Outside the temple, a dense crowd of citizens of Shenyue City had gathered.
They protested vehemently! They wanted to see the entire Wang family die with their own eyes.
"The Divine Lady is also a member of the Wang family... Without the Divine Lady's permission and protection, would the Wang family have dared to be so bold?"
"Yes, all these years our Venerable One has been in seclusion, and the temple has been under the control of the Divine Venerable's wife. Without the Divine Venerable's wife's protection, how could the Wang family have gotten away with it for so many years!"
"We demand that Your Majesty thoroughly investigate this matter. If the Lady of the Divine Palace is involved, she must not be let off lightly!"
"That's right! To do such an inhuman thing is unworthy of being human! The Goddess's wife has immense power and influence. If she hadn't turned a blind eye, the Wang family would never have acted so blatantly."
Everyone chimed in with their own opinions.
Public opinion can no longer be suppressed.
However, Lady Xuanxin is not having an easy time now, as Di Qing has discovered the truth about her cultivation being destroyed.
Even if she wanted to cover it up, it was no use!
Emperor Qing ordered Xuan Xin to be placed under house arrest;
Although her title wasn't directly revoked, she was placed under house arrest... and given what happened to the Wang family, everyone knew that Madam Xuanxin could no longer gain Di Qing's trust.
Wang Yun'er never expected things to turn out this way. Just yesterday, she was overjoyed, thinking that she was about to win Di Qing's favor.
To replace Lady Xuanxin!
But overnight, the Wang family was destroyed! She had the blood of the Wang family flowing through her veins, and she could not escape the calamity either!
Wang Yun'er couldn't sit still any longer; she absolutely couldn't just sit there and wait to die!
What does the downfall of the Wang family have to do with her? She wants to live.
As long as she can gain the favor of the Venerable One, her life will be at his mercy.
Thinking of this, Wang Yun'er immediately took action.
She remembered that in the portrait her father gave her... the ghost princess loved wearing purple.
Coincidentally, most of the dresses she brought were purple!
Wang Yun'er changed into a dress.
Just then, Madam Xuanxin walked in and saw Wang Yun'er like this.
Slightly taken aback, Wang Yun'er, now dressed in this outfit, bore a striking resemblance to the woman from back then.
“The Wang family has fallen, and you won’t live much longer, so why waste your time?”
Madam Xuanxin gave a cold laugh.
They were all imprisoned in this palace. It was one thing for Wang Yun'er to try to sneak out, but she even tried to seduce Di Qing.
Isn't this just asking for trouble?
"Big sister, it's your own business if you're waiting to die, but I don't want to die." Wang Yun'er touched her face.
She has such a beautiful face; wouldn't it be a waste not to make good use of it?
"Foolish." Madam Xuanxin sneered, not stopping Wang Yun'er.
Since Wang Yun'er is eager to go and die.
Then let her have her way.
"Is your older sister jealous of me? If you had a face like mine, why would you have been living alone for so many years?"
"Wang Yun'er!"
Madam Xuanxin's expression changed, and she looked coldly at Wang Yun'er.
"Elder sister, don't be angry. Although the truth is indeed hard to accept, what bad intentions could I possibly have? Don't worry, I will definitely put in a good word for you in front of His Majesty."
"Ha, you overconfident fool!"
Madam Xuanxin sneered and turned to leave the room.
Wang Yun'er didn't take Madam Xuanxin's words to heart at all.
Di Qing mainly imprisoned Madam Xuanxin. Although she was Madam Xuanxin's younger sister, she was a demon beast in disguise and secretly slipped out through the back door.
Following my memory, I arrived at the main hall.
Inside the main hall.
"Your Majesty, the whole of Shenyue City is in an uproar. If the Wang family is not dealt with soon, it may incite public anger."
The First Elder broke out in a cold sweat; the Wang family's affair had escalated far too much this time.
The Grand Elder knew very well that Jun Liuyue must have been involved in this.
Even though he guessed that it was related to Jun Liuyue, there was nothing he could do.
After all, the fact that the Wang family had imprisoned blood slaves was a done deal.
It's completely impossible to cover her mouth now.
"Issue my order: all direct descendants of the Wang family shall be executed by slow slicing, publicly, to appease public anger."
Di Qing said coldly.
Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder looked up in surprise, hesitating to speak: "But His Majesty..."
"Is there anything else?"
"Madam, she..." is also a direct descendant of the Wang family!
Moreover, no one would believe it if it were said that this matter had nothing to do with Madam Xuanxin;
"Announcing to the world that Wang Xuanxin is deposed and reduced to a commoner! Even if she was unaware of this matter, she may be spared the death penalty, but she will not escape punishment and will be imprisoned in Fengning Palace for life."
"Yes, I'll take care of it right away."
The Grand Elder nodded.
It seems His Majesty still wants to save Wang Xuanxin's life, but that's understandable... even though the Emperor and Empress are estranged.
However, Wang Xuanxin had given birth to Princess Qingluan after all. Even though Wang Xuanxin knew the inside story of the Wang family, the Venerable One still chose to protect Wang Xuanxin's life at all costs.
All of this was within the Grand Elder's expectations.
"Is there anything else?"
Seeing that the Grand Elder had not left for a long time, Di Qing frowned. "Is there anything else you want to say?"
"There is something I need to say, but I don't know whether I should or shouldn't," the elder said, his heart filled with turmoil.
"Speak your mind freely."
"This matter concerns Princess Liuyue."
Upon hearing this, Di Qing's expression changed.
"The Blood Spirit Pill case was solved so quickly thanks in part to Princess Liuyue," the Grand Elder said. "Princess Liuyue still cares about the temple..."
"Heh." Di Qing sneered: "Concerned about the Temple? You mean she's turning the Temple upside down and colluding with the Demon Clan, and that's also being concerned about the Temple?"
Di Qing was extremely disappointed in this daughter.
Back then, taking her divine bones... was a last resort.
Who told her that she had the blood of the demon race flowing through her veins?
The future successor of the temple could never be someone with the blood of the demon race!
“The demons are treacherous and cunning, especially the Demon Lord, who is an ancient monster who has lived for thousands of years! Princess Liuyue is simple-minded and must have been deceived by the Demon Lord to do things that harm the temple.” The Grand Elder said seriously, “Your Majesty, no matter what, Princess Liuyue also has the blood of the gods flowing in her veins, she is just…”
"Elder, there is no need to discuss this matter further. I only have one daughter, Qingluan," Di Qing said coldly. "Qingluan is also a person chosen by destiny. The future of the temple will be handed over to her. As for that wretched child! Since she has colluded with the demons, she has nothing to do with the temple anymore."
Di Qing said in a way that left no room for argument.
Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder could not say anything more, but he felt sorry for Liu Yue.
Alas, if Princess Liuyue were to apologize to His Majesty, all of this would be easily resolved.
After all, what father and daughter hold a grudge overnight?
"Your subordinate takes his leave."
The Grand Elder turned and left the main hall.
As he approached the palace gate, a purple figure brushed past him.
