This gave Di Yun even more realization that this is a perfect opportunity to topple the Empress.
Then, Di Yun spoke to the Celestial Emperor: "Father, currently Xiao Tianyu is not at Haotian Sect!"
"Where is he?" the Celestial Emperor asked.
"Probably in the Royal Celestial Prison, but I fear he is undergoing the Empress's punishnt!"
"What did you say, the Empress?"
"Exactly!" Seeing the shock in the Celestial Emperor's eyes, Di Yun seized the opportunity and continued, "Today at Haotian Sect, the Empress personally descended and ordered Lin Congyun to escort Xiao Tianyu back. Does Father not know about this?"
"Outrageous, this Empress is too outrageous!" The Celestial Emperor roared, his eyes blazing with furious anger. He still needs Xiao Tianyu to help him conquer the world, and now the Empress has overstepped her bounds, acting on her own accord, and imprisoned Xiao Tianyu?
Moreover, the Celestial Emperor knew very well that Xiao Tianyu spared the Empress out of respect for him; otherwise, not even ten Empresses would be enough for Xiao Tianyu to kill, let alone imprison him.
"Calm down, Father!" Di Yun advised.
He was clever and did not question Xiao Tianyu's identity, because he understood one principle, if the Celestial Emperor wants to speak, he doesn't need to be asked. If he doesn't speak, asking would be pointless, and might even incur the Celestial Emperor's displeasure.
"Calm down, my foot!" The Celestial Emperor cursed, continuing, "Does the Empress not know that Xiao Tianyu carries my imperial granted Jade Pendant? Seeing the Jade Pendant is like seeing !"
"She knows!" Di Yun fanned the flas, continuing, "The Empress completely disregarded that Jade Pendant. She plans to act first and report later. But Father shouldn't overly bla the Empress; after all, Eldest Brother is her only son, and it's normal for her to be overprotective!"
Di Yun fanned the flas from the side, still pretending to defend the Empress, which was his cleverness, thereby increasing his standing in the Celestial Emperor's eyes.
"This Empress dares ignore my granted Jade Pendant, what does she want? Does she wish to take my throne?" The Celestial Emperor's anger continued, and a voice was heard outside the hall: "Old Qing, enter the hall!"
As the voice fell, Old Qing sauntered into the grand hall, bowing respectfully to the Celestial Emperor, "Celestial Emperor, what are your orders?"
"Take my decree, go to Haotian Sect and bring back the Empress, have her wait for
outside the prison!" The Celestial Emperor's voice was ominous, leaving Old Qing bewildered. The Empress is a mother figure to the nation, waiting at the prison is considered very inauspicious.
Thus, Old Qing couldn't help but ask, "Great Emperor, this…"
"If I tell you to go, just go!" After saying that, the Celestial Emperor tossed a decree, which Old Qing picked up and imdiately left the hall, while the Celestial Emperor turned to Di Yun, continuing, "Yun'Er, go to the prison and bring Lin Congyun to !"
"Yes, Father!" Di Yun nodded, exited the hall, his heart equally filled with shock and also joy, for the developnt of events far surpassed his expectations.
...
The Royal Celestial Prison is located underground at the south gate of the Imperial City, built a hundred ters deep underground, further enveloped by a terrifying Rune Array that even a super expert at the Martial Venerable level cannot break.
Therefore, once imprisoned, even a Martial Venerable shouldn't dream of escaping the prison.
At this mont, the prison housed nurous raggedly dressed criminals, all with a 'prisoner' symbol seared onto their chests, and every ti soone passed through the prison corridor, these prisoners would start wailing like ghosts.
As for Xiao Tianyu, he was locked in the cell at the very end of the second row, and Lin Congyun had not left.
As for Xiao Tianyu, wearing shackles on both hands, sat indifferently in the center of the cell, as if in his eyes, the cell was his ho, and it didn't feel like imprisonnt at all.
Seeing this, Lin Congyun outside the cell was very annoyed and coldly snorted, "Xiao Tianyu, don't be complacent, when the Empress returns, it will be your ti to die!"
"I fear it's not
but you who will die!" Xiao Tianyu's face remained calm as always.
