61 Chapter 061 - Wedding Day

Inside the Ba residence, Ho Wai reports back to Ba Yue. He has relayed the message from Li Dong Man to her and left shortly after. Ba Yue finally feels like everything is finally over here for her. She doesn't have to think about revenge anymore, everything is in the past now. All she has to do now is to break the seal on the Han sisters and advance to the Purple Level. She believes Lok Son is going to finish up soon on his side, so she should hurry too.

After studying a week on the LJ Magic book, she's starting to understand how great of a book it is. For beginners, it won't be easy to use magic without preparing some stuff first. According to the book, if she wants to use healing or medicine magic, she needs herbs or plants and a small amount of her energy power when casting the spell to perform the magic. But other than healing magic, all other magic requires only energy power to cast the spell to perform magic. The amount of energy power to cast different kinds of spells varies and require the user to have different levels to perform it.

For example; if she wants to break the seals on the Han sisters, she will need to have at least sky level and grade two to cast this spell. But for people that don't have that level, they can use energy stones as a helping tool. If the spellcaster is one grade under the requirement, then he/she will need to use 1 energy stones to help them perform the magic. If they are one level under the requirement, then they will need 10 energy stones, etc.

Ba Yue had studied the seal on the Han sisters, there's a small marking or a sign on their Dian-tian to seal up their power. This kind of seal is mid-level and requires the spell caster to be at least a sky level, grade two to perform. So in order to unseal it now also requires a sky level, grade two or higher level person to remove it.

She knew that purple level isn't the highest cultivation, but she didn't know what's after that. So after asking Little Red, she was told that after the purple level, there are no more color levels. It will be sky level with grade 1-10 and after that is the god level, even people in the upper plane world very rarely able to reach god level.

The person that cast the seal on the Han sisters knew that this lower plane world doesn't have anyone stronger than a purple level. Even if there are sky level people here, they can't help the girls remove the seal if they don't know magic. The reason why that person sends the girls here after sealing their power is that he/she knew that no one here can help them. With their power sealed away, they are just weak girls and might not even be able to survive in this harsh world by themselves.

As Ba Yue got lost in her thought, Han Chu came to notify her that someone is here to see her.

"Young Miss, Gao Sing is here to see you." Han Chu said as she leads Gao Sing to the courtyard where Ba Yue is.

"Oh. That's a surprise, what brings you here?" Ba Yue asked.

"Miss Ba, my master wants me to relay a message for you. He said that thing on his side is almost finished. Everything on his side will end after the second prince's wedding ends. He wants to know if are you done on your side and ready to leave soon? Or do you need more time to prepare? He wanted to come in person, but he got held up taking care of something right now."

"He's quick. Tell him that I'm done on my side but still needs a little extra time to do something. And before we leave here, I want to go see my two brothers and said goodbye to them. It wouldn't take much time and he doesn't have to go with me."

"I will relay your answer and message back to master. If you will excuse me, I'll take my leave now." Gao Sing left after saying that.

Ba Yue went back to her room to continue her cultivation. She needs to hurry and try to advance faster. She doesn't have much time since the second prince's wedding is going to be two weeks. She wants to advance and then break the seal on the Han sisters before she goes, so she can bring the girls with her. Even though advancing a little bit doesn't help much, but being able to save an extra energy stone means one extra for her to use in the future.

------------------

Two weeks have passed and today is the day of the second prince's wedding with the third miss of the tang family. Many guests have come to the wedding and most of them are high government officials and big influential families. Of course, the Ba Family have also been invited to the wedding.

Ba Yue and her father didn't want to go to the wedding, but this is a royal wedding so they can't refuse. They both dress up nicely and went to the wedding together. Ba Yue knows that something most likely will happen today, but she's not worried. If something dangerous were to happen, Lok Son will definitely warn her ahead of time.

The wedding is very gland and everything seems normal. The second prince and Tang Wen Yi finished the wedding ceremony smoothly and Tang Wen Yi has been taken back to the new couple's bedroom. The second prince stayed behind to take care of the guest at the reception. Just when Ba Yue thought that this wedding is going way too smoothly, a large number of guards suddenly came in and blocked the door. They are preventing people from entering and leaving.

The guests in the reception hall are confused with what's happening. Even the Tangs' who are supposed to be the second prince's in law have no idea either. Ba Yue knew that the good show is about to begin. Just like she thought, the emperor was angry with what's happening and finally speaks out.

