"Hahaha. Princess Shuiyue, are you desperate? What poison did bengong give the emperor? I'm afraid I should be asking you what kind of demonic technique you used on the emperor?”Hearing Zhang Zixun's words, Mei Ji, who thought she had won, laughed. However, Prime Minister Li Hun, who had been standing not far away from Zhang Zixun, seemed to be more clear-headed. At this moment, he was staring at Zhang Zixun warily. He had advised Mei Ji more than once. She was the Jade Emperor's daughter. The Heaven couldn't miss her every move. It was best not to provoke her if possible. Otherwise, she would bring trouble to herself. However, Mei Ji didn't put Zhang Zixun in her eyes since she was confident in her power. Thus, Li Hun, who always obeyed her, had to let her do whatever she wanted until now. However, Li Hun, who had always been cautious, did not think that Zhang Zixun was so stupid that she would be poisoned by the wild goose sand. Therefore, he had always been on guard against her. Just now, Mei Ji had used a magic technique to restrict her movements. She had also used an illusion to make them see that Zhang Zixun was a snake. It was because they hadn't prepared for this. Moreover, they had attacked at the same time. Otherwise, they wouldn't have succeeded.
"Zhang Zixun, are you still trying to frame others for your quibbling? Tell me, what did you do to my Imperial Father? Why is he in so much pain?" Seeing that Zhang Zixun had directly pointed the spearhead at Consort Xian, the Second Prince hardened his heart and berated her. The sword in his hand was already placed on Zhang Zixun's neck. The sharp blade left a bloody mark on her fair skin, and blood slowly flowed down along with the sword. Zhao Zecheng was shocked and immediately wanted to stop, but at this moment, he saw Zhang Zixun's face full of despair. Her expression was sorrowful, and tears fell slowly. Her tone was cold and emotionless as she said,"Attack! Make a move now! Didn't you think I was a monster? If you don't kill me now, you might die in my hands in the next moment!”
"You." Hearing this, Zhao Zecheng's heart ached. He could not bear to do anything to her. He did this just to make her tell the truth, but he did not expect her to be so stubborn.
"Second brother, don't be rash!" Seeing Zhao Zecheng actually use his sword against Zhang Zixun, Zhao Zeyi's heart suddenly became anxious and he blurted out. Zhang Zixun turned her head in despair and looked at Zhao Zeyi with tears on her face. This was her first friend."Do you trust me?" His voice was filled with sorrow. Hearing her desperate tone, Zhao Zeyi's heart ached even more. His hands trembled and the sword fell to the ground with a clang. Zhao Zeyi took a few steps back and fell to the ground.
"Zeyi." Zhang Zixun could not help but call out softly. At this moment, when Zhao Zecheng saw their expressions, he was already in despair."Hahaha. It seems that he is more important than me in your heart!”As soon as he finished speaking, it was the first time he saw this dignified prince shed tears of sadness. He slowly let go of Zhang Zixun. The sword in his hand fell unconsciously and he left sadly. He no longer wanted to care about anything here. Losing the person he loved the most was a greater blow than anything else. Seeing this scene, a trace of ruthlessness flashed through Consort Xian's eyes. She thought to herself,""What a useless thing! I originally wanted to borrow your hands to remove the obstacles in front of me, but I didn't expect to be so deeply charmed by this wretched girl. Looks like I have to do it myself!”As he thought about it, a cold light flashed in his eyes as he charged towards Zhang Zixun. At the same time, the latter had been prepared for her. Purple light flashed in his eyes as a beam of immortal light shot toward Mei Ji's face. Seeing this, Mei Ji sneered." Humph! How much energy do you think you have left after being hit by my Falling Goose Sand?"”As he spoke, he casually scattered it.
Zhao Zeyi, who was sitting on the steps of the hall, saw everything clearly. He couldn't react for a moment."Why did Consort Xian suddenly become so powerful, to be able to fly in the air?”At this moment, a hurried voice sounded,""Zeyi, do you see it now? Don't ask anything. Take good care of my parents, the emperor, and the empress. If I'm not wrong, the poison that the emperor has been inflicted with is the poison of the Falling Goose Sand. No one in the world can cure this poison, but I will deal with this monster as soon as possible. If the emperor can hold on until then, I have my own way to deal with it!”
