"Your Majesty, rest assured, we will do our utmost to await your return!"
Upon hearing this, tears welled up in the eyes of all the generals, and they raised their right hands and struck their left chests heavily, making a firm promise with unwavering expressions.
"kindness."
Standing outside the tent, the Empress looked around the camp one last time before quickly leaving.
The Empress chose the Bu Jiang Dynasty first.
Because of You Ciren's previous espionage, the detailed map of the Bujiang Dynasty had already reached the Empress's hands, including the structure and routes of the palace.
Therefore, if one wanted to take action, it would be more convenient for the Jiang people than for the Western Zhou Dynasty.
Furthermore, the grudges between the Wuya Dynasty and Bujiang were irreconcilable, while the conflict on the Western Zhou side was merely due to the female members of the Ji family.
As long as the war doesn't end with the Western Zhou, there's still hope that they can turn hostility into friendship if the Western Zhou provides sufficient compensation.
Even if they can't, there are still Lord Yu and his men. They are a very important hidden piece that might play an unexpected role at a crucial moment.
Therefore, after comprehensive analysis, the Queen felt that killing King Bu Jiang first was the best option.
At the Empress's current speed, it would only take three days to travel from the border to the capital of the Bujiang Dynasty.
After arriving in the capital, she hid in the suburbs during the day and did not take any action. Instead, she waited until nightfall before leaping over the city gate and sneaking into the palace.
The Empress's current cultivation level is equivalent to that of a Celestial Being, and she is even much stronger than an ordinary Celestial Being.
In terms of one-on-one combat, apart from Jun Feijue, the only other person in the entire dynasty who could rival her was Emperor Moyu. If they didn't use their trump cards, they might not be her match.
Therefore, relying on the route in her memory, the Queen made no obstacles along the way and quickly found the palace of the King of Bujiang.
Upon seeing the two guards standing ramrod straight, a hint of disdain flashed in the Queen's eyes. She unleashed a palm strike, aiming to wrap around their necks.
"Click..."
Soon, two crisp sounds were heard, and the necks of the two guards snapped, and they fell to the ground dead.
Upon seeing this, the Empress immediately slipped through the half-open door and hid inside.
However, the Queen did not see that after she left, two streams of black mist suddenly emerged from the mouths of the two dead guards, and the guards' bodies instantly turned into mummies.
"Damn humans."
One of the black mists let out a sharp, frenzied roar, "How dare you kill this demon! I'll use your body to possess your soul later!"
"Indeed, that human appears extremely powerful; he must be an excellent vessel!"
Another cloud of black mist let out a chilling laugh, "Fortunately, we've both possessed this body for over a decade, otherwise, we'd probably be severely damaged."
"This human, I, this demon, will make her suffer a terrible death!"
The first wisp of black mist said in a distorted voice, "Let her die in the most cruel way!"
After saying that, the two clouds of black mist flew swiftly into the hall.
This is the monarch's bedroom; they cannot allow a mere human to disturb His Majesty's rest.
After entering the palace, the Empress was very careful.
However, when she used her spiritual power to investigate, she was surprised to find that apart from the three people sleeping on the bed in the inner room, there was not a single maid in the palace.
And the three people lying on the bed, it was obvious without even thinking, were none other than King Jiang and his concubine.
With one dragon and two phoenixes, King Jiang really knows how to play the game, isn't he afraid of being drained dry?
