Chapter 449 Don’t Let Junior Sister’s Heart Become Like a Durian…
"what?"
Nangong Yan looked puzzled.
Ji Chen pointed his eyes in the direction of Dongfang Che and whispered:
"The four of us went to rob the prison. The eldest brother has a longer reaction time. Although he cares about the younger sister, he won't interfere too much unless the other party does something too obvious.
You have to keep an eye on that guy, don't wait for us to come back and have him rob our house again!"
Hearing this, Nangong Yan's mouth twitched slightly:
"Based on Junior Sister's attitude towards that guy, I don't even need to be on guard. That guy doesn't stand a chance!"
"That being said, and it's destined to happen in the future...but the longer it can be delayed, the better. Junior Sister treated him like that before, so why is he inexplicably moved by her?
It all feels so far-fetched!
This person's stance is unclear, so we must be on guard!"
Although Ji Chen is naive most of the time, he has lived in the treacherous palace on earth for more than ten years and has seen too many palace fighting tactics, so naturally he would not think people are simple.
In particular, Dongfang Che served as the national teacher of Lingyuan Kingdom for more than 300 years.
Even if he really has other feelings for Chu You, is he really willing to stand against the Lingyuan Kingdom that he has protected for more than three hundred years?
What's more, his master said that most of the forces in the fairy world are corrupt from the root. Just look at the collusion between the Ye family in Tianfu City of Lingyuan Kingdom and the evil cultivators of Xieyue Sect, and the Dali Immortal Lord publicly slandering Chu You and others as evil cultivators. It's hard to make Ji Chen believe that there is no connection between the roots of Lingyuan Kingdom and the evil cultivators of Xieyue Sect!
Dongfang Che’s position is very delicate.
Is he really unaware?
Or is he pretending to be ignorant while knowing the truth, but in fact he is just like those evil cultivators, trying to completely destroy Chu You psychologically?
It’s really hard to draw conclusions too early now.
After all, this man killed Chu You once!
Therefore, Ji Chen could not help but explain again:
"Don't take it lightly. If Junior Sister's heart becomes as bitter as a durian, we'll be in big trouble!"
"What do you mean?"
Nangong Yan didn't understand for a moment.
Ji Chen rolled his eyes arrogantly:
"My heart is full of people!"
Nangong Yan: "...Who did you learn these messed up metaphors from?"
"My mother!"
Ji Chen did not hide it:
"She always uses this to tease my father."
Nangong Yan: "Okay..."
Ji Chen's method of gaining favor by following the example of others is fortunate that he has the bloodline of the nine-tailed fox clan, otherwise, it would be difficult for him to have a place among such diverse husbands as Chu You!
The two groups exchanged greetings before going their separate ways.
……
The imperial capital of Lingyuan Kingdom, the imperial study in the palace.
The waiter had gone in and out countless times to clean up the broken teacups, teacups and various displays.
The people who served the empress were all trembling with fear, even holding their breath.
I am afraid that if I am not careful, I will be killed.
Ever since the highly respected and admired national teacher was kidnapped by a group of evil monks including Chu You, the empress who had always been dignified and elegant seemed to have become a different person.
Her temperament became extremely irritable and her moods became increasingly unpredictable.
In just half a month, more than a dozen female officials suffered misfortune and died.
These female officials served the empress diligently on a daily basis, but if they were not careful enough to anger her, they would be killed.
The fate of the male servants and palace maids who made mistakes was even worse. The number of them killed was simply countless.
For a moment, the entire palace was shrouded in blood and fear.
You know, this empress has been in power for more than two hundred years, and during this period she has always been known for her kindness and generosity.
Such a cruel and bloodthirsty situation has never happened before!
Everyone was terrified, and they couldn't help but recall the mysterious fable that had been divined by the Star-Picking Tower:
"As long as the Imperial Master is here, Lingyuan will prosper; if he leaves, Lingyuan will decline!"
Could it be that this terrible prophecy is really about to come true?
People talked about it a lot, but they didn't dare to speak rashly, for fear that they would accidentally bring disaster upon themselves.
Although no one says it openly, in fact, among the seven countries, the three human countries have the strongest overall strength.
Among the three human kingdoms, the Spiritual Abyss Kingdom is the most powerful.
They had long been the "dominant force", but at this peak of their power, the national teacher was captured by an evil cultivator!
