Eternal Sacred King - Chapter 2041

“E-Escaped!”

Prince Yuan Zuo’s voice was trembling and he was drenched in sweat, not daring to look up at the heir of King Jin.

“Very good,”

The heir of King Jin nodded slightly and looked at Prince Yuan Zuo before asking, “You should know who Feng Cantian is, right?”

“Y-Yes!”

!!

Prince Yuan Zuo nodded.

“You should know how much of an impact Feng Cantian’s escape has on the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom, right?” The heir of King Jin asked again. His tone was calm and emotionless.

“I do,”

Prince Yuan Zuo gulped.

Pausing for a moment, the gaze of the heir of King Jin suddenly turned incomparably sharp, like a sharp knife that could pierce Prince Yuan Zuo’s chest!

“Since you know everything, why didn’t you inform me beforehand about this?”

There was a shuddering power in the voice of the heir of King Jin.

“I-I… I…!

Prince Yuan Zuo’s face was pale as a sheet as his body trembled. He raised his head and tried his best to explain, “Feng Cantian was already severely injured. I wanted to suppress him before handing him over to you…”

“Nonsense!”

Suddenly, the heir of King Jin hollered and waved his sleeves, causing an invisible force to collide heavily against Prince Yuan Zuo through the void.

Bang!

Prince Yuan Zuo was sent flying by that attack and fell dozens of feet away. He spat out a mouthful of blood and sprawled on the ground like a dead dog.

That attack from the heir of King Jin had broken more than half of his bones!

He nearly fainted from the pain.

“Yuan Zuo, even in front of me, you’re still spouting nonsense,”

The heir of King Jin said coldly with an icy expression, “You just want to fight for credit! You want to perform in front of father! You want to suppress me!”

What sort of a character was the heir of King Jin?

Initially, he was ranked seventh among the many descendants.

However, because of his ruthless methods, decisiveness and extraordinary endowment, he rose step by step.

The six older brothers in front of him died for various reasons and King Anshi was now the current heir!

Everyone in the royal family knew that the death of the six princes was definitely related to King Anshi.

However, King Jin merely turned a blind eye to this matter.

King Jin had many descendants and he was even happy to see such a situation.

That was the only way a truly ruthless person could stand out from the many princes and inherit his throne and endless territory!

The heir of King Jin had experienced too much bloodshed and Prince Yuan Zuo’s thoughts could not be hidden from him!

“Elder brother, please spare me! Please spare my life…”

Prince Yuan Zuo crawled bit by bit in the direction of the heir of King Jin, coughing blood and begging for mercy in a miserable manner.

King Tianxing stood at the side expressionlessly with his hands behind his back.

He had seen too many fights between princes.

He was only loyal to King Jin and would definitely not interfere.

There was no pity in the eyes of the heir of King Jin when he saw Prince Yuan Zuo’s pitiful appearance.

Bloodline and kinship did not matter to him.

Furthermore, they were only half-brothers with different mothers.

“I can understand why you want to take credit and stand out,”

The heir of King Jin said coldly, “However, you should know your limits!”

“Elder brother, I know my mistake now,”

More than half of Prince Yuan Zuo’s bones were shattered as he crawled on the ground. He was covered in dust and looked wretched.

His bloodline could not recover within a short period of time after the attack of the heir of King Jin.

“More than a year ago, when Feng Cantian escaped from Absolute Thunder City under your jurisdiction, I did not punish you,”

The heir of King Jin continued, “To think that you would still dare to act on your own and commit such a huge mistake!”

Perfected Immortal Jing Yue glanced at Prince Yuan Zuo at the side and sighed internally.

He knew that if he did not stand out and say something, the heir of King Jin would vent his anger on him as well and he might even die here!

“Your Highness, please allow me to say a few words,”

Perfected Immortal Jing Yue said in a deep voice, “His Highness Yuan Zuo’s preparations this time round were indeed foolproof. He even invited Perfected Immortal Fei Yun of Imperial Wind Temple to deal with Feng Cantian.”

“In reality, Feng Cantian was severely injured by you and King Tianxing and was indeed vulnerable. He could not defend against our encirclement. Unexpectedly…”

Perfected Immortal Jing Yue recounted in detail how Su Zimo offered the Seven Glow Immortal Ginseng as well as the appearance of Perfected Immortal Burial Night.

“That was what happened. Your Highness, please let us off and allow us to atone for our sins,”

Perfected Immortal Jing Yue kowtowed and begged.

The gaze of the heir of King Jin shifted between Perfected Immortal Jing Yue and Prince Yuan Zuo in silence.

The world fell into a dead silence.

For Prince Yuan Zuo and Perfected Immortal Jing Yue, every single breath felt as long as a thousand years.

Their lives depended on a single thought from the heir of King Jin!

“Scram,”

The heir of King Jin said indifferently, “From now on, I don’t want to hear any news of Remnant Night within the territory of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom.”

“Definitely, definitely!”

Prince Yuan Zuo was overjoyed.

He knew that since the heir of King Jin said that, his life was saved.

“Thank you, Your Highness,”

Perfected Immortal Jing Yue kowtowed once more and said, “From now on, I’ll definitely do my best to repay Your Highness for not killing me.”

King Tianxing watched coldly from the sidelines in silence but nodded to himself.

The reason why the heir of King Jin did not kill Prince Yuan Zuo was because the latter was of no threat to him.

After today’s incident, Prince Yuan Zuo would not dare to harbor any other thoughts in front of him.

What the heir of King Jin did even managed to take Perfected Immortal Jing Yue under his wing.

When King Tianxing saw that the matter was over, he said slowly, “Your Highness, let’s chase after Feng Cantian first.”

“After obtaining the Seven Glow Immortal Ginseng, Feng Cantian’s injuries will recover as long as he recuperates for a period of time. At that time, it won’t be easy to encircle him.”

“Let’s go,”

The heir of King Jin nodded and waved his palm, slashing in front of him.

The void in front of the heir of King Jin was torn by his palm like a piece of silk, revealing a dark spatial tunnel.

The heir of King Jin disappeared in a flash.

King Tianxing followed closely behind.

The crack in midair healed slowly and the terrifying might that lingered in the skies of the Soaring Dragon Mountain Range dissipated as well.

Perfected Immortal Jing Yue heaved a sigh of relief.

A gentle breeze blew and his body turned cold. Unknowingly, his clothes were drenched in sweat.

“Your Highness, how are you?”

Perfected Immortal Jing Yue hurried forward and helped Prince Yuan Zuo up. He took out a few pills and fed him.

Prince Yuan Zuo’s expression was extremely grim and his eyes were filled with endless hatred. Gritting his teeth, he said, “Jing Yue, gather all the forces in Green Cloud County and search for Remnant Night’s survivors! Kill them without mercy!”

“The most important thing is to search for Su Zimo!”

“The hatred in my heart won’t be appeased until I tear him into pieces and burn his bones into ashes!”

Prince Yuan Zuo had a menacing expression and grit his teeth so tightly that they were about to shatter.

“There’s more!”

Prince Yuan Zuo continued, “Send this wanted notice to the other counties and get them to help search as well! I want Su Zimo to have no place to hide in the territory of the Great Jin Dynasty! Anyone who provides clues will be rewarded handsomely!”

“Even if you have to dig underground, find him!”