"Humph! So you really weren't poisoned. Looks like I underestimated you! But even so, you can't even protect yourself now. How can you care about others?”Mei Ji sneered. The sword in her hand reached Zhang Zixun's throat as planned. Zhang Zixun was secretly surprised,'When did this demon's power increase again? It seems like she's getting harder and harder to deal with!”Zhang Zixun leaped up and pulled some distance away from him. She said coldly,"This place is too small. If you have the ability, let's fight somewhere else!”
"Hehe. I'm not sure. How could I not see through your little tricks? Aren't you afraid of hurting the mortals here?”Mei Ji revealed a subtle smile. She agreed readily."Alright, since our princess has such a compassionate heart and is unwilling to hurt the innocent, then I'll treat it as doing a good deed today. However, I advise you to consider carefully. Without your protective magic treasure, are you really my match?”
"You don't have to worry about this matter. We'll only know who will win after the competition!”Zhang Zixun's expression was calm. She released her aura without holding back, and the pressure of an immortal was immediately displayed. Mei Ji was also surprised."I didn't expect that not only did this little girl not get poisoned by the Falling Goose Sand, but her power has also increased. It seems that little girl Qing 'er is unreliable. Fortunately, she ran fast. Otherwise, she would have died under my sword!”Zhang Zixun glanced at Zhao Zeyi and flew into the sky with a rainbow light. Mei Ji sneered and signaled to Li Hun behind her. The latter nodded. He pretended to chase after her. At this moment, he heard someone say,"Wait!”Zhao Zeyi immediately stood in front of Mei Ji. Although he was neither an immortal nor a demon, his martial arts had long reached the realm of perfection. It was not difficult for him to move in an instant. Seeing that the person in front of her was a mortal who wasn't afraid of death, Mei Ji's eyes turned cold."You're courting death!" The sword slashed down. Zhao Zeyi's reaction was also very fast. At the same time, he raised his sword and blocked her sword that contained demonic power. However, his body was forced back a few hundred steps before he managed to stabilize himself. His body churned as he spat out a mouthful of blood. However, he still held his body stubbornly. He looked at Mei Ji coldly and shockingly, the most favored Concubine Xian in the palace.
"Who exactly are you? Now, it seems like you did everything, right? It had nothing to do with Xun Er! What is your motive?" Zhao Zeyi was practically shouting at the end of his sentence. He pointed his sword at Mei Ji mercilessly. Hearing this, a mocking smile appeared on the latter's face.""Since you all know, then I have nothing to hide. Yes, I did all of this. Including the assassination of your so-called Prime Minister. However, all of this was Zhang Zixun's fault. My original goal was to absorb the emperor's dragon energy so that I could ascend as soon as possible. Who knew that Zhang Zixun would suddenly appear and claim to be the Jade Emperor's daughter and interfere with me. I had no choice but to think of a way to get rid of her. Yes, I was the one who killed the little prince. The Empress was under my control, so she wrongly accused Zhang Zixun of doing it.”
"You're so despicable!" Zhang Heng said. When Zhao Zeyi and Mei Ji were fighting, he had woken up and heard Mei Ji's words. At this moment, his face was filled with regret. Where are you!"
"So it's you! When Zixun told bengong, I didn't believe it. So you're the real monster! So you were the one who killed all the people I sent out?”When Mei Ji mentioned the little prince, the Empress felt a tremendous force breaking through the barrier in her heart. She woke up and looked at her fiercely. Her white teeth bit her jade-like lips until a faint smell of blood filled the air. If Zhao Zeyi hadn't stopped her, the Empress who had lost her beloved son would have rushed down to fight Mei Ji!
"Since they know everything now, we don't have to pretend anymore!”This was said by Li Hun, who had been silent all this while. At the same time, he came to Mei Ji.