"Who gives you people the permission to come in here? What's going on here?" The emperor shouts.

"Imperial father, no need to get angry. They are here under my order." The second prince said it calmly.

"Explain yourself, why do you have so many guards show up here? The emperor is angry and he has a bad feeling about this.

"Imperial father, today is my big day. I finally married a wangfei and is all grown up. You are getting older and I want to help you take care of this country. And most of the high government officials here also agree with this." The second prince said with a big smile on his face. He has been waiting for this day for a very long time.

"Good. Good. What a good son you are? The emperor said it sarcastically to his son, he knew that this son was up to no good. But he didn't expect him to take action on his own wedding day. "So you are forcing me to retire now with these few guards of yours? I'm only going to say it once and give you a chance to repent for what you did. If you give up your plans now, then I'll pretend this has never happened and you are still my son. But if you insist on doing things this way, then don't blame me."

The second prince almost laughs out loud. Does he really think that he's stupid? If he gives up his plans now, his father will definitely punish him later on even if it's not now. And he has prepared this day with his grandfather for a long time, so he's not scared of this father of his!

"I'll say the same thing back to you. If you quietly hand over the throne then you are still my imperial father and can still stay here and live out your life in comfort and peace. Otherwise, I'll have to ask you to live peacefully somewhere else."

The emperor is furious with the second's prince words, he immediately turns to concubine Liu and shouts, "so this is the good son that you've taught?"

"Your majesty, you can blame us. Who told you to always favors the seventh prince? Even after his death, you still wouldn't look at my son or treat him better. My father and other government officials have suggested to you to choose a crown prince, but you wouldn't choose. In that case, we will help you choose." Concubine Liu said, she really had enough of this heartless man.

"Humph! Just because I didn't want to choose a crown prince right now, you people think you can choose for me! Who do you people think is the real emperor! You people are committing treason!" The emperor shouts at the government officials that are supporting the second prince. He then turns to the second prince. "What do you think others would say about you if you ascend to the throne by forcing me to hand it to you! The citizens won't accept an emperor like you!"

"You don't have to worry about me. The people here won't say a word about what happened here tonight. I'll make sure about that before they are allowed to leave this room. And if they don't agree, then they can take their time in the prison cell to think it over. Even if the others know about this, I'm not worried at all. As an emperor, the citizens won't dare to say anything about me if they still want their lives.

Imperial father, stop the useless struggle. The palace captain guard supports me, he has already ordered the guards to surrounded the whole reception hall and the surrounding area. Nobody is allowed to enter or leave here without my permission."

Just when the second prince though he has won and the throne is now his, the elder prince spoke up. "Second imperial younger brother, I don't think you should be that confident. Even if the imperial father has to retire, the next in line for the throne is me, the eldest prince and the first son!" The usual quiet elder prince suddenly seems like a different person today.

"That's right! You are just a concubine's son, how dare you try to steal the throne!" The empress also spoke up, she has been released from her grounding punishment to attend the wedding. She is the empress, so she has to be here for the ceremony since the Empress is the mother of all the princes and princesses.

"So what if my son is just a concubine's son? He still has the royal blood running in him and have the right to the throne too. This world is all about power and strength. Whoever is stronger wins and the loser will have nothing. Your son is so weak, even if he became an emperor, I don't think he will be able to rule for long. My son is the second price and he is stronger and healthier than your son. He also has my father, minister Liu's support and many other government officials. No matter, how you look at it, my son is the best person for the throne!"

The empress and concubine Liu's fighting obviously shows how much they wanted the throne for their sons. The emperor is regretting not putting them in their place before when they both have committed grave crimes. He knew full well that the empress is the one responsible for the attack many years ago that had killed the woman he loved and injured his seventh prince. He also knows that it was concubine Liu and his second son that's responsible for poisoning Lok Son, which the poison eventually killed him too. If he were to take action earlier, then this might now have happened.

Suddenly another group of men rushes inside the reception hall. They are dressed differently than the other guards that came in first. One of the guards came up the elder prince.

"Elder prince, we have arrived. Sorry for being late, it took us a little time to fight our way through to come in him." The guard is referring to fighting the guards that support the second prince.

Ba Yue was watching this show on the side the whole time. She thought how stupid the second prince is and how stupid this show is. Just when she through this is the typical son stealing the throne from his father kind of show, that's suddenly a twist to it. This is getting more interesting and she's glad she came today because she gets to watch an interesting show.
