True Ambition, the Prince's Escape

"You mean, that other Celestial Person was just a fabrication by my brother to keep me in check?"

Inside the residence of the Carefree King.

A middle-aged man who bore a resemblance to Zhao Jin was sitting on a glass throne.

He was the younger brother of the Emperor of the Myriad Spirits Imperial Dynasty, born of the same mother.

The Carefree King, Zhao Yang.

The handsome man sitting on his other side was none other than Li Changsheng, the Divine Son of Kunlun.

"Your Carefree King, even if I didn't say it, you must have already suspected it."

Li Changsheng smiled slightly.

The Carefree King shook his head and said, "Even if I have doubts, I wouldn't dare to gamble so easily... After all, Song Huai was once the only Celestial Person in the Azure Heaven Realm, and even though he's old now, his influence still remains."

As he spoke.

He looked at Li Changsheng thoughtfully and smiled, "As for the secret that Young Master Li wants to know, only the one on the throne knows it best."

"Does Your Highness Carefree King, want me to help you seize the throne?"

The Carefree King's expression turned serious. "If Young Master Li helps me ascend the throne, I will answer all your questions truthfully and without reservation."

He valued Li Changsheng highly.

The Grandmaster under his command had also tested the opponent's strength; although the opponent was young, he was invincible at the Grandmaster Realm.

And their methods are extraordinary.

The workings of fate are wondrous.

He witnessed firsthand how this young master Li casually sprinkled a handful of rice on the chickens in the garden, and the chickens suddenly gained sentience. Such miraculous power of enlightenment, given time, would surely help him achieve great things.

The emergence of the farmers in the Azure Heaven Realm changed the world order.

The Myriad Spirits Imperial Dynasty reigns supreme over all under heaven.

Now.

The Carefree King saw a similar possibility in Li Changsheng.

Perhaps.

He will also usher in a great era.

Moreover, and most importantly, there's no need to worry that this Young Master Li will covet power in the Azure Heaven Realm; he has stated that he comes from another world.

Li Changsheng laughed and said, "I've already told you my identity. Aren't you afraid that the people from my world will rule the Azure Heaven Realm?"

"Hahahaha! If one can truly rule the Azure Heaven Realm, one must be at a level above the Celestial Person Realm. Since Young Master Li's world has already taken notice of the Azure Heaven Realm, no matter how I try to stop it, it will be futile, and I cannot change the predetermined outcome."

"Why not let me take charge of the Azure Heaven Realm? Even if Young Master Li's world wants to rule this place, it will still need someone like me who can be controlled, won't it?"

"You see things very clearly."

Li Changsheng smiled, then suddenly said, "But how could someone as ambitious as you be content to remain subservient to others for long?"

Upon hearing this...

The Carefree King smiled brightly and said, "Young Master Li has a keen eye. Of course, what I want is not just the Celestial Person Realm. I also want to see what the realm above the Celestial Person is like."

He had already thought about it.

Unable to change the fate of the Azure Heaven Realm, one should submit and thus gain access to the mysteries of that unknown world and a higher realm.

This is his true ambition.

When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter.

The grand scheme that the eldest prince had built over many years was instantly riddled with holes.

Countless people who once took sides are now trying their best to distance themselves from the situation.

It must be said that the eldest prince's web of schemes is quite extensive.

That's because the eldest prince is the most outstanding among all the princes.

The position of crown prince belongs to him without a doubt.

Even many court officials in the Myriad Spirits Imperial Dynasty had already shown their goodwill.

Many powerful sects and factions in the Azure Heaven Realm also treated him as the future emperor.

They felt that the eldest prince was destined for greatness.

Only.

The emperor delayed in appointing an heir apparent.

"So, he's doomed!"

Under the shade of a tree, Chen Ning lay leisurely on a recliner, shaking his head with a smile, "If your father had made him the crown prince earlier, perhaps he wouldn't have been such a bad emperor."

"Hmph! Are you criticizing my father, the Emperor?"

Zhao Yinyin frowned and said, "If Grandpa Song hears you say that, he'll definitely not let you off the hook."

"Celestial Person Song didn't hear it, but I did."

At this moment.

Zhao Jin walked over from not far away.

Meanwhile, the maids and servants in Zhao Yinyin's courtyard had already knelt on the ground.

It was Zhao Jin who told them not to make a sound.

"Father!"

Zhao Yinyin leaped off the recliner as if flying, stammering, "Chen Ning didn't mean that, he... he's from the mountains... he didn't mean to offend you..."

"Alright."

Zhao Jin looked at Zhao Yinyin with amusement and said, "He saved your life, how could I be so petty?"

"Thank you, Father Emperor."

Zhao Yinyin smiled sweetly, "Did you come all this way just to see Xiaoyin? You're so busy with state affairs, it's enough that Xiaoyin comes to see you."

"I've come to see you because I have something to ask you to do."

Is there anything I can do to share my father's burdens?

Zhao Yinyin seriously.

A look of worry flashed across Zhao Jin's brow as he said, "The boss has escaped."

Zhao Jin was referring to the eldest prince.

Zhao Yinyin exclaimed in surprise, "How could this be? Didn't you send Grandmaster to guard my eldest brother and not let him leave his residence? How did he have a chance to escape?"

"I underestimated him too..."

Zhao Jin frowned and said, "Our eldest brother has long since reached the Grandmaster Realm, but he has never revealed it. Now that he has shown his cultivation and escaped from the palace, he is difficult to find."
