Chapter 109 - 79: The Changeable Wind and Clouds_2
Zhao Rong lay prostrate on the ground, his clothes soaked with cold sweat.
"Father Emperor, why do you say such things? I have always admired my brother greatly. Besides Father Emperor and my brother, there is no second person who could command my loyalty. How could I possibly do anything disrespectful to my Imperial Brother?"
Emperor Longping leaned forward. After staring at Zhao Rong for a while, he suddenly threw his teacup to the ground!
"Even at the critical moment, you dare to feign deceit. Do you truly believe that I am so old and blind?"
"Your son does not dare! Please, Father Emperor, calm your anger. Do not harm your dragon body because of this..." Zhao Rong’s body trembled, but he still kept his lips sealed.
"I have only five sons. Your fifth brother had a dragon visage but died unexpectedly at the age of three. And Yan’Er, who was always kind-hearted, had his soul damaged by witchcraft and Gu Technique a decade ago, turning him into an idiot."
"Now, my eldest son, the nation’s Crown Prince, has also met an untimely end!" Due to anger, Emperor Longping couldn’t help but cough violently. The eunuch beside him wanted to serve him but was stopped by his outstretched hand.
The old Emperor’s face turned pale, and his eyes were filled with cold fury. "Zhao Rong! Do you think that your actions can really escape my notice?"
"Father Emperor, you wrong me! Even if I were to be sliced to pieces and burned by Celestial Fire, I would never harbor any ill intentions towards my brother!" Zhao Rong’s body shook like a sieve, but he still managed to lift his head and stared straight at the old dragon before him.
"If Father Emperor does not believe me, I am willing to swear an oath. If I have ever done anything to harm the bond between brothers, may I die by a thousand arrows, and even in death, may I be doomed to become a beast, never to be reincarnated!"
