In the square of the Imperial Clan Court!
The Empress Dowager!
The purple-clothed woman beside the sword was actually the Empress Dowager of the Great Qin Empire, the nominal mother of the Qin Emperor.
Yu Haoran was shocked when he heard how everyone addressed the purple-clothed woman. He looked at Qin Baijun with a playful look in his eyes.
Zixuan!
Hehe!
Even the Emperor of Qin, who had survived two tribulations, knelt down on one knee and addressed her respectfully as' Mother '.
Qin Baijun, who was only the chief of the Imperial Clan Court and whose status and rank were not as high as Meng Zhengkai, not only did he not kneel to greet her, he even called her by a different name.
Even the blind and deaf would not believe that he did not have a special relationship with the Empress Dowager.
After hearing the gentle call, the purple-clothed woman's gaze shifted from the sword to Qin Baijun's body, and she responded with the same gentle voice.
"Baijun!"
However, when the woman in purple saw the playful look in Yu Haoran's eyes when he looked at Qin Baijun, her gentle expression immediately turned cold.
Following that, two purple rays of light shot out from her eyes. Yu Haoran had no time to dodge, and the Pagoda Genie had no time to block them.
"Puff …!"
Yu Haoran endured the pain of his mind being instantly injured. He did not cry out in pain and spat out three mouthfuls of blood.
He did not bother to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and immediately took a few top healing pills. After quickly stabilizing his mind, he did not hide the strong murderous intent in his eyes.
"Bitch, how dare you attack me!"
Bitch!
After hearing how Yu Haoran addressed the woman in purple, whether it was Emperor Qin, who had just stood up to plead for Yu Haoran, or Meng Zhengkai, who was kneeling on the ground, they all stared at him in shock.
Even Qin Baijun was so shocked that there was a lingering tenderness on his face, as well as a loss of self-control due to the shock.
"You, you, what did you just call me?" The woman in purple, who was also in disbelief, pointed at Yu Haoran and asked as if she had gone mad.
"As the Empress Dowager, you should scrupulously abide by etiquette and rules, guard the harem, and avoid gossip."
"But you shamelessly had an affair with a wild man. Not only did you lose the face of the Imperial Family, but you also lost the dignity of the Imperial Family. Calling you a bitch was too light."
"In my opinion, lewd and slut are more suitable for you!"
As Yu Haoran healed his injured mind with the help of the medicinal pill, he wiped off the remaining blood at the corner of his mouth. Then, regardless of what the truth was, Yu Haoran exposed his shortcomings and insulted him on the spot.
"Yu Haoran, shut up!"
Hearing Yu Haoran's insults, the Qin Emperor appeared in front of Yu Haoran in a flash and reprimanded him with a sullen expression.
However, the three consecutive movements of his forehead made Yu Haoran know that he was trying to protect him.
In this regard, he nodded gratefully. Then, he took a few steps back and sat down cross-legged. While he was healing his wounded mind with the help of the elixir, he secretly informed the second doppelganger he left outside Xianyang City to take the black bear away from Xianyang City as soon as possible.
Because when his mind was severely wounded by the two purple rays from the woman in purple, Thaling revealed a piece of information to him.
The first choice that Thaling gave him was to temporarily give up the opportunity to kill Qin Baijun and choose to escape from the Imperial Clan Court and Xianyang City.
It turned out that the woman in purple, who was called the Empress Dowager, was not only a quasi-Martial Venerable expert who had passed the Body Tribulation and the Soul Tribulation, but also the owner of a sword of the Lower Emperor Realm.
Although it was impossible for the woman in purple to exert the full power of the Lower Emperor Realm sword with her current cultivation and strength, she could barely exert one percent of the sword's power through the connection between her Divine Soul and the Divine Soul of the Sacred Sword.
The terrifying strength of Emperor Wu's realm was clearly demonstrated by Emperor Wu's broken arm and body.
Therefore, even if he gave up the opportunity to kill Qin Baijun now, it would not affect his reputation, nor would it affect his Taoist Heart, nor would it give birth to inner demons.
The only thing he felt guilty about was that he could not fulfill his promise to Qin Lingfei.
"Yishen, stand down!" Seeing Emperor Qin standing in front of Yu Haoran, the woman in purple, who had regained her rationality but was even more furious, ordered Emperor Qin in a hoarse voice.
"Mother, Haoran is still young and impulsive. I apologize to you on his behalf!" In response to the woman in purple's hoarse voice, Emperor Qin put his hands behind his back again and replied indifferently.
"Yishen, do you think you've grown up and don't need me anymore? Are you going to burn the bridge after crossing the river?"
Although he said he was apologizing on behalf of Yu Haoran, Emperor Qin's tone and posture just now showed no sincerity at all. The woman in purple could not help but ask with a sneer.
"Mother Empress, I will never forget the kindness and support you have shown me." In response to the woman in purple's sneer, Emperor Qin put his hands behind his back and bowed gratefully.
"At least you have a conscience!"
In response to Emperor Qin's gratitude, the woman in purple nodded with relief.
Then, her face darkened and she scolded.
"In that case, why don't you get out of the way?"
Withdrawing his hands, Emperor Qin looked up and sneered.
"Mother, although Haoran's insulting attitude just now was too extreme, don't you know whether what he said just now is true or not?"
Unlike Yu Haoran's exposure, the woman in purple was deeply ashamed of Emperor Qin's exposure of the royal family's scandal. Her face turned pale and she took two steps back.
She wanted to explain herself, but when she thought about how she had given Qin Baijun the Sacred Sword Soul, which was the core of a low-grade emperor-level sword, to protect him, and how the two of them couldn't help but call each other names, she finally sighed and pleaded in a helpless tone.
"From now on, I will seal myself in the imperial harem and will not leave without your permission. Can I exchange it for Baijun's life?"
"Mother, I have given you my permission!" The Qin Emperor nodded his head and promised.
After receiving Emperor Qin's promise, the woman in purple reached out and grasped the low-grade emperor-grade sword. She looked at Qin Baijun affectionately and then went straight to the imperial harem.
"Qin Baijun, hear me!"
Emperor Qin secretly breathed a sigh of relief as he watched his mother go straight to the imperial harem.
Then, he ordered Qin Baijun with a serious face.
"Qin Baijun, hear me!"
Although he said that he was accepting the order, Qin Baijun did not kneel to accept the order, nor did he look at the Qin Emperor. His eyes were filled with unwillingness and resentment as he looked at the woman in purple who was heading straight for the imperial palace.
This was not the result he wanted. Not only did he want Yu Haoran's life, but he also wanted to keep his current status and identity.
