Ancestral Wealth Inheritance System

Chapter 736: I am Bernard's Attorney



The appearance of the two demigods completely shattered the Crown Prince's psychological defenses. He knew very well that if they insisted on targeting Bernard, the people of the Zolage civilization would absolutely not let it go!

"I'll take you to him," the Crown Prince sighed. "All of you stand down. If they want to make a move against me, none of you can stop them. Inform Father about this and tell him not to act rashly."

"Yes, Crown Prince." The thirteen Tomb Guards nodded, casting a heavy glance at Fang Jueyu, seemingly wanting to see what divine skills he possessed that enabled him to command even demigods.

"This Zolage civilization might be more terrifying than we imagined!" In the minds of these Transcenders, the original Zolage civilization was merely a concoction of some extraordinary young people.

But now, with the appearance of two previously unseen demigods, they couldn't help but question if their understanding was flawed, if there truly existed such a civilization hidden somewhere in the universe.

Demigod warriors working merely as gatekeepers, janitors, and toilet cleaners in that place—could it be that in this civilization, demigods roamed like commoners and Transcenders were as insignificant as dogs? It was simply unimaginable.

"They are undoubtedly not the only two demigods in the Zolage civilization!" They firmly believed this.

...

"Let's go, I'll take you to find that bastard..." The Crown Prince instinctively wanted to say the word "bastard," but upon seeing Fang Jueyu's eyes glaring at him like a predator, he immediately shut his mouth.

This royal mausoleum was built in the center of the Zinake civilization's palace, but behind this splendid palace lay a place resembling a mass grave.

Whenever servants or ordinary martial artists died in the Zinake Kingdom, their bodies were disposed of here.

Bernard's mother, having been violated by foreigners, had become a complete disgrace to the Zinake Kingdom. She had no right to be buried in the royal mausoleum and could only be laid to rest in this mass grave.

At this moment, the mass grave was in chaos. Not long ago, a fierce battle had erupted here—a battle initiated by Bernard while resisting the people sent by the Crown Prince.

However, Bernard was outnumbered. Although he killed hundreds of guards, he was injured, his strength severely depleted, and in desperation, he had to resort to his life-saving device.

As a student of the Beast God at the Cosmic Federation School, Bernard had naturally received some gifts, though not everyone was as indecent as Wang Genji.

It was a highly technological device that, once filled with enough energy, could erect a barrier to protect the user, even capable of resisting a Transcender's power for a short time!

Of course, the device was extremely costly, and not every student of the Beast God could obtain one. Given the similarity in their bloodlines and experiences, perhaps a sense of pity led the Beast God to be generous to Bernard.

From afar, they saw a young man, his face pale, leaning against a small grave. A large patch of scales was torn from his arm, and a horn on his head was broken, clearly indicating severe injury.

But the small grave beside him remained untouched. It was Bernard's mother's grave, one he was determined to protect at all costs.

"Bernard," Fang Jueyu and the others landed in front of him.

Bernard was extremely weak. He opened his eyes, and upon seeing there were only three of them, he immediately became agitated.

"What are you three doing here? I didn't signal you to come to your deaths. Get out of here!" Bernard grew excited, causing his wounds to split open and blood to flow down profusely.

Though the Ninth Prince was just a title, Bernard was keenly aware of the Zinake civilization's power. Just the palace alone contained a hundred Transcenders, and ordinary martial artists charging in was nothing short of suicide.

Fang Jueyu may have been resourceful, but relying solely on themselves, saving him was out of the question, not to mention their inability to even ensure their own safety.

"Who goes there!" The martial artists surrounding Bernard immediately stepped forward, blocking them. They had been tirelessly attacking this prohibition for a long time.

"Stand aside!" At that moment, the Crown Prince landed. Bernard looked at him with deep disgust and hatred, clearly mirrored in the Crown Prince's eyes.

"Zolage, if you dare touch them, I'll make sure you pay the price in blood!" Bernard said through gritted teeth as he glared at the Crown Prince.

Under normal circumstances, Bernard using such a tone would have infuriated the Crown Prince, but with Fang Jueyu nearby, he dared not show any temper, fearing a demigod might appear and take his life.

"Step aside. These are the most distinguished guests of the Zinake Kingdom," the Crown Prince announced. "You can stop now; you're not needed here."

Upon hearing this, although the guards were baffled, they adhered strictly to the Crown Prince's orders and left in an orderly manner.

"What is happening?" Bernard was astonished by the Crown Prince's change in attitude. Was this the same arrogant and domineering Crown Prince from before?

Bernard's instinctive glance at Fang Jueyu confirmed his suspicion that everything was related to him, while Fang Jueyu smiled back at him.

"Go on," the Crown Prince reluctantly suggested, feeling like releasing a tiger back to the mountain, as he had no other choice.

Bernard hesitated, unsure if it was a ploy by the Crown Prince.

"Bernard, don't worry. Even if given ten lives, he wouldn't dare act rashly. You can come out," Fang Jueyu reassured him.

After some hesitation, Bernard nodded, taking out the device given to him by the Beast God. The energy baryte within it had nearly been depleted, leaving it a little dull.

This energy baryte wasn't an ordinary crystal stone. The energy's purity within was extremely high, scarce throughout the universe, sometimes not even available for purchase.

The barrier gradually faded. Lancelot and Panuo quickly helped him up.

"Take this, you'll feel better soon." Fang Jueyu immediately shoved several pills into Bernard's mouth. The medicinal effect spreading through his body quickly eased his pain.

"What exactly is going on?" Bernard asked. "Has my teacher arrived?"

To force the Crown Prince into a compromise, an ordinary King-level Transcender likely didn't have such influence. Bernard speculated they had reached his teacher.

"Nothing really, I just called out my family's gatekeeper and janitor to warn him, and he behaved," Fang Jueyu casually replied.

"Why, don't believe me?" Fang Jueyu asked, noticing Bernard's skeptical expression.

He then glanced at Lancelot and Panuo, who nodded at him, giving affirmative responses.

"Alright, since no one is hurt, I won't make things difficult," Fang Jueyu said.

"Ahh~," Fang Jueyu's words allowed the Crown Prince to breathe a sigh of relief.

"However!" Fang Jueyu emphasized, "As Bernard's acting lawyer, I am now demanding compensation from your civilization for medical expenses, nutrition fees, lost wages, psychological treatment, and other expenses totaling 5 billion source coins!"

"What? 5 billion source coins?" The figure made the Crown Prince shiver and almost collapse. Wasn't he here to save someone? What on earth is this 'acting lawyer' business all about?
