…
Faced with Li Chenglian's horsetail whisk, Fang Qingzhuo didn't resist at all. She just stood there silently, and it seemed like she was about to perish.
Bam!
Suddenly, a black figure dashed out like lightning. The sword in his hand collided with Li Chenglian's horsetail whisk, saving Fang Qingzhuo's life.
Everyone focused their eyes and saw that the person who had saved Fang Qing Zhuo at the critical moment was actually the great eunuch Gao Yin.
The weapons of the two peerless experts clashed in an instant.
"Boom!" The air suddenly trembled!
At this time, the Dragon Temple's judges reacted. Dozens of Holy Temple's cultivators rushed forward and surrounded Zhi Li and En Lin.
Li Chenglian roared, "Protect the King! Protect the King!"
Immediately, Li Zhu and a dozen other eunuchs rushed out.
Li Chenglian shouted, "Your Highness, go, go …"
Li Chenglian was indeed an old servant who had raised Zhi Li. Even at this time, she still wanted to sacrifice her life to protect Zhi Li.
Bam!
The door of the hall was smashed open.
Then, countless Imperial Guards and Shadow Pavilion's warriors rushed in and guarded every corner.
The commander of the Imperial Guards, Hei Ningqi, walked into the hall and shouted, "His Majesty has arrived!"
Then, Duchess Yanting pushed a wheelchair and slowly entered the Dragon Arrival Hall!
Seeing the skinny old man in the wheelchair, everyone gasped.
Isn't this His Majesty?
He, he is not dead. Not only is he not dead, but his eyes are open as if he is still conscious.
They were stunned for a long time.
Suddenly, Prime Minister Yan Wuji screamed. He clutched his heart and fell to the ground, unconscious.
The other civil and military officials, as well as the nobles and dukes, shivered as they knelt down.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
…
This series of events happened too fast!
From his wife, Fang Qingzhuo, exposing his demonic blood, to Li Chenglian killing Fang Qingzhuo, to Gao Yin saving him, and finally, the King's rebellion.
From the beginning to the end, it took less than a minute!
Zhi Li really didn't know whether he should look at the King or his wife, Fang Qingzhuo.
But in the end, he still looked at Fang Qingzhuo and said with a trembling voice, "Why? Although I have acted violently towards you, I still only love you. You are also my only Queen. Why did you betray me? "
Fang Qingzhuo said, "Because you are no longer fit to be a human. Zhi Ning's son is your nephew, but you did not hesitate to use his life to threaten Søren. That lunatic, Tu Lingduo, had tried to hurt the child time and again. He was only one year old. You couldn't defeat Søren, so you attacked a baby who wasn't even a year old yet. You are worse than a beast. "
Zhi Li said, "A real man needs to be ruthless. Søren is the same."
Fang Qingzhuo said, "No, he is different. He had the chance to kidnap your two daughters, but he didn't. After rescuing Gui Qinshao, he returned the two children to me. Even when I brought them back, they were still in a deep sleep. Because when Søren's subordinates carried our two daughters, not only did they carry them in the most comfortable position, they even covered their ears lightly and didn't wake them up, afraid that they would be frightened. "
"That's because Søren wasn't in a desperate situation." Zhi Li sneered.
Fang Qingzhuo said, "That's because Søren is human, unlike you who have become a beast!"
Zhi Li didn't argue anymore. He took a deep breath and still looked at his wife in disbelief.
She should be the most perfect woman in the world. Gentle, kind, generous, and forgiving.
Zhi Li had countless mistresses in the past, but she wouldn't say a word. She still took care of him gently, loved him, and didn't have the slightest bit of jealousy.
It was only when he tried to commit adultery with Tu Lingduo and murder Tu Liyang that he completely crossed Fang Qingzhuo's bottom line. It was also at that time that Fang Qingzhuo and Zhi Li separated.
But even then, Zhi Li still believed that his wife loved him and would never betray him.
Zhi Li really didn't expect that this gentle and kind woman would give him a fatal blow at such a crucial moment.
At this moment, Fang Qingzhuo didn't feel guilty or guilty. She just looked at Zhi Li and said gently, "The husband that I loved is already dead. You are no longer my husband. To protect my family, I can do anything. "
Zhi Li looked at his wife for a long time.
