Things have reached this point; there’s no turning back. Only by meeting strength with strength is there a glimmer of hope!

Qin Tian decided to take on the Crown Prince!

Rumbling!

But just at this moment, from outside the gate of the Murong Mansion, a thunderous sound continued to reverberate, causing the entire courtyard to feel like an earthquake.

Someone flew out to take a look and immediately shouted, ”It’s not good, a large army is approaching us, already surrounding the Murong Family!”

”There are so many of them, my god, there must be over ten thousand people!”

”That... that is... that’s the Imperial Army!”

Someone recognized the banners and was instantly alarmed.

Everyone knew that within the Imperial Palace, the most powerful fighting force was naturally the experts of the Soul Suppressing Hall, followed by the Tianyuan Guard, and then the Forbidden Army.

The first two were limited in number, but the Forbidden Army was large and had developed into tens of thousands over the years!

At this moment, even the Forbidden Army from the palace has been stirred? What kind of person has come?

Could it be that the Ice Emperor has personally come out?

Upon hearing that the Murong Family was surrounded by the Forbidden Army, the first thought everyone had was of the Ice Emperor.

After all, for more than ten thousand forbidden soldiers to suddenly mobilize in the Imperial City, besides the Ice Emperor, few in the city would have such power.

”Everyone, halt!”

While everyone was curious, a voice rang out, and then everyone saw the Fourth Prince quickly walking over from the main entrance of the Murong Mansion, his face stern.

”Fourth Lord?”

Seeing the Fourth Prince appear, everyone was taken aback.

Especially the Ninth Prince and the Crown Prince, who exchanged glances, finding it incredulous that the Fourth Prince could have the qualification and audacity to mobilize over ten thousand forbidden soldiers.

”Old Four, what kind of mischief are you up to!”

The Crown Prince, who had always dismissed the Fourth Prince, frowned upon seeing him and said, ”Where did you mobilize these forbidden soldiers from? Do you know that unauthorized mobilization of the Forbidden Army is a dead end!”

The Fourth Prince walked over with an imposing manner, directly stepping into the focal point of all attention, his face solemn, and said, ”In the Imperial City, under the Emperor’s feet, you dare to erupt in such a large-scale fight, do you not regard the laws of the Tianyuan Dynasty at all?”

His expression was stern, looking neither at the Ninth Prince nor the Crown Prince, and not at Qin Tian either, as he put on an air of righteousness.

No one spoke, and the Ninth Prince took a deep breath, turning to the Crown Prince and said, ”Brother, they say the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Today, who is the oriole? It’s hard to say, hmm... I’ve walked to this point, and I resign myself to fate! However, brother, are you also willing to, like me, become insignificant, watching those we once despised completely control the future of the Tianyuan Dynasty?”

The Ninth Prince’s words carried a tone of ridicule.

However, he seemed to have reached a clear understanding now.

In the Tianyuan Dynasty, where strength was paramount, the Ninth Prince’s Cultivation Immortality Talent could only be considered at an initial genius level, and his original cultivation was now abolished by Qin Tian, leaving him with no competitiveness in an instant!

The Ice Emperor would never pass the throne to someone without cultivation, as that would mean handing over the kingdom to others!

Therefore, the Ninth Prince felt thoroughly disheartened and indifferent to everything.

Seeing the Crown Prince’s astonished and angry demeanor, he was instead delighted: ”We’ve fought for so many years... ha, who would’ve thought, we are both mantises.”

The Ninth Prince spoke, and the Crown Prince’s cheeks twitched violently.

He didn’t respond to the Ninth Prince but instead turned his gaze to the Fourth Prince, gritting his teeth: ”Old Four, I’ll handle things here, so take the Forbidden Army away! You’re breaking the law by mobilizing the army without permission, and I might not report this to father if you quickly take them back, hurry!”

The Fourth Prince also didn’t respond to the Crown Prince, instead, the Ninth Prince continued with his ridicule: ”My Crown Prince brother, are you still dreaming? Can’t you see, Old Four brought all these people specifically for us?”

”Specifically for us?”

The Crown Prince sneered, ”So what if they came? Here, I call the shots! I am the Crown Prince!”

As he spoke, he looked around and shouted to the Forbidden Army, ”I am the Crown Prince, all of you step back! Retreat out of the courtyard!”

However, none of the soldiers moved.

Publicly disregarded, the Crown Prince couldn’t have been more embarrassed, stepping right in front of the Fourth Prince, angrily saying, ”Old Four, what do you intend to do? Hm? Are you opposing me? Do you know what the consequences are!”

”Brother, I’m not opposing you; I just received reports of intense fighting here and came to see for myself.”

Looking at the Crown Prince, the Fourth Prince said, ”Brother, don’t forget, I also hold the position of Inspector of the Imperial City, and part of my duties is to maintain order in the city.”

The Fourth Prince’s face was very calm, even when facing the furious Crown Prince, he seemed to control his temper well.

”Everyone here, take them all away.”

The Fourth Prince, expressionless, said casually, and the entire Forbidden Army began to move.

”Who dares!”

The Crown Prince was taken aback, shouting loudly.

Take them all away... that was his command just now, now, is the Fourth Prince really the oriole?

On what basis does he become the oriole? What right does he have!

Having never taken the Fourth Prince seriously, the Crown Prince felt a huge contrast seeing the Fourth Prince so brazen, and said angrily, ”These are my people, and I’ll see who dares to move them! Not only should my people remain untouched, but also Qin Tian and the several Family Heads of the Murong Family shall not be moved! They killed Su Xinlie and disabled Old Nine’s martial arts. I intend to take them to the Imperial Palace for an audience with father!”

”No need, brother, I’ll handle this matter.”

The Fourth Prince responded faintly.

”You’ll handle it? Ha, with what?” The Crown Prince moved closer to the Fourth Prince, less than a meter away.

The Fourth Prince gave a slight smile and said, ”Yes, with me.”

”Bringing trouble upon yourself! You’re asking for it!”

At such close quarters, seeing the Fourth Prince, who used to be submissive to him, now with a completely disregarding expression, the infuriated Crown Prince struck out, aiming a palm at the Fourth Prince’s chest!

He thought that the Fourth Prince had low cultivation; a few years back, it was reportedly at the Primordial Pill stage, and even if his strength had increased significantly, he couldn’t withstand the power of his palm.

However, his unexpected move, so fierce at such close range, was actually caught by the Fourth Prince!

The Fourth Prince effortlessly extended his hand and caught the Crown Prince’s palm!

Wasn’t it said that the Fourth Prince’s cultivation was as good as gone? How could this be!

The Ninth Prince and the Crown Prince were dumbfounded.

”He, actually hid this well... hm, very patient over these years!”

The Ninth Prince, sensing the mighty aura emanating from the Fourth Prince, closed his eyes slightly and, upon realizing something, inhaled sharply, exclaiming in shock:

”Could it be that all these years, both the Crown Prince and I were merely open pawns in his eyes?”
