Chapter 774: Chapter 774 – Bloodline Devourer
“Father…”
Looking at the confident and high-spirited King Violet, Chen Heng suddenly did not know what to say.
Of course, he knew there was a problem with King Violet’s actions. However, the other party was indeed full of confidence and did not think this matter would have any reaction. He was too careless.
However, the Violet Empire had gone through the same thing in the past. In this world where extraordinary individuals determined everything, such massacres were not rare. Sometimes, the awakening of a sufficiently powerful bloodline was enough to cause such an outcome.
Hence, such a matter was extremely normal in the eyes of King Violet. Because it was normal, it was nothing.
To be able to send a royal to go was already considered a considerable degree of importance. In the past, there would not even be such a degree.
Chen Heng sighed. He knew that he could not persuade King Violet, so he could only go to collect information and then continue to persuade him.
He would not have gone through so much trouble if it were someone else. If reasoning did not work, he could just use physics to persuade him. After all, there was no trouble.
However, he could not take the same action towards King Violetin front of him. It was not because he was Chen Heng’s father in name, but because of his power.
King Violet had an inexplicable power protecting him. Chen Heng did not know where this power originated from, but he could feel an aura close to the Silver Moon bloodline in his body. It should belong to the Violet Royal Family, he just did not know what it was.
…
With the protection of this power, even if Chen Heng suppressed the Violet Royal Family, he could not do anything to them.
If he forces an order, it would immediately become a threat to the throne of the Violet Empire. At that time, the forces behind the Violet Royal Family would probably step up to stop him. It would be hard to imagine what would happen.
Chen Heng could only settle for an alternative. He planned to go to the outside world to gather some evidence before coming over to persuade them. He believed that this wouldn’t take too much time. He then bade farewell to King Violet and turned around to leave.
Behind him, King Violet watched as he left. His pair of eyes stared at Chen Heng as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.
Bang!
A crisp sound could be heard from the spacious room. It was a well-decorated hall with many people sitting in it. They were all noble-looking and had powerful auras. At this moment, they were escorting a young man to discuss some matters.
The young man’s face was ashen. He smashed the wooden table in front of him with one punch. He seemed to be in a bad mood.
“Alan was summoned by father alone to the Palace?”
Jason’s expression was unsightly.
Just now, when Chen Heng was summoned by King Violet and entered the palace, he received the news and immediately gathered his supporters. When Chen Heng came out, his expression was even more unsightly.
“It’s been more than two hours. Father has never talked to me for such a long time in the past!
“What exactly did they talk about? What is father’s attitude?”
Jason’s face was ashen as he looked at his underlings. “Can any of you help me investigate this information?”
According to common sense, it was completely understandable for a child who had been reunited after a long time to return to his side. As a father, he would do all sorts of intimate actions.
It was all the same, whether it was a late-night meeting or a long conversation. There was nothing in it. However, Jason could not help but feel terrified and instinctively felt uneasy.
Because in his heart, before Aili went missing, Chen Heng was already King Violet’s favorite child. Before Aili went missing, he had invited Chen Heng back to the Imperial City many times.
Now, after Chen Heng returned to the Imperial City, he was immediately treated with such courtesy. Wasn’t this a dangerous prelude?
The people present looked at Jason’s ashen face and did not dare to say anything.
Compared to half a year ago, Jason had already established his authority. No one dared to act now that he was angry.
After a while, Jason’s expression eased slightly, and he slowly calmed down.
“I lost my composure.”
He forced himself to calm down. He looked at the people in front of him and said, “The matter is already set in stone. Alan’s threat is too great. We must think of a way to suppress it.”
“Do you have any ideas?”
“For the time being, it’s best not to do anything.”
The hall temporarily fell into silence. It was not until a long while later that someone spoke, attracting the surrounding people’s attention. Jason turned his gaze over, and it was best if he could see a delicate-looking woman with a unique charm.
She was wearing a red robe, and everyone immediately turned their gazes over as she spoke.
“Oh?”
Jason was a little surprised, and then he said, “Miss Sisi, do you have any plans?”
The situation in the primogenitor world was different from the other worlds. This world valued bloodlines and did not place much importance on men and women. Therefore, there were also many women among Jason’s supporters. Sisi was one of them.
“It’s not a particularly profound principle.”
Seeing Jason’s gaze on the gods, the woman smiled. A smile appeared on her delicate face. “It’s just that His Highness Alan has just returned. What would His Majesty think if we made a move against His Highness Alan and was found out?”
“That’s right.”
Another person chimed in. He said, “If His Majesty finds out that His Highness has made a move against His Highness Alan, I’m afraid he will be angry. At that time, not only will it not have the effect of hurting His Highness Alan, but it will also cause his majesty to have bad thoughts about us.
“So, not only can we not make a move now, but we must protect his highness Alan on the surface to prevent any accidents.”
“That’s right.”
Jason nodded and thought about it carefully. He felt that what they said made sense. “Even if we want to attack, we must not do it on the surface. We must not let father and the others find out.”
“It sounds like this.”
The smile on Sisi’s face did not change. She said, “However, although we can’t attack His Highness Alan on the surface, we can do it in other aspects.
“For example, his Chamber of Commerce.”
