Qin Tianyi, the confidant who had followed him for many years, was actually Li Lingge's man from the very beginning?
"Even you betrayed me!"
Zhao Lingyu's voice was mixed with anger, shock, and even a hint of fear that was difficult to conceal.
He stared at Qin Tianyi, trying to see a hint of hesitation or guilt in his eyes, but the other's eyes were as calm as water, without any ripples.
Li Lingge raised the corners of his mouth slightly and raised his fingertips lightly.
boom!
The gray chaotic divine fire suddenly ignited and instantly enveloped Zhao Lingyu's entire body.
What's even more terrifying is that this flame is not only burning his body, but also burning his luck, his fate, and all traces of his existence!
"No! I am destined to be one! I—"
Zhao Lingyu's roar came to an abrupt end, his sea of consciousness crumbled bit by bit in the flames, and his body turned to ashes, leaving no trace.
When the wind blew, the ashes flew away, as if he had never existed.
The second prince of the Tiansheng Dynasty died.
Li Lingge turned slowly and his eyes fell on Mo Xuan.
At that moment, the indifference in his eyes melted like ice and snow, replaced by a heart-throbbing tenderness.
He raised his hand and waved it, and the spider silk that bound Mo Xuan broke into pieces and turned into ashes and dissipated.
Mo Xuan stared at him blankly, her heart beating so violently that it almost burst through her chest.
He is still alive, he is really alive!
Ecstasy came like a tide, almost drowning her.
Her fingertips trembled slightly, her eyes were hot, and tears fell uncontrollably.
She had thought he was dead, that all hope was lost, but now he stood before her, stronger and more dazzling than ever before.
However, after the joy, a trace of cold doubt quietly crept into my heart.
Was all this part of his plan?
He drank the blood of the ancient divine phoenix and was reborn with the help of the Chaos Green Lotus. Even Qin Tianyi became his man.
So, did he know from the beginning that Zhao Lingyu would attack him, and did he anticipate Mo Li's betrayal?
If that was the case, her fingertips clenched slightly, and a sharp pain rose in her heart.
So, were her pain, her despair, and her desperate protection just part of his plan?
Li Lingge seemed to notice her change of mood. He slowly approached her, reached out and gently stroked her cheek. His thumb wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. His voice was low and gentle:
"I'm sorry for making you worry."
Mo Xuan looked up at him, with mixed emotions in her eyes: joy, grievance, and doubt...
"You knew it would turn out like this, didn't you?"
Li Lingge was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly.
"yes."
Mo Xuan closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and when she opened them again, she didn't know how to face the person in front of her.
"So, what's next?"
Li Lingge looked at her, the corners of his lips slightly raised, and a deep light flashed in his eyes.
"Now it's time to get back what belongs to me."
The throne of the Tiansheng Dynasty!
…
The capital, Fengqi Palace.
The night is as dark as ink, and the palace lanterns are swaying.
Li Lingge's figure appeared in Su Qinghuang's bedroom like a ghost, without disturbing any guards, and even the candlelight in the room did not flicker at all.
Su Qinghuang was leaning on the couch, her fingertips gently stroking an ancient book, when she suddenly felt the atmosphere in the hall change slightly. The moment she raised her eyes, her pupils suddenly shrank.
"You actually broke through to the Divine Emperor realm?"
It had been a short time since the two of them last met, yet the other party had actually broken through from the early stage of the Divine Lord Realm directly to the Divine Emperor Realm. This speed made her a little amazed.
Su Qinghuang's voice was very low, but she could not hide her shock.
Li Lingge raised the corners of his lips slightly, but his eyes were cold.
"Your Highness, long time no see."
Su Qinghuang looked Li Lingge up and down, still finding it unbelievable.
"I heard that you and Zhao Lingyu went to the Ten Thousand Spider Valley together. Why are you here so late at night?"
Li Lingge chuckled, a hint of sarcasm flashing in his eyes.
"Zhao Lingyu is dead."
"What?!"
Su Qinghuang stood up suddenly and stared at Li Lingge, trying to find any trace of lying on his face.
However, his eyes were eerily calm, as if he was simply stating a perfectly ordinary fact.
"You... killed him?"
Li Lingge did not answer, but said lightly.
"I'm here to tell the Imperial Concubine something. Zhao Wuji is dying. The Imperial Concubine must make preparations to seize power in advance."
He leaned forward slightly, his voice as low as the echo of the abyss:
Su Qinghuang trembled all over and looked at him in disbelief.
"Your Majesty is the Divine Emperor, blessed with the imperial fortune, how could he possibly die soon?"
Li Lingge raised his eyes, chaotic energy flowing in his eyes. Just one look made Su Qinghuang feel as if she had fallen into an icy cave, and the rest of the words were stuck in her throat.
"I have my own methods."
His voice was calm, yet carried an undeniable power.
Su Qinghuang's chest heaved violently. She took a deep breath, her fingertips trembling slightly.
Obviously his cultivation level was lower than hers, but when she met those starry eyes, she actually felt a little fear.
"What do you want me to do?"
Li Lingge's lips curled slightly.
"After Zhao Wuji's death, the court will be in chaos. The Queen's family will never sit idly by and wait for death. The Imperial Concubine knows better than me what to do."
Su Qinghuang clenched her sleeves tightly, feeling a conflict between her conscience and her conscience.
She didn't believe that Li Lingge could kill Zhao Wuji, but the man's eyes were too determined, as if everything was under control.
Can he really do it?
For some reason, after just a moment of hesitation, Su Qinghuang chose to believe it.
