The Adventures Of The Young Master

Chapter 458 - Battle For The Throne

The Second Prince felt this presence and opened his eyes. He also knew who exactly has come for him. He looked at the man in front of him and said, "Eldest Brother, I didn't expect to see you here."

His feigning of ignorance wasn't bought by the first prince. He sneered and answered, "Cut your fakery. I know you are aware of my arrival, so why are you acting up like you are surprised?"

The second prince's eyes flashed with a glint and looked at his eldest brother. Usually, this man was dumb and all muscles. However, it looked like he was using his head this time. He still smiled and welcomed his brother with words, "So what now?"

The second prince was waiting for the first prince's words. It would be the deciding factor whether they would fight to the death or not.

"Shawn, listen to me." The first prince called the second prince his last name which was unusual and said, "Give up the throne. You know that I am basically the rightful owner of that. If you give up the throne now, we will not have to do this. You know how much our Father Emperor loves you, so this is too much of a risk."

The first prince paused for a moment and continued, "If you want power, I can give you that when I succeeded the throne. I can give you half or 3/4 of the total kingdoms under your law and jurisdiction. I can even give you women, a lots of women for you to have a harem. Anything you want, I'll fulfill it."

It was the first prince's real thoughts. As long as he became the emperor, he wouldn't make it difficult for his second brother though he was jealous of him. After all, all the hatreds and jealousy would be gone once he grabbed the throne on his own.

The second prince thought of this offer for a short while and shook his head, "Eldest Brother, I'm afraid I can't live up to your expectations, then. I want the throne. Our Father Emperor gives us fair share of chance to fight for it. So since I have the chance, I will use it."

"So you're really going against me?" The first prince's voice turned cold and asked. He expected this response, but hearing it left a bitter taste in his mouth.

"Indeed, Eldest Brother." The second prince said with full of seriousness, "I am going against you."

"Since you've chosen this path, don't blame me for being ruthless." The first prince equipped his thin blade and swung it, "Since this is the case, then let's settle this with a death match."

"If that's what you wish, Eldest Brother." The second prince was still calm and collected even though the first prince was leaking with a very thick killing intent.

"This cocky attitude of yours, like the world is on your palm, I hate it the most!" The first prince dashed towards the second prince with a terrifying speed.

"Clang! Clang!" The second prince released his thin blade too and clashed with the first prince.

"Boom! Boom!" The clash made the whole forest tremble in ferocity and viciousness. The heaven and earth almost collided with each other as if they were going to tear each apart.

"Slash!" The first prince slashed three times and sword arcs appeared out of nowhere. He knew that confrontal attacks won't work, so he chose to do the range attacks.

"Hmph!" The second prince clicked his tongue, gathering a force to become his shield. The force was made of sword dao that came from his blade. It spun for a split second and became steady and sturdy like it wouldn't be shaken for millions of years.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The three slashes didn't pass through the force created by the second prince and appeared like a fragile glass, easy to break.

"Activate!" It was now the second prince's turn to attack. He lifted his blade and released a capable light. It could cleanse any soul and burn demons to death.

"As if!" The first prince knew what the other party was trying to do. He immediately covered himself with heavenly armors that were personally tailored for him by their best blacksmiths.

"Crack! Crack!" The power of light was destructive. It made cracks all around the tough armor of the first prince. This armor boasted its highest defense in the whole realm, yet this light could actually crack it.

It wasn't surprising, though. After all, the power was called Heaven's Oblivion, one of the best attack forms of their Prime family. It boasted its high offensive and cleansing power. However, not all of the family members were capable of learning this. For the record, only the second prince, the princess and their farther emperor had learned this.

"You thinking I will come here unprepared?" The first prince sneered, now that he completely obliterated one of the most powerful trump cards of the second prince.

Although the first prince was a 10 crowns while the second prince was 11 crowns, the former had already his treasure palace, which made him capable of contending against the latter.

Treasure palaces were vital things that zeniths need to possess when they stepped up on the 10 crowns to 13 crowns. However, it was easier than done. Acquiring this palace needed a lot of requirements to meet, thus it wss very complicated.

As the result, not all top zeniths possessed this. In fact, there was a record that a 13 crowns zenith didn't have a treasure palace. Eventually, that person died because of the multiverse's punishment. After all, having the treasure palace meant that you were recognized by the whole multiverse.

Although the second prince was more talented than the first prince, it wasn't enough to get the treasure palace. Thus, although he was a crown higher than his eldest brother, their strength was just almost even.

"Open!" The first prince smiled after seeing the complicated expression of the second prince. He immediately activated his treasure palace to end this battle.
