"……What's the meaning?"
Yue Zu narrowed his eyes dangerously, and his whole body was filled with a dangerous aura, as if he was going to teach Bai Ying a lesson if she couldn't tell what was wrong.
Should she say it?
Specifically, would Yue Zu believe her if she told him the truth? If not, how could she convince him?
Bai Ying bit her lower lip, and after a moment's thought, she spoke frankly, "I'm telling you the truth! Dennis and his men have already planted explosives on the mountain. As soon as the coronation ceremony takes place tomorrow, the explosives will be detonated, and everyone waiting on the sacred mountain will die!"
As soon as the words fell, the expressions of everyone in the hall changed in unison.
If what Bai Ying said was true, then no one would be able to bear the consequences. They certainly didn't want to see their homeland destroyed like this...
After a moment of silence, Yue Zu's loud laughter suddenly rang out in the hall. "Hahaha... Don't scare me. What kind of explosives can blow up such a huge mountain? Besides, Dennis and the others are also on the mountain. Can they blow themselves up too?"
Bai Ying had long anticipated that Yue Zu might not believe her. She didn't panic, but instead spoke with reason and evidence, "Every word I say is absolutely true. I believe you must have someone monitoring their movements. If you don't believe me, you can call the person who was assigned to monitor Dennis last night and ask him if he dug up the soil and buried anything there."
Although she spoke with certainty, she was still a little nervous.
Bai Ying wasn't sure whether Yue Zu had sent anyone to keep an eye on Dennis, but judging from what Niu Huahua had told them last night that there was no one in the North Courtyard, Yue Zu and the others were not completely unaware of Dennis's movements.
However, they probably didn't guess that Dennis would dare to bury explosives.
Perhaps Bai Ying really hit the nail on the head when Yue Zu heard this. Upon hearing this, she no longer ridiculed Bai Ying as she did before. Instead, she raised her hand and called someone over, whispering a few words to them.
Soon, the man left the hall.
After a while, the man brought Wang Tiejun into the hall.
"Left Guardian pays homage to the Goddess!"
Wang Tiejun saluted Yue Zu in a very formal manner, as if he was worshipping Yue Zu like an emperor.
This appearance made Bai Ying, who was used to Wang Tiejun's villainous and ambitious style, very uncomfortable. Is this still the Wang Tiejun they know?
This is really too flattering.
Wang Tiejun didn't expect to see Bai Ying and He Shiwen here, especially since He Shiwen was not in a coma. This made a hint of surprise flash in his eyes, and he began to doubt the intention of Yue Zu calling him here.
"May I ask what the goddess is calling me for?" Wang Tiejun asked tentatively.
Yue Zu got straight to the point: "This girl insists that Dennis and his men planted explosives on the mountain last night. Did you see it?"
"this……"
Wang Tiejun frowned and fell into deep thought.
He did see Dennis leading people to dig the soil and seemed to be burying something in the soil.
But if it wasn't dynamite, he wouldn't know.
In his opinion, the buried object was so small that even if it was dynamite, it could only be used as a firecracker, right? Could it really flatten the mountain?
Because he didn't take it seriously, Wang Tiejun simply didn't come back to report the situation to Yue Zu.
Unexpectedly, Yue Zu summoned him the next day to inquire about this matter...
Needless to say, it must be related to Bai Ying.
"If you have it, you have it. If you don't have it, you don't have it. What's there to hide?" Yue Zu couldn't stand Wang Tiejun's hesitation and scolded him.
Wang Tiejun quickly lowered his head. "Goddess, I did follow that group of distinguished guests out of the temple last night, and they did go dig in a vacant lot, but I didn't see them bury anything, let alone explosives."
"Impossible! You're lying!"
Bai Ying retorted subconsciously.
Shen Ao also went there and saw with his own eyes that Dennis and the others buried something in the soil. Why didn't Wang Tiejun see it?
Wang Tiejun immediately turned to look at Bai Ying and taunted her, "Young lady, I'm the Goddess's servant. Why would I lie to her? I'm telling the truth. But you, young lady, how did you know the distinguished guests were digging outside the temple?"
"you……"
Bai Ying opened her eyes slightly wide, she didn't expect that Wang Tiejun would actually frame her.
He Shiwen was so angry that she jumped up and down. "Wang Tiejun, you piece of shit! You framed us just because you have a problem with us! Goddess, you can't believe his nonsense!"
"I don't trust my own people, so how can I trust you?"
After Yue Zu finished speaking, he clapped his hands and said, "Come here, drag these two daring guys down!"
Outside the hall, several strong female guards immediately came forward, grabbed Bai Ying and He Shiwen and tried to drag them away.
While Bai Ying couldn't stop retreating, she warned him stubbornly, "Tomorrow! The explosives will explode tomorrow. Just wait and see!"
"Then I'll wait."
Yue Zu smiled briefly, then his expression suddenly darkened. "But it's clear you won't see the sun tomorrow. Hurry up and drag these two spies out and kill them!"
"yes!"
Several female guards responded in unison.
“…”
Bai Ying and He Shiwen were both stunned.
I didn’t expect that Yue Zu, this charlatan, would actually dare to kill people?
It seems that she is really addicted to being an emperor...
"Goddess, please don't kill them!" Niu Huahua advised from the side, "Tomorrow is your coronation ceremony. It would be a bad idea to start a massacre now, wouldn't it?"
