134: His Highness is not dead!

... ...

... ...

Returning from Fengtian Hall to his own Prince's Mansion.

The Second Prince, dressed in scholar's clothes and carrying a book basket, had already left the Capital.

Third Prince Sheng Tianlong sighed and shook his head: "If only all the men in the World were this self-aware, how good that would be."

Thinking that he would ascend the throne tomorrow, and how the palace maids, Eunuchs, and even the concubines in the Imperial Palace were preparing for him, Third Prince Sheng Tianlong couldn't help but hum a little tune lightly.

"Prince, those two young ladies haven't eaten yet."

An attendant saw the returning Third Prince Sheng Tianlong and immediately reported.

"Go take a look."

... ...

The glass bead curtain hung down, and on the sandalwood bed radiating a faint fragrance sat two beautiful women with identical appearances.

"Sister, we must escape!"

"As long as we escape, we'll have a chance to avenge him!"

White Sha, who used to like acting coquettishly in front of Hei Sha, was now playing the role of comforter.

From Hei Sha, White Sha had already learned the course of events and felt heartbroken over Sheng Changge's death.

And clearly, Sister Hei Sha had not yet emerged from the heavy blow of that A Man's death.

"Sister?"

White Sha's voice then emerged.

Hei Sha, who had been in a daze, looked up at this moment towards the other side of the bead curtain.

It was Third Prince Sheng Tianlong.

"What? I heard you're on a hunger strike?"

"Now that I'm about to become Emperor, in the entire World, which A Man can compare to the ruler of a nation? You are quite insensible."

A condescending posture, as if the woman before him must kneel at his feet and submit to him was the only correct thing.

"You will definitely die!"

Hei Sha's voice was extremely hoarse, and no one could feel the grief in her heart.

"Tsk tsk tsk, these are not words a member of my harem should say to me." Third Prince Sheng Tianlong walked forward.

However, it was also at this moment that Hei Sha suddenly picked up the chopsticks from the meal next to her, pointed them at her pretty face: "If you dare come closer, I will definitely scratch my face!"

"Interesting..." Third Prince Sheng Tianlong's gaze held a hint of coldness: "I'll give you two more days then."

After speaking, the A Man turned and left.

"Sister." White Sha threw herself into Hei Sha's embrace.

Clearly, Hei Sha's action just now had scared her.

Holding White Sha back, Sister Hei Sha's tears fell silently, her heart filled only with sorrow.

She didn't know what to do next, didn't know who could save them.

... ...

After being rebuffed by Hei Sha.

Third Prince Sheng Tianlong turned and came to his private secret room.

The chessboard in the secret room was still moving by itself.

And when Third Prince Sheng Tianlong arrived here, his expression was extremely satisfied.

On the entire chessboard.

The original seven factions of pieces, at this moment, only had one large faction remaining, a large area of pieces belonging exclusively to him, Third Prince Sheng Tianlong!

The day the First Prince's pieces were suddenly wiped out and Sheng Changge's pieces increased, he was still quite surprised by this Fifth Prince.

However, it was Sheng Changge who removed the trouble for him and did the groundwork for him.

Such a situation could be said to be Heaven-ordained for his great momentum!

But...

Just as Third Prince Sheng Tianlong was feeling smug about this, an unexpected change occurred on the hazy chessboard before him!

He saw that on the chessboard, which originally only had Third Prince Sheng Tianlong's large area of pieces, a piece appeared out of thin air, a white piece!

That white piece that appeared directly, like a Sea God needle, settled right in the midst of his black army, absolutely eye-catching!

"What is this?!" This scene exceeded Third Prince Sheng Tianlong's expectations.

When he looked closely at that white piece.

There were two words on the piece — Changge!

... ...

... ...

The night quickly passed.

The next day.

A thousand miles away.

Qiushan City.

The heavy rain was still pouring down on the earth with a rushing sound. This kind of heavy rain was rare, not to mention at the transition between autumn and winter, even in midsummer.

In the courtyard.

A body that should have been cold exhaled warm air from its nostrils.

His fingers moved slightly, and Sheng Changge slowly opened his eyes.

