We Agreed You’d Just Play the Divine Son, So How Did You Become the Forbidden Zone Emperor? Chapter 84 : Chapter 84

Chapter 84. Already Shoulder to Shoulder, the Chu Emperor Is About to Pass Away!

At this mont, the royal descendants’ ability to read the situation and flatter others was fully displayed.

They gathered around Chu Feng, flattering him as much as they possibly could.

After all, the First Prince and the Second Prince already had countless followers around them.

It was impossible for these people to join their ranks.

However, Chu Feng currently had very few followers by his side.

If they could establish a connection with Chu Feng, their future would be promising!

However, Chu Feng had absolutely no interest in these people.

He ignored their flattery entirely, not even glancing at them.

The princes and princesses who were flattering him looked embarrassed. Though they felt sowhat displeased, they did not dare show even the slightest hint of it.

In the Ancient Immortal World where strength reigned supre, let alone ignoring them—

Even if Chu Feng directly told them to get lost, they could only respond with forced smiles.

They were all mbers of the royal family, all children of the Chu Emperor.

But differences in maternal family background and personal strength ant their status varied enormously.

…

Imperial City of Great Chu.

The chaos caused by the Heavenly Demon Sect in Cangzhou had already reached the Imperial City.

When many of the great figures of the Imperial City learned about the Heaven-Refining Demonic Array, they were greatly shocked.

The Imperial City was filled with powerful experts.

They were well-inford.

They had long heard of the ancient and fearso reputation of the Heaven-Refining Demonic Array.

No one expected the Heavenly Demon Sect to control such an ancient killing array. It was truly terrifying.

Fortunately, the Heavenly Demon Sect’s disaster had been resolved this ti.

If they had truly succeeded in swallowing Cangzhou…

The final result would have been that Cangzhou completely fell into the Heavenly Demon Sect’s territory.

And with the Heavenly Demon Sect’s expansion speed, after conquering Cangzhou, they certainly would not stop.

They would move like thunder toward several nearby provinces.

At that ti, the many elders of the Heavenly Demon Sect would already have beco Self-Severing Realm experts.

Who among those nearby provinces could possibly resist them?!

The Heavenly Demon Sect would sweep through everything, destroying all opposition like dry weeds before a storm.

Just thinking about it caused many great figures of the Imperial City to grow solemn.

If the Heavenly Demon Sect had truly been allowed to develop, the entire Great Chu would likely have been plunged into catastrophe.

Even if soone from Great Chu eventually eliminated the Heavenly Demon Sect, the losses suffered by Great Chu would already be irreversible.

Fortunately, the Heavenly Demon Sect’s disaster had stopped at Cangzhou.

And everyone knew who the greatest contributor to resolving this crisis had been.

The Third Prince—Chu Feng!

He had perceived the Array Core of the Heaven-Refining Demonic Array and destroyed the formation directly, reversing the entire situation.

For a ti, the entire Imperial City was in an uproar.

Even the hidden ancient clans that had coexisted with Great Chu for ages, along with those ancient sects with long histories, could not help revealing expressions of surprise toward Chu Feng.

When Chu Feng won first place in the Heavenly Hunt Ceremony, many people had already held high expectations for him.

However, at that ti they still felt that Chu Feng was too weak and that there remained a considerable gap between him and the First Prince and Second Prince.

But now—who would still think there was a gap?

The Third Prince Chu Feng had clearly reached the point where he could stand shoulder to shoulder with the first two princes.

As for who was stronger… no one could say for sure!

The struggle for the position of Holy Emperor had already entered its final stage, and now another contender had appeared.

And just as Chu Feng returned to the Imperial City, terrible news ca from the deepest part of the Imperial Palace.

The current Chu Emperor’s injuries had worsened. The backlash against his foundational origin had beco extrely severe.

Even one of the Supre Three Ancestors had personally examined him.

In the end, he rely shook his head and concluded that the emperor did not have long to live.

Moreover, that mber of the Supre Three Ancestors had already determined the final limit of the Chu Emperor’s life.

No more than two months.

Within that ti, the Chu Emperor would pass away!

The mont this news spread, the entire Great Chu erupted in shock.

