Inside the hall, everyone looked at the divine bird with eager eyes.
Imperial Concubine Xue was the most expectant. She asked gently, "Divine bird, you are the spirit pet of Marshal Zuo. You must know that he has an imperial edict."
"Of course. I talk to him about everything. I know everything about him. Everything." The divine bird said wretchedly, emphasizing the word "everything." He knew that Imperial Concubine Xue was kneeling and licking his boots.
Imperial Concubine Xue's face turned red, but she quickly hid it. She said sternly, "Divine bird, please tell the world about the imperial edict. It involves the orthodoxy of the world. You must not lie. Otherwise, even Mister will not be able to protect you."
The divine bird curled his lips and thought, "Little slut, why are you pretending to be pure? You even dare to threaten this divine bird."
Marshal Xue was exhausted and his injuries were getting worse. He did not want to waste any more time, so he said, "Divine bird, tell us about the imperial edict. Your words and actions represent Marshal Zuo. Do not tarnish his reputation."
The divine bird stood on Tong Tong's shoulder and said proudly, "This divine bird's reputation is no worse than my master's. Don't make me sound so unbearable … Fine, since you need it so much, I will tell you. In fact, the imperial edict was written when His Majesty first came out of seclusion and announced my master to enter the inner palace. His Majesty's personal bodyguard can testify that the crown prince is the Ninth Prince."
"Impossible! His Majesty has already grounded the Ninth Prince. How can he still make him the crown prince? You lowly bird, you must pay for your nonsense! "The Fourth Prince and the Seventh Prince roared at the same time.
"This divine bird swears on my honor that if I lie, I will be struck by lightning." The divine bird said solemnly.
The Ninth Prince was stunned. He did not expect that Ye Qinghan would protect him in the end! He had even found someone to assassinate him. He was surprised and happy and did not know what to do. He looked at Imperial Concubine Xue and found that she already knew. He knew that Imperial Concubine Xue was working hard.
"This old man does not believe it. Wait for Zuo Feng to come back and show us the imperial edict! Only when His Majesty wakes up can he make another crown prince. Otherwise, the royal family should vote together. Letting a lowly bird announce the throne of an empire, this is the biggest joke in the world! " The Divine Lord interrupted the divine bird angrily. He wanted to stall for time. Today, he would wipe out the Zuo Marshal's Mansion and kill Marshal Yun. Then, the ministers would have no leader and could only assist the Fourth Prince.
"It's up to you whether you believe it or not. If you don't believe it, then so be it. Anyway, I'm back." The Divine Bird raised its head and said disdainfully.
"Since you don't believe me, then let's not talk about the throne for now. Before the return of the Left Marshal, I am still an assistant minister. You must listen to me in everything! The court is dismissed. "
"Farewell, Marshal Yun!"
The ministers bowed and sent Marshal Snow off. Inside the hall, Gu Qingyu and the others also quickly left.
Once the court session ended, a faint murderous aura emanated from the Sacred City. Dark clouds covered the sky, and the rolling pressure made it difficult for people to breathe.
The Divine Lord looked up at the sky with a sinister smile.
"Those who obey me will be sacrificed to the gods. Those who defy me will have their entire family slaughtered! Marshal Yun, the first will start with you. Zuo Shuai Fu, you are the second! Your forces will be uprooted tonight! "
A large group of black-clothed men appeared in the Sacred City and quickly disappeared from the major streets.
As night fell, the Forbidden Army and the City Guards were all mobilized. The patrol frequency increased several times. There were a thousand soldiers patrolling each mansion. As if they had sensed the sinister murderous aura, the major mansions also mobilized experts to strengthen the patrol.
An elite troop appeared in Zuo Shuai Fu. The experts of the Forbidden Army were all gathered here. A Border Army also appeared in Marshal Yun's mansion. Obviously, they were there to guard against assassinations.
However, the Divine Lord was a powerful expert. If he really wanted to assassinate someone, not many people could resist.
However, the Divine Lord was not the only one who was taking action tonight. The Heavenly Lord appeared beside the Divine Lord. He was dressed in black and had a tall and straight body. He wore a mask and held a short sword in his hand.
"Tonight, I want a river of blood to flow in the Sacred City. Those who obey me will prosper and those who defy me will die! This is the list. Except for Zuo Shuai Fu and Marshal Yun's mansion, I will personally take care of the others. "The Divine Lord said in a deep voice.
The Heavenly Lord looked at the list. They were all city lords and important ministers of the country! Once they were all killed, the entire empire would collapse. If the emperor had not fainted, he would not have dared to take action against these people.
"Give me half of what I want first. Give me the other half when you are done," the Heavenly Lord said in a deep voice.
"Take it and count it yourself," the Divine Lord said indifferently.
"Is there anything else you want to tell me? If not, I will take action. "The Heavenly Lord remembered all the names and put them away.
"Are you interested in wiping out Hell and making Heaven the only assassin organization?" the Divine Lord asked in a low voice.
"Hahaha, I will not interfere with your grudges. Even if I wipe out Hell, there is still the Yantian Pavilion. The world is so big that it can be divided into three parts. If anything happens, I can make them the scapegoat."
The Heavenly Lord laughed and left. Obviously, he knew that the Divine Lord had been tricked by the Hell Lord into giving him a pseudo world weapon material. He did not want to be fooled and used as a tool.
After the Heavenly Lord disappeared, after dawn, the entire Sacred City began to bleed. Killing intent filled the sky. However, the outside world did not know. They were all patrolling outside the master's room. They did not know that the master had been dead for a long time.
The Divine Lord appeared in Marshal Snow's residence. The outside of the residence was tightly surrounded by the army. There were close to ten thousand strong cultivators. Even a mosquito could not fly in.
There were more than ten Supreme Gods in the army guarding the space. The defense was even stricter than the Left Marshal's residence. It was almost impossible for the Divine Lord to assassinate Marshal Snow quietly.
Marshal Snow was not staying in the main palace. He was staying in a private room beside a lake with a bodyguard. There were no maids coming in or out. No one would suspect that he was staying there.
The Divine Lord took out a human mask from his Yin and Yang Ring and put it on his face. It was exactly the same as Ye Qinghan's. There were no flaws.
The Divine Lord walked out and faced the army. A "ban" order appeared in his hand. It was exactly the same as the Left Marshal's order that Ye Qinghan had.
"Lord Left Marshal!"
The leading general was shocked. He did not expect the Left Marshal to appear here at night.
"Don't show off. Take me to Lord Marshal Snow. I want to catch the Divine Lord off guard." The Divine Lord said in a low voice.
"Yes! Lord! "
The general of the Snow Domain Army saw the order. He naturally did not think that this Ye Qinghan was a fake. He took the Divine Lord into Marshal Snow's residence.
The Divine Lord appeared in Marshal Snow's courtyard and said in a deep voice, "Zuo Feng is here to visit Lord Marshal Snow."
Marshal Snow woke up from his seclusion. The bodyguard beside him stopped the Divine Lord.
The Divine Lord took out the Left Marshal's order again. Marshal Snow walked out of his room. He looked at the Left Marshal's order. It was exactly the same as the real thing. His appearance and body had been changed. He did not suspect that this person was a fake Divine Lord.
"Come in."
Marshal Snow said hoarsely.
