Chapter 201 Ways to Leave
General Chen had a self-deprecating smile on his face:
"Really? I'm sorry to have made a fool of myself."
He curled the corners of his mouth and looked at Feng Tianning with some confusion.
"Why did you save me?"
Feng Tianning and the other two looked at each other and smiled:
"We are immortals from heaven. We saw that there seemed to be an injustice here, so we went to Xuancheng."
"Then I followed you to the Beimang Palace and heard your story."
General Chen accepted it quickly and believed what they said without much thought.
"Immortal?" he murmured.
"I beg the immortals to help me. My sister and my wife died unjustly. If I don't avenge them, I really can't face them."
General Chen turned around, knelt down towards Feng Tianning and the other two, and kowtowed several times.
"My fellow immortals, I am willing to pay any price to avenge my sister and madam."
Feng Tianning was silent for a moment, then looked at General Chen with a complicated expression and said:
“Everything here is fake.”
General Chen was stunned for a moment and lowered his head even deeper.
"I know."
"When I heard the news of my sister and my wife's death, I did quietly return to Kyoto."
"After I found out who had killed them, I rushed into the palace with my sword in hand. At that time, I was only fifty steps away from that bastard emperor."
General Chen's voice was filled with grief and indignation:
"But he seemed to be protected by an immortal, and my sword was suddenly broken by an invisible force."
"He imprisoned me and fed my sister's body to the dogs in front of me."
"I didn't want her to die in peace, so I set fire to the entire dungeon."
Feng Tianning patted his shoulder with some reluctance and said:
"So you created this dream after you died?"
General Chen nodded:
"I thought I was dead, but suddenly a voice appeared in my mind, saying that I had lived a life of accumulating virtue and doing good deeds, and had devoted myself to serving the country."
"He was able to give me a chance to be 'reborn,' and so I had this dream."
Xuan Gou Chen said with some doubt:
"Since you knew it was a dream, why didn't you just manipulate the dream to kill the Emperor of Beimang?"
"This way, your great revenge will be avenged."
General Chen smiled bitterly:
"It's not like I haven't tried."
"I have been trapped in this dream for ten years. During these ten years, I have tried countless times to seek revenge on the Emperor and the Crown Prince, but was always interrupted at the last step by a certain force."
"But this is your dream, everything should be controlled by you." Qin Guan looked at him in confusion.
"Yes, that's why every time I failed in my rebellion, I was able to erase everyone's memory and return to being the unknown General Xuancheng."
"That was my seventh failed rebellion. I'm tired too."
He collapsed on the ground:
"Perhaps I will never be able to take revenge in this life, and I won't even be able to kill a phantom in my dream."
In this case, he might as well die directly under the weapons of those people, rather than another failed rebellion.
If this happened a few more times, General Chen thought he might really go crazy.
Feng Tianning pondered for a moment and said:
"I will help you avenge your hatred."
"But the prerequisite is that we leave here first."
There was a glimmer of light in General Chen's eyes, but it soon dimmed again.
"That's the emperor. If the immortals kill him like this, there will probably be chaos in the world."
"What's more, the immortal guarding the Emperor of Beimang is also quite powerful."
"I will help you, as long as we can get out of this dream."
Feng Tianning paused and continued:
"I promise you in the name of Nuwa that no evildoer will escape punishment."
General Chen's face showed a little more hope, and he said hesitantly:
"It's not that I don't want you to leave, but I really don't know how this dream will end."
Feng Tianning thought for a moment and said:
"Your obsession."
"As long as your obsession dissipates, the dream will dissipate, and then we can leave."
"But then you'll also..."
"I will also die completely." General Chen continued what Feng Tianning had not finished saying.
He bowed respectfully to Feng Tianning:
"As long as I can avenge my family, I don't care whether I live or die."
"But...how can his obsession be dispelled?" Qin Guan said somewhat dejectedly.
"We can't just rush into the palace and kill the Emperor of Beimang, right?"
Xuan Gou Chen nodded and added:
"He is protected by a strange power. We..."
Feng Tianning's gaze fell on the gate of the imperial city, and after a long while he spoke:
"Go in and kill them."
"Let General Chen kill the Emperor and the Crown Prince of Beimang with his own hands."
Qin Guan and Xuan Gou Chen both looked at her in shock, and even General Chen's face showed a bit of worry.
But before they could speak, Feng Tianning took the lead and walked towards the palace.
The others looked at each other, gritted their teeth and followed.
"Tianning, are you sure?"
Feng Tianning shook his head:
"I'm not completely sure, but if I don't get out now, it will be too late."
"Why?"
"I could feel someone moving my body."
Xuan Gou Chen and Qin Guan's faces became more solemn, and they lowered their voices and said:
"Tianning, so our bodies have been stolen?"
Feng Tianning didn’t know either, so the only way now was to leave here as soon as possible, otherwise what happened outside would be beyond their control.
They went all the way to the palace and returned to the hall they had just been in.
Seeing General Chen coming back, the guards thought he had some tricks up his sleeve and dared not stop him, so they could only follow him.
The people of the Beimang royal family had not left yet, and they were stunned when they saw General Chen.
"I was just about to have someone bring you back, but I didn't expect you to show up here on your own."
"In that case, then take him down."
As soon as the Emperor of Beimang finished speaking, the soldiers behind him rushed up, but stopped ten steps away from them.
They seemed to have seen something terrifying, and they all froze in place, not daring to come any closer.
General Chen smiled:
"I just can't kill the emperor, but I can control these people."
Feng Tianning nodded and walked towards the Emperor of Beimang step by step.
“You… who are you!?”
"What do you want to do!"
Feng Tianning ignored his shouting and dragged the Beimang Emperor by his collar and brought him to General Chen.
She picked up a knife from the ground and handed it to him:
"Kill him."
General Chen was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect it to be so smooth. He gritted his teeth and took the knife.
"I've tried it before, and any knife that gets close to the Emperor of Beimang will break."
"I can't kill him no matter how hard I try."
"Kill him." Feng Tianning repeated.
Seeing her so sure, General Chen no longer hesitated and inserted the knife straight into the body of the Beimang Emperor.
