In the Imperial Palace.
The news soon reached Ji Xuan's ears.
Ji Xuan suddenly slumped down and sat on his seat.
Zhao Yin was also terrified and knelt in front of Ji Xuan.
"How could it be...how could it be like this?"
"A big Heavenly South City with twelve Transcending Tribulation Realm masters couldn't kill a useless person who couldn't cultivate!" Ji Xuan said sternly.
At this moment, Zhao Yin hurriedly said, "Your Highness, I heard that the Alliance Master of the Righteous Path Alliance, Ye Qingfeng, made a move. Otherwise, that Ye Chen would have died long ago!"
"Ye Qingfeng?" Ji Xuan was furious.
"Isn't Ye Qingfeng in closed-door cultivation?"
Zhao Yin hurriedly said, "It's fake news that Ye Qingfeng is in closed-door cultivation. In fact, he has been following that Ye Chen All the way!"
Hearing this, Ji Xuan's heart and lungs ached.
His breathing was rough, and he was extremely angry.
"Trash, a bunch of trash!"
"Could it be that the twelve Transcending Tribulation Realm masters can't deal with Ye Qingfeng?" Ji Xuan asked coldly.
He knew that Ye Qingfeng was only a Transcending Tribulation Realm master.
The twelve Transcending Tribulation Realm masters he recruited were all masters among masters, and they were all extremely powerful.
But even so, the twelve Transcending Tribulation Realm masters were still no match for Ye Qingfeng.
What kind of monster was this Ye Qingfeng?
Moreover, Ye Qingfeng and Ye Chen were both surnamed Ye, and they came from the same sect.
Could this Ye Qingfeng be Ye Chen's grandfather?
Ji Xuan was shocked, but even though the Sima clan was exterminated, there was not a trace of pain on Ji Xuan's face.
There was only anger on his face.
At this moment, Ji Xuan's gloomy face was revealed.
"I originally wanted to borrow the hands of my immortal grandfather and that useless uncle of mine to help me get rid of Ye Chen. However, I didn't expect that they would be so useless," Ji Xuan said coldly.
"Your Highness, what should we do?" Zhao Yin hurriedly asked.
"What should we do?" Ji Xuan said coldly, "Now that things have come to this, we can only make our final arrangements."
"How is it? is everything set up?" Ji Xuan asked.
At this moment, Zhao Yin hurriedly replied, "Reporting to Your Highness, everything is set up. Right now, Yang Xuan of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom has already taken away half of the soldiers. As long as Your Highness gives the order, I guarantee that the entire Eastern Imperial Kingdom will be under our control."
At this moment, Ji Xuan's gaze was ice-cold.
"Even if Ji Wentian is about to die, he isn't willing to pass the throne to me. Since that's the case, don't blame me for being unrighteous if you aren't benevolent!
"Father, since you aren't willing to pass the throne to me, then I can only personally snatch it!" Ji Xuan coldly spoke.
Ji Xuan's gaze was ice-cold as he stared at Zhao Yin. "Give the order, rebel!"
An order was given.
Only to see Ji Xuan slowly stand up.
"Ye Chen, you want to snatch my throne? Then I'll make sure you never return!"
Ji Xuan wanted to seize the throne before Ye Chen arrived. In that case, when Ye Chen arrived, everything would be sealed.
At that time, the entire empire would be his.
So what if Ye Chen came?
...
The Eastern Imperial Kingdom!
In the throne room!
"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
The civil and military officials all knelt down in an instant!
"Rise!"
At this moment, the Emperor Ji Wentian calmly raised his hand.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Suddenly.
At this moment, there was a sound from outside.
"Your Highness, the court is in session now. You can't go in!" The guard at the door shouted.
"Surround them all!"
At this moment, Ji Xuan and his guards charged into the throne room. The guards rushed into the main hall with white blades in their hands and surrounded the officials. When the officials saw this scene...two words suddenly appeared in their hearts, 'palace rebellion!'
"Kneel down!"
His Highness shouted. His Highness' guards immediately held onto the necks of the officials and forced them to kneel down.
At this moment, an official stood up and pointed at his highness, shouting, "Ji Xuan, this is treason! You are rebelling!"
Ji Xuan did not even look at him as he pulled out his long blade. With a cold flash, he raised his blade and slashed down, causing blood to splatter!
The official's head fell to the ground as his eyes widened.
At this moment, the entire hall fell silent. No one dared to speak again.
At this moment, experts appeared one after another, guarding the Emperor's side.
Eunuch Liu Xi also immediately came to the Emperor's side, guarding Ji Wentian.
Ji Wentian coughed up blood.
"Your Majesty!" Everyone was shocked.
At this moment, Ji Wentian waved his hand.
Ji Wentian looked at Ji Xuan and smiled, "Xuan 'er, now that things have come to this, you finally can't hold back anymore?"
Ji Xuan's gaze was ice-cold. He stared at Ji Wentian and said, "Father, I didn't know that Ye Chen was merely a bastard child. You would rather pass the throne to him than to me."
"What is there that I, Ji Xuan, can't compare to Ye Chen?" Ji Xuan coldly stared at Ji Wentian as he asked.
Ji Wentian smiled as he stared at Ji Xuan. "So, when you heard that Chen 'er was fine, you made up your mind and decided to rebel?"
Ji Xuan's gaze was ice-cold as he stared at Ji Wentian. He harshly replied, "That's right, I've already made the arrangements. If I can assassinate Ye Chen on the way, I won't rebel and openly sit on the throne.
"But now, Ye Chen is safe and sound. In that case, I will personally remove you from the throne. No matter what, I want to be the Emperor of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom.." Ji Xuan coldly spoke.
