Rise of the Great Emperor - Chapter 438
Lin Xiao furrowed his brows. He signaled the others to spread. While he had thought that this plan would weaken Prince Lin Bo Wang considerably, he didn’t expect that the followers who followed Prince Lin Bo Wang was more than the number he got before.
Some people, who claimed that they were neutral was actually siding with Prince Lin Bo Wang.
“I really don’t understand this.” Prince Lin Bo Wang placed the sword on his shoulder, looking at Lin Xiao with condescending tone. “You’re nothing more than a country bumpkin, who got his status back after a blood test with the three siblings. What makes you think you have the right for the throne?
You’re nothing more than a low blood slave who should have just died back then in the backwater village.”
Lin Xiao chuckled. “Given the fact that I’m already put in the assassination list even before I know what’s going on around me, is it already proved that I actually had the qualification to fight with you for the throne?”
“Tsk…”
What Lin Xiao said was correct. it was not a secret that Prince Lin San’s twin sibling was lost because there were a lot of people who were aiming for the young prince’s life just because of the fact that the young prince had so much dragon power even in his youth.
People feared that he might be the Emperor even though the first prince came from the branch without much power. In the end, it only led them to hire people to assassinate the young baby.
“True, but you’ll never get the throne! It belongs to me!”
Bang!
As Prince Lin Bo Wang screamed loudly, his men also started to make their moves. There were two people who were already at Golden Core Stage 3 present there and Prince Lin Yan quickly engage one of them. As for the other one, Lin Yun and Fan Ling teamed up to fight him. Princess Lan Yi Hua and Prince Lin Xian quickly engage with the other elders in the room.
“Leave him to me.”
Elder Wang, who was staying as spectator at first, stepped forward. The man in front of him looked at the elder with widened eyes. Elder Wang was at Golden Core Stage 3, which meant that the power will be tilting to Lin Xiao’s favor.
“You’re on his side, Wang Jun?”
“I’m on the side of the right one.” Elder Wang looked at the three youngsters. “You go deal with the others.”
“Yes!”
With their power as Golden Core Stage 2 Cultivators, the fight soon turned in their favor. In the first place, Prince Lin Bo Wang’s followers were already tired and added with the fact that these youngsters were so energetic, they soon unable to catch up.
In the meantime, Prince Lin Bo Wang was facing Lin Xiao.
His sword crackled as lightning started to form on the surface of the sword he wielded. Lightning, the element that was known to have the most destructive power and also the element that Prince Lin Bo Wang had practiced so hard.
“Lightning…” Lin Xiao looked at the ripples on Prince Lin Bo Wang’s hand and nodded. “it’s no wonder that you win against Prince Lin Hong.”
“Heh. Enough chit chat!”
Swish!
With his movement technique, Prince Lin Bo Wang disappeared and reappeared near Lin Xiao. His hand brandished the sword that was covered in lightning as he attempted to take Lin Xiao’s life.
Chilling Lake Sword!
Clang!
The two swords clashed against each other as ice began to block the lightning. Prince Lin Bo Wang watched the ice formed and laughed. “Ice? How come you have such a cute element that’s more suitable to woman?”
Swish! Bang! Clang!
As Prince Lin Bo Wang attacked, Lin Xiao blocked the attack with ease. His eyes were looking back at the prince before him. If only the time and place was right, he would have uttered his complaint.
It was never his intention to have this element, alright?
The inheritance that he somehow got after wandering into the lake ended up to be the Lake Emperor’s Inheritance, which was the source of his element in the end.
And why they picked him, he never understood in the slightest bit.
Bang!
“You’re too noisy,” Lin Xiao spat out. He clearly didn’t want to lose face by saying that it was not the element that he wanted to pick.
Prince Lin Bo Wang snorted and swung his sword once more as the lightning crackled on the air before spreading around.
Clang!
Looking at the shattered ices, Lin Xiao clicked his tongue. It was hard to defend against lightning, especially because the attack power was so big. However, he only needed to stall for time.
Swish! Clang!
“How about you give up, Prince Lin Bo Wang? Your men wouldn’t last that long.” Lin Xiao twisted his body and evaded the attack.
Prince Lin Bo Wang snorted and then created a distance between him and Lin Xiao. He had obviously seen how his men were struggling because they were already mostly exhausted. “It’s time to end the game.”
“Game?” Lin Xiao arched his eyebrows.
Bang!
At this moment, faint pressure came from behind them. He turned his body around as the others also stopped their attack and regrouped with him at the center. With a glance, he could see that the person who came had the power of Golden Core Stage 3.
“Another Golden Core Stage 3 Cultivators?” Lin Xiao was shocked.
“He’s the Emperor’s right hand and normally stay neutral. His name is Yu Shi.” Wang Jun was the one to give the explanation. He looked at the middle aged man before him with bitter smile. “Who would have thought that he’s actually siding with Prince Lin Bo Wang.”
Lin Xiao nodded and looked at Prince Lin Bo Wang. As expected as the prince who has most influence. He couldn’t be underestimated.
The middle aged man, Yu Shi, looked at Prince Lin Bo Wang. “His Majesty had passed away.”
Prince Lin Bo Wang nodded. “I’ll be the next Emperor. Help me get rid of them.”
“Yes, Your….Majesty.”
