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

Inside the Tianji Pavilion.

Zhao Yu looked at the scene in the Heavenly Mirror and a smile appeared on his lips.

Unexpectedly, there was a pleasant surprise. I thought the Wolf Lord would investigate the matter thoroughly and then pin all the blame on Xiaoyue Jinshang.

In that case, once the Wolf Lord dies, Xiaoyue Jindao will be unable to suppress his rage and will kill Xiaoyue Jinshang directly.

Disappointed with the Wolf Kingdom, Xiaoyue Jinshang will likely turn around and attack Xiaoyue Jindao, thus creating a breach in the established order.

Unexpectedly, the Wolf Lord was too lazy to investigate further and instead brutally protected Xiaoyue Jinquan.

Then the suppressed anger burned even more fiercely, and the target was Xiaoyue Jinquan, who was of high importance.

The seeds grew even better than expected.

Zhao Yu was increasingly looking forward to tomorrow's results.

"Next."

The mirror shook again, and the scene changed.

……

Outside the camp of Erzilang Xiaoyue Jinshang.

A lightly armed wolf army was being intercepted by another force.

The leader, Xiaoyue Jinshang, rode on his horse, looking at Xiaoyue Jinquan who had stopped him with a gloomy expression. Thinking of the vast difference between the Wolf Lord's treatment of Xiaoyue Jinquan and himself in the imperial edict, he suddenly burst into anger!

"Xiaoyue Jinquan, get the hell out of my way!"

"You ruined my chance to win this hunt, I'll kill you!"

"Whose dog's life do you want?"

A steady voice came from behind the crowd.

Tatata!

As footsteps sounded, the crowd parted to make way.

The Wolf Lord stepped out and looked at Xiaoyue Jinshang on horseback with an unfriendly expression.

The arrogance on Xiaoyue Jinshang's face froze instantly. He quickly dismounted and knelt on one knee.

"Father."

The wolf lord ignored his bow and walked up to him step by step, asking again.

"Whose dog's life do you want?"

The wolf lord's voice wasn't loud, but it still managed to put the atmosphere on hold.

"If it weren't for your second brother giving in to you, would you, a piece of trash, even dare to shout like that here?"

Xiaoyue Jinshang lowered his head even further, not daring to refute.

But he clenched his teeth secretly, his chest filled with resentment.

The wolf lord continued speaking, his tone devoid of any warmth.

"Take your trash and get to Xiaoyue Jindao's camp now. I'll deal with you after this is over."

creak!

Xiao Yue Jin Shang clenched his fists so tightly they made a sound. Finally, he abruptly raised his head and questioned:

"Father, do you really look down on me that much?"

Roar!

The entire room fell silent.

No one expected that a mere wolf cub would dare to question the wolf lord to his face!

The wolf lord frowned slightly, a murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

boom!

He kicked Xiaoyue Jinshang in the chest, knocking him to the ground.

"presumptuous!

I truly regret having given birth to such a useless piece of trash like you with your mother! Don't you even look at yourself in the river? Do you even deserve to be a wolf lord?

Enjoy your life right now, because this is already the best life you've ever lived.

After speaking, the Wolf Lord stopped looking at him and turned to Tuoba Hu, who was standing to the side, to give the order.

"Take him away. He is not to step out of the camp without my order!"

Tuoba Hu trembled and quickly bowed in agreement.

"Yes."

He quickly stepped forward, helped up the distraught Xiaoyue Jinshang, and led him away from there.

……

In the Five Wolves' camp, the tent where Xiaoyue Jin was still waiting was deathly silent.

Xiaoyue Jinshang sat on the ground, and it took him a long time to recover from the humiliation he had just suffered.

The confusion in his eyes faded, replaced by a cold hatred.

He glanced at Tuoba Hu, who was standing uneasily to the side.

"Tobahu!"

"Your subordinate is here."

"What plan do you have that will allow me to become the Wolf Lord directly?" Xiaoyue Jinshang asked, enunciating each word clearly.

Upon hearing this, Tuoba Hu was greatly alarmed, and his face instantly turned deathly pale.

He never expected His Highness to ask such a question.

"Your Highness, this...this is absolutely not allowed!"

The Wolf Kingdom system places the Wolf Lord as supreme; the Wolf Lord's orders are absolute, and there is no way to directly become the Wolf Lord.

After hearing this, Xiaoyue Jinshang let out a bitter laugh.

"No? It seems even the Wolf God isn't protecting me."

Just then, a report came from outside the tent.

"Your Highness, the Fifth Prince has arrived."

The tent flap was lifted, and Xiaoyue Jindao walked in with a dark expression.

Instead of offering a perfunctory smile, Xiaoyue Jin glanced at him and asked directly:

"What are you doing here?"

Xiaoyue Golden Blade was slightly taken aback, but he wasn't angry. Instead, he spoke with a hint of empathy:

"I'm in the same boat as you. I clearly found evidence against Xiaoyue Jinquan, but my father won't let me take revenge..."

Without hesitation, Xiaoyue Jindao recounted everything that had happened.

After finishing his complaints, he finally brought up the purpose of his visit.

"My father sent me to ask you if you've seen a Wolf Kingdom army escorting supplies?"

Xiaoyue Jinshang chuckled and said self-deprecatingly, "As long as Xiaoyue Jinquan and Father are still alive, you and I will never have a chance to rise above our circumstances."

Xiaoyue Jindao's chest heaved, clearly his thoughts had been exposed, and he angrily agreed with Xiaoyue Jinshang's words.

"Father is so biased! But I'm in a worse situation than you. My men have all been taken away by Father, and I don't even know how many will come back in the end."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoyue Jinshang let out a bitter laugh.

"Worse than me? My father even looked down on my manpower."

Xiaoyue Jindao didn't hear clearly and asked again.

Did you see that unit transporting supplies?

Tuoba Hu, standing to the side, cupped his hands and said, "Fifth Prince, that troop transport team... we accidentally..."

"I didn't see it."

Xiaoyue Jinshang interrupted him directly.

"I'm tired and need to rest. You can go now."

Tuoba Hu stood there, stunned, unable to believe his ears.

Your Highness actually chose to disobey the Wolf Lord's orders!

Didn't they know that the Wolf Lord would find out about it afterward?

After hearing this, Xiaoyue Jindao didn't think there was anything wrong with it, so he turned around and left.

Only two people remained inside the tent.

Tuoba Hu hurriedly stepped forward.

"Your Highness! This matter must not be concealed!"

"Once the Wolf Lord investigates afterwards, he'll definitely find out that we intercepted that team!"

Xiaoyue Jinshang slowly raised his head and stared at him.

"so what?"

Tuoba Hu gasped, feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

He felt he had made a huge mistake. From the beginning, he probably shouldn't have colluded with Xiaoyue Jinshang to form an alliance with Daliang for victory.

In that case, perhaps the unfamiliar Xiaoyue Jinshang wouldn't exist now...
