Chapter 310: Chapter 310: Song Jing’s Counterattack

"What?"

Lin Fan was shocked!

The Pattern Engraving Bomb, when combined with specialized Pattern Engraving Bomb, naturally possesses extraordinary power.

For instance, the Pattern Engraving Bomb in Lin Fan’s possession, without the specialized cannonballs, could at most annihilate a Saint Ascension-level expert of the lowest rank, but... if it were combined with specialized Pattern Engraving Bomb, it might even be able to annihilate a Peak Saint Ascension-level expert.

However...

The Pattern Engraving Cannonballs are extremely difficult to refine!

It can be said without exaggeration that even if Lin Fan were more formidable, he wouldn’t be able to refine Pattern Engraving Cannonballs.

Furthermore, even if Lin Fan really could refine the Pattern Engraving Cannonballs, there would be nothing he could do because the materials needed to refine Pattern Engraving Cannonballs are only available within the Holy Soul Domain; even if one were to overturn the entire Nine-state Continent, it would still be impossible to find the materials needed to refine Pattern Engraving Cannonballs.

For that reason, when Lin Fan heard that Bai Paoyi actually had Pattern Engraving Cannonballs, he was immensely surprised!

Lin Fan asked, "You really have Pattern Engraving Cannonballs?"

Bai Paoyi nodded and said, "Absolutely true!"

Lin Fan then asked, "Where did you get them from?"

"Heh..."

Bai Paoyi laughed and said, "They’ve been passed down in my family. Honestly, if it were not a crisis situation, I wouldn’t want to use the Pattern Engraving Bomb. But now, the situation has become extremely critical, so... I have no other choice but to opt for this in order for the Bai family to soar once again!"

Lin Fan nodded, to be honest, in his heart, he quite admired Bai Paoyi. Bai Paoyi had the spirit of ’sacrifice,’ as the saying goes, no gain without sacrifice. If all goes well, perhaps one day Bai Paoyi will succeed.

Then Lin Fan asked, "How many Pattern Engraving Cannonballs do you have?"

Bai Paoyi said, "Three!"

Having said that, after a brief pause, Bai Paoyi continued seriously, "Although there are only three, I think if we use them well, it should be enough for us to succeed!"

The night was deep!

A full moon hung high in the sky!

The entire Imperial City appeared very tranquil, as if it had already fallen asleep.

However...

This night, this Imperial City, was destined not to be peaceful.

In Bai Paoyi’s study, there were three people at this time, including Bai Paoyi, the others were Lin Fan and Song Jing.

The three just quietly stood there, no one spoke, they seemed to be waiting for something.

At a certain moment, a series of bright lights suddenly appeared in front of Bai Paoyi.

Someone was sending a message using a Sound Transmission Talisman.

The three immediately looked towards the Sound Transmission Talisman, and Bai Paoyi also began to decode the content within the talisman.

"How is it?"

Song Jing asked Bai Paoyi anxiously, his body even trembling a bit.

"Everything is ready!" Bai Paoyi said in a deep voice: "Take action!"

"Good!"

Lin Fan and Song Jing both nodded.

Then, the three left Song Jing’s study and swiftly arrived at a certain place.

There, the Pattern Engraving Bomb had been set up.

The Pattern Engraving Cannonballs had also been loaded into the Pattern Engraving Bomb, just waiting to be fired.

The task of firing was given to Lin Fan, because Lin Fan possessed the Dragon Soul, which would allow for more precise firing.

The first shot of the Pattern Engraving Bomb was aimed at the mansion of the Eldest Prince.

Among the many princes, the Eldest Prince had the greatest chance of succession, his advantage was the strongest, it was no exaggeration to say that the Eldest Prince had a fifty percent chance of inheriting the Imperial Throne.

Next was the Second Prince, with a twenty percent chance.

The Fourth Prince had a fifteen percent chance.

As for the other princes, together they had only a fifteen percent chance.

Now, the primary task for Lin Fan and the others was to eliminate these three princes.

It can be boldly stated that if these three princes are eliminated, unless something unexpected occurs, Song Jing would be the next Emperor.

Song Jing and Bai Paoyi both remained silent.

They quietly watched Lin Fan, while expressions of tension appeared on their faces because they were well aware of what a failure could mean...

Boom...

Finally, Lin Fan started firing!

The crazily fired Pattern Engraving Cannonballs shot out from the Pattern Engraving Bomb, like a Fire Dragon descending, heading straight for the mansion of the Eldest Prince.

Everything happened too suddenly.

Even a Peak Saint Ascension-level expert under this shot could only fall.

Because, this shot, was simply too powerful...

Boom...

The first shot finally exploded at the mansion of the Eldest Prince, and then, the entire mansion of the Eldest Prince was completely destroyed.

The whole Imperial City trembled, as if there had been an earthquake.

At this moment, the mansion of the Eldest Prince was already like the end of the world.

The people inside the Prince Mansion, regardless of their cultivation level, were completely obliterated under this shot.

This shot also completely stirred the entire Imperial City.

"What... What exactly is going on?"

