Qi Sichen was furious and was about to scold the useless guys he had sent when he turned around and saw that Eunuch Liu and several guards were pinned to the wall by a gust of wind and unable to move.
He immediately guessed that this must have been Lin Wanyue's doing, probably because she was afraid those people would cause trouble.
Because of the constant strong winds, Qi Sichen's other guards who rushed over did not dare to approach easily.
"Wanwan, are you alright over here? What's with this strange wind?" Qi Sichen wanted to go over, but he was a little worried that he would end up like those guards, getting slammed against the wall.
Lin Wanyue turned to Qi Sichen and smiled: "Godfather, I'm fine."
Although she still doesn't understand what Liu Shuhua is, she has already severely damaged it, so cleaning it up won't be too troublesome.
"That's good..." Qi Sichen felt a little relieved and continued to call out to Lin Wanyue, "Wanwan, this wind... could we go over and help you?"
"No need, you can stay there," Lin Wanyue said without turning her head.
She didn't want so many people to gather around, in case someone was unlucky enough to be grabbed by Liu Shuhua and absorbed as nourishment.
That would be even more troublesome to clean up yourself.
Hearing the commotion, Qi Sichen wasn't the only one who chased after them.
Apart from the emperor, who was left behind by Qi Sichen to control the situation, all the other royal relatives and nobles who could freely enter and leave the palace also rushed over here.
This matter was not just a pastime for ordinary people in the county; even these high-ranking and wealthy figures were drawn to it.
"This is...this is Sister Liu? How did she become like this?" Consort Su, holding her son's hand, recognized Liu Shuhua, who had been knocked to the ground by Lin Wanyue, and screamed in fright.
The other imperial concubines, of course, recognized Liu Shuhua, who was shrouded in a black mist, and saw the two corpses of guards lying beside her, their bones and blood drained. They were all terrified and dared not even breathe.
Qi Sichen heard Consort Su's voice, glanced in her direction, and gestured for the woman to be quiet.
However, he really didn't have time to pay attention to these women. With his brows furrowed, he stared at Lin Wanyue and saw that he wondered how much stuff his obedient and gentle goddaughter had hidden in her sleeves.
He took out two talismans and stuck them on Liu Shuhua's face, then took out a small round mirror and looked it at Liu Shuhua.
"Ahhhhhhh—" Liu Shuhua was seeing the round little mirror in her eyes when she suddenly went into a frenzy, screaming out in her throat.
The body, which had been immobilized by the talisman, also unleashed a tremendous impact, rolling violently on the ground.
Liu Shuhua even reached out and gouged at her own eyes, managing to pry out two black eyeballs. Black blood flowed from her eyes, and she spat out several white and tender maggots from her mouth.
The fifth and sixth princes, who were not very old, were so frightened by what they saw that they burst into tears.
The two brothers usually didn't fight or exchange pleasantries when they met, but this time they huddled together, trembling: "Mother, what is this thing? It's terrifying... Is it a ghost? It's so scary."
The imperial concubines were truly terrified when they saw this scene.
"Yue!" Several people clutched their chests and began to gag.
Others might have less contact with Liu Shuhua, but they had lived together in Chunqiu Pavilion for several years and could be said to see each other almost every day.
But now, I see the person I used to see every day has turned into a monster that can not only gouge out my eyes, but also spit out worms.
Who wouldn't be afraid of that?
Both Consort Su and Consort Liu suppressed their fear, held their sons in their arms, and gently comforted them, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, the little princess is here... I heard that the little princess is very capable, she will definitely be alright!"
But the Fifth Prince and the Sixth Prince refused to listen, shaking their heads while crying, saying, "That little girl is so young, what skills could she possibly have? Should we run away quickly, or will this monster catch us and eat us?"
"Sixth Prince, I think those two corpses lying on the ground were probably eaten by this monster. Could we end up like that too? I don't want to die. I still have so much silver to spend and so much food to eat. I don't want to die!" the Fifth Prince said, wiping away his tears.
Qi Sichen glanced at them disdainfully and said coldly, "Shut up!"
He didn't want to deal with these guys, but they mentioned Lin Wanyue in their conversation.
What little brat?
She is clearly their noble little princess of the Great Yan!
These two useless bastards who were so scared of monsters that they almost wet their pants dared to look down on his goddaughter!
Lin Wanyue was focused solely on dealing with Liu Shuhua. She had just taken out several kinds of talismans to test what kind of person Liu Shuhua really was.
She discovered that the Thunderfire Talisman was the most effective way to deal with Liu Shuhua.
This is not surprising. Regardless of whether Liu Shuhua is the Insect King or the Ghost King, she is ultimately afraid of fire. Once burned, she would not be able to escape no matter how powerful she is.
This is the law of cause and effect.
Because of these causes and effects, even if the father is the way of heaven, he cannot go against heaven.
What we are defying is not the way of Heaven itself, but the law of cause and effect within it.
Perhaps sensing that she might die here, Liu Shuhua used all her strength to lunge at Lin Wanyue, her target being the Chenzhou Talisman that Lin Wanyue was holding.
However, Liu Shuhua was still too slow. Lin Wanyue had already spread her hand and taken a handful of thunder and fire talismans, which she then sprinkled directly on Liu Shuhua.
Bright flames suddenly burst forth on Liu Shuhua's body. These flames were of various colors, some were the common bright yellow, some were green, and some were even blue. Red flames also crackled and popped on her body.
Liu Shuhua looked up and opened her mouth, a black mist spewing out, but instead of screaming as before.
Even though no sound came out, the people standing not far away still instinctively covered their ears.
Qi Sichen felt a tickle in his ears, as if some insects were about to crawl out.
He quickly reached out and touched his ear, then took it off and saw that blood was flowing out.
Isn't this thing a bit too powerful?
The black mist was completely burned away by the colorful flames on Liu Shuhua's body. She herself rolled on the ground in agony, her hair, clothes, skin, and bones all being devoured by the inextinguishable colorful flames.
Liu Shuhua could no longer make a sound; she could only writhe on the ground in great pain.
