Chapter 60: 56. Royal Secret (1)
Translator: 549690339
No matter what, Xia Xiaosu couldnât connect this evil spirit with the Crown Prince. She still remembered the last time she saw the Crown Prince.
Outside Ximen City, the Crown Prince was wearing golden armor and holding the Nation Suppressing Spear. He was tall and sturdy, and all the officials sent him off. His 100,000 troops were as steady as mountains.
How high-spirited was that!
However, when they met again, it had turned into such a miserable appearance.
Moreover, everything below his waist was gone. How did he survive?
The Crown Prince looked at the Ninth Princess and explained, obtained a divine technique and was imbued to the ninth level by the Ancestral Dragon, so my vitality is very strong.â
Why could the Crown Prince say these words so matter-of-factly, as if this was not a secret?
âYour elder brother should know,â the Crown Prince said.
Xia Ji was speechless.
âYou donât know?!â The Crown Prince asked suspiciously.
âI donât know,â Xia Ji replied frankly.
The Crown Prince said, â Xia Ji, youâre indeed the one who hid the deepest among us brothers. Youâve obtained three great techniques from the Ancestral Dragonâs Immersion: the Nine Yang Heart Sutra, a powerful Buddhist defense technique, and a strange power. The Ancestral Dragon thinks highly of you.
But even now, Iâve already become like this. Are you still unwilling to believe
Xia Ji was speechless.
âThe heavens have opened their eyes,â the Crown Prince said, âand a calamity is about to arise.
The Ancestral Dragon blessed the royal family.
Destiny is the power of the world.
Power is the time.
At that time, heroes came forth in large numbers, and gods and devils danced in chaos.
âTherefore, every time the princes and princesses of our generation turn sixteen or seventeen, they will dream of the Ancestral Dragon. The Ancestral Dragon will bless them and bestow divine power on them. They will soar to the ninth level.
This is very inconceivable, but I confirmed with Xia Ji that she also received the Ancestral Dragonâs blessing when she was sixteen.
Xia Ji is my sister. She wonât lie to me.
As for the other sisters-in-law, I have also observed them. Although they are hiding it from each other, they should have all experienced this fortuitous encounter.â
Xia Xiaosu couldnât believe that she had spent so much time with a bunch of princes and princesses who pretended to be pigs every dayâŠ
The Fourth Princess, Xia Ji, was so gentle and weak, charming and charming, and even looked at herself by the lake. She was actually a great expert?
She suddenly said, âThen brotherâŠâ
Xia Xiaosu looked at Xia Ji as she spoke.
Xia Ji nodded and lied through his teeth, ââYes, I did dream of it.â
âIâm almost 17. Will I be dreaming of the Ancestral Dragon soon?â Xia Xiaosu was delighted.
However, she thought about it and suddenly said, âThatâs not right. If the emperor knew that brother had received enlightenment, why did he let brother stay here to guard the city?â
Heâs crazy! â the Crown Prince said coldly. I still donât understand why he wanted to harm me!â
âThe Emperor harmed you?â Xia Xiaosu asked in surprise. How could he harm you? Youâve always been filial to him âŠâ
She thought of the crown prince and the emperor. This pair of father and son used to be such a loving father and filial son. The emperor treated him completely different from her and her brother.
The Crown Prince coughed violently. His body was too severely damaged to produce any violent emotional fluctuations. After a long time, he suppressed his emotions and spoke slowly.
âThe cultivation technique I obtained is powerful and focuses on recovery. In other words, on this battlefield, no matter how badly injured I am, I can recover.
And the reason why I became like this wasnât because of the Frost Giantâs sneak attack.
My 100,000-strong army was not destroyed because of the Frost Giants!
The Wolf Sealing Pass is the strongest pass at the border. Itâs more than a hundred feet high and there are six passes in front and back. No matter how incompetent I am, I canât lose this pass overnight!
Moreover, I had carefully set up my defenses and had never been careless. I had even studied Guifangâs history and culture. I had even placed the Frost Giant, which had never appeared before, on my guard!
I set up braziers every five meters, and the heavy defensive equipment piled up at six levels of the checkpoint. Hundreds of scout teams scouted day and night, and my trusted generals took turns patrolling. It was impossible for me to not be able to defend!
ButâŠSomeone assassinated an important general who followed me before Guifang launched a surprise attack. Then, he held me back during the siege of the Frost Giants and defeated me head-on.
If he wasnât hiding in the camp, if he wasnât my trusted aide, I wouldnât have been able to get him.
He thought I was dead, so he left. But he didnât expect me to crawl back from hell!â
Xia Xiaosu couldnât imagine the twists and turns of the process.
It was also impossible to imagine how painful the Crown Prince had experienced.
Her brother had been under house arrest for nearly three years, and she had been living carefully ever since her mother died.
But what about the Crown Prince?
He had gained the upper hand, and everything had been smooth sailing for him. He was like a dragon soaring in the sky, but at that moment, he was betrayed by his loved ones and fell directly into the endless hell. The hatred in his heart was already indescribable, right?
She followed the Crown Princeâs words and asked, ââWho is he? Why did you treat him as your confidant?â
â I donât know who he is. The emperor pointed him to me in the royal study and said that he could be trusted and could save my life at a critical moment. But it was all a lie, a lie!!! â Cough cough cough.
The Crown Princeâs expression was ferocious as he roared out these words. His entire body was twitching, but the energy around him was not weak. The surrounding air was shaken as if many tiny firecrackers had exploded at the same time.
He coughed as he clenched his fists tightly.
He coughed very loudly, as if he was going to cough out all his burnt internal organs.
After a long time, he calmed down.
He closed his eyes and said in a hoarse voice, â Thatâs a monk. He formed hand seals, and the world burned. â
âHeâs very powerful, and his cultivation technique faintly counters me.â
Actually, even if he didnât sneak attack and his cultivation technique wasnât restrained, I wouldnât be able to defeat him. However, this way, killing me was indeed foolproof.
As expected of my good Imperial Father. He even sent someone to kill me, yet he understands me so well! Cough cough coughâŠâ
The three of them fell silent.
What was originally thought to be a simple matter suddenly became complicated. This water was no longer a question of whether it was deep or shallow. It was simply a vast ocean that was unrestrained and one did not know the bottom.
âThen why did Tian Zi want to kill you?â Xia Xiaosu asked.
The Crown Prince laughed self-mockingly before turning to Xia Ji and saying, ââ After I crawled out of hell, I kept thinking about it, but I couldnât understand it no matter how hard I thought about it. It was only when I realized that he wanted you to defend the city and send you to your death that I understood⊠Maybe I saw something I shouldnât have.â
âWhatâs that?â
âHe ate Lady Jade.â The Crown Prince said calmly, â Your biological mother. â
Xia Xiaosu felt her brain buzz and her ears almost went deaf.
âMotherâŠ
After that, she watched her brother and the Crown Prince talk about many things, but she couldnât hear a single word. It wasnât until the Crown Prince left the palace that she came back to her senses.
She found herself trembling.
The words â eat Lady Jade â were like knives stabbing into her heart, twisting and twisting. She was in pain in silence, but she couldnât make a sound. It was like a nightmare, and she couldnât wake up no matter how hard she tried. She thought she had seen the darkness, but she suddenly realized that she was still naive.
It turned out that she had just walked out of the light, and the dark road ahead was something she could not see through or see clearly.
Tears gathered in her eyes.
It was not until her brother hugged her and held her in his arms that tears rolled down her face.
The princess, who thought she had grown up, became a child again. She cried loudly in the only embrace in the world..
