Xiao Shi’s pupils suddenly constricted. While he was shocked, he felt enlightened. He felt that this was unexpected, but it was also reasonable. In that era, the only one who had the ability and courage to kill this prince was definitely the Martial Emperor.

Other than that, there was no other person who could do it.

Xiao Shi just could not understand why the Martial Emperor did this. Even a monster would not hurt its own children. Even if this prince did something out of line, the Martial Emperor didn’t have to kill him.

Moreover, even if this prince really committed an unforgivable crime, the Martial Emperor could also choose to kill him in front of the entire world. It was not such a sneaky and obscure kill. With the Martial Emperor’s strength and status on the Tianwu Continent at that time, he would definitely kill whoever he wanted. No one dared to say anything.

Yet the Martial Emperor killed him in a subtle way. He also pretended to be furious. This was very strange.

Xiao Shi thought about it seriously. He felt that there might be two reasons.

Firstly, he had to consider the fate of the Great Wu Empire. If the Martial Emperor publicly killed his son, it would definitely affect his reputation to a certain extent. It would make people think that he was a tyrant and affect the fate of the Great Wu Empire.

The Martial Emperor valued the fate of the Great Wu Empire. He would definitely avoid anything that would affect it. Therefore, he could only kill him in secret.

Secondly, this prince involved the Martial Emperor’s response to the calamity. Therefore, the Martial Emperor had to kill him!

There were many possibilities.

Yan Huagu continued, “When I found out that the person who killed my brother was actually the Martial Emperor, I felt that it was extremely ridiculous and completely nonsense. This Heavenly Mystery Palace is clearly using the pretense of prying into the secrets of the heavens to swindle others. In a fit of anger, I wanted to destroy this Heavenly Mystery Palace, but the Palace Master told me the reason why the Martial Emperor wanted to kill my brother.”

Yan Huagu’s voice suddenly became low. “Ever since the Martial Emperor broke through to the ninth realm, he already understood that it was impossible for him to survive the calamity. No matter what method he used, he will definitely die under the calamity.

“In this situation of certain death, unless he seals himself like the ninth realm of the Martial Dao in other eras, he will definitely die. The Martial Emperor thought of an unprecedented way to deal with this.

“Since he can’t survive the catastrophe in this life, he might as well complete it in his next life. lie wants to create a clone for himself in his next life. Therefore, my brother became his first choice!”

Yan Huagu’s words immediately set off a huge wave in Xiao Shi’s mind. “Senior, you mean… the Martial Emperor wants to possess the Eldest Prince?”

Yan Huagu shook his head. “To be precise, this is a higher-end ability than possession. If it’s a normal possession, then even if one successfully completes the possession, they will still face a calamity, because there are no fundamental changes.

“Rather than saying that it’s a possession, it’s more appropriate to call it rebirth. Although it’s still impossible to avoid the calamity, at least there won’t be a calamity until he reaches the ninth realm. This way, the Martial Emperor will have more time to think of a way to deal with the calamity.”

Xiao Shi was enlightened. If it was an ordinary possession, even if the Martial Emperor possessed the Eldest Prince and his cultivation fell from the ninth realm to the Daolord Realm, he would still face a calamity at the same time and would not change.

But rebirth was different. After his rebirth, it was as if he had been reborn. Unless his reborn body cultivated to the ninth realm of the Martial Dao again, there would not be a calamity. There was even a benefit. It was that when the Martial Emperor’s body in this life experienced a calamity, he would have the experience to deal with it in his next life.

Under normal circumstances,

These ninth-stage martial artists would only have one chance to experience a calamity.

He would either succeed or die.

However, the Martial Emperor could experience a calamity one more time than ordinary people with this method of rebirth.

This experience was very important! As long as he knew the problem he had failed in his previous life, he could deal with this problem. This would greatly increase his chances of surviving the calamity in his next life.

“In that case, why didn’t the Martial Emperor choose someone with a lower cultivation level but the Eldest Prince?” Xiao Shi was puzzled by this. Logically speaking, if he chose a Martial Entry-Level martial artist to be reborn, wouldn’t he have more time?

Yan Huagu shook his head. “This kind of rebirth has a lot of restrictions. The Martial Emperor can’t choose whoever he wants. Only someone with the Martial Emperor bloodline can become his rebirth target.

“So, he chose my elder brother first. It’s just that this rebirth technique is too complicated. The Martial Emperor had just formed this rebirth technique, so it failed, causing my brother to die. This is also an important reason why we were unable to find out the reason for my brother’s death.

“After I learned the truth, I also understood why my brother’s death gave me a strong sense of danger.. The Martial Emperor failed at my brother, then his next target will definitely be me!”