The turmoil caused by the Heavenly Demon Sect was imdiately overshadowed by this matter.

After all, the death of the Holy Emperor of Great Chu would shake the heavens and the earth, and the ascension of a new emperor would surely be accompanied by storms of bloodshed!

After arriving in the Imperial City, Chu Feng also learned of this news.

His eyes narrowed slightly.

“The Chu Emperor… is about to die?”

Chu Feng murmured softly, recalling the sickly appearance of the Chu Emperor.

During the Heavenly Hunt Ceremony, he had looked weak and exhausted, like a candle flickering in the wind, as if he might collapse at any mont.

Yet at the final mont, the Chu Emperor had still been able to use the Heavenly Illumination Mirror to investigate him.

Was this man truly nearing his end?

Chu Feng pondered quietly, recalling a scene from the Royal Hunting Grounds.

Those strange demonic beasts that had been contaminated by so special substance—

How had they ultimately been dealt with? Even now, there had been no clear explanation.

After thinking for a mont, Chu Feng shook his head and stopped dwelling on it.

It was better to focus on improving his own strength first.

After returning to the Imperial Palace, Consort Yu sent soone to summon Chu Feng.

Chu Feng gladly went.

Before long, he arrived at Jinxuan Palace.

Jinxuan Palace was just as quiet and desolate as ever.

Consort Yu’s personal maidservant, Xiao Qing, escorted Chu Feng to the palace entrance and then waited outside.

Chu Feng entered alone, strolling leisurely inside.

Soon he saw Consort Yu seated in the main seat.

“This palace has still underestimated you.”

Consort Yu sat upright, gazing at Chu Feng. “I did not expect you to see through the Array Core of the Heaven-Refining Demonic Array. Such ability is truly unbelievable.”

Clearly, Consort Yu understood the terror of the Heaven-Refining Demonic Array.

Seeing through its core was no easy matter.

Chu Feng appeared very casual and said little. Yet the more indifferent he seed, the more Consort Yu sensed just how formidable he had beco.

His growth was far too rapid.

Perhaps it would not be long before he could even catch up to her.

But in that case, the chances of seizing the position of Holy Emperor would also increase greatly.

“I wonder why Consort Yu summoned here?” Chu Feng asked casually.

Consort Yu replied solemnly, “In resolving the Heavenly Demon Sect’s disaster, you have earned the greatest rit.”

“His Majesty has granted you so rewards.”

As she spoke, a silver bracelet appeared in her hand.

“Inside are two hundred thousand Divine Source Stones, along with five tenth-rank spiritual dicines.”

Upon hearing this, a glimr of light appeared in Chu Feng’s eyes.

This reward was quite good.

Combined with the Divine Source Stones he received in Cangzhou, Chu Feng now possessed a total of four hundred thousand Divine Source Stones!

This could absolutely be considered an extrely generous amount.

Chu Feng could not help but sigh inwardly.

As expected of the royal family.

With a single move, they could produce resources equivalent to the foundation of an entire province!

The tenth-rank spiritual dicines were also extrely important for Chu Feng.

They were all cultivation resources.

They could increase Chu Feng’s realm and also help him cultivate the Star Lodges Diagram Record.

Chu Feng accepted the silver bracelet and glanced inside.

Two hundred thousand Divine Source Stones lay quietly within.

In addition, there were five thumb-sized fruits glowing with faint green light and emitting a soft humming sound.

Those were the tenth-rank spiritual dicines.

Chu Feng looked slightly surprised as he recognized their origin.

They were Bi-Shen Fruits.

A very precious spiritual dicine of the Great Chu royal family, produced by a ten-thousand-year-old treasure tree.

It only bore fruit once every hundred years, and each ti it produced rely a few dozen fruits.

Yet this ti, Chu Feng had been given five of them at once. It clearly showed how much importance they placed on him.

A thought flashed through Chu Feng’s mind.

With these resources, once he finished cultivating, his strength would certainly increase dramatically again!

At this mont, Consort Yu slowly spoke again.

“However, aside from the rewards His Majesty has given you…”

“This palace also has sothing to give you.”
