“You mean sleeping with you can cure the poison?”
In that room, Qingniao heard Chu Feng’s method of detoxification and chuckled softly, “Prince Heir, you truly live up to your reputation as a philanderer. To sleep with me, you’ve come up with such a clumsy excuse!”
“Cough, cough, cough~”
Chu Feng awkwardly coughed a few times, then said solemnly, “Don’t overthink it, what I said is absolutely true.”
“Besides, if I really wanted to sleep with you, would I need an excuse?”
Qingniao heard Chu Feng’s words, pondered for a moment, and said, “Even if what you say is true, I still can’t agree.”
“If you don’t agree, then there’s only death for you!”
“Think it over carefully.”
Chu Feng finished speaking and walked out, leaving Qingniao in deep thought.
After Chu Feng left, he went directly to Ji Ruxue’s room.
Swish!
Ji Ruxue was cultivating cross-legged on the bed. Seeing Chu Feng enter, she suddenly opened her eyes, which glinted with cold killing intent.
“You still dare to appear before me,” Ji Ruxue said coldly.
“It seems you’re still quite unyielding,” Chu Feng said with a playful smile, then started walking towards her.
Bang!!!
Immediately, Ji Ruxue unleashed her Golden Core Realm cultivation and struck out with a palm towards Chu Feng.
Swish!
Chu Feng’s expression sharpened. He said, “You’ve actually broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm!”
But he showed no panic. With a grab of his right hand, he instantly seized her palm, then directly pressed her onto the bed.
No matter how Ji Ruxue tried to circulate her spiritual power, she couldn’t break free from Chu Feng’s restraint, which greatly shocked her.
Now she was at the fifth level of the Nascent Soul Realm, yet she was still subdued by this guy in an instant. Could it be that he had already broken through to the Transcendent Realm?
“It seems you, woman, still need some discipline!”
“Let your husband properly discipline you again.”
Chu Feng smiled playfully, and immediately launched a new round of conquest against this empress.
That night, the two were destined for sleeplessness.
………………
In a secluded, eerie valley within the Great Xia Dynasty,
A figure completely shrouded in black suddenly appeared.
Immediately, several figures emanating sharp killing intent appeared, all staring at the person in black with chilling glares: “Who are you? How dare you trespass into my Yellow Springs Pavilion!”
Puff, puff, puff…
The person in black said nothing. A cold light flashed in their hand, and the throats of the Yellow Springs Pavilion assassins before them spurted blood, and they all fell to the ground directly.
Then, he rushed into the valley.
Next, screams echoed through the valley.
Ten minutes later,
The entire valley was filled with a strong smell of blood, with no one left alive.
At the same time,
All the branch strongholds of the Yellow Springs Pavilion throughout the Great Xia Dynasty were massacred.
Meanwhile, in the Southern Wilderness, there was an ancient and elegant pavilion.
In a room within this pavilion,
A young woman was drinking tea, while an old man stood before her, reporting on the killing of the Ghost Market Master of Great Xia.
“He’s just a dissolute Prince Heir, no need to pay him any mind. Leave this matter for others to handle. The most important thing now is that ancient ruin; we must open it before the news leaks!” the woman said coldly.
“Yes, Miss!” the old man respectfully nodded.
………………
The next morning, early,
The streets and alleys of the Great Xia Dynasty were abuzz with discussions about Prince Zhenbei forcibly entering the Ji Family yesterday to take away the Ji Family’s eldest daughter, intending to force her into marriage.
There were even rumors that the young master of the Great Xia Bai Family was simply speaking ill of Prince Zhenbei when he was beheaded in the street by someone from the Zhenbei Royal Mansion.
And Prince Zhenbei had even declared that if the Ji Family did not agree to the marriage, he would exterminate their entire clan!
Soon, Prince Zhenbei’s series of actions—indulging his grandson to kill in the streets, forcibly marrying a commoner, and even threatening to exterminate entire clans at the slightest disagreement—directly sparked widespread public dissatisfaction and protest.
With some individuals fanning the flames, Prince Zhenbei’s reputation in Great Xia plummeted sharply.
At the same time,
In the Golden Luan Hall of the Imperial Palace,
All civil and military officials were gathered. Xia Jiutian sat on the dragon throne, listening to the officials’ reports.
Just then, the Duke of Wei suddenly knelt down, speaking with a pained expression, “Your Majesty, please do justice for your old subject!”
Although Xia Jiutian knew what had happened, he still feigned confusion and said, “Duke of Wei, what troubles you, old man?”
“Your Majesty, just last night, Chu Feng, the grandson of Prince Zhenbei, openly beheaded your old subject’s only grandson and hung his corpse for public display.”
“Your old subject’s son and daughter-in-law died young, leaving only this sole heir. Now he has been killed by Prince Zhenbei’s grandson. This has cut off the roots of my Duke of Wei Mansion, Your Majesty, please do justice for your old subject!” the Duke of Wei said, sobbing uncontrollably.
“Your Majesty, that Chu Feng, the grandson of Prince Zhenbei, is dissolute by nature. First, he forcibly married the Ji Family’s eldest daughter, then he killed the Duke of Wei’s grandson, and he even openly murdered the Ghost Market Master.”
“These crimes are too numerous to count. If he is not severely punished, where will the prestige of our Great Xia be?” Immediately, an official stepped forward and said indignantly.
Soon, another official stepped forward and said, “Reporting to Your Majesty, the various wicked deeds of Prince Zhenbei’s grandson have already caused public discontent.”
“Currently, a large number of common people and various aristocratic families led by the Bai Family are jointly protesting. If this matter is not handled properly, it may incite public outrage!”
Xia Jiutian’s eyes flickered as he said, “Then, my beloved officials, how do you think this should be handled?”
Immediately, that official knelt down and said, “Your subject humbly requests Your Majesty to execute Chu Feng as a warning to others!”
Next, more than half of the officials present all knelt down and pleaded:
“Humbly request Your Majesty to execute Chu Feng as a warning to others!”
“Humbly request Your Majesty to execute Chu Feng as a warning to others!”
“This…”
Xia Jiutian looked at the scene before him, his expression subtly changing, finding himself in a dilemma.
To have him publicly execute Chu Feng, wouldn't that be openly making an enemy of Prince Zhenbei?
But if he didn’t do so, he feared this group of officials would not let the matter rest.
“Your Majesty, if you do not do justice for your old subject today, your old subject will smash his head against the Golden Luan Hall and die!” the Duke of Wei said with a resolute expression.
“You want to smash your head to death in front of the hall, do you? Then this King will grant your wish!”
Suddenly, a cold voice came from outside the hall.
Immediately after, Chu Tiankuang, dressed in a long gown, walked in.
As Prince Zhenbei appeared, the atmosphere in the hall immediately changed, and the expressions of the various officials present shifted.
“Prince Zhenbei, you…”
The Duke of Wei looked at Chu Tiankuang’s appearance, his eyes filled with intense anger, and he was about to accuse him, but before he could finish speaking,
Chu Tiankuang took a dragon-like stride, arrived before the Duke of Wei, and with a wave of his large hand, he directly grabbed his head and slammed it hard against a pillar of the main hall.
Swish, swish, swish!!!
This scene caused Xia Jiutian and all the civil and military officials to change their expressions.
Before they could react,
Chu Tiankuang brutally slammed the Duke of Wei’s head against the pillar of the main hall.
Bang—
With a muffled thud,
The Duke of Wei’s head instantly split open, and blood splattered everywhere!
