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.
