A proud smile appeared on Yuan Tianding's lips. He waved his hand and led the guards into the passage.

The passage was filled with an ancient and mysterious atmosphere, and the luminous pearls on the wall emitted a faint light, illuminating their path forward.

The guards couldn't help but feel a little nervous. They followed Yuan Tianding closely, holding weapons tightly in their hands and watching everything around them.

Yuan Tianding, however, seemed particularly calm. His steps were steady and powerful, as if he knew everything here well.

As they went deeper, the atmosphere in the passage became more solemn.

Suddenly, there was a slight sound from the front, like someone whispering.

Yuan Tianding immediately stopped and signaled the guards to stay quiet.

They listened quietly, and the sound seemed to become clearer and clearer.

"It's the eldest princess and Fang Yue!" a guard whispered.

Yuan Tianding nodded slightly, a cold and stern light flashed in his eyes.

"They're right up front, be careful."

They continued walking forward and finally came to the huge underground palace.

The eldest princess and Fang Yue in the palace were standing in front of the shining door. When they heard the movement, they immediately turned around.

The eldest princess's face instantly turned pale, and she held Fang Yue's hand tightly.

Fang Yue's face was solemn, and his eyes showed firm determination.

"Princess, Fang Yue, do you think you can escape?" Yuan Tianding said with a sneer.

Fang Yue took a step forward, stood in front of the eldest princess, and said coldly:

"Yuan Tianding, for your own selfish gain, you colluded with foreign enemies and framed Zhongliang. I will make you pay the price today."

Yuan Tianding laughed loudly: "Only you? You dare to go against me? You can't escape today."

With that said, Yuan Tianding waved his hand, and the guards immediately rushed forward and surrounded Fang Yue and the eldest princess.

Fang Yue was not afraid. He drew out his long sword and stared at the surrounding guards with burning eyes.

"Princess, please step back and I will deal with them."

Fang Yue whispered, his tone full of determination.

The eldest princess bit her lip and nodded slightly. She knew she couldn't cause trouble to Fang Yue at this time.

Fang Yue brandished his long sword with a fierce force. With one stab of the sword, the guards in front of him who were not weak in cultivation fell down in pieces.

The surrounding guards were afraid, but under Yuan Tianding's angry shouts, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue the siege.

Fang Yue has a strong figure, like a cheetah shuttled among the crowd, and every time he swings the long sword in his hand, it brings out a cold light.

The eldest princess watched Fang Yue's battle nervously from the side, holding the magic weapon taken out of the treasure box tightly in her hand, always ready to help Fang Yue when he was in danger.

However, Yuan Tianding did not just sit idly by. His eyes turned cold, his hands quickly formed seals, and a powerful spell force struck Fang Yue.

Fang Yue felt the strong pressure coming from behind, and quickly turned sideways to avoid it, but was still hit by the aftermath of the spell, and his body was slightly shaken.

He gritted his teeth, stabilized his body, and continued to fight the guards.

"Humph, I don't know whether to live or die."

Yuan Tianding snorted coldly and cast the spell again.

This time, the power of the spell was even more powerful, and the entire underground palace began to tremble.

When the eldest princess saw this, she could no longer sit idly by and ignore it.

She raised the magic weapon in her hand and muttered something. The light on the magic weapon shone brightly, and a bright light shined directly at Yuan Tianding's spell.

Two powerful forces collided in the air, making a deafening sound. More cracks appeared on the walls of the underground palace, and some gravel fell.

Fang Yue took the opportunity to swing his sword again, and several more guards fell under his sword.

But under the pressure of Yuan Tianding, the guards still came like a tide.

Some wounds gradually appeared on Fang Yue's body, and his clothes were dyed red with blood.

"Fang Yue, be careful!" the eldest princess shouted anxiously.

While using magic weapons to resist Yuan Tianding's incoming spells, she also paid attention to Fang Yue's safety.

Yuan Tianding became increasingly angry when he saw Fang Yue and the eldest princess resisting tenaciously.

He increased the output of the spell, and powerful rays of light flickered in the underground palace.

Fang Yue dodged to avoid a fatal spell attack, and then quickly rushed towards Yuan Tianding.

He knew that only by defeating Yuan Tianding could this battle end.

Yuan Tianding sneered and faced Fang Yue's attack.

The two instantly engaged in a fierce close combat, with Fang Yue's long sword constantly colliding with Yuan Tianding's spells, sending out bursts of sparks.

