Upon hearing this, Mo Xi suddenly froze!
He remembered that he had met the Murong Chuyi by chance in the academy and smelled a very familiar scent on him. At that time, he didn't remember what it was, but now that the Murong Lian mentioned it, he suddenly realized that it was a very similar scent to that of a dream.
"Murong Chuyi." The Murong Lian said faintly, "There's something you might not like to hear … but it's also fate. You were born at this time, so you're bound to face these internal and external troubles. You shouldn't be thinking about how to use crooked methods to make everyone listen to you. "
"Yes, Chong Hua is full of useless and useless people. It's really annoying and annoying. But if you don't have the ability to remove the sand from the waves, you can only mute every mouth and turn everyone into mindless puppets. That will be the true end of Chong Hua. "
An official took a step back and shook his head in disbelief, "Jun-Jun Shang? Is what he said true? "
"Could it be that this really isn't an exorcism medicine, but a pill that can control people's hearts like what the Lord Wangshu said?"
Jun Shang was indifferent and didn't say anything. He sat on the high seat, his expression dark and gloomy. After a while, he said, "Even if you don't believe me, you should at least believe in Jiang Yaoshi."
"Jiang Yaoshi has been in Chong Hua for so many years. Everyone knows what kind of person he is and whether he doesn't care about my position. If you think that Jiang Yaoshi is colluding with me to make you all obedient living puppets, then that's fine." Jun Shang spread out his hands indifferently, "Then return the medicine to Yaoshi. No one forced you to take it."
"…"
The officials looked left and right at each other, exchanging glances.
For a moment, they weren't sure who to believe. They knew very well that if what the Lord Wangshu said was true, once they swallowed the medicine, Jun Shang would have a way to easily control their actions.
But what if it wasn't?
What if the Lord Wangshu had other motives and wanted to frame Jun Shang?
If they put down the medicine now, it would undoubtedly be telling Jun Shang that they were on the Murong Lian's side. If they made a mistake in judgment, it would be almost impossible to get the medicine back.
Just as they were feeling conflicted, Jun Shang said coldly, "Now that Chongliao is at war, Liao Country is driving evil beasts to rain and spreading demonic energy all over Chong Hua. I've racked my brains to think of a solution all day long, but I've been slandered by the Murong Lian. I have no reason to explain myself. If you all want to believe me, please believe me. "
He turned his head, "Jiang Fuli."
"Yes?"
"Take back those pills that aren't needed. There's no need to give them to everyone."
"Yes.
Once they heard that the Monarch was going to take back the pills, some people finally panicked. Some of the nobles who didn't really trust Murong Lian stood out. They threw caution to the wind and pointed at Murong Lian, scolding: "Are you crazy?"
Murong Lian! You've always been arrogant and extravagant. You're rotten to the core and want to make life seem like a dream. How shameless! "
"Isn't he such an unscrupulous person? It's not like you don't know what kind of despicable tricks he used to defeat Lord Xi He in the competition. "
Some people heard this and looked at Mo Xi, "Don't you think so, Lord Xi He?"
Mo Xi didn't respond. These people were noisy, but he kept staring at Jiang Fuli with a frown.
Everyone was confused, "Lord Xi He …?"
Mo Xi still didn't speak. Just when they thought that Mo Xi wasn't going to say anything, he suddenly opened his mouth.
He said to Jiang Fuli, "Medicine Master Jiang, you know best whether the Murong Lian's smoking pipe is filled with a large amount of Heart-Calming Grass. Why don't you test it on the spot?"
The Murong Lian turned around and stared at him, "Mo Xi, what do you mean? This Jiang guy is Murong Xuan's lackey! You want him to test me? "
Mo Xi said, "Medicine Master Jiang has opened a clinic in Chong Hua for so many years. I don't think he's as you say."
"Mo guy, you …"
Even Gu Mang pulled him back and whispered, "Mo Xi, you're wrong …"
But Mo Xi gently shook off Gu Mang's hand, walked to the Murong Lian and took the smoking pipe. Under the angry gaze of the Murong Lian, he handed it to Jiang Fuli, "Medicine Master Jiang, please test it."
