Chapter 474: Regent in Charge of Government, Monsters Rampant! [4k Please Subscribe! ]

As the monsterized Xu Tianran was taken away and detained.

Only Xu Han and Kong Deming were left in the court.

"I didn't expect Xu Tianran to have a problem."

After a long silence, Kong Deming sighed and said, "Xu Han, thanks to your reminder this time. If I hadn't been prepared, there would have been a river of blood in this hall today..."

"I don't know how many people died at the hands of Xu Tianran."

"I will report today's events to your majesty truthfully."

"Mr. Kong, you are too kind."

Xu Han waved his hand and said, "As a descendant of the Sun and Moon royal family, these are what I should do."

"Thanks to your reminder..."

After speaking, Kong Deming's eyes flashed with a trace of relief.

To be honest, when Xu Han came to explain this matter last night, he still doubted the authenticity of this information. After all, the whole news that a country's crown prince had a problem was too shocking.

And Xu Han has no decisive evidence to prove that there was a problem with Xu Tianran. All the reasons are just speculations. This reason is really hard to convince people.

If Xu Han had not been willing to guarantee it with his own throne, and if he had not considered his status as a royal child, he would have decided to arrange personnel in the palace in advance to prepare.

And now, when everything really happened.

Kong Deming was grateful, but also felt a little scared.

Fortunately, he finally chose to believe Xu Han and did not treat this matter as nonsense. He arranged personnel in advance. This prevented Xu Tianran from causing a disaster...

Otherwise, if Xu Tianran really killed people in the Sun and Moon Court, it would definitely cause incalculable losses to the reputation and status of the Sun and Moon Empire.

Suddenly, Kong Deming spoke.

"King Heng, what happened today..."

"Don't worry, Mr. Kong, I will keep my mouth shut about what happened today."

Xu Han naturally understood what Kong Deming meant and promised immediately.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Hearing this, Mr. Kong nodded slightly.

As he spoke, he raised his eyes and looked at the throne in the center of the hall.

He couldn't help but sigh faintly.

Worried about the future of the Sun Moon Empire...

The emperor is currently seriously ill and is bedridden and unable to attend court. Xu Tianran, who was originally the crown prince, can still take over, and there will be no problems in the country.

After all, Xu Tianran is qualified to be the crown prince in terms of both skills and ability.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to break through the siege of the princes and firmly occupy the position of the crown prince despite his disability, and get the support of many ministers.

Therefore, Kong Deming did not have to worry about the succession of the throne of the Sun Moon Empire.

The result was unexpected...

Xu Tianran suddenly turned into a monster?

The original crown prince candidate was directly ruined...

Although Xu Tianran is not dead yet, there is not much to be found out about him. Even if he is still conscious, he may be eager for someone to kill him quickly.

Because from the moment he turned into a monster, he has lost his status as the crown prince, and even as a child of the Sun Moon royal family.

Not to mention that Xu Tianran can no longer become a human being, even if he can recover to normal, there is no possibility of him getting involved in the throne. Because the royal family will not allow a person who may turn into a monster at any time to be the emperor of Sun and Moon.

No matter how excellent he is, there is no possibility.

"..."

Facing the ill-fated empire, Kong Deming sighed.

Xu Tianran has become a monster, and the position of the crown prince has been vacated. And the other princes are eyeing the position of the crown prince, and a dispute is inevitable.

And now that His Majesty the Emperor is seriously ill, any conflict and dispute in the court without checks and balances at this time may lead the Sun and Moon Empire to an uncontrollable direction.

At this time, there is an urgent need for a candidate who can stand up and quell the dispute and spend this period of time safely. But in the current situation of the Sun and Moon Empire, who is qualified to control the court?

Thinking of this, Kong Deming's mind surged with all kinds of thoughts.

"..."

Just then, he suddenly thought of something.

His eyes turned and fell on Xu Han, and he said in his heart.

"If he is the regent..."

Thinking of this, Kong Deming's eyes flickered slightly.

First of all, Xu Han is the direct bloodline of the royal family of the Sun and Moon Empire.

Secondly, Xu Han has enough prestige in the court and the army, and he is loyal to the emperor and does not belong to any prince's camp.

