Wu Dao sat on the dragon throne, his hands gripping the black jade-carved dragon heads, his body shrouded in black from head to toe.
He watched Chu Yihan and Qin Muyan charge towards him, their momentum surging, without showing any superfluous expression, only his voice, already hoarse, sounded even more sinister, âChu Yifeng, you dare to betray me.â
Chu Yifeng hadnât charged to the front, yet Wu Dao mentioned him first.
He responded calmly, âThatâs right, I think this should have been within your expectations.â
âExpected? Ha!â Wu Dao laughed coldly, âJust because I tested you a few years ago, so you hold a grudge against your teacher, me?â
He arranged for his âyounger brotherâ to bring people to kill him today?
If Wu Dao hadnât been so nonchalant, Chu Yifeng might have thought he remembered those days of living worse than death incorrectly.
But certain memories are etched in the bones, intertwined with the soul.
His lips curled up with an extremely wicked smile, âI wouldnât say I hold a grudge. Simply put, I also want to kill you.â
The reason wasnât very noble, not for the sake of the four kingdoms and nine provinces or anything, but simply because he wanted to kill Wu Dao.
This person was too cruel; his existence made him uncomfortable.
âYou also want to kill me?â Wu Daoâs eyes narrowed dangerously, âDonât forget! It was I who brought you here! Without me, you would still be in that laboratory, endlessly repeating those boring experiments! Youâd never see the light of day!â
Spend a lifetime locked in a laboratoryâno matter if one made world-shaking scientific discoveries, no matter how much one contributed to the country, they could never stand at the pinnacle of power, sit in the position above ten thousand people!
Such a life would be pitiful!
It was he who took notice of him, allowing him the chance to come here, to borrow the identity of a prince and assume the position of Silver Moon Pavilion Master!
All of this, it was all given to him by Wu Dao!
âIâm sorry, Iâve never seen what this so-called dark lab looks like, I, Chu Yifeng, was born a prince of the Great Cheng Dynasty, of noble identity, a dragon among men.â
Chu Yifengâs lips twisted into a light sneer.
Everyone heard the sound of Wu Daoâs sharp intake of breath.
âDid Rong Sheng help you deceive me?â Wu Daoâs eyes, filled with blood vessels, were barely visible.
Ominous and terrifying.
After training for so long, setting up for so long, and even testing repeatedly, Chu Yifeng wasnât the soul he had brought in!
He was not his student!
âHow⦠How could this be?â Han Yuwen was pinned against the wall, her eyes wide with shock.
Her medical skills saved her from being killed by Chu Yihanâs arrow, as she used surgical tools to remove the arrow, but she had lost too much blood and her complexion was deathly pale.
She begged Wu Dao for help, âTeacher save me! I will never betray you, I will always be your student! We came here together, didnât we?â
Chu Yifeng wasnât a modern soul, but she was!
She still wanted to share the prosperity with Wu Dao!
She also wanted to be the emperor of a nation!
âUseless thing, you canât even save yourself, why should I keep you!â Wu Daoâs attitude was exceptionally cold.
In his eyes, Han Yuwen was just a student who did tasks for him; useful when needed, no effort spared when not.
Especially in the current situation.
âChu Yifeng, who you are, is irrelevant,â Wu Dao said with a cold laugh.
With a wave of his hand, Hong Lian seized someone, appearing behind him.
âIsnât that⦠Princess Beiling?â Qin Muyan recognized Rong Sheng.
He had met Rong Sheng previously when he had gone to Beiling City; she was memorable.
Behind him, the soldiers of Beiling City were also shocked.
Their princess was in Wu Daoâs grasp.
âLet her go!â Chu Yifengâs eyes turned blood red the moment he saw Rong Sheng being captured, a bloodthirsty gleam taking over his gaze.
