Capital.

Prince of Ping’an’s Mansion.

At this moment, Ye An was kneeling in front of Prince Ping’an’s study, remaining silent. After a long time, the door of the study opened, and an old voice came through.

“Come in.”

Ye An got up, his face respectful. Upon entering, he saw an emaciated old man sitting behind the desk, wearing a bright yellow robe, emanating an imposing demeanor without anger.

It was Prince Ping’an, Ye Min.

For a short while, the father and son were both silent. After a long time, Ye Min spoke, “You’ve been back in the capital for thirty years now, haven’t you? I’ve lived too long, even you, my prince, are getting old.”

Upon hearing this, Ye An immediately wanted to kneel down, but was stopped by Ye Min, “Today is just a heart-to-heart talk between you and me, don’t think too much, come closer.”

Ye An did not hesitate and went straight to sit down, “1 never thought about these things, 1 only wish for your longevity and health.”

Ye Min did not say much upon hearing this, as if he didn’t care, instead looking out the window with a somewhat distracted spirit.

“Fifty years ago, your father and I were full of energy, thinking that the Dayan Dynasty would eventually fall into our hands, but at that time, you were abducted by the No-Life Evil Cult.”

Hearing this, Ye An’s expression changed, but he did not speak, instead continuing to listen, “At that time, your mother went mad searching for you, and naturally, I turned the capital upside down, but still found no news of you.

Because I was looking for you, I didn’t pay attention to the changes in the court at that time, and by the time the testament appeared, my second brother unexpectedly became the supreme ruler of Dayan.”

When he reached this point, Ye Min’s emotions finally fluctuated, “In the end, my luck was just a little worse, but fortunately, you came back safely.

And you performed very well, when your Queen Mother’s family was in trouble back then, I was confused for a while, but I didn’t expect you to bring back an Innate Master.”

Do you know what I did that night? 1 drank wine all night, knowing that Prince Ping’an’s Mansion finally had a successor.”

By this time, Ye Min was clearly emotional. Ye An was about to say something, but Ye Min’s eyes suddenly became sharp.

“Are you sure you want to fight for it? Let me tell you, if you fail this time, neither you nor 1 can escape, and everyone related to you will die.”

Without any hesitation, Ye An replied, “It was because of me that you lost that position back then, let me help you get it back today.

Besides, if heaven blesses us and we don’t take it, we will suffer the consequences. This originally belonged to you and me, and it’s time to take it back.”

“What if this is Ye Yun’s trick? Will you regret it?”

Ye An shook his head firmly, “I have my people in the palace, and at this moment, he’s really unconscious. This is the best chance for both of us as father and son.”

“How is Master Xuan Kong lately?”

Hearing this question, Ye An’s eyes brightened immediately, “Master is ready, and today he is willing to accompany me to the Imperial City.”

Ye Min looked at Ye An deeply, and Ye An did not avoid his gaze. The two looked directly at each other, and Ye Min took off the Jade Pendant from his waist.

“Both the Five Armies Commander’s Mansion’s Central Army Xie Chaoliang and the Nine Cities Army Commander Fu An are my men; they have already gathered in the Southern City.”

Hearing this, Ye An was excited, “Father, just wait for my good news.”

“No, I’ll go with you. This time, either live or die together, An’er, I’ll ask you one more time, will you regret it?”

“I will not regret it.”

Southern City Gate.

Central Army Commander Xie Chaoliang and Nine Cities Army Commander Fu An had long been waiting with their soldiers, standing before Ye An and Ye Min, who were already wearing armor.

In addition to these people, there were over a thousand martial arts masters, and Ye Min was not surprised that Ye An had secret dealings with the Lifeless Sect.

“Set off.”

“Clear the monarch’s side, remove the traitors!”

Outside the Imperial Palace.

At this moment, the Imperial Army on the city wall was tense, as the torches outside the Imperial City were connected, and they could not see the end.

The slogan “Clear the monarch’s side, remove the traitors!” echoed throughout the Imperial City, and the East City’s noble families all closed their doors tightly.

This was a matter of the royal family, and given the current unclear situation, many people chose to wait and see first.

After all, placing their bets too early could lead to a complete loss, and these ancient families would not make such a mistake.

Ye An didn’t let his troops rush to the city gate in a swarm, but instead turned to the person next to him and respectfully said, “Master, it’s up to you now.”