"You really aren't a good person!" Zhang Heng forced himself to stand up and staggered to Zhao Zeyi's side. He looked at Li Hun angrily. Hearing this, Li Hun suddenly laughed mockingly,""You're wrong. I'm not human to begin with. How can you say that I'm not a good person?”As he spoke, his figure changed and he returned to his original appearance. It turned out that he was just an ugly lizard spirit with a long tongue sticking out of his mouth. The Empress 'stomach churned. Suddenly, she thought of something and hurriedly asked,"If you're a monster, then what about bengong's sister princess Bingyue? Also, where's Ruonan?"
"Hmph, those two ignorant women are now under house arrest. Don't worry, I won't kill them for the time being. After I deal with you, I'll slowly serve them!”As it spoke, the smelly lizard's smile grew wider.
"If he is a lizard, then what are you?”The Fourth Prince, Zhao Zeyi, had been staring at Mei Ji. Seeing Li Hun's real body, he asked.
"How dare you! I'm a rare blue python, and you dare to talk to me like this!”Mei Ji shouted. Killing intent flashed in his eyes. A mocking smile appeared on Zhao Zeyi's face.""Blue Giant Python? And a beast!"
"You." Mei Ji was furious. She didn't think that a mortal could be so bold and fearless in front of her. The snake-shaped longsword in his hand shook and turned back into his true form. He stabbed at Zhao Zeyi. Having seen her power, he did not dare to face her head-on this time. He quickly pulled the Prime Minister and the others to dodge, but the sword qi that contained demonic qi still injured his arm. However, Zhao Zeyi couldn't care less about this now. He was the only one who could barely fight. He stood in front of everyone and shouted,"Where are the royal guards? Hurry up and protect the emperor!"
In fact, a large group of imperial guards had gathered outside the hall. However, when they saw Mei Ji's powerful demonic technique, they didn't dare to move forward. Now that he heard the Fourth Prince's order, although he was afraid, he had no choice but to carry it out. Therefore, they all rushed forward with the mentality of certain death. Seeing this, the lizard spirit sneered. Before Mei Ji could attack, she waved her hand. A powerful flow of demonic energy swept over like a hot wave. The royal guards who looked brave and brave were killed by this attack. Some of them were wounded or dead. None of them were healthy. For a moment, wails filled the entire palace. Seeing this, Zhao Zeyi's expression turned serious. He had thought that the Royal Guards could trap Mei Ji and Shi Yan for the time being. However, he didn't expect that they couldn't withstand a single strike!
"Hahaha. A mere mortal wants to fight me? An egg striking a stone!" Mei Ji mocked.
"Don't be so smug!" Seeing this, Zhao Zeyi made up his mind. Suddenly, a sword was drawn from the jade flute in his hand. The treasured sword moved quickly. He mobilized all the energy in his body to attack Mei Ji. Similarly, the latter also went forward. Zhao Zeyi used his full strength to fight Mei Ji for a few rounds. Suddenly, the sounds of fighting could be heard everywhere. Ordinary people could not see what was going on. Seeing Mei Ji and the Fourth Prince fighting, the lizard spirit turned its cold eyes to Zhang Heng and the others behind it. Everyone was shocked. The people here had almost no combat strength now. How could they fight this big demon? The lizard spirit closed in step by step. Zhang Heng could only protect the Empress and Madam, supporting the unconscious Emperor, step by step. When there was nowhere to retreat to, the lizard spirit's right hand turned into a sharp claw and was about to grab the Prime Minister and the others. The latter closed his eyes and prepared to accept the despairing reality. However, at this moment, something strange happened again. Just as his claws reached Zhang Heng's chest, a purple light suddenly appeared. The dazzling immortal light made the lizard spirit unable to open its eyes, and at the same time, it was extremely uncomfortable. So he quickly jumped away and looked at Zhang Heng in surprise. He couldn't believe that a mortal actually had immortal light protecting his body.