Jiang Fuli was silent for a moment. She took the smoking pipe, took out a few strands of tobacco from the tobacco pouch, and examined them carefully in her palm.
The candlelight in the main hall flickered from time to time due to the wind. Everyone's attention was focused on Jiang Fuli, who was carefully examining the Murong Lian's tobacco.
Because of this, Mo Xi finally confirmed his thoughts. The moment Jiang Fuli raised her head to speak, he suddenly condensed a snake whip, turned it into a sword, and pointed it at Jiang Fuli's throat.
The ministers didn't know why this happened and exclaimed, "Lord Xi He?!"
"This, this …"
Jiang Fuli narrowed her eyes and asked, "Lord Xi He, what do you mean by this?"
Mo Xi said coldly, "Medicine Master Jiang. Aren't you night blind with your left eye? "
Everyone, "!!"
Yes, yes … Wasn't Jiang Fuli blind with only one eye at night?!
Mo Xi said coldly, "Medicine Master Jiang, you used to wear a glass mirror to see at night. Are you going to tell me that you've suddenly recovered from your night blindness? Or are you going to tell me … "
He paused, and his voice was as cold as ice.
"You're not Jiang Fuli at all?"
When the officials heard this, they were shocked. Indeed, Jiang Fuli had night blindness, and it was a very special condition. No matter how bright the candles were, as long as it was night time, his left eye would not be able to see clearly. He would have to wear a single-piece glass mirror to move normally.
Jiang Fuli's expression changed slightly. After a while, he said, "I've been traveling all over the world. What's so strange about me recovering from my illness? Do I have to tell Lord Xi He?"
Although he argued like this, everyone's suspicions did not diminish. Jiang Fuli had been in Chong Hua for so many years, and his night blindness had never been cured. How could it be so coincidental that he recovered at this critical moment?
But Mo Xi said, "Oh? Congratulations, Alchemist Jiang. "
Jiang Fuli waved his sleeves and snorted.
"But there's one thing I'd like to ask Medicine Master Jiang. When Medicine Master Jiang treated Gu Mang, he said that there was a patient who looked like Gu Mang and had a mark on his shoulder. Medicine Master Jiang, do you remember what the mark looked like? "
"…"
The hall was dead silent. Only the sound of water dripping could be heard echoing in the hall.
Mo Xi waited for a long time. When he did not answer, he said coldly, "You're really forgetful."
Under such a strange conversation, the others could not help but ask Jiang Fuli about things that only they and Medicine Master Jiang knew. Jiang Fuli's expression became worse and worse under the pressure of the crowd. Mo Xi's Shuiran Sword was still at his throat. He could feel that Jiang Fuli's spiritual waves were becoming more and more unstable in the chaos. It was even approaching …
Tyrannical.
Mo Xi suddenly shivered. He pulled back his sword and said sternly, "Be careful!"
Some people reacted slowly and could not dodge in time. Mo Xi landed on the ground and raised his hand to cast layers of Bounded Domains. Almost at the same time, the place where "Jiang Fuli" was standing burst out with dazzling silver light. The strong spiritual waves were like the north wind from outside the Great Wall. They smashed against the Bounded Domains and made loud bangs.
"What … what on earth is this?"
"Monster … It's a monster!"
A terrifying howl tore out from the core of the white light. It penetrated the roof tiles and went straight to the sky! The howl of the ferocious beast was full of vigorous spiritual power. Some people with weak cultivation or old bodies felt their chests tremble. Some fell to the ground and some directly spat out a mouthful of blood.
The Murong Lian was also bleeding from the corner of his mouth. He slowly retreated to the side of Mo Xi and Gu Mang. He looked at Gu Mang first and met Gu Mang's blue eyes. He could not help but feel embarrassed. He turned his gaze to Mo Xi and asked with a frown, "What on earth is this?"
