Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 2844: Chapter 2845: Forcing the Throne

However, Ye Luo still couldn’t believe that the King of Huainan, as the ruler of the third force, could be swayed by the curse just like that.

”You’re right. I won’t truly perish. A sliver of Die Er’s divine soul still exists, so that curse cannot completely destroy me. However, this physical body of mine cannot be preserved! I can only survive in another form, wandering the world with Die Er!”

Thinking of this, he showed a gentle expression.

Ye Luo sighed. Regardless, in this world, the King of Huainan no longer exists, so whether he lives or dies, what difference does it make?

”But I’m unwilling. I’ve spent my life on the battlefield, and now those enemies trample over me!” he suddenly roared.

”How long does Your Highness need!” Ye Luo suddenly looked up and asked.

The King of Huainan was silent for a while, seemingly contemplating, then suddenly looked up, ”A year is enough!”

Ye Luo laughed, ”As expected, Your Highness is a hero of the ages. In just a year, you can clear away the enemies!”

The King of Huainan merely squinted at Ye Luo, clearly not wanting to hear his words of praise.

”Two years! At least two years!” Ye Luo suddenly said.

”Two years?” The aura of the King of Huainan immediately intensified, ”If it’s two years, what fear is there even for the Assassin Alliance!”

At this moment, he once again became that unparalleled king!

In the following days, several major events occurred in the Royal Capital.

The first was the introduction of a new regulation in the Royal Capital. Any cultivator who harms mortals, regardless of their background, will face severe punishment and, in serious cases, death, even affecting their sect!

Originally, this regulation didn’t attract much attention, as it concerned only mortals. Perhaps it was just a facade to prevent mortal uprisings. However, the regulation received the approval of the King of Huainan and many members of the nobility, which changed its significance.

Gradually, many cultivators began to avoid mortals, and the order in the Royal Capital improved significantly.

Another event was the King of Huainan starting to receive guests, granting audiences to high-level figures from powerful factions that were renowned in their regions.

Additionally, even the Demon Race sent an emissary, something unprecedented. The King of Huainan and the Demon Race were supposed to be mortal enemies, yet the actions of the Demon Race now were too abnormal!

All of this indicated that this feast was anything but ordinary.

Behind the Royal Mansion of Huainan was a small complex of buildings, yet these palaces were extraordinarily lavish, rivaling the Royal Mansion in grandeur.

This was naturally the residence of the Third Prince.

At this moment, the Third Prince was seated on the dragon chair in the great hall, and that elder sat beside him, indicating the prince’s esteem for him.

”Teacher, what exactly is Father thinking? Isn’t this clearly a way to endanger himself?” the Third Prince asked, furrowing his brow.

”By removing all protection, does he think the members of the Assassin Alliance are fools? Daring to meet guests in his true form, does he really think he can escape unharmed? And what’s up with that new regulation? This could incite many to have second thoughts! And as for the Demon Race, I can’t believe they’re here to celebrate a birthday!” the Third Prince continued.

”These indeed are very unusual. According to the nature of Your Highness, such actions are impossible, yet these things are happening now, suggesting something must have changed on His Highness’s side!” the elder said in a deep voice.

The Third Prince immediately stood up, ”Teacher, you mean to say!”

The elder nodded slightly!

”Indeed, it must be so!” the Third Prince frowned, sitting back down, ”If that’s the case, he’s definitely in a hurry to elevate Nameless, but this is also our opportunity. That Nameless has no right to touch the throne, he’s merely a bumpkin!”

”Teacher, I’m relying on you for everything!” the Third Prince said sternly.

”Third Prince, I will do my utmost!” The elder immediately stood up, bowed deeply to the Third Prince, and then walked out.

That day, undercurrents were surging in the Royal City.

Yet Nameless and Ye Luo seemed indifferent, sitting on meditation mats.

”Are you really planning to do nothing?” Ye Luo opened his eyes, looking at Nameless.

”Why should I prepare? You are my teacher, aren’t you in charge of everything?” Nameless replied nonchalantly.

Hearing this, Ye Luo even felt an urge to strangle him. Luckily, Qin Se walked in, causing Ye Luo to let it go.

”How are things outside?” Ye Luo asked.

Qin Se looked very serious and shook her head slowly, ”The situation is urgent. Many young masters and generals are gathered at the Third and Twelfth Prince’s mansions. Their intentions are obvious!”

”Damn!” Nameless suddenly widened his eyes, ”They dare to be so bold, aren’t they afraid Father will punish them?”

Hearing this, Qin Se helplessly glanced at Nameless, an expression of disappointment flashing in her eyes.

Ye Luo was also somewhat helpless. Nameless indeed lagged far behind Qin Se in matters of politics.

The reason they do this is essentially to stage a coup, indicating they already know the King of Huainan doesn’t have long.

”It seems the chaos in the Royal City is inevitable. Teacher, what should we do!” Qin Se asked.

”Do everything according to your own plan!” Ye Luo sighed.

Qin Se fell silent for a moment, ”Teacher, after all, I’m just a woman. This kind of thing is beyond my reach! Besides, I don’t have any real power!”

Ye Luo glanced at her, ”What’s wrong with being a woman? Who said a woman can’t be a king!”

At this, both Qin Se and Nameless widened their eyes, staring at him.

This statement was indeed rebellious.

But Ye Luo was completely unconcerned.

”A king is a king because of courage, actions, and the ability to provide a home and career for more people. What does that have to do with gender?” Ye Luo said slowly, ”Rules are made by people. When your power is strong enough, when your ability conquers the world, then you can change the rules! Rules are written for the strong!”

With each word Ye Luo spoke, Qin Se’s eyes brightened, until she finally trembled with excitement.

”Teacher, is all this true?” she finally asked, trembling.

Obviously, Ye Luo’s words had a profound impact on her.

”Indeed, in other worlds, women as kings are not uncommon. It’s nothing extraordinary!” Ye Luo affirmed.

At this, Qin Se asked no more, her gaze becoming resolute.

However, Ye Luo didn’t know what effect these words would have on her, or what consequences they would bring to this third force!

”Teacher, I understand now. I will go prepare!”

With that, she walked out.
