"Sister Lin, it's you! Didn't I tell you to watch the seclusion area and not leave? "Queen Dong's face darkened when she saw the middle-aged woman.
"Reporting to Young Miss, there is news from Master." The woman did not reveal a surprised expression when she heard this. Instead, she lowered her head and replied.
She then took out a golden shell from her sleeve and walked over, handing it over with both hands.
"My father has sent news at this time, this is a bit strange. Did something happen in the clan? "Empress Dowager Dong was somewhat surprised. She raised her hand to receive the golden shell and gently pressed it against her forehead.
After a short while, Empress Dong's face turned ashen. After moving the shell away, she immediately cursed in a low voice:
"That thief Wei Yu dared to steal the First Yuan Heavy Water from the treasury. If he's really dead, then I'll let him off lightly. Otherwise, I'll skin him alive. "
"What, Wei Lan is dead? When did this happen? "The smile on the middle-aged woman's face disappeared.
"It happened last night. Two human cultivators barged into the palace and saw Xuan Zhi's transformation, but they managed to escape. Thus, I sent Wei Yu and Xuan Zhi to chase after them. However, they haven't returned yet, so they must have met with an accident. "Queen Dong said hatefully.
"If that's the case, then the First Yuan Heavy Water is most likely in the hands of the human cultivators. If that's the case, then things will be troublesome. If Miss is unable to retrieve the treasure, even if you complete the mission in Xuanjing, you will still be reprimanded by the master. "The woman sighed.
"Of course I know how important the First Yuan Heavy Water is to my father. However, what has happened has already happened. Unless we catch the two intruders, there is nothing I can do. However, I still have to manage the situation in Xuanjing and have no time to spare. After all, if I can't retrieve the First Yuan Heavy Water, I'll only be reprimanded by my father. However, if I mess up the situation in Xuanjing, I'm afraid I'll have to stay in the Black Chilling Abyss for ten years. "Queen Dong said helplessly.
"If that's the case, why don't Miss leave this matter to me. I have a treasure that the master gave me years ago. Within a certain distance, I can sense the First Yuan Heavy Water. If I walk around Xuanjing more, I might be able to find some clues. "The woman hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"Oh, if that's the case, it's not a bad idea. But … "Hearing this, Empress Dong looked hesitant. Just as she was about to say something, the sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside the hall. It was the huge man who had left earlier, striding back into the hall.
Queen Dong frowned, stopped talking, and looked over.
"Miss, bad news. I've just received news that there are people outside of Xuanjing who are spreading half true and half false news. They say that the Sea Race has appeared in the palace and that the current Emperor has already been killed and is now transformed by a monster. They also said that our Sea Race is in cahoots with some monsters and is plotting against the human race in Xuanjing. They are preparing to kill all loose cultivators. "The giant walked in and immediately spoke with a shocked expression.
"What? There's such a thing? Did you find out where this rumor came from? "Hearing this, Empress Dong's expression immediately changed.
On the side, Xuan Zhi's face became incomparably pale in an instant.
"I've checked, the news came from a small loose cultivator organization that specializes in selling information." The giant hurriedly replied.
"Miss, let me go and uproot this organization." Hearing this, the middle aged woman said seriously.
"Sister Lin, it's too late. This small organization has already sold this news to seven or eight other organizations. I believe that it won't be long before all the human factions in Xuanjing hear this news. "The giant laughed bitterly.
"Needless to say, this is definitely the doing of the two people who broke into the palace. They sure are big. Sister Lin, when will the human cultivators who are in seclusion finish cultivating the technique that I gave them? "At this time, Empress Dong actually calmed down.
"Reporting to Miss, according to the plan, it will take another two months. However, if we don't mind using pills and even overdraft their lifespan, we can reduce the time by half. "Sister Lin heard this and quickly replied.
"If that's the case, then go ahead and do it. Anyways, if this doesn't work out, then there's no point in keeping these people. Ju Zhu, bring a few people to the palace where the Gold Spirit Guests are and capture Qiu Longzi for me. If he isn't willing to submit, then kill him. Then, before the news reaches the palace, take over all the Gold Spirit Guests in the palace and use the Immortal Fall to knock all of these human cultivators to the ground. Then, place restrictions on all of them. "Dong Tai's face became stern as he spoke.
Hearing this, the middle aged woman naturally agreed.
However, the giant first shivered before immediately revealing his killing intent.
"It's too troublesome to plant a restriction. Why don't I just kill all these Gold Spirit Guests? "
"No need. I have a use for these human cultivators, they must be alive. "Empress Dong shook her head.
