#726 - Chapter 726 Another Fallen
“What price must I pay for the throne?”
“Hmph.”
The questioned First Prince, Shi Renjun, reverted to his previous arrogant demeanor, his face unpleasant as he spoke.
“For the throne, I have already paid everything I have.”
“You dare ask me what I need to sacrifice?”
Clearly, although the First Prince, Shi Renjun, knew Wu Wei was powerful, the sense of superiority instilled by the royal family still allowed him to look at Wu Wei with a degree of pride.
“Wu Wei, just say it directly, what do you want to do?”
Faced with the suddenly hardened Prince, Wu Wei abandoned his previous indifference, instead revealing a smile.
“Wow, my dear Prince, calm down... calm down!”
“As I said before, you and I are partners, definitely not in a superior-subordinate relationship.”
“So, the question I raised earlier was, in essence, just a matter of concern.”
“Concern?”
“That’s not a word I expected to hear from you.”
“Hehe, believe it or not, I’m really not lying, Your Highness.”
“You might not believe it, but I, Wu Wei, am the most eager person in the entire Human Empire for you to ascend the throne and become the new Emperor.”
Seeing the Prince not believing his words, Wu Wei had no choice but to retract his previous smile and replace it with a serious expression.
And Wu Wei really wasn’t lying.
In the entire Human Empire, he might really be the only lord who would support the First Prince, Shi Renjun, ascending the throne under any circumstances.
The reason?
Very simple.
In Wu Wei’s mind, only the First Prince, Shi Renjun, was most suitable to become his puppet!
However, these secrets could only exist in Wu Wei’s heart and must never be spoken out.
“If you really don’t believe me, then I can invite you to my territory to explore the scenes that no lord has ever seen!”
“And if you’re willing, I can even make an exception for you and leave a position for a teleportation gate!”
Hearing Wu Wei say this, Prince Shi Renjun was stunned.
“Damn it, are you serious?”
The reason he was so excited was that Wu Wei was a solo lord. Without joining any guild or alliance, his core plane coordinates were the most confidential information in his entire lord career!
When Wu Wei hadn’t made any enemies, the plane coordinates were fine.
But now, with Wu Wei making enemies everywhere, once Wu Wei made his plane coordinates public, he would undoubtedly face extremely terrifying sieges.
So, from the moment Wu Wei said he would reveal his plane coordinates to the First Prince, Shi Renjun immediately realized that this madman Wu Wei really wasn’t lying.
This madman really wanted him to ascend the throne!
However, another question arose.
“Wu Wei, you asked me before what price I would pay to ascend the throne, didn’t you?”
“Now I can answer you.”
“To ascend the throne, I will give everything I have.”
“For this throne, I will become the most cold-blooded and ruthless executioner in the world!”
“But I still don’t understand, if I really ascend the throne, what do you want to gain?”
This question was crucial. Although Prince Shi Renjun already somewhat believed Wu Wei, that he really wanted to push him to the throne.
But the problem was, nothing in this world could be obtained for no reason.
If Wu Wei wanted to push him to the throne, then he would definitely need to sacrifice something.
So, the question Wu Wei asked the Prince, the Prince could also ask back to Wu Wei.
What exactly was he seeking?
However, Wu Wei did not directly answer him.
This lord from the abyss simply smiled, and then opened a new abyss teleportation gate behind him.
Then, he made a gesture of invitation to the Prince.
Seeing the Prince still hesitating, Wu Wei smiled.
“Your Highness, oh no, my future King.”
“As long as you step into this teleportation gate, you can get everything, the answers you want to know!”
“Likewise, once you step into this abyss teleportation gate, you can immediately get everything you want.”
“And here, is the endless abyss!”
As he spoke, countless darknesses condensed, rising from Wu Wei’s feet, like tentacles, wrapping around the body of this abyss lord.
Moreover, a strand of condensed darkness slowly approached him.
Prince Shi Renjun couldn’t help but frown at this scene.
However, whether it was an illusion or not.
When Prince Shi Renjun wanted to reject Wu Wei’s invitation, as this strand of condensed darkness approached him.
A hazy feeling suddenly flooded into the Prince’s mind.
It was the echo of the desires deep within his heart, the sound of all his cravings acting up.
These voices were all tempting him, luring him.
Finally.
A scarlet color that appeared from pure darkness appeared in the eyes of this Prince.
And he, also took a small step towards the abyss teleportation gate in front of him.
“....”
At this time, Wu Wei’s face was full of smiles.
Everything was moving in a direction that was beneficial to him.
Likewise, this was also the most beneficial direction for the abyss!
