“Killing Jason and creating such a vicious scene, this was most likely done by Aili…” Chen Heng looked at the scene before him and could not help but wonder, “But, why?”

Why did Aili rush into the palace and specifically find Jason to torture and kill him in such a cruel way? Was it just to vent and take revenge? Well, it was not impossible with Aili’s personality.

His personality became more and more violent, especially after the bloodline experiment, deeply influenced by the bloodline instinct. Therefore, with his current state, it would not be surprising if he did such a thing.

However, Chen Heng still instinctively suspected the purpose behind it. There was no such thing as an accident in this world. Although Aili might have done such a brainless thing, Jameson would not.

Chen Heng could understand that the King’s Council would not let an important experiment like Aili wander around alone. There was a high chance that someone was watching him, most likely Jameson.

With Jameson’s ability, even if Aili could not control himself and wanted to take revenge on Jason, he would stop him and not let him alert the enemy unless this matter was necessary. Various thoughts flashed through Chen Heng’s mind.

On the side, King Violet was still furious. He was trying hard to deduce and reconstruct what had happened last night. Yet, surprisingly, Chen Heng did not feel any sadness in his heart. Instead, all he felt was anger. He saw this as a provocation to himself but did not feel too sad about Jason’s death.

Chen Heng sighed and silently dispelled the thoughts in his heart. It was better to let them fight each other. With Aili’s behavior, he would most likely attack the others later and even target King Violet sooner or later. Since that was the case, then let him do it.

Aili’s action did not cause any harm to Chen Heng. After all, as long as King Violet was still alive, he would not be able to ascend to the Violet Empire’s throne. However, the situation would be completely different if King Violet died.

After the fall of the king, out of the three children qualified to inherit the throne, Jason had already died. Meanwhile, Aili had already gone mad. So as long as Chen Heng showed the evidence of Aili’s actions toward Jason, Aili would naturally be unable to ascend to the Violet Empire’s throne. So the only one left was naturally Chen Heng.

In other words, this would still be of help to Chen Heng ascending to the throne in advance. Therefore, he remained silent and watched King Violet busily searching for clues everywhere.

Nonetheless, he also appeared very sad, with a sentimental look on his face.

“Alan.” Just as Chen Heng silently stood in a corner and pretended to shed a few tears, King Violet’s voice sounded.

Standing in the distance, he looked at Chen Heng, who was standing there with a face full of sorrow and could not help but show some relief on his face, “Don’t be too sad. I know your brothers have been very close to you since childhood, but if Jason knew how you look now, he would not be happy either.”

‘No, he would.’ Then, looking at the gratified face of King Violet, who was standing there trying to persuade him, Chen Heng wanted to ask him, ‘What made you think that Jasonand I are very close?’

Chen Heng’s predecessor and Jason did have a honeymoon period. Their relationship was close, almost to the point of wearing the same pants. However, that was completely forced by Aili.

In the past, Ali was too strong, and he kept suppressing his brother, forcing Chen Heng’s predecessor and Jason to work together to protect themselves, giving others the illusion that they had a very close relationship.

In fact, how was their relationship?

This was known from Jason’s previous actions— merely showing respect as a good brother should. He smiled on the surface, but in reality, he was prepared to stab Chen Heng in the back.

Chen Heng did not speak but showed sadness on his face, looking particularly uncomfortable and moved for their brotherhood.

“During this period, stay beside my palace, and don’t go out easily.” King Violet thought for a moment, then said, “Since the murderer has already done it once, he can do it again. Therefore, for safety, stay by my side for this period. Don’t go out.”

He still considered Chen Heng’s safety, as there was no other way. It was fine in the past since he had many children, giving him a great reputation even within the royal family, causing countless royal families who could not bear children to feel envious.

Yet now, the first Prince Aili had gone missing. He did not know if he would be able to return in the future. Moreover, Jason had been killed, leaving only Chen Heng. If something happened to Chen Heng again, then the future successor of the Violet Empire would become a huge problem and probably result in a commotion.

Whether it was from a practical or emotional point of view, King Violet had to do his best to ensure Chen Heng’s safety. Though, as a king, he had considered the possibility that Chen Heng would make a move on Jason himself. However, after thinking over all the circumstances, he finally shook his head and ruled out this possibility. Neither the strength nor time is right.

As Chen Heng had just returned to the imperial city, out of consideration for his experience, King Violet had spent all of his attention and energy on Chen Heng yesterday.

Not only did he send a lot of personnel to monitor the surroundings, but he had also personally taken care of the palace where he lived to prevent others from attacking Chen Heng in displeasure. Yet now, it had significantly cleared Chen Heng’s suspicion.

