Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Chapter 2321: Underground Palace!

Li Yao took a closer look at the dark scorched corpse, or couldn't tell whether it was poisoned, or was sucked clean by some highly dominant method. He couldn't help but frown: “Why is it poisoned or planted a long time ago? ”

Oriental looked hesitantly and said: “All the world knows that His Majesty is being held hostage by me, and I want to ‘pinch the heavens to make the lords’, but if I say that His Majesty actually trusts me very much and fears that someone will try to murder him, he and I have played a good show together to cover our eyes and ears. In fact, he hid here to seek protection. Do you believe me? ”

“Wow, that's the truth, of course I believe it! ”

Li Yao said, "The Prime Minister of the Orient is so selfless, dedicated to his country, and photographs of His Majesty's liver, so pure and loyal as White Lotus flower! ”

The Oriental looked at the cough and said: "Well, that may be a little exaggerated, but His Majesty's relationship with me is certainly not entirely opposed, and we often have to cooperate. He will use my strength to suppress the remaining three Emperor Hou families, as well as the factors of instability in the court - including Li Linghai! ”

"- [sic]“ Is Your Majesty unhappy with Her Majesty? ”

“Not dissatisfied, but scared! ”

"His Majesty has a deep fear of Li Linghai," Oriental said, "and in recent decades, especially since the outbreak of the Empire's counter-attack war, Li Linghai has changed more and more, in many cases completely into another person, a person who has made him feel creepy and unstable.

“Without fear of jokes, His Majesty said that he and Li Linghai had not slept together for twenty or thirty years. Even when he saw Li Linghai, he was physiologically unable to awaken a man's abilities, but on other princesses, he was still a dragon tiger, and the Ten Daughters of the Night were not talking.

“Moreover, His Majesty said that Li Linghai often wandered in the palace in the middle of the night, sneaking around without knowing what to do. He wanted to investigate, but Li Linghai occasionally disappeared without a trace. ”

“Wait.”

Li Yao raised his hand, “What do you mean disappeared without a trace? ”

“No one knows exactly how Li Linghai did it. The palace is the focus of surveillance of the family of four major election emperors. There are surveillance glasses and our eyes everywhere. According to theory, no one can go ghostly in the palace. ”

"However, the palace of the Real Human Empire is said to have been built on the ruins of the palace of the Star Sea Empire 10,000 years ago. Although the stars moved and the sea sand fields swept, myriad secrets were buried in the depths of the earth.

“When Dark Star Emperor Wu Yingqi built the palace, he used it as the last base of resistance for the real human empire, so the ground was wide open, with lots of mazes, arsenals, entrances to the fragmented world, connected by secret passages and transmission arrays, and all sorts of powerful defensive formations and intricate institutions that could trap even Yuan Baby and the powerful God.

“A thousand years ago, the Black Star Emperor allegedly launched hundreds of thousands of practitioners to build ‘underground palaces’, mostly prisoners of war at the time of the collapse of the Republic of the Stars and Sea. The Black Star Emperor promised that, once they had built 'underground palaces’, they could convert their achievements into immortals and start a new life in the Real Human Empire.

“Unfortunately, when the 'Underground Palace' was truly built, the Black Star Emperor killed hundreds of thousands of practitioners in the 'Underground Palace’ and refined their unjust souls into a formidable defensive battle. Since then, hundreds of thousands of unjust souls have wandered deep beneath the palace, and the secrets of the ‘Underground Palace’ have been known only to His Majesty for generations, until... generations of emperors in the middle have died of fate, and the secrets of the 'Underground Palace’ are no longer known.

“Our family of four electorate emperors naturally want to discover the secrets of the 'underground palace', but the four of us hold each other and balance each other, no one else wants to get the secrets first, plus the difficulty of discovering the entire underground palace is really too high, slightly careless, even causing the Earth's crust of the entire celestial star to dramatically change, ecological imbalance, the harsh environment is so unfit for human survival, the consequences are so serious, there is not much benefit, the matter has been set aside.

“According to His Majesty the Emperor of Shenwu, Li Linghai seems to have mastered some way to travel freely through the 'underground palace’. The matter is highly suspicious. I naturally conducted a secret investigation, which revealed the traces of the existence of the 'revolutionaries' and found out the tip of the iceberg of Li Linghaib's ambitions.

“But at that time, I still didn't expect Li Linghai's plot to be so great, and the means so dense and vicious, and I thought she was just the kind of woman who had been ravaging the court for the past 500 years.

“So I just deployed conventional means to keep her 'sick and dead' and the Empire decent, but I actually secretly arrested her and slowly cannibalized and tortured her to find out the secret of the 'underground palace'.

“As for Your Majesty, I naturally disrespect him when he comes to seek my protection and ‘throws himself into the net'.

