Chapter 1936 1,831, The Cold Empress (First Update)
However, he didn’t dare to show any unusual emotions in front of the creatures of the common life region.
No matter how angry he was, he still had to show fear and trepidation on his face. “This lowly one deserves to die, this lowly one deserves to die!”
He got up and apologized to the SAINTESS.
“What are you babbling about? Hurry up and say it!”The SAINTESS was overjoyed. She had kicked the three-crowned emperor alive, and the other party had no choice but to beg for mercy. She had never imagined that this would happen!
Manager Zhang hurriedly knelt down to the general of the city. “Reporting to you, general, I was cutting firewood in the valley half a day ago. I did see a purple-robed man and a blue-robed man flying over my head.”
“You saw them too?”The general of the city asked Wang Ying.
Wang Ying also hated the Moon Worship Sect Master in her heart, but she quickly nodded her head. “Yes, I saw them too. They were very powerful. They flew toward the imperial city in the blink of an eye and disappeared.”
Hearing this, the city general immediately became serious.
“Not good! Those two people are probably pretending to be our people and trying to sneak into the Imperial City!”The city general immediately rode his horse forward, “Quick! Return to the Imperial City and report to the imperial family that there are unknown people sneaking in...”
After a slight pause, the city general said, “Also, bring the four of them here and identify the two suspicious people at any time.”
“Yes!”
As such, Su Yu and the other two were stuffed into a military carriage by the patrolling soldiers. They rushed towards the imperial city without stopping.
When there were only the four of them in the carriage, manager Zhang and Wang Ying, whose faces were filled with fear and trepidation, finally pulled their faces down and glared at Su Yu and the Saintess unkindly.
Su Yu smiled apologetically with a pleasant expression. “The two of you, don’t hurt the harmony. That was just a temporary measure. I hope that the two of you can put the overall situation first and not take it to heart.”
The SAINTESS smiled sweetly and said, “Senior Zhang, I’m sorry. I really have no choice but to do it!”
No Choice? was he taking the opportunity to take revenge?
In that case, a scolding was enough. A kick to the ground was completely unnecessary.
Wang Ying stared deeply at the Moon worship sect leader. She didn’t quite understand how she had offended the moon worship sect leader and needed the other party to take the opportunity to take revenge?
“HMPH! It Won’t happen again!”Manager Zhang Harrumphed and swallowed his anger.
The SAINTESS smiled lightly.
After two consecutive days of travel, they arrived at the military camp outside the imperial city.
The foreign invasion that had appeared in the past few days made the imperial family extremely nervous.
Especially the last time they forcefully barged into the imperial palace, causing the imperial family to have a false alarm. They mobilized their army to guard around the imperial city and the imperial palace.
If any outsiders barged in, the will of the 100,000 strong army would be enough to kill all of them in a short period of time.
Seeing such a formation, manager Zhang and the others sucked in a breath of cold air and became more and more cautious.
If they were really seen through, they would have no chance of escaping.
The city general rode his horse into the military camp and went alone to report. Not long later, the entire military camp was mobilized and sealed off the city gates of the royal city, checking everyone who entered and exited.
Not long after, the city general returned and hurriedly said, “The four of you will each follow the army to a city gate. You will be responsible for identifying suspicious people.”
The Imperial City had four gates, north, south, east, west, and west. It just so happened that each of them would be split up.
Su Yu and the others were slightly shocked. Should they split up?
That was good too. Whoever could enter the imperial palace first to obtain the props would be rewarded.
Su Yu was assigned to the south city.
Compared to the other three city gates, the south city had always been remote. There were very few people coming and going, so he was happy to relax.
He held his temper and cooperated with the soldiers guarding the gate to identify the people coming and going.
“Sigh, I really don’t know what those foreign immortals are thinking. They insist on barging into our place. What is there for them to snatch from us?”
“The most hateful thing is that they should be killing the innocent indiscriminately, right?”? “They just came in and without saying a word, they cast the spells of the immortals. There are casualties everywhere. They don’t treat our lives as their lives at all!”! “Without this, we can still have a good talk with them. Now, HMPH, it seems that those immortals are very afraid of us. As long as we are unwilling, they will be blocked outside and will even be killed!”
Hearing this, Su Yu secretly sighed.
He was also curious as to why the creatures in the Cang Sheng region would resist them.
The two sides had never interacted before, so they should be more curious, right?
It turned out that the first batch of people who came in didn’t take the creatures here seriously. They thought that it was just like the outside world, where the creatures were like grass and could be killed at any time.
But in the end, they got into big trouble!
“A group of people who can not do anything but ruin everything!”Su Yu was secretly angry.
“Hey, Young Master Lian, do you really recognize that immortal who rushed in recklessly?”
Su Yu quickly said, “I have indeed seen him.”
The soldier who asked the question smiled. “It would be good if you could identify him. Our Emperor is very interested in immortals. The two immortal bodies that were killed before were sent to the depths of the palace to be studied. However, His Majesty once sighed and said that it would be great if we could catch a living person to study.”
Su Yu was stunned. “Why is He studying Immortals?”
“His Majesty is very curious about the legendary ability of immortals to bring the dead back to life. He hopes that he can capture one alive and dissect it on the spot.”
This..
Su Yu’s mouth was slightly bitter. This emperor sounded a little dangerous!
At this moment, a handsome horse was galloping towards them with many guards dressed in strange clothes.
When the soldiers at the city gate saw this, they stopped their laziness and stood up straight.
