Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!
50 Chapter 50: Puppet
"Father, you can't be serious! You want me to go to his room at night?!"
A loud and shocked voice of the Princess echoed in the room. However, there was no one in the room other than the King himself. No one else could have heard her.
"I know you only want to pursue strength. However, this is an opportunity that we won't get again! You know how hard it is to get near the Royals of the Eternal Dynasty!" The King sighed. Even he didn't want to do it this way, but he didn't want to lose this opportunity either.
If the Third Prince were to fall in love with his daughter and they were to marry, the reputation and influence of the Esti Kingdom would soar to new heights, ensuring that no future threats could harm them.
Even though it was for the sake of the Esti Kingdom, that wasn't the only reason. His daughter's goal was to become stronger and who else could help her reach that goal but the Dynasty which had all the precious resources one might need!
"Even if you want me to get close to a Prince, did he have to be the one?!" The Princess frowned. Initially, she didn't know who Xu Shan was. However, when her father told her the truth, she was stunned. Even she had heard about the infamous Third Prince!
"I don't want to get close to that monster! If you want me to get close to the Dynasty, shouldn't I try to get close to the First or the Second Prince? They have the chance of becoming the future Emperor!"
To her, the Third Prince held no significant status, merely a mortal with no real power or authority. Even in the Royal Hall, it was his guard who took charge of all actions. In her opinion, he was merely an individual who relied on external assistance to assert himself.
Initially, she had thought that since Xu Shan was being followed by a person like Ye Han, he might be a talented individual who wasn't showing his skills. However, when she heard that he was the Infamous Third Prince, all her hopes were crushed. He was just a useless man, no different from Ji Yang who was killed!
"Do you think the First and the Second Prince are going to come to this rundown place?" The King frowned, rubbing the back of his neck in frustration. "You might not even be able to see their face all your life."
"Moreover, the third prince is more favored by the Emperor than the First and Second Prince. Almost everyone knows that. So it's still not certain who will get the throne. It's just that the Third Prince isn't interested in the politics of the throne!" he further explained.
"After you make him fall for you, you can manipulate him into desiring the throne! You can also do whatever you want, with his name. If you can manipulate him enough, who knows, you might have a slave who becomes the Emperor of the Eternal Dynasty!"
As he spoke on, his breaths grew quicker, betraying a glint of avarice in his gaze. Both the First and Second Prince exuded strength, and their aspirations were plain for all to see. It was impossible to manipulate or control them.
However, Xu Shan was just a little brat who was a mere mortal without even a Celestial Spirit. Moreover, he was just a boy, running aimlessly. He was perfect for them to control and make their puppet!
The King had thought long and hard about it. It was their chance to take over the entire Dynasty after all, becoming the true Overlord! All they had to do was to control Xu Shan and manipulate the Emperor's love for his third child!
The Princess was slightly taken aback by the greed she noticed on her father's face. However, the goal wasn't far from what she wanted! She wanted strength... Strength to be invincible in this world!
If she could use the Eternal Dynasty, she could get any resource that she wanted... Things that even geniuses with Nine Star Celestial Spirits couldn't receive! Moreover, if she became the true master of the Eternal Dynasty through Xu Shan, wasn't it even better?
Although she didn't display it outwardly, a hint of greed had crept into her heart, causing her to partially align with her father's beliefs.
In the end, she nodded her head. "I'll do it! I'll make that little brat fall for me to an extent where he'd be willing to give up his life to protect me!"
Her fists were tightly clenched. Even though she never paid attention to matters between men and women, she knew everything there was to know. She also knew that her looks were her biggest weapon against Xu Shan and she was confident in her looks!
Even though she acted as if she didn't notice, she knew that almost every youngster, and even some seniors looked at her with lustful eyes, wanting to make her theirs! She didn't believe her looks were going to fail her now!
She took a deep breath. After finding out about which room Xu Shan was in, she left the room and went straight for the young prince.
As she entered the hallway leading to Xu Shan's room, an unexpected occurrence took place. The surroundings quickly turned pitch-black, leaving her with no vision. In addition, her thoughts felt muddled, as if she were under the influence of a spell.
She heard inexplicable voices in her mind that urged her to kill Xu Shan. The intensity of these voices was so overwhelming that it made her feel as though she was losing her sanity.
She wasn't the only one who experienced this phenomenon. Almost everyone, from the lowest of servants to the King went through the same. It was as if some devilish energy was taking control of their body, commanding them to kill Xu Shan and Ye Han.
There were only two people in the entire palace who weren't affected by this. They were Xu Shan and Ye Han. It was unclear if they were just immune to it, or they were specifically not targeted, so as to not make them suspicious.
One thing was for certain... Almost everyone in the Palace wanted to kill Xu Shan!