Sitting quietly leaning against a pillar, after a long time, Sheng Changge looked at his recovered chest.

"System?"

"Yes, Host."

"You saved me again, didn't you?"

"The Host's passive skill took effect,"

"Is that so?" Sheng Changge slowly got up, understanding that the principle was the same.

He opened the System panel.

From it, Sheng Changge clearly understood what he had gained after his resurrection!

The Shadow Legion, twenty existences like Man Niu, and the White Horse Righteous Cavalry and that Zhao Zilong character template whose overall strength had more than doubled!

... ...

... ...

Qiushan City City Lord's Mansion.

Li Chen and Qiushan City Lord, Qiu Qing knelt on the ground.

Before them was a Purple-Robed Eunuch reading out an imperial decree.

"Li Chen, Prefect of Beixue Prefecture, Qiushan City Lord, Qiu Qing, City Lord of Qiushan City, you two have committed the crime of deceiving the Emperor! The poisoned wine bestowed by the Emperor should be drunk."

Two cups of poisoned wine were brought before the two of them without any concealment.

This caused a flash of sorrow to appear in both their eyes.

The new Emperor had already ascended the throne and become Emperor. If they disobeyed this imperial decree, their families would be implicated!

"So be it." Li Chen sadly accepted the poisoned wine: "This official has been incorruptible his entire life, I didn't expect to end up with the crime of deceiving the Emperor."

Qiushan City Lord, Qiu Qing next to him clenched his fists, wanting to say something but not knowing what to say.

Fifth Prince had also died. After following Sheng Changge, he should have expected this day!

What a pity, they still lost.

Taking the wine cup, Qiushan City Lord, Qiu Qing thought for a moment, and there was nothing to regret.

After all, his enemy, the Seventh Prince, had died before him.

The Purple-Robed Eunuch in charge of supervision twirled his whisk, his face indifferent.

And just as the two were about to drink the poisoned wine, a person's voice appeared outside the door!

"Wait."

Amidst the calm voice, an A Man slowly walked in from outside the City Lord's Mansion!

Even the guards standing watch outside the door didn't react for a moment to this suddenly appearing A Man.

Everyone in the main hall widened their eyes even more.

"Prince!" Qiushan City Lord, Qiu Qing immediately roared loudly.

Li Chen also muttered in disbelief: "Fifth Prince?!"

"Who issued the imperial decree?" Sheng Changge looked at the Purple-Robed Eunuch before him, no longer concealing his entire aura in the slightest at this moment!

Under that palpable pressure, the Purple-Robed Eunuch's forehead dripped with sweat: "It is the new Emperor, the imperial decree written by His Majesty Tianlong."

"The new Emperor..."

"During the time the Host was asleep, Third Prince Sheng Tianlong has already ascended the throne and become Emperor."

Ye Tian reminded him from the side.

Hearing this, Third Prince Sheng Tianlong's fist tightened slightly as he looked at the Purple-Robed Eunuch: "Get lost!"

"Prince, although you are a Prince, but... this is an imperial decree."

The Purple-Robed Eunuch endured the pressure and still spoke: "Facing an imperial decree is like facing the Emperor."

"That guy is not even as good as the First Prince, he is not worthy of writing an imperial decree!" Sheng Changge had no reservations whatsoever.

This sentence, however, made the Purple-Robed Eunuch's face turn ugly.

Thinking about it now, behind him stood the Emperor, while the one before him was merely a Prince: "Fifth Prince, offending the Emperor is punishable by death by decapitation!"

His tone once again regained its arrogance.

However, in just the next breath, the Eunuch suddenly discovered in horror that his shadow under his feet, like a person, slowly crawled up from the ground and stood before him!

"Crack~" Without surprise, the Purple-Robed Eunuch's neck was instantly twisted off!

Until his death, the Purple-Robed Eunuch couldn't understand how Sheng Changge... how he dared!

This situation simultaneously occurred to the other guards who had followed the Purple-Robed Eunuch here.

In two breaths, all the uninvited guests who had come to the City Lord's Mansion fell into eternal death!

Replacing these fallen people were dark humanoid shadows — the Black Shadow Legion!
