Chapter 396 - 118: If You Never Appeared From The Start (Please Subscribe)_3
Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan’s icy face was wet with tears as he gazed down at Cheng Guang beneath him.
At this moment, he seemed to have become unable to distinguish clearly.
Whether it was the face of his own grandson, or that of the Great Chu Crown Prince.
After taking a deep breath, Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan said nothing more, and sent a palm strike towards Cheng Guang from the air.
A terrifying aura, mixed with torrential Qi brilliance, formed a palm that seemed capable of covering the sun and falling straight towards Cheng Guang.
The Sky-Men surrounding them had their eyes flicker, watching as the Crown Prince of Great Chu was about to die, ready to make a move.
When the Great Chu royal family was trampled upon years ago, they had not caught on, nor did they have the chance to understand the royal family’s secrets. The survival of this Crown Prince of Great Chu, if he were to die now, it would be quite a pity.
Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan sensed the Sky-Men’s movements around him and with a glowering face, he bellowed, "Get away from me!"
The Sky-Men who considered intervening hesitated, their expressions ugly, but they refrained from any further action.
Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan’s palm struck Cheng Guang.
In front of Cheng Shiyuan, a Sky-Man, Cheng Guang had no chance to react at all; his body, as if struck by lightning, froze on the spot. Nôv(el)B\\jnn
With just one palm strike, it made him feel as if his body were being torn apart.
His Primordial Spirit instantly dissipated.
Blood flowed from the seven orifices of his flesh.
After a few tremors of his body, he fell straight to the ground.
In the end, Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan still showed restraint, leaving Cheng Guang an intact corpse.
Otherwise, at this moment, Cheng Guang would have already been annihilated.
After being struck by Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, Cheng Guang’s vital energy disappeared instantly, and his once unparalleled handsome face turned dull and lightless.
The air around became still.
"So... he’s dead?"
Some exchanged looks.
They had not expected Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan to act so decisively.
Nor had they expected Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir, to die so simply.
But as time ticked by, the lack of any sign of life in Cheng Guang’s body proved that he was most certainly dead.
Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan watched the fallen Cheng Guang with cold tiger eyes, his expression unchanged.
He seemed extremely calm, but from the trembling of his hands, it was clear.
That executing Cheng Guang had required a great resolution from him.
Cheng Guang resembled his real grandson exactly.
And they had spent time together, day and night.
Even if Cheng Guang’s identity was false, for a time, the feelings between them had been real.
The time they had shared together was also real.
Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan closed his eyes in pain, waving his hand, his gesture thoroughly dispersing Cheng Guang’s body.
Those who had been keen to fight over Cheng Guang’s body, on seeing Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan directly dispersing it, couldn’t help but sigh in disappointment.
At the moment of Cheng Guang’s death.
Qing Luan beside him felt her breath catch, and with a mournful cry, she seemed to step into emptiness and fell towards the ground.
Her entire body collapsed, feeling an acidity at the tip of her nose.
Tears streamed from her beautiful eyes incessantly.
Her lips parted slightly, yet she was unable to speak a word.
Before Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan had appeared, she had thought they could escape.
But the moment when Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan appeared, with a single exertion of his power, he had directly killed Cheng Guang.
The capability to overpower Wu Qiche, the Third Prince of Great Yuan, no longer held much use.
Beside Qing Luan, the Commandery Princess of Prince Ning’s eyes flickered endlessly. Since the moment Cheng Guang had given her the yellow flower, her whole person seemed to have been plunged into a state of daze.
Until the death of Cheng Guang.
Only then did she come back to her senses.
Her heart felt like it had been struck by a heavy hammer, a piercing pain.
The Commandery Princess of Prince Ning clutched her chest tightly with her hands, completely bewildered.
At this moment, she felt as if the entire world before her eyes had turned the color of blood.
"He’s dead, dead..."
"Now in this world, only Jing’er is left alone."
"Father Emperor, Mother Empress, what should Jing’er do, what to do..."
Explore new worlds at empire
The Commandery Princess of Prince Ning felt her heart wrenching, a bone-chilling cold arose from nowhere, infiltrating her limbs and bones unboundedly.
She silently gazed at the many strong figures around, looking at the spot where Cheng Guang had just been standing.
That place.
Where Cheng Guang had just stood.
Only little pieces of his brocade robe remained.
Not far from Cheng Guang, the warriors of Great Chu stiffened the moment Cheng Guang died. The lifelessness in their eyes was now replaced with unstoppable sorrow.
"Our general has fallen, and so shall we!"
All at once, a voice echoed.
The warriors of Great Chu drew their swords and mounted their steeds, beating the war drums as they charged towards Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, who stood aloft in the air.
Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, hearing the commotion, looked down at the warriors of Great Chu with an icy, numb gaze.
He raised his hand slightly.
Calmly striking down.
The bodies of the warriors of Great Chu halted abruptly, and a gentle breeze caressed them.
All warriors of Great Chu, their bodies like formations of sand, were scattered by the wind without any resistance.
In moments, they all disappeared from this world.
After shattering the warriors of Great Chu with one palm, Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan’s gaze fell on the Commandery Princess of Prince Ning not far away.
His eyes condensed slightly, just about to step forward and target the Commandery Princess of Prince Ning.
That’s when the nearby Sky-Men, who had been watching the scene unfold, finally could no longer sit idly by.
"Duke of the State from Great Zhou, we have no objections to you killing that Crown Prince of Great Chu, but you cannot harm this Commandery Princess of Prince Ning."
