Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws
chapter-2451

The Slaughter King bolted up and attacked suddenly. The Crown Prince was shocked and in disbelief. "You've been hiding your power all along? Why?" Why? Why would the Slaughter King hide his powers from them?

Why lure them to attack him and usurp the throne?

"Child, I do not need to explain it to you," the Slaughter King said coldly.

He then attacked again, and the Crown Prince blocked it with his body.

As an Ultimate Monarch, the Crown Prince was exceptionally powerful, and the clash with the Slaughter King was fierce. They exchanged attacks swiftly, and the powers they displayed were astonishing. "Bang! Bang!"

The whole palace collapsed because of their fight.

After a few rounds, the Crown Prince was blasted away with blood spewing from his mouth.

The Slaughter King seized the chance and grabbed his head. A powerful suction force immediately appeared from his palm, consuming the Crown Prince's cultivation, flesh, and blood. The scene left the others mortified. At the same time, they seemed to understand the situation better.

"Are you absorbing our cultivation and Slaughter Core to free yourself from the Heavenly Deterioration?" Horrified, the third prince said, "That's the Blood Eating Technique!" "Oh? You know about the Blood Eating Technique?"

The Slaughter King was surprised. "I've seen it in the library. The Blood Eating Technique allows one to consume a kin's blood and bones to recover one's vitality. So this is why you lured us to start a rebellion! It's an excuse to absorb our powers and bodies so that you can recover to your prime!" The third prince was a smart one for figuring out the Slaughter King's true intention. If the Slaughter King simply consumed his own blood, he would be labeled as a cruel tyrant, and it would affect his reputation. Therefore, he plotted and lured the Crown Prince to rebel against him with his brothers and sisters. In order to fuel the Crown Prince's confidence, he even put the Crown Prince in charge of the army. Once the Crown Prince started a rebellion, the Slaughter King would be able to righteously consume him as punishment for treason. That way, the Slaughter King could strengthen his position and recover to his peak form without hurting his reputation.

He practically killed a few birds with one stone. The Slaughter King was a smart schemer and a cruel ruler. Not even a tiger would attack its own cub, but the Slaughter King planned all that just so he could absorb his own blood. "You're pretty smart, but when you started this rebellion, your fate was already sealed," the Slaughter King said with a grin. He grew stronger after absorbing the Crown Prince.

As his white hair turned black and his wrinkled skin grew luscious, he gradually recovered into a healthy middle-aged man.

"Father, you're cruel!"

The third prince was saddened and terrified. He was saddened to find out that he and his peers were merely tools for the Slaughter King to recover; he was terrified because he and his peers were about to die! They were no match for the Slaughter King.

"Father, please let me go!"

"Father, I won't do it anymore! Please let us go! It was all the eldest brother's and the third brother's idea! We have nothing to do with it!"

"Father, I'm your favorite daughter! Don't kill me!" "You old shameless geezer! How are you going to face the people of the kingdom if this gets out?" All the princes and princesses revealed their true nature before death.

Some begged, some asked for mercy, and some criticized the Slaughter King.

No matter what they said, they could not change the Slaughter King's mind.

"How did I produce children as useless as you? Die!" The Slaughter King attacked once again, and the Slaughter Daoist law erupted.

Soon, all the princes and princesses were murdered. "Great! This is a great show indeed!"

At that moment, Chu Kuangren and Liu Tianxue descended from the sky.

He applauded as he descended, but as for Liu Tianxue, she was horrified and in disbelief. She could not wrap her head around the situation. She looked at the Slaughter King and had no idea who the man really was.

"Father, they were all your children!" Liu Tianxue shouted.

The Slaughter King took a deep breath and said, "But they tried to usurp the throne. That's high treason, punishable by death. I'm doing this for you. If I don't kill them, they will be in the way when you ascend to the throne in the future."

He sounded sincere, but it sent chills down Liu Tianxue's spine. "Father, how can you make it sound so lightly? It's like you killed them for me."

"Tianxue, come over here. From now on, you are the second in command of the kingdom. I will teach you how to rule," the Slaughter King said in a heartwarming tone.

However, Liu Tianxue did not move. She was not stupid. She knew the Slaughter King might be just acting in front of her.

If he could kill that many princes and princesses, he could also kill her in the blink of an eye. "Tianxue, are you trying to turn against me as well?" the Slaughter King bellowed upon noticing Liu Tianxue's silence.

"What if she is?" Chu Kuangren spoke. With his hands behind his back, he said, "The Slaughter King has lost himself in cultivation and turned cruel, slaughtering his own blood and flesh. For the sake of the people and the kingdom, the princess of the Slaughter Kingdom, Liu Tianxue, decided to take him down. She then ascends to the throne… What do you think about this?" Chu Kuangren looked toward Liu Tianxue.

Suddenly, the Slaughter King's expression turned grim.

He understood that Chu Kuangren wanted to kill him and aid Liu Tianxue in ascending to the throne.

"I think… it's plausible." Liu Tianxue took a deep breath, and her eyes turned cold.

She had combed through her thoughts, and she knew her father would not let her live.

He said he would give her the throne, but it was just an act to trigger the Crown Prince to rebel against him.

The man only cared about his power and throne.

There was no way Liu Tianxue would be the next king, at least not with him alive.

Liu Tianxue's answer infuriated the Slaughter King. "You are turning against me as well? In that case, you shall join your peers!" Then, he threw a charged palm attack at Liu Tianxue.

After consuming the Crown Prince and the others, he had recovered to his prime or maybe higher. He even broke through Unlimited Great Dao in an instant.

It would be easy for him to deal with Liu Tianxue.

Unfortunately, someone stood in his way — Chu Kuangren.

He pointed his sword hand sign and shot a sword qi forward.

When the sword qi and palm energy clashed, it blasted the Slaughter King several meters away.

He glared at Chu Kuangren.

"She's going to be king, and I'm helping her. I can't let you kill her," Chu Kuangren said as he chuckled.

The people of the Slaughter Kingdom were fierce and courageous, so it would be difficult for him to conquer them with force.

The easier way would be to help a new king ascend to the throne — a king that he could control.

With that, he would be able to control the entire kingdom.
