Suddenly, a series of footsteps could be heard from outside and a shrill voice could be heard, "Emperor … Emperor … Things are bad …"
Both of them were startled as they could tell that this voice came from Yu ManLou's wife, the current empress! Just what could have happened to cause the usually calm and steady wife of the empress to be so flustered?
With a bang, the door of the hall was suddenly opened. A middle-aged woman wearing luxurious clothes and a wind crown rushed in like a whirlwind. Her face was full of panic. Her movements were extremely quick and it seemed like her martial arts weren't ordinary either.
"Emperor … Things are bad! The palace guards and palace maids are rebelling!"
"What?" Yu ManLou's body trembled. How was this possible? How could a bunch of eunuchs and palace maids who didn't even have the strength to truss a chicken rebel? Firstly, it was impossible and secondly, it didn't make any sense!
Yu Manlou didn't have the time to ask for more details. He heard a commotion coming from afar, getting closer and closer. In the imperial palace, flames rose into the sky with black smoke. Screams, curses, and the sounds of fighting became noisier and noisier.
Yu ManLou roared in anger, "I'll go take a look!" He then turned around and left.
"I'll go too!" Yu ManTian was still worried and shouted out as he followed behind Yu ManLou.
Yu ManLou looked at him silently and didn't say anything else. The two brothers then walked out one after another.
Outside, the entire imperial palace had already descended into chaos and chaos. The most shocking thing was that the eunuchs and palace maids who were rebelling were all in a frenzy. They didn't even have any weapons in their hands and were fighting with their hands, legs, and teeth. However, all of them were fighting with the powerful guards without any regard for their own safety. It was as though they had gone mad. Perhaps it couldn't even be described as' mad 'because they had truly gone mad!
"They have all lost their minds!" Yu ManLou could tell with a single look. Suddenly, there was a burst of inexplicable doubt in his heart. It should be known that the Imperial Palace was very vast. Who on earth had such great power to be able to drug so many eunuchs and palace maids at the same time? Furthermore, the situation was so serious!
However, just as Yu Manlou was considering, there was a new change in the situation!
Although the scene was extremely chaotic, the guards were able to suppress the so-called rebellion with ease. After all, the people who created the disturbance did not have any fighting power, so it did not take much effort at all. Grabbing the eunuchs and palace maids one by one, they threw them into the corner and piled them up. If it weren't for the fact that there were so many of them and that the eunuchs and palace maids were not afraid of death and were resisting desperately, the chaos would have been over long ago. However, the situation was gradually coming under control.
Right at this moment, another change occurred …
A bodyguard was pushing a palace maid to the ground. Suddenly, his body paused, and then he suddenly roared to the sky. His eyes suddenly turned blood red, as if he had gone mad. He suddenly turned around.
The bodyguard beside him was his brother of many years. He shouted in panic, "Wang San, what happened to you?"
Wang San's eyes were bloodshot, and he did not say a word. His expression struggled for a moment, and then he suddenly unsheathed his saber with a 'shua' sound. With a loud roar, he cut his best brother in half!
Cries of alarm rang out!
Wang San raised his saber that was dripping with blood and looked at his comrades around him with a ferocious glint in his eyes. Suddenly, he let out a loud roar, and without even bothering to identify himself, he raised his saber and slashed wildly. In the blink of an eye, many people were injured by him!
"Kill him quickly! He has already lost his mind! Kill him without mercy! "Yu ManLou ordered.
In that instant, dozens of steel sabers flashed with white light as they descended. Wang San laughed heartily, not bothering to dodge at all. The saber in his hand slashed out, cleaving another bodyguard in half from head to toe. But at the same time, his body was also turned into meat paste by the flurry of blades!
Everyone gasped for breath, and all of them were extremely surprised. They didn't know why such a bizarre thing would occur.
Amidst the hurried panting, a few more people suddenly started panting heavily. Their eyes gradually became hazy, and finally, like Wang San, they jumped up and mercilessly slashed at their companions with their steel sabers and swords!
This time, when everyone heard their panting, they were on guard. Before these people could do any damage, they were already slashed to the ground.
Slowly, like a plague, the number of guards who were panting harshly increased …
Yu ManLou suddenly circulated all the inner qi in his body, and with his face turning purple, he let out a loud roar. Everyone present trembled as Yu ManLou dove down, using both his hands and legs. With a series of 'peng peng peng peng peng' sounds, all the bodyguards were sent flying by his palms. This force was enough to render them immobile, but it wasn't enough to endanger their lives.
Yu ManLou's face was as calm as still water, and he said to the few Tamago XianTian experts behind him, "For such a large scale confusion to occur, there must be a problem with the water source. Immediately take control of the imperial kitchen. From now on, no one is allowed to eat or drink. At the same time, order all those with inner qi to quickly gather here! You must be quick, including yourselves! Also, gather the imperial physicians of the Imperial Physician Courtyard and see if they have any good methods to deal with this! Go and do it immediately! "
"Yes!" The few of them knew that they couldn't delay any longer, and they quickly left.
