The next day, early morning.
Prince Yu, dressed in a magnificent robe with nine embroidered patterns and wearing a crown, ascended the ninety-nine jade steps with a solemn expression.
Although this Temple of Heaven was built overnight by people dispatched from the prefectural capital of Heng Province, it still exudes the utmost honor and solemnity.
soon:
Prince Yu ascended to the top of the Temple of Heaven, solemnly took out a jade talisman from his sleeve, and cast a spell.
boom!
The jade talisman immediately burst forth with light, transforming into a pillar of light that shot straight into the sky!
Prince Yu took a deep breath and said solemnly:
Your humble servant, the nephew of the current Emperor Mingzong, who governs the Zhongliang Kingdom, and the grandson of the former Emperor Shenzong, hereby petitions Heaven.
He briefly recounted the horrific riot that had occurred in the Zhongliang Kingdom Capital.
After he finished speaking, he stared at the talisman hanging in mid-air, waiting anxiously.
The descent of an envoy from the Upper Realm is a rare occurrence, happening only once every few thousand years.
He would only petition the heavens when there were earth-shattering events in the mortal realm that reached a point where they were difficult to manage and threatened the very foundation of the nation. Therefore, he was not worried that there would be no response from above.
His worry was that even though he was already fast enough, someone else might beat him to it, and all his hard work would be for nothing.
If one fails to seize the initiative, then wanting to succeed to the throne is essentially tantamount to having no hope.
Fortunately, he seems to have had some good luck.
After waiting for a moment:
Boom!
A deafening roar was heard, and in the sky above, layers of clouds parted and burst forth with five-colored rays of light!
The entire sky, stretching for millions of miles, was dyed in vibrant colors!
It's here!
Upon witnessing this scene, Prince Yu was overjoyed!
This earth-shattering phenomenon was recorded in the royal family's secret records; it was a celestial sign of an envoy from the Upper Realm descending!
At the foot of the Temple of Heaven, many powerful officials and regional governors who supported Prince Yu were also overjoyed and very excited.
The next moment:
Amidst endless five-colored rays of light, a young man clad in a magnificent golden robe slowly descended from the sky.
Are you Prince Yu Zhao Decheng?
The young man in the golden robe landed atop the Temple of Heaven, looked at Prince Yu, and spoke calmly.
Yes, I am Prince Yu.
Prince Yu's attitude was quite respectful, and he said cautiously:
I wonder who your esteemed envoy is?
The identities of the envoys from the Upper Realm are also different; it seems that there are people specifically assigned to handle this matter within the Great Cang Divine Kingdom.
I am your great-uncle, the emperor of the Zhongliang Kingdom nine generations ago.
The young man in the golden robe slowly spoke, giving an unexpected answer.
This is actually our ancestor in person?!
Prince Yu was taken aback for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening and knelt down respectfully, overjoyed!
He never expected that, by such a coincidence, the person on duty in the Heavenly Court today, managing this matter, would be one of their Zhao Clan's ancestors who had ascended to the Upper World!
He had heard of this ancestor's great name; it was said that he was one of the very few people who, despite being an emperor, cultivated to the Divine Treasure Realm and ascended to the Upper Realm!
As long as this ancestor is willing to support him, once he speaks, who can shake his future position?
Zhao Decheng, an unfilial descendant, pays his respects to his ancestor!
Prince Yu Zhao Decheng's attitude was extremely respectful.
Get up.
The young man in the golden robe frowned and asked:
Your report to your superiors wasn't detailed enough. Tell me in detail what exactly happened.
Historically, changes in the Middle World have generally been caused by large-scale uprisings breaking out among the lower and middle classes, with the emergence of a few exceptionally talented individuals, making the rebellions difficult to suppress.
But stories like this, where someone single-handedly storms the capital and kills the emperor, are simply outrageous and have never actually happened.
Yes, our ancestors.
Prince Yu, having made up his mind, rose from the ground and said repeatedly:
Here's what happened, about four days ago
He recounted in detail the turmoil that occurred in the capital that day.
The more the golden-robed youth listened, the more his brows furrowed, and he asked with a hint of doubt:
Are you sure what you're saying is true, or that you're not experiencing some kind of hallucination?
Did that person really shatter the imperial capital's grand formation with a single strike and kill hundreds of the Peak Heavenly Impulse Realm?
Absolutely true!
Prince Yu said repeatedly:
Ancestor, I swear on my life that everything I've said is true!
Many of those who witnessed it that day fled the capital. The old ancestor could easily verify the truth by asking anyone he knew.
Upon hearing this, the young man in the golden robe pondered for a moment and said:
Yeah
He believed that Prince Yu would never dare to deceive him, but he still couldn't be sure whether the man's words were true or false.
After all, even for him, to achieve the current result, he would have to go all out and even use his Innate Divine Ability in conjunction with his divine Divine Weapon.
Does someone merely at the Peak Heavenly Impulse Realm possess such strength?
When did a Supreme Being at the Peak Heavenly Impulse Realm possess power comparable to a Great Being of the Divine Treasure Realm?
Hmm, could it be that this person is a master of illusion, using illusions to envelop the entire capital and trap everyone in a hallucination?
It's not impossible.
Thoughts raced through the mind of the young man in the golden robe.
He even believes the latter is more likely.
After all, it's truly unimaginable for someone at the Heavenly Impulse Realm to fight against the Divine Treasure Realm.
Decheng.
Thinking of this, the golden-robed youth turned to Prince Yu beside him and gave the order:
"Come with me to the capital!" said Meow Meow.
In any case, he'll find out the truth once he goes there in person.
Even if that person truly possessed power comparable to the Divine Treasure Realm expert, he would not be afraid in the slightest.
How could a powerful being like him be afraid of someone at the Heavenly Impulse Realm?
Even if he were truly no match for his opponent, he could still communicate with the Upper World in a moment and retreat, escaping with no chance of survival.
Is my ancestor taking me to the capital?
Prince Yu was stunned for a moment, then his heart was filled with ecstasy.
It is obvious:
This ancestor intends to strike at the heart of the matter, directly exterminate that treacherous usurper, and end the source of chaos!
This was not unexpected.
But in this situation, the fact that this ancestor called him over clearly revealed some kind of meaning.
good.
The young man in the golden robe glanced at him and said meaningfully:
Your ability to be the first to build the Temple of Heaven and invite me down to the mortal realm is a blessing in itself.
The lineage of the Zhao Clan must not be broken.
Emperor Mingzong, since you have no son to inherit the throne, then after I quell the usurper rebellion, you shall become emperor.
Upon hearing this, Prince Yu's face lit up with barely suppressed joy, and he bowed deeply in homage.
Thank you, our ancestors, for making this possible!
Let's go.
With a flick of his sleeve, the golden-robed youth unleashed a vast golden light that enveloped Prince Yu, instantly sending him soaring into the sky and hurtling towards the capital.
It will only take an hour to get to the capital!
An hour later, it will be time for that traitor to be beheaded!
