Chapter 406 I Have 100,000 Resentful Spirits

This night in the capital is destined to be uneasy.

It was almost dawn, and the sounds of cockroaches crowing in the capital were drowned out by the rattling of armor.

The news that Concubine Shu was assassinated by Lin Yu of the Shenxiao Sect spread quickly. As a result, without the common people knowing, a large number of troops were dispatched to search for the remnants of the Shenxiao Sect in the capital.

When the news reached Zhao Jing's ears, he was stunned.

He was preparing an ambush on people from the Shenxiao Sect in the Heavenly Prison. In order to capture Fang Yu and Lin Yu, the two Shenxiao Sect high-ranking people who were most likely to come to jailbreak, he specially transferred Zhao Feng, a worshiper of the Zhiming Realm, to help him. Zhao Feng had a good relationship with him and was a supporter of his faction. Of course, Zhao Feng would help in such a big event.

If he was outside the capital, let alone ambushing Fang Yu and Lin Yu, he would have to run away if he targeted any one of them. But when he arrived in the capital, he felt that he could do it again. The last time he was beaten badly by Lin Yu, Zhao Feng had been thinking about revenge!

As a result, I waited all night, but in vain.

Zhao Jing is such a jerk, the information he provided is obviously wrong!

The little princess Zhao Lingyu did collude with the Shenxiao Sect, but she was bolder than anyone thought.

"Damn it, I thought she fell into the trap, but it turned out to be me!"

Zhao Jing's face was full of regret. Now, he suddenly realized that Zhao Lingyu might have noticed his arrangement in the study, but she took advantage of the situation and lured him to set an ambush in the Tianlao. Then Zhao Lingyu made a feint to the east and attacked in the west, led people into the palace and killed Concubine Shu.

Zhao Jing knew very well that Concubine Shu and Zhao Lingyu had a bad relationship, but he didn't care.

They are all my tools. As long as they don’t make trouble, let them be!

I never thought that something like this would happen tonight.

"The Emperor has been assassinated, and the Concubine Shu has been assassinated. Your Highness should go to the palace as soon as possible!"

Zhao Feng's suggestion was to leave the Heavenly Prison as soon as possible. He had always thought that Lin Yu would not have any achievements in the capital, so he waited in the Heavenly Prison. But now, when he heard that Lin Yu was running rampant in the palace with only a sword, Zhao Feng was very scared.

He recalled the fear he felt when he was dominated by Lin Yu. That sword came with a gust of wind, followed by seven consecutive slashes. Lin Yu was fully capable of giving each of them a sword, but Lin Yu did not do so. He just killed Zhao Yuan.

The worshippers at that time all knew that Lin Yu was actually showing mercy.

After returning in disgrace, the emperor ordered the arrest of ordinary disciples of the Shenxiao Sect. The priests were afraid, but when they thought that it was an important place in the capital and Lin Yu could not get in, they were no longer panicked.

However, the fact is that Lin Yu has already arrived.

Zhao Jing didn't understand why Lin Yu wanted to kill Concubine Shu, but Zhao Feng roughly understood it.

Killing a concubine is insignificant, but the impact is huge. This must be what Lin Yu wanted to express.

There must have been other priests in the palace at that time, but they did not dare to attack Lin Yu, which must be because Lin Yu's cultivation was intimidating.

Only those who offer sacrifices understand offerings best.

Lin Yu and Fang Yu's ultimate goal must be to rescue people. In this case, they will definitely come to Tianlao.

Zhao Feng took Concubine Shu's death as a warning to Lin Yu and Fang Yu.

Now, how could he dare to stay in the Heavenly Prison to guard it?

Run away quickly!

But people live by their reputation. Although he was afraid of Lin Yu, as one of the top people in the Zhou Dynasty, his idol image was also very important.

You can be very scared in your heart, but you must not show cowardice on the surface.

Persuading Zhao Jing to return to the palace is a good idea. If Zhao Jing leaves, it would be reasonable for him to follow him.

I'm not afraid at all!

In fact, Lin Yu didn't have so many thoughts. It was purely luck. She went to kill the emperor, but failed to kill the emperor. She also smelled Lin Yun's scent beside Concubine Shu.

Of course, she didn't kill Concubine Shu just because of Lin Yun's scent, but because she really had a bad smell.

This happened after Lin Yu obtained the Gale Sword, and perhaps it was also the result of the further awakening of the White Tiger power.

She could smell the good and evil on people. Good people had a fragrance that made her feel comfortable, while evil people had a stench that made her feel nauseous and want to vomit.

For example, Fang Yu exudes a fragrance that makes Lin Yu want to get close to her. Even the fact that Fang Yu has feelings for Lin Yun does not make Lin Yu so angry.

The little princess also smells fragrant. She has never done anything evil. Although she is a little scheming, her heart is still pure and kind.

But she hadn't done many good deeds, so the fragrance on her body was not strong.

Then there is Concubine Shu.

When he saw her, Lin Yu almost vomited because she smelled so bad.

How many bad things has this person done!

So Lin Yu killed without mercy and left after killing, quickly and neatly.

Back to the topic, Zhao Feng wanted to run away, but Zhao Jing was unwilling to leave.

"The palace is heavily guarded. Father is the supreme ruler and is protected by the dragon veins, so nothing will happen to him. This might be a conspiracy of the Shenxiao Sect. They want us to lose our composure and go to the palace, so as to relax the guards of the prison. Maybe they are on their way to rob the prison now!"

Zhao Feng: “…”

Do you think you are the only smart one?

Since you can see it at a glance, why are you still staying in the Heavenly Prison?

