The Emperor couldn't help but complain about Zhan Yi. Why couldn't he be more careful? That was a zombie who ate people without spitting out the bones. How could he... not be satisfied until he ruined the country?
For the sake of the country, for the sake of the people, and for the sake of the dragon throne beneath his backside, the emperor had to use all his persuasive skills to finally make Ji Xiaoxiao happy.
"I'll help you get rid of those zombies, no problem."
"Master Xu!" the Emperor exclaimed with delight.
"but……."
But what? Tell me quickly! Gold, silver, jewels, promotions, and titles—you name it!
"However, Your Majesty, you must grant me two wishes."
The Emperor looked at Ji Xiaoxiao, a thoughtful look flashing in his sharp eyes.
Two wishes!
"What is it?" the Emperor asked in a deep voice.
Ji Xiaoxiao looked directly at the Emperor, her expression unchanged, and said, "First, Prince Gong will be tried fairly, justly, and openly according to the law, without any favoritism or perversion of justice."
After much deliberation, the Emperor agreed to Ji Xiaoxiao's request.
Now that things have come to this, it's all Zhan Yi's fault, and Ji Xiaoxiao's request is understandable.
"Secondly, I ask the Emperor to ensure the safety and prosperity of the Xu family for three generations."
Originally, Ji Xiaoxiao's main task was to protect her family, but she exceeded expectations.
"Three generations?"
“My father, my brother, and my brother’s children, that’s three generations.”
Just peace and wealth?
There's no major problem; the Emperor has granted his request.
Ji Xiaoxiao was still uneasy, fearing that the Emperor was just making empty promises. She went to great lengths to invite Yama, the King of Hell, to be a witness. With a god or spirit as a witness, even if you are an emperor on earth, you would not dare to break your word.
Afterwards, Ji Xiaoxiao quickly left the palace.
On the way, Liao Kongmin hesitated to speak.
Ji Xiaoxiao couldn't bear to watch any longer and couldn't help but ask, "Lord Liao, what's wrong?"
After much deliberation, Liao Kongmin told Ji Xiaoxiao what Xu Yong had done to Xu Ningyi.
"Xu Yong cut off his brother's arm?"
It's just a zombie tooth mark on the arm. You can just apply some glutinous rice and lotus seed powder. Why do you need to cut off the arm? Zombie poison isn't snake venom.
"Where is my brother now?" Ji Xiaoxiao asked anxiously.
"It should be in the General Zhenguo's Mansion," Liao Kongmin said uncertainly.
Ji Xiaoxiao didn't think too much about it and rushed to the Zhenguo General's Mansion without stopping.
As soon as she returned to the Zhenguo General's Mansion, Ji Xiaoxiao heard heart-wrenching cries.
Ji Xiaoxiao responded to the call and quickly arrived at the Green Bamboo Courtyard where Xu Ningyi lived.
In the courtyard were the original owner's mother, Li Liancheng, and Xu Ningyi's wife and children. They held the unconscious Xu Ningyi and wept bitterly, their hearts breaking.
"Mother, sister-in-law, you go out first. I have a way to save my brother."
While they were still dazed and innocent, Ji Xiaoxiao sent them away.
An hour later, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground came from inside the house.
Li Liancheng was extremely anxious and pushed the door open to enter.
"Yi'er, you're alright." Li Liancheng saw Xu Ningyi's unharmed hands.
However, on the ground was an old woman with white hair.
"Who is this?" Li Liancheng had someone in mind.
"It's my sister." Xu Ningyi's voice choked with emotion.
"Xu Qi? How is that possible?"
Li Liancheng glanced at Xu Ningyi's hand, and then his mouth could no longer utter a sound.
"Mother, brother."
When Ji Xiaoxiao woke up, she called out to Li Liancheng and Xu Ningyi, and hurriedly told them everything about her deal with the emperor.
Regardless of their reaction, Ji Xiaoxiao firmly asked them to leave.
After everyone left, Ji Xiaoxiao, with a heavy heart, used "Do As You Please".
With the use of "Do As You Please", all the zombies in the Imperial City vanished into thin air.
"General, all the zombies are gone!" a soldier exclaimed with delight.
Despite the joyous occasion, Xu Yong's heart ached incessantly.
Suddenly, Xu Yong turned his head toward the Zhenguo General's Mansion.
Inside the house in Qingzhu Garden.
"Ji Xiaoxiao, do you still remember me?"
Feng Yi was dressed in a white robe, elegant and graceful, exuding an ethereal aura.
Ji Xiaoxiao squinted, her heart pounding with panic. "You were there that night."
"Ah, Xiaoxiao hasn't forgotten me, I'm so happy."
Feng Yi walked in, stepping on Ji Xiaoxiao's hand without letting go.
Ji Xiaoxiao frowned, but she was powerless to resist.
At that point, even ants could kill her.
"Kill me or torture me, it's all up to you."
"Hehehe..." Feng Yi's laughter was cut short when a long sword was thrust towards his head.
"Yunming," Ji Xiaoxiao said absentmindedly upon seeing the person who had arrived.
Yunming glanced lovingly at Ji Xiaoxiao, then turned his attention to dealing with Feng Yi.
Feng Yi was furious. Before Yun Ming could make a move, Feng Yi grabbed Yun Ming in the blink of an eye.
"Let him go!" Ji Xiaoxiao shouted.
No, no, Yunming can't die.
"I really don't want to leave you." Yunming turned his head, his eyes clearly reflecting Ji Xiaoxiao.
"Impossible, you're going to die."
Feng Yi pinched Yun Ming's head, smiled wickedly, his five fingers gripping tightly, and a white and red substance, carrying a strong smell of blood, exploded all over Ji Xiaoxiao's face.
After standing there dumbfounded for a while, Ji Xiaoxiao cried out frantically, "No, no, no."
Ji Xiaoxiao crawled to the corpse and grabbed the things on her face and around her, putting them into the hole in her head.
No, not at all. Yunming is dead.
He's dead, he's dead, Yunming is dead.
"ah……."
Ji Xiaoxiao screamed and died of her anger.
The commotion inside startled the people outside. Liao Kongmin pushed open the door first, revealing two gruesome corpses inside.
"Master Xu," Liao Kongmin called softly.
Answer me! Answer me now!
Fifteen minutes later, the body stiffened.
