All nine empresses betrayed me, why am I crying after being reborn as a saint?

No one knew how long it had passed, but the ancestor and the others came back, but they didn't catch Cheng Xiaowan.

The old ancestor turned away angrily and let out a long sigh.

"Hasn't the girl been caught yet?"

The emperor said, "Grandfather, I have sent the Imperial Guards to surround the palace. I believe Cheng Xiaowan can't run far."

"There is no need for that. Just use the prince as a sacrifice to our ancestors."

The prince was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, his face extremely pale.

"Old, Old Ancestor, no, I, I haven't lived enough."

He couldn't find any high-sounding excuse to fool the old man, so he just told the truth.

The Queen protected the Prince behind her and said in a panic, "Grandfather, you said you would not use the Prince, why are you breaking your promise?"

The old ancestor said impatiently, "How did I break my promise? I said at the time that if the girl came back, the prince wouldn't need to offer sacrifices to the ancestors, but didn't the girl run away? Don't waste time, they are all your children, can you be fair?"

For him, it doesn't matter who he uses to offer sacrifices to his ancestors. Anyway, at his age, he is actually many generations away from the current Daqian royal family, so there is not much family affection to speak of.

The queen looked at the emperor pitifully, wanting him to go out, but the emperor sighed heavily helplessly.

"Grandmaster, can you wait for another stick of incense? There are many experts in the Imperial Guards. With Cheng Xiaowan's level of cultivation, she won't be able to escape."

The old ancestor said anxiously: "Don't you guys understand what I'm saying? It's not a question of whether she can run away or not, it's that the time is coming soon! The time is coming!"

The old man was so angry that he wanted to jump up and slap everyone in the face. What on earth started? Their Daqian royal family, which was once so decisive and ruthless, has become so fussy.

The emperor and the empress looked at each other. As they had been married for many years, they understood each other's meaning without saying a word, so they both nodded.

The emperor said, "Well, ancestor."

"That's pretty much it."

The old ancestor thought that the two had figured it out, but when they turned around, they were directly hit by the palms of the emperor and the queen and fell into the pool.

The old man spat out a mouthful of blood into the pond with a sweet taste in his mouth. He was so angry that he cursed loudly: "Evil creature! It's your fault that the child you gave birth to is unfilial. It turns out that the roots are rotten. Just wait and see how I deal with you when I come up!"

Given the Emperor and the Empress's abilities, the damage to him was not that great, but the insult was extremely great. If it hadn't been for a sneak attack, he would never have been hurt by the Emperor and the Empress.

The queen sneered and said, "Old Ancestor, do you want to kill us two after you come up? But Old Ancestor, have you forgotten something?"

"Forget, forget what?"

The old ancestor suddenly felt something was wrong. As he was recalling, the roar of the dragon behind him reminded him, yes! He also had a mysterious ice body. Now that his blood had flowed into the pool, the water dragon would definitely take him as a sacrifice!

He couldn't help but feel a chill on his back when he thought of this, but before he could react, the water dragon bit him and the body was separated in an instant.

Poor old ancestor, he lived for so many years, and he probably never dreamed that he would die at the hands of his own people.

This is really interesting. As soon as the ancestor died, the dragon vein that had been depleted of spiritual energy by Chen Yuan suddenly regained its vitality, and the spiritual energy was even several times stronger than before.

This made Chen Yuan in the dark stunned. My goodness, his ancestor had boundless magical powers.

Although this exclamation is a joke, it is actually not wrong.

The strength of the sacrifice will indeed affect the effect. If it is Cheng Xiaowan, the effect will be average.

But the ancestor is different. This guy has lived for thousands of years and has been around since the Daqian royal family. His strength is so terrifying that Chen Yuan is not sure he can kill him.

It's unacceptable to use such an old monster as a sacrifice to the heaven, but it can also be regarded as karma. If the ancestor had not taken so many Daqian people to sacrifice to the ancestors before, he would have died of old age long ago. Now it can be regarded as his repayment to the Daqian royal family.

After killing the ancestor, the queen collapsed on the ground in fear. She looked at her hands in disbelief and shed tears.

"Oh my god, I actually killed the ancestor..."

This time she was not acting, but she was frightened rather than feeling guilty. After all, she didn't even feel guilty about killing her own daughter, so how could she feel guilty about killing the old monster, the ancestor?

The prince was stunned for a long time, then he grabbed the emperor's sleeve and shook it wildly.

"Great! Father, if he dies, I won't have to die."

The emperor threw away the prince's sleeves, glared at him and shouted angrily, "You bastard! The ancestor worked hard to help the Daqian royal family ascend to heaven. How dare you laugh like that?"

Wow, really wow, no wonder he and the queen are a family, these two have been so hypocritical and so acting for the whole time.

The prince suppressed his laughter and said, "Yes, we should give our ancestor a grand funeral."

The emperor shook his head and said, "No! If the enemy knew that the ancestor was dead, they would surely launch a massive attack on Daqian. We must keep the death a secret. Not only can the ancestor not be buried in a grand ceremony, but he cannot even be buried in the imperial mausoleum."

Chen Yuan was stunned in the dark. This old ancestor is not worth it. Does this mean that they can't let the outside world know that the ancestor is dead, so they just found a random place to bury him?

Haha, only the world in which the ancestor was injured was achieved.

"That's right." The Queen said, "Since there is no need for sacrifice, there is no need to hunt down Wan'er. Let's just let her go."

It seems that she still has some conscience. At least, she doesn't want to kill her own flesh and blood unless it is absolutely necessary.

However, the prince refused to do it after hearing this.

"Mother, we can't let her go. That bitch wanted to kill me. It would be a relief for her to die easily. If I catch her, cutting her into pieces would be too light.

I will send her to Tatan (the eunuchs' residence) and let those non-man things love that bitch well. "

After hearing this, Chen Yuan couldn't help but give the prince a thumbs up.

My goodness, if this prince is really allowed to register, he will definitely be a tyrant, and the kind of tyrant who is particularly good at playing games. This guy is really a talent.

Oh, Cheng Xiaowan, ah Cheng Xiaowan, what a silly woman. He had only asked Cheng Xiaowan to do some rough work before, but Cheng Xiaowan hated him. But this good royal brother whom Cheng Xiaowan thinks of herself wants to treat Cheng Xiaowan like this. I wonder how Cheng Xiaowan would feel if she heard it?

The queen glared at the prince and said, "Although Xiaowan is unruly and I don't like her very much, she is your sister after all. Just let her go."

The emperor shook his head and said, "No, we must not let her go. If she talks nonsense outside, it will ruin the reputation of our Daqian royal family."

For him, the reputation of the royal family is more important than the life or death of a daughter he is not familiar with.
