Xia Xing had plotted for Chu Rong to take over the ancestral hall, but the person in question, Chu Rong, didn't know anything. He didn't even know anything about what was happening outside the ancestral hall.

What about Lan Yiyi?

From her initial opposition, to confusion, and then to her boiling blood, she couldn't wait to follow Xia Xinghe and rush into the capital city, starting a fierce battle to seize the direct line of descent!

As for Chu Qingcheng, from start to finish, she didn't make a clear statement about whether or not she would support Xia Xinghe in helping Chu Rong ascend the throne. Because Chu Qingcheng knew that if she succeeded, it would still be good.

At the very least, in Chu Qingcheng's subconscious, she was opposed to Chu Rong participating in the battle to ascend the throne.

Xia Xinghe naturally knew what Chu Qingcheng was thinking.

At that moment, Xia Xinghe's lips curled up as he mysteriously spoke to Chu Qingcheng, ”Miss Chu, I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, whatever you're thinking will never happen.”

After speaking, Xia Xinghe sat cross-legged on the ground, continuing to absorb the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth left behind in the city.

Not long after, the wails and screams outside the ancestral hall gradually weakened until they completely disappeared without a trace …

”Is it over?” Lan Yiyi curiously moved closer to Chu Qingcheng's side as she asked in a soft voice.

”Nope.” Chu Qingcheng firmly shook her head and explained to Lan Yiyi, ”It should be that Zuo Xiao's spiritual energy consumption was too great, and he just temporarily stopped. Once Zuo Xiao recovered some spiritual energy, the massacre will continue!”

”Looks like we can only wait, wait for Chu Rong to awaken …” Lan Yiyi said.
