“Move back!” Ye Jingtang shouted. His eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and his face was almost ferocious. His almost exploding heartbeat was audible from a few steps away.

Thump, thump, thump!

He exerted all the strength in his body again. The force was so strong that it even broke the headpiece that bound his black hair. He held the spear with both hands and forcefully blocked Eunuch Cao before crashing into the platform.

Boom!

Eunuch Cao was pressed against the stone stepped platform. He looked at Ye Jingtang’s face, and a hint of contemplation flashed across his eyes.

The empress of Great Wei was standing behind Ye Jingtang with an umbrella, also surprised to see this scene.

Ye Jingtang could force Eunuch Cao, who had unparalleled brute force, back twice. Even if someone had practiced the Dragon Form Picture, they still couldn’t do it. This was because no one in the world had practiced it longer than Eunuch Cao. If the two sides fought, they would only break the weapon.

The instantaneous explosive force shook the mountain rocks, but the tip of the spear remained straight. This meant that Ye Jingtang was controlling the spear and using internal energy to suppress Eunuch Cao rather than brute force.

Although it was just a simple forward thrust, it was obvious that all the bones, muscles, and meridians in his body were coordinating flawlessly.

It didn’t feel as though a person was stabbing forward, but an extremely sophisticated machine was pushing the spear. All the components had been polished to perfection. The surging internal energy coursed through his body with a single thought, and no joint or meridian encumbered it. Only then could he display this inhuman instantaneous explosive power.

This was not a physique that a human could have at birth. It couldn’t even be nurtured carefully after birth. It was more like a human weapon forged with the strength of an entire country…

The empress felt that Ye Jingtang’s body was very special. She wanted to take a closer look at the details, but she immediately realized that he was really risking his life.

Ye Jingtang was using all his strength to suppress the power of Eunuch Cao’s Dragon Form. But the blood and qi in his body had already rushed to the limit. The veins in his blood-red eyes were bulging, and his heartbeat was like muffled thunder. If he continued to push the spear, he would damage his meridians and internal organs.

Seeing this, the empress silently came behind Ye Jingtang and raised her hand to hold the spear tail lightly.

Boom!

Eunuch Cao, who was still exerting strength, was instantly pressed against the stepped platform.

Ye Jingtang felt the pressure in his hands decrease sharply, and the pouring rain was covered by the red umbrella above his head. Shock flashed across his eyes as he looked at the beauty in red beside him.

The empress stood beside him, holding the Black Qilin Spear with one hand, a very domineering look in her eyes. “That’s not how you use a spear.”

Then her shoulder moved slightly. No qi leaked out, and even her red sleeve didn’t flutter. But the Black Qilin Spear pushed forward another two inches.

Boom!

The white stone steps instantly exploded, and Eunuch Cao’s entire body sank into the bricks.

Eunuch Cao didn’t have much internal energy to begin with. After facing Qiu Tianhe and Ye Jingtang head-on, his stamina was already at the end of its rope.

And in the end, the empress ran over to deal the finishing blow. A vast amount of qi penetrated his body. Although it still couldn’t pierce through his jade bones, his lungs couldn’t take it anymore. He coughed lightly, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. His eyes, which were so calm that there were no ripples, lost their vigor in an instant.

Crack!

The empress drew out the spear. The old eunuch leaning against the pit slid to the ground.

Thud!

The rain all around fell completely silent at this moment, leaving only the soft sound of raindrops hitting the umbrella.

Ye Jingtang held the spear with both hands. He hadn’t even felt the attack’s circulation of qi or how powerful it was.

Ye Jingtang looked at the old eunuch, who had collapsed from the light breeze, and a look of doubting life appeared on his face as Qiu Tianhe had. “He died just like that?!”

“Unconscious.” The empress let go of the spear and covered the top of Ye Jingtang’s head with a red umbrella. Her eyes were charming, but they carried a different kind of arrogance. “Your performance just now—Cough!”

Before she could finish speaking, she let out a muffled cough. Her cheeks flushed a hint of dark red, her aura immediately became chaotic, and her body swayed.

?!