“I have no ill intentions towards His Majesty, but he was overwhelmed by the triumph of the Empire's festival of counter-attacks. The whole population swelled and gave rise to ambitions that he could not bear. As Prime Minister of the Empire, it is naturally incumbent upon me to strike him well, calm him down, recognize the reality and not be exploited by those with other intentions.

“Unfortunately, the clandestine capture of Li Linghai did not go smoothly. All it caught was a double, and the real Li Linghai fled long ago.

“Helpless, we can only poison this double, trying to declare Her Majesty's collapse, in such a way as to minimize the threat to the Li Linghai - who thought, still underestimated her.

“And His Majesty has always been well since receiving my protection, but in the outbreak of the 'cannibal cultivation incident' and the 'blood league event', I was most overwhelmed. At the time of the burning head, in just half an hour without any signs, all the liquids around me evaporated and turned into this, leaving no trace of ruin.

“At that time, there were several doctors and meditators beside His Majesty, and the first rescue was carried out. Hundreds of medical drugs were injected into His Majesty's body, but nothing was helped. His Majesty's body was like a miniature black hole, and he lived... and drained him!

“Not sooner or later, just at my most difficult time, His Majesty died so strangely that it became clear that someone was trying to frame me, drive me out, and ask me to carry this black pot on my back! Indeed, once His Majesty died in my hands, I could not speak clearly, let alone tell anyone, I had to wait to die!

“This, such a circular conspiracy, such a cruel and vicious drug, is not Li Linghai's work, who else? ”

“But...”

"Why did Her Majesty do this," said Li Yao. "Why kill the king and kill her husband? ”

“Perhaps it was Her Majesty who knew so many of her secrets, and even considered abolishing the Queen that she was the first to do so; or perhaps she wanted the House of Four Elected Emperors and even the whole Empire to be in turmoil! ”

Oriental looked, “As you just said, as long as the Oriental family ceded a great deal of interest and returned to His Majesty the Emperor of Shenbu, the family of the four electorates and the revolutionaries could still maintain a barely balanced balance. Perhaps this scene is not what Li Linghai wanted to see. Is she just going to make the empire a mess?

“His Majesty the Emperor of Shenwu has been in power for 60 years. Among the Empire's successive generations, he has been in power for a long time. He can be a stable and stable emperor for 60 years. Naturally, because the families of the four electorate emperors are satisfied with the current pattern of interests, there is no need to push it back easily.

“And that is why, together with the gravity of the Empire over the last two decades, there has not even been a prince.

“We all wanted to consider the establishment of a prince when the war ended and when we divided the interests of reconstruction after the war, to consider the prince as a trading condition.

“The situation is so precarious that His Majesty's death promptly pushed the family of the four electorate emperors, together with the revolutionaries, to the tip of the tide.

“For the Innovators, your slogan is' Rebellion of the Emperor, Innovation of the Divine Martial Arts'. Now even the 'Emperor of the Divine Martial Arts' himself has been murdered by the 'traitors', you will never let go of the culprits, even the Nine tribes, and completely annihilate the Oriental family in order to sustain your righteousness, right?

“For the Oriental family, many of the bypass branches could have come out to clean up the mess. As long as I sacrificed this one, it is possible to keep the family alive. But when something so bad happens, everything becomes unknown. Perhaps the residual power of the Oriental family will have to jump to the wall and fight to the death!

“For the remaining three major-elect imperial families, they naturally have their own opinions on the prince's candidature, supporting their own interest spokespersons.

“Today we are facing a great transformation not seen in the millennium of the Empire. Interests in all fields are being re-shuffled, whether on the front or the rear. Whose puppet can be emperor, naturally can take a great advantage, even replace the Oriental family and become the new 'first family’!

“Therefore, the Cintiq's candidate will inevitably have a bloodshed and will not have sex!

“Li Linghai is so insidious, there must be a backhand. She only made a small subtotal. Are you still afraid that the Hou clan of three major election emperors won't make a big fight and become a mess? ”

Though incapacitated, the Orient's expectation of computational strength restored the corresponding level of the Empire's head, stripping the whole thing of corn and analyzing it clearly.

He also heard Li Yiu Khan's back fluttering and his heart was cold.

“I still don't get it. ”

Li Yao Mun muttered, “What good is the empire in all its chaos to Her Majesty? ”

“I don't know what good it would do to Li Linghai if the Empire was in a mess. ”

The Orient looks at the teeth and bites, is it hard, “All I know is that if the empire wind calms down and keeps you safe and steady through the transition period of power, the Li Linghai will always be just a little queen. The further back the time passes, the less likely she is to start a little wind wave, and eventually it will only disappear silently into the stardust!

“She has done so much with her heart, she will never be willing to die like this, never! ”
