"As expected of the Mother of the World, but it's clearly targeted at Miss Consort Yuan. There seems to be a Daoist priest among them? Could it be that they're trying to exorcise demons in the palace tonight? It's also because Hakuziyue has returned to Righteous Dipper Sect to fight for the position of sect master. Consort Yuan has no one by her side, and her abilities are greatly reduced. This is the best chance to deal with Consort Yuan. "
Seeing the tripartite trial in front of Earthorigin Palace, Hong Yi knew that the empress had no good intentions in suddenly issuing a decree to Consort Yuan at night.
It was very likely that the empress had also received news that Righteous Dipper Sect Master Bai Fengxian had been injured and dismembered while chasing after the Monogatari.
Righteous Dipper Sect was the pillar of the Yuan Tu Nation. Now that it was in turmoil, it naturally affected Consort Yuan, the princess of the Yuan Tu Nation.
Consort Yuan's background was a very unstable factor for the Da Qian Palace, especially the harem. Since the empress was from the thousand-year-old Ji Family, how could she not know that Consort Yuan's previous life was one of the eight great demon immortals, Monarch Sweetyfox?
"Miss Consort Yuan might be a ghost immortal with profound Daoist techniques, but the Da Qian Palace is full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons. The empress's power is not to be underestimated. In addition, there are Daoist priests from the Righteous Sect … Miss Consort Yuan's Daoist techniques are very likely to be at a disadvantage."
Hong Yi knew that although Consort Yuan's Daoist techniques were profound and the eight great demon immortals were all figures who could dominate the world, this was the Da Qian Palace. It was a strategic location with countless experts and unimaginable power. With the power of a ghost immortal, it was indeed difficult for her to make any big waves.
"Your Highness, please alight. We've arrived at Earthorigin Palace."
The carriage stopped in front of Earthorigin Palace. Eunuch Xiao Ao, who had just issued the decree, once again spoke in a croaky voice.
With Hong Yi holding her hand, Consort Yuan got off the carriage in a weak and fragile manner. She wrapped herself in a white fox fur coat and directly walked in through the main entrance of the Palace of Earthly Origin, ignoring the imposing atmosphere of the Palace of Earthly Origin.
While walking, Hong Yi suddenly felt Consort Yuan Rouran's hand pinch his own. He could feel the slight pain in his heart.
Consort Yuan's pinch was a little "ruthless". She meant that no matter what happened later, Hong Yi must be ruthless and not have any misgivings.
Originally, Hong Yi did have some misgivings in the Imperial Palace. However, after Consort Yuan's pinch, he was completely relieved.
The floor of the Palace of Earthly Origin was also made of "golden bricks" made from "Black Gold Clay". Walking on the floor made a hollow sound, making one's soul feel numb.
As soon as he stepped through the high threshold of the palace and entered the inner hall, Hong Yi felt a kind of dizziness. It was not because someone had cast a spell on him, but because the architecture of the Palace of Earthly Origin was magnificent and spacious. The majesty of the imperial family was everywhere.
In the middle of the hall sat a middle-aged woman. This woman had a golden phoenix hairpin in her hair. She wore an embroidered dress with nine phoenixes embroidered with the sun. Her eyes seemed to be closed, and her hands were covered with long, sharp ivory nails. She had a peaceful demeanor as if she lived a comfortable life and didn't care about anything.
Without a doubt, this middle-aged woman was the Empress, the mother of the world. She was also the descendant of a sage from the Ji Clan.
"Since she's the Crown Prince's mother, she must be in her fifties or sixties. However, from the looks of it, she seems to be in her thirties or forties. However, at this time, it's not good for my soul to leave my body, so it's difficult for me to look at her Qi. "
Hong Yi stole a glance at the Empress, who was sitting in the middle. He didn't use his Qi Observation because it was inconvenient for him to do so.
Behind the Empress was a eunuch dressed in purple. It was actually a eunuch dressed in purple! In the palace, he was one of the chief stewards of the Six Palaces.
Hong Yi had already received the news from Prince Yu. In the palace, there were three chief stewards of the Six Palaces. One was by the Emperor's side, and one was by the Empress's side. Their martial arts were unimaginably profound, and they were probably on par with the Crown Prince's Yin Lianhua.
Although Yin Lianhua was a red-robed eunuch, with his martial arts, he could be a purple-robed eunuch. However, in the future, when the Crown Prince ascended the throne, he would definitely be the number one chief steward.
In addition, there were two red-robed eunuchs. They were somewhat similar to Eunuch Xiao Ao from before. They were old and clumsy, and they guarded their Qi.
In addition, there were a few nannies standing there, giving off a sense of danger.
"These nannies must be of the same level as Nanny Zeng. Perhaps they have cultivated Taoist techniques, and their realms are much higher than Nanny Zeng's."
When Hong Yi saw the palace nannies, he thought of the first time that old witch Nanny Zeng had attacked him with Taoist techniques in Marquis Wu Wen's mansion.
However, these eunuchs and nannies were not enough to attract Hong Yi's attention.
Because there was another person who deeply attracted Hong Yi's attention.
This person was a Taoist priest, and he was the second person sitting in the entire Kunyuan Palace.
