Black Chu Country.
The emperor of Black Chu Country brought Hou Qing to the depths of the Imperial Palace. In that courtyard, the old man who did not know what was going on thought that the emperor of Black Chu Country had invited the cultivator back. After being notified by his eunuch, he immediately dressed up and came out to greet them.
At this moment, he didn't look as old as when Black Chu Country's emperor saw him.
"He really is pretending, pretending that his time is coming to an end …" Black Chu Country's emperor was furious, and his eyes flashed with hostility.
"Senior is the one from Huangshi Village …" The old man cupped his fist and said to Hou Qing.
"Hou Qing."
Hou Qing said lightly.
"Oh, Senior Hou!"
The old man said.
"He told me that you are cultivating a demonic technique and that you feed on human blood?"
Hou Qing glanced at Black Chu Country's emperor and smiled.
The old man was stunned.
This was Black Chu Country's biggest secret. As long as he didn't tell the emperor, this secret couldn't be known.
But if other cultivators were to find out about it, they would definitely be treated as evil and would be slain! Thinking of this, his mind trembled and he subconsciously looked at Black Chu Country's emperor. "You … Father, I really can't stand what you have done all these years."
Black Chu Country's emperor shook his head slightly. "Countless innocent people died in your hands. Countless families in Black Chu Country have been destroyed. If this continues, the foundation of Black Chu Country will be shaken. Father, it's better to repent."
The old man had been in power for so many years, so he immediately understood why his son had betrayed him.
A bitter smile appeared on his face. "You've really learned some of my teachings, but you've used them in the wrong place. This is the true foundation of our Black Chu Country. You're afraid that I'll obtain the cultivation technique, extend my lifespan, and continue to sit on the throne while you lose your monstrous power?
You are wrong. If I can really cultivate like an ordinary cultivator, I won't sit on the throne even if you give it to me! "
"Father, I have never been greedy for power."
Black Chu Country's emperor's expression slightly changed and then he shook his head.
"Senior, I do feed on human blood, but that is because of my cultivation technique. I have no choice.
Since my son doesn't like what I have done, it proves that he can be a benevolent emperor.
Senior, please take action and get rid of this scourge. Give those innocent people an explanation and let the Black Chu Country's royal family completely cut off this evil debt! "
The old man spoke slowly. There was no fear of death on his face.
The Black Chu Emperor was a little shocked. In his mind, he thought about how many ways his father would deal with this, but he never thought that his father would not even be willing to resist and directly seek a quick death. This was something he did not expect.
"You father and son really have a lot of drama. You betrayed your father for the sake of righteousness. You're not a good person.
You're obviously afraid of death, but you don't seem afraid at all. You want me to think that you're truly repentant, so I'll spare your life. "
Hou Qing smiled and shook his head. With a backhand slap, he killed the old man in front of him. Then, he killed the Black Chu Emperor with another slap.
Before the Black Chu Emperor died, he didn't expect that the other party would directly attack him! The surrounding eunuchs were basically Dragon Guards. When they saw this scene, their eyes were filled with fear, and they did not dare to move at all.
"You've also eaten quite a lot of blood and flesh. Let's go together. After all, one of them is the retired emperor, and the other is the current emperor. It's not good to go alone."
Hou Qing smiled.
Not long after, he left the Black Chu Nation's imperial palace.
After a few more hours, the news of the death of the emperor and the retired emperor, as well as the death of all the eunuchs around them, instantly spread.
Some people wanted to block the news, but how could they block it?
There were spies everywhere in the palace. Before long, all the civil and military officials hurried from their homes to the imperial palace.
A graceful and luxurious woman was sitting on the original dragon throne. She was the Black Chu Nation's current empress.
"Why didn't you stay at home? Entering the palace at this time is against the rules."
The empress looked at the civil and military officials below the stage and said lightly.
Her voice was very calm, but some people still found a trace of clues in this trace of calmness.
She was very flustered, and she was afraid! "Empress, I heard that the emperor and the retired emperor, he …" An old official said slowly.
"What did you hear?
How can you hear about the things in the palace? "
The empress looked at the old official, and her voice became extremely stern.
The old official stammered for a long time, but finally lowered his head and closed his mouth.
When the others saw this, they glanced at each other and exchanged glances. Their expressions were extremely solemn.
At this moment, a eunuch suddenly announced from outside, "The Heavenly Plan Prefecture's Prefecture Lord has arrived!"
Heavenly Plan Prefecture?
All the civil and military officials had a slight change in expression.
The empress revealed a look of pleasant surprise, and her sitting posture obviously relaxed a little.
Everyone knew that the Black Chu Nation had the Hidden and Visible Sects. The Hidden Sect protected the emperor in secret, while the Visible Sect controlled many connections in the Black Chu Nation and had great power.
The Heavenly Plan Prefecture's Prefecture Lord was the Hidden Sect's Sect Master! Everyone looked outside the hall and saw a middle-aged man holding a five-year-old girl's hand as they slowly walked into the hall.
"Everyone's here."
The Heavenly Plan Prefecture's Prefecture Lord glanced at everyone and smiled faintly.
Then, he cupped his fists at the empress and said, "This commoner pays his respects to the empress."
"Since you are a commoner, why don't you kneel?"
A general-looking existence said indifferently.
"The Heavenly Plan Prefecture's Prefecture Lord does not kneel in front of the emperor."
The empress snorted and looked at the general. "General Ox, are you questioning the rules left by our ancestors?"
"This subject doesn't dare!"
General Ox's expression changed slightly. He cupped his fists and didn't speak anymore.
"Since the Heavenly Plan Prefecture's Prefecture Lord is here, I have something to tell you. His Majesty and the Grand Imperial Sire were indeed killed by a cultivator."
As the empress spoke, her gaze swept across all the civil and military officials' faces. She saw shock, anger, disbelief, and expressionless faces.
"In our Black Chu Nation, there are many people with methods that are beyond your imagination. Everyone, don't think about taking revenge for His Majesty and the Grand Imperial Sire. If this matter is not resolved properly, Black Chu Nation will be destroyed."
The Heavenly Plan Prefecture's Prefecture Lord said indifferently.
Someone had already sensed that something was wrong.
Why were the Heavenly Plan Prefecture's Prefecture Lord and the empress so calm?
"What cultivator?
What are you talking about?
His Majesty was really killed by an assassin?
This is the imperial palace! What kind of assassin can kill His Majesty and the Grand Imperial Sire in the imperial palace? "
An old official said angrily.
"There are some things you don't know, but I intend to let you know in the future."
The Heavenly Plan Prefecture's Prefecture Lord said indifferently, "Now isn't the time to talk about these things. If Black Chu Nation doesn't want to be destroyed, it needs to elect a ruler immediately.
I will personally make a trip to Huangshi Village and invite the Han Emperor back to ascend the throne. Does anyone have any objections? "
"The Han Emperor?
No! How can you let a traitor ascend the throne? What are you trying to do?! "
General Ox said angrily.
However, a cold glint flashed in the next moment.
General Ox's head fell from his neck and fell to the ground.
The attacker was the young girl beside the Heavenly Plan Prefecture's Prefecture Lord! The hall immediately became deathly silent.
"Now, does anyone have any objections?"
The Heavenly Plan Prefecture's Prefecture Lord said indifferently.