In the fierce battle, Fang Yue gradually discovered that although Yuan Tianding's spells were powerful, they also had their weaknesses.

He began to look for flaws in Yuan Tianding's spell and prepared to give him a fatal blow.

After some observation, Fang Yue finally discovered a flaw in Yuan Tianding's spell.

He seized the opportunity and unleashed his strongest blow, stabbing Yuan Tianding with a fierce momentum.

Yuan Tianding was shocked and turned sideways to avoid it, but Fang Yue's sword was extremely fast and still opened a deep gash on his shoulder.

Blood gushed out instantly, staining Yuan Tianding's clothes red.

"hateful!"

Yuan Tianding roared angrily, his eyes full of anger and unwillingness.

He cast another spell, trying to save the situation.

However, he was injured at this time, and the power of the spell was greatly reduced.

Fang Yue took advantage of the victory to pursue, not giving Yuan Tianding a chance to breathe.

He waved his long sword like a god of war, pressing forward step by step.

When the guards around him saw that Yuan Tianding was injured, their hearts began to waver.

They didn't know whether to keep fighting or take the opportunity to escape.

The eldest princess also took the opportunity to strengthen the attack of the magic weapon, and rays of light shot at the guards, causing them to fall into chaos.

"You bunch of losers! Hurry up and get in!"

Yuan Tianding roared at the guards. But the guards had been frightened by the momentum of Fang Yue and the eldest princess and did not dare to step forward easily.

Fang Yue saw the right moment and unleashed another sharp blow.

This time, his long sword stabbed directly into Yuan Tianding's chest.

Yuan Tianding was unable to dodge and was pierced by the sword.

His eyes widened with disbelief on his face.

Then, he slowly fell down and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Master Imperial Master!" the guards shouted in horror.

They looked at the fallen Yuan Tianding, their hearts filled with fear.

Some guards began to flee the underground palace, fearing that they would be chased by Fang Yue and the eldest princess.

Fang Yue and the eldest princess finally breathed a sigh of relief.

They looked at Yuan Tianding who fell to the ground, and their hearts were filled with the joy of victory.

"We finally succeeded." The eldest princess said, with tears in her eyes.

Fang Yue nodded, with a happy smile on his face.

"Princess, this is only the first step. We must expose Yuan Tianding's crimes to Your Majesty as soon as possible so that Da Chu can restore its former peace."

The eldest princess wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and her expression became determined.

"That's right, we can't relax. Now we have to leave here quickly and return to the palace."

They quickly packed their things and prepared to leave the underground palace.

Before leaving, the eldest princess took another look at the treasure box, silently praying in her heart for a better future for Da Chu.

They walked cautiously along the passage. The passage was still filled with a mysterious atmosphere, but at this time their mood was much more relaxed.

When they walked out of the passage and came to the valley of Taihuang Mountain, the sun shone on them, as if cheering for their victory.

The eldest princess took a deep breath and felt the breath of nature.

After the Emperor of Dachu learned about the death of the imperial master Yuan Tianding, he fell into panic.

Yuan Tianding's forces in the DPRK were intertwined, and his sudden death undoubtedly had a huge impact on the situation in Dachu.

The emperor paced back and forth in the imperial study, frowning.

He knew very well that once Yuan Tianding died, the forces that were attached to Yuan Tianding would probably be ready to take action, and foreign enemies might also take advantage of this opportunity to take action.

"Come here, convey my decree, and quickly convene the important officials in the court to discuss countermeasures." The emperor said loudly.

Not long after, the important officials of the court came to the imperial study room one after another. Everyone looked solemn, and they all understood that Da Chu was facing a serious situation at this moment.

"Yuan Tianding's death means that Fang Yue has fully recovered. This person's strength cannot be underestimated, and I don't know if he will be harmful to me. My dear friends, what do you think of this matter?" The emperor asked worriedly.

An old minister took a step forward, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, although Fang Yue is brave, I think he is with the eldest princess. If your Majesty can treat him with kindness and power, and recruit him as your consort, he may be able to be used by your Majesty. Serve Da Chu.”

The emperor fell into deep thought after listening to the old minister's words.

After a moment, he nodded slightly and said: "What Ai Qing said is not unreasonable. But this matter needs long-term consideration."

Fang Yue took the eldest princess back to the capital of Da Chu without stopping.

