Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 18
Chapter 18: Was I Really Wrong?
“Imperial Edict! Are you crazy? ” Liang Chen said, his face unsightly.
Several Empires had an agreement: once one party used the Imperial Edict, the other Empires must support it; otherwise, it would be considered a breach of the Alliance Agreement.
Afterward, they would be removed from the Empire Alliance.
Not only cultivation resources, but even civilian trade between countries would be cut off.
As a result, they had to consider: although Ye Yu possessed the method to suppress the Nine Nether Bl00d Spring, was it worth betraying the Alliance Agreement?
More importantly, if everyone chose to betray the Alliance Agreement, that would be fine, but the problem was, what if they did it, and others chose to give up?
After all, the resources of a country would make anyone envious.
“Today, I want to see if the Great Yan Alliance Agreement is more important to you, or this good-for-nothing! ” Ye Qingwan said, her face contorted.
Ye Yu is a good-for-nothing, a dog by their side!
Now, so many forces are vying to win him over, even willing to fall out with the Great Yan Dynasty. Why?! This huge disparity, she could not accept, and would not accept!
Everyone from the major Empires fell silent. After a long time, Liang Chen was the first to exhale, nodded to his Protector, and slowly sat back in his place.
Suppressing the Nine Nether Bl00d Spring was certainly important, but the cost and danger were truly too great!
No one expected that Ye Qingwan would be so insane, even willing to use the Imperial Edict to kill Ye Yu.
With Liang Chen taking the lead, the other major Empires also sat down one after another; their thoughts were consistent with Liang Chen’s.
Ye Yu’s value was great, but not to this extent.
Only Qin Ruoxian remained standing beside Ye Yu, her eyes disdainfully scanning the crowd.
Si Tu Guang also looked at the descending Protectors and sneered repeatedly.
A Seventh-Rank Alchemist, whose Golden Core Stage combat strength was comparable to that of a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, was noticed by three venerated masters of the Way of Literature, and was also a Thousand Seals Formation Grandmaster. Any one of these identities was enough to reach the peak of the Qingzhou cultivation World.
But these people only saw the value of Ye Yu’s suppression of the Nine Nether Bl00d Spring.
“Great Qin, you still want to interfere?!” Ye Qingwan’s icy gaze fell on Qin Ruoxian.
The people from the other Empires also cast ambiguous glances at this moment.
Once Qin Ruoxian persisted, it would mean betraying the Alliance Agreement. They could very well attack together and divide up the huge cake of the Great Qin Dynasty.
Qin Ruoxian did not answer; the surging spiritual energy throughout her body was her answer.
Seeing this, a trace of emotion flashed in Ye Yu’s eyes. He reached out to stop her, saying, “I’ll do it myself. You and Master Si Tu should watch from the side. ”
“But…” Qin Ruoxian wanted to say something else, but she saw the powerful confidence emanating from Ye Yu, as if everything was under his control.
At the same time, Si Tu Guang came before Qin Ruoxian, gesturing for her to obey.
He wasn’t worried at all that Ye Yu would have an accident. He had witnessed Ye Yu’s terror firsthand. Although he might not be able to defeat the five Nascent Soul Imperial Consecrates, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to retreat safely.
Seeing Ye Yu’s persistence, Qin Ruoxian said nothing more. She slowly walked to the side, picked up Liu Tiannan, who was slumped in his seat, threw him aside, and sat down calmly.
“Good-for-nothing, let’s see who else can help you! ” Ye Qingwan sneered, then looked at the five Imperial Consecrates in mid-air.
Nangong Wushe and the four others looked at each other, then sighed softly. As Great Yan Imperial Consecrates, they naturally had to work for Great Yan; otherwise, who in Qingzhou would still be willing to support them?
Although they had all had good personal relationships with Ye Yu in the past, and Nangong Wushe had even been guided by him, in the face of the cultivation resources provided, all of this seemed insignificant.
Then, the five of them attacked together, five beams of spiritual energy transforming into a large net that enveloped Ye Yu.
The Protectors of the major Empires watched the approaching net and sighed softly. Five Nascent Soul Stage cultivators working together—even fellow Nascent Soul Stage cultivators would find it difficult to escape, let alone Ye Yu.
As the net drew closer, Ye Yu’s eyes suddenly opened, and a rich bloody light erupted from his Dantian, enveloping his entire body.
A sharp Sword Intent shot up into the sky!
Everyone felt as if their bodies were being torn apart, and they all recoiled violently.
The next moment, Ye Yu brought his two fingers together, and a long sword condensed from bloody light appeared in his hand. Then Ye Yu slowly raised his head, and an almost imperceptible murmur came from his mouth.
“Sky Cleaving Sword Technique! ”
The bloody light around Ye Yu intensified, and then the vast spiritual energy transformed into a sword more than ten meters long, slashing down at the spiritual energy net!
For a time, Sword Qi filled the air, countless Sword Lights filled most of Liu Manor, and most of the buildings in Liu Manor collapsed at this moment.
In the Liu Manor backyard, Yan Ruyue soared into the air, looking in shock at the center of the raging spiritual energy.
“Unexpectedly, Great Yan actually has someone whose skill in the Sword Dao is comparable to Master’s?!”
The spiritual energy net collided with the Sword Light, and in an instant, it was cut to pieces. Nangong Wushe and the four others’ faces changed drastically, their faces flushed as they spat out a mouthful of bl00d and flew backward.
The other Protectors also looked ashen.
That sword strike—none of them could have withstood it; they would only have died!
Good-for-nothing Crown Prince?! What a joke?!
This single sword strike alone—not to mention the Qingzhou Geniuses, even many older Experts might not be able to achieve it.
Ye Yu’s condition wasn’t very good either within the bloody light.
The Sky Cleaving Sword Technique, like the Illusory Dragon Wind Thunder Body, was a Divine Ability bestowed upon him by the venerated masters of the Way of Literature.
The power of this sword strike was comparable to that of an ordinary Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator. If Ye Yu had a suitable Magical Sword, the power could be doubled.
But similarly, the consumption was enormous; this one sword strike had almost consumed all the spiritual energy in Ye Yu’s body.
The bloody light dissipated, the dust settled, and everyone’s gaze fell on the thin figure in the ruins.
There was incomprehension, shock, but more than that, fear.
Such a person—if he had stayed in the Great Yan Dynasty, the consequences for them would undoubtedly be terrifying. Fortunately, the people of the Great Yan Imperial Family are stupid!
Even Ye Qingwan had a look of disbelief. At this moment, she seemed to see the old Ye Yu return.
That younger brother who had suppressed her since childhood, who had received endless pampering, endless praise, and everything that she, his elder sister, could not obtain.
In the ruins, Ye Yu slowly turned his head, his icy gaze falling on Ye Qingwan.
Feeling Ye Yu’s gaze, Ye Qingwan froze, but the image of Ye Yu who had received countless favors unconsciously appeared in her mind—even with power in hand and the hearts of the people, he had always sweetly called her “sister” and followed behind her.
Now, everything has changed!
She could feel that in Ye Yu’s eyes looking at her, there was no longer warmth, only Killing Intent!
Could it be that she was truly wrong?
