Chapter 1539: Crown Prince Cangyu
you weren't that quiet just a moment ago" Li Zixuan smiled coldly, clutching a bottle of wine in his hand."I, I..." Liu Fatty was already a little sober, with a layer of cold sweat on his forehead."S...[ ]
Su Changge's expression froze for a moment, then he revealed a smile and said, "Yes, boss... I was just overly nervous."
“None of you need to be nervous. If you're really interested in this fight, you can just sit here, grab some melon seeds and brew a pot of tea, munching while you watch,” Fang Yu smiled faintly. “The situation in this Holy Fruit competition should be quite interesting, indeed worth watching, because I don’t know myself… what will happen.”
Those present certainly didn't have Fang Yu's big heart, they couldn't laugh either.
"Brother Fang... please, be sure to take care of yourself." Huixu said solemnly, "If you need anything, inform us immediately. Even if our strength is weak, we will do our utmost to assist, fearlessly facing death."
"I don't have time to talk to you guys much, I need to go to the scene and feel the atmosphere for myself." Fang Yu said.
"Now, on the scene Are you going to take action directly, Boss!" Su Changge asked in surprise.
"No, I'm just like you guys, watching the fun before taking action. Don't rush things." Fang Yu smiled faintly and said.
Having said that, he turned around, raised his right hand, and opened a portal.
"Whoosh!"
Two seconds later, Fang Yu disappeared into the portal.
The main hall was deathly silent.
Everyone looked at the scene in the light curtain, their faces still pale and grave.
……
Regarding the unusual activity in the Divine Sea Dynasty today, Fang Yu had received news from Cangyu and the Empress long ago.
They have come out today primarily for the sake of the holy fruit.
Gathering the Sacred Fruits... that is their top priority.
At this very moment, above the eastern sea, millions of sea creatures rise to the surface, roaring in unison.
Fang Yu, disguised as Prince Rong Dao using Xuan Ran Qi, has infiltrated the group.
He did not dare to get too close, lest he be recognized by the Sea Emperor.
Even from a distance of hundreds of kilometers, Fang Yu could still feel the majesty emanating from the Sea God Emperor.
This is an aura that those in positions of power throughout history have possessed, even emperors in the secular world... no exception.
This is perhaps what is called the emperor's aura.
"Sitting on the throne, his figure was blurred, but the empress beside him was clearly visible." Fang Yu used his insight to look from afar and said in his heart.
At this moment, the sea is turbulent, with waves constantly surging and rolling.
Between heaven and earth, all is chaos.
"Cangyu, didn't you say you were going to seize the Sacred Fruit Why are you still here standing around Are you sunbathing" Fang Yu waited for a while and asked using his soul mark.
"It must be because the time hasn't come yet...the sacred fruit hasn't appeared yet." Cangyu answered in a trembling voice.
"Wouldn't it be better to wait at the location where the sacred fruit appears What if someone gets there first" Fang Yu questioned, "What if someone beats us to it"
"I don't know either... This must be the father king's intention, no one can understand it." Cangyu said timidly. "If I contact you now...will the father king find out"
"You shouldn't be here. If they had found you, you would be dead by now. There's no way you could still be talking to me." Fang Yu said calmly.
Hearing this, Cang Yu's heart skipped a beat, and she became even more frightened.
"I suggest you stay calm. When things get tough, the more panicked you are, the easier it is to make mistakes," Fang Yu said, "Anyway, it's just death in the end. Why be so afraid"
"I don't want to die..." Cang Yu replied.
"Celestial Jade."
Just as Cangyu and Fangyu were talking, a sudden deep and majestic voice echoed all around.
Upon hearing this voice, Cangyu was struck as if by lightning, her entire body trembling. She immediately lifted her head and looked towards the gigantic throne before her.
The emperor... spoke!
The other princes kneeling around also slightly raised their heads to look in the direction of Cangyu.
As for the Empress standing beside the Emperor, she also turned to look at Cangyu, her eyes calm.
"Father, Father King..." Cang Yu looked at the throne ahead and trembled as he replied.
"Your mother has mentioned you to me several times," the emperor said softly. "She believes you should be heir apparent."
"Do you think...you are qualified to be the crown prince"
As soon as the question was asked, Cang Yu only felt her heart almost burst out of her chest, and her face instantly turned pale!
The emperor's tone was calm yet commanding.
He didn't know the implication behind this question.
How did the emperor want him to answer
If one confidently answers that they are qualified... would the Emperor intervene to test it
If I'm not qualified, then the Emperor and Empress...
Faced with this problem, Cang Yu seemed like there was no appropriate way to respond.
At this moment, silence fell around them.
Many princes bowed their heads, each with a different expression.
The emperor remained silent, and the empress only stared at the jade without uttering a word.
It seemed that the entire royal family was waiting for Cangyu's answer.
“Answer him, if you think I am qualified, then I am. If you think I am not qualified, then I am not. Everything is up to you to decide.” Fang Yu’s voice reached Cang Yu’s ears, “Of course, when you say it, it would be better to replace that ‘you’ with Your Majesty or Father.”
Upon hearing Fang Yu's words, Cang Yu swallowed nervously, took a deep breath, and bravely replied: "If Father thinks I am qualified... then I am qualified. If Father thinks I am not qualified... then I am not qualified... Everything is decided by Father."
Although he spoke a little haltingly, he made himself quite clear.
As soon as these words were spoken, the Empress standing beside the Emperor's side showed a slight change in her eyes.
But the emperor remained silent, uttering no word.
This period of silence was extremely difficult for Cangyu, like waiting for a verdict.
"According to your mother, the three sacred fruits currently held by the Divine Sea Dynasty are all thanks to your efforts," The Emperor finally spoke after a while. "In terms of achievements, you have surpassed all princes within the royal family, this is undeniable."
According to the rules for selecting a crown prince, you are eligible.
Therefore, I today proclaim... you as my heir.
As soon as these words were spoken, a tremor ran through the hearts of all the princes present!
The Heir Apparent's position...was just like that, snatched away by Cang Yu!
You need to know that this Cangyu, two months ago, was a complete waste in the royal family!
Today, the Emperor himself announced... Azure Jade as his heir!
This was a major blow to the many princes present.
However, no one dared to voice dissent.
This is the emperor's decision, no one can interfere.
All discontent can only be buried in one's heart.
Even though they knew they couldn't voice their dissent, many princes still couldn't help but glance at Cangyu's location, their eyes filled with different emotions.
There is coldness, wariness, and playfulness...
In short, there wasn't a single look that was kind.
Cang Yu could feel the hostility surrounding her. Her face had lost all color, and her body trembled, but she still bowed her head and replied, "Thank you, Father, for your trust... I will not disappoint you."
At this moment, the Empress standing beside the Emperor had a slight curve to her eyes, clearly showing a smile.
Her plan worked.
Spent a great deal of effort and encountered many unforeseen circumstances... but in the end, I still managed to elevate my offspring to the position of crown prince.e two territories were very close. This group of guards had obviously seen Rong Dao more than once and recognized him at a glance."Prince Rongdao, I ask… why have you come to our Lady's territory" the...
