The three continents below the Nine Heavens each had their own rules and protectors. The Upper God Continent had the Venerable Emperor and the Divine Lord, the Xuantian Continent had the Four Emperors and the protectors of the four major sects. Although the human continent was the weakest of the three, due to the rules of the Heavenly Dao, cultivators from other continents could not use their full strength here. Moreover, the human continent had the protection of the Emperor and the Chosen Son of Heaven had the purple aura that no demon could harm.
If the human continent was in chaos, unless the Emperor of Purple Aura did not exist, then the balance of the world would be lost and the people would be restless. Thousands of years ago, the great demon ruled the human continent because there were too many wars at that time. The true Chosen Son of Heaven died, giving the great demon the opportunity to conquer the world in chaos.
If Mo Rongzhan and the others were still doubting whether the great demon had appeared in the human continent before, they were now certain of it after seeing the assassin's transformation.
The great demon had indeed appeared and had begun to carry out his plot.
Mo Rongzhan cleaned up the assassin's black bones and burned all the insects. After confirming there were no survivors, he left the house.
He and Ye Zhen went to the mountains near Chengde Mountain Villa and saw the scene Ming Xi mentioned in his letter. Just like Shang 'er, there was a great demon cultivating a blood elixir and it had most likely succeeded. There were no new beast bones in the valley and they seemed to have been there for some time.
"Ah Zhan …" Ye Zhen stared blankly at the scene in front of her. With the death of the assassin before her, she thought she could face it calmly. But looking at the bones of the beasts scattered all over the valley, she dared not imagine what a great demonic beast looked like.
"The great demon has appeared," Mo Rongzhan whispered.
Ye Zhen's jade-like face looked very pale under the scattered sunlight. "The great demon wants to kill Ming Yu?"
"Ming Yu has a strong purple aura. She is the future ruler of the world. If she dies, the world will be in chaos until another ruler appears," Mo Rongzhan said to Ye Zhen.
"Can we kill the great demon?" Ye Zhen closed her eyes and took a deep breath. No matter who it was, as long as they wanted to harm her child, she would never allow it.
Mo Rongzhan looked at Ye Zhen. He had lived for hundreds of years and experienced countless trials and battles. Every time, he was full of confidence and had the confidence to win. But this time, he was still uncertain.
He would definitely protect Ming Yu, but he might not be able to protect the world.
If even the Exalted Gods did not care, how could he avoid the Heavenly Dao's restriction?
"We will definitely be able to protect Mingyu." Mo Rongzhan said in a low voice.
"How do I find the big monster? No, how many people will he turn into blood demons?" Ye Zhen was still scared when she thought of the blood worms.
Mo Rongzhan said, "I don't know either. He definitely won't dare to appear in public now. I'll think of a way to send the news of the big demonic beast's appearance in the human world back to the Upper God Continent. If the Upper God knows, he'll definitely come to deal with the big demonic beast."
This was the only way.
"Didn't you say that the Exalted Goddess went missing?" Ye Zhen asked curiously.
"Maybe he's already back," Mo Rongzhan said.
Ye Zhen felt a heavy and uncomfortable pressure in her heart. She thought that after returning to the human world, she could restore her previous peaceful life. She did not expect to face a greater conspiracy.
Moreover, she had a feeling that this had a lot to do with them opening the gap.
Great Demonic Beast …
What was it like? How many great demon beasts were there in the human world?
…
…
The two assassins were dead. Shen Yi entered the palace and told Murong Ke about the incident. He also explained the scene after the assassins' death in detail.
"Your Majesty, the assassins only said the three words' Hall Leader Wei 'before they died. They didn't ask anything else," Shen Yi said.
Murong Ke's face was gloomy. He had been bitten by Gu worms. If it weren't for Yao Yao, he would have died long ago. Therefore, he was very clear about how quickly and painfully people controlled by Gu worms would die.
The priest hall had long been burned down and Qi Ruoshui was also gone. Who else could control Gu worms?
"Hall Leader Wei?" Murong Ke's eyes were sharp. "Since we don't know who it is, then investigate everyone! No matter which sect it is, even if it's insignificant, we have to investigate! "
This was the best solution!
Shen Yi accepted the order and left.
Murong Ke walked alone to the long corridor outside the Palace of Heavenly Purity. He looked at the bright sky outside and fell into deep thought.
He had already asked the hidden guards to investigate all the officials of the imperial court. None of them were suspicious. If they were not suspicious, then they would be the most suspicious. He didn't know who wanted to hurt Ming Yu. Could it be that his love for Ming Yu had become her burden?
Those people just didn't want him to return the throne to Ming Yu. The most suspicious ones were still the women in the palace.
He was a dignified emperor, but even his beloved daughter had to be threatened. This emperor was too useless!
Since he couldn't find out who wanted to hurt Ming Yu, he would lure this person out.
"Fu De!" A cold light flashed in Murong Ke's dark eyes and he said coldly.
Fu De, who had been following from afar, heard Murong Ke calling him. He hurried forward and said, "Your servant is here."
"Go to Jianjia Palace and tell Lei Huipin to accompany me to Hu Guo Temple tomorrow to pray for the innocent people who were burned to death." Murong Ke said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Surprise flashed in Fu De's eyes. The emperor had given Lei Huipin the cold for a few days. He actually remembered her again.
As Murong Ke's personal eunuch, Fu De could be considered to be quick-witted and eye-catching, not to mention that he had served two emperors. He could more or less guess what Murong Ke was thinking, but he could not see what the Emperor was thinking about Lei Huipin.
He knew that Murong Ke had once been in love with Princess Qin. He was so devoted to her that he didn't even care about his life. Otherwise, he wouldn't have kept Princess Qin's hairpin close to him for so many years. So, when Murong Ke was willing to take a concubine, he was really happy for Murong Ke. He thought that he had forgotten Princess Qin. But now, it seemed that … he was still infatuated with her.
He just didn't know what the emperor thought about Lei Huipin.
In his opinion, Lei Huipin was actually quite good.
Fu De came to Jianjia Palace while thinking. He saw Lei Huipin leisurely basking in the sun in the courtyard.
It seemed that this concubine had been happy and content since she entered the palace. It was as if she had lived in the palace for a long time. She could always find the most comfortable way to live her life. Even when the emperor came, she didn't panic at all.
"Why is Eunuch Fu here?" Ding Xiang was very happy to see Fu De. Fu De's appearance meant that the emperor was thinking of her concubine again.
"Miss Ding Xiang." Fu De nodded with a smile. He had seen countless people and always felt that Lei Huipin would have a greater fortune in the future. So, he never put on airs in front of Lei Huipin. "This servant greets Your Majesty."
Lei Bingfu's eyes twitched. "Eunuch Fu, you may dispense with the formalities."