Waiting to die?

"If that's the case, Your Highness should leave. A son of a wealthy family should not sit in the hall. The Jade Sword Immortal is very fierce. What if he hurts Your Highness? What should we do then?"

"Uncle Feng, since you are here, why should we be afraid of them?"

Zhao Jing was fearless, but Zhao Feng looked distressed.

If you want to die, why take me with you?

"Your Highness, please forgive me for speaking frankly. I am no match for Lin Yu. The Jade Sword Fairy killed Brother Yuan because she obtained the Heavenly Sword. Not only that, when the Jiuzhou Ding was suppressing her, a white tiger appeared, and the Jiuzhou Ding was lost because of this. Your Highness, Lin Yu is invincible."

Of course Zhao Jing also knew about the White Tiger. Since the Tianshenxiao Sect made such a big fuss, there were very few people who didn't know about it.

But Zhao Jing also has his reasons.

He looked at the worried Zhao Feng and said calmly, "Uncle Feng, don't worry. Do you know why the prison was built here?"

Zhao Feng shook his head, and Zhao Jing said seriously: "This involves a big secret of our royal family. Only my father and I know about this. Uncle Feng is loyal to the court, so it's okay for me to tell you."

Zhao Feng: “…”

My heart refuses!

There are many royal secrets. Zhao Feng is also of royal blood, but he belongs to the collateral line. Although he is a worshiper and has a high status, he does not have as much information as the direct line.

The more taboo the information is, the more dangerous it becomes the more you know about it.

However, Zhao Jing told Zhao Feng the whole secret like a bamboo tube pouring beans.

It turned out that the royal family built an underground city beneath the capital.

This is a huge project and it is not something that can be accomplished by just one royal generation.

The ancestors of the Zhao family felt that cultivators were truly terrifying. The top cultivators could go wherever they wanted, but if they were unhappy, they could just chop off the emperor's head. This was something that could happen.

The ancestors of the Zhao family felt very insecure, so under this circumstance, the Zhao family began the feat of building an underground city.

Zhao Jing couldn't explain exactly how the construction method of this underground city came about. After all, it had been passed down for so many generations, and many details were difficult to study.

In short, after the completion of this major project, the effect was immediately apparent.

The cultivators in the Destiny Realm can at most be weakened to the point where they are no different from ordinary people in the capital, while the cultivators in the imperial court can be greatly strengthened.

The reason is that this underground city has buried no less than 100,000 lives.

Not including cattle, sheep and other animals used for sacrifice, the number of people offering sacrifices alone was no less than 100,000.

None of the craftsmen came out of the dungeon. Not only that, the ashes of all the royal ancestors were placed in the center of the dungeon.

In fact, what can suppress the cultivators is not simply the power of the dragon veins, but a combination of dragon veins, vengeful spirits, Zhao's ashes, and so on. It is a unique power formed by the mixture of various forces.

The royal family became safer as a result. At least, when the emperor was sleeping, he only needed to arrange a priest with similar cultivation level to guard him. Assassins did not dare to cause trouble in the imperial city.

"Under this prison is where 100,000 people were buried and killed. Among these 100,000 people, there are 10,000 boys, 10,000 girls, 10,000 pregnant girls, 10,000 mother-child pairs, 10,000 newlywed couples, and 10,000 single-child father-child pairs. The prison was built here to back it up with the resentment of these 100,000 lives. This place is also the source of the power to suppress the capital."

When Zhao Feng heard this, he was completely dumbfounded.

I'm afraid it's a fake offering!

The royal family actually had such a thing, this is too...

Burial is the cruelest of all killing methods and is also the most likely to generate resentment. When a person dies, he does not die all at once, but slowly suffocates to death. During this process, the person is still alive and will suffer great pain, which is accompanied by resentment.

Moreover, these 100,000 creatures were not selected randomly.

Ten thousand for each boy and girl, this one is put in the front and is actually the least cruel combination.

Ten thousand pregnant women, one corpse and two lives, pregnant women and unborn children were buried, newlyweds, at the happiest time, were buried and killed, ten thousand pairs of mothers and children, ten thousand pairs of single fathers and children...

Zhao Feng seemed to see such a scene: a helpless pregnant woman kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, a newly married man and his apprentice protecting his wife, a mother protecting her child under her body...

Although he was a cultivator at the Fate Knowing Realm, Zhao Feng still felt a chill on his back.

Cruel, or only mortals can be cruel.

To be honest, his cultivation level in the realm of knowing destiny is just average. If he launches a killing move and kills 100,000 people in a densely populated area, it would only take about the time of an incense stick.

He might not feel much even if he killed 100,000 people, but he was horrified just by hearing Zhao Jing say that he had killed 100,000 people.

The most terrifying thing was the tone of Zhao Jing's voice. Zhao Feng could not hear any mercy in him.

Not only that, he seemed a little arrogant, as if he was proud that his ancestor could come up with such a brilliant idea.

"The resentment of 100,000 vengeful spirits is suppressed by the formation of the Heavenly Prison. There is also the Nine-Nine Coiled Dragon Formation, which can channel the resentment to the whole city. By borrowing the power of the human race's dragon veins, we can suppress the whole city. If Lin Yu dares to come, we only need to slightly change the formation, and shrink the power that suppresses the whole city to the Heavenly Prison. I'm afraid that even if Lin Yu is a cultivator in the Heaven-Defying Realm, it will be difficult for him to escape!"

Zhao Feng felt his mouth was a little dry, and he couldn't help but say weakly: "What if the formation is broken?"

ps: I checked this time.

I still owe 11 chapters, and I will finish them as soon as possible.
