C4686 The Struggle for the Throne!

0"Then how long can the Divine Emperor last?"    

    

Chen Xiao asked.    

    

"This... at most, it will be thirty to fifty years." The Third Prince hesitated for a moment, but he still lowered his voice and replied.    

    

There were only a few people who knew so much about the Divine Emperor and dared to make wild guesses about the Divine Emperor's lifespan.    

    

In the vast Divine Capital, it seemed calm on the surface, but it was actually filled with raging waves. Everyone was waiting for an opportunity.    

    

Once the Divine Emperor died of old age, those who were originally well-behaved and obedient would definitely change their minds. This was a fight for the throne of the Divine Emperor, and no one would let it go.    

    

As long as they took the throne, they would have to live in the shadow of the new Divine Emperor for the next ten thousand years. For such an opportunity, there were definitely many people who wanted to take the risk and fight for it.    

    

And this was what the Third Prince was most worried about.    

    

In the current Wushuang Dynasty, there were three people who were qualified to fight for the throne: the First Prince, the Third Prince, and the Seventh Prince.    

    

Ever since the incident in the secret realm, the First Prince's power had weakened, and the Third Prince and the Seventh Prince had become the most popular candidates.    

    

"Thirty to fifty years? I know."    

    

Hearing that, Chen Xiao fell into deep thought.    

    

Thirty to fifty years was indeed a long time for mortals, but for cultivators, it was only a snap of a finger. It could pass in a single seclusion.    

    

Obviously, there was not much time left for him.    

    

Seeing this, the Third Prince became a bit anxious and quickly asked, "Brother Chen Xiao, what are your plans?"    

    

Chen Xiao raised his eyebrows and said indifferently, "What, are you so afraid of losing?"    

    

"I, ah, I always feel uneasy and uncertain." The Third Prince sighed.    

    

Anyone would feel uneasy and anxious when faced with this kind of thing, and the Third Prince was no exception.    

    

Although he had Chen Xiao's help and had the greatest grasp, Yi Tianren was standing behind the Seventh Prince, and the entire Immortal Weapon Sect was standing behind him.    

    

If Li Zhan was added, the result would be hard to predict.    

    

Once another force interfered, it would be very troublesome. At that time, he might not even be able to protect himself.    

    

Chen Xiao saw through the Third Prince's thoughts and said indifferently, "Are you worried that the Immortal Weapon Sect will interfere in secret?"    

    

The Third Prince nodded and said, "Yes, if it's just Yi Tianren, I can deal with it. But if the Immortal Weapon Sect interferes directly, it will be dangerous."    

    

Chen Xiao's face darkened slightly. After thinking for a while, he said, "No worries, I have a bit of friendship with the Immortal Weapon Sect. Generally speaking, they won't easily interfere, and Yi Tianren can only represent the Yi Clan, so there aren't many people that can be called."    

    

"Really?" When the Third Prince heard this, he finally heaved a sigh of relief.    

    

Chen Xiao said expressionlessly, "This is simple. I will send a message talisman to the Immortal Weapon Sect and ask about it."    

    

"That's great," the Third Prince said.    

    

"Yes."    

    

Chen Xiao took out a transmission talisman and wrote a few lines of words before sending it to the Immortal Weapon Sect.    

    

He was quite familiar with Mu Hu from the Immortal Weapon Sect, so it was very simple for him to send a transmission talisman to inquire about the matter.    

    

However, it would probably take some time for him to get a reply.    

    

The Third Prince relaxed a lot and said, "As long as the Immortal Weapon Sect doesn't interfere with the matters of our dynasty, we can still resolve it."    

    

"Yes, the superpowers have agreed to not interfere with the secular affairs. Otherwise, the world would have been in chaos a long time ago."    

    

Chen Xiao said indifferently.    

    

The Third Prince said with a gloomy expression, "Although that's the case, I'm afraid no one can guarantee that it won't happen. What I'm most worried about is that once Father passes away, the great dynasty will fall apart. Just thinking about that result is too scary."    

    

Chen Xiao's worries were reasonable. Such a situation was very likely to happen.    

    

Such a thing was not uncommon in history, so it was not strange at all. A person's greed was limitless. If one wanted to resist this power, they could only rely on a stronger power.    

    

Chen Xiao said coldly with an expressionless face, "So, you have to stop all of this from happening. If Li Zhan and Yi Tianren's ambitions succeed, the consequences will be unimaginable."    

    

"I..."    

    

The Third Prince started to worry. After all, his strength was limited. Even if he added Chen Xiao, he didn't have the confidence to win.    

    

This battle was destined to be incomparably tragic.    

    

Chen Xiao stepped forward and patted his shoulder, consoling him, "Go do it. Do what you can. It's better to fight than to do nothing."    

    

Hearing this, the Third Prince's eyes became more determined, and he said, "Yes, I understand."    

    

"If you need me to do anything, feel free to ask. I will stay in the underground secret room and cultivate."    

    

Chen Xiao said coldly. These words were enough to calm the Third Prince down, giving him more confidence.    

    

When the Third Prince heard this, he was overjoyed, "Yes, I know what to do."    

    

Taking advantage of the fact that the God Emperor was still here and with Chen Xiao's help, he had to try his best to rope in more people to his side.    

    

Even if he didn't rely on him, he definitely couldn't rely on the Seventh Prince and Li Zhan. Only then would the Third Prince have some chances of winning.    

    

"Go."    

    

"Mm."    

    

The Third Prince's expression was solemn as he turned around and left. There were still many things that he had to personally do.    

    

On the spot, Chen Xiao's expression was gloomy as he said in a low voice, "So, only thirty to fifty years are left? It seems that I won't be able to wait much longer. Li Zhan, hmph."    

    

"I can sense that there are many powerful auras hiding outside the city. Once you appear, they will attack in unison. There is not much time left for you."    

    

Xi Luo said coldly.    

    

Chen Xiao nodded and said, "That's right, so we have to settle this matter before the Divine Emperor passes away. Otherwise, once the Divine Emperor passes away, the Divine Dynasty will be in chaos. At that time, it will be very unfavorable for me."    

    

"So, what do you plan to do?" Xi Luo asked.    

    

Chen Xiao thought for a moment and said, "It seems that I will have to trouble Brother Zi Jing and Second Brother. If the two of them come to help, my chances will be even greater."    

    

"Mm, this idea is not bad. Let's do it this way." Xi Luo laughed.    

    

Chen Xiao immediately took out a transmission talisman and sent it to Purple Cloud City.    

    

After doing all this, he felt a little relieved. His eyes turned cold and said, "Li Zhan, since you want to show your cards, then let's see who can laugh last. Hmph."    

    

Then, he walked back into the secret room and continued to cultivate.    

    

At the same time, outside the Divine Capital, there was a towering mountain peak that pierced into the clouds. There was a beautiful manor built on it.    

    

Li Zhan sat in the pavilion and drank with Yi Tianren, chatting happily.    

    

At this time, a Tribulation Transcender quickly rushed over and reported, "Your Highness, the Third Prince's Mansion did not have any unusual movements. Chen Xiao has not been seen. He should still be in the mansion and not coming out."    

    

Li Zhan casually waved his hand and said, "Got it. What else?"    

    

"Also, the Third Prince has been moving around frequently recently. He has met with the heads of the various families and forces in the Divine Capital. They have been talking about it and are definitely trying to rope him in. Your Highness, what should we do?"    

    

His subordinate replied.    

    

It was obvious that Li Zhan was keeping a close watch on the Third Prince. He did not let down his guard even for a single moment.
