Chapter 950 I Wanted You to Be the King!

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

“Ah…”

Zhangsun Chengdu let out a cry of pain and fell to the ground with a plop. He looked around and angrily roared, “Who is it? Come out and fight with me if you have the ability.”

Seeing that he was seriously injured, Si Baokun ordered again, “Shoot the arrows.”

All at once, countless arrows were shot. “Woosh…”

Although Zhangsun Chengdu had been injured, his body-protecting Genuine Qi was still there. He was not afraid of the God-killing Arrows, but of the crisis hidden in the dark.

As the saying goes, what you fear the most would come true. When he was using his body-protecting Genuine Qi to defend himself against the God-killing Arrows, another bang rang out again.

A golden bullet came to him in an instant and broke through his body-protecting Genuine Qi. This bullet penetrated his brain.

With a bang, the powerful bullet from the anti-material rifle directly exploded inside Zhangsun Chengdu’s head.

The poor Imperial Preceptor of Tortoise Kingdom, a vaunted master at the stage of the Grand Completion Realm, had yet to find the location of his enemy even in death.

After killing Zhangsun Chengdu with three successive shots, Qin Haodong finally breathed a sigh of relief. In any case, he would not let his enemy at the stage of the Grand Completion Realm live. Otherwise, once the enemy knew of his position, the consequence would be unimaginable.

Zhao Xianlong’s tense nerves also relaxed. After killing such a powerful enemy, Tortoise Kingdom would have nothing to worry about in the future.

He sent people to dispose of Zhangsun Chengdu’s corpse. Then, he ordered Shangguan Qiong to capture Zhao Yu and bring him back to the palace.

After being locked up in the Cold Palace, Wu Yuenian’s heart was filled with dreariness and fear as she looked at the surrounding ice-cold palace walls. However, there was still a glimmer of hope in her heart. That was Zhangsun Chengdu.

She hoped that this man, known as the first master of Tortoise Kingdom, could save her from this place. It would be best if he could kill Zhao Xianlong and directly let his son be the King.

And that Qin Haodong. Once he fell into her hands one day, she would cut him into pieces and grind his bones to ashes!

The person she hated the most now was none other than Qin Haodong.

If this young man hadn’t suddenly appeared, her plan would have gone well. Zhao Xingyue wouldn’t have suddenly changed. Zhao Xianlong wouldn’t have been able to remove the maggot hidden in his bone marrow, discovered her secret, and upgrade his cultivation to the stage of the Grand Completion Realm.

In short, it was all Qin Haodong’s fault that she ended up like this.

Just as she was gnashing her teeth with hatred, the door of the palace opened. A ray of light shot in from the outside.

“Did my brother come to pick me up?”

Wu Yuenian jumped up from the ground and rushed to the door. However, she didn’t see Zhangsun Chengdu’s shadow. Instead, Qin Haodong, Zhao Xianlong, and Zhao Xingyue came in from the outside.

“Why are you guys here?”

Zhao Xianlong sneered. “What? Are you disappointed? You think Zhangsun Chengdu can come here to save you?”

Wu Yuenian calmed herself down and said, “Let me tell you. Don’t attack my son and me. Otherwise, he won’t let you off.”

Zhao Xianlong said, “You think too much. What can a dead man do to us?”

Astonishment flashed across Wu Yuenian’s face. She then cried out, “What? That’s impossible! My brother is the first master! You can’t kill him!”

“You don’t believe what I said, do you? Then, find someone you believe in to tell you.”

After Zhao Xianlong finished speaking, he waved his hand. Next, Shangguan Qiong brought Zhao Yu in from the outside.

As soon as he entered the door, he shouted to Wu Yuenian, “Mother, my father is crazy. He not only killed the Imperial Preceptor but also captured me. Please help me!”

Hearing this, Wu Yuenian’s entire body shook. She grabbed Zhao Yu’s collar and shouted, “What did you say? Zhangsun Chengdu is really dead?”

Although Zhao Yu knew that Zhangsun Chengdu was their trusted aide, he did not know that he was his biological father. He said, “Yes, he died in a strange way. His head exploded.”

After confirming that her last backer had already been killed, Wu Yuenian fell onto the ground with a plop with despair in her eyes.

Zhao Xianlong said, “Well, you don’t have any hope now, do you?”

Wu Yuenian came back to her senses. She knelt in front of Zhao Xianlong and begged. “Your Majesty, I was fooled for a moment. Please let me go this time!”

Zhao Xingyue shouted angrily, “You vicious woman! You are begging for mercy now? You killed my mother. You killed my brothers and sister. You must die today!”

Zhao Yu was just a playboy in daily life. He knew nothing about what Wu Yuenian and Zhangsun Chengdu had done. Seeing everything in front of him, he stood there in a daze and didn’t know what had happened.

After seeing that there was no hope of pleading, a crazy look flashed in Wu Yuenian’s eyes. She fiercely rushed to Qin Haodong and said, “Son of a bitch, it’s all your fault!”

However, as soon as she rushed over, he kicked her away and she slammed into the wall behind her. Then, she fell to the ground and vomited blood.

Qin Haodong would never show mercy to such a vicious woman. If it weren’t for the sake of letting Zhao Xingyue take revenge, he would have killed her with one kick.

“Mother!”

Zhao Yu hurriedly ran over to help Wu Yuenian up. He then turned back and angrily shouted, “Zhao Xingyue, look at the bad man you’ve found. He actually dared to hit my mother.”

Zhao Xingyue glanced at him with disgust. “You bastard, shut up!”

His sister, who had always been weak-spirited, dared to talk to him like that. Zhao Yu shouted at Zhao Xianlong, “Didn’t you hear that? This bitch dares to call me a bastard. I am your only son. I will succeed to the throne in the future…”

Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Xianlong slapped him in the face. “You are really a bastard. How dare you talk to my daughter like this?”

