Ultragene Warlord

”We knew we couldn ’t control it fully, so we didn ’t try.
All we did was make it want to fight. ”

Within the camp, Zhang Lie was happily consuming his roast meat.

[For consuming the flesh of a peak-grade jade rattlesnake, you received one peak gene fragment.
Current total: 70]

The snake meat was fresh and delicious, and the entertainment was quite interesting as well.
When he saw the second prince backstab the crown prince, Zhang Lie whooped in delight.

”He ’s finally made a move! Is it time for the climax? ” He wasn ’t surprised; this was within his predictions.
The second prince had been behaving erratically, and Zhang Lie suspected that one of the princes was the mastermind.

The ninth prince certainly couldn ’t have done it, and the crown prince didn ’t have a motive.
He was the successor to the throne in all but name.

In that case, the culprit had to be among the seven princes.
The third and fifth princes were mired in battle, caught unawares by the beast stampede, so he could exclude them both as well.
Zhang Lie found the second and eighth princes most suspicious.

The reason he suspected the eighth prince was because he still didn ’t understand why the Zijing clan was willing to become his backer, but it was the second prince ’s strange behavior that ultimately drew his eye.

The second prince lived constantly in the crown prince ’s shadow, just one step from the throne.
As long as the crown prince were around, the second prince would never be able to succeed; that feeling would eventually overwhelm him and cause him to do something crazy.

As a result, Zhang Lie wasn ’t surprised when he learned that the second prince was the mastermind.
He had the power to stop the second prince from attacking the crown prince, of course, but he chose not to interfere.

He had no reason to do so; the crown prince ’s death would only help the ninth prince.
As the second prince had said, the crown prince was far too outstanding, and such an outstanding competitor had to die.
Otherwise, he would have to face the ninth prince in battle someday.

A quick look at bit.ly/3iBfjkV will leave you more fulfilled.

The crown prince might be the ninth prince ’s only backer now, but the ninth prince would gain more from the crown prince ’s downfall than he would lose.
After all, the crown prince himself posed more of a threat than the other seven princes combined.

Just then, a golden beam of light shot toward the air, and Zhang Lie turned around.
The Jindao fighter was making his move.
Before the pillar of light could do anything to the camp, however, an even more imposing aura emanated from the golden tent at its center.

All living creatures of the world, in that one immortal moment, seemed to prostrate themselves to the king of the realm.

”He ’s made his move, has he? ” The king of the realm might have seemed to be on his deathbed, but Zhang Lie knew that he had kept some of his strength in reserve.

The Jindao fighter might be strong, but he was nothing in the face of the king.
It took just a moment for the king of the realm to annihilate him.

Within the tent, the king of the realm stood up with such authority that everyone knelt down.
The ninth prince bowed his head and called out, ”Your majesty! ”

The guards present did the same, their gazes scorching.
This was their king, the king of the realm!

Suddenly, from behind the second prince, deep within the hunting grounds, came a competing aura, a primordial aura that heralded disaster.
Zhang Lie knew what this signified—a third-realm disaster-grade lifeform.
It looked as though he couldn ’t remain a bystander any longer…