The moment they stepped into the imperial capital, the bustling scene was in sharp contrast to the waves in their hearts.

The bustling crowds on the streets seemed unaware of the impending storm in the palace.

After Fang Yue came up with the idea of ​​abdicating the Great Chu Emperor, a complicated look flashed in his eyes.

The eldest princess noticed something strange about him and asked softly: "Fang Yue, what are you thinking about?"

Fang Yue was silent for a moment and said slowly: "Princess, the emperor of Da Chu is now fatuous and incompetent, allowing Yuan Tianding to act recklessly, causing the country to fall into such a predicament. I think he is no longer suitable to rule Da Chu."

The eldest princess's face changed slightly, she knew the seriousness of this idea.

"Fang Yue, don't act rashly on this matter. If you act rashly, it may cause greater turmoil."

Fang Yue nodded slightly, but the belief in his heart did not waver.

"Princess, I understand the risks, but if he continues to be the emperor, the disputes between the two countries will probably never stop."

The eldest princess fell into deep thought after hearing Fang Yue's words. She knew that what Fang Yue said was true. The current emperor was indeed fatuous and the country was in trouble because of him. But it is not easy for an emperor to abdicate, and the risks and consequences are unpredictable.

"Fang Yue, do you have any specific plans?" the eldest princess asked.

Fang Yue frowned slightly and said: "Princess, we need to first contact those ministers and generals who are dissatisfied with the emperor to win their support. At the same time, we need to expose the emperor's foolish actions and Yuan Tianding's crimes, so that the people can Only in this way can we have a chance to abdicate the emperor."

The eldest princess said worriedly: "Although this plan is feasible to a certain extent, it is also very dangerous. Once it fails, we will face catastrophe."

Fang Yue held the eldest princess's hand and said firmly:

"Princess, for the future of Da Chu, we must give it a brave try. No matter how great the risk is, we cannot retreat."

The eldest princess looked at Fang Yue's firm eyes, and the worry in her heart eased slightly.

She nodded and said, "Okay, Fang Yue, I'll go with you."

So Fang Yue and the princess began to secretly contact those ministers and generals in the court who were dissatisfied with the emperor.

They acted very cautiously, and every meeting was arranged in a very hidden place.

Those ministers and generals who were dissatisfied with the emperor were also full of doubts and worries at first.

After all, it is an extremely dangerous thing to let the emperor abdicate. Once it fails, the consequences will be disastrous.

However, when Fang Yue and the princess explained in detail the various harms caused by the emperor's stupidity and the difficulties that Da Chu might face in the future, some people began to waver.

They recalled the injustice and oppression they suffered under the emperor's rule, and a glimmer of hope gradually ignited in their hearts.

An old general said: "I have been in the court for many years, watching the country decline day by day, and I have long been dissatisfied. If Fang Yue and the princess can really lead Da Chu on the right track, we are willing to support them with all our strength."

As time went on, more and more ministers and generals joined their camp.

They began to discuss a specific action plan together, how to expose the emperor's crimes, how to control the situation at a critical moment, and every detail was repeatedly discussed and considered.

At the same time, Fang Yue and the princess did not forget the power of the people.

They sent their confidants to spread the emperor's stupid deeds and Yuan Tianding's evil deeds among the people, which aroused strong indignation among the people.

The people began to question the emperor's rule and were full of worries about the future.

The emperor was still immersed in his own world of power at this time, and knew nothing about the actions of Fang Yue and the princess.

He still squandered the country's wealth, indulged in pleasure, and was indifferent to the suffering of the people.

But some of the emperor's confidants began to notice something strange, and they reported some suspicious signs to the emperor.

The emperor began to be alert, and he ordered to strengthen the guard of the palace and investigate those who were dissatisfied with him.

Fang Yue and the princess knew that their actions must be accelerated.

They decided to launch a final attack at an appropriate time to make the emperor abdicate and bring new hope to Da Chu.

Finally, a perfect opportunity appeared.

The emperor decided to hold a grand banquet in the palace and invited many nobles and officials to attend.

Fang Yue and the princess thought this was a golden opportunity to expose the emperor's crimes at the banquet and force him to abdicate.

They carefully planned their action plan.

On the day of the banquet, Fang Yue led a group of loyal generals and soldiers to sneak into the palace and hide in various key locations.

The princess, dressed in gorgeous clothes, entered the banquet hall with some trusted ministers. (End of this chapter)
