The coastal waters of Huaibei.
Inside the palace of the undersea territory.
Cang Yu knelt down in the center of the main hall alone, and a phantom stood on the high platform directly above him.
This phantom figure is graceful, and it is the empress.
At this time, the empress Xuying raised his left hand, and held the pale orange sacred fruit in the palm of his hand.
Cang Yu knelt on the ground, his head pressed against the ground, not daring to move.
The empress hadn't spoken for a few minutes, which made his heart very nervous and even a little scared.
What happened in Dazhoushan... Will the emperor know about it
Whether he cooperated with Fang Yu, or he killed the seriously injured Cangyang... it was a capital crime!
"No, it's impossible... If the mother knows those things, and I'm already dead, she won't be able to give me a chance to explain." Cang Yu comforted herself in her heart.
"... Very good."
Just when Cang Yu was so nervous that his heart was upset, the phantom in front of him finally made a sound.
Cang Yu was shocked.
"Raise your head." The empress's voice sounded again.
Cang Yu slowly raised his head and looked forward.
At this time, the shadow of the empress slowly floated towards him.
Soon, came to him.
Cang Yu looked up at the flickering phantom in front of him, swallowed, expecting and nervous in his heart.
"Cangyu, your performance on this trip... is better than your three brothers, and the mother and queen... are very pleased." The empress said.
Hearing these words, Cangyu's face changed slightly, trying to pretend to be sad, and choked up: "The mother, the three elder brothers, and the Mo Xu Tianshi... all died for the sacred fruit, I can get the holy Fruit... They also have a lot of credit."
The empress lowered her head slightly and looked at Cang Yu.
Because it was a phantom, Cang Yu couldn't see the empress's expression at this time.
"Like your Majesty, I always only look at the results." The empress said in a calm tone, "Anyone who can let me see good results will be rewarded. As for the losers... Don't mention it again. Their death is just To discredit the reputation of our Shenhai royal family."
Hearing these words, Cang Yu relaxed a lot.
But at the same time, I felt cold in my hands and feet.
Although he knew early on, the law of iron and blood in the Shenhai Dynasty had always been like this.
But when he heard the indifference and coldness in the empress's tone, he still felt cold inside.
Cangyang, Cang Yue, Cang Yun... The three of them, like Cang Yu, were all heirs of the emperor.
The three sons died together, and the empress, who was the mother, didn't even have a trace of sadness.
The cold tone in the tone is more like the anger caused by the damage of the royal family's reputation caused by the death of these three people, or... the impact on her own reputation.
Cang Yu knew in his heart that the empress treated the other heirs like this, and the attitude towards him was the same.
Just as Cang Yu was thinking about it, he suddenly felt a warmth on his forehead.
The empress phantom in front of him placed his right hand on his forehead.
"bass!"
The soul jade mark on Cangyu's forehead glowed with dazzling light.
The warmth gradually turned into a burning sensation.
"what… "
The burning sensation became stronger and stronger, causing pain, which made Cang Yu couldn't help screaming.
However, the hand of the empress was close to his forehead, and she couldn't get rid of it.
Soul jade is like a stone in lava, the heat is getting higher and higher, almost to the point of unbearable.
Cang Yu screamed again and again, and his body was twitching.
This process lasted nearly two minutes.
"Crack!"
At a certain critical point, there was a soft sound from the soul jade.
The hand of the Empress Xuying took it back.
At the same time, the burning sensation in the soul jade began to fade.
At this moment, Cang Yu was already limp on the ground, unable to move.
"This is the reward I bestowed on you. Starting today, you have entered the first echelon of candidates for the crown prince." The empress said lightly, "but you want to become a crown prince, and you need to look at your performance afterwards."
"You only need to beat all the candidates to become the prince."
"This is a rare opportunity, cherish it."
After saying this, the phantom of the empress began to slowly dissipate.
Silence was restored in the hall again.
Cang Yu lay on the ground, motionless.
It took a full half an hour before he breathed a sigh of relief and barely stood up.
