1580 Finally Revealing His Ambition (2)
Sensing the madness in Duanmu Ge’s eyes, Duanmu Heng frowned slightly. “If it weren’t for Eldest Brother pressing me step by step, I wouldn’t have fought back.”
In the past, he only had eyes on cultivating. If he wasn’t forced into a corner, he wouldn’t have fought for something he had never thought of.
“So, Fourth Brother, you aren’t interested in the throne?” Duanmu Ge said in surprise.
Duanmu Heng nodded. “That’s right.”
“Hahaha…”
Looking at Duanmu Ge, who suddenly burst into laughter, Duanmu Heng frowned even more.
Duanmu Ge suddenly stopped laughing and said coldly, “Fourth Brother, your acting is really good. I almost fell into your trap.”
“Second Brother, I’m telling the truth,” Duanmu Heng said sincerely.
Duanmu Ge shook his head. “I’ve never let a tiger return to the mountain, so whether you’re telling the truth or not, I won’t let you go.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Duanmu Ge raised his hand and made a gesture. Five men in black instantly appeared and surrounded Duanmu Heng.
Duanmu Heng’s heart tightened, and he subconsciously looked in the direction where Lu Zijia and the others were resting.
Duanmu Ge saw his reaction and sneered. “I’ve already asked my men to lure Alchemist Lu and the others away. Fourth Brother, don’t expect them to save you. You must die today!”
Duanmu Heng’s furious gaze suddenly landed on Duanmu Ge. “You aren’t hesitant to kill your own brothers. Is the throne really that important to you?!”
“Of course it’s important.”
Duanmu Ge replied without hesitation, “Only when I sit there will no one dare to laugh at me again. Everyone has to be respectful to me! Do you know how long I’ve waited for this day? I’ve waited for thirty-six years. How can it not be important?”
It was as if Duanmu Heng was certain that he would die today. Duanmu Ge didn’t hide his ambitions and actions anymore.
“Besides, I’ve already assassinated our eldest brother, so what more you, Fourth Brother. Don’t blame me, your second brother, for being cruel. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being born into the royal family!”
Duanmu Heng suddenly widened his eyes. “Eldest Brother? You really killed him!”
Previously, he was just guessing. Now that he heard the truth from Duanmu Ge, he couldn’t help feeling shocked.
Duanmu Ge chuckled. “He didn’t die at my hands. I just passed a few words to his beloved concubine, so she helped me deal with him obediently. It was really a pity. That concubine was really a beauty.”
The beloved concubine Duanmu Ge was talking about was undoubtedly Cheng Su’er.
Even though Cheng Su’er hated Duanmu Chun for torturing her, she certainly didn’t dare to assassinate a prince.
However, Duanmu Ge actually used her mother as a threat. In the end, she could only give in obediently, because she knew very well that Duanmu Chun wouldn’t make a fuss, or even send someone to protect her mother.
All in all, Duanmu Chun could be considered to have died at his hands.
“Alright, I’ve already told you what I should tell you. Fourth Brother, have a safe journey.”
As soon as Duanmu Ge finished speaking, the five men in black instantly attacked Duanmu Heng.
However, at the critical moment, four figures suddenly appeared and instantly killed the five men in black who surrounded Duanmu Heng.
Bang, bang, bang…
Poof, poof…
The five men in black didn’t have time to react at all. They only felt a chill on their necks and quickly lost consciousness.
