True Heiress Cuts Ties, The Marquis Household Bitterly Regrets-Chapter 295 - 294: The Shocking Truth!

In her ear, she heard Prince An Nan admit it, undoubtedly delivering the heaviest blow to Princess An Nan.

Her chest ached, and she was so enraged that she coughed up blood.

Bitterly, she said, "Decades of marriage, yet I didn’t expect you to be so vile to me. You know people, but not their hearts. Why did I ever return to suffer at your hands?"

Tears fell like raindrops; Princess An Nan was utterly heartbroken.

"Mother!"

Xie Jiarou resonated with the pain, she looked expectantly at Prince An Nan and asked, "Father, you’re tricking us, right? Did evil spirits possess you? This surely isn’t truly what you think, is it?"

Prince An Nan dismissed her with scorn, "Foolish girl, you’re still lying to yourself? My offspring’s greatest use is as... sacrifices!"

Xie Yunzhe inhaled sharply, feeling his wounds growing more painful, and with cold sweat, he asked, "What exactly did you do to me? You want to use our lives for sacrifice?"

Pei Yunzhi cried out, "Prince, I’ve been locked up, why do you still want to bring me here for sacrifice?"

"Shh! Don’t speak, your lives aren’t sacrificed in vain, you’ll make the Great Chao Country shine brightly."

Prince An Nan walked up to Xie Yunzhe, and before anyone could react, stabbed a dagger into his chest, sneering coldly, "Child, go peacefully, your destiny was born to be a vessel, now it’s your time to fulfill it."

"Gah ah ah—"

A painful groan issued from Xie Yunzhe’s throat, the stabbing pain in his chest spreading, he felt his life gradually slipping away, yet it seemed an unfamiliar power was surging through him, trying to take control.

"Madness!"

Yu Nianzhao hadn’t anticipated Prince An Nan would act without hesitation, it’s no wonder he wasn’t afraid when seeing them burst in.

"The ritual has begun; they’re truly going to resurrect someone. We must interrupt the ritual; I feel whoever they’re resurrecting is no good."

Yu Nianzhao and Xie Jiuxiao exchanged glances, setting off from two directions towards the same destination.

"Stop them!"

Prince An Nan calmly ordered.

A shadow blocked Xie Jiuxiao’s path, the cloaked figure removed their hood, revealing Shi Ye who had previously escaped.

"Hahaha, Xie Jiuxiao, we meet again?"

Shi Ye laughed wildly, "Last time was my mistake, this time I’ve consumed many evil spirits to heal! I’ll drag you into hell..."

"Such nonsense!"

Not waiting for Shi Ye to finish, Xie Jiuxiao coldly thrust a sword forward.

This sword had been inscribed with talismans by Yu Nianzhao, and on striking Shi Ye’s chest, it emitted white smoke, causing him to scream in agony.

"Damn, you tricked me?"

Shi Ye was enraged, he reached to choke Xie Jiuxiao’s neck.

Xie Jiuxiao evaded with derision, "Shi Ye, be it in life or in death, you’re still the same useless fool!"

The comment completely enraged Shi Ye, and they engaged in fierce combat as man and ghost.

"Miss, why not accompany me for some fun?"

A black-clad figure wearing a Meng Po mask blocked Yu Nianzhao’s path, attempting to impede her progress.

"Wei Zhao, Liuzhu!"

Yu Nianzhao wouldn’t spare her a glance, summoning directly.

A cold wind swept through, Liuzhu and Wei Zhao appeared before the Judgement Netherworld Envoy, impeding her steps.

When Yu Nianzhao reached the altar, she saw Xie Yunzhe already rolling his eyes.

"This is bad!"

Yu Nianzhao frowned, quickly flung a number of talismans, yet they were deftly blocked by Prince An Nan with his Compass.

"Hmph, what is your skill compared to my plethora of Magic Artifacts?"

Prince An Nan snorted coldly, and once again several shadows emerged, encircling Yu Nianzhao.

"I’m so tired, I’m so sleepy."

Xie Jiarou was pale and weak from bloodletting.

"I don’t want to die, Prince, save me..."

Pei Yunzhi’s voice was hoarse, barely audible.

"What’s happening here?"

Emperor Anqing arrived, surrounded by the Dragon Shadow Guards, and on witnessing the scene, he couldn’t help but be filled with shock.

"Is this a sacrifice?"

Accompanying him, Dongfang Hong calculated quickly, his expression changed dramatically, "Prince An Nan is mad? He wants to resurrect the dead!" 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

"Prince An Nan, why are you doing this? Who are you trying to resurrect?"

Emperor Anqing’s face changed drastically, quickly rebuking, "The peace we’ve worked so hard for in the Great Chao Country, are you going to shatter it? I never imagined the Chu Family was merely a pawn in your hand, after trusting you all this time."

Prince An Nan sneered, "You couldn’t possibly believe the peace of the Great Chao Country is your doing? It was a prosperous era crafted by my father, handed to you on a platter? Do you remember Father’s majestic presence? Yet in the end, he was devoured by evil spirits, and you didn’t save him?"

Prince An Nan brought up bygone matters, consumed with rage.

Emperor Anqing’s eyes widened, he didn’t expect such a topic, angrily retorting, "Evil spirit backlash, Mr. Dongfang was there too, it was a matter beyond salvation, it’s Father who relied too heavily on the Forbidden Technique, can you blame me for that?"

Chilling laughter!

Suddenly, a piercing laughter rang in his ear.

It came from Xie Yunzhe’s mouth.

Xie Yunzhe rolled his eyes, though it was he speaking, his mouth emitted a stranger’s voice.

"Old Thirteen, is this your filial piety towards me?"

The aged voice echoed, striking Emperor Anqing and Xie Jiuxiao as if lightning had struck.

"My father!"

The voice invoked a deep-seated fear within Emperor Anqing, his trembling voice asked in disbelief, "You’re resurrecting my father?"

Indeed, Prince An Nan was resurrecting none other than the late emperor!

"Correct, it’s Father, no one is more suited to rule the Great Chao Country than he. He is the unparalleled genius, the one who led the country to prosperity, yet you, a nobody, benefited from it. Had it not been for Xie Jiuxiao, would you have ever become Emperor?"

Prince An Nan’s eyes gleamed with obsession, he looked ecstatic as he observed Xie Yunzhe on the verge of his takeover, feeling unprecedented satisfaction.

"Pervert!"

Yu Nianzhao shouted angrily, "You’re using your own son’s body to resurrect your father? You’re a fangirl, a daddy’s boy? Truly insane!"

"Hahahahaha, what do you understand? My son can never compare to my father!"

Prince An Nan spoke manically, "Since Father’s passing, I’ve plotted everything. My child is the best vessel, do you think Yunzhe is my only son? But the one with the best destiny is him. Oh, actually his destiny was fortified by a bit of purple energy, crafting a more perfect fate worthy of my father!"

"Ah! You bastard, release my son!"

Princess An Nan was immensely pained, wishing she could personally slay this old traitor!
