The next day, You Lan sat up at the first glimmer of dawn.
Her eyes were slightly red and bloodshot.
Last night, when she heard the news of Su Zimo and the others dying, not only was she unable to fall asleep, her heart was even more chaotic and she was no longer sleepy.
You Lan sat by the bed and stared at a corner in deep thought.
Uncle Zheng, who was sitting quietly at the side, opened his eyes slowly and consoled softly, "Princess, you're not to be blamed for this. You don't have to feel guilty at all."
"There are some things that you'll be able to accept once you're older."
"Yes,"
You Lan took a deep breath and nodded. "Uncle Zheng, I know. Right now, the most important thing for me is to revive my dynasty! "
Her gaze turned resolute once more. "Nothing and no one can stop me from rebuilding Great You!"
"I'm relieved that you have that belief."
Uncle Zheng nodded with a smile. "Princess, I have good news for you. If nothing goes wrong, the two Imperial Advisors of Great Shang and Great Xia will assist you as well. "
"Really?"
You Lan's eyes lit up.
If she could obtain the help of the two Dharma Daojun, her hopes of rebuilding Great You would increase!
Uncle Zheng nodded. "Those two princes have no ambitions and are useless. The two of them unintentionally revealed their intentions to follow you, princess."
"As long as you nod your head, I'll lobby for you today and win the two of them over completely!"
"Alright!"
You Lan bowed deeply to Uncle Zheng and said sincerely, "I'll have to trouble you then, Uncle Zheng. You'll forever be the Imperial Advisor of Great You and my teacher!"
"Let's go. You haven't slept the entire night. Let's go out for a breather."
Uncle Zheng stood up and said.
You Lan nodded and pushed open the door. A fresh wave of spirit qi surged over and she was invigorated.
Instinctively, You Lan's gaze shifted to a room not far away.
That room should have been occupied by a cultivator with delicate features.
But now, he was probably a cold corpse.
Right then, the door was pushed open with a creak.
A familiar figure walked out from inside. He was dressed in a green robe and had sleepy eyes. He stood at the door with his hands raised high and stretched lazily!
You Lan's petite mouth gradually widened in shock as she stared at the figure without blinking, rooted to the spot.
As if sensing You Lan's gaze, Su Zimo turned his head and looked at her. He greeted her with a smile, "Good morning."
"Ah!"
You Lan exclaimed softly with a flustered expression. Instinctively, she replied, "Morning."
"You, you, how did you …"
You Lan blinked but did not know how to ask.
Although she had countless questions when she saw that Su Zimo was still alive, in the depths of her heart, she let out a long sigh of relief and even felt an indescribable joy.
Uncle Zheng was originally in the house. When he heard the commotion outside, he frowned and walked out to take a look. He was also stunned on the spot.
"You're still alive?"
Uncle Zheng did not hide his surprise and asked directly.
Su Zimo had a calm expression. "I'm indeed tired from the journey. I slept soundly. How could I have died?"
When he saw that Su Zimo did not seem to be faking it, Uncle Zheng was stunned instead.
Right then, Night Spirit walked out from behind Su Zimo.
Thereafter, Nien Qi appeared.
Finally, the Golden Lion walked out as well.
The group of four was safe and sound. There was no sign of injury at all!
How was that possible?
Uncle Zheng was confused.
Late last night, he clearly sensed that the two Imperial Advisors of Great Xia and Great Shang had entered Su Zimo's room.
Furthermore, the two of them had specially set up a spirit consciousness barrier!
Could it be that something had happened that caused the two Imperial Advisors to not make a move?
Uncle Zheng was prepared to make a move and ask the two Imperial Advisors what happened in that room last night!
Right then, a tragic cry sounded from the rooms of the princes of Great Shang and Great Xia.
Immediately after, an even more shrill cry rang out. It was as if the owner of the voice had received a great shock, and the voice was filled with endless fear!
Uncle Zheng's expression changed. He did not have time to think about why Su Zimo was still alive. In a flash, he rushed towards the rooms of the two princes.
The old man's movement technique was extremely fast and did not look like he was in his twilight years.
You Lan followed hurriedly as well.
Smiling faintly, Su Zimo strolled towards the room in a leisurely manner.
Bang!
Uncle Zheng knocked open the door and rushed in. When he focused his gaze, he could not help but gasp and take half a step back instinctively.
"Uncle Zheng, what's wrong?"
You Lan welcomed him and asked hurriedly when she saw that something was amiss with Uncle Zheng's expression. She then glanced into the room.
This glance also gave her a fright, and the blood drained from her face.
The room was filled with an extremely strong stench of blood and a thick aura of death that was nauseating.
There were two corpses lying on the two beds facing the door. There was a pool of blood beneath them that had already dyed the bed red and was almost dry – it was clear that they had been dead for a long time.
Although the two corpses had their backs facing the door, Uncle Zheng and You Lan could recognize them from their backs.
The two corpses were the Imperial Advisors of Great Shang and Great Xia!
The two Dharma Daojun were dead!
Who did it?
Why was it so quiet? Why was there no sound at all?
The two of them had snuck into Su Zimo's room last night – how did they die here?
Countless questions surged in their minds.
Uncle Zheng and You Lan's minds were in a mess.
The death of the two Imperial Advisors sent chills down Uncle Zheng's spine as well.
This meant that he was also in immense danger and could die at any moment!
Uncle Zheng was an Imperial Advisor of a dynasty and a Dharma Characteristic expert after all. He merely took a few deep breaths and calmed down before entering the room.
You Lan suppressed her disgust and followed him in.
Uncle Zheng looked around and did not find any clues.
There were no signs of a fight either.
"Y-Y-Don't come over!"
Inside the huge bed, the prince of Great Xia curled up in a corner with a terrified expression. His body trembled as he looked at Uncle Zheng and the others with a trembling voice.
On the other bed, the prince of Great Shang was not in a much better state.
Just Now, the two tragic cries were unsurprisingly from the two princes.
When the two of them woke up, they saw the two Imperial Advisors that they relied on as corpses lying beside them, staring at them with a pair of dead fish eyes. Who could bear it?
Although the two of them were Genying Zhenjun, they were mentally deranged from the sudden shock.
Uncle Zheng came to the bed and could not help but frown when he smelled the stench of feces and urine.
The two princes were so scared that they peed and peed their pants. They no longer had their former glory as they huddled in a corner, trembling like rats with nowhere to run.
Uncle Zheng clenched his fists slightly and flipped the corpses of the two Imperial Advisors over.
Both of them had terrified expressions and their protruding eyes were filled with immense fear!
Even though he was prepared, his heart skipped a beat.
It was truly hard to imagine how frightened the two Dharma Daojun were before they died for them to reveal such expressions!
