The crown prince sneered when he saw Lu Xiao’s expectant and fearful expression. "You don’t need to worry; why would this emperor do sothing like going back on my promises?"
The crown prince slowly said, "Back then, this emperor had Mi Lianying lead a group in search of a thod for immortality. After decades of searching, he finally found two things, one is the possession technique."
"And another is the Immortal Phoenix Technique. But possession technique is not the immortal technique, and Immortal Phoenix Technique can only be practiced by the Phoenix clan."
"So, when Olivia beca pregnant with Ruizhi, I used her blood to possess Ruizhi. Which she does not agree with, but in result, the world lost a good queen."
"But the possession technique is not successful, I need more blood for this. Because possession goes against the natural course of this world. So, I thought of a perfect solution for that, which was to first send in a bit of my soul into Ruizhi’s body."
"People have three immortal souls and seven mortal forms. The seven mortal forms represent happiness, anger, grief, fear, love, hatred, and desire. The three immortal souls are the heaven, earth, and fate souls."
"The results of the experint went well. One portion of my soul successfully entered Ruizhi’s body, replacing his fate soul. However, there’s no way I can constantly control his body, so I remain in hiding most of the ti. The fate soul is in charge of thought and intelligence. The reason why he normally looks so slow is because that part was damaged."
"And second, you have already heard about Duke Harold’s family. Their whole family vanished in a single night. Although, I regret that I didn’t get the blood of Dutchess Emily, or not their son, or else my control over this body is not half."
"I knew there would be so great sche during the crown prince’s exam, yet I couldn’t figure out what it was. That was why I granted Catherine so energy and had her use it as protection at a crucial ti. That way, once she used it, this portion of my soul would smoothly awaken. Once that happened, no matter what kind of sches George had, I could easily deal with it."
Sharky was now completely angered knowing the history. Today, he found out why his family was assassinated, and who is his real enemy.
Even Lu Xiao was shocked knowing that a Duke family had vanished, just because of the King’s mood, "Your majesty, did you not feel any pain when killing your loyal subjects."
The crown prince stood with his hands behind his back, a satisfied smile on his face. "Yes, I feel a little pain. But, that’s all, it was their duty to sacrifice themselves for . Now, you have already listened to the reason, it was also your ti."
Lu Xiao’s expression changed. He knew that he was already dead for sure now. Just as he was about to say sothing to see if he could change his fate, the other party raised his finger. A bloody hole instantly appeared between his brows, and he lost his life.
After killing Lu Xiao, the crown prince arrived at Piao Duandiao and Jiao Sigun’s side. "Hm? They’re actually not dead yet." He raised his hand after speaking, clearly about to silence them forever.
Sharky’s heart couldn’t help but pound, he was controlling his anger. Right at that mont, the crown prince turned around to look in his direction, saying, "Show yourself."
But Sharky used Zoom ability and already exited from there. Although he was angry, he will wait for the chance to kill him.
The crown prince’s aura swept around, and when he found nothing, then his eyes returned to Piao Duandiao and Jiao Sigun. He reached out his hand toward their heads, but then he stopped. He muttered to himself, "No, I have to leave two people alive as witnesses."
He confird that the two of them really had fainted. Then, he picked up one in each arm and rushed into the sky before disappearing.
Sharky was looking at the place, from where the Emperor had gone, anger was clearly in his eyes, which he was controlling.
"I have my revenge. I promise, I will burn your whole Empire," Sharky muttered looking at the Emperor vanishing.
Suddenly, a rumble erupted, causing birds to leave the distant forest. Many beasts ran for their lives. It was as if an earthquake had happened.
Sharky was stunned. "What’s happening? There’s sothing strange about this dungeon." He muttered, but he was still confused. "But that shouldn’t be the case! This is the Royal Academy’s territory. This dungeon should be extrely stable!"
But then he said to himself, "Humans know too little about dungeons. All sorts of things can happen in these spatial cracks. I think it’s best if I leave as quickly as possible."
He turned around to run toward the dungeon entrance, but a while later, he heard sounds of fighting ahead. His expression changed. "This is just too much to be a coincidence, right?" He decisively changed directions, planning to take a detour. He didn’t dare to ddle in the fight.
Just then, however, a charming female voice scread. He suddenly froze.
The female voice was clearly Catherine’s. Judging from the sound of her scream, she was already in extre danger at that mont.
———
anwhile, Catherine sat on the ground in despair as she looked at the three deathsworn soldiers that surrounded her.
Her plan had been successful, drawing away the troops that were chasing after her. She had been about to run away, but she had ended up being surrounded by several of King George Manor’s deathsworn soldiers.
As they had split up, she no longer had any guards around her. Furthermore, after she had used her secret technique, she had been drained of strength. She wasn’t a match for these three deathsworn soldiers.
When they saw Catherine’s fair white arm exposed through her torn sleeves, the deathsworn soldiers’ eyes burned hotly.
One of them gulped and said, "Screw it, I’ve already been holding myself back for three years! There hasn’t been a single woman here; my hand has even been getting calluses from all the rubbing! I have to enjoy myself today no matter what!"
One of the other soldiers had so misgivings. "She is the crown princess after all. This doesn’t seem too good."
