Looking at the Mindful Heart Great Emperor's shocked and confused eyes, Zi Jun lowered his head and said slowly, "Great Emperor, don't blame me. I had no choice!"
As she spoke, she took out a dagger.
It was a gloomy and cryptic dagger that was filled with intense soul fluctuations.
"What … what are you going to do to me?"
However, to Zi Jun's surprise, Emperor Mingxin, who was supposed to be unable to speak, suddenly spoke.
The flames on his body were slowly extinguished.
"What happened?" Zi Jun was surprised.
What she had put in the wine was not a deadly poison.
No one would dare to kill the descendant of the Time Master.
That kind of poison would only paralyze Emperor Mingxin, rendering him unable to move.
"Why did you betray me?" Emperor Mingxin stood up, his heart aching.
He could ignore the betrayal of Wen Jiu and the other two.
But Zi Jun was the sister of the Empress, a relative whom he regarded as his confidant.
Why would she betray him?
Zi Jun's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. She stepped forward and stabbed the dagger.
The poison in Emperor Mingxin's body had not been completely removed, so he could not avoid it.
"Time Freeze!" Emperor Mingxin's eyes were red as he shouted, "Put down the Empress!"
Time fluctuations radiated out immediately.
But Zi Jun was obviously prepared for this. She crushed a jade pendant.
A wave of time acceleration was released from it, counteracting the effect of time freeze.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zi Jun carried the Empress and ran away.
But halfway through, a light laugh was suddenly heard.
"No wonder Mister Su said that something would happen in the next few days. I didn't expect you to betray Emperor Mingxin. What a surprise!" Fei Yunsheng was really impressed by Su Yu.
He could foresee everything in the world.
He did not see that the girl named Zi Jun was a traitor.
But Su Yu not only saw it, but also guessed that this woman must have been up to no good.
As expected!
Zi Jun's face turned pale, but she was still calm. She opened her mouth and shouted, "Go!"
A wave of space fluctuations exploded from her chest, instantly swallowing her and the Empress.
Fei Yunsheng did not chase after them, but smiled lightly, "I feel that even your escape using the power of space might have been within Mister Su's expectations."
Zi Jun ran away.
With a space teleportation, she escaped outside Dongming City.
There was a pile of rubble.
Zi Jun waved his sleeves and swept away the rubble. Only then could he see that there was a teleportation array that had been prepared for many years.
He only needed to teleport away from the Mindful Emperor's pursuit.
She threw out a few Time Crystals and successfully activated them.
Xiao Chen looked around at the empty wilderness. After making sure that there was no one around, he heaved a sigh of relief and jumped up.
A white light flashed, and he was teleported away without a hitch.
She took a deep look at Dongming City and sighed, "Don't hate me."
Then, with a flash of white light, he entered a long-distance teleportation.
Ding!
A soft sound rang out. This was the sound of the teleportation ending.
So fast?
Zi Jun was puzzled.
This was a long-distance teleportation, which should take at least two hours.
Why did he arrive in such a short time?
She opened her eyes and found herself in a familiar courtyard.
This was the place where he had lived for many years. How could he not know?
"Great Emperor's Palace?" Zi Jun exclaimed in disbelief.
The other end of the Teleportation Formation was clearly connected to the extremely distant Ximing City.
How could he have returned to the Great Emperor's Palace?
Suddenly, from the corner of Zi Jun's eyes, he saw a white figure leaning against the rockery with a faint smile on his face.
"Su … Su Yu?" Zi Jun's heart skipped a beat.
Su Yu stood up and said, "Miss Zi Jun, where are you going?"
Zi Jun stared at Su Yu and coldly said, "What did you do?"
Su Yu shrugged. "I didn't do anything. I just slightly changed the destination of the transportation portal under the pile of rubble before you arrived."
Su Yu had suspected Zi Jun's identity a long time ago.
He had arrived at the peak two days ago, so he had been paying attention to Zi Jun's actions.
He had also seen her going to the rubble to check if the teleportation array was working properly.
In passing, he had made some slight changes to the formation.
"You bastard!" Zi Jun angrily shouted and slapped him.
Her cultivation was not weak, but it was still a little weaker than Su Yu's.
Su Yu did not dodge. He calmly said, "Two days ago, I should have warned you. If you offend me again, I won't just give you a slap!"
Pow!
A gust of space energy suddenly exploded in front of Zi Jun.
Zi Jun was careless and was blown away. His chest was badly mutilated.
The Empress, who was on his shoulder, rolled down. She was not injured.
Zi Jun's face was full of pain. "Su Yu, you don't know anything. You don't understand how terrifying the Waning Moon Empress is. Anyone who goes against her will die!"
"Oh, is that the reason for your betrayal?" Su Yu shook his head disappointedly. "I thought it was some kind of helpless reason. It turns out that it was just this."
He had thought about the reason for Zi Jun's betrayal. Could it be that the Empress had something on him?
Now it seemed that it was not the case.
"So, you don't understand the Waning Moon Empress at all!" Zi Jun shouted angrily.
Su Yu calmly said, "I should know her better than you do. For example, if I let you go, you will not live to see tomorrow."
Zi Jun looked incredulous.
Su Yu was going to let him go?
However, Su Yu walked forward, helped the Empress up, and left.
He had no intention of paying attention to Zi Jun.
Zi Jun was stunned. "Are you really going to let me go?"
At that moment, the patrolling guards in the yard noticed the commotion and ran over.
Zi Jun clenched her teeth and ran away immediately.
She left in the middle of the night, heading straight for Ximing City.
In the Mindful Emperor's bedroom, Su Yu returned the Empress to the Mindful Emperor.
After making sure that she was fine, the Mindful Emperor's face finally showed a look of relief.
However, his face was still filled with deep sorrow.
Unknowingly, he had fallen to the point where he was deserted by everyone. Even his most trusted confidant had secretly betrayed him.
Su Yu patted the Mindful Emperor's shoulder.
A trace of the Space Domain was retracted without anyone noticing.
It was the Space Domain that Su Yu had secretly placed on top of the Mindful Emperor. Its purpose was to dissolve the poison in the Mindful Emperor's body.
This was also the reason why the Mindful Emperor was able to recover so quickly even though he was clearly poisoned.
"It's a good thing that she was exposed. If we wait until later, it will be a bigger disaster," Su Yu said.
The Mindful Emperor clenched his fists. "I just can't accept it. The Waning Moon Empress is too arrogant. She even planted a spy among my confidants."
Su Yu smiled and said profoundly, "Great, I'm going to meet the Waning Moon Empress. Take care, Great Emperor."
Eh?
The Mindful Emperor lifted his eyes to look at Su Yu. His pupils shrank.
Su Yu's body was slowly dissipating.
