Chapter 178 I am your uncle
There were only two eunuchs managing the Qingming Palace in the Yuanyang Palace again, but the two eunuchs did not do anything. Instead, they supervised a child who was over five years old, kneeling on the floor and mopping the floor.
The child is blind and relies entirely on his sense of touch and familiarity with the environment to clean the floor.
One of the eunuchs shouted in a sarcastic tone: "Hurry up, if you don't clean this hall today, don't even think about going to bed."
The child was silent and worked hard to wipe the floor. Sweat kept dripping onto the floor and was then wiped away by the rag in his hand.
His clothes had long been soaked with sweat. Because he was young and not very strong, after cleaning most of the hall, his hands and feet were already weak. Even when he stood up, his feet were shaking.
At this time, the light outside was falling. Two eunuchs saw two people suddenly appear. One of them immediately shouted, "Who are you? How dare you break into the palace!"
Qing Ling moved her fingers and a green wind flew by. The two eunuchs were fixed in place. Apart from seeing and hearing, they could not do anything else, not even moving their fingers.
Hearing the noise, the child immediately stopped what he was doing, listened nervously to the movement at the door, curled up with a panicked expression on his face.
"He is Yuan Ming." Qing Ling said calmly. After all, it was impossible for an old demon who had lived for nearly a thousand years to be easily moved by these things, unless they were directly related to him.
Zhou An rushed forward quickly and reached out to touch Yuan Ming's head.
Yuan Ming dodged in panic and said in a panic, "Ming'er has been working very hard to clean the floor. The hall is too big and Ming'er is the only one here. Ming'er hasn't had dinner yet and has been cleaning the floor. He will definitely finish it tonight. Don't hit Ming'er again."
Hearing this, Zhou An's cheeks trembled and his breathing became a little disordered. He threw the rag away from Yuan Ming's hand and hugged him in his arms. He could feel the child in his arms trembling with fear.
"Ming'er, I'm your uncle, your mother's biological brother. I'm sorry that your uncle came late and made you suffer in the past few years. Now go back to Qianyuan with your uncle, and your uncle will take good care of you."
Zhou An said this with heartache, but his eyes were already spewing flames. A terrifying aura of pressure appeared, and even Qing Ling felt frightened and stood at the door not daring to disturb him.
"Uncle... Uncle! Who is my uncle?" Yuan Ming looked confused, but he could feel that Zhou An treated him differently. He liked Zhou An's embrace very much. It was the first time someone had hugged him since he could remember.
Zhou An was shocked and angry again. Yuan Ming had never received any education and probably had never left the palace, so he had no idea about the interpersonal relationships and titles, and he might not even have met many people.
He took a deep breath and picked up Yuan Ming, only to see that his eyeballs had been dug out. The wound had not been treated but had healed on its own. His eye sockets looked ugly, even horrifying, and were eroded.
This made him even angrier. He hugged Yuan Ming, touched his eyes very carefully, and said in a controlled tone, "Ming'er, uncle will seek justice for you."
Yuan Ming was a little scared and didn't dare to show his emotions. He curled up in his arms without moving.
He looked at the two eunuchs who were pinned down, walked up to them and asked in a cold voice: "Did the Queen of Yuanyang Kingdom or the Emperor ask you to do this? Or did both of them have a hand in this? Tell me."
Qing Ling lifted the immobilization spell, but the two eunuchs could not withstand Zhou An's murderous aura. They were so scared that their bodies went limp. They knelt on the ground with horror on their faces. They opened their mouths several times, but no sound came out.
Zhou An was too lazy to waste time with the two men, so he directly used the Demonic Soul Devourer. Black demonic energy shot out from his fingers, wrapped around the two men's foreheads, and devoured their souls in the blink of an eye, reading their memories.
These two men were Queen Kanglan's men. Their purpose was to torture Yuan Ming, but they couldn't let him die. If Yuan Ming died, the two eunuchs would die with him. However, Yuan Ming couldn't have an easy life, otherwise these two men would be treated miserably.
Zhou An said in a cold voice: "Qing Ling, have your people seal off the palace. No one is allowed to leave. Anyone who violates the rules will be killed."
"Yes." Qing Ling responded, flew out of the hall, let out a long roar, and called his demon generals hiding in the dark to surround the palace.
Their action alarmed the masters of the imperial palace, but they were all acquired warriors. Even if they were at the tenth level of acquired warriors, they could be defeated in just one move by these demon generals.
In the palace where the queen lived, Queen Kanglan was lying on a recliner, having two eunuchs give her a massage.
Zhou An showed up in front of her without hiding anything. The eunuchs and palace maids were all shocked. One eunuch immediately shouted, "Who are you? How dare you break into the Queen's bedroom? Capture this thief."
Zhou An ignored these people, looked at Queen Kanglan, touched Yuan Ming and said: "Ming'er, the one in front of you is Queen Kanglan. She ordered you to be tortured, and she also ordered the eunuchs to kill your mother.
Now, uncle will make her live a life worse than death. You see... just listen to uncle and seek justice for you and your mother."
Kang Lan was surprised when she saw the person coming. These eunuchs didn't know the person until they left the palace, but she could tell who the man in the dragon robe in front of her was.
There is only one person in the world who dares to wear the Qianyuan dragon robe, and this person claims to be Yuan Ming's uncle, so his identity is self-evident.
Kang Lan didn't expect that Emperor Qianyuan would come here in person. Of course, she also knew what had happened in Qianyuan recently. She had also heard that Emperor Qianyuan was a cultivator and was very powerful.
She shouted in panic, "Go and ask the Imperial Master for help."
Zhou An swept his sleeves, and the palace masters who rushed over were directly blown away by his true energy, crashed through the palace wall, and fell outside, with their bones shattered and their meridians severed.
Then Zhou An stretched out his hand, sucked the queen in front of him, and slapped her in the face with the least amount of force. The queen fell to the ground and slid more than a meter before stopping. Half of her teeth were broken and her face quickly swelled up.
"Haha, Emperor Qianyuan, even if you kill me, he will be a cripple, and that bitch Zhou Xianyun will not survive. You don't know what she looked like before she died. I tortured her beyond recognition, and she even begged me to let go of that bastard Yuan Ming.
Even if you are the emperor, all those who deserve to die are dead. You are just killing me to vent your anger.
It won't be long before my son will lead the coalition forces of the five states to crush Qianyuan. At that time, I will hang your head on the city wall and despise you by the world, haha." Kang Lan was not afraid at all. After the initial panic, he laughed crazily and ignored the pain on his body.
"I will personally let you experience what hell is like."
Zhou An waved his hand, and the Haotian Tower flew out, taking her inside. Then he said to the Haotian Tower: "Whoever can torture this girl until she begs for mercy, I will let him out of the tower. Remember, you can only torture her, not kill her. If she dies, everyone on the entire floor will be buried with her."
Zhou An's voice was heard by all the monsters and ghosts on the first floor of Haotian Tower. These guys have lived for thousands of years, and their methods of torturing people would definitely surprise Kang Lan.
The palace maids and eunuchs who had no martial arts skills huddled in the corner trembling with fear, watching the queen being taken away. Although they were just ordinary people, they knew that they were immortal cultivators and did not dare to make any unusual movements.
Zhou An ignored these people and used his escape technique again to arrive in front of the emperor's palace.
As soon as he appeared, the voice of Taoist Yuan Zhen was heard from above: "Emperor Qianyuan, you have dealt with the Queen, and you can take Yuan Ming away too. Do you want to destroy the entire palace?"