"Like hell I care if she’s the crown princess! She’s about to beco a corpse anyway." The third person harrumphed. "We’re going to kill her anyway, but if we kill her imdiately, that’d be such a waste. We might as well have so fun first."
The second soldier felt a strange sense of desire when he heard those words. They were deathsworn soldiers without any future anyway. Furthermore, they had lived such desolate lives alongside beasts for three whole years. It was enough to turn any human into a wild beast.
"It’s just a pity, her hair is a bit too white..."
"It’s been three years already! I’ll even fuck a pig, let alone this chick who was hot to begin with."
"Who’s going first?"
Catherine was embarrassed and furious as she listened to their filthy words. She had never expected to end up in this state. Unfortunately, her acupoints had been sealed, so she couldn’t even commit suicide.
The three deathsworn soldiers’ eyes turned red when they saw the crown princess sitting there, weak and powerless. How could they still hold back? They charged over with a roar.
Catherine tried to bite her own tongue to end her life, but her body was sealed and she couldn’t move at all. She could only close her eyes in despair.
But the foul-bodied soldiers didn’t pounce on her the way she had expected. She sensed a gust of wind around her, and the screams of several n followed. She quickly opened her eyes. Those deathsworn soldiers lay collapsed on the ground, their eyes filled with horror. They were already dead.
A familiar figure stood behind them, saying with a sigh, "I guess you guys weren’t that lucky, to have t here after all."
Catherine was happy and surprised to hear that familiar voice. She looked toward that person in disbelief. "Sharky!"
Sharky turned around and said with a smile, "How co you’re always looking so haggard whenever I’m not at your side?" He walked over and undid her seals.
"Sharky!" Catherine could no longer hold herself back. She jumped into his arms and sobbed.
There were just too many things that had happened today. She had lingered on the border of life and death several tis. Just now, she had almost been defiled too.
The worst part was that she’d thought Sharky had already died, yet he was standing alive and well in front of her. Even soone like her, who paid a lot of attention to her bearing, couldn’t hold back all of the emotions she was feeling right now.
"It’s fine; everything is over now." Sharky consoled Catherine when he saw how she was shaking. At the sa ti, he quickly said, "We need to leave as soon as possible. This place is dangerous."
"What’s dangerous?" ca a voice from behind him.
Sharky looked behind him, and saw that the fatty Zhao Ruizhi was nearby, watching the two of them. He no longer had that slow-witted smile, but rather stared at the two of them with sharp eyes.
Catherine also saw the crown prince. Her face turned red and she instinctively pushed Sharky away. "Ruizhi? so you were okay."
Zhao Ruizhi harrumphed in annoyance. "Were you hoping that sothing had happened to ?"
"Not at all!" Catherine felt strangely guilty after having been seen by her husband, and didn’t imdiately react to the crown prince’s strange behavior. "I rember that we ran in different directions, so why are you here alone? Where are Guard Piao and Guard Jiao?" She looked around while she spoke. Unfortunately, she didn’t see any sign of them.
"You deliberately pushed away because you wanted to et him in private, hm?" Zhao Ruizhi remarked coldly.
"What did you say?!" Catherine beca a bit angry when she heard what the crown prince said. When had this fellow dared to speak like this to her? He didn’t even dare to raise his voice normally. "I only just got here too, but then I was almost taken by those King George Manor deathsworn soldiers... But thankfully, Sharky saved in ti."
Zhao Ruizhi said indifferently, "You need to pay attention to your identity. You’re the crown princess. You shouldn’t express any closeness with another man, even if he saves you."
Catherine was stunned and stared at him blankly. She finally realized that this crown prince seed to be a bit different from usual.
"Why are you still not coming over here?" Zhao Ruizhi frowned. He was clearly unhappy to see that she had still been standing next to Sharky all this ti.
Catherine shivered. She seed to have finally sensed the other party’s prestige and pressure. This damn fatty is actually giving off a feeling of pressure?
"Why, he is my brother after all," Catherine asked back.
"Are you teaching how to do things?" Zhao Ruizhi harrumphed. "He saved ? What a joke!"
Catherine stopped. Her brows furrowed deeply as she asked, "Ruizhi, what is wrong with you today?"
Normally, even though she was full of complaints toward him, she had already gotten used to dealing with the slow crown prince after being around him all these years. Sotis, she even found his foolishness a bit cute.
But now, his usual foolishness was nowhere to be seen. She had actually hoped that the crown prince could one day look like this, yet when the day really ca, she felt a mix of estrangent and fear instead.
Zhao Ruizhi didn’t pay her any attention and looked at Sharky, asking, "Were you hiding nearby before?"
Sharky replied with a smile, "Crown prince, what are you saying? I really don’t understand you."
"Look at how sharp you are." Zhao Ruizhi smirked mockingly. "It’s a pity, however; your spice bag gave you away. I slled it back then, but I didn’t react quickly enough. It’s quite strange, actually. How did you avoid my detection?"
Sharky knew that he really had been exposed now. He said, "Sigh, if I really were smart, I wouldn’t have been fooled by you."
Catherine was extrely confused. She couldn’t help but ask, "What are you two saying? We should use this chance to leave as quickly as possible, or else King George Manor’s n will catch up!"