Mo Xi stared at the shadow in the white whirlpool that was becoming clearer and clearer. He said, "It should be the remnant soul of the Bloodsucking Scourge that we captured for him."
As soon as he finished speaking, as if to confirm his guess, a strong wind swept the ground, and the turbulence exploded. With a loud bang, the roof of the Throne Room was pierced with a big hole. The palace servants screamed and ran away. Amidst the turbulence that rustled like sand and sand, the white light rushed out from the roof and turned into a huge beast under the dark night sky with eyes as big as golden drums.
It had the beak of an eagle and the body of a dog. Its wings were spread. Wherever it passed, wind and thunder surged. The sky was already filled with muffled thunder. It squinted its eyes. Its blue eyes were like two shining mirrors. Through the broken roof tiles, it reflected the people who were attending the banquet with different expressions.
Someone screamed, "It's, it's the evil beast that made the rain!!"
"Isn't it the evil beast of the Burning Country?!!"
But more people reacted. They turned around, their eyes full of shock and horror. They looked at the man on the throne with a look of looking at a madman.
Lord Zhong Hua, Murong Chen, was still the same as before, extremely calm and indifferent as he sat on the high seat. The wind and clouds stirred up by the magical beasts and the lightning flashed in and out of his dark pupils. He looked at the ministers coldly, his lips actually carrying a trace of ridicule.
Someone reacted and asked in a trembling voice, "Could it be … you?"
"Emperor …"
"Murong Chen! So the evil rain in front of the Chong Hua was made by you!? It has nothing to do with the Burning Country! It was you who wanted to force us into a corner and force us to take your exorcism potion! This, this evil beast was made by you!!! "
The questioning was like a tide. The Emperor smiled slightly. There was a kind of suppressed madness on his pale and handsome face.
He crossed his fingers and said lightly, "I gave you a chance. I hoped that you would be obedient and obedient. I waited for you for many years. You didn't cherish it. Don't blame me for being arbitrary. "
"Murong Chen!! Are you crazy?!! Even the Burning Country used black magic to fight against outsiders. As the ruler of a country, you didn't hesitate to refine magical beasts to harm the people of your country, deceive the civil and military officials into taking your medicine, and fall into your traps one after another just to make your subjects submit to you?! You — how vicious you are! You are not worthy of being the Emperor!! "
All of a sudden, the truth surfaced with a loud crash. All of the nobles present, regardless of how cowardly they were in the past, couldn't help but burn with rage, their eyes bulging with rage.
"Fatuous Emperor!"
"You are worse than a beast!!"
Murong Chen sneered, "What? Do you all want to force me to abdicate? "
"You did such a ridiculous thing. For your own selfish reasons, you cultivated evil ways and killed the people. You still want to sit on the throne?"
"Murong Chen, you are not worthy of being the Emperor!"
"Is it up to you to decide whether I am worthy or not?" Murong Chen sneered and licked his lips. He looked like a hawk and a wolf, "You want to change the world? Why don't you see if you bunch of useless people have the ability to do so?"
As he said that, he raised his finger and said, "Jingchen, it is difficult to discipline your subjects. Kill the traitor!"
The evil beast that was refined by him using the Blood Demon's remnant soul let out a roar in the night sky. In an instant, clouds gathered, sand and stones flew, and lightning surged. It suddenly turned into thousands of sword rays and slashed towards the main hall!!
In an instant, there was a shattering sound. Bricks and tiles flew everywhere. Countless sword rays fell like hailstones. The cultivators below panicked and angrily opened their enchantments to defend themselves. However, the Blood Demon was too ferocious. Even if it was just a beast refined from a remnant soul, it was still unstoppable.
"Father!!"
"Lord!"
The change happened too quickly. Some of the old nobles who didn't work hard and neglected their cultivation could not react at all. They were directly pierced by the Blood Demon's sword qi and died in the golden hall. The main hall was suddenly filled with cries and screams.
