Wang Chong stood tall on the raised platform, heedless of all the imperial servitors and Dragon Guards.
Since his plot was already exposed and Third Son Xuan had already admitted his identity, Wang Chong naturally had no need to keep hiding everything.
What did imperial authority matter?
What did fame or status matter?
Wang Chong had never cared about such things. He respected imperial authority because imperial authority shared the same goal, because they sought to bring blessings to the people of the land and protect the country.
But an unbridled wielder of imperial authority like Third Son Xuan who betrayed the mission upon ascending the throne was not worth his respect.
Fame! Fortune! Did Third Son Xuan really think such things could hold him?

You! You! You!

Down below, Third Son Xuan was trembling in rage, smoke practically rushing out of his pores. He was the Emperor, the rightful heir to the House of Li!
Everyone beneath the Emperor was an ant, and as a Prince, he had learned that the sovereign’s orders were as immovable as mountains, that the sovereign did not speak lightly, that the Emperor could do what he pleased. But now, some puny subject had dared to defy him, babbling nonsense. Utterly absurd!

Bastard! You scoundrel, daring to act so rebelliously before Us! Do you really think I can’t kill you?

For your defiance and disrespect, We will announce your crimes! For your Wang Clan’s crime of betrayal and treason, not just you, but every member of your clan must die!

Third Son Xuan trembled, his face ashen and his expression savage. He had already completely lost himself to rage.
The fact that the previous Emperor had reprimanded him and stripped him of his right of succession had always been his deepest scar, his greatest taboo. But Wang Chong had torn open this scar right in front of him, completely stimulating his killing intent!

Come! Execute this traitor!

The Sage Emperor’s voice thundered through the palace and across the capital.
At this moment, the entire capital trembled, and on the streets and in the restaurants and taverns, the people began to look in the direction of the palace.
Not far from the palace gate, King Song and Zhangchou Jianqiong trembled and exchanged shocked glances before turning to the Imperial Palace in pale-faced fright.
Inside the palace, as Third Son Xuan made his ruthless declaration, the tension in the hall soared.
Even Wang Chong couldn’t help but pale.
Even if Third Son Xuan was incompetent and incapable, he was still nominally the Emperor of the Great Tang!
A sovereign did not speak lightly!
No matter what happened after this, Wang Chong and the entire Wang Clan would be forced into an extremely perilous situation!
The sovereign was forever the sovereign, possessing supreme authority. Wang Chong could not change anything about this.
If he failed to end today’s matter with a good result, the Great Tang might cease to have a King of Foreign Lands!

Kill!

At this moment, all the Dragon Guards and servitors unleashed torrents of Stellar Energy.
In the face of this attack, Wang Chong had no chance of survival.

Nightmare Beast, do it!

In this precarious situation, in the face of unprecedented danger, Wang Chong suddenly bellowed, his face grave.
Roooar!
As Wang Chong spoke, an inhuman roar resounded in everyone’s minds.
Bang!
In the blink of an eye, an unprecedented mental storm cast the entire world into shadow, erupting from Wang Chong’s bosom and engulfing the entire hall!
After experiencing the war of the northwest and absorbing the Psychic Energy of the Arab High Priest, Wang Chong now had at least ten times the Psychic Energy of a Subtle realm expert.
This vast Psychic Energy was enough to allow Wang Chong to stand tall over the vast majority of experts in this world.
But this sort of Psychic Energy compared to the Nightmare Beast was like a firefly compared to the moon!
In the war of the northwest, the Nightmare Beast had devoured the Psychic Energy of at least seven hundred thousand soldiers, and in the following battles, it had consumed even more. It had accumulated a reserve of Psychic Energy that was far beyond what anyone could imagine.
Wang Chong had dared to ‘drink’ the poisoned wine precisely because of the Nightmare Beast’s strength.
Wang Chong had never drunk the poisoned wine. Everything, including the image of him standing there, had all been an illusion.
The moment when everyone was focused on Wang Chong gave the Nightmare Beast the perfect chance!
The vast contrast in Psychic Energy, as large as the heavens and earth, allowed the Nightmare Beast to move like a fish through water within the chaotic confines of Taiji Palace.
Boom!
As the Nightmare Beast exerted its full power, invisible Psychic Energy transformed into tangible strings. While those in the hall tried to resist, they were like ants trying to shake a tree, absolutely no match.
The Nightmare Beast’s mark had already been branded into their minds. How could they resist?
In the blink of an eye, a dark shadow descended.

