And then I imagine the image of you two making love mouth-to-mouth, all lovey-dovey... I'm sorry, it's too beautiful, I really can't bring myself to say something so insincere!
"You're the one who ruined A-Feng's life!" Ning Ruoxue suddenly roared. "Why are you targeting A-Feng like this? He didn't offend you, so why are you destroying him!"
Shen Zhao snorted: "Why? Do you know who Lin Feng is? How long have you known him? How much do you know about him?"
Go ask around in the Eastern Continent. Lin Feng is a notorious evil cultivator. How can you still protect such a scoundrel? No wonder the Heavenly Sacred Land has become so morally corrupt!
"No, impossible! How could Ah Feng be an evil cultivator? You must be lying to me!"
"Believe it or not, I advise you not to move now. Let me remove this slave seed first!"
"Don't touch me!"
Ning Ruoxue's eyes were red: "Even if it really was A-Feng who planted the slave mark on me, it was because he cared about me and was afraid of losing me that he resorted to this drastic measure."
"I don't want you to remove the slave seed. I'm willing to become his slave and stay with him for life. You can't separate us!"
With a frenzied demeanor and furious emotions, Ning Ruoxue refused to cooperate and vented her dissatisfaction on everyone.
"You're all just jealous of me! Jealous that I've found a lifelong partner. I don't want your pretense, I just want to be with A-Feng!"
"Enough!"
With a soft shout, Mu Qiuyao unleashed her imperial might, instantly making Ning Ruoxue breathless.
"You wicked disciple, you have truly disappointed me! Boy, make your move now!"
Shen Zhao nodded and stopped talking nonsense. He decisively pressed his palm against her crown, and immediately the flames of the Nanming Fire within his body burst forth, with wisps of white smoke rising from between his five fingers.
Ah~
Ning Ruoxue's painful screams echoed in the back hall, and the slave mark on her forehead flickered, as if she was trying her best to resist the pull of this external force.
"Get out here!"
With a deep shout, Shen Zhao raised his hand, and the slave seed was instantly stripped of Ning Ruoxue's soul.
Ning Ruoxue collapsed on the spot, as if she had lost all strength.
Shen Zhao's forehead was also covered in cold sweat, but looking at the slave mark in his palm, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Such a scourge should never have existed in the world!"
The Southern Bright Fire surged within his palm, instantly turning the slave seal to ashes.
"it's over!"
Shen Zhao immediately picked up the wine gourd and took a big gulp.
Removing the Myriad Paths Slave Seal had taken a toll on his mental energy, leaving him extremely exhausted.
"That's it?" Mu Qiuyao looked at Shen Zhao with some confusion. "What technique did you use? It was less than half a cup of tea in less than that. How could it be so fast?"
"Keep it a secret!"
Shen Zhao put down his wine gourd and gave a perfunctory reply.
Yu Xiyan looked at Shen Zhao with heartache, without saying a word.
"By the way, I've done what I promised you, so shouldn't you do something for me in return?"
"What's up?"
Shen Zhao glanced at Yu Xiyan, then took out the Mountain and River Seal: "I'll borrow your Purple Star Imperial Qi to repair the Imperial Seal."
Yu Xiyan was taken aback, and quickly said, "Chen Zhao, I'm not in a hurry, you..."
Before she could finish speaking, Shen Zhao interrupted her: "What I, Shen Zhao, promise to do, I will do, even if I am unwilling afterward."
You've been away from Chang'an long enough. Gu Jingyan is still waiting for you at the Heavenly Sword Sect. When you go back, take the Imperial Seal with you.
Yu Xiyan's eyes reddened, her lips trembled slightly, and after a long while she asked in a low voice, "Chen Zhao, do you really not want to go back with me?"
Shen Zhao took a deep breath and said, word by word, "This is the last thing I can do for the Great Yin Empire. Now that this matter is settled, I think I should repay what I owe your royal family."
Yu Xiyan felt a sharp pain in her chest and asked incredulously, "You really don't want to be with me?"
"In no mood!"
Shen Zhao answered decisively, his expression more resolute and calm than ever before.
Yu Xiyan was immediately bewildered and couldn't come to her senses for a long time.
Mu Qiuyao felt a surge of secret pleasure, seeing Yu Xiyan so humiliated was a great joy in her life.
Aren't you the most extraordinary genius in the Immortal Martial Continent? Now that Shen Zhao is no longer taking care of you, let's see how you achieve the Great Emperor realm. My position as the number one person in the Immortal Martial Continent will be unshakable for eternity!
"Ahem, alright. Leave the Imperial Seal here. I will help you repair it. It's getting late. You may go and rest now. Three days later, once the Imperial Seal is repaired, I will personally escort you away from the court."
"Then I'll take my leave."
Shen Zhao immediately stood up, casually waved to Mu Qiuyao, and then strolled away from the back hall.
He didn't even glance at Yu Xiyan, which filled her with dread. In her past life...
Inside the side hall, Shen Zhao met up with Liang Hao, Ding Bu'er, and several others.
After a series of meaningless pleasantries, He Yishou began to talk about Su Yunying's recent situation.
"Brother Shen, Miss Su has been picked up by her family."
"Family? You mean those two who want to turn her into a beast who doesn't even envy sheep?"
"No! That's just her adoptive mother. Miss Su's biological father is Su Lingzhang, the head of a powerful family in the Southern Region, and her biological mother is Yin Jiao'e, the legitimate daughter of the Fire Phoenix Clan."
"Oh, that's great! Congratulations to this girl for finding her family."
Hearing this, Shen Zhao finally had her doubts resolved.
How could an ordinary farming family possibly give birth to a descendant with the bloodline of the Xuanhuang? Now it seems there is indeed more to the story.
However, when Su Yunying was murdered in her previous life, none of her relatives came forward, as if she never existed.
While Shen Zhao was still pondering the reasons, He Yishou continued, "However, I always feel that something is not right."
"Something's not right."
"The people who came to fetch Miss Su were not her biological parents, but several servants. Moreover, their attitude towards Miss Su was not that of servants meeting their masters; on the contrary, it was full of disdain and arrogance."
Think about it, that's their long-lost biological daughter. Shouldn't her parents come to pick her up in person?
However, those servants didn't treat Miss Su with the respect she deserved. I believe this is definitely not an ordinary matter.
Feng Xiunian continued, "Yes, later I had someone inquire, and it seems the Su family found Miss Su because of some adopted daughter. In short, it's a long story, but one thing is basically certain."
Their purpose in seeking out Miss Su is definitely not pure. I was thinking, Brother Shen, once you've finished dealing with things here, could you make a trip to the Su family in the Southern Region?
While you were away, this girl didn't say anything, but we could tell she was worried sick about you.
