What Jun Fan said was too shocking. It made Qing Zhu's fingers tremble, her face pale, and her head buzzing.
Although she was already prepared to betray the Empress, it was definitely not to the extent of poisoning her.
No matter what, the Empress had nurtured her for so many years.
She was indebted to her.
If it wasn't for the Empress's nurturing back then, how could she have her current position?
She could betray the Empress, but she absolutely couldn't do something like poisoning her.
"Qing Zhu, don't worry, this matter won't have anything to do with you. This bottle of pill powder doesn't have any poison ingredients, so it won't be detected by others."
"I know you're kind-hearted and can't do such a thing, but you have to know that Xi Yao is ruthless, cold, and heartless. If she knew you were related to me, do you think she would still let you go because of old feelings … "
"At that time, who can save you?"
Seeing Qing Zhu's expression, Jun Fan seemed to have expected it. He sighed and continued to persuade her.
"You … you're right."
"Once the Empress finds out, she won't let me go."
Qing Zhu's face turned pale and her eyes widened.
Hearing this, her heart began to waver. She knew that she had no other choice now.
When she agreed to be a spy by the Empress's side, she should have thought of this day.
She wasn't willing to just be a female official and be casually given to some big shot by the Empress in the future, just like that night.
In the Empress's eyes, they were just tools, and the kind that could be casually discarded.
"How confident are you?"
Soon, Qing Zhu also calmed down and stared at Jun Fan.
Ingrate?
No, if she couldn't even keep her life, what was the use of this so-called loyalty?
At the same time, she took the white porcelain bottle in Jun Fan's hand.
"If you succeed, there's more than a ninety percent chance."
Seeing this, Jun Fan's face lit up and he promised, "I've already controlled the rest of the people, so everything is ready. And the pill powder in your hand actually only has a mediating effect. If the other steps fail, there won't be any impact on your side. "
What he meant was that whatever Qing Zhu did would not be discovered by anyone.
Qing Zhu nodded. She knew what Jun Fan meant by that.
This kind of mixed poison, if separated separately, would not be poisonous. Instead, it would have the effect of recuperating.
In this way, even if Empress Xi Yao became suspicious of her daily meals, she would not be able to find any trace of toxicity.
She was also much safer, and there was no risk of being exposed.
"Then I'll believe you."
Qing Zhu's expression became firm, and there was madness in her eyes.
If she were to succeed, she would also become the one who overthrew the Empress's rule in the history books, and her name would go down in history!
After that, the two of them discussed for a while before Qing Zhu stood up and bid her farewells. She seemed to be laden with worries and her footsteps were heavy.
Jun Fan watched her leave. In the end, he sighed faintly and said, "Qing Zhu, forgive me. If I succeed in the end, I will give you the antidote."
After saying that, he looked at the teacup on the stone table. The tea was still steaming, and there was a faint tea fragrance.
Jun Fan had a complicated look in his eyes.
He couldn't be blamed for that.
After all, his identity meant that he couldn't be exposed to the light of day. If this assassination succeeded, then it would be a different story.
If the assassination failed, what kind of danger would follow?
Qing Zhu knew his identity. Once Empress Xi Yao found out, he would definitely be exposed.
At that time, what would happen to his mother, father, brother, and sister in this life? There were also all kinds of terrifying things.
Jun Fan didn't dare to imagine.
So, just in case, he poisoned the tea and quietly let Qing Zhu drink it.
Qing Zhu didn't suspect him.
If the assassination failed, Qing Zhu wouldn't be able to live without the antidote.
Others would think that she committed suicide to escape punishment and wouldn't suspect him.
If the assassination succeeded, he would give Qing Zhu the antidote and ask for her forgiveness.
"This plan is absolutely foolproof. As long as Xi Yao appears at the Prodigy's Banquet, there won't be any accidents."
Thinking of this, Jun Fan's expression turned cold and hard.
…
"Young Master, the purple-dressed woman you asked me to keep an eye on seemed to go to the Black-White Academy after leaving the palace."
"But she didn't stay there for long before leaving."