He had always thought that he understood her very well, but now it seemed that his understanding of her was very shallow.
At this moment, although Fang Qingzhuo had betrayed him and wanted him dead, Zhi Li didn't feel much hatred in his heart.
Recently, Zhi Li had done too many bad things, so he couldn't look straight at his righteous and kind wife.
Then, he avoided Fang Qingzhuo's gaze and looked at King Chi Bian!
Facing this person, Zhi Li didn't need to feel guilty and didn't need to hide the hostility in his eyes.
That night, when Li Chenglian sent out the successful signal flare in the palace, Zhi Li was puzzled. How could it be so easy to succeed? How could Chi Bian be killed so easily?
Although Li Chenglian and most of the experts from the Shadow Pavilion weren't around, they shouldn't have been so careless about the King's safety.
Sure enough, the person who was killed was only the King's substitute.
When Li Chenglian appeared with the assassins, the experts from the Shadow Pavilion immediately sealed off the Purple Jade Palace and moved King Chi Bian away through the secret underground tunnel. They placed the substitute that they had prepared for a long time on the bed.
When Li Chenglian saw this substitute, she was also very puzzled. Although he had the outline of the King, there was something strange about him.
But at that time, she had already paid a huge price to assassinate the King. Just like a gambler who had already put all his chips, she was naturally willing to think of everything in the best light.
Therefore, at that time, Li Chenglian kept telling herself that this was the King. This was the King. Otherwise, all the sacrifices would have been in vain. And when she lifted up the substitute's lapel and saw the five-star scar on his chest, Li Chenglian's heart settled and she felt that this was definitely the King.
This was like a drowning person who, no matter what he grabbed, felt that it could save his life.
In addition, when Gao Yin rushed in, he immediately let out an earth-shattering roar. Li Chenglian was even more willing to believe that this was the real King.
However, in Li Chenglian's heart, how could it not be filled with unease?
Therefore, when Li Chenglian saw King Chi Bian, although she looked shocked, her heart was somewhat calm. It was as if she had been mentally prepared for this scene.
…
All hopes turned to dust, all hopes turned to dust …
Zhi Li opened his mouth, but no sound came out. With great difficulty, he said hoarsely, "Chi Bian, since you're not dead, why don't you show yourself and expose me for regicide? Instead, you want to watch me ascend the throne. You know that once I truly ascend the throne, even if you're still alive, many things will be difficult to undo. "
King Chi Bian tried hard to open his eyes and speak, but he really couldn't make a sound. He was really extremely weak.
The great eunuch Gao Yin said, "The reason is very simple. It's because His Excellency Søren's son is in your hands. And he's imprisoned in the Dragon Temple, and we are powerless to rescue him. Once His Majesty appears and exposes you, in a fit of madness, you will choose to fight to the death. Then Xiaojun will be in danger! "
Zhi Li said, "Then why did you suddenly appear?"
Gao Yin said, "Madam Fang Qingzhuo is on the verge of death. She sacrificed so much to save Xiaojun. How can we watch her die in Li Chenglian's hands without doing anything? If His Excellency Søren finds out in the future, he will never forgive me. "
"Haha …" Zhi Li let out a strange laugh, "You're really loyal!"
Gao Yin said, "We didn't expect Madam Fang Qingzhuo to expose you, and we were deeply shocked. In order to save Xiaojun, she was willing to sacrifice her own life and reputation, treating the position of Empress like grass. "
Finished, Gao Yin knelt down in front of Fang Qingzhuo, "This old servant thanks Madam for protecting Xiaojun."
Fang Qingzhuo thought she was going to die, but she didn't expect to be saved by Gao Yin. She quickly got up and said, "I don't dare … I don't dare to accept Master Gao's kindness. You took away my two daughters, but immediately returned them and didn't even have the heart to wake them up. I will remember this. Moreover, Baobao is my family. "
Zhi Li couldn't bear to see his wife like this. He immediately laughed sinisterly, "Bi Bian, you didn't dare to appear because you were worried about Søren's son's life. Now you're not worried about Søren's son anymore? You should know that that crazy woman, Tu Lingduo, is in the secret chamber, holding Zhi Ning and her son hostage. If she knows what happened in the palace, what will she do? "
As soon as he said this, Fang Qingzhuo's delicate body trembled.
