Immediately after, King Zhenluo announced again that he would summon all the royal family members outside to enter the palace.
The King did not tell the rest of the royal family that the direct disciples of the White Bone Hall wanted to slaughter the entire royal family. The fewer people who knew about this, the better.
After the royal family entered the palace, they were not allowed to leave. The king wanted to protect the other members of the royal family, but those who did not know the truth thought that it was house arrest.
Some members of the royal family were afraid that the king wanted to eliminate them, so they delayed and did not enter the palace.
Such a huge action naturally made everyone panic.
In private, many ministers scolded the king for being old and muddle-headed, while some secretly investigated the reason.
In the beginning, the king was very concerned about Zhang Chen. He invited him to a banquet and gave him beauties.
However, they were all rejected by Zhang Chen. After a few times, the king gave up on currying favor.
In addition, Zhang Chen had been meditating and cultivating in the palace and did not go out. Most people in the palace had only heard of him and had never seen this mysterious Imperial Preceptor.
A group of young royal family members gathered together and chatted about Zhang Chen.
“Didn’t His Majesty confer the title of Imperial Preceptor? Why haven’t we seen the Imperial Preceptor at any of the banquets since we came to the palace?” “It seems like he has been in the palace all this time and hasn’t come out.”
“I heard that this Imperial Preceptor is an immortal. Many people saw him flying in the sky with their own eyes.”
Suddenly, someone said, “But we’ve never seen him before. Do you think this imperial preceptor is a liar?” “Why don’t we go to the Imperial Preceptor and see what immortals are like?”
“Alright, let’s go and see if it’s true.”
They were all members of the royal family. In addition, they were young and impetuous. They had been pampered since they were young and were high and mighty. They did not have much respect.
Now that they were confined to the palace, it was really too boring. This was a good opportunity to have fun.
Soon, a group of people arrived at the palace where Zhang Chen was. The leader was the fourth prince.
However, he was stopped by a guard. “Fourth Prince, please wait. This is the place where the Imperial Preceptor cultivates. Please don’t disturb him.”
The fourth prince looked displeased. “I’m here to see the Imperial Preceptor. Hurry up and report it.”
“The Imperial Preceptor has instructed that no one is to disturb him.” The guard said helplessly.
Before the fourth prince could speak, a member of the royal family scolded, “This is the fourth prince! Is the Imperial Preceptor not giving the fourth prince face?”
Hearing this, the fourth prince also felt that it made sense. In front of so many relatives, he could not lose his prestige as a prince.
“Who can’t I see in the palace? Even if it’s Father, I can see him whenever I want. Can’t I see the Imperial Preceptor?” The guard looked troubled, not knowing what to do.
“The Imperial Preceptor is hiding. Could he be a liar?”
“That’s right. Ask the Imperial Preceptor to come out and see us. Prove it to us.
Otherwise, it will be fake!”
“We have to see the Imperial Preceptor today, or we won’t leave!”
Many members of the royal family questioned loudly and hooted.
In the hall, Zhang Chen, who was cultivating, frowned when he heard the commotion. He stood up and walked out.
“Imperial Preceptor, the Fourth Prince and the others want to see you.” When the surrounding guards saw Zhang Chen come out, they hurriedly bowed in fear and trepidation.
When the royal family members saw that the Imperial Preceptor was a young man, they could not help but judge him by his appearance and looked down on him.
“He’s so young. He’s no different from us. He’s not a liar, is he?”
Egged on by the others, the fourth prince said arrogantly, “You’re the Imperial Preceptor? I heard that you’re an immortal. Prove it to us, or I’ll get someone to take you down as a liar!”
Zhang Chen looked at the fourth prince with a cold gaze. “You want me to prove it?”
“That’s right. If you don’t prove it, who knows if you’re a liar!” The fourth prince said matter-of-factly.
Zhang Chen smiled coldly. Large amounts of blood gushed out of his body, turning into a huge hand that grabbed at the Fourth Prince.
The fourth prince’s eyes were filled with fear. Before he could scream, he was
grabbed by the bloody hand.
In an instant, all the blood in his body was sucked dry, turning him into a shriveled corpse.
The blood did not return to his body. Instead, it floated and squirmed beside Zhang Chen, making him look evil and dangerous.
Looking at the Fourth Prince who had already turned into a dried corpse and the blood that seemed to have a life of its own, everyone was already scared silly. Their faces were filled with fear and disbelief.
The dignified Fourth Prince of Zhenluo Kingdom had died just because he doubted the Imperial Preceptor?
“Which one of you wants me to prove it?” Zhang Chen said coldly.
Hearing this, everyone came back to their senses. Some people sat on the ground, their pants wet. They no longer had the nobility and aura from before.
Some people ran crazily, wanting to get away from Zhang Chen. Someone shouted, “The Fourth Prince is dead. He killed the Fourth Prince!”
“Go, quickly report to the king!” “Someone, someone come quickly!”
“Lunatic, this is a lunatic. Help, help..
“Noisy!” Zhang Chen frowned. With a thought, his blood turned into a few tentacles and shot towards the noisiest people.
“Pfft, pfft, pfft…”
The blood tentacles pierced through their bodies, but not a single drop of blood flowed out from their wounds.
It should be said that the blood in their bodies had been sucked dry.
The remaining members of the royal family did not dare to make a sound.
“Don’t let anyone disturb me in the future.” Zhang Chen said to the guards who were at a loss and turned to enter the palace.
The guard leader looked at the dried corpses on the ground and his face turned pale. He muttered to himself, “It’s over, it’s over…”
Zhang Chen’s purpose in doing this was to make an example out of them.
He was not a conjurer. Today, someone had asked him to prove it. Tomorrow, someone would want to see him perform magic.
Cultivators had sharp eyes and ears, so Zhang Chen heard their conversation clearly.
These nobles were self-righteous and felt that they were high and mighty. Little did they know that in Zhang Chen’s eyes, they were no different from ordinary people.
As long as he provoked him, even if it was the king, he would kill him without hesitation.
His mission was to ensure that the royal family was not destroyed, as long as there was one person from the royal family.
A eunuch hurriedly reported, “Your Majesty, bad news. The Fourth Prince and a few members of the royal family have been killed by the Imperial Preceptor!”
“What!” King Zhenluo was shocked and quickly asked, “What’s going on?”
“The fourth prince and the others wanted to see the Immortal, and at the same time, they suspected that the Imperial Preceptor was a liar, so they went to the Imperial Preceptor’s palace and wanted him to prove himself. Then the fourth prince and the others were killed by the Imperial Preceptor.”
This matter was too serious. The eunuch did not dare to hide it and told the truth.
King Zhenluo first grieved, then sighed helplessly. “Let’s simply bury the fourth prince’s body and make arrangements. I didn’t teach my son well, so I have to apologize to the Imperial Preceptor personally.”
Compared to the survival of the royal family, the death of a son and a few royal descendants was nothing.
Furthermore, he knew very well that the Blood God Sect was a demon sect and the other party was a demon. He called them immortals just to flatter them. As far as he knew. this Imoerial Precentor was alreadv rare for him to be easy to get along with. Other than not liking to be disturbed, he did not do anything overboard.
The other disciples of the Blood God Sect killed for fun and drank human blood.
If not for the fact that he had no choice, he did not want to become a vassal of the Blood God Sect.
Even becoming a vassal of the White Bone Hall was better than becoming a member of the Blood God Sect..