Standing beside him was Xuan Kong, his face calm, but inside he was extremely excited. If Jinshan Temple were to seize this opportunity, it could restore its former glory.

His appearance today was also a natural move for him. He didn’t have many years left and, with the odds in his favor, he desperately wanted to secure a future for Jinshan Temple.

Moreover, he and Ye An were now in it together. Even if he didn’t come, Ye An’s failure would still involve him, so he might as well go all out.

With a light tap of Xuan Kong’s toes, he instantly appeared atop the Imperial City wall, where the defenders of the Imperial Army fell to their deaths, one by one tumbling from the wall.

Witnessing this, the cheers of the soldiers behind Ye An were unceasing. Xuan Kong was extremely fast, and in no time the Imperial Army at the city gate was swept away.

Facing the massive city gate, he shouted lightly, instantly opening the thick gate that required the combined efforts of over a dozen Intermediate-level martial artists.

“Eliminate the traitors, clear the emperor’s side, charge!”

Seeing this, Ye An was extremely excited, as if the position was getting closer and closer to him.

Not far outside the Imperial City.

Liang Sheng sat calmly on top of a tall building, quietly watching the movement at the Imperial City. Like him, many other people were also guest elders of noble families.

They kept their distance from each other and did not disturb one another, but none of them could detect Liang Sheng’s presence. At this moment, they watched the city gate open, their expressions subtle.

Especially with Xuan Kong’s great display of power, they were deeply shocked. The Innate Nation Protector was indeed extraordinary.

Some of them were already considering if they should help Prince Ping’an and his father at this time. Participating in this could elevate their family’s status.

Quite a few people had this idea, and they could be seen using their full strength to move quickly toward the East City.

In the Imperial City at this time, the sound of battle was continuous. The area outside the Taihe Hall had become a slaughterhouse.

In Liang Sheng’s eyes, it seemed as if the murderous intentions there had turned into substance. However, the threatening qi he had vaguely sensed when he first entered the capital reappeared at this moment.

Afterward, a eunuch with black hair and a clean-shaven white face confronted Xuan Kong. Neither of them took action for the time being, and Liang Sheng immediately became alert upon seeing this.

The battle between Innate Grandmasters was on the verge of breaking out.

Meanwhile, the fighting in front of Taihe Hall became increasingly intense. The Lifeless Sect members under Ye An’s command fought without fear of death, stabbing directly into the center of the Imperial Army’s formation.

For a short while, Ye An’s side seemed to have gained the upper hand. And just then, there was a commotion outside the city gate once again, as the nobles finally couldn’t help but make their move.

“Clear the emperor’s side and eliminate the traitors!”

“Protect His Majesty!”

The choices of the noble families were different, and even the declining and falling noble families made their moves at this time without regret. All they sought was a glimmer of hope, for their family’s decline had become inevitable as time went by.

For a short while, fighting broke out at the city gate. Even from this far away, Liang Sheng could smell the stench of blood.

Facing the dense battlefield killing intent at this moment, Liang Sheng, an Innate Grandmaster, couldn’t help but feel a bit overwhelmed, and he suddenly had a moment of enlightenment.

Although most of the soldiers fighting were ordinary intermediate martial artists, their combined killing intent was enough to send chills down one’s spine, as if they could overthrow heaven and earth with their murderous intent.

For so many years, four of the Seven Great Masters of Dayan had already passed away, leaving only four Innate Grandmasters on the surface.

Master Xuan Kong of Jinshan Temple, the mysterious Innate in the Imperial Palace, Grand General Li Hong, and the Sect Leader of the White Lotus Sect. Besides them, there were no other Innate Grandmasters on the surface.

Grand General Li Hong was stationed on the border and not in the Capital at the moment. It was already a stroke of luck that the White Lotus Sect’s leader wasn’t causing trouble.

At this moment, the mysterious Innate from the Imperial Palace was the eunuch confronting Xuan Kong. The Imperial Army was being suppressed by the rebels, and the situation was precarious.

But just then, Liang Sheng’s calm face suddenly changed. A row of huge crossbows appeared outside Taihe Hall, which, had they been unprepared, would have even made Liang Sheng’s heart tremble.

Huh?

The rumored God Slaying Crossbow that destroyed the Seven Great Sects, the secret weapon of the Dayan Dynasty?
