Chapter 1889: Chapter 187 Your Highness Is Coming Out

Jacob Winchester truly felt overwhelmed with astonishment; he had never anticipated such a turn of events.

He had always been rather proud of himself, believing that he had played his cards right and could potentially ascend to the throne. But once inside, he realized his schemes were a joke in the face of Great Power, and as each prince revealed their strength, and with the intervention of the major sects, he suddenly realized he was out of his depth.

The course of events had completely defied his expectations. The thought that he was merely a Chore Disciple and that the Heavenly Domain Gate was planning to back Prince Alfred was profoundly depressing to him.

Standing here, watching the people from the various Kingston Houses and then looking at the subordinates of his own, Prince Jacob suddenly felt a sense of loss.

"Welcome back, Your Highness."

Everyone came forward to greet him. Naturally, they were excited that their own prince had not perished, which indicated that Prince Jacob’s Mansion was now on the winning side.

"Your Highness, is Prince Samuel still alive?" one of Prince Samuel’s Manor’s people asked.

Glancing at the man from Prince Samuel’s Manor, Jacob shook his head and said, "The prince is dead, you all should prepare yourselves."

He truly wasn’t in the mood to say much more. To the external world, he might seem exalted, but he knew the reality—that he was just too weak.

Seeing a once arrogant Prince Jacob reduced to this state, everyone’s expression shifted. Such a change in demeanor suggested that something significant had happened, even though they had no idea what could have transpired inside.

When the people from Prince Samuel’s Manor confirmed that their prince was indeed dead, their faces turned ugly. They knew it had to be true, and now they faced a tragedy; they needed to think about their future.

Suddenly, the atmosphere became stifling.

Then, a burst of light flashed, and they saw Prince Alexander standing there.

It was Prince Alexander!

Prince Alexander himself couldn’t help but feel sentimental, though he had never really believed he had a chance to Struggle for the throne. Nonetheless, he was one of the princes with considerable strength. However, now he had come to realize that he, too, was truly insignificant.

When he thought about the other princes’ restraint and the intervention of the sects, he actually felt a sense of relief and no longer harbored thoughts of competing for the throne.

Having calmed his mind, Prince Alexander was also able to face head-on whatever had happened.

"Your Highness, do you know how our lord is managing?"

One of the Fifth Prince Manor’s subordinates asked Prince Alexander.

Shaking his head, Prince Alexander replied, "He’s dead, alongside Prince Samuel and Frank."

"Impossible! Our Ninth Highness comes from a great background. He’s a disciple of the Beast Sect with a cultivation that has reached a high level, at least at the Thirty-Star Rank. How could he possibly be dead?"

At this point, the trusted follower from Prince Alfred’s Mansion revealed this information.

What?

When they heard that Ninth Prince was a disciple of the Beast Sect, everyone’s faces changed.

At that moment, a woman inquired, "Prince Alexander, how did Ninth Prince die?"

"Greetings, my lady."

Seeing that it was the Ninth Prince’s mother herself who had come, Prince Alexander did not dare to neglect her, offering a bow with a clasped fist.

"There’s no need for formalities, just tell me what happened."

"I’m not entirely clear on the matter myself. After the deaths of several princes, especially Ninth Brother, disciples from the three major sects arrived. Their deaths were not caused by us, the living; they were slain by an unknown force. The Beast Sect suspected Eighth Brother Sebastian Winchester and took him away."

"Sebastian Winchester?"

Only then did everyone become aware that there was another living prince named Sebastian Winchester.

Is the Eighth Prince alive?

"Was it Eighth Brother who did it?"

"It’s not very clear. The sects are handling it. Sebastian Winchester is rumored to have become a Twenty-one-Star Level cultivator, so killing a few of them might not be too difficult. As for the specifics, I’m not too clear, but he has secretly joined the Spiritual Spring Sect and is said to be an official disciple."

Prince Alexander shared what he knew.

At this point, everyone from the various Kingston Houses was assessing the situation regarding the living princes. As things stood now, they realized that there was just one living prince yet to reveal himself. Since Eighth Prince had been taken away by the Beast Sect, he might be considered alive, but whether he would live long remained uncertain.

Who could the remaining living prince be?

"It must be our Third Highness who is still alive!" someone from the Third Prince Manor suggested, looking to Prince Alexander for confirmation.

All eyes turned to Prince Alexander.

Shaking his head, Prince Alexander said, "Third Brother, along with Edward, ambushed Harvey."

He paused for a moment.

It was the first time anyone had heard news about Prince Harvey, and they all widened their eyes in anticipation.

"Haha, surely our Third Highness has killed Fourteenth Highness!"

The people from Third Prince Manor stated with confidence.

Sophia Baker also now turned her gaze to Prince Alexander.

At this moment, those from Prince Harvey’s Mansion internally sighed. Prince Harvey was likely not a man of the sects, and now that the sects had intervened, the chances of him being alive were slim.

Prince Alexander’s expression became complicated; his heart was filled with a multitude of emotions. Sighing, he said, "In the end, Harvey killed Third Brother and Edward."

"What?"

Although they had been aware of some things, they had never truly believed them. Now that Prince Alexander had confirmed it, their last hopes were dashed.

"Prince Harvey is alive?" someone asked.

Prince Alexander replied, "I am now a Chore Disciple for the Beast Sect, and Harvey is an official disciple of the sect!"

Having said this, Prince Alexander went to sit in the Beast-drawn Carriage.

A while after his carriage drove off, everyone still seemed to be coming to their senses.

"What?"

"Winfield Winchester has become an official disciple of the Beast Sect!"

"Look, look, someone is coming out!"

They all turned towards the place of dazzling light and saw a young man in prince’s attire appearing before them.

"It’s Prince Harvey!"

"It really is Prince Harvey!"

The dust had settled!

When the circumstances had unfolded to this point, all the various thoughts and speculations in their minds vanished. Seven princes had appeared one by one; aside from Prince Sebastian, who had been taken by the Beast Sect, six living princes had now emerged.

Watching Prince Harvey step out from the portal, everyone was filled with a dreamlike disbelief, unable to fathom such an outcome. Princes who had not been favored showed formidable Power, whereas those who had been considered strong contenders were now dead. What in the world had happened?