"This lowly one understands." The huge man was somewhat enlightened.
"Zhi Er, immediately give the order for all the important officials in Xuanjing to enter the palace. Also, tell them that those who don't come will be punished with the crime of rebellion." Empress Dong turned her head and ordered the stunned Xuan Zhi.
"Mother, could it be that you're going to make a move now?" The Da Xuan Kingdom's Emperor finally regained his senses and asked with a quivering voice.
"Originally, I wanted to wait another two months, but now I have no choice but to act earlier. However, that's not a problem, we've already prepared for this day. The entire underground of Xuanjing is covered with our Sea Race's famous Four Seas Overturning Sky Formation. Once it is activated, if one doesn't know how to break the formation, even a Spirit Master would not be able to easily enter. Furthermore, this formation is effective both inside and outside of Xuanjing and can even cut off all communication and secret techniques. If we're lucky, the two intruders aren't the supervising envoys of the Barbarian Ghost and Heavenly Moon Sects like we guessed. Perhaps before the news spreads outside of Xuanjing, we can control everything within Xuanjing. Once the five sects hear of the changes in Xuanjing, they can investigate and we can delay this period of time. As long as we wait for the main race to act, the five sects won't have time to care about this side. "Empress Dong said slowly.
"I understand. I'll give the order now! " As the ruler of a country, Xuan Zhi was naturally not a normal person. Hearing this, he made up his mind and agreed without any hesitation.
"Very good. You finally understand that you are a member of the Sea Race and not these lowly humans. As long as you call the officials into the palace, I will immediately activate the formation and the inner formation to completely separate the palace from the rest of Xuanjing. With the strength of the loose cultivators in Xuanjing, wanting to break through this formation is just a delusion. Alright, let's move. "Empress Dong first gave a word of praise before giving a gloomy order.
The large man and the others naturally agreed and the Sea Race went their separate ways.
However, after half a day, all of the powers in Xuanjing began to panic due to a piece of news. While all kinds of undercurrents were surging, the entire ground of Xuanjing suddenly shook. Following that, numerous small inscriptions appeared out of nowhere from every corner of the streets. Following that, Zong Yin disappeared in a flash.
Following that, the entire earth rumbled, and light blue pillars of light, each as thick as a water tank, shot up from the ground, disappearing into the clouds beyond the Ninth Heaven.
Such a shocking scene naturally caused the citizens of Xuanjing and the loose cultivators to all stare in shock.
At the same time, in the center of the palace, around a jade platform that was originally used for sacrifices, gathered a dense crowd of palace guards. There were more than two hundred of them, each holding a colorful formation flag in their hands. They were lined up in four groups, stepping on a square formation.
On the jade platform, Empress Dong had changed into a light blue palace dress and was kneeling there.
Her facial features were still the same, but she looked much younger than before. Impressively, she looked like a very young woman. Furthermore, she was holding a dark blue copper mirror with both hands, her expression serious as she chanted some sort of technique.
She suddenly flipped the copper mirror in her hand into the air. Immediately, with a "weng weng" sound, the copper mirror spat out a light blue glyph.
At first, it was only the size of an inch, but as Empress Dong madly urged the copper mirror, it grew to the size of a washbasin in the blink of an eye and flew into space.
However, when the glyph was thirty to forty feet above the ground, it slowly stopped. No matter how much Empress Dong urged the treasure in her hand, it only trembled slightly.
"Do it!"
Seeing this, Empress Dong clenched her teeth and commanded loudly.
Following that, the woman's body glowed with blue light. As her hair danced in the wind, the true appearance of a Sea Race person that was even more beautiful than before appeared.
The two hundred palace guards near the jade platform also glowed with light, transforming into a half-human, half-fish appearance.
Damn it, they were all transformed from Sea Race people. Moreover, as soon as they revealed their true forms, they began to madly wave the formation flags in their hands while chanting strange syllables.
Immediately, the four formations shone brightly and countless beautiful glyphs appeared on the ground. At the same time, strands of five colored light surged out of the formation flags and entered the copper mirror in Empress Dong's hand.
In the blink of an eye, the copper mirror became blinding.
Queen Dong abruptly opened her mouth, and a ball of essence blood turned into a bloody mist that entered the copper mirror. She then activated the Fa Li in her body, and the huge glyph at a low altitude shot up into the sky, finally disappearing in the sky with a flash.
In the next moment, there was a clap of thunder in the sky. Black clouds rolled and silver snakes danced. At the same time, a suffocating ripple of a restriction spread out in all directions of Xuanjing with the palace as the center.