There is no problem with his identity or ability. If he were to sit in the court, the Sun Moon Empire would surely be able to safely survive this turbulent period of the crown prince's change.

However...

The only problem now is:

Will Xu take over this difficult potato?

After all, although it seems glorious to be the regent, all the princes are eyeing this position, and it is inevitable to offend people. If there is a slight mistake, it may bring disaster to oneself.

At that time, if he says no, he will be punished later...

Therefore, he may not agree to this matter.

After all, he has always remained neutral and not caused trouble.

Just thinking about the current situation facing the empire...

Kong Deming took a deep breath and said, "Your Highness, the emperor is in poor health and the position of crown prince is vacant. There is no leader in the court and the country, and someone is urgently needed to take charge of the situation."

"So..."

After a pause, Kong Deming said, "Can the prince govern the country?"

"This..."

"I understand what Mr. Kong said. But..."

Hearing this, Xu Han hesitated a little.

Although he and Su Luoheng's goal this time was to take the position of regent, so that they could help Xu Jinyu compete for the throne. But in order to fit the character, they still had to pretend.

"I know that my request is a bit difficult."

Kong Deming continued to persuade: "But in the current situation, only if you, Prince Heng, come out to preside over the overall situation and sit in the center can the empire be stable and not fall into chaos."

"As long as you can take the position of regent, I promise that no matter who inherits the next emperor, I will ensure that Prince Heng's mansion is safe."

"Mr. Kong, you..."

Xu Han smiled bitterly, and finally said helplessly: "Forget it, since you, Mr. Kong, have said this, I will accept it."

"But this is my first time to be regent, and I have no experience. Please give me more advice."

"Of course!"

The two looked at each other.

At that moment, the matter of regent was reached.

Kong Deming breathed a sigh of relief, because if Xu Han was willing to come forward to regent, the pressure he faced would be much less.

Xu Han was also satisfied.

Getting the power of regent is an important part of helping Xu Jinyu fight for the throne.

Because once Xu Tianran fell, the forces that once belonged to the prince's faction were leaderless and would definitely choose supporters again. There will be a major reshuffle in the court.

However, with the label of Xu Tianran's faction, it is difficult for them to completely integrate into other parties. Even if they join, they can only become marginal figures. And their Hengwang lineage can secretly gather in the name of regent.

In this way, inheriting Xu Tianran's legacy, coupled with the original power of Hengwang Mansion and the help of Su Luoheng. Xu Jinyu's current strength is not weaker than any prince, and even stronger.

This is their plan with Su Luoheng.

Three days ago, when Su Luoheng came to Hengwang Mansion to inform them of this, they decided on a strategy to strive for regent after Xu Tianran fell. So Xu Han came to negotiate with Kong Deming to win the opportunity to regent.

And Kong Lao really recommended him to be regent.

As for why Xu Tianran suddenly changed?

After Su Luoheng, Xu Han, and Xu Jinyu discussed this issue, they unanimously decided to throw it to the evil soul master and the Holy Spirit Sect. Anyway, the Holy Spirit Sect has done so many bad things that this one thing is not a big deal.

Evil soul masters are not good people, and they have always been a threat hiding in the territory of the Sun and Moon Empire. It is just right to use the Xu Tianran incident to blow them out.

And when Master Kong learned about this, he was really furious.

He slammed the table at that time and was determined to settle accounts with the Holy Spirit Sect.

The anger of the first soul master in Douluo Continent... Tsk tsk, the Holy Spirit Sect is afraid of being in trouble this time~~

...

...

Time flies.

In a blink of an eye, seven days have passed.

Since the court meeting that day, Xu Tianran, the former crown prince of the Sun and Moon Empire, has evaporated and has never appeared in the public eye again.

According to rumors, he seems to have a problem with his body...

Without Xu Tianran as regent, and the emperor's health has not improved. Under such circumstances, King Heng Xu Han took over the regent under the strong recommendation of Kong Deming and a group of ministers.

Xu Jinyu also officially began to be active in the court.

Although Xu Tianran suddenly left the court, because it was not long, the officials of the prince's lineage were not in chaos. They just thought that there was really something wrong with his body. The court was relatively stable.

However, there were still people who secretly sought information.

But they were destined to return empty-handed.

