Chapter 245 Conquer Dark Rigel Kingdom (Last)
In the bustling pub known as the "Dragon's Roar," the air was filled with laughter and cups clinking. Dressed in vibrant robes and adorned with intricate accessories, cultivators from various sects mingled together, their eyes gleaming with curiosity and excitement. The scent of fragrant tea and aged spirits wafted through the air, enveloping the patrons in a warm and inviting atmosphere.
At a round table nestled in a dimly lit corner, a group of ordinary cultivators huddled together, and their faces grave with concern. Chen Xiaohu, a young swordsman with a determined gaze, gestured with his cup as he spoke, his voice resonating with a hint of sorrow.
"Did you hear about the 4th Prince, Wu Wan?" Chen Xiaohu said, his tone laced with a tinge of disbelief. "His lifeless body was found hanging at the city gate this morning."
Zhang Lei, a knowledgeable scholar dressed in flowing robes, leaned forward, his eyes narrowing in contemplation. "Such a tragic fate," he murmured. "The 4th Prince was known for his ambition and mastery of the sword. How could he meet such an end?"
Hua Lan, a petite and agile female cultivator with twin daggers strapped to her waist, chimed in, her voice tinged with suspicion. "Does anyone know who could have done it? Could it have been another prince?"
"Shut up," Zhang Lei suddenly gave Hua Lan a dangerous gaze.
Hua Lan jumped in surprise as she realized what she had said. Seeing the bustling environment, she looked around and realized no one had heard her. She breathed a sigh of relief and then lowered her head. "I'm sorry."
"It's okay," Chen Xiaohu reassured her with a glance. He sighed, feeling the sadness of being unable to repay the life-saving favor to the 4th Prince.
"Oh, did the 4th Prince genuinely have some people supporting him?" Ye Kai, who was also in the pub, overheard Hua Lan and the others and noticed their genuine sadness over the 4th Prince's death.
"Well, the 4th Prince was kind and gentle, but when his mother died two years ago, he became ruthless and selfish," the system spoke.
"Hm, well, it doesn't concern me much. I think I should claim my prize now," Ye Kai smiled, and no one noticed when he disappeared from the place, and when unnoticed by the pub owner, he slipped a hundred gold coins into his pocket.

"You didn't have to choose such a way to tell me you killed him. Do you even have an idea of how much trouble you've caused for the royal family?" Wu Bai said with the same smile Ye Kai had seen when they first met.
Ye Kai wondered if Wu Bai had any other facial expressions besides that constant smile. But it didn't matter much as he leaned back in his chair and spoke, "Isn't this better? Now that the 4th Prince is gone, there is no one left to compete with you. Now I just have to kill the king, and then who will be the next king? The answer is you."
"Do you have the power to kill the king? Well, even if you do, don't kill him yet. I still need four people to support me. As long as those four support me to become king, then I will personally kill my father and claim the crown," Wu Bai spoke with a smile.
Ye Kai contemplated whether he should go back and kill his father. Then he shook his head, thinking, 'My father is just a little ant, without any power or anything. There is no meaning in killing him.'
"Still, I'm amazed. When I was a child, I didn't think that killing brothers or father in the royal family was so normal," Ye Kai said.
"I'm not a cold-blooded person, but my father is someone who needs to die for this kingdom. And if someone stands in my way of killing him, then I have no choice but to kill him, like my brother who stood in my way. But my other brothers don't have the qualifications to oppose me, so I will not harm them and will give them a good position in the family," Wu Bai spoke with the same smile.
"Then what about Swan? Yi Qing? Your mother and your seven sisters? Your mother and seven sisters are your biological family, so why promise to give them to me?"
"I don't know Swan very well, but from what I've heard, she is an arrogant woman who has killed many innocent people just because they got in her way. She is cruel, and the same goes for Yi Qing. She is arrogant and never helps anyone, only asking us for herbs and other treasures so she can advance in her alchemy. My mother and sisters practice evil arts, which involve killing lots of innocent people. So, of course, I hate them. What I want is for the people of this kingdom to live happily, and these nine women are not going to let me achieve that. So why should I care about them? In fact, I was personally going to kill them, but since you want them, then take them. But give me a month's time; I have to capture them first."
"Oh, I'm shocked to hear this," Ye Kai calmly nodded. He already knew about that the seven pearls of the kingdom and queen practiced evil arts. Because of his mission to make them his sex slave, he needed to know about them, and when he asked the system about them, the system told him that they were practicing evil arts.
"You already knew about this," Wu Bai spoke with a smile, "Well, given you killed 4th prince, came here in castle without alerting anyone, and how you can disappear out of thin air, I guess without me, you can easily obtain them, well then can I ask what your going to do with them?"
"Oh, at first I was only thinking of making them my sex slave, but now I think then I should also train them and make them strongest, as to have some people by my side who are strong," Ye Kai thought and spoke, "Oh, but don't worry, i dislike blood most in my life, so you don't have to worry that your mothst and sisters practice evil arts again in thier life."
Wu Bai still had a smile, and he nodded, not saying anything.
Ye Kai saw this, and he thought about what he should do to change even a tiny expression change in Wu Bai's face.
Even telling him that he was going to make all sisters and mother his sex slave didn't change any of his expression.
Does he have a stone face?
