Chapter 239 - Zither Moon Cutter
If you are aware of this, I will be the Imperial Advisor and wait for you to become king!
If you don't accept the imperial edict, then we will walk our own paths as master and disciple from now on!
These words were like the morning bell and evening drum, echoing in everyone's ears.
It did not disappear for a long time.
Everyone felt that Mu Qinyue's words were too overbearing, she actually pressured the current Crown Prince in front of everyone, forcing him to disobey orders and become a pilgrimage. Isn't this disrespectful?
But Mu Qinyue's attitude was extremely resolute, and not to be denied. She seemed to be one with what she had said, one with the scene.
At this moment, Tang Shengjun also deeply furrowed his brows, his face was as cold as frost, and he entered into a state of hesitation.
Others might not understand what Mu Qinyue meant, but Tang Shengjun did.
Deep understanding!
Mu Qinyue had the desire to innovate in the imperial court and help the emperor. And all of this needed to be erased from the current situation, which also meant that they had to overturn the various superclass national policies set by the Emperor Totem.
This was a confrontation between the two of them, a pilgrimage!
Even though Tang Shengjun was the noble prince, he did not have such determination!
He had already expected this day to come. He just did not expect it to come so quickly!
After a long period of silence, Tang Shengjun looked at Xiao Yu, and then looked at Xiao Ziyu's legs. Finally, Tang Shengjun said: ”Young Master, the continuous growth force was taught to me by royal father. It was an iron law in the history of the Totem Empire that the royal family could not cure the diseases of the outsiders. Once, my sister Princess Heshuo was moved by her compassion and used the continuous growth force to save his beloved man. In the end, royal father abolished his cultivation and sent him into the cold palace. After being confined for many years, he was finally executed. As a descendant of the royal family, I should uphold the laws of the ancestors! I can promise Young Master anything but these things that violate the laws of our ancestors, I cannot do! ”
”I'm sorry, Young Master!” Tang Shengjun cupped his fists and bowed deeply.
His voice was not loud, but it was firm and decisive!
Mu Qinyue nodded his head: ”I already know what you mean, you don't have to be sorry, this is your own decision!”
Finished speaking, Mu Qinyue stood up, her right hand slashed across the air and cut off a strand of hair.
Her black hair floated down like willow leaves.
Mu Qinyue said coldly, ”Ten years of master-disciple relationship, like this strand of hair, is cleaved in half today! From now on, you walk your path, and I'll cross my bridge! ”
Tang Shengjun clenched his teeth, his expression extremely ugly: ”Young Master, do you really have to be so heartless?”
Mu Qinyue said: ”Before I reached adulthood, when you were young, you kept living under the shadow of your father. I, Mu Qinyue, am not willing to spend the rest of my life to accompany a shadow.”
Tang Shengjun clenched his teeth, and said word by word, ”You and I have been master and disciple for ten years, and our feelings are as deep as the sea. Yet today, an outsider has come to test whether or not I have the heart of a Sovereign King. Could it be that in your heart, I am not even comparable to a mere Xiao Yu? ”
Mu Qinyue was very disappointed and felt dejected, ”The reason I made the choice for you today in front of all these people today was because I wanted to see your determination. For the sake of his sister, Xiao Yu dared to risk his life to kill the Sacred Totem Academy's External Affairs Elder. For the sake of his path, he was not afraid at all, you are inferior to him. Without a ruler's heart, one would not be able to become a king. You can go! ”
Tang Shengjun bit his lower lip so hard that blood flowed from his lips and dripped onto the ground.
Everyone could feel the overflowing anger that Tang Shengjun had at this moment! The eyes that were fixated on Xiao Yu seemed to be on fire. If Mu Qinyue was not present, Tang Shengjun might very well have destroyed Xiao Yu right now!
Mu Qinyue, in front of so many people, had actually declared that the current crown prince was inferior to a young man who had not even reached the Saint-level?
To Tang Shengjun, this was simply a great humiliation!
”Mu Qinyue!” Tang Shengjun directly called him by his name: ”You, you say I'm not as good as a mountain villager?! I am the current crown prince, the future king! ”
Tang Shengjun's anger, was like three thousand waterfall flowing, majestically exploding.
Mu Qinyue's face was cold as she faced off: ”In the future, you won't be able to become the sovereign king!”
”I, Tang Shengjun, cannot become the Sovereign King? Could it be that he, Xiao Yu can do it? ” Tang Shengjun suddenly roared out, the sound spread out in all directions, shaking the entire hall! The cold killing intent seemed to freeze the air in the hall!
Mu Qinyue said: ”If I were to support him, the Sovereign King would be able to!”
”Mu Qinyue, how dare you, you actually dared to commit an offense like that, and are even presumptuously discussing the imperial government!” Tang Shengjun was immediately enraged, the chair underneath him shattered with a loud bang, turning into fine powder.
The surrounding people were so scared that they all stood up and hid in the corners to watch.
The development of the situation had long since exceeded everyone's imagination. They knew that the situation had reached a point where they were no longer able to participate.
Even Xiao Yu was stunned, how did a good thing happen like this?
However, Xiao Yu felt that if Mu Qinyue spoke out such words, it would ruin the imperial family's reputation. She might even anger the Tang Clan. She couldn't help but break out in cold sweat for Mu Qinyue.
Mu Qinyue suddenly sighed, and said with a face full of disappointment: ”You can't stand even a few words of the truth, you can see how narrow-minded you are, how can you talk about a future ruler? You are bringing shame to your father. Back then your father could grant you the title of crown prince because of one of my advice. Now, I still only need to give you one reminder and your father will depose you as crown prince. Do you believe me? ”
Tang Shengjun seemed to have thought of something, and immediately sweat profusely. However, the anger on his face remained the same. ”Even so, I am still protecting the imperial family's face today. How can you be so presumptuous!”
Mu Qinyue waved her hand: ”En, let's break off all ties, don't provoke the Ink Plum Scepter in my hands again, if not, you won't be able to take it!”
Tang Shengjun had a face full of frost, and was about to say something, but then, Hai Lan suddenly said from the side: ”Your Highness, let's go!”
Tang Shengjun clenched his teeth, and did not say a word.
In the end, Hai Lan simply decided to leave with Tang Shengjun. When they reached the entrance, Hai Lan suddenly raised her head and fiercely stared at Mu Qinyue, ”Mu Qinyue, you are after all, the teacher of the Nine Dynasty, you will regret your decision today. If you lose your status as a Young Emperor Master and the decree of the State Grandmaster, you will be nothing in the Totem Empire! Furthermore, you even abandoned the current dynasty's crown prince and turned to a mountain villager, Xiao Yu. You will regret it! ”
Before Hai Lan could finish her words, she was suddenly slapped hard by Tang Shengjun, causing him to scream miserably.
Tang Shengjun said coldly: ”Shut up. Young Master's right and wrong, how can you talk about it? ”
