"What!?" Yun Yun's voice suddenly rose eight octaves. It's no wonder she lost her composure; the news was simply too shocking. Among the assassins was the renowned and powerful Blue Moon Immortal Venerable.
Even ordinary immortals cannot defeat Lan Yue, let alone Zhou Qingfeng, a true immortal.
"He... killed Lan Yue? How did he kill her?" Yun Yun asked in disbelief.
General Qin seemed to recall the previous scene, and the complex look in his eyes lingered for a long time: "One move, he killed the Blue Moon Immortal Venerable in an instant with just one move, and also told her fortune."
Yun Yun: "......."
At this moment, her mind was completely in turmoil. She never expected that Fang Xiu could kill Lan Yue Immortal Venerable, and in such a way, with a single move.
If it were said that Fang Xiu secretly poisoned and killed Lan Yue Immortal Venerable, she could barely accept it, after all, Fang Xiu had a history of poisoning and killing Master Tianwen.
To kill a Celestial Venerable Realm expert in a single moveāsuch terrifying strength, could it be... an Immortal Emperor?
The more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed, because she herself was a Celestial Venerable, while Fang Xiu's realm was only True Immortal. The fact that the other party could deceive her meant that the other party's realm was higher than hers, didn't it?
An Immortal Emperor is a top figure in any power. Even as a princess, she always treats the Immortal Emperor with utmost respect and courtesy.
If a prince or princess can gain the support of one more Celestial Emperor, their chances of ascending the throne will greatly increase. Ultimately, the decisive factor in ascending the throne is who has more Celestial Emperors.
Currently, Yun Yun only has one Celestial Emperor supporting her, and that is her uncle, the Prince of Zhennan.
Now that Fang Xiu has joined the group, she should be happy, but she can't feel happy at all.
A Celestial Emperor who had concealed his cultivation was lurking beside him; he certainly didn't seem like someone who had come to seek refuge.
Only now did Yun Yun finally understand why Fang Xiu dared to kill Master Tianwen right in front of her; it turned out that he didn't care at all.
"Hoo." Yun Yun took a deep breath, suppressing the complex emotions in her heart, dismissed the crowd, and walked alone into the depths of the palace where Fang Xiu was.
Soon, she met Fang Xiu.
At this moment, Fang Xiu was sitting upright on the high platform, his eyes closed, concentrating on his cultivation.
Yun Yun gave him a complicated look, her lips parted slightly several times, but she didn't know what to say. After a moment, a resolute look flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she solemnly said, "Inspector Zhou, I heard from General Qin that you personally killed Immortal Venerable Lan Yue, and you only used one move."
"I never expected that you, who had always displayed the cultivation of a True Immortal, were actually a Celestial Emperor."
Fang Xiu continued his cultivation with his eyes closed, ignoring Yun Yun. He had just learned a lot about the Time Mark from the Blue Moon Immortal Venerable, so he naturally wanted to seize the time to condense it and not waste a single moment.
Seeing that Fang Xiu did not answer, Yun Yun remained silent for a moment before continuing, "Actually, I should have thought of it long ago. How could you, a True Immortal, dare to kill someone in front of the Prince of Zhennan and the Princess? As a True Immortal, even if your divination skills are powerful, without strong cultivation to support you, how could you have been telling fortunes for others for a year without interruption?"
She paused, then her gaze sharpened: "Inspector Zhou, what is your purpose in hiding your cultivation and staying by my side?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a tremendous force acting on her neck. It was a large hand that gripped her fair and delicate neck tightly, and blue veins were squeezed out and emerged from under her skin.
Yun Yun's pupils suddenly contracted as she stared in disbelief at Fang Xiu in front of her. Just a second ago, he was cultivating with his eyes closed, but the next second he appeared right in front of her.
The terrifying speed left Yun Yun no time to react.
She instinctively wanted to resist, but when she met Fang Xiu's calm eyes, her heart tightened and alarm bells went off!
A terrifying sense of life and death enveloped her.
No... I can't move! I'll die! I'll really die!
A voice deep inside Yun Yun told her that she must not act rashly, or she would be killed in the next moment.
At this moment, Fang Xiu's calm voice rang in Yun Yun's ear: "Were you... questioning me just now?"
"Zhou... Zhou Qingfeng, what do you want to do! I advise you not to be impulsive. This is the Liuyun Immortal Dynasty, and I am a princess of the Liuyun Immortal Dynasty. Even if you are an Immortal Emperor, you will never escape the Liuyun Immortal Dynasty if you kill me!"
"Don't worry, you're still useful to me, I won't kill you."
Yun Yun regained her composure slightly. "What exactly is your purpose? A Celestial Emperor is lurking by my side. Who sent you? The Second Prince, or the Fourth Prince...?"
Snap!
A large smear was smeared on Yun Yun's delicate face.
The slap stunned her, and she stared blankly at Fang Xiu for a long time.
As a princess, she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. From childhood to adulthood, wherever she went, she received awe and praise. When had she ever been slapped?
"Don't drag me into your childish palace intrigues. As for my purpose, I've already told you before: fortune telling. I don't care whether you believe in it or not, or what your thoughts or plans are. Just remember, never disturb my fortune telling, or even if you hide in the palace, I can still kill you."
After saying that, Fang Xiu released his hand and put Yun Yun down.
Yun Yun silently stared at Fang Xiu, trying to decipher his words. This man seemed to be obsessed with fortune telling, and it seemed that everything he did from beginning to end revolved around fortune telling. Could this be his true purpose?
