Chapter 1006 (Blood in the Imperial Palace, Royal Crisis!)
In fact, Ye Hua had a thousand ways to make the gem shine, but suddenly, he didn't want to do that because he also wanted to know if he was the same Ye Hua from before.
After waiting for two breaths, the Soul Gem in Ye Hua's hand still didn't light up, causing everyone to hold their breath.
Huang Fei, watching the situation, gradually revealed a smile. With a wave of his hand, he could have Ye Hua executed in the grand hall! In the royal court, except for Huang Li, everyone was anticipating that this cursed Soul Gem wouldn't light up.
However, within the court, most people hoped it wouldn't light up, revealing how much the previous Ye Hua had indeed died.
But the next moment, everyone would be disappointed.
The Soul Gem suddenly lit up, casting a radiant light that illuminated the entire grand hall, almost blinding.
With the Soul Gem shining, Qian Yuqing was the happiest, followed by Ye Yuanqing. Indeed, it was Big Brother! The third happiest was Huang Li. It was good that he was genuine!
However, apart from these three, there wasn't much joy on everyone else's faces, even Ye Shan felt the same. Still, he let out a sigh of relief. If it hadn't lit up just now, the Ye family would probably be finished!
Huang Fei's expression remained unchanged, but internally, he was quite displeased. 'This act was practically a public admission that Ye Hua had truly returned! It wasn't worth it! That damned Yang Yao! He should have been killed directly! He disrupted all of my plans! I guess the whole city will be shouting for this Ye Hua tomorrow, even more vigorously than today!'
At this moment, Yang Yao was a bit lost. 'It shouldn't be like this! Why did it light up? Why! General Ye couldn't possibly still be alive; it was impossible!'
Ye Hua tossed the Soul Gem to Yang Yao, and Yang Yao reflexively caught it.
"I have a question for you," Ye Hua said calmly.
The people present swallowed their saliva, clearly feeling that Ye Hua was about to confront the emperor again!
Even Huang Fei's expression slightly changed, immediately looking at Huang Yun, who, of course, knew!
Huang Li watched this happen but was helpless.
Before Ye Hua could ask his question, Huang Yun angrily shouted, "Slandering Prince Ye, death by one strike!"
Yang Yao realised and immediately knelt down, shouting, "Emperor..."
But he only spoke one word, and a blood hole appeared in the centre of his forehead. Blood flowed down drop by drop, making for a gruesome scene.
In this palace, where no one had died before, someone died today! This was an ominous sign!
Shan Junren furrowed his brows tightly, blood in the imperial palace! The royals are suddenly in danger! It meant someone in the royal family was going to die!
Everyone was in shock, all thinking the same as Shan Junren!
This was a prophecy of a crisis for the royal family! However, the person who could bring danger to the royal family was probably Prince Ye standing here.
Except for him, there was no one else!
Huang Fei looked at the expressions of the courtiers and seemed to realise it too!
His face gradually darkened; he had acted too hastily!
But there was no way around it. If Ye Hua had asked this question, then Huang Fei would have become the emperor who framed loyal subjects! If such a thing spread, he wouldn't be able to stay on the throne!
If Huang Fei had to make the choice, it would still be the same! There was nothing more to say!
This Ye Hua is clever! Really too clever!
He said just one sentence, and it actually forced this Emperor to commit murder in the hall! And now, he'll have to endure the damage from rumours!
'Well done! Ye Hua, you've made progress! You can now be my opponent!'
Yang Yao's soul flew out of his body, and Huang Yun reached out and squeezed it. That weak soul instantly dissipated. To cut the grass and not remove the roots is the worst outcome.
Huang Li swallowed his saliva. He didn't want to say anything now. He didn't kill anyone just now... This blame should not fall on him!
The scene fell silent, and nobody dared to breathe.
Ye Hua lowered his head to look at Yang Yao's corpse. He just wanted to ask if he had been drinking tonight.
'He just killed you for asking, really ruthless. Even I haven't been this ruthless. Well... it seems like I'm still a good person, at least compared to them.'
Ye Hua looked at the Emperor and whispered, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
What an ironic sentence. Huang Fei almost couldn't hold back. Too arrogant! This Ye Hua is too arrogant! Openly mocking him!
Huang Yun felt the same. Killing one's own people made people laugh out loud.
Qian Yuqing's eyes were filled with tears. Ye Hua is really handsome, even more so than before.
But Qian Yuqing couldn't help looking at the Soul Gem. When the time comes, she'll let Ye Hua catch this gem and interrogate him about whether he likes her!
Huang Fei suppressed his anger and said with a smile, "I have long felt that this person is suspicious. Sure enough, Prince Ye has exposed him. Guards, take him away!"
Ye Hua sat back in his seat and said softly, "Actually, I just wanted to ask him if he had been drinking tonight."
Huang Fei: "..."
'I don't believe your nonsense!'
But at this moment, Huang Yun's face didn't look good. After killing someone in the palace, he remembered something. Throughout the ages, the royal family had never killed anyone in the palace!
Blood in the imperial palace, a sudden crisis in the royal family!
'Damn it!'
'This Ye Hua! I will tear you apart! Rest assured!'
'I will sleep with your woman every day and let your woman give birth to children for me! And it will be an endless cycle! Let your soul see me with your woman! While you can only watch!'
Huang Fei felt he won the first half but lost miserably in the second half!
Thinking about this, Huang Fei's mood improved quite a bit. "Since we're talking about wine, let's have a hearty drink!"The courtiers stood up respectfully and shouted, "May the Emperor be blessed!"
However, before the words had just been shouted, a guard hurriedly ran in and exclaimed, "Report!!!!"
In general situations, if there's nothing major, they would wait outside. However, only critical military information would make someone rush in regardless.
Everyone present knew that this was probably an urgent situation at the border.
"What's the matter, such urgency!" Huang Fei asked in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, the scout reports that the Demon Capital has assembled a massive army of five million and will attack the border in three days!"
Five million!
Everyone was shocked! A five million-strong army! This was something the Demon Capital had never done before. Normally, their forces were in the tens of thousands, even in large-scale scenarios it would be over a hundred thousand at most. The largest was when Ye Hua annihilated a sect last time!
But this time, it was five million! Have they gone crazy?
