are willing!"
Xiaobai said earnestly. (Successive Prince Zhennans: I'm going to work early in the morning... (#` dish´) < Rage rage rage rage rage rage!!!)
Longteng's eyes widened.
These large ingots, it seems, were also from their ancestral tomb, right? Using their own gold ingots to buy their own things.
Purely: empty-handed white wolf.
He could only exclaim, truly an expert:
"Bai Ge, truly the purest stream in the world of thievery!"
...
Zhennan Royal Family, Royal Hall.
The empty grand hall.
"Your Highness, you..."
Fei Ruji looked at Prince Zhennan, her eyes wide, and a bad premonition immediately arose in her heart.
No no no...
She stretched out her jade hand, checked his breath, and her body instantly trembled.
"No breath?"
So this old man was so fierce today because it was a final burst of energy before death.
However.
This time, she would definitely get pregnant.
Just at this moment.
With a loud bang, the main door of the hall was broken open.
Da Gongzi of the Royal Family, Yang Xuance, led a group of Royal Family guards and rushed in.
"Ah... Father!"
Yang Xuance was in tears, looking at Fei Ruji with an ill expression.
"Fei Ruji, you killed my father! I'll kill you, you demoness!"
Yang Xuance roared with hot tears in his eyes.
In reality, he was secretly pleased. It was he who had given Prince Zhennan a powerful Huali Pill, but he had tampered with the pill, making it exceptionally potent.
However, for someone on the verge of death, it would directly lead to their demise.
To prevent the Legacy of the Zhennan Royal Family from falling into the hands of outsiders.
As a son, he could only resort to such a measure.
Father, do not blame your son.
Anyway, you were already dying; I merely accelerated the process a little.
"Attack him, hack him to death!"
Yang Xuance gave the order coldly, and the guards behind him swarmed forward.
"How dare you, what are you doing? I am Prince Zhennan's concubine!"
Fei Ruji panicked.
"Xuance, I am your aunt, how can you be so cruel!"
Yang Xuance said with disdain: "I don't have an aunt like you. My father loved you so much, you should be buried with him, not continue to live in this world!"
"Let go... of me."
Fei Ruji cried out in despair.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Several 'puchi' sounds.
A flurry of hacking knives, and Fei Ruji was cut into rotten flesh, her body dismembered.
Soon.
Subordinates brought in a pre-prepared coffin and placed Prince Zhennan's (fake) body inside.
They didn't even change him into new clothes.
Only a sound.
Bang, hiss.
It closed directly.
"Greetings, Prince Zhennan!"
A group of guards immediately began to pledge their loyalty. Prince Zhennan had died. As the Da Gongzi, Yang Xuance, should rightfully become the first successor.
His subordinates thoughtfully prepared a newly custom-made Prince Zhennan's python robe for him to wear.
"Everyone, please rise!"
"Take my aunt out and bury her with my father!"
"Tomorrow, issue a proclamation and hold a funeral ceremony!"
"And report to Chu Emperor that the Prince Zhennan has changed hands!"
Yang Xuance felt light-headed, the throne of Prince Zhennan had finally fallen to him, and he began issuing orders one by one.
Underground, Prince Zhennan (the real one) suddenly opened his eyes, his expression instantly turning as dark as storm clouds, and his figure disappeared like lightning.
The next moment, he appeared in the Royal Hall.
"How dare you, who are you, to trespass into the Royal Hall!" The guards' eyes were as cold as ice, surrounding him tightly.
Yang Xuance, sitting on the throne, rubbed his eyes and reconfirmed several times.
He was so scared he almost collapsed to the ground; the person in front of him was Prince Zhennan in his youth, how could this be! Prince Zhennan was clearly on his last legs.
He tremblingly asked tentatively:
"Father?"
"Aren't you..."
Father?
The guards were completely confused. Was this person Yang Xuance's father? Then how many fathers did he have? And who was the one who had just died?
"Rebellious son, you killed both of them!" Prince Zhennan merely glanced around and instantly saw through everything.
His eyes were as cold as ice, as if they could freeze a person's Soul.
Yang Xuance was dumbfounded, still in a state of confusion.
"Since that's the case, then you shall die!"
Prince Zhennan's Killing Intent surged like a raging tide, no longer able to be concealed.
It turned out that the fake Prince Zhennan was his twin brother. Although he died prematurely at birth, he had not actually died, but was arranged elsewhere by the previous Prince Zhennan.
He had always lived in the shadows as Prince Zhennan's shadow, silently, intending to give him some compensation in his later years.
But he never expected that this rebellious son would cruelly murder him.
"No... Father, I didn't kill him, Fei Ruji did! Please investigate thoroughly!" Yang Xuance was scared Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering. Regardless of whether this person in front of him was his real father, he first kowtowed like pounding garlic and admitted it.
As the saying goes, even a tiger doesn't eat its cubs.
"Rebellious son, on the verge of death and still daring to speak nonsense! Do you think I don't know Fei Ruji's temper? Give her a hundred guts, and she wouldn't dare lay a hand on this King!" Prince Zhennan was furious, and a big slap like a fierce storm landed heavily, directly knocking out several of his front teeth like shooting stars.
"Father, spare my life! That fake wasn't killed by me, it was Fei Ruji!" Yang Xuance could only clench his teeth now and refuse to admit it, otherwise, it would definitely be a dead end.
"You..."
Just as Prince Zhennan was about to kill him with a palm strike.
A series of deafening roars suddenly came from the sky.
A colossal warship, like a behemoth reaching the heavens, hung over the Zhennan Royal Family.
Crack!
Layers of golden steps, like a heavenly ladder descending from the sky, spread downwards.
Directly to the ground.
In the sky, a giant hand appeared, covering the sun, and the human emperor banner plunged directly into the ground like Mount Tai crushing an egg, completely sealing off an area of fifty li.
From the Void Realm, Chu Jiang's cold and bone-chilling voice came:
"Demon Suppression Guard, listen to my command: Prince Zhennan, colluding with foreign races, plotting rebellion, attempting to overthrow the state, with irrefutable evidence, his entire family shall be executed, not one left, kill without mercy!"
