Gou Chen became angry from embarrassment, stood up suddenly, pointed at San Yu and cursed.

"You'd better not forget that you are a lowly actor, and it was this leader who promoted you that gave you your current identity and status!"

Sanyu sneered, his eyes dark and terrifying.

"Gu has always kept it in my heart. I still remember that Gu once said that I would kill you first."

"Are you itchy?"

Gou Chen was furious and was about to punish San Yu when suddenly an extremely strong abdominal pain hit him. He convulsed in pain and fell to the ground, clutching his stomach and groaning softly.

"You...when did you..."

Sanyu said slowly, admiring the painful look of Gou Chen curled up on the ground.

"Although Leader Gu Xiang keeps saying that love is over, he also likes new excitement. I believe he will not refuse a kiss from Gu. Gu hid the poison sac under his tongue and just bit it open and gave it to you."

A twisted smile appeared at the corner of Gouchen's bloody mouth,

"What a beauty trap. You are worthy of being the one I brought out."

Sanyu said bitterly

"You did not die unjustly! Gu Ting Xuanwu said that you already knew who the spy was, and you deliberately exposed Gu's position to the court!"

Gou Chen stared at Xuanwu, coughed up blood, and cursed

"You traitor!"

Xuanwu smiled and ventriloquised.

"Leader, you are so old, it is time for you to abdicate and give way to others."

"That's it!"

When death was imminent, Gou Chen also thought about it. He sat up on the edge of the bed, waved to San Yu, and said while vomiting blood.

"Come here, I will pass the position of leader to you now."

Sanyu hesitated for a moment, walked up to him with a complicated expression, and squatted down.

Gou Chen forced himself to hold San Yu's hand and put his bloody spanner on San Yu's white thumb.

"This is the leader's token. The address is engraved on the inside. All the wealth I have collected over the years is hidden inside. The military symbols and keys are placed under the pillow."

"you……"

Sanyu looked at the dying Gou Chen in surprise. He really didn't expect Gou Chen to have such a resigned attitude. Originally, he thought that if Gou Chen couldn't survive the poison in a short time and struggled to call for help, he would have to inflict another blow.

Gou Chen spit out another mouthful of blood, raised his face, gasped and said weakly.

"Now, I allow you to see my appearance."

Sanyu mustered up the courage and with trembling hands took off the golden half-mask that had been hanging around him every day.

This is an old face that has gone through vicissitudes of life and is full of wrinkles, but the heroic appearance of his youth can still be vaguely seen.

What surprised Sanyu was that there were no so-called burns on his face, but there was a particularly conspicuous green tattoo that took up most of the right side of his face.

Gou Chen's expression became more and more painful, and he spoke intermittently.

"Actually, my true identity is the Crown Prince of the Yan Dynasty. Because of my adultery with the harem concubine, I was demoted to a commoner by my father, tattooed and exiled. Later, I pretended to be the prime minister of the former dynasty and summoned the old troops to resist and was caught. If I had controlled my lust back then, I would have been If you become emperor, the Yan Dynasty may not be destroyed."

He looked at Sanyu with his dull eyes and smiled reluctantly.

"If we really talk about blood relationship, you should call me uncle."

"uncle……"

Sanyu repeated absentmindedly that he had never thought that he still had blood relatives in the world, and that they would die by his own hands now.

Reaching out to touch San Yu's cheek, Gou Chen breathed his last breath.

"Emperor's nephew, the great task of restoring the country will be left to you."

The light of expectation in his eyes disappeared.

Before the old hand could touch San Yu, it fell heavily. Gou Chen's head tilted and he died, while his turbid eyes were still staring at San Yu.

Sanyu silently watched the domineering dark snake leader die in front of him with mixed feelings.

For the crazy believers of Dark Snake, this is the death of a "god", but what they don't know is that this god who claims to be able to grant them eternal life turns out to be just a deposed prince from the previous dynasty.

Sanyu did not regret killing Gou Chen. If Gou Chen had not forced him to embark on this path of no return, Rong Chen would not have died.

But during this period, Gou Chen taught him a lot, such as strategy and calculation, formation of troops, controlling people's hearts, etc., which benefited him a lot.

Sanyu is a person who lacks love, so when Gou Chen teaches him step by step, for a few moments, he will even forget to hate Gou Chen and regard him as his teacher.

Now that Gou Chen is dead, San Yu will face a huge, uncontrollable, and complicated dark organization alone. He is unsure and even a little afraid.

With a slight sigh, he closed Gou Chen's eyes with his hands, and then stood up.

He was a little curious about Gou Chen's perspective, so he put the golden mask in his hand on his face.

Seeing the world through the eye holes of the mask is a bit illusory and trance-like.

It's like I'm acting in a drama wearing facial makeup.

The "uncle" vomiting blood in front of him is a dummy, the Xuanwu with a sinister smile is an actor, the bed is a prop, and the entire dark room is just a temporary scene...

This feeling is very good. Life is like a play. Just treat everything as a play.

In this way, he will not be afraid of witnessing those bloody and cruel scenes again, nor will his conscience hurt.

When those soldiers raised their swords and struck at him, he thought he was playing the role of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, and he would not be so afraid of war and death.

He gained great courage from this mask and told Xuanwu Mingdao.

"Put this body into servant clothes and dispose of it. Announce to the outside world that Emperor Gouchen was urgently summoned by the Heavenly Court and returned to the Heavenly Palace to receive orders. He will return soon. He will temporarily pass on the position of leader to Gu and take charge of mortal affairs."

Just when Xuanwu was about to take off Chen's clothes, Sanyu added coldly.

"By the way, tell them they may have to wait a little longer. One day in heaven and one year on earth."

Then, he walked out of the house wearing a mask. The guards on both sides understood the reason as soon as they saw his attire, and congratulated Sanyu humbly.

"Welcome to the throne, young master!"

Sanyu nodded slightly and looked up at the dazzling sun in the sky.

A sentence suddenly flashed in his mind -

"Yulang doesn't look good when wearing it, it's so ugly!"

This was what Li Yunxi said to him a long time ago in the Jiaofang Division while making facial makeup gestures on his face.

It’s a true prophecy! Sanyu smiled faintly.
