The Third Prince, now the most powerful heir to the throne in the secular world.
Half of the kings throughout the land supported him.
The attitude of the Daoist sects across the realm was unclear.
However, the trump card in the Third Prince's hand was not his reliance on these sects, but a more formidable lineage.
He looked at his incompetent son, expressing some disappointment, "Haotian, when your father chose this name for you, it was to see you stand tall among the heavens. Yet, your vision is only as wide as the palm of your hand. How could Ji Wanyu have any substantial impact on the bigger picture? Instead of scheming for the empire, you incessantly entangle yourself with a Princess?"
Ji Haotian had not expected that his father would not support him and would say such things.
He had killed Ji Wanyu also considering his father's interests!
