Hua Shang's fear intensified upon hearing Sheng Wanwan's words.
She finally realized that this seemingly harmless little girl was actually someone she couldn't fight against.
Her resentment and bitterness seemed so powerless at this moment.
However, Hua Shang was unwilling to die like this. She struggled, trying to find a sliver of possibility for survival.
She looked at the envoys of the Great Liang Kingdom around her, hoping that they would help her out of consideration for her past as the Holy Maiden of the Great Liang Kingdom.
However, all she saw were expressions of anger and disgust on their faces.
They weren't fools. When they saw some vengeful ghosts dressed as fishermen from the Great Liang Kingdom burst out of Hua Shang's body and roar as they charged towards Hua Shang to seek revenge, what didn't they understand?
Rumor has it that Hua Shang subdued the giant python that was causing trouble in the North Sea, but in reality, the giant python was Hua Shang's contracted beast.
She allowed her contracted beast to devour people in the North Sea, and then appeared as a savior, which made her famous and turned her into a saint.
But think about it carefully, what has the Holy Maiden done for the Great Liang Kingdom all these years, besides supposedly subduing the monsters of the North Sea?
There was actually nothing there!
The Great Liang Kingdom suffered a natural disaster, and the people begged her to bring rain, but she always tried to find ways to make excuses. Now it seems that she was not powerful enough to bring rain on a large scale!
Their proud saintess turned out to be a swindler and a wicked devil. This is utterly ridiculous!
Thinking of this, the envoys from the Great Liang Kingdom looked at Hua Shang struggling on the ground, a hint of contempt flashing in their eyes. Their former admiration for Hua Shang had vanished at this moment, leaving only deep disappointment and anger.
At this moment, Hua Shang was too weak to say anything more.
She could only watch helplessly as the vengeful ghosts surrounded her, their sharp claws tearing at her body time and time again.
"Ah—" Hua Shang let out another shrill scream. Her body had been torn to shreds by the vengeful ghosts and was covered in blood.
However, this was not the end. The vengeful spirits, filled with boundless hatred, tore at her body again and again, chewing the shredded flesh they tore off.
Hua Shang's agonizing screams echoed through the Imperial Garden, sending chills down the spines of everyone around.
Moments later, Hua Shang was covered in wounds and barely breathing. Her eyes were filled with fear and despair. She had once been so high and mighty, so arrogant, but now she was like a lamb to the slaughter, powerless to resist.
Finally, amidst a series of piercing screams, Hua Shang's aura vanished completely.
Her mangled body lay silently on the ground, no longer moving. The vengeful spirits, having taken their revenge, pounced on the ministers like a pack of wild beasts devoid of their own minds.
Seeing the vengeful ghost rushing towards them, the ministers panicked and fled in all directions.
Chaos erupted in the Imperial Garden, with screams and cries for help echoing throughout.
These vengeful spirits have been controlled by hatred, and they are now killing maniacs with no mercy. They will pounce on and tear apart any living creature they see, regardless of friend or foe.
At this moment, Sheng Wanwan drew talismans in the air again, silently chanting incantations.
With a wave of her small hand, a powerful light surged from her palm, instantly distorting the space in front of her and slowly forming a large black hole.
The black hole emitted a chilling aura, seemingly capable of devouring all light. The vengeful spirits that had been frantically attacking the ministers seemed to be drawn by some mysterious force after the black hole appeared, gradually ceasing their attacks and slowly turning towards it.
With a flick of her small hand, Sheng Wanwan seemed to unleash an irresistible suction force from within the black hole, drawing in all the vengeful ghosts.
This is the road to the underworld. The affairs of these vengeful spirits in this world are over; it is time to send them to where they belong.
As the last vengeful ghost was swallowed by the black hole, the Imperial Garden returned to tranquility.
The black hole slowly closed and finally disappeared, as if nothing had ever happened.
The moment the black hole disappeared, Sheng Wanwan's small body swayed, as if all her strength had been drained away.
She bit her lower lip tightly to prevent herself from collapsing from exhaustion. Using such strength was still too much for her at her current level.
Upon witnessing this scene, the ministers all stopped in their tracks, their initial expressions of fear transforming into deep respect.
They knew that it was this little girl who had saved them and the Great Yan Kingdom.
Si Mingye rushed to Sheng Wanwan's side immediately and steadily supported her.
"Wanwan, are you alright?" Si Mingye asked softly, his voice filled with undisguised anxiety.
"I'm fine, I'm just a little exhausted from running out of spiritual energy!"
Sheng Wanwan smiled, her voice slightly weak.
"It's good that you're alright!" Si Mingye reached out and gently rubbed the top of her soft hair, his eyes full of doting affection.
Upon hearing this, Si Nantian, Chu Xiuyuan, and all the ministers breathed a sigh of relief.
Sheng Wanwan is now the lifeblood of their Great Yan Kingdom. They cannot allow anything to happen to her, no matter what.
At this moment, Sheng Lingtian leaned closer to Sheng Wanwan with a loving expression.
"Wanwan, you've had a hard day. Shall Father take you home?"
Sheng Lingtian was extremely excited.
With this daughter, the Sheng family can enjoy wealth and honor no matter who wins in the future, whether it is Prince Rui or the Emperor.
After all, who wouldn't fawn over a daughter with such godlike abilities? And who would dare to provoke her?
Even if the fact that the Sheng family harbors rebellious intentions is exposed, who can touch the Sheng family?
Sheng Lingtian was overjoyed and even dared to ignore the secret warnings from Prince Rui's faction!
