Chapter 471: Chapter 228: Saving the World Is Good Business (Part 2)

Yet the Three-Deficient Artisan before him was like a black hole. No matter how Ye Qingzhou used the Divine Eye to observe, he couldn’t penetrate the artisan’s fate trajectory, as if all celestial secrets were obscured by a layer of mist.

"Something is amiss!"

Ye Qingzhou instinctively felt a chill: "There’s a higher existence behind him, concealing the celestial secret, making it impossible to observe this person’s fate trajectory, hence my inability to see through."

To be able to obscure celestial secrets, such a means is simply beyond imagination.

As Ye Qingzhou pondered, an abrupt change occurred in the arena!

The Three-Deficient Artisan left his contest seat, limping toward the altar, his scarred face now more terrifyingly grotesque.

Four Golden Armor Guards stepped forward to block his path, holding long knives, their eyes vigilant.

"What are you doing?"

The Three-Deficient Artisan ignored their shouts, continuing to approach step by step.

"Rude individual!"

"How dare you offend the Sovereign!"

The Golden Armor Guards were furious and immediately swung their blades at the Three-Deficient Artisan. They all possessed the strength of Earth Evil Grandmasters, and with a single slash, they invoked the Earth Core Fire Fiend, possessing the power to incinerate all things.

Yet the Three-Deficient Artisan neither dodged nor evaded, suddenly bursting forth with a powerful aura, causing all the approaching Golden Armor Guards to cough blood and fly back.

Ferocious.

Malicious.

Cruel.

The aura exuding from the Three-Deficient Artisan was akin to the king of hellish ghosts, even his previously blind right eye now flared with a crimson flame in the hollow socket.

Lian Huoji narrowed her Phoenix Eyes, alarm bells ringing in her mind, instinctively sensing an unprecedented threat from the man before her.

"Who are you, really?"

"Lian Huoji, it’s unsurprising you don’t recognize me, considering that while you were still in your mother’s womb, I nearly met my end at your father’s hands."

The Three-Deficient Artisan grinned, revealing sharp steel teeth, and let out an eerie laugh: "In terms of rank, you should be calling me elder brother."

"Elder brother? Wait! You are... Lian Huoqi?"

Lian Huoji suddenly remembered the elder brother who only existed in memories: "Aren’t you supposed to be dead?"

"Certainly, you’d wish I were dead, but heaven destined my life wouldn’t end, and I survived to this day, waiting for the chance to exact revenge."

The Three-Deficient Artisan harbored an immense hatred, a piercing killing intent overflowing from his body: "I was the one with outstanding martial prowess, even promising to become the Rakshasa Woman Kingdom’s first male monarch. But precisely for this reason, I ended up facing death, and the mastermind behind it was none other than your father!"

Fighting for royal power has always been a blood-soaked and cruel endeavor, devoid of compassion or righteousness.

Lian Huoqi, once the esteemed Rakshasa Prince, was an exceptional talent, capable of refining the Royal Family’s National Guardian Divine Skill "Divine Heaven Fierce Slash", allowing males in the royal family to delve into the potential of their bloodline, thereby aspiring to reach the Martial God Realm.

If successful, Lian Huoqi wouldn’t just become the first male monarch in the history of the Rakshasa Woman Kingdom, but henceforth, the kingdom would no longer be female-dominated.

From a national perspective, this would benefit the Rakshasa Woman Kingdom, since previously, only females could cultivate the National Guardian Divine Skill to Great Success and Perfection.

With Lian Huoqi’s enhancements, it meant males could also evolve the National Guardian Divine Skill to its highest realm, thereby aspiring towards Ascension and Godhood.

By doing so, the number of Martial God level experts might double.

However, what benefits the nation may not benefit certain vested interests.

Hence, the incident of Lian Huoqi’s diplomatic mission to Feather Kingdom, which witnessed an attack midway.

Though nothing was revealed in the end, there’s no wall in the world without cracks; if one wishes it unfound, one mustn’t act.

With tip-offs from certain individuals, Lian Huoqi already knew that during the incident, his father and several grand nobles were involved.

To consolidate power, these vested interests even dared to murder a prince, and the act even received some degree of royal approval.

Ultimately, Lian Huoqi became the sacrificial piece in the power struggle, he "died".

Now surviving, only an evil ghost named the Three-Deficient Artisan remains.

The prince’s identity was unveiled, immediately causing an uproar, everyone left stunned by the scene before their eyes. No one expected this year’s Divine Blade Festival to be so explosive.

Suddenly, the scene began to become chaotic.

Even the contestants in the competition were now trembling, fearing involvement in this disaster, their minds no longer focused on the contest.

"You want revenge?"

Lian Huoji stood on the altar, her gaze suddenly dimming, her mood somewhat downcast.

Though it wasn’t her doing, her throne was indeed snatched from the Three-Deficient Artisan, using exceptionally disgraceful means.

Thus facing the erstwhile elder brother before her, she felt remorse: "The matters of the past, truly were wronged by the royal family, if you seek compensation..."

"Compensation? Right now, I only want your lives!"

The Three-Deficient Artisan emitted a hysterical laugh, his gaze filled solely with maddened killing intent.

Lian Huoji sighed upon seeing this: "It seems your reason has been blinded by hatred, for the Rakshasa Woman Kingdom’s safety, you cannot be allowed to live."

Despite the remorse, being a monarch now, caring for the nation’s safety, it’s impossible for her to offer her neck to the slaughter.

In this moment, she’s already borne intentions of killing.

For the stability of the Rakshasa Woman Kingdom, she must eliminate the threat posed by the Three-Deficient Artisan.
