You didn’t speak because this was exactly the issue you were most worried about.
Right now, you were eager to find out the root cause of this phenonon on Zhao’er, as only by finding it could you think of a way to save her.
However, you had already used the Sen Luo Eye to examine Zhao’er just now and found that her life force was indeed gradually depleting, and you noticed that Zhao’er’s life force seed even weaker than that of ordinary people!
This discovery made you feel as if soone was tightly choking your throat, leaving you breathless for a mont.
Your mother thought for a mont, then suddenly asked, "By the way, who did Zhao’er go out with this ti?"
"The Empress," you reflexively blurted out, then shuddered!
That’s right, the Empress!
The Empress had a complex connection with Zhao’er, and she must have taken her away because she had discovered sothing or because there was so association between them to a certain extent.
You suddenly stood up and walked toward the window. Through it, you saw that the Empress had already driven away in the limousine downstairs.
"I’m stepping out for a mont!"
Seeing you hurriedly leave the house, Zhao’er naturally stood up, wanting to follow you out.
Your mother grabbed Zhao’er’s jade hand and said with a smile, "Good girl Zhao’er, stay with mom and watch TV for a while."
"But, Yun..."
"Oh, he’s probably out to et his little lover, don’t mind him."
"What’s a little lover?" Zhao’er asked your mother, looking confused.
"It’s a type of cookie you can eat, I’ll bring you so when he returns."
You, who had already put on your shoes, quickly intercepted your mother’s words and said to Zhao’er.
"Okay."
Zhao’er nodded slightly, showing you a serene smile that belonged only to you.
"All Forms of Sen Luo, Light Circle Curse!"
Half an hour later, you parked your car on the road outside a private residence.
The limousine that the Empress had been in was parked in front of the residence, and you hurriedly walked over.
"Please stop."
A black-clad man standing at the gate reached out his hand to hinder your progress.
"I’m looking for the Empress."
The man in black hesitated and then spoke, "I’m sorry, I’m just a gatekeeper; without the master’s command, I can’t let you in."
"Tell the people inside, just say Li Muyun has co to visit."
The man in black nodded slightly, whispered a few words into a walkie-talkie.
Not long after, Dong Fangxiao, dressed in purple, ca out smilingly and said to you, "Master Li, it’s rare to see you."
"Where is the Empress?"
Not wanting to engage in a lengthy conversation with Dong Fangxiao, you cut to the chase.
"The Empress has gone to rest."
"I want to see her."
"Hey, didn’t you hear what I said? The Empress has gone to rest."
"Did you not hear ? I want to see her!"
Your eyes widened fiercely, the Sen Luo Curse Mark quickly manifested, and soon two turning Sen Luo Curse Marks appeared in Dong Fangxiao’s pupils.
"Alright, I’ll take you to see her now."
Only after you followed Dong Fangxiao into the residence did you realize that there were many hidden chanisms and spies lurking in the shadows. If you had recklessly scaled the wall earlier, you might have been imdiately assassinated by dozens of guards!
When you arrived outside the Empress’s Bedroom, standing about ten ters away, Dong Fangxiao knelt on one knee and said in a low voice, "The Empress, Li Muyun requests an audience."
The room inside fell silent for a while, but soon the voice of the Empress ca out, "Let him in."
"Yes."
Dong Fangxiao stood up and motioned you inside with a gesture.
Honestly, you had a very poor, no, extrely poor impression of the Empress!
She was like a dagger steeped in deadly poison, and a slight scratch from her would poison soone to death!
Although you really didn’t want to go in, there was no choice as this was all for Zhao’er.
You pushed open the door, revealing a spacious room that seed to be a living room. You scanned it briefly but did not see the Empress.
Frowning slightly, you strode inside.
"Empress?"
"Co in."
The voice of the Empress ca from behind a screen.
"Alright."
As you walked around the screen, what appeared before you was a wooden archway. Entering the archway, there were two rooms on each side; the voice of the Empress was coming from the right room.
You stepped into the room on the right, which was also decorated very elegantly and simply. Soon, a door appeared in front of you.
Without much thought, you grabbed the doorknob and gently pulled the double doors open.
As you looked up—"Ugh!"
You spun around swiftly!
Bananas and two char sius!
The Empress was actually taking a bath!
"Oh? Feeling shy?" The voice of the Empress carried a teasing tone. At that mont, she was enveloped in mist, and though only a vague outline was visible, even that outline could trigger endless reveries.
Of course, if it had been any other girl, perhaps it was a boundlessly enchanting illusion, but as the person was the Empress, what you felt was only fright.
"You ca to find ...what for?"
At that mont, the voice of the Empress was lazy, carrying a unique magnetism, like a tempting Curse, making one involuntarily conjure up various illusions after hearing it.
With your back toward the Empress, although the distance between the two of you exceeded four or five ters, it felt as though the Empress were standing right behind you, the dispersing mist like a pair of soft, slippery hands...
"Heart Clarity Spell!"
A Yellow Charm flew out of your pocket, instantly dispersing the surrounding mist without a trace.
"Yo, quite a good Dao Level there, interesting."
"Alright, I don’t have ti to play with you." No longer bothering to engage with the Empress, you suddenly turned around, your gaze firmly fixed on the Empress soaking in the steaming bath.
The Empress stretched her long legs in the water, causing slight waves, her posture leisurely and her smile ambiguous as she looked at you.
"Speak if you have sothing, I’m listening."
You tried your best not to look at the enticing form of the Empress as she spoke, "Why did you take Zhao’er out? Did you discover sothing?"
After hearing this, the Empress’s brow furrowed and she asked, "What do you an by that?"
The Empress imdiately sensed a killing intent; she thought you had figured out the connection she shared with Zhao’er.
You sensed the killing intent released by the Empress right away and hastily stepped back several steps, your gaze icy as you looked at the Empress, "You want to kill ? So, Zhao’er’s depletion of life force is related to you?"
"Hmm? What are you talking about! Zhao’er’s life force is depleting!?"
The Empress abruptly stood up!
