Chapter 1142 (Killed by the Air)
"All hail our Emperor!" The civil and military officials bowed their heads.
Huang Fei opened his arms, took a deep breath, preparing to announce his rise...
But suddenly, he felt a chill on his neck, as if he had been pricked by an ice needle.
After a while, the officials were curious why he hadn\'t announced his rise yet.
"Emperor... Emperor..." The little eunuch standing beside Huang Fei called out.
After a few calls from the eunuch, there was no response from the Emperor. He turned his head slightly to see...
Ah!
The eunuch finally let out a scream like a woman.
As the eunuch screamed, all the officials looked up at Huang Fei!
They suddenly took a cold breath!
They saw hot blood flowing from Huang Fei\'s neck. The imperial robe was already dyed red with blood, and Huang Fei still maintained the posture of spreading his arms.
"Emperor!"
"An assassin!"
"Emperor! What happened to you?!"
The entire palace was in chaos!
"Silence!" Shan Junren shouted angrily!
Ye Yuanqing looked at Huang Fei, who was high above, and said in a deep voice, "The Emperor has already passed away..."
Although she couldn\'t believe it, Ye Yuanqing had to believe the reality before her. The Emperor had died right in front of everyone!
Who could it be! Who had such great ability!
At least half of the people present were Overlord-level figures. Even if a Supreme Overlord came to assassinate, there should be fluctuations in their aura...
Moreover, Huang Fei himself was also an Overlord level figure, and now he died without any explanation.
"General Ye, what do you think?" Shan Junren asked in a deep voice.
Ye Yuanqing shook her head, "I don\'t know. The Emperor was definitely killed by someone, but this person... either they are extremely powerful, or it\'s the air itself! They even wiped out the Emperor\'s primordial soul!"
Everyone\'s face turned serious. The Emperor of the Spirit City was assassinated in front of civil and military officials. This was such a slap in the face...
"Prime Minister Shan, let\'s make preparations for the Emperor\'s aftermath." Ye Yuanqing said softly.
Shan Junren looked at the people behind him and asked in a low voice, "General Ye, how should we choose the successor for the Crown Prince?"
A prime minister asking such a question was clearly implying that Ye Yuanqing should take charge.
Even now, many people are looking at Ye Yuanqing. Huang Fei suddenly died like this. Did Prince Ye have a hand?
Ye Yuanqing had no intention of usurping the throne. Even if she did, it would be inappropriate.
Seeing Ye Yuanqing silent, Shan Junren whispered again, "Prince Ye, do you have any arrangements?"
Shan Junren was quite scheming and just wanted to inquire whether Prince Ye was involved in this assassination.
Ye Yuanqing said in a deep voice, "Prime Minister Shan, my elder brother, is not in the Spirit City."
"But General Ye, this is a rare opportunity. Please inform Prince Ye." Shan Junren said softly and then walked away.
Ye Yuanqing was now a bit hesitant. She looked at her father, who seemed very panicked, as if afraid of getting into trouble.
Ye Yuanqing shook her head. Go ask her father? That would be futile. It would be better to ask her elder brother...
How to resolve this issue? Join hands with Shan Junren to seize the throne? Or focus on her own duties?
Ye Yuanqing looked at the golden throne with a solemn expression.
Of course, there was still Huang Fei standing there. Even though he was dead now, his eyes still conveyed disbelief. Why did he die like this...
Who was the murderer? No one knew. It was an unclear death...
But the killer had long left the Spirit City, a trivial matter for someone like Bai Gu, who could wave his hand and make things happen.
Huang Fei\'s death rocked Spirit City...
But the news of the assassination was buried. They said the Emperor suddenly fell ill, spit out a few mouthfuls of blood, and died.
Whoever came up with this excuse was really careless. An Overlord spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood and dying?
Was it a joke?
Nevertheless, the Emperor was dead!
This was what everyone cared about. Now the problem arose: with the Emperor dead, who would be the new Emperor?
Among the sons of Huang Fei, all of them were idle and didn\'t focus on their duties. Even the relatively outstanding Crown Prince, Huang Yun, was dead. So who had the qualifications to be the Emperor?
But now someone suggested that Prince Ye should become the Emperor. This was somewhat justified, although he had a different surname, he was still a lord.
However, the royal family strongly opposed this suggestion. An outsider lord wanting to become the Emperor was impossible!
At this moment, someone questioned, apart from Prince Ye, who else was more qualified to be the Emperor?
The people mostly chose the Emperors in the Spirit City! Of course, they were chosen from within the royal family.
This was why Huang Yun cared so much about public opinion, and Huang Fei was the same. If they didn\'t consider people\'s opinions, they could have just killed each other directly.
But now the problem was that there were no outstanding individuals in the royal family. They were all trash. Asking trash to become the Emperor was unacceptable.
If Huang Yun knew that such a thing had happened, he would definitely have approached it calmly. Now the throne had fallen onto his head without the need for any struggle.
With the Emperor gone, the entire Spirit City was in chaos, and discussions about the new Emperor were widespread.
At this moment, Ye Yuanqing was already standing at the gates of the Voidless Empire, amazed by her elder brother\'s city.
The city walls were so high and majestic, it seemed like her elder brother was incredibly wealthy. It was so reflective and dazzling, even more solid than the walls of the Spirit City. His elder brother was truly formidable.
Entering the city, Ye Yuanqing saw a different kind of city. The streets here were wide, much more spacious than those in the Spirit City, and people walked on the streets without feeling crowded.
Moreover, the streets were very clean, and people interacted with friendliness. Everyone\'s face bore a happy smile, content with their current lives.
Ye Yuanqing thought her elder brother was a genius, managing an empire so well.
Perhaps... if her elder brother could become the Emperor of the Spirit City, it would be a blessing for the people.
Thinking of this, Ye Yuanqing seemed to have made up her mind and walked towards the imperial palace.
At this time, Ye Hua was contemplating in his study. Hearing his sister coming, Ye Hua was slightly surprised, a faint smile appearing on his lips.
His mood improved a bit.
"Yuanqing." Watching his sister approach, Ye Hua smiled slightly.
Ye Yuanqing pretended to be puzzled, "Should I call you Brother Emperor or just Big Brother?"
"Whatever makes you happy," Ye Hua said, reaching out to pat Ye Yuanqing\'s head, and the latter enjoyed this gesture.
"Yuanqing, why have you come?" Qian Yuqing exclaimed standing by the side.
"Sister-in-law, wow... how beautiful you\'ve become in just a short time. Could it be that you and Big Brother have been... intimate?"