Although Zhao Xianlong did not use his Genuine Qi, Zhao Yu was hit and spun a few times on the ground before falling beside Wu Yuenian with a thud.

When he came to his senses, he covered his swollen cheek and said, “Father, are you crazy? I’m your only son. Why did you slap me?”

Zhao Xianlong said with a grim look, “Whose son are you? Ask this bitch.”

Zhao Yu tugged Wu Yuenian and asked, “Mother, what’s the matter? Quickly tell my father that I’m his son. I will succeed to the throne in the future.”

Sorrow and despair flashed across Wu Yuenian’s face. “Son, don’t dream of ascending to the throne. Your father isn’t this person in front of you. Zhangsun Chengdu was your father.”

“Impossible! It’s not like that. I want to be the King. I don’t want Zhangsun Chengdu to be my father…”

Zhao Yu had dreamed of sitting on the throne for many years. When he heard the news, he went crazy. He turned around and knelt down in front of Zhao Xianlong. He hugged Zhao Xianlong’s legs and cried, “Father, I am your son.

“Please let me be your son. You have no other son except me.”

Disgust flashed in Zhao Xianlong’s eyes. He raised his leg to kick him away again. “Bastard, get out of my way. Although I don’t have a son, I still have a daughter who can succeed to the throne.”

Qin Haodong took two steps forward and squatted down. He looked at Zhao Yu and said, “Do you still remember our bet? I bet you won’t be able to sit on the throne. What do you think? Are you convinced now?”

“I am not convinced. I am not convinced. I am the only son of my father. I am the future King. I guarantee that none of you will be able to seize my throne…”

Zhao Yu screamed madly and then roared with laughter. “I am the King! I am now the King of Tortoise Kingdom! No one can seize my throne! No one can stop me!”

Looking at his crazy look, Qin Haodong shook his head. Desire was really a terrible thing that could directly drive people crazy.

Looking at her son’s appearance, Wu Yuenian’s expression was complicated. There was heartache, remorse, helplessness, and anger in her eyes. She said to Zhao Xianlong, “For the sake of the conjugal relations between you and me, can you spare my son’s life?”

Zhao Xianlong’s face flashed with an angry look. “We were also husband and wife back then. Did you spare my sons’ lives?

“You killed my two sons and one daughter. Now, you have the nerve to beg me to spare your son’s life. I don’t know how you dare to even say it!”

After that, he waved to Shangguan Qiong, who was beside him. “Take Zhao Yu out and directly execute him.”

As the ruler of a kingdom, he had never been a benevolent person. He also knew the principle of cutting the weeds and digging up the roots. Since he had killed Zhangsun Chengdu, he could not leave Zhangsun Chengdu’s son in the world.

Shangguan Qiong agreed and led two guards forward to drag Zhao Yu away.

“Let me go! What are you doing? I am the King of Tortoise Kingdom! You slaves have such nerves! Believe it or not, I will exterminate your nine clans…”

Zhao Yu cursed non-stop. Suddenly, he stopped. Clearly, his head had been lopped off.

Pain flashed across Wu Yuenian’s face after she knew that her son had been killed.

Zhao Xingyue stepped forward with a long sword and said, “You vicious woman. You killed my mother and my siblings. Now, you have gotten the taste of separation. It’s time to send you to hell.”

With that, she thrust her long sword forward and pierced Wu Yuenian’s chest.

A tumor hidden in the Tortoise Palace for the past twenty years had been thoroughly eradicated.

This matter was done in secret. The next day, Zhao Xianlong told the world that Zhangsun Chengdu, the Imperial Preceptor, colluded with the Ghost King Sect to rebel and was killed on the spot.

Wu Yuenian and Prince Zhao Yu had fallen seriously ill and unfortunately died.

The next night, everything was settled. Zhao Xianlong held a banquet in the palace to entertain Qin Haodong. Zhao Xingyue accompanied them.

After eating and drinking for a while, Zhao Xianlong said, “Haodong, let me propose a toast to you. Thank you for helping me kill Zhangsun Chengdu and getting rid of the tumor Wu Yuenian. You have made a great contribution to Tortoise Kingdom.”

“You’re very welcome, Your Majesty,” Qin Haodong said politely and drank up the glass of wine in front of him.

Putting down the glass, Zhao Xianlong asked, “I didn’t understand one thing. How did you kill Zhangsun Chengdu?”

This had always been the question in his heart. Zhangsun Chengdu was a master at the stage of the Grand Completion Realm. Ordinary knives and swords could not hurt him at all. He didn’t know how Zhangsun Chengdu was injured by Qin Haodong in succession. He didn’t know how Qin Haodong finally managed to blow up Zhangsun Chengdu’s head.

Qin Haodong said, “In fact, it’s nothing. My master gave me a magic treasure before he left. This thing is not very useful for direct confrontation. It is only suitable for long-range assassination.

“If I had to directly confront the old culprit Zhangsun Chengdu, I would have died instead. ”

He was telling the truth. If Zhao Xianlong hadn’t distracted Zhangsun Chengdu’s attention and there weren’t so many God-killing Arrows from the archers that posed a threat to Zhangsun Chengdu, it would have been impossible for him to kill Zhangsun Chengdu by relying only on the anti-material rifle.

Therefore, it was completely due to favorable climatic, geographical, and human conditions that he could kill Zhangsun Chengdu.

Zhao Xianlong nodded. He knew that everyone had their own secrets, so he did not ask any more questions.

He said again, “Haodong, I only have Xingyue left now. She is my only child. I want to pass on the throne to her.

“It’s a pity that this girl is not mature. I want you to be the King of Tortoise Kingdom. What do you think?”
