Duan Yue was not perturbed in the slightest watching the elder lead Rong Qing inside first.

The Qing Vassal Prince was probably still unwilling to give up, so he wanted to cut in front of him and try if he could inherit even if it be one drop of the demon emperor’s blood.

Inside the inner hall, a bright light suddenly surged.

The elder’s excited voice was heard from within. “Vassal Prince? Does this mean success?”

Just as the elder finished saying this, that light suddenly vanished.

The white-haired elder shook his head and gave a long sigh. “It still isn’t successful.”

Even the elder felt anxious watching from the side, seeing that it was always just that tiny bit every time.

When the two of them exited the inner hall one of the other, Duan Yue paid particular attention to the Qing Vassal Prince Rong Qing’s expression.

Yet that guy was still unruffled, without any change in his expression. He got disinterested looking at him.

What was up with this expression that looked as if he possessed no desires?

If he had no desires, then why would he come seek the demon emperor’s blood inheritance time after time?

That’s why appearances were superficial.

“Your Fourth Highness, please.” The elder finally walked to Duan Yue and gestured respectfully.

Duan Yue nodded and followed the elder to the inner hall. When he looked up—

He saw that this inner hall was empty save for a colossal stone stage at the center.

A transparent crystal ball emitting purple light floated high above the stone stage. The obscure glow from the surrounding candles made the round crystal ball look mystical.

As the purple crystal ball sparkled, a dash of crimson seemed to dart through the center.

The elder motioned Duan Yue forward. The latter strode up quickly and turned around to smile at the elder. “Elder, what if when I inject spiritual energy into this crystal ball, it explodes from the overload? Then whatever should I do?”

Duan Yue winked and drawled, “At that time, where would I go to find another such sealing sphere that carries the demon emperor’s blood inheritance for you.”

The elder couldn’t help laughing. “You just have to put in your best effort, Your Highness. To shatter this inheritance sealing sphere in one go…”

You doing that is impossible!

The elder swallowed his thoughts.

This kind of shrewd person naturally wouldn’t speak out of turn in front of Duan Yue.

Duan Yue shook his sleeves to reveal his hands.

A stream of water spirit generated from his hands and shot straight for the inheritance sealing sphere opposite.

When the spiritual energy hit the inheritance seal, the entire ball burst with blinding light.

This kind of light was thousands of times brighter than the light Rong Qing produced earlier!

The elder was completely dumbstruck!

The Qing Vassal Prince Rong Qing who was standing in the outer hall abruptly turned around. His impassive face finally showed slight surprise.

Sure enough, this world never lacked prodigies!

Meanwhile, for the people standing outside the imperial ancestral temple awaiting results of the inheritance.

The Ultramarine Province Emperor and Crown Prince both looked up at the streams of blinding light shooting up to the sky from the imperial ancestral temple.

Rong Li furtively suppressed the gloom in his eyes as he looked up meaningfully at the source of that bright light.

“Ha, hahaha!” The Ultramarine Province Emperor couldn’t resist laughing out loud. “Could it be my son?”

“Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty!” The elder bolted down the long stairs heading to the imperial ancestral temple. He congratulated ecstatically, “His Fourth Highness has started to proceed with the inheritance!”

“Where is my son?” The emperor’s hands shook from rapture.

The elder was naturally thrilled as well, and he explained, “His Highness has been isolated right now! No one can approach for the time being!”