"What has happened to the Eldest Prince’s mansion?"

For a moment, many people in the Imperial City were confused; they didn’t know what had happened.

But soon, another light flared up...

The Pattern Engraving Bomb fired again, this time targeting the Second Prince.

Boom...

Without the slightest suspense, the mansion of the Second Prince was also completely destroyed.

Soon, the mansion of the Fourth Prince was destroyed as well...

In this way, the three most powerful Princes with claim to the throne were dead in an instant.

At that moment, everyone finally understood, it was a struggle for the Imperial Throne.

Everyone’s hearts were also shocked, who was the person who had launched these three bombs?

How could they have taken out the three strongest Princes in such a short time?

While everyone was still in shock, the Baby Corps, originally guarding the Imperial City, suddenly sprang into action.

The Baby Corps moved swiftly, quickly controlling the entire Imperial City.

Inside the Imperial City, everyone was filled with fear and alarm.

Everyone knew that the Dasong Dynasty was about to change, but up until now, the person behind this had not revealed themselves; most people were very curious about who would succeed to the throne next.

Normally, the Baby Corps would have had difficulty controlling the whole Imperial City in such a short time, as there were many experts within the city. If these experts resisted, the Baby Corps could not control the situation in the city.

But everyone was thinking about the shocking three bombs earlier.

They were not afraid of the Baby Corps, but they were terrified of the powerful Pattern Engraving Bomb!

They worried that if they resisted, perhaps the powerful Pattern Engraving Bomb would target them next, and if that were the case, they would be doomed.

It was under the deterrence of the Pattern Engraving Bomb that the Baby Corps so easily controlled the situation within the city.

Dawn gradually broke.

The Imperial City also gradually quieted down.

After the Baby Corps took control of the Imperial City, they naturally took complete control of the many Dragon Eyes throughout the city. Strictly speaking, there were no Arrays in the Imperial City, but once these Dragon Eyes controlled by the Baby Corps were activated, they formed a super powerful Array.

Inside Bai Paoyi’s study.

"Sigh!"

Song Jing let out a long sigh, muttering to himself: "Finally, it’s done!"

Then, Song Jing’s body simply collapsed to the floor.

During that time, Song Jing had been extremely nervous; he knew this operation was highly dangerous with a very slim chance of success. And if it failed, dying would have been a very difficult option for him, probably worse than death.

But fortunately, fate was kind, and everything went very smoothly.

Now, the entire Imperial City was under his control; everything was within his grasp.

Later, Song Jing slowly stood up and said to Bai Paoyi: "General Bai, I owe you my thanks!"

Song Jing’s gratitude towards Bai Paoyi was sincere because he knew that all of his success was a gift from Bai Paoyi, and of course Lin Fan as well, but in his heart, he was most grateful to Bai Paoyi.

"Ha..."

Bai Paoyi waved his hand and said, "Your Highness, I hope you will be a good Emperor in the future!"

Song Jing earnestly replied, "Rest assured, I will!"

Then, Song Jing turned to Lin Fan and said, "Thank you too!"

Lin Fan just smiled and said nothing.

At that moment, someone used a Sound Transmission Talisman to send a message to Song Jing.

Song Jing said, "Alright, everything inside the Imperial Palace is settled. Now, let’s enter the Imperial Palace. Your Highness, I hope you can ascend to the throne as soon as possible. Once you have ascended, the soldiers from the Outer Realm Battlefield will retreat on their own!"

Song Jing continued, "I will ascend to the throne as soon as possible."

It’s not simple to inherit the throne of the Dasong Dynasty; one must be acknowledged by the True Dragon that guards beneath the Imperial City.

Also, only those of the Royal Family bloodline could potentially be acknowledged by the True Dragon. Therefore, rebellion is rare in the Dasong Dynasty, because even if you succeed in rebellion, you cannot become the Emperor of Dasong, as you do not have the Royal Family bloodline and cannot gain the acknowledgement of the True Dragon.

Of course, this does not exclude special circumstances where someone might use special methods to refine the True Dragon, but such cases are rare.

Later, Lin Fan and the others quickly headed towards the Imperial Palace, and soon they reached the Jinluan Palace.

At that time, the civil and military officials had already been gathered there, waiting for Song Jing’s arrival.

"His Highness arrives!"

At that moment, someone outside announced.

When the civil and military officials heard this voice, they all became very curious. They wondered which His Highness had so decisively eliminated the three most powerful princes.

Then, Lin Fan, Song Jing, and Bai Paoyi walked in.

Of course, Song Jing was at the forefront.

"Is it him?"

When the civil and military officials saw Song Jing, they couldn’t help but be stunned.

They had never dreamed that the person who had caused such a huge upheaval in the Imperial City was none other than Prince Song Jing himself.

Truth be told, up until now, many of the officials still couldn’t believe what they were seeing.

After all, among the many princes, Song Jing was the least favored, and he had no forces of his own. Frankly, no one had taken him seriously before.

But unexpectedly...

The final victor who turned the tables was actually Song Jing?

It was truly surprising!
