C134 (2/2)

”All of you can leave now.” He waved his hand and the surrounding servants all left, closing the door behind them.

While Yang Huang was staring at Yang Xu, there was an indescribable emotion between his brows. Finally, it turned into a sentence as cold as ice, ”Xu, you are very good, very good.”

”I am indebted to Imperial Father. I have indeed been living a good life of cultivation.” Ye Ling continued to speak in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.

At this moment, he felt a sense of humiliation and resentment, all because of Yang Xu's true emotions.

All this while, Yang Xu had been allocated the least amount of resources among the princes. His three brothers were all holding heavy fists; one was the Prince Shang Shu, the other was a general, and only he was not worthy of the title of Crown Prince.

Otherwise, Yang Xu wouldn't have reached the middle stage of the Xuan Wu Realm at the age of twenty-five.

Thus, he was extremely resentful! Yang Huang had treated him as an abandoned son from the start, but he was unwilling to accept this outcome! He wanted to be the one who manipulated the chessboard!

The royal disciples were like raising Gu, the strongest being that could finally fight for the throne.

This resentment was very direct, but Yang Huang acted as if he did not hear it, he said lightly, ”Xu, I know that you have spent the last few years trying to raise your family and to fight for the throne. This situation was created by us all along, but no matter how you fight for the throne, you should not brutally kill your brother.”

When Yang Huang said those words, he looked indifferent as if he was talking about something insignificant.

If the real Yang Xu was here, he would definitely feel a sense of cowardice before leaking out. However, Ye Ling himself was still a supreme emperor, and in his eyes, these monarchs were nothing more than child's play.

He sneered in his heart, and then continued to speak with a tone that was neither haughty nor humble: ”Royal father, what are you saying, this son does not understand, my third brother's death is also a great sorrow, it is a pity, my third brother is also a half-step into the Heaven realm, with my current strength, it is impossible for me to kill them.”

In short, Ye Ling was adamant to not admit it.

”Oh? You grieve? I think it's too late for you to be happy. ” Yang Huang said coldly, ”Xu, I don't believe that your death has anything to do with you. Indeed, you can't kill them with your strength on the surface, but since I'm here today, I will investigate everything thoroughly.”

”The clear-minded know themselves and the muddled know themselves. Since royal father wants to investigate, then come and investigate.” Ye Ling said.

Yang Huang stared at his' son 'with hatred instead of the love of a father in his eyes.

Within the Imperial Family, there was no such thing as kinship. Even common women had a saying: ”We must enter a brothel and not enter the Imperial Palace.”

Ye Ling also turned his gaze in the direction of the voice and stared at it with a pair of bright eyes.

After a while, Yang Huang's expression eased up and he sighed.

”Xu'er, there's only us two here today. ”Now that your two elder brothers are dead and you are the sole heir to the kingdom, I will put the truth here. Whether you kill Qian Gang or not, I will make sure you inherit the throne a hundred years from now.”

”Now tell me, what happened? I can let bygones be bygones, how about it? ”

Ye Ling's heart was moved. At this moment, the Emperor did not seem like a ruler at all. Instead, he looked like a late stage old man who had lost his son. He subconsciously wanted to blurt out the truth.

However, at this moment, Ye Ling's mind became alert and he began to repent! How could an Emperor reveal the feelings of a mortal? How could such a formidable man reveal his heart to his son!

So it was just another trap! So dangerous!

Ye Ling, who was observing carefully at this moment, noticed a trace of craftiness hidden deep within Yang Huang's eyes. It was as if a hunter was waiting for his prey to take the bait.

”This son doesn't understand what royal father is saying.” Ye Ling sneered again and again. On the surface, he wore a confused expression. ”This son can only tell Father one thing. The death of my two brothers definitely has nothing to do with me.”

After he finished speaking, Ye Ling added on in his heart: This is weird.

You want to compete with me in slyness? You are so far off!

”Xu, you've disappointed me so much.” Yang Huang suddenly sighed and shook his head. After that, he turned his gaze towards Ye Ling.

His eyes were suddenly shrouded by a layer of seven-colored radiance!

”This is bad!” Ye Ling's mind trembled violently. He could feel his consciousness being swept and all his thoughts being touched. That gaze once again extended out as if it was about to touch the most important thing to Yang Xu's soul at any time.

Those are the most direct things.

As the saying goes, eyes are the window to the soul. Yang Huang did not know what demonic technique it was, to be able to see the thoughts of others through the eyes.

”We can't continue like this anymore!” Sensing that his plan was to retreat step by step, with a thought from Ye Ling, scarlet flames appeared out of nowhere, and a golden light flashed across his eyes.

He secretly let out a sigh of relief. The feeling of being spied on had been completely swept away.

”You're not Xu'er! Just who are you! ” Yang Huang suddenly screamed!
