Huaibei coastal waters.

Inside the palace in the underwater territory.

Cang Yu knelt down alone in the center of the hall, and on the high platform directly above him stood a shadow.

This phantom has a graceful figure and is none other than the Emperor and Empress.

At this time, the left hand of the empress's shadow was raised, and in the palm of his hand, he held the holy fruit with a pale orange skin.

Cang Yu knelt on the ground with her head close to the ground, not daring to move.

The emperor and the empress had not spoken for several minutes, which made him extremely nervous and even a little scared.

What happened in Dazhoushan...will the emperor and empress know about it?

Whether he cooperates with Fang Yu or he kills the seriously injured Cangyang... this is a capital crime!

"No, it's impossible... If the queen mother knew those things, I would be dead and she wouldn't be able to give me a chance to explain." Cang Yu comforted herself in her heart.

"……very good."

Just when Cang Yu was so nervous that her heart was in a state of confusion, the shadow in front of her finally made a sound.

Cang Yu was shocked all over.

"Raise your head." The Queen's voice sounded again.

Cang Yu slowly raised her head and looked forward.

At this time, the shadow of the emperor slowly floated towards him.

Soon, he arrived in front of him.

Cang Yu looked up at the flashing shadow in front of her and swallowed, feeling both expectant and nervous in her heart.

"Cangyu, your performance on this trip... is better than that of your three brothers. The Queen Mother... is very pleased." The Empress said.

Hearing these words, Cangyu's face changed slightly, and she tried her best to pretend to be sad, and choked with sobs: "The queen mother, three brothers, and Master Moxu... all died for the holy fruit. I can get it."

Holy Fruit...they also have great contributions."

The emperor lowered his head slightly and looked at Cang Yu.

Because it was a virtual shadow, Cangyu could not see the expression of the emperor and empress at this time.

"Like Your Majesty, I always only look at the results." The Empress said calmly, "Whoever allows me to see good results will be rewarded. As for the losers...there is no need to mention them again. Their death is just

They are smearing the reputation of our Shenhai Royal Family."

Hearing these words, Cangyu felt much more relaxed.

But at the same time, my hands and feet felt cold.

Although he knew early on that the Iron-Blooded Law in the Divine Sea Dynasty had always been like this.

But when he really heard the indifference and coldness in the empress's tone, he still felt cold inside.

Cangyang, Cangyue, Cangyun... these three people, like Cangyu, are the biological children of the emperor and empress.

The three heirs were killed together in battle, and as a mother, the emperor and the empress did not even feel a trace of sadness.

The coldness in her tone was more like the anger caused by the damage caused by the death of these three people to the reputation of the royal family, or... the impact on her own reputation.

Cangyu knew in her heart that the emperor and the empress had the same attitude towards other heirs...and the same towards him.

Just as Cang Yu was thinking wildly, he suddenly felt a warmth on his forehead.

The phantom of the emperor and empress in front of him placed his right hand on his forehead.

"bass!"

The soul jade mark on Cang Yu's forehead glowed with dazzling light.

The warmth gradually turned into a burning sensation.

"ah……"

The burning sensation became stronger and stronger, causing pain, making Cang Yu couldn't help but scream.

However, the emperor's hand was pressed tightly against his forehead, and he couldn't break free even if he tried.

The soul jade is like a stone in lava, the heat is getting higher and higher, almost to the point of being unbearable.

Cang Yu screamed repeatedly, her body twitching.

This process lasted for nearly two minutes.

"Click!"

At a certain critical point, a soft sound came from the soul jade.

The empress' phantom's hand was withdrawn.

At the same time, the burning sensation in the soul jade began to subside.

At this time, Cang Yu had collapsed on the ground, unable to move.

"This is the reward I give you. From today on, you have entered the first echelon of candidates for the crown prince." The empress said lightly, "But if you want to become the crown prince, you still need to see your future performance."

"You only need to outperform all candidates to become the crown prince."

"This is a rare opportunity, cherish it."

After saying these words, the shadow of the emperor and empress began to slowly disappear.

Silence returned to the hall again.

Cangyu lay on the ground, motionless.

After half an hour passed, he breathed a sigh of relief and stood up reluctantly.

His face turned pale, he raised his right hand and covered his forehead.

The place where the soul jade is on his forehead is still hot.

At this time, the soul jade was still flashing with blue light, but it seemed brighter than before.

"Candidate for the crown prince..." Cang Yu's eyes flashed.

He didn't expect that he would approach the position of Crown Prince so quickly.

This is also the position Fang Yu wants to push him up to.

only……

Cangyu felt a little scared when she thought about the princes with the best combat power in the royal family...

Even if Fang Yu can continue to help him win the Holy Fruit and push him to the position of crown prince... he still needs to face the challenges of these princes.

Those princes in the first echelon...all have extraordinary fighting abilities.

Their goal is to become the crown prince.

If Cang Yu wants to sit on the throne of the crown prince, only the support of the emperor and the empress is definitely not enough.

Sooner or later he will have to face these first-tier princes and defeat them one by one.

In this process... with the style of the emperor and empress, it is absolutely impossible to provide help.

What to do?

On Cangyu's own words, even ten... would not be able to contend with these princes whose combat prowess is incredible!

But if you want Fang Yu to help...how can you help?

Could it be that Fang Yu is allowed to infiltrate directly into the royal family?

Not only is this extremely difficult, but the risks are also quite high.

Once discovered... Cangyu will die without a burial place.

After thinking for a moment, Cang Yu's face turned pale and her heart sank to the bottom of her heart.

When things came to a close, he realized that...the road to becoming a prince was extremely dangerous!

…

"Becoming a candidate for the crown prince so soon? This is completely according to my plan." Fang Yu said while sitting on the top floor of the bamboo building.

"I must tell you that if I want to become the crown prince, in addition to my mother, I also have to deal with the princes in the first echelon of the royal family. Their strength... is much higher than mine! If I face them, I'm afraid I will die without any body parts!"

Cangyu said with some excitement.

"How many princes are there in the first echelon?" Fang Yu asked.

"..." Cang Yu thought for a while and replied, "I know at least eight!"

"Eight... the problem is not big, just solve it slowly later." Fang Yu said calmly.

"I have to tell you, these eight princes... are different from my three brothers. They are real monsters! Their strength..." It seemed that because of the disapproval in Fang Yu's tone, Cang Yu became more and more excited.

stand up.

"Okay, don't make any noise." Fang Yu interrupted Cang Yu and said, "My ultimate goal is not to make you the prince, but to make you the emperor of Shenhai."
To be continued...
