The National Division Takes Sides

Some officials were now very puzzled and asked.

The second prince, Dongfang Xin, said that the crown prince was dead, but now he is standing here alive. What is the truth behind this? It is really confusing.

"Hehe."

"Second brother, you really wish for my death, don't you?"

Dongfang Yuan looked at Dongfang Xin at this moment and sneered.

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Xin's face changed instantly, and he angrily cursed, "Bold thief, how dare you impersonate my elder brother! You people from the Blood Shadow Tower really don't know the immensity of heaven and earth!"

"Someone, immediately kill this thief. He cannot be allowed to act so recklessly in this hall!"

Dongfang Xin had no other choice but to take immediate action as the situation had developed to this extent.

"Yes!"

At this moment, Tie Han immediately responded and then locked his gaze onto Dongfang Yuan, about to make a move to kill him.

"Hold on!"

"Second prince, how do you know that this person is impersonating the crown prince?"

At this moment, a burly middle-aged man spoke up.

This person's name was Shi Beitian, with the title of Heavenly Evolution King. He was the sworn brother of the Heavenly Evolution Emperor and the only king from a different surname in the Heavenly Evolution Dynasty.

Shi Beitian's words made Tie Han's actions come to a halt.

Dongfang Xin was very angry. How dare this Heavenly Evolution King openly question him? He would remember this.

"Heavenly Evolution King, I just said that my elder brother was killed by the assassins from the Blood Shadow Tower. The Grand Tutor and Commander Huang have witnessed it with their own eyes."

"Now this thief appears here in the guise of my elder brother. It is undoubtedly an impersonation. What more explanation is needed?" Dongfang Xin said firmly.

"Yes, I have personally seen the crown prince's body. This person is undoubtedly an imposter from the Blood Shadow Tower!" The Grand Tutor immediately spoke up to confirm.

"What a loyal dog, following Dongfang Xin and learning to protect him," Dongfang Yuan directly insulted.

"Outrageous!" The Grand Tutor was furious at being insulted.

But Dongfang Yuan ignored him and continued to look at Dongfang Xin, or rather, the imperial seal in his hand.

Dongfang Yuan had a thought.

Suddenly, the imperial seal in Dongfang Xin's hand disappeared without a trace, and in the next moment, it inexplicably appeared in Dongfang Yuan's hand.

"What?!"

"You...how is this possible?"

"Thief, if you dare to damage my imperial seal, I will tear you into pieces!"

Seeing the imperial seal in his hand suddenly appear in Dongfang Yuan's hand, Dongfang Xin's face changed in shock, then turned angry, and loudly warned.

The Prime Minister, the Grand Tutor, the National Teacher, and the Heavenly Evolution King, the powerful figures in the hall, all had their pupils shrink and their gazes tremble when they saw the imperial seal appear in Dongfang Yuan's hand.

It was too fast!

How did he do it? How could a waste of cultivation like him take the imperial seal in front of everyone's eyes, and even the Prime Minister didn't react at all.

The Prime Minister's eyes were fixed on Dongfang Yuan, and he remained silent, choosing to observe in silence.

Since ancient times, the royal family has been known for their ruthlessness, and there have been many instances of fratricide.

But as a subject, once you stand on the wrong side, there is no chance of redemption.

However, Dongfang Yuan ignored Dongfang Xin and revealed a playful smile.

Immediately after, in front of everyone's eyes, he condensed a drop of blood on his fingertip and dropped it onto the imperial seal.

The blood integrated into the imperial seal, and suddenly the entire golden array of the seal emitted a brilliant and dazzling light, illuminating the entire hall.

"The Heavenly Inheritance Imperial Seal, passed down to this day, primarily represents one's identity!"

"And as long as there is royal blood in one's body, once it comes into contact with the blood of the seal, it will emit a golden light. The purer and more concentrated the bloodline, the more brilliant the light will become."

"So, do you still want to say that I am fake now, my dear younger brother?"

A playful smile appeared on Dongfang Yuan's face as he looked at Dongfang Xin.

At this moment, Dongfang Xin's face had turned extremely dark, as gloomy as water, and even had a hint of ferocity in his expression.

The entire hall fell into silence.

Even if the civil and military officials were foolish, they completely understood at this moment.

The person before them was undoubtedly their Crown Prince of the Heavenly Evolution Dynasty.

And this also clearly proved that what the Grand Tutor, the Commander of the Imperial Guards, and the Second Prince had said about the Crown Prince's death, and witnessing his corpse, was undoubtedly false.

However, there were still many people in the hall who didn't quite understand.

Why did the Crown Prince today feel like a completely different person?

Not only his tone of speech, but also his behavior, demeanor, and gaze had undergone a tremendous change.

And like the Prime Minister, he even felt a faint sense of oppression from Dongfang Yuan.

"Is it an illusion?"

The Prime Minister couldn't help but doubt, unable to be certain.

Because it was too absurd.

He was at the peak of the Law Manifestation Realm, the current strongest in the Heavenly Evolution Dynasty.

And the Crown Prince, Dongfang Yuan, was just a young generation, and also a cultivation waste with no talent, only at the Innate Realm.

Someone like him could easily crush a large group with a wave of his hand, so how could he possibly feel threatened by him?

This was most likely his own illusion.

That's what the Prime Minister thought in his heart.

However, faced with Dongfang Yuan's questioning, Dongfang Xin's face was embarrassed, and for a moment, he was speechless.

"Crown Prince."

"Even if you are still alive, you cannot ascend to the throne."

"It is well known that the Second Prince's talent and aptitude are exceptional in the entire Northern Domain. He even has a Heavenly Venerable Realm expert as his teacher, with a naturally supreme bone. In the future, he will undoubtedly break through to the Heavenly Venerable Realm and become a powerful figure!"

"What the Heavenly Evolution Dynasty needs now is a wise ruler with exceptional talent like the Second Prince. Only the Second Prince can lead us further and have the strength to avenge Your Majesty!"

"So, Crown Prince, for the sake of the Heavenly Evolution Dynasty and the overall situation, please give up the throne."

At this moment, no one expected that the National Teacher suddenly turned around and spoke to Dongfang Yuan.
