Chapter 50: Legend of Concubine Zhen Huan, An Lingrong
"Your Majesty, Noble Lady Hui is shielding Noble Lady Wan; she deliberately left out the crucial details," Yu Ying'er said loudly. "Your Majesty, you can send someone to interrogate the other palace maids and eunuchs to find out who was truly insubordinate."
Hearing these words, Shen Meizhuang was filled with regret.
Imperial Concubine Jing felt immensely fortunate.
The Emperor's indifferent gaze swept over Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan. From their expressions alone, it was evident that Shen Meizhuang's account probably diverged somewhat from the truth.
Fortunately, the quintuple damage effect was triggered, and deep blue blood gushed from beneath the neck of the Freezing Guardian.
"Oh, by the way, hubby, I wonder if our Qianqian has taken a fancy to any young man yet," Mother Gong said to Father Gong, unable to suppress her excitement.
Without any anomaly, after selecting the Rock Town in her consciousness, she was instantly teleported there.
"The Chief must have something important to discuss since you came to see us so early." Between the two, Kong Xu was somewhat sharper than Zhao Tuo; after returning Mu Chen's greeting, he asked.
Beside the corpse of the Savage Commander, besides a set of savage armor and several ordinary silver-tier equipment, another bottle of blood was dropped once more.
Following the screening of the second trial, only thirty-five remained, with Feng Wu, Vivian, and Xiang Qian advancing without a doubt.
Chu Yu nodded. In fact, Chu Yu had already guessed it. The murderous intent Yuchen displayed was undoubtedly directed at the Long family. Since the Long family actually wanted to kill him, he naturally wouldn't sit around and wait for death. "Have you thought of this?"
Chen Si shrugged and said, "The method is actually a bit simple, but you'll have to endure a little suffering." With that, Chen Si took out that flat, black box. Gu Fengchun had a profound impression of this box; it was the very sandalwood box Chen Si used to hold his silver needles.
Although the massacre in which Cai Jun participated was later viewed by the Three Qin soldiers as a betrayal among allies, it also served as a certain deterrent to them. Since even their allies had grown weary of their cowardice and retreat, as soldiers, they had completely lost their dignity.
Was it truly his innate talent, or some miraculous elixir? Or perhaps, Feng Wu's master possessed some unique methods?
Next to William Zhu hung a vertical, movable intravenous pole, connected to an IV drip that was injecting medicine into his body through a tube.
The medicinal efficacy of that Great Returning Pill was completely absorbed, and the true essence within his meridians grew stronger by another fraction.
However, it was merely a head-on collision. Under the restraint of the vanguard commanders on both sides, there was no deep-level cutting or pincer infiltration. Therefore, although this battle seemed fiercely fought on the surface, it lacked depth—or rather, it lacked sufficient tragic intensity.
For the members of the Yuncheng Sect, if Di Yunchen's disappearance for two years followed by his sudden return announcing the sect's ascension to a Pole Sect felt unbelievable to them, then his announcement of the Yuncheng Sect's ascension to a Divine Sect while still away made all the Yuncheng disciples feel as though they were living in a dream.
Chu Ye no longer wandered outside and immediately returned to the Southern Wind Holy City. After a frantic journey that took only seven days, he returned to the Ye family residence. Curiously, Golden Baby and Ou Yi were not in the courtyard; instead, Chu Ye found a black, transparent piece of jade in the secret room.
His cultivation was firmly stabilized at the second step of Dao-slaughter, but to reach the third step, the celestial spiritual energy required was still far from enough.
As soon as they entered the captain's room, an energy array immediately rose, completely isolating their aura and making it impossible for the outside world to detect.
The red tip of the Scarlet City Great Spear instantly transformed into a ferocious and terrifying dragon head, and with a loud boom, it pierced straight through the forehead of this puppet.
Wang Ke inwardly rolled his eyes, wearing a wry expression, and gathered together with Chen Yanzhu, Zhou Hongqiang, and the Song brothers.
Those who appeared nearby heard the old man's loud shout, which instantly felt like a thunderclap exploding beside their ears, leaving them dizzy and their vision blurred. Everyone's expressions changed drastically in extreme shock; the strength of the person residing in this courtyard was formidable indeed. It seemed the scene here was not something they could covet, and it would be wise to leave early.
