Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World-Chapter 332 The King.... Died?

The woman, half naked as she was, fell on the ground. The blood that came from her head bursting splattered all over the walls.

But because she was near the entrance, the blood did not reach anywhere near the king. It did go toward the guests who came here though.

Liu Feng's reaction speed was fast enough for him to see what Tian Hun did. Although he did not intervene in his attack, he waved his hand to create a small Qi barrier that blocked the blood from splattering all over their robes.

He tolerated the kill, but he wouldn't tolerate defiling his robes and dignity by allowing the splatter to fall on him.

All eyes were on the king now. He was choking, and his face started darkening. All his veins were bulging, and every single one of them was turning blue, due to the lack of oxygen pumping. 𝘧r𝗲𝑒𝔀𝘦𝙗𝓃oν𝑒l.𝐜𝗼m

This was like a mortal man asphyxiating to death, but even that didn't make sense. A mortal man would have died a long time ago if he were in Tian Long's situation. Instead, Tian Long had delayed his death by too much.

His body would have given up a long time ago, but the resources that the Imperial Palace commanded meant that the king could delay his death by a few months if he wanted to.

And that was why everyone knew when the succession wars would even take place. Because even though the next king had not been decided, the death of the king was.

But all of that was about to change now. Tian Hun approached the bed as Tian Gan tried everything that he could to stabilize the king's condition.

With all that they did though, foam started to froth on the king's mouth. His eyes wide open, and his mouth opened further. There was only pain in those eyes.

The king was dead.

He had died experiencing immense pain and anger. This was no peaceful death that everyone wished they would have. The king did not rest in peace.

Tian Gan gently laid the king on the bed.

"Looks like he is finally gone." he sighed and looked at Tian Hun.

"We are no longer bound to this crown. We must wait for the next. So then, the succession wars are going to happen a month earlier than planned, I see." he said to Tian Hun.

"It is a pity. Oh well." Tian Hun nodded as he glanced at the guests who arrived. All the arrogance in his face vanished. It was like this was a different person entirely.

"The king is dead. There is no reason for you to be here. The news will soon reach the rest of the world, and now, there will only be turmoil. Looks like this is a fight between you and the Crown Prince for the throne then." Tian Hun said.

"The crown prince. Who is it that supports the crown prince? I heard that it was the sect master of the Tiandu sect, considered the strongest power after the Imperial Palace?" Liu Feng asked.

"That is right, Young Noble. We must now retreat to the family quarters. The succession wars are taking place. That means that every single major power will now come to the capital city to try and take a bite of the pie that is now the throne. We must regroup." Cai Guo nodded.

"Ah! The war for the throne. It still goes on to this day." Feng Wang sighed, looking at the dead king and looking back at old memories.

"The war only gives me a bad feeling. I will not be in the capital city for this war that you are planning to wage just so that you can become the king of a kingdom that is run by greed. You are on your own boy." Feng Wang said as he turned around, ready to leave the king's bedroom, and the palace itself.

"Indeed. I also think the same. Being a king is such a pain. But unfortunately, I have no choice. I never wanted to bring you into this though, Senior. You have done more than enough to help me out. With the Hong family out of the way, it should be much easier for me to head to the throne." Liu Feng said.

"You guys are still here? Do you want me to force you away? Remember. This is still the Imperial Palace. The King is dead now, so his verdicts are meaningless to us. We will wait for the next king. But leaving you to go is a mercy already. Get out." Tian Gan said.

"Indeed, Imperial Advisor. We will go now." Cai Guo nodded.

Swish!

Immediately, all five people here flickered and their afterimages faded into the background. They were gone now.

"Seems like young Long has finally kicked the bucket. He used to be such a good boy, until that damned Long Xian came here and ruined him completely." Tian Hun sighed as he looked at the corpse.

Tian Long looked almost ten times older than Tian Hun, and yet, it was the opposite.

Although not ten times, Tian Hun was much older than Tian Long, whose life was cut short by this curse of the king.

"We must give him the right funeral that a king deserves." Tian Gan said.

"Send word to all of the princes. Tell them that the king has breathed his last." Tian Hun's voice caused the knees of every single guard to turn to jelly.

The king was dead? Who would have thought that this would suddenly happen?

The Hong family being exterminated by the Cai family was already a big surprise. But now, the king was dead?

"With this, every single vulture in the entire Han Dynasty region will start eyeing the throne. Call Tian Jiang here. We need to prepare for the worst." Tian Gan looked at Tian Hun.