He was pale and raised his right hand, covering his forehead.
The location of the soul jade on his forehead was still hot.
At this time, the soul jade was still shining with blue light, but it appeared brighter than the previous light.
"The candidate for the prince..." Cang Yu's eyes flickered.
He didn't expect that he approached the position of the prince so quickly.
This is also where Fang Yu wants to push him up.
only…
Cang Yu thought of the top princes in the imperial clan... he felt a little frustrated.
Even if Fang Yu can continue to help him win the sacred fruit, forcibly push him to the position of prince... he still needs to face the challenges of these princes.
The princes in the first echelon... all have extraordinary combat power.
Their goal is to be the crown prince.
Cang Yu wanted to sit on the position of the crown prince, only the support of the empress was definitely not enough.
Sooner or later, he needs to face these first-tier princes and defeat them one by one.
In this process... With the style of the emperor, it is absolutely impossible to provide help.
What should I do
Relying on Cang Yu's own words, there are only ten... it is impossible to compete with these princes who are fighting against the sky!
But if you want Fang Yu to help... how can you help
Is it possible for Fang Yu to sneak directly into the royal family
This is not only extremely difficult, but also very risky.
Once discovered... Cang Yu died without a place to bury him.
After thinking for a while, Cang Yu's face turned pale, and his heart sank to the bottom.
When things came to an end, he discovered... This road to the crown prince was extremely dangerous!
…
"Are you a candidate for the crown prince so soon? This is completely in accordance with my plan." Fang Yu said, sitting on the top of the bamboo building.
"I must tell you, I want to become the prince, besides the mother queen, I have to deal with the first echelon princes in the royal family. Their strength... is much higher than me! I am facing them, I am afraid that I will die!" Cang Yu said with some excitement.
"How many princes are in the first echelon?" Fang Yu asked.
"..." Cang Yu thought for a while and replied, "I know at least eight!"
"Eight... The problem is not big, and it will be solved slowly later." Fang Yu said lightly.
"I have to tell you, these eight princes... are different from my three elder brothers. They are real evildoers! Their strength..." It seems that Cang Yu became more excited when he heard Fang Yu's disapproval.
"Okay, don't make noise." Fang Yu interrupted Cang Yu's words and said, "My ultimate goal is not to make you a prince, but to make you the Great Emperor of Shenhai."
"If you can't even handle a few quasi-princes, what kind of emperor would you be?"
"Also, I suggest that you don't have to do other things from now on. Practice your courage first and cultivate your temperament... Otherwise, even if you sit on the position of the emperor, it will not have a substantial effect."
"..." Cang Yu had nothing to say.
After communicating with Cang Yu, Fang Yu stood up.
Daoren Jiang is dead, and Wuchenzi's whereabouts cannot be traced temporarily.
After thinking about it, he came to the building where Qin Yao was located.
This building has been converted into a nursing home.
Those monks who were rescued from the prison before are all currently receiving treatment in the nursing home.
Fang Yu walked around in the sanatorium and found that many monks had awakened.
When these monks saw Fang Yu, they looked shocked, but they all knew that Fang Yu had rescued them and freed them from the sea of suffering, and thanked them in unison.
After strolling around in the sanatorium, Fang Yu arrived at the back yard, Qin Yao was busy dispensing medicine.
Ye Shengxue helped Qin Yao on the sidelines.
"Mr. Fang." Seeing Fang Yu, Qin Yao immediately bent over.
"Mr. Fang, you are here." Ye Shengxue also turned around and greeted Fang Yu.
"Thanks, I think they are recovering pretty well," Fang Yu said.
"Yes, fortunately these cultivators are very high-level and have good physical foundations, so they recovered very smoothly." Qin Yao replied.
"If you feel tired, you can take a break," Fang Yu said.
"It's okay, Mr. Fang, we..." Ye Shengxue was talking, but she was taken aback, and then said, "Mr. Fang, someone is visiting outside the gate. It should be you."
"Who?" Fang Yu asked.
