In the water dungeon, Hu Sheng was suspended. Her legs were soaked in water, and the prolonged soaking had caused her limbs to become swollen and rotten.
After nearly three years of imprisonment, Hu Sheng had lost track of time and night.
But in the past few days, she was suddenly released. The prison guards even sent her clean food and water.
Hu Sheng knew that these vicious Zao State summoners would not be so kind.
She did not eat or drink.
"If I tell you to eat, just eat. Once the Metropolis Meeting ends, you'll die. Being a full ghost is better than being a hungry ghost." Two jailers walked over, and one of them spat on the ground before walking away while cursing.
So that's how it was. She was finally going to die.
Hu Sheng was numb. She did not look at the food. For her, death might be a relief.
"You should at least eat a little." The one of the two prison guards who had stayed behind suddenly spoke up.
Hu Sheng felt that the other person's voice was strange, but that was not important.
This person was not the jailer who looked after her on a daily basis. It seemed that he was temporarily transferred here.
"Someone will get you out of here," the jailer said in a low voice.
Hu Sheng's body trembled. She suddenly raised her head and looked at the jailer. He was wearing a mask. In the Zao State, many summoners wore masks.
Perhaps it was the concern in his voice that moved Hu Sheng. She asked softly, "Who are you? Are you from the Celestial Fox tribe?"
Hu Sheng regretted it as soon as the words left her mouth.
She was so naive. How could someone from the Celestial Fox tribe come to save her?
Her father had long stopped caring about her. Her timid mother would never be able to find someone to save her.
"I'm sorry that you have suffered these past few years. I was selfish before. I am Yun Sheng's father. "After hesitating for a moment, Yun Canghai still announced his identity.
Ever since that day when he sneaked into the Great Zhou Embassy and left a message for Yun Sheng, Yun Canghai had been paying close attention to the situation in the water dungeon.
In the past few days, one of the jailers in the water dungeon had fallen ill. Yun Canghai found an opportunity to replace him.
He believed that Sheng 'er should have received his message. In another day, the Dutian Conference would begin. At that time, Sheng' er would definitely sneak into the water dungeon. As long as he and his daughter worked together, they would be able to save the woman in the water dungeon.
Yun Sheng's father?
Hu Sheng was surprised. At the same time, her heart felt bitter.
Her own father did not appear when she was in danger. Instead, Yun Sheng's father came to save her.
"It's very dangerous here. Why did you save me? You should also know why I was caught. If I die, Yun Sheng will be safe." Hu Sheng believed that the man in front of her should also know that she was caught as a scapegoat.
He should also know that she would soon be used as a blood sacrifice to strengthen the Dutian blood seal.
Weren't all parents selfish? Could it be that Yun Sheng's father was not afraid that Yun Sheng would be implicated?
"But if Sheng 'er knew that you died in her place, she would feel guilty for the rest of her life. She is a doctor. In her heart, there is no distinction between the noble and the cheap. Your parents should also hope that you can go back. Take these. In a few days, we will be able to get you out. "Yun Canghai sighed. He took out some pills and placed them beside Hu Sheng.
Although his daughter, Hu Sheng, was not a good person, she had a clear distinction between good and evil. Hu Sheng's death would only bring a temporary peace.
"No one will hope for me to go back. Although I look like Yun Sheng, I am not her. I am a good-for-nothing." Hu Sheng shook her head. She hugged her legs and curled up in the cell with her head lowered.
Yun Canghai sighed and left.
On the day of the Dutian Conference, Yun Sheng received an invitation from Penglai Of Gojoseon and the Zao State.
She learned that the Dutian Conference would be held in the Penglai Pavilion.
The representatives of the major countries and forces that had already arrived in Penglai included: the Regent Of Great Zhou, "Ye Beiming", Later Qin Dugu Xiu, the Immortal Residence God Wind King, Tang Yuan Li Cheng, the Vice President of the Hunter's Guild, the Mainland Elite Camp Lan, Donghuang Ling 'er of the Donghuang Dynasty, and Si Ming of the Temple.
Because the Dutian Conference did not allow magical beasts or magical pets to enter, Yun Sheng went to the Penglai Pavilion alone today.
When she arrived at the entrance of the Penglai Pavilion, she happened to meet Tang Yuan and Li Cheng.
"Prince Regent, nice to meet you." Yun Sheng met Tang Yuan's Crown Prince, Li Cheng, head-on. She couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
Li Cheng respected the Regent Of Great Zhou very much. Back then, he was just a Crown Prince that Tang Yuan didn't think highly of. Later on, it was because of Ye Beiming's support that he managed to squeeze out Tang Yuan's Second Prince, Li Shao.
Not to mention, the Second Prince, Li Shao, was later killed in Grand Emperor City. It was said that it was the "Prince Regent" who killed him. It could be said that he had helped Crown Prince Li get rid of a big problem.
But speaking of which, although Li Cheng had formed an alliance with the Regent Of Great Zhou, he had never had the chance to meet "Ye Beiming" in person.
So this time, he naturally had to curry favor with him.
Yun Sheng smiled awkwardly. She didn't want to talk too much with Li Cheng, so as to avoid giving herself away. However, Li Cheng, that brat, didn't know about it at all. He even held onto Yun Sheng's hand with a very intimate look.
"Prince Regent, I have met the Prince Regent's Consort once in the past. I heard that the consort has been infected with a strange illness for the past few years. You seem to have gotten better recently. Do you need me to send Tang Yuan's famous doctor to take a look at the consort?"
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, you're such a busybody. The Prince Regent's medical skills are unparalleled in the world. When did it become the turn of Tang Yuan's quack doctor to take a look at her? "Donghuang Ling 'er walked in and glared at Li Cheng.
Only then did Li Cheng let go of his hand embarrassedly. How could he have forgotten that his mother was cured by the Prince Regent's Consort?
A doctor doesn't cure himself. This saying was probably referring to the situation of the Prince Regent's Consort.
Only then did Yun Sheng let out a breath of relief. She nodded her head at Ling 'er gratefully.
"Sir Regent Of Great Zhou?" Behind her, a suspicious voice sounded, causing Yun Sheng's eyebrows to twitch.
Yun Sheng cursed in her heart. The person standing behind her was the Head of the Law Temple, Si Ming.
Li Cheng and Ye Beiming had never met each other before. Thus, it was still easy for her to beat around the bush. However, Ye Beiming had met the Head of the Law Temple, Si Ming, once before.
This time, she couldn't hide the truth anymore.
Just when Yun Sheng was hesitating about whether she should turn around and meet the Head of the Law Temple …
"Everyone, please enter the Penglai Pavilion. Lord Head of the Law Temple, Rumo has something to discuss with you. Please go to the side and have a chat first. "Ji Rumo walked over at the right time and helped Yun Sheng resolve the crisis.
After Ji Rumo left, Donghuang Ling 'er was still a little surprised. She tugged at Yun Sheng and said, "Penglai Of Gojoseon seemed to be helping you. Did the two of you know each other?" "I don't know him.
However, he gives me a familiar feeling. Let's not talk about it anymore. Let's go in first. After a while, we'll act according to the situation and think of a way to find out more about Hu Sheng. "Yun Sheng shook her head. She also felt that Penglai Of Gojoseon was helping her just now. Who exactly was he?