When she left Fengdu Holy Temple, Tu Lingduo wasn't in the secret chamber.
Moreover, from Fang Qingzhuo's point of view, Tu Lingduo wouldn't miss the glorious moment of Zhi Li's coronation. She would definitely disguise herself and hide in the crowd to watch the ceremony.
Now that Zhi Li said that Tu Lingduo was in the secret chamber in Fengdu Holy Temple with Zhi Ning and her son, how could Fang Qingzhuo not feel a chill down her spine?
Tu Lingduo was a madwoman, a poisonous snake!
She was in the secret chamber with Zhi Ning and her son. That feeling was like a poisonous snake, coiling around Baobao at all times.
What would Tu Lingduo do if the news of what happened in the palace reached her ears?
This completely crazy woman would do anything. She could even do the bloodiest, cruelest, and completely trample on humanity's bottom line!
Immediately, Fang Qingzhuo said to Gao Yin, "Quick, go to Fengdu Holy Temple and rescue Zhi Ning and my son. It'll be too late if we're late!"
Gao Yin replied, "Don't worry, Sir Søren and Her Royal Highness have already gone to Fengdu Holy Temple to rescue Xiaojun."
"Hahaha …" Zhi Li laughed. "What's the use of Jung Yeon going? She can't even enter the door. Jung Yeon has already broken ties with the Dragon Temple. No matter how capable Søren is, he can't rescue his son. If he's capable, he can force his way into the Dragon Temple! Hahaha … "
Then, Zhi Li let out an incomparably mournful and cruel laugh.
All the officials in the hall felt their hairs stand on end, their backs glistening!
"Søren, I've lost. I'm finished!" Zhi Li laughed. "But before I die, I can see your flesh and blood die tragically. I can see you in so much pain. It's all worth it, hahaha …"
…
Zhi Ning said that for Jung Yeon's sake, Gao Yin would definitely not tell Søren about the baby's life being threatened.
But the night before yesterday, when Gao Yin received Zhi Ning's letter in blood, he immediately sent a griffin rider to deliver it to Søren as fast as possible.
Moreover, Gao Yin also attached the information that Zhi Li had assassinated the king, but the one who died was only a substitute.
Gao Yin also sent a letter of apology. Because Zhi Ning and her son were imprisoned in Fengdu Holy Temple, Gao Yin was unable to rescue them, so he formally apologized to Søren.
Yesterday morning, not long after Søren and Princess Jung Yeon went to pay their respects to Duke Turin Tuo, they received a secret letter from Gao Yin.
Immediately, Søren's hair stood on end, and his head felt like it was going to explode!
First of all, he never thought that Zhi Li would assassinate the king.
Anyone with a brain wouldn't do something like this that had a 90% chance of survival.
From Søren's point of view, Zhi Li's only way out was to lead his trusted subordinates to escape to the Yan Empire, establish a government-in-exile, and make a comeback.
And Zhi Ning and her son would definitely be brought to the Yan Empire by Zhi Li as his hostages. But, there should not be any life-threatening danger.
He never thought that Zhi Li would do such a crazy thing as assassinating the king. Søren was puzzled.
The Zhi Li he knew was not such a crazy and brainless person.
Soon, Tu Ningchen came to pledge his loyalty and knelt before him, and told him a shocking secret.
Zhi Li had the devil's blood!
All of a sudden, everything made sense!
Zhi Li assassinated the king and forcefully ascended the throne. Although it was dangerous, he had no other choice.
Then, Søren knew that Zhi Ning and her son were in danger!
If Zhi Li escaped to the Yan Empire unhurriedly, Zhi Ning and her son would not be in much danger.
But if he assassinated the king and forcefully ascended the throne, it would be like walking on a tightrope, walking on a mountain of knives and a sea of fire, and he could be destroyed at any time.
At this time, Zhi Li was crazy, and he would definitely treat Zhi Ning and her son as his only life-saving straw. In order to blackmail Søren and Gao Yin, he would do anything.
Once Gao Yin did something to provoke Zhi Li, or if Duke Linting made a threatening remark, Zhi Li would use bloody means to deal with his baby and intimidate them.
