"And him?"
"My lord has gone out on business, but the manor needs a regent, so I had no choice but to come..."
Emperor Junlan glanced at Jin Shisan, then turned and left in a huff.
Jin Shisan made a face behind him.
I slowly pushed the wheelchair away, it was a bit of a struggle, I don't know how my master managed to get through all this time.
...
Murong Jin stood at the foot of the cliff. There was a cave there, on the mountain east of the capital, not far away.
The group all wore masks. Murong Jin stood with his hands behind his back. "According to our spies, this is their hideout."
A tall figure landed behind her in a flash. "Master."
"How are the others?"
The man behind her, wearing a black mask, said, "We've found Yi Yi's mark."
The person behind him was Jin Shiliu, who usually stayed in the shadows and never appeared unless there was danger.
"Everyone is ready."
Jin Shiliu: "It's all arranged. Some people will go in first to scout the terrain, and then the others will follow."
Murong Jin nodded and looked at Jin Wanyue, who was wearing a golden mask. "Madam, are you ready?"
"No problem." She could summon all the insects in the mountains with just one song, including poisonous insects, snakes, and ants.
On one side, they are penetrating deep into enemy territory, while on the other side...
As soon as Emperor Junlan got into the carriage, the streets were quiet. It was normal for no one to be around at this time, since it was already the middle of the night.
I just don't know where Murong Jin went. Jin Shisan's disguise is so bad...
"His Majesty."
The voice of the guards came from outside. Di Junlan looked up at the roof of the carriage, and then quickly flew away.
With a bang, the carriage exploded, and Di Junlan landed on the ground not far away.
Assassination.
"Protect our master!!!"
In an instant, many hidden guards appeared in the shadows, and Di Junlan stood there, watching the men in black robes.
Judging from the situation, they're probably after him.
After luring Murong Jin away, he became their target.
Hearing that melodious voice, Emperor Junlan raised an eyebrow slightly.
Another wizard?
Judging from this situation, it must be the Western Region wizard that Murong Jin mentioned.
After all, there aren't many wizards in Jinling Kingdom, and besides, that person is now with Murong Jin handling some business...
Emperor Junlan stood there, looking at the men in black robes, his guards, and the insects that had appeared because of the sound.
The ground was covered with all sorts of insects.
The moment the hidden weapon struck, Di Junlan slightly turned his head to dodge the attack, and then his figure disappeared, landing behind the black-robed man who had launched the hidden weapon.
With a swift movement, the black-robed man fell to the ground.
Emperor Junlan drew a whip from his waist and then joined the battle.
Time passed slowly, and with a bang, all the attacking men in black robes were killed on the ground.
Di Junlan looked at the person high up.
"As expected of His Majesty the Great Cheng."
Emperor Lan: "Heh, Your Excellency has come to me for help, is it because you need something?" His eyes were full of disdain.
Suddenly, some rustling sounds were heard, and the man in black robes shouted.
"withdraw!"
After watching those people leave, Di Junlan then looked at An Kesen and Yu Jing'er running towards him from a distance.
Di Junlan felt a sudden stinging pain in his fingertip. He reached out and saw a tiny scorpion on his hand, about the size of a grain of rice.
"His Majesty."
Ankesen and his group sensed something was amiss that night, so they rushed over. They had intended to go to the Regent's Palace, but instead, they encountered the assassinated Emperor there.
Seeing the black spot on Di Junlan's finger, An Kesen's expression changed. "Jing'er, quickly show His Majesty what this is."
Yu Jing'er glanced at it and her face showed surprise. "It's a Gu worm, and a Gu King at that."
"Your Majesty, please return to the palace immediately."
Emperor Junlan felt no discomfort at the moment, and was about to say that he would return to the palace when his vision suddenly became blurry.
Ankesen caught the person who had just fainted with lightning speed, "Is it too late?"
Yu Jing'er examined him and said, "I don't know much about this either. After all, there are all kinds of insects in the Western Regions. Let's go to the nearest place to have His Majesty take a look."
Ankesen looked at the guards: "Go to the Regent's Palace."
They rushed the man to the Regent's Palace, and for a moment there was some chaos.
...
Inside the cave.
Murong Jin and his group did not find anything unusual along the way.
Until they reached the center of the cave, and saw the people below who had been used for human experiments, their faces covered in red sores, their eyes blackened, no longer recognizable as human, but rather as corpses…
Jin Wanyue immediately felt that these people were not human.
"Depend on."
Hearing the angry voices beside her, Murong Jin thought that her aunt, Di Junlan, was a person of strong character.
He uttered two words in a somber tone, "Take it down."
Jin Shiliu and his group of guards immediately rushed forward, while Jin Wanyue took out her secret weapon and began to play the flute behind Murong Jin.
Upon hearing this sound, followed by a very slight rustling sound, Murong Jin looked at the insects on the wall and realized that Jin Wanyue was luring the insects over.
To be precise, it controlled the insects in the surrounding area.
"ah!!!"
A scream came from deep within. Murong Jin stood there, listening to Jin Wanyue's flute playing.
The melody was beautiful, and she understood how to play it...
However, she doesn't know how to control these insects, while Qu Zi does, but doesn't know how to use them.
After a night passed, the next day, Murong Jin had those who had been used for experiments examine Jin Wanyue and then asked, "Is there any hope for her?"
