"Antidote? When I was refining this pill, I never intended to leave a way out, so naturally, there is no antidote."
Jing’an said indifferently, "But rest assured, you won’t die for a while, you can still drag on for so ti."
"Hahaha!"
Emperor Anqing suddenly laughed crazily. He wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth and said spitefully, "This is ridiculous. All of this is because of my arrogance. Ziyin, it is my fault. I should have listened to you back then. I was too obsessed with the pursuit of eternal life, too stubborn, which is why I fell for this sinister and deadly move!"
"Your Majesty, you will be fine. You still have to take care of and the Crown Prince."
The Empress, seeing him spit blood, was in a panic and struggled to move forward, but she was firmly restrained.
"Forr Emperor, you are shaless!"
Seeing her own son in such a state, the Taifei angrily cursed, "Even a vicious tiger won’t eat its own cub. You really are a selfish dictator. Is your ambition so strong that you must resurrect yourself even after death? Do you want to destroy the entire Great Chao Country before you’re satisfied?"
"Beloved concubine, if you don’t want to speak with that pretty face of yours, then shut up. Otherwise, I don’t mind poisoning you mute."
The Forr Emperor dismissed this. He gestured, and the Empress Dowager, who had been hiding behind him, eagerly approached. "Your Majesty, I have always been by your side, waiting for you to ascend the throne so I can continue to stay with you."
The Forr Emperor lifted her chin and, seeing her shy expression, said disdainfully, "You’ve aged, yet you pretend to show such expressions. It’s revolting. Do you think you can remain by my side now that I’ve assud this identity? What a joke. Do you want the world to laugh at for disregarding ethics? Although you have helped greatly, unfortunately, your existence is unnecessary."
With that said, he grabbed the Empress Dowager’s neck and began to absorb her yang energy!
Ahhhhh—
The Empress Dowager never imagined she would be personally killed by her beloved, emitting a scream and dying at his hands before she could struggle.
"This is sorcery. You’re violating the rules of Heavenly Dao!"
Yu Nianzhao coldly looked up at the pitch-black sky, mocked, "No thunder now? So-called Heavenly Dao only strikes us who hold iron rice bowls?"
Without further words, Yu Nianzhao ford seals with her hands, sending runes imbued with thunderous power flying towards the Forr Emperor.
"Ahhh!"
The Forr Emperor was caught off guard, hit by the runes, smoke sputtering from his body painfully.
"Mother!"
Xie Yunzhe’s voice returned, his body constantly shifting between two shadows, his expression filled with pain, as he competed for control with the Forr Emperor.
"Yunzhe, my child!"
Princess An Nan saw this scene, her wrists already rubbed raw and bleeding. With cold sweat, she struggled tirelessly and broke free of her restraints, lunging to save her son.
"Just in ti!"
The Forr Emperor’s eyes turned fierce as he grabbed Princess An Nan and began to absorb her yang energy.
"Old and shaless, you never truly valued ."
Yu Nianzhao was furious. She wielded the Blade of Judgnt and flew onto the platform. Prince An Nan followed her closely to stop her.
Xie Jiuxiao also flew over, kicking Prince An Nan away.
The Blade of Judgnt in Yu Nianzhao’s hand lengthened, and she slashed across Xie Yunzhe’s arm. The Forr Emperor attached to him scread and hurriedly released his grip.
Princess An Nan, already drained and aged by ten years, lay on the ground still concerned about Xie Yunzhe’s safety.
"Damn it!"
The Forr Emperor swiftly escaped, grabbing the bound Pei Yunzhi and, ignoring her screams, drained her to a husk.
"This body’s control is mine, fool!"
The Forr Emperor continuously scread, pointing at Yu Nianzhao, "You don’t want the chance to join ? You can share the world with in the future."
"Not interested!"
Yu Nianzhao had no desire for this.
Seeing that she was unyielding, the Forr Emperor jumped off the sacrificial platform and had Jing’an block her.
"Quickly, kill them all!"
The Forr Emperor ordered impatiently.
Jing’an furrowed his brow, "Though there are many puppets, they have Mirror Demons in hand. I’m afraid it won’t be easy."
"Fools, a bunch of fools! I thought you were already strategized, which is why you resurrected . What’s the point if there’s no full assurance?"
In fury, the Forr Emperor jumped.
"If the Forr Emperor hadn’t forcibly tied to him, I wouldn’t still be doing such harmful and futile deeds."
Jing’an sighed deeply, a hint of lancholy on his brow as he stared at Yu Nianzhao, "Miss Yu, you are indeed an extraordinary talent. If you win in the end, please give a swift end."
Yu Nianzhao raised her eyebrow and said, "You’re quite aware of your fate!"
"Perhaps."
Jing’an said blandly, "Each serves their master, but I’ll still try my best to survive."
The sound of bells grew increasingly urgent, and those puppets clustered in front of the Forr Emperor and his group, forming a dense mass of black.
"They want to escape!"
Xie Jiuxiao spotted their intentions and imdiately pursued them.
The puppets blocked them. Yu Nianzhao released a golden insect to track them.
Once the puppets of An Nan Royal Mansion had been cleaned up, the ground was littered with corpses, and the scene was chaotic.
"Cough cough cough cough—"
People were carried away, guards also ran off, the Empress hugged the child and rushed to Emperor Anqing’s side, hearing his loud coughing, she beca imdiately anxious, "Your Majesty, are you okay?"
Emperor Anqing’s face was pale, looking as if he had been drained of yang
energy.
"Cough cough cough cough, I’m... I’m alright. Quickly pursue them, not for , but for the entire Great Chao Country. If Father succeeds, the Great Chao Country will be dood."
Emperor Anqing regretted profoundly, feeling his life slipping away, he grabbed Xie Jiuxiao’s hand and urged, "If I can’t hold on, you must protect this country well and treat my brother’s wife and children kindly."
Xie Jiuxiao replied with tears in his eyes, "Brother, you will be absolutely fine."
"Prince, they have already disappeared."
Mu Hongxuan was covered in wounds, bringing the Dragon Shadow Guards to provide assistance.
"No matter, they can’t escape."
Yu Nianzhao’s tracking butterfly relayed information back to her. She gripped the Blade of Judgnt and slowly walked outside, "Looks like we need to head to Tomb Guard City ahead of schedule."
"Tomb Guard City?"
"Yes, they went towards Tomb Guard City."
Yu Nianzhao turned back, saying, "Whether they’re going to devour evil spirits or release them, neither is good."
"Yes, Zhaozhao is right!"
Emperor Anqing gathered his energy, "Mr. Dongfang, heed my orders. The mystical families join Yu Nianzhao in support. Follow her commands, and make sure to guard Tomb Guard City. Do not let the tragedy repeat."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Dongfang Hong understood the severity of the situation and quickly responded with a gesture.
