However, the old eunuch could stop one from talking, but not ten or a hundred.
The palace servants did not dare to talk about it openly, but in private, they were gossiping.
The world was not in chaos yet, but the palace was.
Hu Yu sighed. “With the palace in chaos, I’m afraid the war is not far away. I don’t know what will happen once a war breaks out.”
War meant death.
Liu Yuanyuan looked at the far end of the palace. Because of a collapsed tower, the palace looked dilapidated. Within the walls of this palace, an aura of death seemed to be gathering.
“Let’s go back and report it to Venerable.”
She didn’t think the collapse of the Star Reaching tower was a natural occurrence. Instead, it was mandemade.
When Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan returned, it was already dawn. Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan had already woken up and were in the courtyard.
Liu Yuanyuan said, “Venerable, Star Reaching Tower collapsed. That’s a prayer building for the Xia Dynasty. Its location was chosen by the State Minister. Now that it has collapsed, everyone in the capital is feeling uneasy.”
Hu Yu said, “Liu Yuanyuan and I have heard many rumors. People said that Star Reaching Tower was built by the Cloud Breaking Sect. It’s said that there’s a dragon vein trapped under it to protect the Xia Dynasty. Star Reaching Tower collapsed because the Cloud Breaking Sect took away the dragon vein. The Xia Dynasty is in imminent danger!”
The Xia dynasty without the protection of the dragon vein would be like a pool of stagnant water.
Liu Sanniang said calmly, “Go and ask around to find out more. I will enter the palace later.”
Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan nodded and quickly went out again.
On the streets and alleys of the capital, people were rushing back to pack up their things, ready to leave the capital and find a shelter for the time being.
On the street, a group of people in yellow daoist robes walked past.
After Xia Bingguang found out that the Star Reaching Tower had collapsed, he was so angry that he felt dizzy. It took him a while to calm down. When the noble consort and the others heard the news, they quickly came over and suggested, “Your Majesty, quickly invite Miss Liu over to take a look.”
Xia Bingguang agreed immediately. “Yes, quick, go and invite her over.”
It took several years to build Star Reaching Tower, and a lot of money was invested into it, but it actually collapsed.
Xia Bingguang felt his mind buzz. When Star Reaching Tower was first built,
Xu Bo performed a ritual on the top of it. He used his blood to attract the dragon vein and trapped it under the tower. He said that with the dragon vein, the Xia Dynasty would prosper for generations to come.
With the collapse of the Star Reaching Tower, Xia Bingguang felt as if he was also about to fall.
Seeing that Xia Bingguang was so anxious that he lost his composure, Noble Consort Xian Fei comforted him, “Your Majesty, don’t worry. When Miss Liu comes, she will give us a solution.”
Su Yanxue frowned and echoed, “Yes, Noble Consort is right. Your Majesty, don’t be anxious. There’s nothing that Mis Liu can’t resolve.”
Consort De also said softly, “Your Majesty, don’t overthink. It’s not worth it if you fall sick.”
Xia Bingguang felt a pain in his heart. He couldn’t even stand still. Xian Fei and the others were shocked. Xian Fei, who was closest to Xia Bingguang, quickly helped him up.
Xia Bingguang had an anxious look on his face. He reached out to touch his throat and mouth, so anxious that he almost cried, but he could not speak.
Xian Fei noticed this abnormality and immediately shouted, “Someone, summon the imperial physician!”
Xia Bingguang sat on the couch, feeling like his throat was burning. However, there was something wrong with his mouth and he could not open it.
The imperial physician arrived very quickly. After taking his pulse, he revealed a nervous expression.
Xian Fei and the others were also anxious. “What’s wrong with His Majesty? Tell us.”
The imperial physicians looked at each other and stammered, “His Majesty, His Majesty looks like he’s losing his vitality. It’s as if his life force is draining away.”
“Nonsense. I think you are just spouting nonsense because your medical skills are not good enough.”
Xian Fei berated coldly.
The imperial physicians lowered their heads and remained silent.
A eunuch came in to report, “Your Majesty, Your Highness, Daoist Yun Guan and Miss Liu are already here.”
Xia Bingguang looked anxious.
Xian Fei quickly instructed, “Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and let them in.”
Xia Bingguang could not speak. In just a moment, he felt as if his entire body was on fire.
The eunuch quickly retreated outside and said to Liu Sanniang, Daoist Yun Guan, and the others, “Everyone, go in quickly. His Majesty is waiting.”
Daoist Yun Guan was wearing a yellow daoist robe and holding a silver horsetail whisk. He glanced at Liu Sanniang and nodded slightly before walking in.
The four disciples behind him followed closely behind.
Chu Yan squeezed Liu Sanniang’s palm and said softly, “He stinks.”
Liu Sanniang held Chu Yan’s hand tightly and nodded.
Chu Yan looked at Liu Sanniang, lowered his head, and kissed her forehead. “Let’s go.”
When they entered the back hall, they could see the imperial physicians with their heads lowered.
Daoist Yun Guan had already walked to the side of the couch and was looking at Xia Bingguang. He said in a low voice, “Your Majesty, your fate has been cut off, and your karma is burning you.”
Xia Bingguang could not speak, but his eyes revealed obvious anxiety.
Daoist Yun Guan looked at Xia Bingguang and said, “Your Majesty, don’t be anxious. The more anxious you are, the more vigorous the Karmic Flame will be. It’s not too late to reverse the situation yet.”
Xian Fei brought over a cup of tea. Xia Bingguang opened his mouth slightly and drank it with difficulty. Xian Fei stroked his back. “Your Majesty, don’t be anxious. Calm down and take it slow.”
When Xia Bingguang saw Liu Sanniang, he waved his hands excitedly.
Daoist Yun Guan glanced at Liu Sanniang and retreated to the side. “Miss Liu is a psychic too. I believe she can also tell.”
Liu Sanniang walked forward, and Xia Bingguang gestured anxiously.
Daoist Yun Guan said, “Miss Liu, you should already know about the huge commotion this morning, right? Star Reaching Tower is closely related to the fate of this dynasty. Speaking of which, you are partly to blame for this.”
It was obvious what Daoist Yun Guan meant.
The Cloud Breaking Sect abandoned the Xia Dynasty, and the spiritual girl of the Cloud Breaking Sect, Xia Qiluo, went against Liu Sanniang. The collapse of Star Reaching Tower was naturally related to Liu Sanniang. It could even be said that all of this happened because of her.
Liu Sanniang did not speak. Instead, she placed her hand on Xia Bingguang’s wrist and injected a force into his body.
Xia Bingguang’s body was originally burning like fire. Liu Sanniang’s power was as warm as water, which could soothe the burning pain.
Xia Bingguang opened his mouth and spat out a blood clot..