Ah!

As ruthless shouts filled the air, more than half of the attacks aimed at Wang Chong suddenly changed directions and struck at other targets.
Even the supreme Dragon Guards were thrown into disarray by this sudden assault.

Bastard!

Third Son Xuan erupted in rage.
Roooar!
As everyone else was being controlled by the Nightmare Beast, he lunged at Wang Chong.
Roooar!
The fabric of space trembled as the roar of a dragon erupted from his body.
Wang Chong could see a golden light exploding from Third Son Xuan, this majestic Stellar Energy transforming into a giant golden dragon.
This giant dragon empowered Third Son Xuan, making him seem awesome and divine.
The World-Shaking Emperor Dragon Fist!
Even though Third Son Xuan was incompetent and incapable, he was still a member of the imperial household and had received its traditional education. Even if he couldn’t reach the heaven-shaking levels of the Sage Emperor, Third Son Xuan was no weakling.

Die!

Third Son Xuan thrust out his palm, unleashing a vast torrent of Stellar Energy at Wang Chong.
Wang Chong couldn’t help but widen his eyes, an intense sense of danger in his heart.
Third Son Xuan undoubtedly could not compare to the Sage Emperor when it came to fighting experience and knowledge of martial arts, but that body was still the Sage Emperor’s and brimming with his immense power.
It was like a three-year-old child with a gun. He might not have had any strength or any sense of aim, but as long as the gun was in his hands, he presented a major threat.
Third Son Xuan was in a very similar situation.

Origin Immortal Art!

Wang Chong’s eyes chilled as he pushed the Origin Immortal Art to its limit. With a great boom, a dazzling golden pavilion manifested behind Wang Chong, circled by transcendent energy.
Rumble!
But unlike before, Wang Chong’s Origin Immortal Art was not able to completely absorb this surging wave of energy. Upon first contact with this destructive power, the Trayastrimsa Heaven was annihilated.
The Sage Emperor’s Stellar Energy was simply too domineering, its quality far above Wang Chong’s.
As that Stellar Energy surged in, Wang Chong felt as if the energy was burning, and the Origin Immortal Art could barely handle it.
This was the first time Wang Chong had found an energy that was difficult for the Origin Immortal Art to absorb.
Buzz!
Wang Chong reacted very quickly. The moment the Trayastrimsa Heaven crumbled, he used the Shadow Fiend Art and a small opening created by the collision of Stellar Energy to extricate himself.
At this moment, the gap in combat experience between Third Son Xuan and Wang Chong became evident.
If this were the real Sage Emperor, Wang Chong would have had no chance, but Third Son Xuan and his immense strength had failed to seize this opportunity to deal Wang Chong a fatal blow.
But even so, the Sage Emperor’s terrifying power dealt Wang Chong a major shock.
Boom!
Wang Chong had moved a hundred-some feet, but he was still caught by the edge of the Stellar Energy explosion and was slammed into the walls of Taiji Palace.
Third Son Xuan was nothing to talk about, but the strength in his body was still something Wang Chong could not match.
One strike in these narrow confines was still enough to successfully injure Wang Chong.
Not only that, the moment Wang Chong was injured, the fighting in the hall also lessened.
Although they were still under the control of the Nightmare Beast, the more strong-willed Dragon Guards and servitors were able to come to their senses and briefly break free of the Nightmare Beast’s influence.

Kill!

Their eyes coldly locked onto the nearby Wang Chong. No matter who this person was, even the revered King of Foreign Lands, if the Sage Emperor gave the order, they would kill without hesitation.
The Dragon Guards and servitors existed to obey.
Rumble!
And this wasn’t all. As Wang Chong and Third Son Xuan clashed, a thunderous stampede of footsteps began to converge on the hall.
Countless Golden Guards and Imperial Army soldiers were arriving, attracted by Third Son Xuan’s shout, encircling the palace. If one could look from above, one would discover that these countless soldiers of the palace had tightly surrounded Taiji Palace.
As he sensed more and more soldiers gathering outside, Wang Chong’s heart sank and his face paled.