On the other side, Gu Changge was leisurely playing chess in the magnificent palace. Hearing this, he couldn't help but feel a little interested.
Beside him, a fierce-looking man with a murderous aura was respectfully reporting.
The man was called Tian Ze, and he was a subordinate selected from the Star Field of Chaos. He was a Great Saint and had rich experience in killing.
"Black-White Academy? If I'm not mistaken, this place was created by Empress Xi Yao six thousand years ago in order to select geniuses. "
Gu Changge casually placed a chess piece. "Then it seems that she went to the Black-White Academy to look for someone. She didn't stay for long. It seems that she was there to pass on information."
Thinking of this, he smiled.
If he hadn't paid attention at that time, he probably wouldn't have discovered this.
Speaking of which, Empress Xi Yao probably didn't expect that the confidant she had painstakingly cultivated would become someone else's spy.
In this way, wouldn't her whereabouts and whereabouts be constantly exposed to the enemy's field of vision?
Jiang Luoshen frowned. Looking at the dead end on the chessboard and the inexplicable smile on Gu Changge's face, she was upset.
Her chess skills weren't bad.
Why did she lose to him time and time again? Why didn't she have a chance of winning?
"Moreover, if Jun Bufan was more ruthless, he could find a way to poison Empress Xi Yao's daily cultivation and even her meals … But this is unlikely. With Empress Xi Yao's vigilance, it's difficult …"
"Hmm? No … "
Gu Changge ignored her and tapped his fingers on the chessboard.
Suddenly, he thought of a possibility that could be done without anyone knowing.
The premise was that Empress Xi Yao's female official was bold enough.
"Three days later, it will be the Demon Realm's Prodigy Banquet. Many big families of the Nine Regions will come to the Black-White Academy to participate. Empress Xi Yao will also appear at this time.
"At that time, there will be a mix of good and bad people. It will definitely be a good opportunity to make a move.
"If I were the son of the Demon Emperor, I would definitely choose this time to make a move … And if my guess is correct, Jun Bufan is now hiding in the Black-White Academy."
Gu Changge narrowed his eyes and quickly figured out this matter.
The Black-White Academy had hundreds of thousands of disciples.
It would be very troublesome to find them one by one.
Therefore, he wasn't in a hurry. Now that the scope had narrowed down, as long as the son of the Demon Emperor appeared in front of him, he would definitely be noticed.
"Haha, speaking of which, Empress Xi Yao is quite pitiful. She was kept in the dark and didn't know it. If things had gone according to the normal course, maybe Jun Bufan would have succeeded in this Tianjiao Banquet."
Of course, Gu Changge didn't believe that Empress Xi Yao didn't have any tricks up her sleeve.
Although he saw through everything, he didn't intend to tell her.
Gu Changge planned to control Empress Xi Yao. The most important thing was to let her rely on him first.
As for how dependent she would be, it would depend on whether Jun Bufan would create an opportunity for him.
That female official called Qing Zhu might also become the key person to influence the Prodigy Banquet three days later.
"Continue to keep a close eye on her movements. If you notice anything unusual, report to me immediately."
After thinking for a while, Gu Changge continued to instruct.
"Yes, Young Master."
After receiving the order, Tian Ze's figure moved and quickly disappeared.
Gu Changge's fingers continued to tap on the chessboard unhurriedly.
"At present, although Bai Kun's daughter Bai Lian 'er and his disciple have come to the Demon Realm, they haven't found Jun Bufan. I just don't know if there will be any changes …"
He thought of this matter.
As the owner behind the Spring Breeze Jasper Pavilion, his cultivation was at least at the level of a Quasi-Supreme.
This power should not be underestimated no matter where.
"Gu Changge …" Jiang Luoshen's dissatisfied voice came, interrupting Gu Changge's thoughts.
"You lost again." Gu Changge glanced at her casually. "You're willing to admit defeat?"
Jiang Luoshen gritted her teeth, then silently walked over and began to massage his shoulders.
It had to be said that practice makes perfect.
After a period of time, she became familiar with this technique, unlike at the beginning where she was neither gentle nor heavy.
