Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 1779 The Crown (9)

Yun Xing cursed furiously. These guards actually dared to disobey him. If he had the opportunity later, he would definitely kill them.

“Let’s leave, Your Majesty.” Eunuch Gao urged Yun Xing and reached out to grab him.

At that moment, Yun Tian retrieved several brownish liquid vials and hurled them towards Yun Xing and Eunuch Gao. They were caught off guard and couldn’t react in time.

The vials immediately hit them and broke, drenching their bodies in the liquid.

The expressions of Yun Xing and Eunuch Gao changed drastically because they recognized the liquid. It was none other than oil!

As long as there was a spark of fire, they would undoubtedly burn to death.

“You!” Yun Xing couldn’t believe that Yun Tian had prepared this.

Yun Tian looked at him coldly and said. “I have failed to save the country. The only thing I can do right now is eliminate a plague like you.”

“I am the emperor. How dare you try to kill me!?” Yun Xing had gone mad. He had never experienced hardships since he was young and couldn’t handle this situation.

Meanwhile, Eunuch Gao’s mind spun rapidly as he tried to find a way out. However, before he could think of anything, the fire had already reached the main hall, which frightened him.

Without hesitation, Eunuch Gao swiftly removed his clothes and tried hard to remove the remaining oil from his body.

“Take off your clothes, Your Majesty! We don’t have time now.” Eunuch Gao urged.

“F*ck off!” Yun Xing angrily pushed Eunuch Gao away.

Because he was in a state of madness, Yun Xing couldn’t control his strength well. Coupled with the oil on the ground, Eunuch Gao lost his balance and fell towards the back door, where the fire had erupted.

“Arghhh!” Instantly, Eunuch Gao was caught on fire. His entire body was engulfed in flames, causing him to scream in agony. 𝘭𝒾𝑏𝑟𝑒𝒶𝒹.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Yun Xing was jolted awake by the scream. He turned to look at Eunuch Gao, who had transformed into a human torch in shock.

“No! Don’t come here!” Yun Xing’s face turned pale. He fell to the ground and quickly crawled away from Eunuch Gao.

Thud!

Eunuch Gao couldn’t withstand the searing pain any longer and collapsed to the ground, unmoving.

Yun Tian ignored Yun Xing. He walked towards Qing Xuan and lifted her lifeless body. He didn’t forget to pull Yun Yi’s coffin over before heading towards the throne.

Yun Lintian placed the crown on his head and slowly sat down on the throne with Qing Xuan in his arms and Yao Xi by his side. Yun Yi’s coffin was placed on the ground in front of him.

He calmly looked at Yun Xing without saying anything. The intense flames behind him didn’t faze him at all.

Yun Xing raised his head to look at his younger brother seated on the throne. With a glance, he felt like a servant, while Yun Tian appeared to be the true emperor.

“Yun Xing. Do you know your guilt?” Yun Tian asked calmly.

“I…” Yun Xing choked. As much as he wanted to be angry, he didn’t know what to say in this situation.

“As an emperor, you have completely failed to live up to the expectations of all the citizens of the Yun Dynasty. Not only did you collude with the enemy, but you also sold out your own country. Your crime is unforgivable.” Yun Tian said calmly, but his voice was icy.

Yun Xing pleaded hurriedly. “I can make you the emperor, but you must help me escape first!”

Yao Xi looked at Yun Xing and shook her head in disappointment. “We have lost to such a weak opponent. It’s really uncomfortable.”

Yun Xing’s face turned red with embarrassment upon hearing this. He mustered his strength and tried again. “I was wrong. I will accept any punishment, but please, take me away from this place first. You don’t want to die here too, do you?”

Yun Tian smiled and said. “I had no intention of leaving from the start.”

Yun Xing was stunned and shouted angrily. “Have you gone insane!? Don’t you want to become the emperor!?”

“I am now the emperor.” Yun Tian responded. “However, my crime of letting the country down is unforgivable, and I will pay for it with my own life.”

“Lunatic! You are a lunatic!” Yun Xing shouted in horror. He struggled to get up and searched for an exit route. Unfortunately, every entrance was now engulfed in intense flames.

“F*ck! I don’t want to die here!” Yun Xing cursed repeatedly. He was in a complete panic this time.

After realizing he could not survive, his eyes turned red as he picked up a sword and rushed towards Yun Tian.

However, it seemed heaven wanted to punish him, Yun Xing suddenly slipped and fell to the ground just before he could reach the throne. What was even more tragic was that he accidentally fell on the sword.

Puff!

The sword pierced through his abdomen and came out through his back. Blood immediately gushed out.

“Ahhhhh!” Yun Xing screamed in agony. “Help me! Somebody, help me! Hurry up!”

Yun Tian and Yao Xi stared at Yun Xing calmly without saying anything. It was as if they were looking at a pitiful worm.

Yun Xing writhed on the ground. His face contorted in pain, rendering him unable to think of anything.

A few moments later, Yun Xing gradually grew weaker until he succumbed to the excessive loss of blood. His eyes were still wide open as if he couldn’t believe that he would die just like that.

The flames quickly engulfed the hall, consuming everything in its path.

“Are you scared?” Yun Tian held Yao Xi close to him and whispered. 𝒍𝒊𝒃𝓻𝒆𝓪𝙙.𝒄𝙤𝒎

“With my husband here, I’m not scared of anything.” Yao Xi looked at her lover with boundless tenderness. “Do you think we will meet again?”

“Absolutely.” Yun Tian replied firmly. “Let me take good care of you in our next life.”

“See you on the other side, my beloved husband.” Yao Xi said softly and kissed Yun Tian on the lips.

The surrounding flames grew intense and soon engulfed everything within the hall.

Yun Lintian looked silently at the scene, his vision filled with the raging flames. There were many questions in his mind, but he could understand Yun Tian’s decision.

“What a deep love.” He let out a sigh and closed his eyes…
