At this moment, the old man in the Prince's Mansion couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, his eyes full of provocation.
He deliberately exposed this flaw, waiting for Gu Yunni and the others to come over. In that case, don't blame him for being rude.
He still remembered the injustice he suffered at the hands of Gu Yunni, and today was the day to avenge himself for that humiliation.
Gu Yunni's expression suddenly changed, and she immediately sensed something was wrong. "It's a trap! This is the most powerful little devil. Stop hiding it, use all your strength to fight this little devil back."
She said that this person would not be so easy to deal with, and it turned out that he was waiting for her here.
She joined forces with the Imperial Master, unleashing their greatest abilities and beating the brat back repeatedly.
It’s just a little ghost, no matter how powerful it is, what can it do?
The Imperial Master and Gu Yunni put in a lot of effort and finally defeated the little ghost.
The old man opposite spat out another mouthful of blood, and this time it really backfired on him.
"What's going on? Didn't you say this wasn't a challenge for you? Why are you being beaten back so hard? Why not ask Aruo for help? Even though he's not in good health, he can still use some of his energy. It's better than you resisting alone."
The old man sat in front of Du Changming while casting the spell.
Du Changming was originally full of confidence, but now looking at the old man's appearance, he felt a little uneasy.
Still not working!
When will he be able to break free from Gu Yunni's spell and completely defeat them?
"No need! Your original intention was just to cause panic. Now that panic has been caused, there is no need to push too hard. I will go back and rest. I will give you a satisfactory answer tomorrow." The old man waved his hand and did not want to cooperate with Aruo.
Even though Aruo is his disciple, the two of them haven't been in contact for many years and they no longer have the tacit understanding they once had.
Moreover, he didn't want Aruo to steal his limelight.
Du Changming didn't dare to continue asking questions, so he had to let the old man go back to his room.
What the old man said was indeed correct. Today's goal has been achieved, and there is no need to keep pursuing it.
Coincidentally, at this time, Gu Yunni and the Imperial Master also ran out of energy.
"Alright! Just grab a random imp. The opponent is already unwilling to continue the fight, so we can relax a bit now."
After feeling that the opponent was not that powerful, Gu Yunni felt relieved. She was really afraid that any more accidents would happen.
This old man is really extraordinary, and we can't take him lightly.
I knew he was powerful before, but now after a serious confrontation with him, I realize just how outrageous he is.
Regardless of whether they are on the right path or not, their strength should not be underestimated.
Even if you look down on it, you have to admit it.
"Although you died of illness and must be resentful, this is also your fate. Why don't you reincarnate well and continue to be a human in the next life?"
The old man went to rest, but Gu Yunni and the others did not rest. After catching the little ghost, they began to interrogate him.
The old man's abilities were extraordinary, and he was also very good at controlling the little ghosts.
But if this kid hadn't intentionally cooperated, how could it have caused such a huge panic?
If you want to solve the problem, it won’t be too difficult as long as you convince the little devil.
"You! You are all trash!"
As soon as the little ghost heard what Gu Yunni said, he became so angry that his eyes turned red.
"Do you think I want to? I placed all my hopes on the imperial court, but the imperial court still caused all four of us in my family to die of illness! If it weren't for my daughter and son continuing to stay in this world, why would I listen to that person?"
When the little ghost spoke, his tone was full of tears, but he couldn't shed a single tear.
He is a ghost and has long lost his human abilities.
But we still have to hate when we should. Even ghosts that have not been reincarnated will remember what they did in their previous lives.
"No matter how powerful the imperial court is, it can't take care of everything. Why do you blame others for all these grievances? If only you were willing to reincarnate, you would already be living a happy and stable life."
This is the robber theory.
She met many little ghosts who had the same idea.
What if I was wronged? As long as I was reborn and continued to be a human in the next life, wouldn’t that be a new beginning?
What was the purpose of her existence as a sorcerer? Wasn't it to redress the grievances of these little ghosts? Why did she have to bring disaster to the people?
“Have mercy!”
Originally, Gu Yunni was ready for a heated argument, but the kid in front of her just knelt on the ground and cried for mercy.
"That was never my intention. I had already made an agreement with that person, and we agreed on what to do. But he's since gone beyond the agreement, and it's no use going back on it. I'm just a little kid, how could I possibly handle a sorcerer like you?"
The little ghost was also helpless. He knew that he had done something wrong and wanted to regret it, but how could he possibly fight against the old man with his ability?
To be honest, he was somewhat grateful to Gu Yunni for her sudden appearance. Even if he would be punished, it allowed him to escape.
"This..." Gu Yunni was very embarrassed and didn't know how to react.
This kid's original intention was indeed wrong, but he became uncontrollable afterwards.
Although she had never been a ghost, she was familiar with this aspect and naturally knew that the little ghost's ability was weak.
"Well, in the end, it's still about that old man. Just stay here quietly and don't do anything wrong again. We'll keep you locked up for the next few days."
The Imperial Master frowned, he had seen too many such things and knew who was at fault and who was not, so he did not blame the little ghost.
The old man has the prince as his backer, so he is not easy to deal with.
Seeing that time was getting later, Gu Yunni did not delay any longer and turned back to her room to rest.
Anyway, things have come to this point and there is no way to go on. The most important thing is to take care of yourself.
The next morning, before Sheng Mingyu got up, there was a knock on the door.
"Is Your Highness here? I have received an imperial decree and have come to assist you. I beg Your Highness to come out and see me."
Coincidentally, Gu Yunni's room was next to Sheng Mingyu's, and she also heard the knock on the door.
She was very upset. Why couldn't she escape the curse of this family?
No matter where I am, they will always find me.
Sheng Mingyu was also completely bewildered. "Marquis of Changping? What do you want from me? What decree has His Majesty issued? Why didn't he send a eunuch to deliver the decree, but you?"
He was a little curious. What had happened with the Emperor? He had been quite calm these past few days, with nothing to report, so why was there suddenly a problem?
Marquis Changping had a flattering smile on his face. "Don't be nervous, Your Highness. I'm the one requesting your permission today to help you manage the plague and help the people. What can I do for you? Please feel free to tell me what you want, and don't hesitate. Although I'm old and frail, I can still do a lot."