“Is Lian Qing here?”A fair lady dressed as a man sat on the stallion and asked.
Su Yu stood out, “I am here.”
“Pass down His Majesty’s order, enter the palace immediately!”
Su Yu was slightly stunned, “I need to identify him here...”
“No Need!”The lady waved her hand, “His Majesty has already caught one, he wants you to enter the palace to identify him!”
Caught One? Who?
Could it be that within two days, another person had attempted to break into the palace and failed?
With the cautiousness of Fu Bingyu and the Sword Alliance master, they should not have done such a foolish thing.
Could it be that someone had unknowingly broken in?
However, Su Yu had no other choice at the moment. As a citizen of the Cang Sheng region, he could only obey the orders of the emperor.
Under the envy of many soldiers, Su Yu rode on the white horse used by the palace and entered the palace.
Su Yu was brought to the Chengde Palace in the imperial palace.
The palace was empty, with only an 18-year-old palace maid standing quietly in the palace, ready to serve the guests.
Su Yu entered, sniffed the quiet incense burner, and waited quietly.
Ding --
The palace maid served a cup of hot tea. “Young Master Lian, please enjoy your meal.”
“How do you know my surname?”Su Yu looked at her with slight surprise.
The palace maid’s pretty face flashed with a trace of nervousness, and she said weakly, “I heard eunuch Chen Say it.”
Eunuch Chen... was he the one who called Su Yu into the palace just now?
“OH.”Su Yu paused, and said, “What does the immortal that His Majesty said look like?”
When the palace maid heard this, her eyes lit up slightly, and she said, “I heard that it was a red-faced, middle-aged immortal with a belly. He tried to sneak in secretly, but was discovered by the imperial guards...”
As she was speaking, a group of people suddenly walked in from outside the hall.
The first one was a majestic, 20-year-old woman in a yellow robe. She was extremely beautiful and most importantly, she wore a crown on her head, which was the symbol of the monarch.
The Empress? She was still so young?
No matter how you looked at it, she was only in her twenties.
However, after thinking about it carefully, the members of the imperial family had always been immortal. Although she appeared to be 20 years old, it was hard to tell how old she was.
“How dare you leak secrets. Guards, take her out and kill her!”The Empress Glared at the palace maid coldly.
The palace maid was so scared that she fell to the ground and kowtowed, “Please spare my life, Empress! I don’t dare to do it anymore!”
However, the Empress’s eyes were indifferent. There was no palace maid in her eyes.
Two imperial guards walked forward and grabbed her.
The palace maid’s face was deathly pale, as if doomsday had arrived. She only knew how to plead.
Su Yu saw this and struggled, “Your Majesty, Please Show Mercy. If you want to blame someone, blame me for asking too much. This has nothing to do with this palace maid.”
The Empress looked over and her beautiful eyes flashed with a cold expression, “How Dare You Block My Orders? Do you believe that I will drag you out and kill you!”
At this moment, if Su Yu were to anger the empress a little, it would be difficult for him to get away with it.
However, the palace maid was indeed implicated because of Su Yu.
To watch her be executed was not in line with Su Yu’s principles.
Therefore, he argued, “Your Majesty, there is always a cause and effect. If your Majesty insists on killing the innocent, how can an emperor like you submit to the World?”
The Empress’s eyes were sharp and cold. “You dare to defy me?”
“I don’t dare. I just don’t want to implicate the Innocent!”
The empress stared at Su Yu coldly for a long time before she flicked her sleeves and turned around. “HMPH! Since you are still of some use, I will spare you this time!”
She waved her hand and the palace maid also narrowly escaped death.
“Follow me.”The Empress did not turn her head and walked out of the hall.
Su Yu followed her. When he passed by the palace maid who was lying on the ground, he helped her up and said apologetically, “I’m sorry.”
The palace maid wiped her tears and said gratefully, “Young Master Lian, why did you have to offend the emperor for a lowly servant like me?”
Su Yu said indifferently, “There is no distinction between nobility and inferiority. Furthermore, I was the one who harmed you. Naturally, I have to take responsibility to the end! Don’t worry.”
As he said this, he stood up and was about to leave.
Suddenly, the palace maid pulled him back and pulled out a handkerchief with beautiful handwriting. Her pretty face was slightly red. “Today, Young Master Lian saved me. I have no way to repay you. This is my personal handkerchief. It is a token of my gratitude. I hope Young Master Lian will accept it.”
This... Su Yu was slightly startled. Just a few casual words and he had captured the young girl’s heart?
Weren’t the women here a little too straightforward?
He didn’t know whether to reject or accept it. He reluctantly accepted it and said, “Take care.”
He casually put the handkerchief into his pocket and hurriedly followed the empress.
In any case, he would never have the chance to meet the palace maids again, so he accepted it.
Under the lead of the Empress and the imperial guards, they came to a dark hall.
They could smell the deep stench of blood through the doors and windows.
It was the smell of God’s blood!
As expected, someone was captured!
“Tell me, Why Can Immortals Live Forever?”The empress walked in front and suddenly turned around to ask Su Yu.
Su Yu’s heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly said, “The Empress has an immortal body. I don’t dare to speak recklessly.”
The Empress did not say a word. She came to the front of the hall and gently pushed open the door with her slender white jade palm. The corners of her mouth curled up into a cold arc, she said slowly, “Young Master Lian, there is one thing that I forgot to mention. Actually, the immortals that were captured were not just one, but... Three!”
Three?
Su Yu instantly woke up!
