The disciple hurriedly replied, "I wouldn't dare to speak nonsense. When I went down the mountain to investigate, I heard the people in the city spreading rumors that the Qing Dynasty had fallen and the Ming Dynasty had returned! Even the Qing Emperor Nurhaci had been killed!"
"What did you say?"
Bai Su stood up and said, "Nurha is dead? Who killed him? He should have died by my hand!"
With a wave of his hand, Bai Su caused the surrounding rocks to shatter and the entire cave to shake!
The disciple hurriedly said, "Master, please calm down! Master's divine skills are unparalleled, you will surely be able to kill Nurhaci! But I heard that Nurhaci was killed by a man named Lin Caogen, and now he has become the new monarch! I heard that he not only burned down the palace, but also killed ninety percent of the former Qing officials! I heard all this from the people in the city!"
Upon hearing the name Lin Caogen, Bai Su was momentarily stunned and remained in a daze for a long time!
"Master! Master!" the disciple called out several times, but Bai Su did not respond!
Just then, a man slowly walked over and said, "Girl! It's highly likely that Junior Brother Lin really has returned! Whether it's true or not, we'll find out by going to the palace!"
The speaker was Fang Xiaoru, who was now at the first star of the Nascent Soul stage! He was considered a top fighter in the White Grass Sect! However, it would still be difficult for him and Bai Su to break into the palace and kill Nurha! Just as the two were cultivating day and night, they never expected that Nurha would already be dead!
"Brother Fang! Could this be Nurha's faked death? Is it just to lure us there?"
Fang Xiaoru said, "It's alright! We are both now at the Nascent Soul stage, and you have broken through to the second star today! Let's go to the imperial city to find out what's going on! Even if there's a trap, it won't be difficult for the two of us to escape!"
Bai Su nodded and said, "Alright! Brother Fang, let's set off now! I really hope this news is true! It's a pity that Sister Meiniang will never see Brother Lin again!"
Fang Xiaoru said, “You don’t need to be sad! Everything is predestined! Meiniang was originally suffering from cold poison. If it weren’t for Junior Brother Lin’s bowl of blood saving her, she would probably have died a hundred years ago! Junior Brother Lin extended Meiniang’s life by seventy years, allowing her to be the queen for seventy years. That’s worth it! I’ve been studying the Heavenly Dao and the Book of Changes recently. In fact, a person’s fate is already predetermined. No matter how you try to change it, it’s difficult to defy the Heavenly Dao. Temporary defying fate may be possible, but long-term defying fate will inevitably be condemned by the Heavenly Dao. Alright, let’s set off!”
Bai Su nodded and said, "Okay! Thank you so much, Brother Fang, for staying with me all these years. If it weren't for you, Brother Fang, I really wouldn't have been able to hold on!"
Fang Xiaoru laughed and said, "We're all family! You're Junior Brother Lin's wife, so it's my responsibility to take good care of you! I was also at fault for Meiniang's death; I failed to persuade her! Alas!"
