The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor
Chapter 216 - 215: The Last Senior Brother

Chapter 216: Chapter 215: The Last Senior Brother

"Hmm?"

Liu Tianhao, who had already retreated to the side, suddenly felt a murderous intent enveloping him, and his heart instantly skipped a beat.

When he saw Liu Tianyi charging toward him, his expression immediately turned cold.

"Liu Tianyi!"

Liu Tianhao shouted sternly, his eyes carrying a hint of ferocity.

His own second brother was actually trying to kill him!?

"Wen Lin, let’s join forces!" Liu Tianhao knew that he was definitely no match for his second brother at the moment, but there was absolutely no place to escape to; he could only team up with Wen Lin.

"Alright!" Wen Lin and Liu Tianhao stood closely together, their expressions also becoming grave.

Seeing Wen Lin and Liu Tianhao standing together, the faces of the people from the Emperor Immortal Sect all darkened.

"That Wen Lin guy is indeed a spy among spies. It seemed like he was with Huang Nian openly, but he was actually on Liu Tianhao’s side!"

"These guys must have planned this a long time ago. I just remembered the previous fight for the position of Chief Disciple, and Liu Tianhao is the truly terrifying one!" Xiao Zhan’s expression kept changing.

Previously in the Emperor Immortal Sect, when Liu Tianhao and others had first joined the Sect, they challenged Ye Xuan’s capabilities, resulting in a confrontation.

The confrontation was decided by whose disciples won more matches.

Back then, everyone thought Yang Jinchun was the most fearsome.

Looking at it now, Liu Tianhao was the one with the deepest concealment!

If there hadn’t been an incident back then, Liu Tianhao would have at least tied with Yang Jinchun, and only then would further battles have taken place.

Unfortunately, no one expected that at that time, Ye Xuan, along with Tan Qingshan, Zhu Xiaofei, and Xiao Zhan, all stood up.

Because of this, the schemes of Yang Jinchun, Huang Nian, Liu Tianhao, and others all fell through.

Yang Jinchun and Huang Nian are already dead, so there’s no need to mention them.

But this Liu Tianhao, only now revealing himself, is simply too terrifying.

He was hidden too deeply!

"No, if Liu Tianhao and Wen Lin are together, then they are spies, and most likely they are from the Ancient Yun Shang Country, so why would Liu Tianyi attack them?" Tan Qingshan’s brows furrowed deeply.

"Liu Tianyi, Liu Tianhao..." Lv Xiuli murmured, then suddenly narrowed his eyes, whispering lowly, "I’m afraid these two guys are real brothers, but they both come from the royal family of the Ancient Yun Shang Country and probably wanted to fight for the position of the Crown Prince, leading to a fratricidal confrontation."

"He deserves it!" Zhu Xiaofei spoke harshly, "These guys, they all deserve to die, always looking to trouble our Emperor Immortal Sect!"

"Wait until I grow stronger in the future; I’m sure to seek revenge on these guys!"

These words made everyone feel even more somber.

Do they have a future...

Today’s battle might very well be a life-and-death struggle.

While they were feeling downhearted,

Liu Tianyi had already charged toward Liu Tianhao and Wen Lin.

"Pu Chi—"

Just then, a faint sound rang out.

"Uh..." Liu Tianhao only felt a chill under his ribs, and looking down, a thin sword had pierced right through him.

And the hand holding the sword...

Was actually Wen Lin’s!

Liu Tianhao felt dizzy and disbelieving, looking at Wen Lin, "You..."

He couldn’t understand why his ally Wen Lin would strike against him!

But then, Liu Tianhao quickly came to his senses.

Wen Lin had never been one of his people from the start!

With an indifferent face, Wen Lin pulled out the sword and retreated to Liu Tianyi’s side, telling Liu Tianhao, "I have always been a man of the Second Prince."

Liu Tianhao clutched his wound, nearly stumbling to the ground. He let out a wry laugh, his face turning extremely pale. Seeing Liu Tianyi’s mocking face, he felt an overwhelming wave of despair.

He had never imagined that his end would come this way.

He had thought that after this, he could return to the Ancient Yun Shang Country and be truly valued by the Emperor, no longer merely existing as an illegitimate child.

Unfortunately, it was all for naught.

He was ultimately no match for the brothers who had grown up in the Imperial Palace from a young age.

’Perhaps, being in the Emperor Immortal Sect was a better place after all...’

Liu Tianhao did not curse Liu Tianyi and Wen Lin but instead turned his gaze to Ye Xuan, using his remaining strength to shout, "Ye Xuan, for the last time I call you senior brother, kill all these bastards for me!"

This voice, carried by True Qi, resonated across the Golden Pond, and everyone heard his words.

