Grand Prince Edgeworth hated himself for his stupidity!
Why did he not think of that girl, Edaline, earlier on?!
Compared to their seniors, the new generation of Imperial Guards not only had a purer bloodline and stronger strength, they also had a more unique mindset.
Who could have imagined?
Among the Imperial Guards, there were actually four people who did not fight for fame or seek benefits and believed in the goddess wholeheartedly to uphold the order of the mortal realm and carry out their duties diligently?!
It was absolutely ridiculous!
However, upon careful analysis, one would discover that the ratio was not outrageous.
After all, two of the four people mentioned above possessed divine blood with a purity of more than 90%—they were practically incarnates of Goddess Order.
It was normal for Histia and Edaline to not have any secular desires.
However, even for these immortals with 90% divine blood...
At the end of the day, there would still be personal traits and preferences.
For example, Edaline!
The grand prince did not know what this fella liked.
However, it was obvious that she hated Rayne Haines!
Actually, there were many people in the palace who could not understand.
Edaline and Rayne were siblings after all. Why was their relationship so terrible?
There was no need to discuss the sister. She had no respect for her elders and cursed her brother everyday. Whenever someone mentioned the issue of succession to the throne in front of her, she had a gaze that could practically kill.
As for Rayne, ever since his interest in a married woman's warmth was awakened one random day, he spent his days in the capital immersed in wine and NTR, having almost no interactions with his sister.
However…
The grand prince could understand Edaline.
As a noble descendant of the Crystal Goddess, he knew very well why Edaline hated Rayne.
Rayne Haines was the prince of the Empire and Edaline's biological brother.
However, compared to his invincible younger sister, Rayne was pathetically weak!

Simply put, he was just an ordinary person with nothing but some bloodline purity.
Any descendant of the gods who possessed divine blood would still possess extremely powerful strength even if they had not crossed the critical threshold and ascend to become a conventional demigod.

Empress Cassius was a good example of that.
As a member of the royal family, Cassius possessed the noblest bloodline of the Haines Empire. The three generations before her gave birth to a shocking number of five Imperial Guards!
As for her, although she did not complete the ascension, with her high purity divine blood, she could still be considered as the top echelon right beneath the Imperial Guards.
Although she looked weak, in reality, her physique was as strong as a demonic machine.
It was nothing difficult for her to crush mountains when she released her full strength.
Furthermore, her magic powers were ridiculously strong.
If she spared no expense, she could even forcibly release forbidden curses exclusive to demigods!
However, what about Rayne?
Although Empress Cassius was not an Imperial Guard, she was willing to be chaste for life just like them.
Under the arrangement of the Church, she copulated with a noble man who was the most suitable for her.
That perfect recipe allowed her to give birth to new life with the highest chance of becoming an Imperial Guard.
Under such circumstances, even if Rayne could not synchronize with the divinity of Goddess Order due to his gender, it was not a big problem for him to be the number one beneath the Imperial Guards.
However, in reality…
Rayne was so mediocre that it shocked everyone and he could even be considered as a miracle!
He was an unbelievable miracle similar to his sister, the Imperial Guard who ascended her bloodline to 90% purity!
Fufu…
The grand prince could not help but sneer.
The mere fact that this embarrassment of a brother was alive was probably an insult for Edaline.
If it was the grand prince, he would want to cut ties with Rayne as soon as possible and wished for the latter to die!
Clearly, apart from her status as an Imperial Guard, Edaline was also an intelligent, noble and rational royalty that belonged to the proud descendants of the Crystal Goddess!
That was because she knew very well that it was a mistake to let a piece of trash like Rayne inherit the Empire!
On the other hand, there was Grand Prince Edgeworth.
Although he did not have the chance to display his strength normally, he was still a famous expert!
With a single slap, he could kill a hundred trash like Rayne!
No matter how one looked at it, as the brother of the Empress with a noble bloodline and innate strength, he was more qualified to be the Emperor of Haines, right?
However, out of doting love and guilt towards Rayne, Cassius decided to hand over the throne of the Haines Empire to such a cripple!

