Upon hearing this, Davis rolled his eyes immediately...
"Is that what you think?? If I were a bit older, perhaps it would be a good thing."
"But don't forget how old I am now?? Even if I have ministers accompanying me to Martial Soul City, facing the Pope of the Martial Soul Hall, I can't possibly hold the upper hand in the conversation!"
So, this matter is completely disadvantageous for me!
The soldier had a look of shame appear on his cheeks upon hearing this...
"Apologies, Prince Davis, I was a bit ignorant and failed to consider this point!"
After hearing what was just said, he realized how difficult the task assigned by Emperor Xingluo was for Davis!!
He then suggested, "Perhaps Prince Davis, you could meet with His Majesty in person? Maybe it might change his mind."
Davis sighed, shaking his head, "It's no use, since Father said so, even if I go personally, nothing will change!"
The former pursed his lips, "Then, Your Highness, what should we do next?"
For a moment, he was also at a loss, not knowing what to do!
Davis shot a glance at him, "What else can we do? We can only set off for Martial Soul City tomorrow."
Since the task cannot be shirked, we can only do our best to accomplish it!!
The next second, he seemed to remember something...
A trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, "Right, I recall that Dai Mubai has left the Xingluo Empire, hasn't he??"
The other immediately nodded in response, "Yes, Your Highness, Prince Dai Mubai had left the Xingluo Empire many years ago!"
Previously, Davis had specifically sent him to investigate the whereabouts of Dai Mubai!
However, since the latter left without any servants, it was impossible to find out his exact location, only that he went to the Tiandou Empire!
Davis took a deep breath, "If I remember correctly, after leaving the Xingluo Empire, he should have gone to the Tiandou Empire. Have you found his whereabouts?"
The soldier's pupils contracted, exclaiming, "Your Highness, you plan to..."
Davis did not deny it but revealed a cold smile, "That's right. As long as that guy is alive, he is likely to become my obstacle. So, I might as well use this trip to the Martial Soul City as a cover to conveniently get rid of him, eliminating future troubles!"
The former furrowed his brow, reminding, "Your Highness, is it necessary? Since Dai Mubai has left the Xingluo Empire, he probably has no face to come back and compete for the throne with you!"
"Especially since His Majesty despises cowards!"
Unbeknownst to him, this statement seemed to have angered Davis....
He looked displeased at the other, reprimanding, "What, are you trying to teach me how to do things? Don't forget, without me, you and your family would have been dead long ago!!"
The former quickly shook his head, "I wouldn't dare. Your Highness's life-saving grace, I have always remembered and dare not forget!"
"I am just concerned that if those ministers find out about this, they might be dissatisfied!"
Davis, as if hearing a joke, chuckled, "Haha, ministers?? To put it nicely, they are ministers of the Xingluo Empire. To put it bluntly, they are just dogs of our royal household!"
"If wanted, they could be replaced at any time!!"
"Besides, this is the style of the royal family of the Xingluo Empire, only those who survive are eligible to vie for the throne."
Even Father seized the throne in this way!
So, as long as it's not publicly exposed, not to mention Dai Mubai, it's no problem to get rid of all the other princes!!
There is only one future emperor of the Xingluo Empire, and that is Davis himself!!
Feeling full of confidence, the tone of Davis suddenly shifted, "Alright, enough of this. Go find out Dai Mubai's whereabouts immediately. Tomorrow, I want to know his specific location in the Tiandou Empire!!"
The other's forehead broke out in cold sweat immediately, "Damn... should I report Prince Davis's intentions to deal with Prince Dai Mubai to His Majesty?"
If I report it, there's a chance His Majesty might blame Prince Davis!
But if I don't, if any clues are discovered, not only will I be in trouble but so will the prince!!
Of course, the key issue is that Prince Dai Mubai left the Xingluo Empire many years ago without leaving any information!
Finding out his whereabouts within a day is nearly impossible!!
Seeing no response from the other, Davis expressed some suspicion in his eyes, "Why have you been acting strangely since you came back from Father, what really happened?"
The soldier quickly shook his head in denial, "No... nothing happened, it's just that I was overwhelmed by His Majesty's presence at that time, even to this moment I haven't recovered!!"
Hearing this, Davis immediately felt relieved and mocked himself, "Haha, if that's the case it's normal, after all, when talking with Father, I have to be extremely cautious. Sometimes, it's not like father and son, more like a ruler and subject!!"
Even saying something wrong, could lead to being executed just like the ministers!!
The former didn't continue the topic, bowed slightly, "Your Highness, I understand your words, time is pressing, I will go investigate Dai Mubai's whereabouts immediately!!"
With that, he didn't wait for a response, and hastily turned to leave...
...
The next day!!
After Emperor Xingluo and the ministers bid farewell to Davis and the others...
The former suddenly revealed a strange smile, "Haha, it's been so long, and that boy Davis still intends to make a move against Dai Mubai, is he wary that he may try to seize the throne in the future? Interesting!"
"However, even I couldn't find out about that child's whereabouts, you think you can do it??"
As the emperor of the Xingluo Empire, he used many resources, but still couldn't find out any information about Dai Mubai!
He didn't believe that the latter could do it!!
The nearby minister cautiously said, "Your Majesty, do you not intend to stop Prince Davis from making a move against Prince Dai Mubai?"
"After all, they are both your children!"
Emperor Xingluo shook his head in denial, "My children?? No, you're mistaken, only those who survive to inherit the throne have the right to be my children."
"Although Dai Mubai is quite talented, his character is weak, and he arbitrarily fled the Xingluo Empire for the Tiandou Empire!"
"Such a person has lost the qualification to inherit the throne, so he is not fit to be my child!!
There was a time when he had high hopes for Dai Mubai!
Unfortunately, the guy didn't even dare to fight against Davis and the other princes and fled from the Xingluo Empire!
This is simply a disgrace to the royal family!!
If Davis can conveniently deal with this remnant this time, it's not a bad thing!!
Seeing the other say this, of course, the minister concurred, "Your Majesty is wise, indeed only Prince Davis is most suited to be the next heir to the throne!!"
