C478 He Had to Bury His Crown

It was already deep into the night. The moonlight poured down like a waterfall, covering the entire hall with a mysterious veil. The rest of the people had already left. In the huge Universal Hall, only Mu Che and Mu Yan were left, making it seem spacious and terrifying.

"Yan, can you agree to Royal Father's last request?"

The moonlight shone through the window onto Mu Che's face, instantly making his face look even paler and more sickly. With a cough, he spoke weakly.

Mu Yan wiped away the tears at the corners of his eyes and smiled. "Royal Father, he said. Royal Father, if you have any more requests, just tell me. I will definitely do my best to satisfy them. "

Mu Che said slowly, "You are the one who made Royal Father worry the most. In terms of temperament, you are many times stronger than Han'er. Therefore, before you die, there is one thing that Royal Father needs to entrust to you. I believe you will not disappoint him. "

Hearing Mu Che's words, which sounded like he was going to say his last words, Mu Yan could not help but feel a tingling in his nose. He gritted his teeth and said, "Please say it, Royal Father. "

"Every generation of imperial power is accompanied by a bloody storm. A regime that has never experienced bloodshed is destined to never be able to live. So the last thing I want you to do is to usurp the throne. "

After Mu Che said these words plainly, Mu Yan's facial expression changed instantly. He said in shock, "Possess. . . Usurp the throne?"

Mu Che nodded his head. His tone carried a hint of indisputable intent. "I will make a will in a while. It will state that I will pass on the throne to Han-er, but I do not intend to let Han-er succeed the throne so easily. What I want you to do is to tamper with the edict and use any means necessary to fight for the throne with Han-er. You can even take his life. "

When he heard that Mu Che was going to pass the throne to Mu Han, Mu Yan was initially a little disappointed. However, the more he listened, the uglier his expression became. When Mu Che suggested that he could take Mu Han's life for the sake of the throne, he couldn't help but stand up and say in disbelief, "But. . . "

"There's no buts!" Mu Che interrupted him coldly and said with a trace of bloodthirstiness in his eyes, No buts, no buts, no buts, no buts, no buts, no buts, no buts, no buts, no buts, no buts! "The alternation of imperial power requires the successors to kill each other to realize it. A coup without bloodshed is not a coup. Later, I will pass on the incomplete version of the Nine Palace Eight Trigrams Formation to you. Just this alone is enough to defeat thousands of soldiers and horses. "

"Nine Halls Eight Trigrams Formation?!" Mu Yan's body trembled. Obviously, he didn't expect that the First Killing Formation, which was said to be able to kill devils and immortals, would be in Royal Father's hands. He couldn't help but exclaim in shock, "Even if it's just a broken formation, its power is probably enough to shock the world. Doesn't that mean that brother will surely be defeated?"

"You don't have to worry about that. In fact, before Han'er left the palace. . . I have already given him the transfer order to summon Four Great Generals. In this way. . . He has an army of four hundred thousand, and you have the Immortal Execution Broken Formation. In terms of strength alone, all of you are equally matched. " Mu Che said indifferently, "Yan Er, He wants you to stop Han Er from inheriting the throne at all costs. "

Mu Yan took a deep breath and said bitterly. "What if I succeed?"

"That means that Han'er is not the best candidate to inherit the throne. You can totally replace him. "

Mu Che's voice echoed in Mu Yan's ears like a huge bell. He stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do. After a long while. . .

He woke up, and his eyes revealed an indescribable determination.

In Mu Che's last life, he passed the incomplete Nine Palace Eight Trigrams Formation to Mu Yan without holding anything back. As for those Imperial Physicians and all those who knew about it, they were all mercilessly killed by Mu Yan. At the same time, Mu Yan started forming alliances with the Martial King. He was trying to create an illusion that he was trying to seize power.

After taking the lead to rope Grand Tutor Lin in, dozens of other ministers joined Mu Yan's camp one after another. This made those who had always supported Mu Han pay more attention to him, including Iron Blood Prime Minister Ye Wu and Minister of Rites, Liu Wenn. They frequently came to the Limitless Palace to discuss countermeasures with the four Shadow Guards, who was highly regarded by Mu Han. However, because Mu Han wasn't by his side, there were many plans that he couldn't come up with. Just as everyone was in a dilemma, Mu Che suddenly sent someone to summon the four Shadow Guards to the Qiankun Palace. He also ordered them to bring Mu Han back to the palace. It was as if the four Shadow Guards had found their backbone. The first thing they did was to search for Mu Yan.

The plan went smoothly as Mu Che had expected. Finally, when Mu Yan poured a bowl of poisonous soup into Mu Che's mouth in front of Lee Xiao, everything became real and fake.

The poison soup was also Mu Che's order. However, looking at Mu Che's cold corpse, even Mu Yan himself did not know how to define himself as a loyal traitor. Evil? Heh, it had nothing to do with it anymore. Right now, he was just a Martial King who had schemed to usurp the throne!

Mu Yan told himself in his heart.

He sent someone to bury Royal Father's corpse in secret and tampered with the edict as Mu Che had expected. Then, he picked up the sword that Mu Che liked to wear the most when he was alive and resolutely stepped out of the hall. With just one sword strike, he was able to force hundreds of officials back.

Finally, Mu Han returned. When he heard the news, he couldn't describe the emotions in his heart. The moment he saw Mu Han. . . Mu Che's face appeared in his memory. He felt that it was Royal Father who had warned him not to be soft-hearted in the underworld. Therefore, he greeted him with his usual hypocritical smile, and shocked the entire mausoleum with the tragic death of twenty-three officials.

That night, he led eight hundred royal guards into the Everlasting Palace where he was and had a battle of destiny with him. Just like ten years ago, he was still defeated miserably. He felt a touch of coldness at his throat and a deep bitterness surged in his heart.

In the end, he couldn't compare to him, and he understood a principle. A mediocre person would resist no matter what. In the face of a true genius, it was inevitable that he would be crushed. It was not that he did not work hard enough, but there were some things that could not be achieved by hard work.

That night, he allowed everyone to enter the First Killing Formation. When Mu Han disappeared completely, his heart became empty, as if he had lost something very important.

Royal Father had already ascended to the heavens, and the entire country had buried his crown.

How could this not be a form of irony? The true corpse of Royal Father had been buried in a corner of the palace three days ago. When he was buried, he didn't hear a single sound of death. Currently, there was only a piece of clothing in the coffin, but it caused the entire country to be filled with grief. When he heard the sorrowful cries in his ears, he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

If nothing unexpected happened, today would be the day he ascended to the throne. After receiving the news, countless people said that he had wild ambitions, but they didn't know that he had too many stories hidden in his heart. It was just that he was destined not to tell anyone about it.

He originally thought that no one could stop him. When he saw that the Iron Blood Prime Minister, Ye Wu, was going to follow Liu Hong's footsteps and spill his blood on the Universal Hall, a trace of reluctance flashed across his heart. However, he fiercely suppressed it. If he wasn't ruthless enough, how could he call himself an emperor!

However, when Four Great Generals's figure appeared in the hall, a trace of disbelief flashed across his eyes. No one knew that he was truly excited for Mu Han, who was about to appear. Everyone could only see the ferociousness on his face.

The moment Mu Han's figure stepped into the main hall, he finally got what he wanted. He finally got the chance to experience how amazing the ten-year sword technique, which Royal Father feared when he was still alive, was.

However, what no one noticed was that the moment his figure fell, a smile appeared in his eyes.

"Royal Father, my mission. . . Has finally been completed. . . "