It was completely unreasonable!
This time round, the grand prince was going to join forces with Edaline to get rid of Rayne completely! He wanted to lead the Haines Empire into a bright future!
"Men! Go and get Edaline to meet me!"
"There's no need."
However, the moment the grand prince said that…
The space behind him was shattered by a powerful attack.
Edaline walked out of the shattered void.
She asked indifferently, "Why are you looking for me?"
The perception of the Imperial Guards could easily cover the entire capital. Everyone who lived in the capital was actually under the surveillance of the Imperial Guards—that was an open secret.
Clearly, Edaline was eavesdropping on the grand prince and had teleported over because she was coincidentally free.
Haha…
The grand prince snickered internally.
This niece of mine is rather proactive towards my summons. Seems like there's hope!
The grand prince revealed a kind smile. "Edalin—no, my dear niece. Actually, there's something I want to discuss with you."
"Is that so?"
Edaline glanced at the grand prince casually.
By now, she could basically guess what the grand prince wanted from her.
Edaline said, "Speak."
The grand prince smiled and asked, "My dear niece, what do you think of the future of the Haines Empire?"
Edaline replied, "Nothing."
"Don't you have… any opinions?"
The grand prince asked suggestively, "For example, don't you think that our great motherland is facing danger and she's about to be destroyed in the hands of a cripple born with disabilities?"
A cripple… born with disabilities.
Edaline asked, "Are you referring to Rayne?"
The grand prince nodded repeatedly and chuckled. "My dear niece is smart indeed!"
Edaline said indifferently, "Your Highness, you've lived for so long but in the end, you only possess the same resources you've had since you were born. Does that give you a sense of superiority?"

The smile on the grand prince's face froze instantly.
"Mmm, cough, cough…"
The grand prince coughed awkwardly and felt extremely aggrieved.
It was clear that Edaline was not as easy to get along with as the grand prince had imagined…
If it was anyone else, the grand prince might have turned them into ashes on impulse.
However…
The person before him right now was one of the strongest Imperial Guards in the history of Haines.
The grand prince let out a bitter smile. "Dear niece, what do you mean? Don't you feel the same way?"
Edaline did not bother to elaborate and asked directly, "So, you want to replace him as the Emperor of Haines?"
"Ah, this…"
The grand prince was stunned.
Initially, the grand prince wanted to test Edaline step by step and get close to her before slowly shifting into the topic of seizing power.
However, Edaline was not a patient person.
Left with no choice, the grand prince could only lay his cards on the table with her.
The grand prince revealed a helpless expression. "I've never thought of usurping anyone's position. However, I have the right to defend the soil of Haines. This is my responsibility as a member of the royal family. What do you think, Edaline?"
With that said, he looked at Edaline nervously.
He was waiting for Edaline's reply.
Unlike Hela and Lilia, the grand prince could not offer any conditions that could satisfy Edaline.
She was truly way too strong—this was a supreme demigod.
In the entire history of the mortal world, there could not be a third demigod similar to her. Her existence was almost comparable to the descent of the actual goddess.
Apart from Histia, she had no opponents in the mortal world. In fact, even those mythical monsters that were dormant in the mortal world might not be able to defeat her.
The entire mortal world was a treasure chest for her taking.
For such an existence…
The grand prince could not offer any conditions for negotiation.
The only thing the grand prince could gamble on was Edaline's antipathy towards Rayne.
Since Edaline did not wish for Rayne to be the Emperor of Haines...
Sponsored Content
In that case, someone had to take on the role of the Emperor eventually.
Clearly, the grand prince was the best option...
In reality, indeed, Edaline had the same thought.
Edaline did not wish for Rayne to ascend to the crystal throne.
Naturally, it would be best if she could replace Rayne before the latter ascended the throne.
She had long known that the grand prince had ambitions towards the crystal throne.
However, she had never made up her mind on supporting the grand prince to take down Rayne.
That was because if Edaline was truly on the side of the grand prince…
She would most likely become a complete enemy in Rayne's heart.
Theoretically, as an Imperial Guard, Edaline should not interfere in the politics of Haines and should remain neutral in this power struggle.
Therefore, if she assisted the grand prince as an Imperial Guard… it would definitely be a malicious betrayal towards Rayne.
Rayne would hate her to death.
However...
It did not matter any longer.
What Rayne thought of her was no longer important nor did she care.
Right now, Edaline only wanted to kick that fool away from the crystal throne.
After a long silence, Edaline made up her mind.
Edaline said, "I don't think it's a good idea to let that trash be the Emperor either."
"That's right!"
The grand prince was delighted. "As expected of my dear niece. You're truly someone who is righteous and considers the big picture. Alright, when should we make a move?"
Edaline asked, "Make a move?"
The grand prince smiled menacingly. "To get rid of that embarrassing brother of yours, of course!"
Edaline fell silent.
Instantly…
The atmosphere turned cold and murderous.
