Gong Shouze touched his hair at last, "Okay, my lord, please sit on your throne and accept the worship."

Gong Hongxu was supported up by Qiu Bing, with a tense expression all the time, and walked slowly towards the golden seat directly in front of him.

He turned around and sat down slowly.

After looking around the huge square, his eyes finally fell on Gong Shouze.

"Pay homage to the new king!"

Gong Shouze shouted, followed by a uniform "shua" sound in the square, and everyone bowed at the same time to salute.

He also bent down slowly.

Gong Hongxu's pupils shrank, looking at his father who once made him fearful and awed, bowing his head in front of him, he didn't have any thoughts other than sadness.

After the ceremony, as the new head of the country, he had to face numerous officials and visits from foreign official media.

Therefore, he could only watch helplessly as Gong Shouze, supported by the guards, turned around and left.

Father... are you okay?

Gong Hongxu couldn't help being worried, but he couldn't show it in front of outsiders, he could only use a smile to cover up his restlessness.

After finally dealing with all the official duties, he immediately took off the crown and handed it to Qiu Bing for safekeeping, then hurried to his father's bedroom.

As soon as he entered the door, there was a strong smell of blood.

"Father?!"

Gong Hongxu let out a low cry, and looked at Xin Sheng who was coming towards him: "General Xin, my father—"

Xin Sheng shook his head with a heavy expression.

Gong Hongxu's expression changed. At this moment, Shen Mu came over and said to him, "It was Qin Shu and I who forcibly used needles to keep him alive, but now that breath has been exhausted, the blood salamander in his body is gone again. I can't hold it down anymore, it completely devoured the host."

Hearing this, Gong Hongxu flickered and took two steps back.

Barely steadying his body, he gritted his teeth and rushed in again, "Let me see my father for the last time!"

"No." Shen Mu said two words decisively.

Xin Sheng and Xin Zhe also shot at almost the same time to stop him.

Shen Mu's old face was full of seriousness: "Now is the time when the blood in his body is overflowing. Except for Qin Shu and the three of them, no one else can get close."

"..."

Gong Hongxu fell silent, and sat down in the chair dejectedly.

There was a suppressed and painful low growl from inside, it was the father's final struggle against death.

He could hardly bear to hear those voices, and couldn't help lowering his head and covering his ears.

Even with Xin Cheng and Shen Mu by his side, he still couldn't help but shed two tears.

Although his mother died young, at that time he was young and ignorant of the world. Apart from the occasional feeling of missing mother's love for so many years, he didn't have a deep understanding.

But now...he really felt the helplessness and pain of his loved one's imminent death.

The voices in the room came intermittently, and he couldn't do anything, he could only wait here for the result he didn't want to accept.

For him, every minute and every second is suffering.

I don't know how long it took, but finally, everything returned to calm.

The surrounding sounds seemed to disappear in an instant.

In the silence, Gong Hongxu slowly raised his head, staring at the screen that separated the room.

Shen Mu, father and son of the Xin family also looked over at the same time.

Footsteps came from inside.

Qin Shu, Chu Linchen and Luo Xueyi came out.

Gong Hongxu blinked suddenly, stood up with a slam, and asked with a faint expectation: "My father..."
