Chapter 401: Quite Mysterious
"It looks like something happened. They have all been taken away to the Imperial Master's Mansion." Jiang Yunxi's eyes were filled with murderous intent. If they were harmed, she would repay the person who hurt them a thousandfold.
"I'll take you there." said the eldest princess. She didn't know where the Imperial Master's Mansion was, but Qingshang had it in her memory.
As soon as the three of them left the Princess's Mansion, they saw two neat rows of Royal Guards outside.
"Princess, the emperor invites you to enter the palace. Their companions are all in the palace." The leading royal guard stepped forward and said respectfully.
"Lead the way." The eldest princess said coldly.
Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Beiyuan looked at each other. They didn't expect that Qianheng and the others were in the palace. It seemed that their identities were exposed, so Emperor Tianqi took action to take everyone away.
…
Imperial Palace.
"Greetings, Your Majesty." The eldest princess saluted the upright Emperor Tianqi with no expression on her face. If he dared to hurt the young lady's friends, she would not show mercy even if he was her younger brother.
"Imperial sister, you, you are really the imperial sister?" Emperor Tianqi quickly stood up. Eunuch Xu had told him everything that happened to the eldest princess. He was shocked after hearing it.
I never expected that the imperial sister I had been with for decades was a fake.
The real imperial sister was murdered when she was fifteen years old.
"It's me. All of this was planned by the Imperial Master to prevent me from returning. But everything that happened since the day I was born destined me to be no ordinary mortal, so I came back."
The eldest princess said coldly, "Damn imperial teacher."
It was he who caused her to be separated from her father, the emperor, and her mother, the empress, since she was young. They didn't even know that their daughter had died long ago until the day they died.
"Imperial Master, why did he design all this?" Emperor Tianqi was very puzzled.
"Thousands of years ago, a remarkable woman appeared in the six realms. She was righteous, selfless, generous, and brave. Many people became her followers. Later, she was murdered, and her five pieces of body fell into the human world."
"There's a piece of body fragment in the Tianqi Emperor's capital. The Imperial Master said it was the fragment of a great demon. On the day I was born, dead trees came back to life and flowers blossomed. He thinks I'm the reincarnation of the great demon's follower, and I came to revive the fragment."
"He probably couldn't kill me at the time, so he used a trick to drive me out of the capital. After I left the capital, my health became weaker and weaker. When I was about to reach the age of marriage, he saw the opportunity and killed me."
"The body fragments in the Tianqi Imperial Capital were not those of the great devil, but that of that extraordinary woman."
The princess did not hide it, but there was no need to hide it now, as the young lady had already taken the body parts and fused them together.
She would no longer stay in the Apocalypse Empire.
This was never her home.
"I don't know all this..." Emperor Tianqi was confused and indescribably shocked in his heart. It turned out that the royal sister's origin was really not simple. No wonder his father and mother always thought she was of great origin.
Unfortunately, they didn't know that their imperial sister had passed away before they died.
"Royal brother, where is my young lady's companion?" asked the eldest princess.
"Your young lady?" Emperor Tianqi widened his eyes.
"She." The eldest princess pointed at Jiang Yunxi next to her.
Emperor Tianqi looked at Jiang Yunxi, then at Zhan Beiyuan, and said with a cold face: "Your Highness Prince Han, I wonder what business you have in coming to the capital of Tianqi secretly?"
Zhan Beiyuan raised an eyebrow. "Half of the soldiers who attacked Pingyang City were thrown into the Shadow Forest where wild beasts often appeared, and the other half were thrown into the Hopeless Sea near Pingyang City. I'm afraid they are in great danger."
"You, you did it!" Emperor Tianqi widened his eyes and trembled with anger.
"It wasn't me who did it, it was a citizen of Pingyang City. Who made Tenglong Country produce such a capable person? The only thing to blame is Tianqi for attacking Tenglong Country." Zhan Beiyuan said in a deep voice with a dark face.
Emperor Tianqi: “…”
Did the people do it?
Are the people of Tenglong Country so powerful?
"Royal brother, please stop your unnecessary ambitions. The real thing is to protect the Apocalypse Empire." The eldest princess looked at him sharply. She was giving him a warning.
"Tenglong Country only hopes for world peace. If Apocalypse attacks again, we will have no choice but to continue throwing half of our soldiers into the Shadow Forest and the other half into the Hopeless Sea." Jiang Yunxi said coldly.
No matter how powerful she is, she will never think of swallowing up other countries.
In her opinion, world peace is the most important thing.
"You..." Emperor Tianqi slumped in his chair, his mind in a mess, especially the extraordinary woman that his sister mentioned, and her dismembered body, and also, were the people of Tenglong Country so powerful?
No wonder General Zheng and his 30,000 soldiers all disappeared.
Why did Tenglong Country suddenly become so powerful?
"Where are my companions?" Jiang Yunxi asked. She just wanted to see them as soon as possible. Now that the body parts had been obtained, it was time for them to pack up and leave.
She must quickly gather the body parts and fuse them together.
"They are in Ling Palace, which is where the national teacher lives." Emperor Tianqi said quickly. It was not him who brought them into the palace.
"Your Majesty, I will not care about the attack on Tenglong Kingdom this time. If it happens again, I will definitely lead my cavalry into Tianqi." Zhan Beiyuan made a harsh statement.
"Why bother sending troops? If it happens again, I will just kill the people who started the war." Jiang Yunxi said as he waved his right hand and threw Emperor Tianqi into the air.
Emperor Tianqi didn't expect that he would suddenly fly up and float in the air. His face suddenly changed drastically. He was terrified and said angrily, "You, you quickly put me down."
"Miss, my royal brother is not a warlike person." The eldest princess spoke up.
Jiang Yunxi raised his hand and sent Emperor Tianqi back, saying lightly: "For the sake of the eldest princess, I won't touch you. Otherwise, if I really want to kill you, just move your fingers."
"You, you, are you the witch that the witch master said would bring disaster to the world?" Emperor Tianqi said, shrinking his body, his face full of vigilance.
"A witch who brings disaster to the world?" Jiang Yunxi raised her eyebrows, moved to the front of the table, and looked down at Emperor Tianqi.
Emperor Tianqi fell back in shock and stammered, "She predicted that a witch had appeared in Tenglong Country. That's why I sent troops to attack Tenglong Country."
"Where is she?" Jiang Yunxi narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Miss, she lives in the Spirit Palace. She is the witch master of the Apocalypse Empire. She is a capable person with special powers. She always wears a veil and is quite mysterious." The eldest princess said quickly.
Jiang Yunxi's pretty face turned cold. "Take us to the Ling Palace. It seems that she saved the Imperial Master and took Qian Heng and the others away."
The eldest princess gave Emperor Tianqi a warning look and left with Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Beiyuan.
…
Spirit Palace.
On the altar.
Qianheng and the others were tied up, with a lot of dry firewood piled underneath, and it looked like they were going to be burned to death.
"Witch Master, do we really want to burn them to death?" Taoist Cangwu frowned. After all, they were innocent people and there was no need to take their lives. The main thing was that he didn't know whether those three people had obtained the body parts.
"They are in the same group. Don't they deserve to die?" The woman who spoke was wearing a red veil, a red dot between her eyebrows, exotic clothes, and various ornaments on her slender wrists.
