Within the depths of the Imperial Palace.

Di Hong Palace.

The vast hall was empty, shrouded in ignorant darkness, and an unspeakably terrifying pressure enveloped the entire hall.

Above the Imperial Platform.

The man adorned in a Mysterious Robe and Crown, with a five-colored diadem upon his head, gazed silently at the Divine Emperor's Throne. Beneath the lightly swaying nine strands of the diadem were eyes indifferent as the heavens, and on his exceedingly handsome face, there was not the slightest ripple of emotion.

The Crown Prince stood still atop the dimly lit hall, like a lifelike statue.

"Stop looking; you can't bear it."

Suddenly, a gentle male voice echoed through the hall.

Below the Imperial Platform, a wheelchair appeared, on which sat a young and handsome man with prematurely white hair, looking somewhat frail and sickly.

Compared with the Crown Prince's terrifying pressure, his ordinary and insignificant breath, like that of a mortal, was so inconspicuous.

Yet, he seemed unbothered by the Crown Prince's pressure and only calmly lifted his head to gaze at the Crown Prince.

"The Inheritance Altar has collapsed."

The Crown Prince slowly turned to look at the Second Prince below him and emotionlessly said, "It seems you all guessed correctly; there is indeed a glimmer of hope for the Human Clan outside Eternal Night. But based on my calculations, they are still destined to fail."

The Second Prince smiled and calmly said, "If Heavenly Calculation could predict those inscrutable by fortune, why didn't you foresee the Star Lord? Don't tell me it was human nature interfering with your calculations again. The Sixteenth Prince is not someone inscrutable by fortune, yet you didn't foresee him, did you?"

Silence fell upon the hall.

After a long while, the Crown Prince indifferently said, "I simply make decisions based on the most likely direction for the survival of the Eternal Night Clan. Hasn't it always been this way?"

The Second Prince fell silent too.

After some time, he suddenly chuckled and said, "Now you are even less humane than His Majesty. Since you are no longer even human, what reason do you have to stand on the side of the Human Clan?"

The Crown Prince furrowed his brow slightly.

In that moment, a strange distortion suddenly emerged above his head, and several gazes peered down from it, all focusing on the Second Prince.

The Crown Prince's expression returned to indifference, and he articulated each word, "Existence does not require a reason."

Again, the Second Prince laughed but did not continue to argue. He simply said, "Now even the Twelfth Prince wants to break the rules. One by one, they do the same. Will you ignore it again this time? Do you realize that it's precisely because of your repeated indulgence that the rules are broken over and over?"

He observed the Crown Prince and slowly continued, "Even if you have lost your humanity, have you also forgotten the fairness of being a brother? Aren't you supposed to be the most impartial?"

"This is true justice."

The Crown Prince replied expressionlessly, "The rules set by His Majesty were only meant to give later princes and princesses a chance to compete while alive. Since they won't die, what's a little hardship? In the end, only a more suitable outcome is needed, only a new Divine Emperor... Besides, what the Twelfth Prince has done, compared to what you did back then, what does it amount to? If His Majesty were to be fair, would not the Eternal Night Clan have been extinguished already?"

He gazed toward the outside of Di Hong City, saying, "If we were to pursue fairness, we should have sacrificed the Seventeenth Prince to become..."

"How dare you!!"

The Second Prince's face suddenly turned icy, and a murderous intent that defied description burst from his eyes as he pronounced each word, "You are certainly welcome to try. Worst case scenario, we'll return to Eternal Night."

The Crown Prince was silent for a moment before saying, "Your end will be miserable."

"Do you think I care?" The Second Prince laughed.

Then, with utmost seriousness, he said, "If I could, I would very much like to see you disappear."

"I know."

The Crown Prince spoke softly, "I will not favor any side, nor will I lay a hand on the Seventeenth Prince. As for you... you are already in no position to care for yourself, and yet you concern yourself with these matters? Do you still have the capacity?"

The Second Prince did not reply but slowly said, "Remember your words."

To the north of Di Hong City.

At the exit of the Beiyuan Mountain, the nearby area was now shrouded in a blackness intermixed with specks of starlight, with its essence entirely sealed off.

"Hm? What's going on?"

"This... what a terrifying Array!"

"How did the exit from Beiyuan Mountain suddenly get sealed?"

"The presence of the Array Establishment... It's the Ascetic!"

"What does the Ascetic mean by this?"

"Should we report it?"

Outside the Array Barrier, at the post station, figures of Great Cultivators from various regions suddenly flew out, all of them looking on in astonishment at this scene.

Among the many Great Cultivators, a tall and beautiful woman dressed in a black Martial Artist Robe, with furrowed brows, was followed by four Great Cultivators.

It was none other than Baili Fengzhi.

She had arrived at this post station by the exit of Beiyuan Mountain as agreed upon today, bringing along four Minister Elders from the Prince Mansion to wait for His Highness, only to find the exit sealed by an Array?

At this moment, an elder dressed in splendid clothing appeared beside Baili Fengzhi, unmistakably Duke Heng.

The space around him subtly distorted and changed, his presence completely concealed, such that none of the nearby Great Cultivators noticed him.

"Long Night Meteor Array?"

Duke Heng furrowed his brow and communicated via Divine Thought Transmission, "This is a treasure of Prince Cheng Mansion, crafted by an Array Master with endless painstaking effort. It even includes a component of a Saint Level Array. How did it appear here?"

"Lord Qi, could it be that Prince Cheng intends to take action against His Highness?" Baili Fengzhi transmitted via Divine Thought.

"Impossible."

Duke Heng, still frowning, replied, "The rules set by His Majesty dictate an eye for an eye. If the Twelfth Prince dares to kill His Highness, he pays with his life; if he dares to block His Highness's path of cultivation, his path of cultivation should be severed too. It's the same if it's done by his people."
