The Black Lotus Reborn: The Entire Sect Kneels and Begs for My Forgiveness

Chapter 415 The World Has Changed

It has been quite some time since Ye Yunong left.

In the camp of the Extinction Holy Dynasty, the Crown Prince was filled with anxiety and could not sit still.

Time flew by, and three days passed in the blink of an eye, but Ye Yunong was still nowhere to be found.

In the past few days, imperial edicts have been frequently arriving from the Holy Dynasty.

After the Third Prince was injured, the capital quickly dispatched top imperial physicians to provide emergency treatment.

Nourished by various rare and precious medicinal herbs, the Third Prince's crippled right hand, though unlikely to fully recover in the short term, has at least stabilized.

As soon as the Third Prince's condition stabilized, he hypocritically came to apologize to the Crown Prince.

His face was full of remorse, his eyes were filled with tears, and he looked heartbroken as he spoke.

“Brother Crown Prince, I was really confused that day. I don’t know how I did such a stupid thing.”

I was actually a victim too. I drank a bowl of soup that the Crown Princess sent me, and afterwards I became delirious and did those wrong things.

I hope my elder brother, the Crown Prince, can forgive me this time.

The Crown Prince looked at the Third Prince's tearful appearance and secretly despised him, thinking that he was extremely hypocritical, but he could not show it out loud.

Because the Crown Prince discovered that there had been no news of the person behind the scenes these days, he couldn't help but suspect that the Imperial Noble Consort was secretly plotting something, and even worried that his mother might have been kidnapped by her.

With our own people not in the capital, it would be unwise to rashly break ties with the Third Prince; we can only endure it for now.

And so, the two brothers superficially reconciled.

"Brother Huang, my injuries have stabilized. My foolish actions previously caused the army's journey to be delayed."

Now that I am out of danger, our immediate priority should be to continue the attack on Longdu, lest anything untoward happen.

As the Third Prince spoke, he took out the imperial edict from the capital, his eyes filled with urgency, urging the Crown Prince to set off immediately.

The prince agreed verbally, but in his heart he knew it was time to use the elixir his master had given him.

However, what troubled the Crown Prince was that since that night, the Third Prince had become extremely wary.

These days, he refuses to eat anything except the food and medicine he prepares himself.

The crown prince searched for an opportunity many times, but failed to make a move. He was extremely anxious but had no solution.

"We should break camp and set off early tomorrow morning. I'm really useless. I can't even complete this small task that my master assigned me."

Filled with anxiety and helplessness, the prince went alone to the prison cart and complained to Long Jia.

"How about I let you go, and you go to Longdu to inform them, so that they have some warning?"

The Crown Prince was genuinely worried that if the army actually advanced, Longdu would be in grave danger.

Master is the Heavenly Dragon Princess, and his father and mother are naturally his relatives. How could he allow his own army to attack his own relatives?

"The Holy Dynasty's army is strong and well-equipped, and the disparity in strength is too great. Even if I go to inform them, it won't make much of a difference."

Long Jia was also full of doubts, unable to figure out what the female boss was thinking. With the situation so urgent, why hadn't the female boss returned yet?

The next morning, at the crack of dawn, the Third Prince was already fully armed and ready to depart.

Although the Crown Prince was filled with worry, he could only force himself to stay focused. The army quickly assembled, and everything was ready; they were just waiting for the order to advance towards Longdu.

Just as the Third Prince raised his arm high, preparing to give the order to advance, a nimble eagle swooped down from the sky like an arrow and landed steadily in front of him.

"It's the Holy Eagle of the Holy Capital. Could it be that Father Emperor has sent another imperial edict urging us to hurry up?"

The third prince was secretly puzzled, a hint of doubt showing on his face.

He strode forward and reached out to remove the secret letter tied to the falcon's leg.

However, after reading the contents of the secret letter, the Third Prince's face turned deathly pale. His original confidence and composure vanished, replaced by a face full of anger.

"This is outrageous! Have those traitors and rebellious sons rebelled?" he couldn't help but roar.

The crown prince, who was standing nearby, was also startled when he heard this, and quickly stepped forward to find out what was going on.

When he saw the contents of the secret letter, his expression became extremely strange, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.

"No way, really? What a coincidence?"

The crown prince's eyes widened, and his voice involuntarily rose, "So many dynasties actually rebelled at this time?"

"Now hundreds of dynasties have attacked the Holy Capital?"

He looked as if he had seen a ghost, and the shock on his face was impossible to hide.

The Third Prince was equally stunned and stood there for a long time before he came to his senses. He couldn't believe his eyes and read the secret letter several times. After confirming that the contents were correct, the veins on his forehead bulged, and he crumpled the secret letter into a ball.

"How can this be!"

He roared through gritted teeth, then, as if suddenly remembering something, he quickly shouted at the top of his lungs,

"Quickly! Bring General Liang here to me!"

Before long, General Liang arrived in a hurry, followed by several deputy generals.

Before he could even catch his breath, the Third Prince shoved the secret letter into his hand, angrily saying...

"General Liang, take a look for yourself!"

General Liang took the secret letter with a puzzled look, glanced at it quickly, and his expression changed drastically. He almost dropped the letter.

"This...how is this possible?"

He muttered to himself, and like the other generals present, they all exclaimed that it was impossible.

In their minds, the Holy Dynasty has always been a supreme and unshakeable entity.

Those vassal dynasties were always weak, and they usually bowed down to the Holy Dynasty and obeyed its orders. In their eyes, these dynasties had neither the courage nor the strength to resist.

But who could have imagined that just as the Third Prince was drawing his main forces to launch a full-scale attack on the Tianlong Dynasty, those dynasties that usually seemed docile actually united in rebellion.

"Third Prince, there is no time to lose, we should return immediately!"

The other deputy generals present stepped forward to persuade him, their faces full of anxiety.

Judging from the contents of the letter, the situation in the Holy Capital is extremely critical. Every moment of delay increases the danger. If reinforcements are not sent back soon, the Holy Capital may be in grave danger.

"That's right, we must rush back immediately to rescue Father and Mother!"

The crown prince chimed in as he spoke.

On the surface, he was worried about the situation in the Holy Capital, but in reality, he was secretly relieved. He knew that this meant the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty was temporarily saved.

However, after calming down, the Crown Prince felt that there was something strange about the matter.

He frowned, pondering to himself, how could those dynasties that usually seemed to be well-behaved suddenly unite to attack the Holy Dynasty after only a few days of his master's absence?

It should be noted that for over a thousand years, the Holy Dynasty had maintained its dominant position, with no other dynasty daring to disobey. Such a large-scale rebellion was unprecedented.

Is there some hidden story behind this?

still is……