“Noted.” Chen Heng still looked sad, and his voice became even deeper. He did not say anything but only nodded silently, indicating that he would listen to King Violet’s arrangements, making King Violet feel satisfied.

Walking out of Jason’s palace and returning to her residence, Alice had already received the news and hurried over to welcome him.

“Your Highness!” It was fine when she was outside, but once he walked into the palace, Alice’s face beamed with joy, and she asked, “His Highness Jason?”

“There’s no hope.” Chen Heng shook his head and said, confirming the speculation outside.

The joy that appeared on Alice’s face immediately became even more intense, “So, Your Highness…” Unknowingly, she lowered her voice and wanted to say something but paused.

Chen Heng naturally understood what she meant, but looking at Alice before him, he silently shook his head and did not say anything, “Get ready to move.” Instead, he gave an order, then walked to the side, preparing to pack his things.

There were a large number of enslaved people around who came over to help with King Violet’s order. They moved all the things Chen Heng needed to the old palace beside King Violet’s palace.

Even though the palace was old, it was huge. In addition, the various arrays within it were still operating, making it look spectacular. This palace was obviously on a higher level and had better conditions in all aspects compared to the palace that Chen Heng had lived in before.

However, the most important thing was the history of this palace. It was King Violet’s residence before he ascended the throne. Although he had yet become a king at that time, he had already been appointed as the successor. So this palace was the place he lived in.

Now that Chen Heng had also moved in, the hint of King Violet’s move was very obvious considering the current situation. After fighting for so long for the position of the successor within the Violet Empire, was it finally coming to an end now?

The people around sighed. However, Chen Heng did not have such thoughts. From the start, his target was not the successor’s position. Of course, he wanted the king position, but whether or not he had inherited it was not important.

“Has the mark’s induction increased?” Moving into the palace, Chen Heng could feel the changes in his body. In the empty room, he opened his arms, revealing his clean palm.

A mark that looked like a Silver Moon appeared on his palm and was slowly glowing. A heat stream surged from the mark and continuously flowed into Chen Heng’s body, making him feel exceptionally comfortable as if he had received the support of some power.

This Silver Moon mark did not belong to Chen Heng but had suddenly appeared. This mark suddenly appeared that night after Chen Heng had that dream. However, the mark’s power was weak before coming to the Violet Imperial City. Hence it could only give Chen Heng vague guidance and couldn’t do much. Yet this mark was active now.

‘Is there something in this palace that activated the mark? Or…’ Chen Heng pondered in his heart. Then, he slowly looked at King Violet’s palace not far away.

King Violet lived in the place where all the previous Violet Kings lived. It was also one of the ancestral lands of the Violet Royal Family.

‘Was there something that activated the mark?’ Chen Heng thought to himself and then decided to try it out.

He slowly walked towards King Violet’s palace. No one else could stop him. After all, Chen Heng was not just anyone. He was King Violet’s biological son, the future heir of King Violet. No one else would say anything if he wanted to get close to the palace.

Moreover, this was also proof of his bloodline. King Violet’s palace had the seal left behind by the Violet Royal Family. Therefore, it would instinctively suppress all those who were not of the Silver Moon Royal Family.

Only those with the true Silver Moon bloodline could enter this palace. Otherwise, they would all be rejected. Thus, being able to enter this palace was undoubted proof of one’s bloodline.

Walking into the palace, a vague sense of familiarity emerged in his heart. There was an inexplicable feeling as if a wanderer who had been wandering for a long time had finally found his hometown. The bloodline in his body was constantly throbbing. It was the Silver Moon Royal Family’s bloodline.

The other royal families’ bloodlines, such as the Sun Royal Family’s bloodline, did not become active under the influence of the inexplicable power in the surroundings. Instead, they gradually became silent and seemed to be suppressed to a certain extent. Chen Heng could roughly sense it.

If he were in this palace, the Royal Sun Family’s bloodline power would be greatly suppressed, probably only 70-80% of its power could be used in the end. It didn’t seem to be much, but the suppression was, in fact, very serious.

This was because the Silver Moon bloodline of the Violet Royal Family would be significantly enhanced in this place, quickly widening the gap between the back and forth.

As Chen Heng slowly walked into this palace, the mark on his hand gradually became brighter. Then, a warm current surged from the mark and quickly flowed into Chen Heng’s body. An inexplicable sense of pulling appeared and brought him in another direction.

“What is that place?” Finally, Chen Heng softly asked as he stood before an old tunnel and looked ahead.