Suddenly, Søren's back went numb, and his scalp stood on end.
He immediately used a hawk to send a message to Gao Yin and Linting, telling them not to do anything to provoke Zhi Li!
If his son was harmed in any way, Sauron would never forgive himself!
The cunning Zhi Li had imprisoned Zhi Ning and her son in a secret chamber in the Holy Temple of Fengdu, which cut off any possibility of rescue by force!
No matter who broke into the Dragon Temple, there would only be one result — death without a burial place.
Immediately, Søren and Jung Yeon left everything behind, and rode the Griffin to the Yan Empire.
At present, only two people could save Zhi Ning and her son. One was Huai Bingji, and the other was Ji Soo-ning!
And Søren and Jung Yeon chose Ji Soo-ning!
At the risk of violating the airspace of the Yan Empire, Søren and Jung Yeon found Saintess Ji Soo-ning in the Yanjing Temple.
Ji Soo-ning, the eldest princess of the Yan Empire.
The saintess of the Dragon Temple, the future Sky Shaman.
The spiritual leader of the entire Dragon Temple in 30 years' time!
After hearing Søren and Jung Yeon's request, she immediately rode the Griffin and followed Søren and Jung Yeon to the Raging Wave Kingdom to save her son!
Her benevolence and love were not fake at all!
In her opinion, no matter how fierce the political struggle in the human kingdom was, she would not care. But threatening the life of a baby was completely trampling on the bottom line of human beings. She would never sit idly by, not to mention that the Dragon Temple played a very dishonorable role in it.
And because of the existence of people like her, the Dragon Temple could still whitewash its bright appearance.
…
The moment the Griffin of Søren, Jung Yeon, and Ji Soo-ning entered the sky of the Dragon Temple, they were immediately intercepted!
At the same time, dozens of extremely powerful spirit powers locked onto Ji Soo-ning and the others. A few Griffin Riders took off at the same time.
Ji Soo-ning raised the token of the Temple of the Sky and sent out the unique spirit signal of the Temple of the Sky.
In an instant …
The Griffin Riders who had just taken off quickly descended. All the spirit powers that locked onto Søren and the others disappeared without a trace.
Then, under Ji Soo-ning's lead, Søren and the others entered the depths of the Fengdu Holy Temple unimpeded and landed in front of the tower where Zhi Ning and her son were imprisoned.
"This is a forbidden area. No one is allowed to enter!" Four Holy Temple cultivators guarding the tower came forward to intercept them!
Ji Soo-ning once again took out the token of the Temple of the Sky!
The four Holy Temple cultivators were shocked. She was the Saintess of the Temple of the Sky. They felt like their souls were about to leave their bodies.
However, their fates were completely tied to Zhi Li.
Although the Temple of the Sky was supreme, it was too far away from them. The only ones who could decide the fate of these four cultivators were the shaman and the high priest.
That was why the four Holy Temple cultivators gritted their teeth and refused to allow Ji Soo-ning and the others to enter.
These people were so daring that they even dared to stop the Saintess of the Temple of the Sky!
It was like a central investigation team going to a prefecture-level city. Everyone was scared out of their wits and no one dared to stand in their way. However, the defense team of a certain county dared to stop them and not allow them to enter a certain place for investigation.
"Saintess, I need to report to the high priest before I can heal you." The leader of the Holy Temple cultivators said, "Without High Priest Naru's orders, no one is allowed to enter!"
High Priest Naru was Zhi Li's strongest supporter in the Dragon Temple.
Ji Xiuning's face that was as beautiful as a fairy turned cold. Her beautiful eyes focused, and an incomparably powerful spiritual force burst out.
In an instant, the four powerful Holy Temple cultivators were sent flying and fell to the ground. It was unknown whether they were dead or alive.
Then, Ji Soo-ning, Jung Yeon, and Søren followed the stairs and rushed down the tower.
Like lightning, the three of them suddenly appeared in the secret room where Zhi Ning and her son were imprisoned!
Immediately, Sauron saw a scene where his eyes were about to pop out of their sockets!
Tu Lingduo was completely unaware of the three's arrival. She waved the dagger in her hand and pinched the baby's mouth. "Oh, so many baby teeth. I'll pull them all out and give them to your father, Søren, as a gift, okay?"