Her white and flawless hands fell on his shoulders, full of beauty. Her golden hair hung down, as brilliant as the sun, and there was a pleasant and elegant fragrance.
"Well, it seems that you're not stupid. You finally learned." Gu Changge smiled.
Jiang Luoshen looked at him coldly, then rolled her eyes.
She didn't expect that with her identity, there would be a day when she really learned how to serve others.
In the past, this was simply a fantasy story.
"Then when are you going to learn how to warm the bed?" Gu Changge asked with interest.
Hearing this, Jiang Luoshen's delicate white neck turned a little red.
It was like the best mutton fat jade, and even the pale golden blood vessels could be seen.
The blood of the Great Void Divine Clan was golden and contained incomparable divinity.
However, her expression was still cold and didn't change much. She sneered, "Gu Changge, I told you not to force me to do this kind of thing. Otherwise, I'll fight you to the death."
Hearing this, Gu Changge's tone was a little helpless and regretful, but he didn't force her. "Is that so? You're so beautiful, it's a pity that you don't warm the bed. "
Jiang Luoshen enjoyed hearing Gu Changge praise her beauty, but she felt that there was something wrong with his words.
Why was she beautiful? Did she have to warm the bed for him?
What kind of strange theory was this?
"Gu Changge, even if you praise me in another way, I won't agree to it."
Jiang Luoshen sneered.
"Is that so?"
Gu Changge smiled casually and said in a casual tone, "I'm not in a hurry anyway, and I remember you said the same thing before."
"But aren't you very familiar with it now?"
"You …"
Jiang Luoshen's expression froze and she suddenly felt a little flustered. Then, she said coldly, "How can you mix these two things together?"
Gu Changge smiled and didn't intend to continue teasing her.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
The big shots of the big families of the Nine Territories of the Demon Realm all came to participate in this year's Prodigy Banquet.
After all, this was a big event that only happened once every twenty years.
Almost all the big shots of the Demon Realm would come, especially Empress Xi Yao who came in person to give the Imperial Wine to the Prodigies who won the rankings.
This was an unimaginable honor for the young prodigies.
Not only would they be able to show off at this banquet and become famous in the world, but if they were recognized by Empress Xi Yao, they would be promoted and bring glory to their family.
Moreover, it was said that Gu Changge would also come to this year's Prodigy Banquet to watch the ceremony and give the Prodigies who won the rankings a good luck.
Under the many rumors, countless creatures of the Demon Realm were attracted to come.
Many people came just to take a look at Gu Changge's true appearance. They wanted to see who this famous figure in the Upper Realm was.
The Black-White Academy had a vast territory that covered hundreds of thousands of kilometers.
Among them, the mountain ridges were towering, immortal birds flapped their wings, and auspicious beasts roared. It was a scene of an immortal paradise.
The most majestic mountain range there was the Sacred Mountain of the Black-White Academy.
Back then, it was said to be the mountain that suppressed the Dragon Vein of Fate within a radius of a million kilometers. Immortal fog lingered around it, and multicolored light shone down. It was dazzling and astonishing.
Now, many figures had appeared near the mountain range.
Men, women, old, and young, regardless of their cultivation base, all flocked over to occupy the most advantageous terrain.
In addition, the prodigies of the various races and factions had gathered. It wasn't just the disciples of the Black-White Academy, but also the disciples of the other factions.
As the name suggested, the Prodigy Banquet was an opportunity for all the prodigies of the Demon Realm to leap over the dragon gate.
Anyone of the younger generation had the qualifications to participate in this banquet.
At this moment, a man and a woman were hurrying along a small path in the mountain range. The man was dressed in hemp clothes and carried a basket on his back. He looked like a medicine farmer.
The woman beside him was also dressed in hemp clothes. Her face was sallow and even somewhat ugly.
However, her figure was incomparably impressive. Every inch of her body exuded astonishing charm. Many young men who passed by couldn't help but secretly look over. Then, their expressions changed drastically, and they quickly left, feeling somewhat disgusted.
"Sister Lian 'er, do you think we'll be able to find the person Master talked about this time?"