Ye Jingtang had regarded Miss Yuhu as a peerless female expert who could rival the Eight Chiefs. But when he saw this scene, the amazement in his heart disappeared. He quickly supported Great Gorgeous, who was about to collapse. “What’s wrong with you?”

He held the empress’s wrist with his hand and found that the qi in her body was running amok. She seemed to have signs of qi deviation…

F*ck!

Ye Jingtang realized that Miss Yuhu’s domineering spear attack had caused her qi to backlash. He was almost angered to death by this disappointing and pretentious Hu Dumdum. He quickly wrapped his arm under her legs, carried her sideways, and ran out of the palace. “What kind of lousy martial arts is that? That’s not how you use a spear. Do you really have the cheek to say that? If I used a spear like you did, I’m afraid I would have died long ago…”

Facing Ye Jingtang’s merciless mockery, the empress coughed twice, but she still held the umbrella above his head. “Don’t leave the palace. Take me back to the Peaceful Hall.”

“You’re about to suffer qi deviation. I’m taking you to Imperial Physician Wang.”

“Imperial Physician Wang can’t treat it.” The empress glanced at the anxious face in front of her. “I have my own secret treatment method. If you run around, something will really happen to me.”

Ye Jingtang stopped in his tracks, turned around, and ran to the harem. He lowered his head and asked, “Are you sick?”

?

The empress blinked. She felt that these words shouldn’t be scolding her, so she didn’t mind. “Practicing an evil technique has hurt my body. I’ll be fine after recuperating for a while. I won’t die for the time being. Send me back to the palace. Don’t let the palace servants see you on the way.”

Ye Jingtang felt that the woman in his arms was burning all over. She was almost cooked, and she didn’t look like she could be casually cured back to health. But it wasn’t appropriate for him to act on his own initiative now.

He ran in large strides between the palaces and pavilions and suddenly realized that there was no one in front or behind the Hall of the Supreme Principle. He slowly realized that something was wrong.

He lowered his head and looked at Great Gorgeous in his arms. He wanted to ask, but seeing that she didn’t look good, he ran to the Eternal Joy Palace first…

The thunderstorm had not stopped, but the storm was gradually coming to an end.

Many experts in the west of the city were still searching for possible hidden rebels according to orders. Under Jasper Pavilion in the east of the city, the constables of the Black Office began to rescue the prisoners gradually. The Six Gates brought people to surround the King of Wu’s mansion outside the city.

On the top of a three-story pavilion not far from the Imperial City, a few figures were holding up a long black pole that was dozens of feet long.

Cao Aning was wearing night clothes and standing on one foot on the top of the long pole. His body was swaying with the wind and rain. With a monocular in his hands, he looked over the palace wall and stared at the Hall of the Supreme Principle at the end of his vision.

In his vision, the King Ye of Hell was everywhere. Unsurprisingly, he rushed out again and blocked the red-clothed empress holding an umbrella. Then his foster father fell to the ground, and King Ye of Hell carried the red-dressed empress and left.

Cao Aning took a deep breath. His gaze lingered on the old eunuch lying in the rain for a long time before he slid down the long pole and stood on the roof ridge.

The former secret guard beside him asked, “How’s the situation in the palace?”

“The person who defeated Eunuch Cao ten years ago was the empress herself. She seems to have suffered internal injuries.” Cao Aning put away the monocular, tightened the straight saber on his back, and started walking out of the city. “Let’s go to Yan Province.”

The secret guard behind him hesitated. “Eunuch Cao said that Yan Bugui and the power behind him are using us.”

“We’re not Eunuch Cao. Foster Father is doing this for the Dongfang family, but we’re doing this for fame and fortune. If someone is useless, they’re called trash.”

“Ye Jingtang is too powerful. People often say that ‘the wages of sin is death’…”

Cao Aning stopped and turned around. “The people of the world also often say that it’s better to be safe than sorry. In the future, when this King of Hell appears within a hundred kilometers of us, no matter what happens, we’ll escape directly. I don’t believe that since I can’t provoke him, I can’t even hide.”

Hearing this, the few former secret guards behind him didn’t say anything else.. After taking one more look at the Imperial City, they disappeared into the rain one after another…
