Xuexue deliberately asked loudly, "Prince, is there a way?"
Long Rui imdiately replied, "Practice the evil cultivation! Most of the martial world knows that once you practice evil cultivation, it can indeed make the eyes grow back. However, this martial art is very sinister, and practicing it requires using living people. If the deceased are not properly handled, it can trigger madness. Decades ago, such an incident happened once, and several people died, nearly leading to the destruction of Moli Country."
Turning to the Emperor, Long Rui asked, "Emperor, do you rember?"
Decades ago, there indeed was a major event, with many casualties. After that incident, Moli Country suffered a great deal and it took a long ti to recover. The Emperor, being only a few years old at the ti, had a vague mory of it. He tried hard to recall, having heard from his deceased imperial father about the evil cultivation, though he forgot the details. If checked, it would be easy, as it is recorded in the Royal Family’s secret history.
However, this book contains many secrets of the Forr Dynasty, and the Emperor, fearing it would tarnish the Royal Family’s reputation, locked it away. Since his ascension, he has not opened it.
The Emperor nodded, "Indeed, sothing like that happened."
Long Rui added, "It was caused by soone practicing evil cultivation. Subsequently, the Imperial court and righteous martial artists jointly suppressed the cult sect people, thereby controlling the situation, leading to the disappearance of evil cultivation for decades."
Long Rui turned to the Fourth Prince and asked, "May I ask, Fourth Prince, where did you learn the evil cultivation from?"
Long Rui spoke so clearly that the Fourth Prince was secretly shocked, as he really hadn’t heard of this matter. However, he remained outwardly calm, simply saying, "I, the Prince, did not practice evil cultivation, nor do I understand what the Prince is talking about."
Xuexue rubbed her chin with one jade hand, pondering slowly, "It’s heard that the Fourth Prince recently apprenticed to a master, called what Kong? Seed like he’s the Heavenly Master Zhang’s master. Is it possible he taught the Fourth Prince evil cultivation? This person is too malicious, teaching evil cultivation to the Prince of the current dynasty. What is his intention? Could he be a spy from a neighboring country, using the Fourth Prince to destroy Moli Country?"
Xuexue’s words caught the Emperor’s attention, as the Emperor’s lifelong fear was others coveting his throne.
"Xuanxuan, is what the Princess Consort of War Prince said true?" The Emperor’s face looked uglier, as this concerned his dynasty, and he would abandon even his own son if necessary.
The Fourth Prince panicked, quickly saying, "Imperial father, don’t listen to the Princess Consort of War Prince’s nonsense. She just wants us father and son to turn against each other so she and the War Prince can exploit the situation."
Xuexue sneered coldly, "Fourth Prince is facing imminent death and still wants to drag and the Prince into the water, huh? Your apprenticeship, everyone knows in the Capital. The Emperor just needs to send soone to investigate casually to find out the truth. Would I, the Princess Consort, need to make up nonsense?"
"Imperial father."
The Fourth Prince suddenly plopped down, kneeling before the Emperor, and began sobbing, "I was also deceived. I don’t know anything, only knowing Lin Kong is the master of Heavenly Master Zhang, very skilled. I only wanted to learn so skills to ease imperial father’s worries. I haven’t done anything to disappoint imperial father."
The Fourth Prince, thinking carefully, knew he could not hide the matter of apprenticing Lin Kong from the Emperor and decided it was better to confess.
The Emperor looked at the Fourth Prince with heartbreak, "Honestly tell Us, did you practice the evil cultivation?"
From Long Rui’s description, the Emperor recalled past events. Although the childhood mory was vague, the Emperor’s heart knew the Fourth Prince indeed secretly practiced evil cultivation; otherwise, the eyes would not have grown back.
