On the square, the body of the Grand Prince fell into a pool of blood, completely devoid of life.
Staring blankly at this scene, although the crowd was astonished, they did not make much of a fuss.
Because, since ancient times, there have been ruthless emperors and kings.
The so-called bloodline and affection, under the temptation of supreme imperial power, were all a joke.
Regarding these, Lin Hao didn't care about them at this moment, instead, his gaze turned slightly, looking towards the not-too-distant third prince.
This fellow, it seemed that from just now until now, he was sitting in his original position with a calm face.
Even when the old Yan King had left in a laissez-faire manner, as well as when the Grand Prince had been killed, he had watched with a face of indifference.
It was as if all of this had been anticipated.
Or rather.
It was all within the Third Prince's calculations!
This guy, he's not right.
Lin Hao's eyes sank slightly, and for his previous guesses, he felt more and more that this Third Prince was not as simple as he thought.
And at this moment, Yan Hongyi seemed to notice that Lin Hao was looking at him.
He suddenly raised his head and smiled faintly at Lin Hao.
The two of them locked gazes, and Lin Hao didn't dodge, directly walking over.
As for this Stygian Pavilion assassin, who suddenly walked towards the third prince, the palace guards on the high platform were all indifferent.
They showed no signs of intercepting, or coming forward to protect Yan Hongyi.
Walking closer, Lin Hao casually pulled over an exclusive seat for the prince and sat directly next to it.
Yan Hongyi had a calm face and said blandly, "You seem to be sitting in the wrong place."
Lin Hao smiled lightly and said, "It's better than some people who have a seat to sit on but are thinking about other seats."
Saying that, Lin Hao glanced at the dragon chair above him, and the implication was already very obvious.
Hearing this, Yan Hongyi's face moved slightly, and he couldn't help but take a few more glances at this Hades Pavilion assassin.
Lin Hao knew that his pair of grayish pupils were more rare, and even if he wore a mask on his face, it was still easy to expose his identity in a hurry.
Therefore, he used two pieces of dark colored glaze to specially create a pair of sunglasses.
At this time facing the third prince, under its measurement, also no cracks.
"I've seen quite a few assassins, but you, you are the most otherworldly one I've ever seen."
Yan Hongyi withdrew his gaze, a faint smile on his lips.
"You're also the one who hides the deepest among the princes I've seen."
Lin Hao smiled similarly.
"Oh? What do you mean by that?"
Yan Hongyi inquired with a smirk, not taking it seriously.
Lin Hao lightly shrugged his shoulders, "I don't know how to say it, just go with my feelings."
Upon hearing this, Yan Hongyi, however, shook his head and faintly said, "Feelings are such a thing, nebulous, I don't really like this word."
"Just like playing chess, the only way to have complete certainty is to move step by step, manipulating the direction and life and death of each piece on the board."
Saying this, Yan Hongyi glanced at Lin Hao again and said, "As for relying on feelings, I'm afraid I don't even know how I lost, don't you think so?"
Lin Hao said indisputably, "Indeed, but right now, I trust my own feelings even more."
Saying that, Lin Hao similarly turned his head, once again locking eyes with the Third Prince.
The gazes of both sides appeared calm.
However, each one's mind was as if they had already seen through each other.
Although the exchange between the two was not much, but Lin Hao was already able to be certain that this guy was definitely not some trash prince rumored in the outside world.
"Since you believe in your feelings so much, then ..."
Yan Hongyi smiled blandly, his gaze then turned to the two courtyard camps under the high platform, which were in a state of confrontation, and asked, "Do you think that in this fight today, which side has a greater chance of winning?"
Lin Hao spread his hands and said, "Does it even need to be asked, no matter if they win or lose, the ultimate victor, will not be them."
"Don't you think so, Your Honorable Third Prince."
Saying this, Lin Hao crossed his legs, as if he already knew the direction of today's chess game.
Hearing this, a trace of surprise flashed across Yan Hongyi's eyes. For Lin Hao to be able to analyze it like this, he obviously hadn't expected that his carefully arranged chess game would be seen by someone else.