“This is a very old palace. The conditions inside are too shabby and unfit for living.” The servant at the side spoke, narrating the history of this area.

Simply put, that was the place where this palace had first taken shape. It was also the palace built by the ancient Silver Moon Royal Family. As for the other palaces, they were instead built by the later Silver Moon kings from generation to generation. Therefore, they were not the original buildings.

Due to the lack of maintenance and original designs that are much unsuitable, the old buildings were no longer suitable for living. So every year, except a few times when they are responsible for offering sacrifices to ancestors, most of them would not enter it.

“Bring me in to take a look.” Chen Heng thought for a moment, then said. The servant nodded respectfully and brought Chen Heng in.

There were no candles around, but a dim silver light was flickering from the many silver gemstones. These were gemstones condensed from the power of the Silver Moon. They could be used in many places and were priceless in the outside world. Yet, they were placed everywhere here, used solely for lighting. One could imagine the wealth of the Silver Moon Royal Family.

Chen Heng walked forward, passed through this narrow and long passage, and reached the end. A long and narrow mural carved from a silver rock appeared before him, with images of various figures.

Chen Heng raised his head to take a look. The first figure’s appearance was the current King Violet. In the mural, his image was majestic and tall. In addition, he wore a crown representing the king on his head, making him look exceptionally valiant. He also appeared much younger compared to today.

“This place is carved with the appearance of every Violet Empire king. In the future, when Your Highness inherits the throne, you will also leave your appearance here.” The servant explained.

Chen Heng nodded, and as he continued to walk forward, the murals appeared one after another before him. The images of the past Violet Empire kings appeared before his eyes. There were men and women among these kings. However, most were very young and exceptionally valiant when they inherited the throne.

Furthermore, the further forward, the more obvious their inhuman characteristics became. Many had obvious scales and horns on their bodies, making them look slightly different from the current Silver Moon royals.

Chen Heng understood that the difference was due to their bloodline. Compared to the current Silver Moon Royal Family, the Silver Moon Royal Family in the past had a richer bloodline, and the Silver Moon power in their bodies was more powerful.

Therefore, it was naturally easier for them to display the characteristics of their ancestors. The silver scales on their bodies were just a piece of cake. Some of them had long horns and silver tails and did not look human at all.

The murals in this image lasted for a long time. The further forward, the more exaggerated the situation became. However, the situation changed again when they reached the end. The murals here were all in the shape of humans, and there were no other features.

They looked like ordinary people from the outside. Yet, each was stunningly beautiful, like a god in the sky.

“One can control his bloodline when his bloodline is rich to a certain extent.” Chen Heng understood as he looked at the images in the murals.

Most of the Silver Moon royals today were in human form because the bloodline in their bodies was gradually thinning, and the ordinary people’s bloodline occupied the majority.

However, the reason these royals in the murals were in human form was that the bloodline in their bodies was too rich to the extent that they could control the changes in their forms. It was the same principle as the saying “no extreme will hold long.”

As Chen Heng reached the last few murals, the kings’ faces were corroded by the wind and sand after so long and looked completely invisible and hazy and could not be seen clearly.

Chen Heng stopped as he saw the image of a woman at the end of the murals. Like the other murals, this woman’s image also appeared very blurry. However, it did not seem to have been corroded by the wind and sand. Instead, it seemed to have been wiped out by someone.

At a glance, ordinary people could only see the image of a woman and could not see anything else. However, this was not the case in Chen Heng’s view. The woman’s image was so clear in Chen Heng’s vision. She looked beautiful,filled with an invisible charm, and every inch of her skin and veins was perfect.

The gods in the sky were perfect. Yet, the woman’s appearance gave people the feeling as if she was better than the gods in the sky and everything in this world as if her existence was the ultimate in this world.

This made Chen Heng, who never cared about this aspect, amazed. Yet the most crucial thing was that the woman’s image was the same as the woman he had seen in his dream.

A silver light gradually flickered in the palm of his hand. That was the Silver Moon mark on Chen Heng’s body. It began to shine uncontrollably and gradually rose at this moment. Then, an inexplicable pulling force appeared from the stone wall before Chen heng and sucked him in. Chen Heng’s figure instantly disappeared. His entire body plunged into the stone wall and directly disappeared from where he was.

Even with his Demigod-level nature, he had no way to resist the pulling force before him and could only silently disappear from where he was. The old servant stood quietly at the side as he looked at Chen Heng, who had been sucked into the stone wall. Not only was there no surprise, but a smile appeared on his face.
