"He is my brother!"
A simple statement, yet it rang with unshakable conviction.
The moment he spoke, a dead silence fell over Bright Mirror Lake. People even forgot to breathe.
Who was Xiahuang Shang?
Without a doubt, he was the man in the entire Xiahuang Ancient Kingdom closest to the supreme throne!
If he weren't the Emperor's fifth Prince instead of the firstborn, his ascension to the throne would have been a certainty.
Even so, those in the Xiahuang Ancient Kingdom who could rival Xiahuang Shang's status and power could be counted on one hand!
If a man like him so much as smiled at someone, it would be considered the blessing of a lifetime.
Countless factions vied to curry his favor.
But now…
He was actually claiming Hong Yu was his brother?
What did the word "brother" mean?
Aside from one's own kin, it meant a bond forged through life and death, a friendship for which one would willingly lay down their life!
Hong Yu and Xiahuang Shang shared that kind of bond?