This Taoist priest had white sideburns, and his hair was pinned up with a jade hairpin. He wore a green Taoist robe and a pair of cloth shoes. He did not have the demeanor of a Taoist priest, but he had the demeanor of a great scholar. In terms of demeanor and temperament, he was somewhat similar to Hong Xuanji. However, there was an additional otherworldly quality to him. He did not have the domineering aura of Hong Xuanji, who controlled the terrifying power of heaven and earth, nor did he have the sense of control of heaven and earth like Hong Xuanji.
Compared to Hong Xuanji, this Taoist priest was a great scholar. The Taoist priest's temperament was the foundation, while the Taoist priest's foundation was a kind of otherworldly ethereal and righteous rule, a combination of Taoism and Confucianism.
"Good heavens, what kind of big shot is this? Although compared to Hong Xuanji, Hong Xuanji is a bit more powerful, he can still put pressure on my mind. This guy is at least a lightning tribulation expert. Ji Clan … Could this Taoist priest be the Righteous Sect's sect master, Ji Changyue, the top scholar twenty years ago? "
Hong Yi looked at the Daoist priest and was slightly taken aback.
Because in his mind's intuition, this Taoist priest was even more powerful than Saint Tu Yuan.
In an instant, he knew that this Taoist priest must be the Righteous Sect's sect master, Ji Changyue. Only this sect master could put a kind of spiritual pressure on Hong Yi and make him feel a sense of danger.
"Greetings, Your Highness."
Sure enough, Hong Yi's guess was right. The woman sitting in the middle was the motherly model of the world, Ji Clan's empress.
"Hmm." Seeing Consort Yuan bow slightly, Ji Clan's empress made a slight "hmm" sound from her nose. No one knew what it meant, nor did she order the eunuchs to move a seat for her.
Seeing the empress's posture, Consort Yuan showed a sneer at the corner of her mouth.
According to court etiquette, the Imperial Noble Consort was qualified to sit below the empress. After seeing the empress and bowing, she could take a seat. Now that the empress did this, there was a sense of danger.
"I wonder why Your Highness has summoned me so late at night?" Consort Yuan looked at the empress and asked in a cold tone.
"Of course there is something." Looking at Consort Yuan's expression, the empress frowned slightly, but said in a calm tone, "Recently, the imperial harem has been a little dirty. As the empress and the head of the imperial harem, I have to manage the family affairs for Your Majesty. "There are some things that have to be done. I heard that at this time last year, a fox appeared in the Heavenly Fragrance House where Consort Yuan lived, and it even scared the eunuchs and palace maids. This is likely to be a fox ghost, a demon. It's a big deal if a demon sneaks into the imperial harem, so today I invited Immortal Zhengyi to clean up the filth for Consort Yuan and get rid of the demon aura on her body, so that there won't be any more demons making trouble. "
As soon as the empress said this, although it was calm, Hong Yi felt a chill in his heart.
He finally knew what the empress was going to do by issuing an edict so late at night and asking Consort Yuan to see the emperor.
The empress just wanted to take the opportunity to abolish Consort Yuan's cultivation or seal Consort Yuan's Taoist magic arts! She wanted to make Consort Yuan an ordinary woman. Consort Yuan was the princess of the Yuan Tu Country, and the empress wanted to kill her. Naturally, she wouldn't kill her. Otherwise, the impact would be too great and the border would be unstable.
However, it wasn't difficult to invite an expert in Taoist magic arts to use the excuse of exorcism to seal Consort Yuan's spirit, abolish her cultivation, and turn her into an ordinary woman.
In the past, Hakuziyue had been by Consort Yuan's side. If the empress did this, she would have to deal with two great demon immortals, especially one of which was the third-ranked White Ape King. She had too many scruples and could easily cause a commotion.
Now, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity had finally appeared. Hakuziyue had returned to the Yuan Tu Country to fight for the position of Righteous Dipper Sect's head, and Consort Yuan's side would be empty.
Although Consort Yuan was Monarch Sweetyfox, a dignified ghost immortal, her power alone was weak. The empress had also invited an expert like Ji Changyue, the head of the Righteous Sect, to make a sudden move. It was enough to complete this trick.
"Good move, good move. Isn't this another method of a wife bullying a concubine? Madam Zhao bullying my mother back then was probably like this. Hehe, hehe … It's better to come at the right time than to come early. "
All of a sudden, a sense of injustice surged in Hong Yi's heart.
Because the scene in front of him was very similar to the scene between his mother and Madam Zhao.
This was the scene that Hong Yi could not bear to see the most in his life.
"I don't care if you're the empress, the motherly model of the world, or the head of the Righteous Sect. If you want to deal with Miss Consort Yuan today, you can all go to hell." A crazy thought spun in Hong Yi's mind. He roared, and the expression on his face became a little strange.
This feeling of injustice grew crazily. He felt as if he had returned to eight years ago, in the garden on the mid-autumn festival, when his mother was reprimanded by Madam Zhao and vomited blood.
"My thoughts have actually grown to such an extent." In the face of this crazy thought and intense feeling of injustice, Hong Yi's true nature was extremely calm.
However, he did not suppress this crazy thought and the feeling of injustice. Instead, in his mind, a War God Golem flashed.
Then, this feeling of injustice merged with the War God's indomitable spirit!
Rumble!
Hong Yi's spirit underwent an earth-shattering change.
"Oh no! It actually happened at this time. Dao technique breakthrough! War God Demon Scripture greater mastery! "
