Shi Sheng didn't know that Lu Ruo and the System had figured out that she had a space.
She pinched Xiao He's chin and asked her with a smile, "Say it again. Who ordered you to do this?
It was me. "
Xiao He was in so much pain that she almost lost consciousness. Now that Shi Sheng was pinching her, her face was red and she had difficulty breathing.
Her vision blurred. The woman pinching her smiled brightly. Xiao He's sorry figure was reflected in the woman's calm eyes.
Meeting her gaze, Xiao He felt as if she was standing on the edge of a cliff and there was a bottomless abyss behind her. She would fall down if she wasn't careful.
She was surrounded by imperial guards, but she turned a blind eye to them. She didn't care whether they would rush up and give her a fatal blow.
Wasn't she afraid of death?
Xiao He had this question in her mind.
But soon, she didn't have time to think about it. She opened her mouth like a fish out of water and breathed with difficulty.
The oxygen in her chest was getting less and less.
"Don't worry. If you die, I'll send your brother down to accompany you." Shi Sheng leaned closer to Xiao He and said viciously.
"No … no." She only had one family member. She couldn't let her brother die.
But why did everyone threaten her with her brother?
She just wanted to live a good life. Why was it so difficult?
"Because this is your weakness." Shi Sheng loosened his grip to let Xiao He breathe. "That's why they can easily control your fate."
"You …" Weren't you the same?
"It's not the same." Shi Sheng's eyes curved. "I have nothing to fear. I'm not afraid of death. I'm not afraid of them."
But your family …
"I don't care about them." Shi Sheng seemed to know what Xiao He was thinking.
She didn't care about them.
So their life and death had nothing to do with her.
"Will you … save my brother?" Xiao He squeezed out a few words.
"No."
Xiao He's eyes were filled with despair.
"Because he's already dead." Shi Sheng made up a random story.
Xiao He's eyes widened. "You're lying … how did you know?"
"I'm from the Zhuang family."
Xiao He's face lost its last bit of color.
"Do you want revenge?" Shi Sheng chuckled. He was like a demon that had crawled out of hell, tempting people who were walking on the boundary between the black and white and making them fall into darkness. "If you want revenge, tell me who ordered you to do this."
Xiao He gasped for breath very quickly. She turned her head with difficulty to look at Consort Shu.
"Your Majesty, Yun Jie Yu's disrespect is tantamount to treason. What are you waiting for?" Consort Shu angrily shouted.
Shi Sheng's arrogant and condescending attitude had indeed infuriated Yuwen Xun. "Arrest her."
The imperial guards heard the news and moved into action. Shi Sheng took out a strange stone from her space and pinched it lightly, causing an invisible airflow to spread out.
The Iron Sword was not by his side. Only an idiot would fight them with his broken body.
The Imperial Guards who rushed forward crashed into the transparent barrier and were knocked dizzy.
The group of people scratched their heads in confusion. They stretched out their hands to touch the area in front of them, but there was no obstruction.
However, when they continued to charge in, it was the same as before. They couldn't charge in no matter what.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
What was that?
"Monster …" someone shouted. "There's a monster!"
In this purely ancient world, monsters were definitely very frightening.
They believed in gods and were afraid of demons and ghosts.
The Imperial Guards scrambled back, looking at Shi Sheng in horror.
It was as if Shi Sheng was not a beautiful girl, but a monster with a green face and fangs, with three heads and six arms.
Shi Sheng rolled his eyes. Monster my ass!
Was there a monster that looked as good as her?
"Sir Ming, come here." Someone waved at Ming Jin.
This Yun Jie Yu was too strange.
Ming Jin looked Shi Sheng up and down, his gentle gaze landing on her hand.
He saw her take something, but it was too small. She held it completely in her hand, so he couldn't see what it was.
"What are you looking at?" Shi Sheng felt like he was being sized up by a sophisticated instrument, so he glared fiercely at her.
Ming Jin blinked, then spread his sleeves and said with a smile, "You're going to strangle her to death."
Shi Sheng looked down. He hadn't noticed just now and had used too much strength. Xiao He's face was already blue, and it looked like she would die at any moment.
No one could enter, so Shi Sheng released Xiao He.
Xiao He panted quickly, and only calmed down when she had enough oxygen in her chest.
Perhaps because she had just walked on the brink of death, Xiao He didn't show any fear at the word 'monster'. Instead, she glared fiercely at Consort Shu.
"It's Consort Shu." Xiao He gritted her teeth and said, "Consort Shu planned all of this. This servant is telling the truth this time. If I lie, may the heavens strike me with five bolts of lightning."
Shi Sheng looked at Consort Shu.
However, the people on the other side had long been scared witless by Monster Sheng. No one was paying attention to what they were talking about.
As a top student who had undergone scientific education, Lu Ruo really wanted to say that it was impossible for there to be a monster. However, when she thought about her current situation, she swallowed her words.
Even transmigration had happened, so monsters and whatnot seemed to be normal.
"I say …" Shi Sheng raised his chin.
"Monster, don't come any closer!" De-gonggong stood in front of Yuwen Xun, his expression saying, "If you dare come any closer, I'll fight you to the death."
Shi Sheng: "…"
Where's I's sword?
Yuwen Xun had been sizing up Shi Sheng. He didn't look very afraid, but his gaze wasn't very good.
My … God!
What kind of evil idea was this male lead up to now?
"Consort Shu." Shi Sheng looked at Consort Shu.
Consort Shu trembled. She grabbed Yuwen Xun's sleeve and tried to shrink back.
"It wasn't me … Don't look for me …" Consort Shu's face was deathly pale. Her eyes were filled with fear as she shook her head and muttered.
"How dare you quibble!" Shi Sheng raised his eyebrows. "Your servant girl has already confessed."
"No, it … it wasn't me … She, she, she … She's spouting nonsense." Consort Shu's voice was trembling so much that it was almost out of tune.
"You're saying that I've wronged you?" Shi Sheng's expression turned serious.
Consort Shu grabbed Yuwen Xun's sleeve. "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, she's a monster. She's a monster. Hurry up and kill her."
"How dare you call this great immortal a monster? Have you eaten a bear's heart or a leopard's gall?" Shi Sheng shouted without warning.
[…] The host was going to start acting cool again.
Consort Shu was so frightened by Shi Sheng's shout that she trembled. Liquid actually flowed out from under her gorgeous clothes, and an unpleasant smell spread through the air.
"Go get Master Xukong," Yuwen Xun calmly instructed De-gonggong.
De-gonggong was actually a little scared. Monsters and whatnot were rumored to eat humans.
He carefully moved outside. Seeing that Shi Sheng had no intention of stopping him, he ran out of the main hall as fast as he could.
De-gonggong's entire body went limp after he left the main hall.
There's a monster. There's a monster.
Look for Master Xukong.
Master Xukong …
De-gonggong looked left and right for a while, determined the direction, and then dashed out at the speed of a 100-meter sprint.
The imperial family would more or less keep a few Daoist priests, just in case there really were supernatural things.
This Master Xukong was obviously raised by the imperial family.