After waiting for a long time, Zhang Heng did not feel anything. He slowly opened his eyes in confusion, only to see the lizard spirit far away from him, looking at him in surprise. This time, he was puzzled. Why didn't they attack him? At this moment, the Empress was the first to react and said softly,""Prime minister, I think I saw a ray of light shoot out from your chest. Perhaps he was afraid of this light. Do you have some kind of protection?" Hearing this, Zhang Heng put his hand into his chest and touched it. When he took it out, there was a bright yellow brocade bag in his hand. Seeing this, the Prime Minister turned his puzzled gaze to the Madam."Did you give this to me? Why didn't I know?" Hearing this, Madam shook her head in confusion."I don't know. I've never seen this thing before!”Thus, Zhang Heng fell into deep thought. On the other side, the lizard spirit stuck out its long tongue and glared at Zhang Heng and the others. However, after what had happened just now, it did not dare to act rashly and could only remain in a stalemate.
After a while, the Prime Minister suddenly thought of something and slowly opened the brocade bag. There was nothing special inside, just a roll of hair. When Furen saw this, she suddenly exclaimed,"Old Master, this is Xun Er's hair!"”
"What is it? You said that this is Xun Er's hair?" The Madam's tears had already fallen at this moment. She cried and nodded."That's right, Old Master. We really misunderstood Xun Er. Even now, she's still protecting us!”Hearing this, the Prime Minister could not help but cry.
"Hehe. I'm not sure. Foolish humans, mistaking fairies for monsters! What a joke!" The lizard spirit mocked.
"Prime minister, now is not the time to be sad. We should pull ourselves together in front of the enemy.”With Zhang Zixun's hair that contained immortal energy as an amulet, the Empress immediately became more confident. She took the brocade bag from the Prime Minister's hand and put her hair away. With her as the center, the Prime Minister supported the Emperor and Madam behind him. The might of the empress was immediately revealed. The Empress raised the brocade bag high. The lizard spirit did not dare to go forward because of fear. There was no danger in this stalemate.
It was different outside the hall. Although the Fourth Prince Zhao Zeyi had a strong energy and could fight Mei Ji for a few rounds, he was just a mortal. After a few moves, he was at a disadvantage. There were not many people in the Royal Guards who could fight, so Zhao Zeyi could only fight alone. At this moment, Zhao Zeyi dodged Mei Ji's attack. He was exhausted. Half-kneeling on the ground, his hands trembled as he supported himself with his sword. Seeing this, Mei Ji sneered."Your death is here!" As he spoke, a long white ribbon tied to a snake-shaped sword stabbed towards Zhao Zeyi. At this moment, the latter had almost no strength to fight back. Seeing the menacing longsword, he could only close his eyes sadly."Zixun, goodbye. I hope I can meet you sooner in my next life!”Just as the sword energy reached Zhao Zeyi's chest, a golden light suddenly appeared on his body. A golden dragon suddenly soared into the sky. It hovered around Zhao Zeyi.
"How dare you hurt my master!”The dragon spat out a golden pearl from its mouth and hit the long sword, instantly knocking it down. At the same time, the strong Morality made Mei Ji discolor. Her blood boiled as she spat out a mouthful of blood."The right person? Golden Dragon Body Protection? How is that possible?" Mei Ji said in disbelief as she tried to support her body. Zhao Zeyi was also shocked. He also stared blankly at the golden dragon circling around him and muttered,"I'm the one? How is that possible?"
"Yeah, you're the True Dragon Son of Heaven. Mei Ji, you didn't expect this, did you?”At this moment, a beam of celestial light flashed across the horizon. Zhang Zixun's figure slowly landed beside Zhao Zeyi.
"You already knew?" She looked at Zhang Zixun in disbelief and asked. " That's right." Zhang Zixun smiled sweetly." Do you think I don't know that you agreed to me just now to lure me away?" The reason why I left first was to beat him at his own game. I wanted to know if Zeyi's potential would be stimulated at the most critical moment. The facts proved that I was right. Since he was the True Dragon Son of Heaven, then you wouldn't be able to kill him!”As she spoke, she helped Zhao Zeyi up.
