If you're made a fake emperor, why did you change the country's name?

Xiaoyue Jinshang deliberately probed, "Could it be... that the emperor of Great Liang is too powerful?"

Xiaoyue Jindao snorted coldly, his face showing seven parts anger and three parts disdain.

"That useless emperor of Daliang doesn't even deserve it. Even a thousand of him wouldn't be enough for me to crush with one hand."

Xiaoyue Jinshang's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly probed again, "Then... what happened?"

Xiaoyue Jindao's expression darkened, and he said in a deep voice, "That useless emperor received advance warning and set up an ambush in the city!"

"An ambush?" Xiaoyue Jinshang immediately tensed up and asked weakly, "Fifth Brother... how did you know?"

"How did I know? Of course, that useless emperor told me himself!"

"Then...who is that...?" Xiaoyue Jinshang's voice trembled involuntarily.

Howling Moon Golden Saber said viciously, "Who else but Howling Moon Golden Power could have injured me like this?"

"What? Second Brother?" Xiaoyue Jinshang was completely stunned, his face full of surprise. "This has something to do with Second Brother?"

"Second Brother?" Xiaoyue Jindao's left fist clenched so tightly it cracked, filled with murderous intent. He said coldly, "He doesn't deserve the name Xiaoyue! To prevent me from winning the competition, he actually betrayed the Wolf Kingdom and informed the Emperor of Liang!"

Xiaoyue Jinshang's mind went completely blank at this moment.

Did your second brother snitch?

What... what's going on? I was the one who snitched! How did it become my second brother?

Xiaoyue Jin Dao's bloodshot eyes were fixed on the front, and he said through gritted teeth, "He planted a spy among our people. After learning that I was going to enter the city to capture the Emperor of Liang, he was afraid that I would be the first to capture the city, so he informed the Emperor of the city and wanted me to die in the city!"

If it weren't for my formidable strength, I would be dead right here in the city!

Upon hearing this, Tuoba Hu immediately reacted, stepping forward and bowing to Xiaoyue Jindao, saying, "I never imagined that the Second Prince would do such a despicable thing for victory! Fortunately, the Fifth Prince's Wolf God protected us, allowing us to escape danger!"

After saying that, he subtly tugged at Xiaoyue Jinshang, who was still in a daze.

Xiao Yue Jin Shang jolted awake, then quickly echoed, "Yes, yes! I never expected Fifth Brother to be so lucky... uh, so incredibly strong!"

Xiaoyue Jindao glanced at his empty right sleeve, then said to Xiaoyue Jinshang, "You've lost your right hand, what's the point of forcing it?"

Unbeknownst to them, the Howling Moon Golden Blade had lost its previous strength.

He snorted coldly, then said, "That Xiaoyue Jinquan dares to betray the Wolf Kingdom! I will report this to my father and ensure he dies a horrible death!"

"Should we...report it?"

Xiao Yue Jin Shang's face froze instantly, and his heart, which had just been at ease, jumped into his throat again.

If this is reported, and my father investigates, wouldn't I be...

Tuoba Hu glanced at Xiaoyue Jinshang, whose face was deathly pale, sighed inwardly, and took another step forward.

"Fifth Prince, you absolutely mustn't!"

Xiaoyue Jindao's icy gaze immediately fell upon him: "What did you say?"

Tuoba Hu hurriedly lowered his head and reported in a deep voice: "Fifth Prince, the Second Prince has always been known for his cunning and meticulousness."

"You currently lack solid evidence. If you rashly report this, you may not only fail to convince the Wolf Lord, but the Second Prince may also turn the tables on you, accusing you of maliciously framing him after failing to gain merit!"

Upon hearing this, Xiaoyue Jinshang quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes, yes! Tuoba Hu is right! Fifth Brother, we must be very careful about this!"

Xiaoyue Jindao frowned, lost in thought.

He knew that Tuoba Hu was right; his second brother, Xiaoyue Jinquan, was indeed that kind of person.

"Then I can't get my revenge?" he asked unwillingly.

Tuoba Hu shook his head: "No. It is precisely because we want revenge that we must be even more cautious."

The best course of action for the Fifth Prince is to pretend to know nothing about this matter, act in secret, and wait for the right opportunity.

"Once we breach the imperial city, capture the Emperor of Liang, and use him as a witness, we'll present all the evidence against him. At that point, no matter how powerful the Second Prince is, he won't be able to defend himself!"

After a moment of contemplation, the flames of revenge rekindled in Xiaoyue Jindao's eyes. He nodded heavily, gritting his teeth, and said, "Fine! Then let's wait until we breach the imperial city and capture that little emperor as a witness!"

"Your Highness is wise!" Tuoba Hu immediately bowed in respect.

Xiao Yue Jin Shang also breathed a sigh of relief and quickly flattered, "Fifth Brother is brilliant! Fifth Brother is truly brilliant!"

……

The Imperial Palace, Tianji Pavilion.

Snapped!

Looking at the scene in the Heavenly Mirror, Zhao Yu excitedly slapped his thigh.

"Great! Great! I didn't expect such a surprise!"

That's an absolute stroke of luck!

In his original plan, after suffering such a great loss, the most likely reaction of Xiaoyue Jindao would be to report directly to the Wolf Lord, or simply confront Xiaoyue Jinquan.

Regardless of the outcome, given the contrasting personalities of Xiaoyue Jindao and Xiaoyue Jinquan, Xiaoyue Jindao will inevitably suffer a defeat in the end.

In fact, during the standoff, Xiaoyue Jinquan may have learned that Xiaoyue Jinshang was the real informant.

By then, Xiaoyue Jinshang will be imprisoned and awaiting death, and half of his plan will be complete.

Once he finds an opportunity to kill the Wolf Lord, the Howling Moon Golden Blade will surely take advantage of the chaos to directly seek revenge.

But if that happens, one will betray the Wolf Kingdom and the other will kill his own brother. Regardless of the reasons, under the influence of the various ambitious wolf cubs, there is a 90% chance that it will lead to the collapse of order and internal strife!

Zhao Yu's lips curled up in a smile.

Given the current situation, Xiaoyue Jindao was convinced that Xiaoyue Jinquan was the murderer, but was persuaded by Tuoba Hu to remain silent and choose to endure.

This burning hatred would grow wildly in his chest.

It will erupt completely once the Wolf Lord dies!

That's when the real show begins!

Zhao Yu leaned back in his chair with satisfaction and waved to the Elder of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion beside him.

"Next."

The Elder of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion immediately channeled his inner energy, and the image in the Heavenly Secrets Mirror fluctuated once more...