Because Kong Deming had completely blocked it.

The incident of Xu Tianran turning into a monster has been listed as a top-secret file. Except for the Sun and Moon Emperor, no one else has the right to know. And the soul masters who participated in the arrest before also kept it strictly confidential.

And Xu Tianran's monsterization is not an exception.

Nowadays, many monsters similar to Xu Tianran have appeared in the Sun and Moon Empire, and even Mingdu has begun to appear.

So in order to deal with these monster problems, Xu Han, after discussing with Kong Deming, selected a group of senior soul masters from the Soul Master Corps, Mingde Hall, and Worship Hall to deal with these monsters.

Xu Han thought that he had paid enough attention to these monsters, and thought that forming such an elite soul master team would be enough to deal with them. And Kong Deming had the same idea.

It's just...

Unexpectedly, they all miscalculated.

The abilities of these monsters are too weird. The soul guide team formed by Xu Han failed in the first battle, and the team members suffered considerable losses.

Originally, they thought that such a soul guide team would be enough to eliminate the monsters in the Sun and Moon Empire, but the facts gave them a heavy blow. Now even the monsters near Mingdu have not been eliminated.

...

...

Mingdu, on the street.

Su Luoheng frowned and murmured.

"The frequency of alienation has accelerated..."

"Monsters, more and more..."

Since Xu Tianran's mutation, news of monsters has begun to appear in various parts of the Sun and Moon Empire. Su Luoheng is now also worried about the monsters.

In the past few days, he also learned from Xu Jinyu about the problems of the soul guide team in dealing with monsters. But he has not encountered any monsters, so he can't provide effective advice.

As for the monster that Xu Tianran turned into?

Su Luoheng wanted to try this guy, but he finally gave up the idea because of his identity. After all, no matter what, Xu Tianran is the former Sun and Moon Prince.

Even though it has turned into a monster, it cannot be disposed of at will.

"Ah..."

Thinking of this, Su Luoheng sighed.

I wonder what's going on with Xu Jinyu, has he found the weaknesses of these monsters?

It's a pity that Xu Tianran is such a good material... If he can be used for testing, maybe some useful information can be obtained.

Just thinking about it, Su Luoheng came to the alley.

"Strange-"

"Ah!!! Ah-"

"..."

Suddenly, Su Luoheng paused.

At the same time, his eyes slightly focused, looking at the dark alley on the right.

"There's a problem!"

After a moment, Su Luoheng frowned slightly.

Although the bloody smell was not obvious in the air, Su Luoheng was keenly aware of it, and he seemed to hear the screams and cries of women just now.

"Could it be..."

Suddenly, Su Luoheng thought of something.

So, without hesitation, he quickly entered the alley.

"Sizzle-"

"Crack-"

In the dark and narrow alley, there were constant sounds.

It was like something was eating.

And as the distance got deeper, the creepy sound became clearer.

"..."

For a moment, Su Luoheng felt something was wrong.

He couldn't help but quicken his pace and walked inside.

...

...

Soon, deep in the alley.

Su Luoheng saw a scene that made his blood boil.

In this narrow and dark alley, three black monsters with hideous faces, bulging eyeballs, and barbed fangs were crawling on the ground.

For a moment, blood was splattered after being torn apart.

When Su Luoheng saw it, they were still tearing the flesh of the two with their long fangs!

They were biting and chewing... eating with relish.

The cry for help heard earlier came from their mouths.

But now, they have become two cold corpses.

And their corpses, swallowed by the three monsters, have become unrecognizable and exposed their bones.

"Roar, roar, roar~~~~"

When they saw Su Luoheng, they immediately opened their bloody mouths and roared at him, their scarlet eyes full of bloodshot, flashing with bloodthirsty and greedy light!

For these monsters transformed by the poison of faith, they like to devour all kinds of living things the most.

And humans are their favorite food. Especially those humans with soul power cultivation, they are extremely tempting!

So, when the three monsters found Su Luoheng, they directly abandoned the half-eaten corpse, opened their bloody mouths full of fangs, and pounced on Su Luoheng at the same time!

"Looking for death!"

For a while, Su Luoheng's anger surged in his heart.

The anger in his heart was just vented on them!