This makes them wonder whether the destiny of Lingyuan Kingdom will be affected?
Will it start to decline from now on?
"Useless! A bunch of useless people! It's been half a month, and there's no news from you at all?
Are the salaries and resources we give you on a daily basis all for nothing?!"
Empress Shangguan Xiyue roared uncontrollably, knowing that this would damage her image as the empress.
But whenever she thought that Dongfang Che might have reconciled with Chu You and fallen in love with her, she became so jealous that she wanted to destroy the whole world.
The kneeling female officials were trembling with fear. Only Sun Xiangyun, the Immortal Lord of Dali, dared to look up and reply:
"Your Majesty, we are always in communication with the other six nations, major sects, and noble families, but we still have no news about Chu You and other evil cultivators.
Maybe, maybe... they are no longer in the Immortal Realm, and have fled back to the Cultivation Realm to hide?"
"impossible!"
Empress Shangguan Xiyue denied it without even thinking:
“The only passage from the Immortal Realm to the Cultivation Realm that we have detected so far is the one in the center of the Immortal Realm that is jointly guarded by the three nations of Lingyuan, Yuheng, and Xingluo.
The place is guarded by peak immortals, so even if they have a hiding place, they can't escape their detection!"
Sun Xiangyun didn't know how to respond to this. When she was hesitating about what to do, she heard Shangguan Xiyue speak coldly:
“Since they are hiding in the dark, we should intensify our efforts.
Notify the 'Immortal Alliance' that, effective immediately, ten immortals who ascended from the cultivation world will be executed.
As long as Chu You and the others don't surrender, I will execute ten of them every day, the kind that will be executed by slow slicing, with their souls scattered all over the place!"
"But this still needs to be brought to the Immortal Alliance meeting, where it needs to be decided by a vote..."
"How do you get a unanimous vote? Do you need me to teach you?"
"Yes!"
Sun Xiangyun took a deep breath and retreated silently.
After she walked away, the Dali Xian Deputy Minister beside her couldn't help but whispered:
"Lord Sun, what exactly did His Majesty mean by what he just said? Why do I always feel that the recent massacres were not committed by Chu You and others?
Our alliance is spread all over the fairy world. Whenever a case occurs, our people can arrive in almost a cup of tea, but we have never found any trace of Chu You and others.
Even if they had three heads and six arms, it would be impossible for them to escape so smoothly every time, right?
Isn't it just that someone is deliberately framing them?"
Sun Xiangyun immediately gave the other party a warning look:
"Master Li, be careful with your words!
Chu You and other evil cultivators are full of tricks, and their cultivation methods are evil and strange. Otherwise, how could we have searched for such a long time and still not seen even the slightest trace of them? "
The deputy minister wanted to say something, but Sun Xiangyun had already strode forward, and she had no choice but to follow.
In the Imperial Study, Shangguan Xiyue was just about to secretly contact some shadowy forces when Ouyang Huamian, who rarely entered the palace, arrived at this moment and brought Shangguan Xiyue shocking news:
"Cousin Empress, cousin Empress, something terrible has happened! You must help me this time!"
Although Shangguan Xiyue was already very annoyed, she had to patiently reply gently due to the strength of Baibaozhai:
"What exactly is going on?
Huamian, you might as well speak slowly.
Whatever I can do to help you, I will definitely help you."
Ouyang Huamian finally took a breath and drank some water:
"Cousin Empress, I finally have a clue about my elder brother!"
"Your elder brother? Ouyang Ziqian?"
Shangguan Xiyue's eyebrows twitched. "Isn't this a good thing? Why are you still like this?"
Ouyang Huamian was about to cry:
"I did find him, but he went to the world of cultivation after he gained the immortal bone. Now he has actually ascended to the immortal world with Chu You and others, and he uses the alias 'Shangguan Ziqian'!
I heard that Chu You and all the cultivators who ascended from the cultivation world were related to the Evil Moon Sect and other evil cultivators.
But my eldest brother hates evil practitioners the most in his life, and he absolutely would not practice those unorthodox methods.
Cousin Empress, if the Immortal Alliance captures my elder brother, could you please show some mercy and let him go?
After a pause, Ouyang Huamian quickly extended his hand to assure:
"Don't worry, cousin Empress. I will definitely help him see the true nature of You and other evil cultivators and make him stop before it's too late!"
