I Have the Alchemy Emperor in My Head - Chapter 1381
1381 Great Wei Has Changed
As Chu Yunfan flew, he checked Ye Tiannan and Tie Nu’s interspatial rings.
In comparison, although Tie Nu’s cultivation was stronger, perhaps because he was a slave, there were less than five million low-grade spirit stones in his ring. Although this was an astronomical figure for a Divine, it was pitifully little for a peak Void Core.
On the contrary, Ye Tiannan was much richer. He had more than 30 million low-grade spirit stones and a vast amount of various treasures. Tie Nu could not compare to his wealth.
Even Chu Yunfan couldn’t help but click his tongue in wonder.
As expected, one was just a servant, while the other was the young master. Their positions were completely different, even though Tie Nu’s strength far exceeded Ye Tiannan’s.
!!
In the end, Chu Yunfan had benefited from all of this.
As he counted, Chu Yunfan entered the territory of Great Wei. He went straight back to Conglong, but his return didn’t alarm anyone.
Just as he returned to Marquis Zhongxin’s residence in Conglong, he discovered that the entire residence was being sealed up, and the servants were being dragged away by a group of soldiers with their hands tied.
In just a few short days, the residence had already changed greatly.
How could Chu Yunfan not understand? Great Wei’s Imperial Court must have made a move on the residence.
“Chu Yunfan, is it really you?” a surprised voice called out. Chu Yunfan turned around and saw a delicate figure striding over in surprise.
Chu Yunfan was at the corner of the street. He turned around and saw Situ Miaoyi.
Situ Miaoyi’s delicate face was filled with surprise and disbelief. Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears. “You’re not dead!” She quickly came to his side.
Chu Yunfan could hear the surprise in Situ Miaoyi’s voice. “How could I have diead?” he said lightly. “What’s going on?” He pointed at the residence that had been sealed up.
“You don’t know? A few days ago, the Imperial Court suddenly announced that you despised the Imperial Court and intended to rebel,” Situ Miaoyi said after she had calmed down.
Seeing Chu Yunfan return safely, Situ Miaoyi was overjoyed. Although she had always believed that he would be fine, that was only what she thought. Some people even said that it was wishful thinking.
She would come here every day, trying to wait for Chu Yunfan, but after so many days, he was nowhere to be seen. Even she was a little discouraged. If Chu Yunfan was still here, he should have returned long ago, but there was no sign of him coming back at all.
It was as the Imperial Court had said, they already killed him in the outer realm.
However, who knew that she would suddenly see Chu Yunfan’s return today? She was overjoyed.
“Killed in the outer realms?” Chu Yunfan laughed coldly. Great Wei’s Imperial Court really had a good plan.
Even someone like Chu Yunfan, who had become famous in a short period of time and was not afraid of anything, had died at the hands of the Imperial Court. One could imagine that everyone had to look at the Imperial Court in a new light during this period. The stronger the Imperial Court was, the more people did not dare to show themselves.
“Three days ago, the second prince made a comeback and personally ordered that all the direct relatives of the Chu clan within three generations be executed. The distant relatives were banished as slaves, and all the property of Marquis Zhongxin’s residence was sold and confiscated,” Situ Miaoyi said.
She too felt that it was too much. It was clearly the second prince who plotted against Chu Yunfan, but Chu Yunfan was accused of attempting to rebel and was killed. However, her words carried little weight and she could not do anything.
Who knew that she would be pleasantly surprised by Chu Yunfan’s return?
Chu Yunfan’s eyes suddenly flashed as he said, “Then the entire Chu clan has been executed?”
He knew that if the Imperial Court made up its mind, the Chu clan would not be able to resist. Even though Marquis Zhongxin’s residence seemed to be a noble family of Great Wei and had an awe-inspiring presence, at this time, they were even more fragile than those ordinary sects.
This was because his power came from Great Wei’s Imperial Court and not his own strength. Therefore, once the Imperial Court turned hostile, killing them was just a matter of words. A few small officials were enough to put the entire Chu clan to death.
On the contrary, because the strength of ordinary sects came from themselves and their inheritance, even if Great Wei’s Imperial Court wanted to turn hostile and attack, it was impossible for them to uproot a sect with just a few words.
“I’m too late.” Chu Yunfan immediately regretted it. He had only stayed in the outer realm for just a few days. He had thought that the Imperial Court would not be so cruel and would at most deal with him alone.
After all, the Marquis Zhongxin residence was one of the founders of the kingdom. From the founding of the country until now, they had made countless contributions to the court. Even the deaths of several generations of heirs were due to the court.
As the saying went, one should look at the Buddha’s face. Even if there was no merit, there was hard work. On account of the many years that the Marquis Zhongxin residence had worked for Great Wei, they would not be implicated.
But now, Chu Yunfan realized that he had underestimated the viciousness of the Imperial Court. The current emperor was indeed a ruthless and decisive person. Once he decided to make a move on him, he did not beat around the bush and directly attacked ruthlessly.
And attacking the residence was clearly to eliminate future troubles. Chu Yunfan was the hope of the residence to rise, but now it was killed by the Imperial Court. It was impossible to say that the residence had no complaints. But if there really wasn’t one, as long as the emperor felt that one might have one, then it was the path to death.
A single groundless accusation was enough!
Thinking of this, Chu Yunfan’s killing intent completely erupted, and he couldn’t control it at all.
“No. Yesterday, Marquis Zhongxin’s family was escorted to the execution ground, but they were saved on the eve of execution,” Situ Miaoyi quickly said.
Hearing Situ Miaoyi’s words, Chu Yunfan’s killing intent was slightly restrained. “Saved by someone? Do you know who it is?” he asked.
“I don’t. No one does. It’s said that the second prince is completely enraged and has ordered for an investigation to get to the bottom of this. However, no one knows who it is so far. For people like us who have contact with you, there are many spies from the Agency of Secrets near our homes,” Situ Miaoyi said.