Jason’s eyes immediately lit up. “That’s right.
“The Chamber of Commerce.”
In the eyes of Jason and the others, the Chamber of Commerce under Chen Heng was a force that could not be ignored.
Alice mainly ran the Chamber of Commerce under Chen Heng. The main business of the Chamber of Commerce was the bloodline medicine that Chen Heng had previously researched.
However, it was needless to say that although Chen Heng only casually refined this potion, its effect was very powerful in this world where the main focus was on bloodlines. It solved quite many problems.
Because of this, the Chamber of Commerce under Chen Heng grew rapidly in the past half a year. The profits earned by it were desirable. Even a prince like Jason was envious of it.
He was also a bloodline warrior, so it was easy for him to have all sorts of problems due to the influence of his bloodline. Therefore, he needed to use bloodline medicine to solve them. Naturally, he understood the importance of this medicine.
With the support of this medicine, the Chamber of Commerce naturally had quite a lot of influence. It could be considered the most powerful force under Chen Heng.
“Pass the message down. Get someone to think of a way to notify those people outside. I don’t think I need to say anything more about what to do, right?”
Jason looked at his subordinates and seemed to have thought of something. A cold smile appeared on his face.
The people around him looked calm. At this moment, they understood and did not say anything more. After a moment, they dispersed and left the secret passage. They returned to their residence as if nothing had happened.
Sisi was the only exception. She did not return to her residence. Instead, she walked to another place along the way.
It was a dilapidated building. It looked like an old manor, but she could find something different when she walked inside. Although the outside world was a little old, the inside was very clean. There was no messy and rotten feeling at all.
Among them, there were some signs placed here to display. These were all the signs of the Descending Assembly. The place was a temporary residence of the Descending Assembly. Sisi was one of the members of the assembly.
After walking into this place, Sisi’s face changed rapidly. She changed from a delicate and pretty woman to an extremely charming and flirtatious woman.
She had a better face and an extraordinary charm. No matter how hard-hearted people were, they would be moved by her beauty. However, they would only be on guard if Charlie and the others saw her.
Because this was no one else but Aisha, a transmigrator like them. After dealing with Aili, she had lurked by second prince Jason’s side and gained his trust. Who knew how much time had passed.
“Interesting, interesting.”
Walking into the church from the outside world, Aisha recovered her original appearance. Recalling the scene just now, she could not help but smile.
“I didn’t expect we would meet in such a way, Mr. Chen Heng…”
She had a smile on her face. When Chen Heng left and went to the King’s Council, Ayesha had contacted Charlie a few times, so she naturally knew Chen Heng’s true identity.
“I wonder if Mr. Chen Heng will thank me if I send this information to him?”
She had a smile on her face as this thought flashed through her mind. Then, she sent someone to send a message, preparing to send the news from the meeting to Chen Heng so that he could prepare in advance.
Of course, she would not mention her role in this. She was just doing him a favor. She didn’t think that a good-for-nothing like Jason would hinder Chen Heng.
“My prediction is a bit off. I didn’t expect Mr. Chen Heng to return at this time.”
Aisha lowered her head and thought, “I just don’t know what will happen next.”
Chen Heng’s sudden return was a relatively unexpected thing for her. Before this, she had already been developing in this capital for quite some time, and it could be considered one of the highlights of her development.
As she was thinking, she suddenly raised her head and looked outside.
“Oh?”
A puzzled expression appeared on her face as she felt a familiar aura. It was an aura she had come into contact with before, and she had even personally harmed it. It was very powerful, so she naturally wouldn’t mistake it.
In her reaction, the owner of this aura seemed to have returned once again and was heading towards this place. Was it an illusion? Most likely not. Then, things got very interesting.
“Is it a plan from the King’s Council?”
Aisha instantly thought of Chen Heng, Charlie, and others still in the Imperial City. The corners of her mouth could not help but curl up into a smile. “I wonder how you will deal with it?
“Please don’t disappoint me.”
She had a smile, but many bloody scenes flashed through her mind. Her eyes were filled with an inexplicable excitement.
In the distance, Chen Heng also sensed the abnormality.
“Huh?”
He raised his head and looked into the distance. At this moment, he also felt the abnormal situation. Not far away, a malicious intent was spreading out and rushing toward this place.
The main body of that malicious intent made him feel somewhat familiar. On the side, there was an even more familiar aura.
It was Aili… and Jameson.
The two of them had come? Thinking of the information he had gathered before, Chen Heng instantly reacted.
Aili and Jameson, these two people, were probably the culprits behind the destruction of the surrounding cities. He just didn’t know why they had suddenly returned.
Was this also part of the King’s Council’s plan?
Chen Heng was puzzled and looked into the distance. However, no matter what the King’s Council wanted to do, he would soon find out. Because in the distance, that figure was currently walking into the city.
A miserable massacre was about to begin.
“Blood… so much blood…”
It was late at night, and Aili wore a long robe covering his abnormally tall body. At this moment, his face was filled with desire as he looked at the passersby passing by.
To him, everything here was extremely attractive. The people around him all possessed the bloodline of the Silver Moon Royal Family, and the density was much higher than that of other cities in the outside world. This was like a piece of dessert for Aili, and he could swallow it at any time.
