Two figures stood at the gate of Yanping Prefecture. Jiang Zhou looked at the row of corpses beside them and trembled.

"The Empress killed many people, including Duan Ji."

Jiang Zhou looked around and finally saw the sign: "Could that be Duan Ji?"

He was not spared even after his death. His ashes were burned and made into a monument to remain infamous here for eternity. It was too tragic. However, if you count his crimes carefully, he deserved to die.

Lu Ling glanced at him teasingly: "If you are afraid, just leave."

Jiang Zhou shook his head: "No, I'm leaving now. Who will collect your body?"

Lu Ling: "...You really touched me. Don't worry, if you die, I will make you into a corpse puppet, and we will be brothers for life."

Jiang Zhou: "...No, we are brothers, just let me rest in peace."

The two waited for nearly half an hour before someone finally came out. He glanced up and down at Lu Ling's hand and said, "The Empress has ordered that you surrender all your accessories and be searched before you can see her."

Jiang Zhou didn't think there was anything wrong. After all, he was meeting the empress, so it was normal to search her body to prevent assassination.

Lu Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, but still handed over the jade pendant and bone flute.

Entering Yanping Prefecture, Jiang Zhou saw a clear division between the officers and soldiers. On one side, the soldiers were full of energy and high spirits, while on the other side, they were dejected and lifeless.

"What's going on?"

Lu Ling raised his eyes and said, "Didn't you receive the news? The Empress kicked out all the soldiers who disobeyed her. That's what you saw."

The empress's soldiers were famous for their good treatment, especially the Silver Armored Guards. Many soldiers were trying their best to get in.

Although ordinary soldiers are not as good as the Silver Armor Guards, the empress is definitely not an emperor who treats military generals badly.

These soldiers are so stupid that they want to leave the camp for the so-called loyalty.

But now that these people have calmed down, many of them probably regret their decision, but the empress will never give them another chance.

They went all the way to Prince Yanping's Mansion. Silver-armored guards were standing by at the door, ready for battle. As they went in, more and more people came, until they saw the empress.

The empress sat three meters away, with three layers of silver-armored guards in front of her.

One level pointed weapons at them, one level was on full alert, and one level was guarding the empress.

Jiang Zhou was shocked by this scene.

"Lu Ling, why is His Majesty so wary of you?"

Lu Ling's eyes were burning, and he could only see that figure. He replied nonchalantly: "Nothing, just trying to assassinate Her Majesty, who was still a princess, a few times. Of course, I didn't succeed."

Jiang Zhou looked at him in shock: Brother, do you want to hear what you are saying?

To say such outrageous words lightly would scare people to death.

Lu Ling straightened his clothes and bowed: "Lu Ling, I pay my respects to Your Majesty!"

Jiang Zhou: "Jiang Zhou, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

The silver-armored guards slowly moved to both sides, leaving the middle passage.

"Lu Ling..."

The empress's cold voice came from above: "Are you the one colluding with Duan Ji?"

Lu Ling: "No."

"Then why are you here?"

Lu Ling boasted: "I came here to help your majesty."

Share the worries?

It's a joke.

"You went to Taiping City and killed the wizard that Duan Ji had hidden. What was your intention?"

Lu Ling raised his head, his eyes obsessed, and spoke clearly: "That wizard is only half-baked. If Your Majesty wants to save people, I am more suitable than him."

The next moment he stood up and slowly stepped forward. The silver-armored guard's knife was pressed against his neck, but he didn't even look at it: "I am the only one who can cure the corpse poison. Your Majesty, are you sure you don't want me?"

Jiang Zhou's teeth were sore, eh~~~ Your Majesty, are you sure you don't want me?

Bro, do you know what you are talking about?

I feel like my brother will definitely not be able to get out alive today, and even his body won’t be able to get out.

If possible, Xiao Li didn't want to use Lu Ling, the pervert. This guy actually went to Taiping City to kill the person who could save Rong Qing. Xiao Li wanted to kill him now, but Rong Qing couldn't wait.

"Take him to see it."

If he can't be cured, chop him up and feed him to the fish.

Lu Ling was very disappointed that he couldn't get close to Xiao Li, but he still went to see him obediently.

Jiang Zhou followed closely, without saying a word, acting as an invisible man.

He now felt that both of them were doomed to die, but he would follow his brother even in death, so that he would have company as a ghost.

However, a moment later, Jiang Zhou regretted it.

Lu Ling went to see Rong Qing who was tied up. At this moment, Rong Qing had little sanity left.

He was unwilling to drink human blood, and animal blood had almost no effect. Now he was almost completely transformed into a corpse.

After seeing this, Lu Ling's first reaction was not to save people, but to admire.

“It’s absolutely perfect.”

"That half-baked fellow didn't have the skills, so he could only create something half-human, half-ghost. But Rong Qing drank human blood, and with a strong will, he completed the missing link of that useless fellow and became a successful corpse puppet."

"With this powerful physique, coupled with his powerful kung fu in life, this is definitely the most powerful Corpse Puppet King."

He said excitedly, "Your Majesty, how about I help you turn him into a complete corpse puppet? He will never die or decay, and will be loyal only to you. While he's still alive, he might still retain some consciousness. Corpses are much more obedient and loyal than living people."

Jiang Zhou: ...Brother is seeking death, he has nothing to say.

Xiao Li only answered him with one arrow, which missed the target, but the next one was aimed at his head.

"Okay, okay, I get it."

Lu Ling had no choice but to let Rong Qing examine him honestly, and after a while he gave her a solution.

"He's not completely dead, so it's easy to keep him alive. But I have to take him away for a month. I'll return him to you in a month, and I promise he'll be alive and kicking."

Xiao Li did not agree. To put it bluntly, she did not trust Lu Ling at all. What if he completely turned Rong Qing into a corpse puppet? Wouldn't she have to personally have someone turn Rong Qing into a pool of blood?

Lu Ling was also helpless. In the eyes of the empress, he had no credibility at all.

Then he pushed Jiang Zhou out: "Your Majesty, I am leaving my best brother here."

Jiang Zhou bit his teeth so hard that they were broken: "Lu Ling, don't go too far..."

Lu Ling laughed maliciously: "Jiang Zhou, look at the empress, does she look familiar to you?"

Jiang Zhou: “?”

He had never seen the empress before, so how could she look familiar?

Then the empress came over.

The Silver-Armored Guard was afraid that Lu Ling would hurt Xiao Li, so he followed her closely. In fact, Xiao Li was not afraid of him. No one was worthy of her fear.

"Lu Ling." She looked at Lu Ling's face. She could hardly remember what Lu Yanzhi looked like, so this face could not arouse her emotions.

A scum who turned to ashes is not worth her remembering for so long.

"You can give me the person, but I want him alive and intact."

Xiao Li didn't need to say any threatening words, but just looked at him with those cold and ruthless eyes, with a murderous look on his face, which was very impressive.

She is the empress and has plenty of ways to torture a person who does not keep his promise.

Shrouded in this murderous intent of death, Lu Ling's entire body trembled, his eyes filled with excitement and madness: "Your Majesty, rest assured, Lu Ling will definitely do what he says."
