ediately, or you will be killed!" the leading man said coldly."Click! Click!"Over a hundred rifles being cocked echoed through the silence, and everyone seemed to smell the pungent scent of gunpowder....King Xue's anger caused the entire city of King Xue to seem enveloped in flames.

Though separated by a phone call, Xue Yuanji's whole body stiffened, fear gripping him to the core.

Xue Wang had three sons. The eldest was a fool, which meant that only Xue Yuanji and Xue Yuanba were eligible to compete for the position of heir to Xue Wang's throne.

From a young age, the two of them understood this principle, so they had been at odds since childhood.

Privately, the two were constantly making small gestures towards each other. King Xue couldn't possibly be unaware of this, but he never mentioned it.

The royal family is cruel, and only through open and secret struggles can one hone a true heir worthy of inheriting the throne.

You can argue with each other, but you shouldn't harm one another.

"Father, calm your anger!"

Xue Yuanyi hurriedly said: "The reason why I didn't dare to tell you about this is..."

"I... I haven't been able to avenge your third brother because the murderer is still alive. I have no face to report back to you!"

But rest assured, I will make the murderer pay. I will ensure he suffers a fate worse than death, paying the heaviest price possible.

Xue Wang let out a cold snort: "You mean, you know who the murderer is"

Xue Yuanyi hurriedly said: "I know, he is a powerful person who retired from the Northern Border. He is very strong, even I almost died at his hands."

When Xue Wang heard about the North, his expression changed slightly, but he quickly returned to normal.

"You said he's from the North"

King Xue asked again.

Xue Yuangji said, "Father, I am very certain that about everything concerning him, I have already investigated it thoroughly. Five years ago, he had just entered the Northern Territory, but now..."

He may seem weak, but he possesses great strength.

Even the expert, Luochen, whom you had previously assigned to your third younger brother, was not his match.

This time, King Xue was silent and did not press Xue Yuanyi any further. His face was very serious.

Although Luochin is not a member of the Xue family, he is considered a retainer. He ranks within the top three in terms of strength among the Xue family's forces.

Of course, this is just what others see. As for the true strong ones that others can't see, there are still many more.

Even Luo Chen lost, so this young man's status in the Northern Border is probably not small. It is very likely that he is someone who guards the Northern Border Protector.

"Father, this man is powerful, but he has two fatal weaknesses."

Seeing King Xue remained silent, Xue Yuanji hurriedly added, "One is that he is loyal and righteous,"

Anyone around him could potentially become a burden.

"Another point is, Yancy Group was the only thought his mother left him in this world. The Yancy Group is very important to him. Now, I have started to suppress the Yancy Group using the Xue family's power."

"However, the power I can use is not enough. Whether or not I can defeat the Yanchen Group remains to be seen."

The meaning of this sentence is very clear. This is wanting King Xue to give him enough power.

Xue Wang coldly snorted, "Immediately stop the pressure on Yancheng Group. Do not provoke him again until his identity is confirmed."

"Don't forget, what was my mission for you to go to Yan Du"

Upon hearing King Xue's words, Xue Yuanyi immediately panicked: "Father, my third younger brother..."

To die at the hands of this man, and would we just let him go

"Shut up!"

King Xue roared, "How did your third brother die I will send someone to investigate. Before there's evidence proving him the murderer, if you dare to provoke him again, you face the consequences!"

Having said that, King Xue hung up the phone directly.

At this moment, he only felt a surge of blood and energy within him, wishing to rush to Yancheng immediately to investigate the cause of Xue Yuanba's death personally. However, he knew he couldn't.

"Your Majesty King Xue, please accept my condolences!"

An elderly man in plain clothes spoke.

Just now, when Xue Wang called, he already knew everything.

King Xue took a deep breath and then looked at the old man in common clothes, saying, "You go to Yan Du yourself and meet that young man."