"Open the enchantment! Quickly open the enchantment! "
"Who can save my father … Wu wu wu …"
"This evil beast is too powerful. I can't hold on …"
The tiles fell and the sword rays fell. There was no escape. A child who came with his father sat next to the corpse. Seeing that he was about to be assassinated by the second wave of sword rain, Gu Mang suddenly rushed out of the enchantment.
The Murong Lian was shocked. "Hey! Do you want to die? "
Who knew that although Gu Mang's spiritual power was damaged, he did not fall behind. He picked up the child and quickly rushed back. Just as he dodged into Mo Xi's enchantment, the evil beast Jingchen launched the second wave of sword rain to kill. The child was lucky and was saved. However, more people were not so lucky.
Jingchen's second attack was more ruthless than the first. Many people could not withstand it. The enchantment broke, and blood splattered everywhere. They died with their eyes open.
Amidst the bloody rain, Mo Xi turned to look at Jun Shang.
In the face of this sudden massacre, Murong Chen, the ruler of the Chong Hua, did not have the slightest ripple on his face. It was as if this situation had been rehearsed thousands of times in his mind. It was as if these people were really like bamboo warriors to him. They were just chess pieces that could be thrown away and discarded at will. The re-tempering of the evil beast Jingchen was still causing more casualties. Mo Xi's palm condensed blue light. He stared at Jun Shang and ordered sternly.
"Swallow the Sky — Summon!"
The scepter broke through the air with the whale's cry. It spread out into a powerful divine weapon that was covered in flowing light.
The Swallow the Sky Whale appeared. Its huge tail swung and jumped, forming a natural barrier that covered the entire Jinluan Hall. Jingchen seemed to be very afraid of the spirit of the Swallow the Sky Whale. Countless sword rays suddenly retracted and gathered in the sky again to form the original shape of an eagle with wings and a dog's body. It hissed and growled threateningly at the illusory body of the Swallow the Sky Whale. However, it jumped in the sky and did not dare to fight.
Under the protection of Mo Xi's Swallow the Sky Whale, the people in the hall were temporarily able to breathe. Some of them fell to the ground and gasped for breath. Some of them rushed to their relatives with tears in their eyes. There were even some who were filled with hatred. They wanted to rush up and kill Murong Chen.
"Murong Chen!!!"
"Father … Wu wu ah ah ah ah! Father! "
However, what made people uneasy was that even though the situation had reversed, Murong Chen did not have any fear or surprise. He used a kind of bone-chilling calmness to turn his eyes and look at Mo Xi. After a moment, the corners of his lips curled into a faint smile.
Murong Lian narrowed his eyes. "What are you smiling at?"
"I'm smiling because Lord Xi He is indeed very capable. He has been gifted since he was young. His Swallow the Sky Whale power is really enviable." Murong Chen said slowly.
"But you, Murong Lian, why don't you use your brain and think about it? Do you think that you are the first person that I will use as a puppet for my test? No, I will only use the Poison of the Black Demon on you if I am not confident in using it. "
"Before I used you as a trial, I had the only medicinal pill left behind by Chen Tang. It was refined from the seed of the Eight Bitter Everlasting Regret Flower of the demon race. I used it to make a puppet pill that could hibernate in people's hearts for a long time without being discovered — the only one. Ten years ago, I chose a strong enough person and hid the pill in his body. If he met with any misfortune today, I will awaken the pill and make him lose himself and work for me. "
"…"
Suddenly, a bone-piercing chill rushed up from the bottom of his feet and covered his entire body.
"Who do you think I will use it on?"
Almost everyone's gaze fell on Mo Xi in shock and fear. Even Mo Xi's expression changed.
Murong Chen still sat calmly on the throne and said calmly, "This was originally my worst plan. I did not expect that I would still have to do it in the end."
As he spoke, he raised his finger and a flame suddenly lit up.
A faint light jumped in the depths of his black eyes. Monarch stared at Mo Xi who was protecting everyone in the hall. His lips and teeth clenched as he said, "Puppet pill, disperse!"
