After that, the king fell back on the floor!
”Yong-Er...”
Tears fell down!
The king always knew that his second son was not a capable man. He knew that this son would never get any great achievement, however, even though he knew that he must have had messed up with someone he should never have… that he was unforgivable… but…
[Even though he is so wrong… he is after all my son!]
[He is my son!]
The king lied on the floor with tears on his cheeks… [Who was it?]
[Who attacked the palace?]
[Why so brutal! Why so merciless!]
…
The king raged and the thunder sounded!
The entire kingdom was immediately in chaos.
All houses were checked. Soldiers walked on the streets like tigers and wolves. They ran amuck in the city. Generals, leaders, captains… They were all showing dark faces.
They looked at everybody like they were looking at a murderer. Everyone was a suspect!
Suddenly, everybody started to worry about safety in this big city!
Many people who had attended the fight of the two great sects hid in the city. They had gotten away from the investigation earlier, yet now they were found out. It surely proceeded much strictly this time!
…
”Second Prince.” Ye Xiao sat on the chair. He looked at the prince with cold eyes as he casually spoke, ”Now, the city is in chaos because of the bloodshed in your palace. The king loves you so much. Who says royal people have no family factions! That is so wrong.”
Second Prince looked at Ye Xiao with a pair of swollen and terrified eyes.
[You devil!]
The man in front of him was exactly a devil!
Over a dozen years earlier, he didn’t realize, or he wouldn’t even think it was possible that this young stupid son of General Ye was actually such a horrible figure.
However, now he knew it, but it was too late. He was in the devil’s hand now!
[Do I have a chance to survive this?]
What happened earlier the night was a nightmare to him!
The guards he trusted were cut on the throat and their heads just flew up around him. The heads then fell down around his feet. That was the beginning of the nightmare. It lasted till the current moment, yet was far from the end. There might never be an end to this nightmare. The end of this nightmare might just be his death!
”Ye Xiao, do not be reckless. You should better just let me go now. If your filthy plan is exposed, you entire clan will be wiped out. You will all die without an intact body! What my father is doing today shows lots of things. You are just a normal person, yet you dare to offend the royal house’s honor! That is treason! Ye Xiao, you deserve to die!” Second Prince gasped and shouted in a hoarse voice.
He knew what he said wouldn’t threaten Ye Xiao at all, but he just couldn’t let go of any possibility to live!