The man with the basket on his back spoke at this moment, his voice filled with curiosity.
Hearing this, the woman glanced at him indifferently and said, "If we can't find him here, then we won't be able to find him in the vast Demon Realm. Also, my intuition tells me that he'll definitely do something bold here."
"Then after we give him the item, can we go back and save Master …?"
The man's eyes were filled with hope.
The woman shook her head slightly and didn't say anything else.
The two were the owners of the Spring Breeze Jasper Pavilion, Bai Lian 'er and Bai Hua. They had left the Upper Realm and were heading to the Demon Realm to complete the White Kun mission.
Then, the two rushed to the area where the Sacred Mountain was and began to occupy the most advantageous terrain with the crowd.
Many prodigies with powerful auras had already been waiting at the foot of the mountain. They were all looking forward to it.
This Prodigy Banquet was watched by millions of creatures of the Demon Realm. It could be said to be the center of attention.
Buzz!!
At this moment, a dazzling light suddenly appeared in the sky, immediately attracting everyone's attention.
A Great Path extended out, directly connecting to the Sacred Mountain.
There were four beautiful women on the path, holding pens, ink, paper, and inkstones. They walked gracefully like fairies from the Nine Heavens.
"It's the four female officials by Empress Xi Yao's side."
"They're here. Her Majesty should be here soon too."
Many creatures were even more excited when they saw this scene. They recognized the identities of the four women.
Near the Sacred Mountain, many figures began to appear. They all brought their families and a large number of people to sit in the guest area of the banquet.
Many people found that the Demon Realm's army patrolling around the Sacred Mountain this time was several times more than before.
Many powerful Knights were patrolling the area. If they discovered any unusual living beings, they would immediately go to kill them.
At this time, they had to ensure the safety of Her Majesty.
Although her cultivation was very strong, it wasn't to the point where she was invincible. There was no problem with being cautious.
Very quickly, the Heaven's Favorites of the Demon World appeared one after another. They were all the most powerful cultivators of this generation. Instantly, they attracted the attention of many people.
A beautiful woman in a light yellow dress also appeared at the foot of the Sacred Mountain. She was generous and had the scholarly aura of a noble lady. 4.2
Song Youwei, the only daughter of the current Grand Tutor.
Her appearance immediately attracted the attention of many Heaven's Favorites. Their gazes all fell upon her. Their gazes were filled with shock, admiration, admiration, fear …
"Grand Tutor, your daughter is so stunning at such a young age. I'm so envious."
The Heaven Conqueror laughed and joked with the Grand Tutor next to him. His tone was still respectful.
The Grand Tutor chuckled. "You flatter me. But I heard that your third son is also someone not to be underestimated. In a short period of time, he shocked the world with a single brilliant feat. He's been in hiding for more than a decade. Now that he's reappeared, the world knows him. Youwei has mentioned him many times in front of me."
The Heaven Conqueror's joy deepened.
He never thought that his third son, who was unpopular and mediocre in cultivation, would have such a day.
It didn't matter if he hid his strength and bided his time or if he had other opportunities. To him, as long as he was proud, it didn't matter.
At this moment, the Heaven Conqueror was even more tempted. Song Youwei didn't have any marriage restrictions, and she seemed to have a good relationship with his third son. They were quite compatible.
If he could match the two of them, it would be a good thing for him.
While the two were talking, a figure in the distance descended. He was wearing a blue robe, had a handsome face, and a tall figure. He was confident and calm. It was Jun Fan.
He looked around with a faint smile on his face, but he was sneering in his heart. "Xiyao, this day has come. Are you ready?"
Right at this moment, a roar that shook the entire area suddenly came from high up in the sky.
Then, nine qilin-like auspicious beasts came across the sky. Their hooves stomped on the void, making the sound of wind and thunder.
Behind it was a black jade carriage that rumbled as it crushed through the horizon. It was ferocious and shockingly vast.
Behind the carriage was a mighty army of knights. They were either riding chariots or ferocious beasts.
"Her Majesty is here."
It was unknown who cried out in alarm. Following that, practically everyone turned their gazes over with reverence in their eyes.