"Senior brother!"

After Liu Tianhao finished shouting, he fell to the ground.

Wen Lin’s sword had passed through his left ribs, piercing directly through his heart.

If not for his being from the Earth Element Realm, he would have died instantly.

Boundless darkness surged in, and Liu Tianhao knew he had truly died this time.

He could not survive.

In his last moments in the human world, he had honestly spoken, calling out to Ye Xuan as "eldest senior brother."

Well, no regrets then.

...

Liu Tianhao collapsed on the ground, his eyes shut, lifeless.

But Liu Tianhao’s words had spread.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, my brother, you’ve been with the Emperor Immortal Sect so long, you’ve turned yourself stupid, hoping Ye Xuan could turn the tables? Wishful thinking," Liu Tianyi said as he looked at Liu Tianhao’s corpse, unable to hold back a sneer.

"Wen Lin, well done this time, there will be a handsome reward later," Liu Tianyi patted Wen Lin’s shoulder.

"It’s all as it should be," Wen Lin bowed.

Bang!

Then, Liu Tianyi smashed Wen Lin’s head with a slap.

Wen Lin instantly fell to the ground, becoming a headless corpse.

Liu Tianyi’s smile faded, his expression turning cold as he muttered, "Though I don’t like Liu Tianhao much, he was still my brother after all. I can kill him, but what are you?"

The sudden scene left people stupefied.

Liu Tianhao was killed by Wen Lin.

Wen Lin was then killed by Liu Tianyi.

"How satisfying!" Zhu Xiaofei laughed among those on the Emperor Immortal Sect side, "Both of these guys were spies, and now that they’re dead, it’s the perfect ending!"

Others did not laugh.

"That last cry of ’eldest senior brother’ from Liu Tianhao was genuine," Tan Qingshan spoke softly.

"What’s genuine or fake?" Zhu Xiaofei was somewhat confused.

"Even though he was a spy, he probably truly saw him as his senior brother. But due to his position, he was forced to betray the Emperor Immortal Sect. It’s just too bad that he died..." Lv Xiuli also sighed.

If Liu Tianhao hadn’t been a spy, he might have been a good senior brother.

Too bad.

There are no ifs.

"What was going on in Liu Tianhao’s head, to think that Ye Xuan could help him seek revenge?" People hiding in the Golden Pond, like Murong Hai, had strange expressions after hearing Liu Tianhao’s last words.

"Ye Xuan is probably unable to save himself, yet help him seek revenge?"

"Besides, Liu Tianhao himself was a spy, why would anyone want to avenge him?"

The others also started whispering quietly.

They did not participate in the battle, but that did not stop them from watching the drama from the sidelines.

At that moment, Ye Xuan was engaged in a fierce battle with the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm expert from Thunder Cloud Mountain.

In the midst of the battle, Ye Xuan also heard Liu Tianhao’s last call.

It did not cause any disturbance in Ye Xuan’s state of mind.

Everyone chooses different paths, and thus, they face different outcomes.

Liu Tianhao, had he revealed his true identity as a spy earlier, Ye Xuan might have considered saving him.

But Liu Tianhao had only revealed his true feelings at the last moment, and by then, it was all too late.

"Hey, it seems like you’re quite popular in the Emperor Immortal Sect. Even the spy from Ancient Yun Shang Country sincerely called you ’eldest senior brother’ and wanted your help in avenging him," the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm expert from Thunder Cloud Mountain mocked while attacking.

Bang, bang, bang ————

Ye Xuan expertly traced every attack from the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm fighter, and then chose whether to dodge or to meet it head-on.

At that moment, hundreds of Dao Patterns on Ye Xuan’s arms were activated.

The patterns covered the forearms of both his arms.

His strength surged tremendously in this battle!

Hearing the mockery from the Thunder Cloud Mountain’s Heavenly Phenomenon Realm expert, Ye Xuan’s expression remained cold as he responded, "Killing you is something I was going to do anyway; avenging him is just incidental."

"Furthermore, let me tell you one more thing..."

"You shouldn’t think about exhausting my True Qi before killing me."

Ye Xuan suddenly displayed a slightly sinister smile.

Whirr —————

The next moment, the Tree God and Chaos Ghost Fang merged into Ye Xuan’s body.

Ye Xuan’s strength skyrocketed in an instant, his right hand transforming into a hand-sword, thrusting out sharply.

"Hmm?" The Heavenly Phenomenon Realm expert from Thunder Cloud Mountain heard Ye Xuan’s words, his expression shifted slightly as a sense of alertness arose.

Seeing Ye Xuan’s hand thrust towards him, he steadied his thoughts, squinting as he remarked, "You little brat, still playing tricks?"
