"What's that kid up to now?!"
Thinking of this, she immediately pushed through the crowd and walked to the memorial tablet.
When Shen Zhao's memorial tablet came into view, she was struck dumb.
"Tell me, what's going on!"
In a moment of desperation, Mu Qiuyao disregarded her image and grabbed Liang Hao, who was crying his heart out, and questioned him sharply.
Upon seeing that it was the Empress of the Northern Region, Liang Hao was startled, and then said in a mournful voice, "Daoist Miaoshan, you've come too? Please light incense for my elder brother and send him off on his final journey."
"What do you mean? What do you mean by 'sending your elder brother on his final journey'? Where is Shen Zhaoren? Tell him to come out!"
Upon hearing this, Liang Hao couldn't help but burst into tears: "My older brother... he's gone..."
Upon hearing this, Mu Qiuyao felt as if she were stepping on a floating cloud, so soft that she almost fell over.
But she forced herself to remain calm, and shook her head with a light laugh: "How could that be? With the boy's skills, how could he die? This must be another of his tricks, right?"
Liang Hao shook his head: "No, my brother is really dead. He was poisoned by the people of the Nine Netherworld and died four hours ago."
As soon as he finished speaking, Linghu Ming suddenly roared, "It's all my fault! I killed Brother Shen! It was me! It was me!"
Linghu Ming cried uncontrollably, and in his excitement, he suddenly drew his long sword and was about to slit his own throat.
"donor!"
Fahai immediately stepped forward, snatched the sword, and blocked him with all his might.
"Let me die! Brother Shen, it's all my fault! It's all my fault!"
Mu Qiuyao's vision suddenly blurred.
"Impossible, no way, how could that kid be dead? I don't believe it, I refuse to believe it!"
She gripped Liang Hao's shoulder tightly, her eyes turning sharp: "Where is that kid? Make him come out and see me right now! This joke is no joke at all!"
Liang Hao cried out in pain, "My brother is really gone. If you don't believe me, I'll take you to see his body."
"lead the way!"
At Mu Qiuyao's command, Liang Hao had no choice but to lead her to the backyard where Shen Zhao's body was placed.
"No, it's my fault that Brother Shen is in trouble!"
Suddenly, Linghu Ming broke free from Fahai and rushed out of Shenshui Pavilion.
"Benefactor, benefactor..."
"Amitabha."
Seeing this scene, Fahai could only silently recite a Buddhist mantra.
At this moment, in the backyard, looking at Shen Zhao lying peacefully in the coffin, Mu Qiuyao was completely stunned.
"Empress, you saw it too, my elder brother really is gone. He left so suddenly, no one expected it."
As Liang Hao spoke, he wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes again.
Mu Qiuyao was unable to accept this fact and immediately used her divine sense to investigate.
However, Shen Zhao showed no signs of life, and even the Nanming Li Fire had long since been extinguished.
"Impossible, I don't believe it, kid, you must be lying to me, right? Wake up right now, there's no one else here, stop pretending."
However, no matter how she called out to him, Shen Zhao remained motionless.
"Kid! Still pretending, huh? Fine, let's see how long you can keep up the act!"
Suddenly, Mu Qiuyao grabbed Shen Zhao's body, turned around and rushed out of the house, disappearing in a flash of light.
Liang Hao was taken aback when he saw this.
"Oh no, I didn't expect the Northern Region Empress to have this attitude. This has completely disrupted our plans. What should we do?"