"What a powerful method!" Yu ManLou's face turned purple as he raged, "To be able to unknowingly cause so many people to fall for it!"
Yu ManTian stared at Yu ManLou in shock. Even with his intelligence, he still hadn't figured out what was going on. Thus, he asked in a daze, "Big brother, what is going on?"
"What is going on?" Yu ManLou glared at Yu ManLou and said, "If I'm not wrong, everyone in the palace should have already been poisoned by this strange drug. As martial arts practitioners, the bodyguards naturally have the ability to resist it, and thus, the effects of the drug are slower. Thankfully, it started with these palace servants who don't know any martial arts, giving us a buffer time. If not, there would be no Tamago tonight! "
"It's actually so serious!" Yu ManTian exclaimed in shock.
"Are you still doubting me? Look over there!" Yu Manlou roared in a low voice, "That Wang San lost his mind and actually killed his own brother with his own hands! If you and I were to fall into such a mess, would Tamago still exist?! "
Yu ManTian's mouth was wide open, but he couldn't say a word.
Yu ManLou remained calm as he issued out orders one after another. He knew that this was an emergency. The moment there was a slight delay, the situation would become unsalvageable!
He was extremely decisive in handling matters. The moment he discovered this matter, he immediately made the decision to knock out all the bodyguards and gather all the experts in Tamago. This way, it would be easier for them to treat and deal with the matter.
After all the orders were issued, Yu ManLou let out a long sigh of relief. Right now, he could only wait.
Yu ManLou looked at his third brother with a complicated gaze, "Third brother, do you see this? This is the method that others used on Tamago. In your opinion, so what about this method? Is it very open and aboveboard?! This is war, a battle where all means are used! "
"…" Yu ManTian opened his mouth but no words came out. His brain was still in a mess and he hadn't recovered from the shock yet.
"If it was just an outsider, it wouldn't be able to cause such a terrifying effect. There must be a mole in Tamago!" Yu ManLou snorted coldly. The more complicated the situation was, the calmer Yu ManLou became. He then took a few steps and said, "Close the city gates. From now on, no one is allowed to leave!"
The last White Jade expert standing guard at the side accepted the order and left.
At this moment, the palace was completely silent with the smell of blood lingering in the air. Although it was broad daylight, the atmosphere was still extremely eerie.
Outside, the commotion was getting louder and louder. Gradually, the commotion could be heard from all four directions. It was as though the entire Bright Jade City was in chaos. Countless fires and thick black smoke rose from every corner of Bright Jade City. It was as if the end of the world had arrived.
Yu ManLou slowly walked to the window with a gloomy face.
The commotion was getting closer and closer. All of a sudden, a loud explosion could be heard outside the palace.
A yellow-robed commander rushed in with sweat all over his head and knelt on the ground, "Reporting to the emperor, the second prince has suddenly mobilized his troops and is attacking the palace!"
"What?!" Yu ManLou, Yu ManTian, and the Jade Empress exclaimed at the same time!
Just now, Yu ManLou had given the order for all the guards in the palace whose cultivation was below Tamago's Black Jade realm to be tied to the side and await treatment. Right now, there were less than a hundred guards in the palace. Why would there be a mutiny at such a time?
Yu ManLou turned around abruptly with killing intent in his eyes! It was one thing for others to do so, but his own son was actually rebelling against him! Furthermore, it was at such a time?!
Yu ManLou did not say a single word and walked out with large strides.
A figure flashed and the Jade Empress opened her arms to block his path, "Emperor, you know that my son … he might have been drugged and is no longer in a clear state of mind! … "
"He is able to mobilize troops to attack the palace just because he is not in a clear state of mind? Attacking his father? He is truly capable! " Yu ManLou's face was cold, "If not for the fact that he is obsessed with the throne, why would he attack the palace at such a time? Hmph! Not in a clear state of mind? The more he is not in a clear state of mind, the more unforgivable he is! Move aside! "
Seeing that the Jade Empress was still blocking his path, Yu ManLou's face was cold and expressionless. He suddenly slapped the Jade Empress' face and sent her flying 30 feet away. Yu ManLou's footsteps did not stop at all and he continued walking towards the entrance of the palace!
"Big brother, please wait!" Yu ManTian flew over to stop him, "How can you be so careless with such a huge matter? You know that my nephew isn't acting out of character? Don't tell me you want to punish him? "
Yu ManLou's eyes were burning with a frenzied flame as he looked at Yu ManTian and said hoarsely, "Everyone in the world can rebel against me and kill me, but there are only a few people who can't do so! You and second brother can't! My son … can't do it either! "
"But even if you want to punish him, you have to cure the poison first!" Yu ManTian's personality was straightforward and he had already forgotten about his previous unhappiness. He was so anxious that his forehead was covered in sweat, "If it's just like that … just like that …" Suddenly, he was frightened by his own words because the next word was' kill '. Thinking about that, he couldn't help but break out in cold sweat!
That was his big brother's son! (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters. Support the author, support the original reading!)
