Chapter 1886

He was an extremely sharp person. The explosion that forced him to revert to his original form didn't seem to be an accident.

He looked at Old Crow cautiously. When he saw the old man suddenly disappear, his pupils shrank and he yelled, "Run!"

With that, he immediately fled again, completely ignoring Wu Lie this time!

He was very clear about Gu Chen's instructions. If Wu Lie could be protected, then protect him. But if he encountered an extremely dangerous situation, then his own safety was the priority!

Although Mourning Yan's attack was terrifying, he believed that he still had a chance to escape with Wu Lie.

But now, the feeling Old Crow gave him was far more dangerous than Mourning Yan. His intuition told him that if he stayed, he would undoubtedly die!

* Puff! *

The Clay Bodhisattva instantly fled. Wu Lie didn't even have time to react. When Old Crow's figure suddenly reappeared in front of him, he felt a heart-wrenching pain.

He lowered his head, only to see a black claw emitting a scarlet-gold glow piercing through his body. Fresh blood continuously flowed from his body as his life force rapidly faded …

"Wh … why?"

His eyes widened, unable to believe what had just happened.

This old Patriarch before him had watched him and Ya Huan grow up together, so how could he bear to kill him?

"I'm sorry, Your Highness."

Old Crow sighed.

"This is Father's will? He still chose Yan Yang in the end? "

Wu Lie quickly understood. Old Crow had always been loyal, and the only person who could make him want to kill him was his father, the Emperor.

A bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. When Father had suggested this test, he'd felt that he was biased towards Yan Yang. He never thought that the result would be true. In order to help Yan Yang successfully ascend the throne, Father had actually chosen to kill him!

"Your Highness, please don't blame His Majesty. His Majesty was forced to do this. If you want to blame someone, blame yourselves.

"You and the Crown Prince have been fighting for the throne for years. It's fine that you've turned Great Cheng into a mess. His Majesty can tolerate that. However, you've colluded with outsiders and even been used by them. This has violated His Majesty's taboo.

"Don't worry. This old servant will not only send you on your way, but also the Crown Prince. I hope that this old servant's words will allow you to leave without regrets."

Old Crow explained sincerely. Wu Lie's eyes flashed with understanding as he felt incomparable regret.

"The heart of a monarch is hard to fathom …"

Large amounts of blood flowed out of his mouth, and after he finished his last sentence, his life force completely dissipated!

The old crow sighed heavily again. It pulled its sharp claws out of Wu Lie's chest and glanced in the direction the Clay Buddha had escaped.

"Hmph, reckless idiots. How dare they abandon Prince Wu Lie and escape by themselves without hesitation. His Majesty was right. These people clearly want to destroy Great Cheng. How can they be loyal and courageous?"

"Do you think you can escape? From the moment you stepped into the Ancestral Land, you were destined to be buried with the two princes. "

The old crow murmured. Just as it was about to chase after the Clay Bodhisattva, a commotion came from the horizon.

Ming Shou controlled the Corpse Kun, which had the advantage of air space, and finally caught up with them.

But they didn't expect to see Old Crow personally kill Wu Lie the moment they arrived!

"Wu Lie is dead? Great, hahaha! "

The Flaming Sun Crown Prince was overjoyed. When he saw that it was Old Crow who helped him, he was even more excited. He thought that his father had finally made up his mind to let him inherit the throne.

Ming Shou, on the other hand, was much more sensitive. Seeing that Old Crow had noticed their arrival and was looking at him with hidden killing intent, Ming Shou's heart shuddered.

Whoosh!

He immediately ordered the Corpse Kun to turn around and escape!

Old Crow followed closely behind and flew into the sky. A terrifying aura rippled from his body!

"The rumors are true. The old leader of the Golden Crow Tribe has already reached the peak of the seventh level. He has the ability to break through to the Sage Realm. However, in order to protect Emperor Sheng, he has been suppressing his breakthrough."

"He is a Lesser Sage. I am definitely no match for him! Emperor Sheng is cruel and merciless. He didn't even let his two sons go! "

Ming Shou guessed the truth of the matter in a very short time. The so-called test was just a carefully designed trap. Emperor Sheng wanted to kill all of them in one fell swoop!

Emperor Sheng was getting old and the people of Qiankun Group thought that he was no longer ambitious. They had underestimated him!

"What's going on? Father wants to kill me as well? "

The Flaming Sun Crown Prince wasn't stupid. When he felt the strong killing intent coming from behind him, his face turned pale.

If the Ancestral Land was a carefully designed trap, then with his father's personality, he would definitely ensure that nothing went wrong.

Old Crow was a guarantee. Apart from that, his father would definitely have a backup plan.

In other words, his dream of becoming the Emperor had been shattered. Even if he could leave the Ancestral Land alive, his father would never allow him to become the Emperor of Great Cheng!

"Even a vicious tiger will not eat its cubs! Father, you are so cruel! "

The Flaming Sun Crown Prince's heart was filled with hatred and fear. Under such circumstances, would he be able to escape this calamity?

"Now that things have come to this, the most important thing now is to find a way to leave the Ancestral Land. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have allowed Lord Mourning to act so recklessly. "

Ming Shou's expression was solemn. Their original plan had been completely disrupted by Emperor Sheng. The most important thing now was to ensure that Mourning Yan and the Flaming Sun Crown Prince could leave this place.

He was assigned to assist Mourning Yan. Naturally, his first priority was to ensure his safety. The Flaming Sun Crown Prince was related to the Qiankun Group's plan in Great Cheng. Nothing could go wrong.

Ming Shou quickly analyzed the probability of escaping but found that the probability was terrifyingly low.

Ignoring the possibility of an ambush outside the Ancestral Land, just the Lesser Sage Old Crow alone was exceptionally difficult to deal with.

Yet at this time, Mourning Yan was still chasing after someone else. He had no idea what was going on.

He allowed Mourning Yan to chase after Chen Yi because he thought that everything was under control. However, he felt that something was off about Chen Yi. He wanted Mourning Yan to capture him and figure out what was going on.

However, in this situation, not having Mourning Yan by his side was a big problem. Old Crow was chasing after him relentlessly. He had no time to look for Mourning Yan. All he could do was run as far away as possible.

…

At an unknown depth underground, the underground river was flowing with magma, and the surrounding temperature had reached an extremely high level.

Gu Chen landed on the side of the river. He watched as the boiling lava flowed endlessly. The lava converged with other underground rivers and flowed deeper into the unknown.

"It's about time. This is the place," Ye Futian muttered.

He muttered to himself. He followed the cave all the way down until he reached the depths of the underground. The safe distance was enough.

He could sense that Mourning Yan was chasing after him. At the same time, he couldn't sense Ming Shou's aura.

Mourning Yan had fallen for his trap. He had indeed arrogantly chased after Ming Shou. Ming Shou believed that he had enough time to finish off Mourning Yan.

Gu Chen looked up and waited for his prey to come to him.

He wasn't disappointed. A moment later, a terrifying gray aura surged out of the cave. Mourning Yan had descended on the underground river.
