Chapter 319: Invite Count Frost Flame to the Throne
Just as Dugu Bo used the lives of their entire sect to hold back the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Xue Qinghe, on his side, had already entered the city gate, welcomed by the Imperial Guards within the palace.
And after entering the city gate, he immediately, without a word, killed a group of Imperial Guards loyal to Xue Beng.
Under the dimensionality reduction strike of the Soul Douluo and Titled Douluo.
The Imperial Guards had no power to resist whatsoever.
Especially after Ling Yan, who had been commanded by Sun Yu to recall Dugu Bo, returned.
Once the pressure from the three Titled Douluo was unleashed, the Imperial Guards basically all knelt on the ground, singing surrender.
Walking along, under the Imperial Guards' reports.
Everyone quickly arrived at the main hall.
It was also the place where court was held to discuss state affairs.
As soon as he entered, Xue Qinghe saw Xue Beng, dressed in imperial robes, sitting on the highest seat.
At the same time, he also saw Prince Xue Xing sitting on the ground beside him, his face full of despair.
"Uncle Xue Xing, Fourth Brother, this move of yours truly makes my heart feel cold...."
Xue Qinghe looked at the two, speaking with a compassionate tone.
"Hmph, Xue Qinghe, the victor is king, the loser is a bandit. Enough with the nonsense, just do it.... If I frown even once, I'm not your uncle!!"
Prince Xue Xing looked at Xue Qinghe, speaking with a gloomy tone.
"Clan Head Yang...."
Not long after, as Xue Xing's voice just fell.
Sun Yu said softly.
Yang Wudi, upon hearing the instruction, flashed his figure.
The Soul Breaking Spear gleamed forth.
At the same time, Xue Xing only felt a sudden darkness before his eyes.
His body seemed to feel a powerful pushing force.
He was directly pushed by this force onto the wall behind him.
Afterwards, when Prince Xue Xing came to his senses, he saw the Soul Breaking Spear piercing through his chest.
And himself, currently pinned to the wall by this Soul Breaking Spear....
Prince Xue Xing took a few quick glances, then exhaled his last breath with a complicated expression.
Regarding his uncle's death, Xue Beng's expression showed no change whatsoever.
Even when looking at Xue Qinghe slowly walking forward.
Xue Beng's face showed no change whatsoever.
"Second Brother, are you planning to personally send me on my way?!"
Xue Beng looked at Xue Qinghe, asking in a calm tone.
"No matter what, you are my Fourth Brother, and you were Emperor for a few days. Under heaven, besides me, no one else should have the right to kill you..."
Xue Qinghe said with a faint smile.
At the same time, he had already taken out the Godly Zhuge Crossbow.
Aiming it at Xue Beng.
"Fourth Brother, how good it would have been if you had continued to be a profligate!"
Xue Qinghe spoke with a complicated tone.
"Hmph, it's just boiling a frog in warm water. Once you ascend to the throne, won't I die sooner or later anyway! Since I'll die sooner or later, I might as well act first!"
Xue Beng looked at the Godly Zhuge Crossbow radiating a cold aura, chuckling casually.
"Fourth Brother, you are wrong again. Father Emperor could tolerate Uncle Xue Xing living, so why would you think I wouldn't give you the same treatment as Uncle Xue Xing?"
Upon hearing this, Xue Beng's face froze. Although his expression was hesitant, he still spoke with a resolute tone.
"Second Brother, nothing can be said now. Just do it.."
"Bang!!"
"Bang!!!"
The next moment, after Xue Qinghe secretly said goodbye in his heart, he directly pressed the firing button of the Godly Zhuge Crossbow.
However, just as Xue Qinghe pressed the firing button.
The sound of a spring activating from a Godly Zhuge Crossbow not in his hand rang in Xue Qinghe's ears.
Hearing this sound, Xue Qinghe's consciousness first froze.
Then, he subconsciously dodged.
But, it was too late.
He saw streams of cold light shoot out from under the dragon throne where Xue Beng was sitting.
Directly striking Xue Qinghe.
"Crown Prince!"
Seeing this scene, the originally calm crowd instantly became dumbfounded.
Immediately, they rushed forward.
Not long after, they saw Xue Qinghe, whose chest was covered in blood, and Xue Beng, who had already died but still had a mocking smile on his face.
Sun Yu lifted the obstructing chair.
Suddenly, he saw two Godly Zhuge Crossbows that had already completed their firing state.
Just now, Xue Qinghe had been struck by these two Godly Zhuge Crossbows without any defense.
"Crown Prince!"
Looking at this scene before them, everyone present was stunned.
They never expected the course of events to turn out this way.
Xue Beng, at the moment of his death, actually chose to drag his Second Brother, Xue Qinghe, with him.
"Cough cough!!"
"Cough cough!!!"
Xue Qinghe slumped to the ground, his face pale and full of a bitter smile.
"Fourth Brother, is this your last struggle.... Are you unwilling to let me ascend to the throne, even if it means plunging the Empire into a state of leaderlessness?!"
"Clan Head Yang, aren't your Breaking Clan a family of alchemists?! Hurry over!! Ling Yan, go call my grandfather and Grandfather Ye Qian over!!"
"Yes!!"
Ling Yan, hearing Sun Yu's instruction, quickly flew away from here.
And Yang Wudi also immediately rushed over.
Just as he was about to take Xue Qinghe's pulse.
He was stopped by Xue Qinghe.
"No need, Clan Head Yang, I can feel that my time is running out... My heart is shattered. Unless a deity intervenes, otherwise, it's beyond saving...
Xiao Yu, I'm sorry, I can't fulfill my past promises to you. From now on, you'll have to walk this path alone. The future of the Empire, I entrust to you..."
After speaking, Xue Qinghe lost his breath.
Completely falling into a pool of blood....
"Crown Prince!"
Sun Yu looked at Xue Qinghe, who had completely lost his life.
His expression instantly fell into a daze.
And Yang Wudi and the others, upon seeing this scene, were also full of daze and confusion.
Why did this situation turn out this way?
Weren't they here to help Xue Qinghe reclaim the throne?!
Now Xue Qinghe is dead, Xue Beng is dead, and Xue Xing is also dead. Who else can claim the imperial throne?!
Amidst a daze and confused expressions, everyone present fell into a state of silence, at a loss for what to do.
And outside.
Ling Yan also called Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo, upon hearing that something had happened in the palace, immediately rushed over without a word.
However, as soon as he arrived, he saw the almost tragic scene.
"Xiao Yu...."
Dugu Bo looked at the dazed Sun Yu with a face full of shock.
His face was filled with complicated emotions.
Not long after, just as the atmosphere on the scene became very heavy.
Porcupinefish Douluo and Snake Lance Douluo, who had been silent, knelt on one knee and spoke.
"We ask Frost Flame Earl to ascend to the imperial throne..."
"....."
Instantly, as soon as Porcupinefish Douluo and Snake Lance Douluo uttered these words, the entire place was shocked.
Especially Dugu Bo, who was just about to comfort Sun Yu, almost fell down the stairs in fright.
What did you two just say?!
You plan to let Sun Yu ascend to the imperial throne?!
My goodness, I....
However, after a brief thought, Dugu Bo immediately chose to stand on their side.
And Niu Gao and the others were not fools. After a brief moment of stunned silence, they all respectfully spoke to Sun Yu.
"Frost Flame Earl, for the safety of the Empire, please ascend to the imperial throne!"
