"Humph!"
The Empress smiled coldly.
In the next moment, she waved her delicate hand.
In an instant, the entire world seemed to have come to a complete stop.
The space was completely frozen.
Ye Gucheng felt like he was stuck in mud, and his speed also slowed down.
"You know martial arts?"
Ye Gucheng shouted in shock.
"Martial arts grandmaster?"
"No, it's not as simple as being a martial grandmaster!”
He was also a grandmaster in the way of the sword, but compared to the Empress, he was miles apart.
Not only his strength and speed, but even his thoughts were greatly affected.
Clang!
The sword and palm collided.
What shocked Ye Gucheng was that…
His sword technique was broken in an instant, not even lasting for a second.
Boom!
The Empress 'palm strike landed on Ye Gucheng's chest.
Crack!
The sound of bones cracking rang out.
Ye Gucheng felt a sharp pain in his heart.
He couldn't stand it anymore and started wailing.
The terrifying will invaded his mind, causing his consciousness to blur.
The empress's strength was actually so terrifying.
He hid it so deeply.
In the whole of Da Ming, there aren't many people who can compare to him.
Ye Gucheng's face turned ashen and his sword fell to the ground.
"Your heart has been bewitched. Unfortunately, although you have good talent, you have let it down!”
The Empress glanced at him with contempt.
He didn't give Ye Gucheng a chance to speak.
He struck out with his palm again.
Puff!
He spat out a mouthful of blood. The once famous Sword Saint, Ye Gucheng, died in despair.
Even before he died, his face was filled with disbelief.
Was he really a frog at the bottom of a well?
What a joke!
The Great Ming Imperial Palace was so terrifying that he thought he could easily replace the Emperor!
In the eyes of many people, he was probably a clown.
Soon, the darkness completely drowned his consciousness.
He fell to the ground and died.
"Plop!"
Eunuch Gao fell to his knees, trembling.
He looked at the Empress in fear.
"Your Majesty, this servant has long known of Ye Gucheng's wild ambitions and his rebellious intentions. That's why I brought him to Your Majesty and executed him on the spot.”
"Please spare this servant's life."
"This servant will die ten thousand times to repay the Empress!”
It was too terrifying.
No one had expected the Empress to be so powerful.
The grand Sword Saint Ye Gucheng couldn't even withstand a single move from the Empress.
Even God Marquis Ironguts of the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa might not be a match for him!
The only chance to survive now was to immediately join the Empress.
Become her slave.
In the future, not only would he be able to survive, he could even rise up.
"Men!"
At this moment, Zhu Houzhao's voice echoed.
Immediately after, the sound of footsteps quickly gathered.
"This old servant Cao Zhengchun greets Your Majesty, greets the Empress!”
"This servant Yu Huatian greets Your Majesty, Your Majesty!”
The ones who arrived were Cao Zhengchun from the East Chamber and Yu Huatian from the West Chamber.
They had been waiting for a long time.
"Get up!"
Zhu Houzhao walked over slowly and nodded."
"The two of you, drag this slave down and dig out his accomplices!”
"Three days, I will only give you three days. I want to know the information of all my accomplices.”
"Your Majesty, please spare my life! Empress, please spare my life!”
Unfortunately, no one cared.
"This old servant (servant) obeys the decree!"
Cao Zhengchun and Yu Huatian sneered and knocked Eunuch Gao unconscious before taking him out of the hall.
However, before he left, he looked at the Empress with fear in his eyes.
They did not expect that the Empress, who was usually dignified and graceful, was actually so powerful.
Even God Marquis Ironguts was no match for him.
……
On the summit of the Forbidden City.
At this moment, Ximen Chuixue did not know that his opponent had already died.
He was still waiting there foolishly.
The agreed time had long passed.
The people watching the battle not far away were also discussing animatedly.
"Where is Ye Gucheng? Is he afraid to come?”
Tiehua Hu sneered, full of disdain for Ye Gucheng.
"This battle was started by Ye Gucheng, but he actually backed down.”
"Did someone cause trouble and stop him from coming?”
"Are you kidding me? Ye Gu Cheng is so strong, who can stop him?”
"Moreover, once we start fighting, we can easily discover it.”
"Lu Xiaofeng, what do you think?" Commander Xiang rubbed his nose and asked in confusion.
"No, there's a problem."
Lu Xiaofeng's brows were tightly knitted together, and his eyes flashed with wisdom.
The information in his mind was continuously connected.
"Not good, Ye Gucheng, he has a scheme!”
Lu Xiaofeng's eyes widened, and then he flew toward the rear palace without looking back.
However, as soon as he approached, the imperial guards stopped him.
"The Imperial Palace is an important place. Anyone who comes, stop!"
"Lu Xiaofeng, how dare you!”
"Don't think that just because you have some status in the martial arts world, you can come here and cause trouble!”
"Leave quickly before things get out of hand. Otherwise, you won't be able to bear the consequences.”
Lu Xiaofeng panicked.
"Let's go, Ye Gucheng is planning a rebellion. He is in the harem now, the emperor is in danger!”
"What? Rebellion? Do you have any evidence?"
The guard's expression changed drastically."
"This is no joke."
……
Outside the Empress's palace.
"Your Majesty, the imperial guards have brought Lu Xiaofeng to see you!”
"Bring him in!"
Soon, the imperial guards and Lu Xiaofeng entered the hall.
When he saw the Emperor sitting there perfectly fine, he was instantly dumbfounded.
Rebellion?
Was Ye Gucheng trying to assassinate the Emperor?
The imperial guard glared at Lu Xiaofeng.
"What is it?"
"I heard from Lu Xiaofeng that Ye Gucheng is going to use the name of the battle on the summit of the forbidden city to assassinate His Majesty.”
"Protector beast? Interesting!"
Zhu Houzhao muttered a few words, and the corners of his mouth curled up into an interesting smile.
"Alright, Lu Xiaofeng stays behind. You can leave now!”
"This humble subject will take his leave!"
"You are Lu Xiaofeng?"
Zhu Houzhao carefully sized up the person in front of him.
He had heard a lot about this guy in his previous life.
This was the first time he had seen it.
"I was too reckless just now. I hope Your Majesty can forgive me!”
Lu Xiaofeng said awkwardly.
"No, you are not wrong. Ye Gucheng did come to assassinate me!”
"What is it? " This…" Lu Xiaofeng was shocked.
"Then now he…"
"Assassinating me is equivalent to treason, so it is naturally a capital crime.”
Zhu Houzhao said matter-of-factly.
Lu Xiaofeng was shocked.
All the information in his mind rushed out.
An unbelievable thought surged into his mind.
Then, he looked at the Emperor in shock.