And this person, was still an assassin from the Underworld Pavilion!
"I admire you, this talent of opening your eyes."
A cold aura surged in Yan Hongyi's eyes, and he said no more.
"Thank you."
Lin Hao smiled faintly, then he didn't talk anymore either, his gaze turning to the center square under the high stage.
However, he saw that at this moment, Yan Fengjun, after killing the grand prince, wore the latter's storage ring, as well as holding a sword in his hand, and immediately had a wonderful feeling of having great power in his hands.
"Fourth brother, if you don't want to suffer more, advise you to surrender obediently, perhaps second brother I can still give you a way to live."
Yan Fengjun's gaze was shadowy as he looked at Yan Chen, who was surrounded by the imperial army team, and said with a fierce smile.
"Surrender? You're not worthy yet!"
Yan Chen had a cold face, and the long sword in his hand, under the infusion of spiritual qi, bloomed with a blazing fiery red whirl of light.
"Since you want to seek death, then as you wish."
Yan Fengjun's laughter was filled with brutal intent.
Under the strong temptation of the throne, what bloodline affinities were nothing more than stumbling blocks in his eyes.
As long as these stumbling blocks were removed, the entire Great Yan Dynasty would be in his pocket.
In Yan Fengjun's mind at this time, even the scene of him wearing a dragon robe and all the officials paying homage had already surfaced.
"Kill this rebel army, all of them!"
Immediately, the smile on Yan Fengjun's face converged, and his voice was filled with biting killing intent!
"Kill!"
All of a sudden, the three neighboring armies erupted with deafening sounds of charging and killing.
"I'd like to see, who dares to make a move!!!"
However, at this moment, a thunderous bellowing sound abruptly exploded.
Immediately afterward, General Qin Xiong, that sturdy body, was seen violently leaping down from the high platform.
As he landed on the ground, only a 'bang' sound was heard.
The stone bricks under his feet, instantly cracked, several meters in circumference, showing a concave shape.
That kind of strong aura, as well as the iron blood might, instantly caused those rebels, to be instantly shocked!
Faced with this great general who existed like a god of war, no matter whether it was the city defense army, the close guards, or the security army.
On every soldier's face, a look of fear surged up.
And then, the four vice-generals of the Zhenbian Army on the Imperial City, leading many of the Qin Family's elite guards, as well as thousands of imperial guards, rushed out from the gate, following Qin Xiong.
Compared to the Second Prince's rebel army, the numbers of both sides, although the gap was vast.
However, the camp on Qin Xiong's side was full of momentum!
"Kill!"
Without any unnecessary nonsense, Qin Xiong fiercely let out a deep shout, leading his many men, like a sharp sword, ruthlessly plunging into the middle of that densely packed rebel army.
"Kill--!"
When Qin Yu saw his old man joining the battle, he too was instantly enflamed with a strong will to fight.
At that moment, he similarly led the Imperial Forest Army and began to bravely kill the enemy.
And while the battle was being fought, one of the vice generals, took out an iron cylinder and directly pulled off the rope string.
Puff!
In the next split second, a red firelight shot up violently.
Immediately, it exploded high in the air, blossoming into a brilliant firework signal.
Boom--!
High in the sky under the sunlight, the fireworks blossomed as they did, and the brilliant light remained dazzling.
And at this moment, the Zhenbian Army stationed outside the city effect, a loud and clear sound of horns was abruptly heard.
"All listen to the order, attack the city!"
The vice general leading the army, looking at the fireworks signaling over the Imperial Capital in the distance, his dark face suddenly surged with a touch of fury.
At one time, the 100,000 Zhenbian Army was like a division of tigers and wolves, marching towards the Imperial Capital at a fiery speed.
The various battle-armored vehicles that were used to attack the city also resounded with heart-pounding rumbles as they quickly pushed on.
It was not difficult to see that the Zhenbian Army that Qin Xiong had brought with him to the capital this time was definitely equipped with superb combat power.
