Chapter 3571
The First Heir
As soon as he finished speaking, a ray of light suddenly flashed in the Great Preceptorâs hand, and it
soared into the sky.
The sky rumbled. A cloud of fire enveloped the imperial city of the fire phoenix royal family.
Seeing this scene, Philip secretly speculated about the Great Preceptorâs strength.
Judging from the situation and his methods, the Great Preceptor should have reached the peak of nine
stars.
âWhat other proof do you need? Isnât it proof enough that the murderer is now in the imperial city of the
fire phoenix royal family? Do you need me to capture the murderer, Great Preceptor?â the seventh
prince said at this moment.
Compared to the sixth princeâs elegance, he was more frivolous. Only the eighth prince remained
silent, but he tightly held his spear in his hand.
The soldiers of the fire phoenix royal family behind him watched his movements closely. At his
command, they would rush into the imperial city of the fire phoenix royal family without hesitation.
âSixth, Seventh, and Eighth Princes, the Phoenix Tribulation is coming. Stop messing around. You
should know that the Phoenix Tribulation affects the next generation of our fire phoenix royal family. If it
really delays the inheritance of the phoenix totem, will you be able to bear the responsibility?â
At this time, a man in his 30s appeared beside the Great Preceptor.
Conlayâs eyes were complicated when he saw this person.
He whispered, âSecond Brother.â
Philip watched from the sidelines. He knew that everything would lead to him and Conlay in the end.
Conlay was a little distracted now.
Philip patted him lightly, and Conlay came back to his senses.
He muttered, âMy second brother should be distanced from worldly affairs. Among the nine princes, he
has never participated in any faction disputes, but now heâs standing by the Great Preceptorâs side.â
Philip narrowed his eyes. âDistanced from worldly affairs?â
That was probably not the case.
Seeing the Great Preceptorâs attitude toward the second prince, it was obvious that the second prince
was the one who had the final say.
The second prince with such a scheming aptitude was probably the root cause of Conlayâs downfall.
As Philip pondered, the eighth prince charged to the city gates with his spear and said, âSecond
Brother, the traitor is in the imperial city right now. Kill him for me and it wonât be too late for us to carry
on with the Phoenix Tribulation.â
Hearing this, the second prince exchanged glances with the Great Preceptor.
Suddenly, there was chaos in the city.
A team of guards from the fire phoenix royal family surrounded Philip and Conlay.
Almost everyone froze at this scene.
The second prince said, âEighth Prince, do you really think that Iâm not prepared for this? Iâll definitely
give you the explanation you want, but if you really barge into the imperial city of the fire phoenix royal
family with your people today, the nature of this matter will be different.â
The second prince was stem.
The sixth prince said to the eighth prince, âEighth Prince, what are you waiting for? Help Second
Brother take down the traitor.â
The people on the streets were in chaos.
Philip and Conlay stood in the middle with people surrounding them.
Neither the Great Preceptor nor the princes expected that Philip would stand on the streets with the
ninth prince.
âIâve not been back for so many years. Is this how you welcome me, my brothers?â Conlay no longer
restrained himself but allowed his air of superiority to spread around as he looked at everyone and
said.
He had a clear conscience. He left the imperial city of the fire phoenix royal family because he was
framed by a villain back then.
âNinth Prince, are you involved in the killing of the fire phoenix general too?â
