The First Store System

Chapter 1545: Ancient Glorious City(16)

"Brother, who will save you now?" The second prince coldly commented, looking at his fourth brother lying in the pool of blood.

The fourth prince was in no condition to respond and looked at his brother with a pained face. He was taking his last breath, and not long after, his eyes dimmed down.

Hahaha!

The second prince suddenly erupted in wild laughter. With the death of the fourth prince, he no longer had any competitors left. His way to the throne was clear.

He then remembered Halie, who was locked in the prison. He couldn't help but hurry to prison since he had lustful feelings for her since he had seen her. It was just that he was too weak to act on those feelings.

The second prince had only reached halfway distance to the prison when suddenly, a loud explosion shocked the area.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In the next moment, several explosions happened all at once, shaking the royal palace.

The second prince coldly looked around, and soon after, Halie walked out of the dust cloud, followed by other prisoners and that intruder.

His face turned solemn since Halie and the prisoners released killing intent toward him. He didn't fear the prisoners or Halie since he had a Higher God level guard with him.

But when he looked to his left, his eyes shrank, and his face turned pale. The guard had a large hole in his chest, with his heart nowhere to be seen.

Crash!

The guard then crashed to the ground. The second prince immediately looked at Halie and was shocked by the staff in her hand.

Since the Emperor was a Supreme God, Halie's physical strength wouldn't even cause a scratch on the corpse.

The Imperial Staff couldn't leave the Emperor's residence before the selection of the next Emperor, and there Aakesh came to Halie's help.

Aakesh had the skill [Energy Overseer] that helped him locate different energies and distinguish between them. Since he had seen the aura of the Emperor through the talisman, it wasn't that difficult for him to find the staff.

As expected, after a few moments, Aakesh locked the location of the staff. It was locked inside a formation, but that formation could do nothing to stop him.

Aakesh easily found the formation eye, destroyed it, and revealed the hidden Imperial Staff.

With an excited expression, Halie walked to the Imperial Staff and picked it up. A heavy pressure suddenly emerged from the item, bending her down.

Halie persisted through the pressure, and soon, it had disappeared, accepting Halie as its next owner. A broad smile plastered across her face following that. With the staff, she had no enemy in the Empire.

The entire Empire was a formation, and the Imperial Staff controlled it, granting her enough strength to do whatever she wanted.

At the same time, the group outside sensed the disruption when Halie was accepted by the staff. They hurriedly rushed inside only to find Halie kneeling before the Emperor's corpse while the Imperial Staff was next to her.

Their faces turned pale, knowing what had transpired before them. Aakesh was also there in the room, but he had an indifferent expression. It was as if the man outside the store and the man inside the store were two different people.

With Halie getting the Imperial Staff, Aakesh no longer needed to act. He had done his part well, and now only the last phase was left before he completed the challenge and could leave that world.

***

Using the help of the staff, Halie killed the Higher God level guard of the second prince. She didn't need to since only showing the staff was more than enough for the guard to walk away, but since there couldn't be any better moment to show her prestige, she used that for her benefit.

"Die!"

Halie didn't waste any words and immediately activated the attacking ability of the staff, targeting the second prince.
