strangeness?
Ye Ji frowned and looked at King Chu in confusion.
King Chu sighed and continued: "We are sure that your father is dead, but the body is missing."
"Later, that group of people didn't come to us. I think they took the body away secretly."
As the saying goes, a scholar can be killed but not humiliated.
There have been laws throughout the ages. It is better to kill enemy soldiers than to humiliate them, let alone torture their corpses.
But in order to complete what they were told, they had no choice but to publicize: The Emperor is dead and his body was torn into pieces!
Only in this way can the truth that the Emperor's body was missing be concealed.
Ye Ji frowned even more after hearing this: "What do those people look like? What are their characteristics?"
King Chu raised his head and was about to answer. Suddenly, thick blood came out of his seven orifices, and the blood turned from red to black in an instant.
With a sound of "Bang!", King Chu fell to the ground, bleeding to death from his seven orifices.
Ye Ji's eyes widened in disbelief, unable to believe what she saw.
Someone poisoned King Chu in front of her?
No, that's not right!
Not poisoning!
As if she noticed something, Ye Ji blinked her beautiful eyes and instantly activated her spiritual vision, hoping to use her spiritual vision to find out the truth about King Chu's death.
However, when she turned on her spiritual vision, she only saw a dark shadow quickly slipping away from King Chu's body.
Her pupils shrank and she immediately chased after the black figure, but she didn't expect to collide with the oncoming Emperor Zun.
"Master, you're here just in time, help me chase the black shadow!" Ye Ji pointed anxiously in the direction of the black shadow's escape.
Emperor Zun frowned slightly, seeing that she could actually see the black shadow, and asked with some worry: "Did you see it?"
How could people in the Fantasy Continent see the Shadow Killer?
Ye Ji was slightly startled. It was at this time that she realized that she saw it with spiritual vision. In other words, people in the Fantasy Continent couldn't see that thing at all?
If that's the case, where did this thing come from?
Could it be that they are also from other worlds?
At this time, Protector Jin flew back and looked at the emperor with a solemn expression: "I would like to report to my lord, my subordinates are incompetent and failed to capture the black shadow."
When they noticed the aura of another world, they rushed over immediately. Unexpectedly, they saw the shadow killer at the door of the prison.
Wherever the shadow killer appears, someone is bound to die.
Alarmed by something strange, Protector Jin immediately chased after him, but the shadow killer was notoriously fast. Once he entered a dark place, he could no longer be traced.
"What happened?" Emperor Zun looked at Ye Ji with a hint of uneasiness and worry in his expression.
Ye Ji hesitated for a while and then asked: "Tell me the origin of the Shadow Killer first, and then I will explain it to you."
Emperor Zun had no choice but to introduce the origin of the Shadow Killer.
The Shadow Killer was not a killer at first, but a set of training techniques.
After mastering this set of skills, the practitioner can condense into a shadow and kill people silently in the dark.
Where there is light, the shadow killer has nowhere to hide!
But once you sneak into the shadows, you have nowhere to follow.
This set of exercises is particularly suitable for gathering intelligence and secretly killing people. For this reason, the person who created this set of exercises directly created a killer alliance to take in some homeless orphans and teach this set of exercises Give them and train them to become your own killing weapons.
"I see, they just killed King Chu." Ye Ji briefly told what happened in the prison just now.
After learning that the Shadow Killer was dispatched just to kill an emperor in the Fantasy Continent, Emperor Zun and Golden Protector looked at each other for a moment, and they both noticed something unusual.
Shadow killers are extremely expensive, and even in the spirit world, few people can afford to hire them.
But the person behind this actually hired a shadow killer to kill a powerless emperor?
"Master, where are you going?" Ye Ji asked curiously.
Emperor Zun pointed at Ye Xixi and Huangfu Sihan, who were protected by the four guardians not far away, and explained: "Take Sihan and Xixi to pay respects to Concubine Xian."
Say hello to your mother?
Ye Ji touched the tip of her nose, feeling a little embarrassed.
These things were originally supposed to be done by her, but now they are all done by Emperor Zun.
The key is that he seems to be doing a better job than himself and is more competent!
"You are in a very dangerous situation now. I will ask Protector Jin to send you back." Emperor Zun's tone was intimate and gentle.
Yeji knew that he was doing it for her own good, and besides, she had to dispose of King Chu's body, so she agreed.
Later, Emperor Zun led Huangfu Sihan and Ye Xixi to the main hall again.
In the main hall, people from the Netherworld Dynasty were laughing and talking about something. When they saw the Emperor coming, their words suddenly stopped and even their smiles disappeared.
When the emperor saw this, he was not upset, but took Huangfu Sihan and Ye Xixi and went forward to pay his respects to the concubine Xian.
As soon as Concubine Xian saw her two grandsons, a smile immediately filled her face, but she remained as indifferent to the Emperor as ever.
"Aunt, you..." Before Emperor Zun could say anything, Concubine Xian interrupted him coldly: "Don't call me aunt, I can't afford it!"
Not only Emperor Zun was stunned by this cold voice, but Huangfu Sihan and Ye Xixi were also stunned.
In their impression, grandma was always gentle and kind, so why was she acting weird today?
"Auntie, you are joking. If you can't afford it, then who else can?" Emperor Zun smiled softly, his attitude more friendly than ever.
Huangfu Sihan looked at the emperor like this and felt that he had never seen him before.
But I saw Concubine Xian snorting, her face still cold: "You are a majestic emperor, how can I afford it?"
At this time, Huangfu Sihan and Ye Xixi also discovered that grandma seemed to be very dissatisfied with her father?
What's going on here?
Huangfu Sihan blinked and looked at Ye Xixi, only to see Ye Xixi shaking her head with a dull look on her face, indicating that her sister didn't know either.
Emperor Zun also had a blank expression. He subconsciously looked at Netherworld Poro, but Netherworld Poro quickly turned his head away and looked away with a look of disgust.
However, it was not the Netherworld Poro that the emperor sought help from, but the second prince beside the Netherworld Poro.
Looking at the Lord God asking for help, the second prince smiled, and there was even a bit of schadenfreude in his smile.
"Ahem... King Chu came here just now and briefly shared with us the comments about Ye Ji in Fantasy Continent." The second prince said while suppressing a smile.
What kind of person is Emperor Zun?
That is the Supreme Spiritual Realm!
Now that he is so humble and seeking perfection, I feel really happy to see him!
Thinking of those words, Concubine Xian became extremely angry, and her heart was full of pity: "Poor my daughter, not to mention being tainted, her whole life's innocence has been ruined like this!"
"This spine is almost broken by someone!"
