Chapter 0295 Interrogation!
“Xiang’er …”
Zhu Li’s voice suddenly sounded in the garden.
Xiang’er walked out of the room in the depths of the garden and looked at Zhu Li in surprise, “Your Majesty, why are you here?”
She was very curious why Zhu Li had come here so quickly since he had only been separated from her for less than half an hour.
“Haha, I feel so bored by myself, so I want to talk to you!” Zhu Li smiled and grabbed her hand. “Can I walk with you?”
“Your Majesty has orders, how could Xiang’er not obey?” Xiang’er smiled.
The two of them strolled around for a while before the guards suddenly came to report.
“Your Majesty, Lord Zhendu requests to see you!”
“Oh? Brother Fei is back? Quickly send him over!” Zhu Li revealed a happy expression.
“Your Majesty, why are you so happy?” Xiang’er asked curiously.
“Didn’t Lonemoon say that the Profound Spirit Cauldron in the Imperial Palace was missing? I told Lord Zhendu to search for it. He must have brought good news to Lonemoon when he returned this time!” Zhu Li smiled.
Hearing this, Xiang’er’s eyes revealed a hint of joy as she congratulated, “Your Majesty, Hong Fu Qi Tian, the fragment of the Profound Spirit Cauldron has been recovered, the joy of the empire!”
Zhu Li looked at her happier than he was, and his expression did not change at all, but his heart suddenly sank …
“Your Majesty!”
Very quickly, Qin Fei arrived and bowed to Zhu Li. Then, he bowed to Xiang’er and said, “Empress of the Imperial Palace.”
“Brother Fei, there’s no need to be too polite. There are no outsiders here. You must have brought good news with you this time, right?” Zhu Li smiled.
“Brother Li, the fragment of the Profound Spirit Cauldron has been found. To ensure its safety, it is stored in my palace. I do not dare to carry it with me. I am afraid that it will be snatched away. Please send out the experts of the Heavenly Martial Sect to take over!” Qin Fei said.
“Good! You did the right thing. It is indeed easy for accidents to happen when you bring the Profound Spirit Cauldron fragment alone. I will immediately call them forward and escort the Profound Spirit Cauldron fragment to the Imperial Palace!” Zhu Li praised.
“Xiang’er, you go back first. I still have things to do, so I won’t accompany you!” He said to Xiang’er.
Xiang’er left obediently.
Very quickly, the Tianwu experts in the palace flew out of the palace and headed towards the palace.
About half an hour later, the Tianwu experts flew out of the palace and headed towards the imperial palace. Halfway through, a terrifying aura suddenly shot out from the ground. The violent barbaric aura was like a flood, trapping the Tianwu experts.
“How dare you? Who dares to block the way?” An old man roared angrily.
“Hmph! Hand over the Profound Spirit Cauldron fragment! Otherwise, die!” A cold female voice sounded, and then a beautiful figure appeared in mid-air, the veil covering her face, making it impossible to see her appearance.
“You’re courting death!” The old man was furious. He waved his hand and a surging profound energy soared into the sky. The color of the heavens and the earth changed as it shot towards the woman with terrifying power.
“Over-confident!”
The woman snorted and disappeared in the blink of an eye. When she reappeared, she was already in front of the old man. With a palm strike, lightning surged, and her tyrannical aura was extremely tyrannical.
The old man hurriedly retreated and landed on the ground with the others, appearing in a small alley.
The woman also landed and stood in the alley. She coldly looked at them and said, “Hand it over, and I’ll spare your lives!”
“Pa pa …”
Suddenly, a burst of applause rang out. The woman’s expression under the veil changed. She turned around and couldn’t help but say, “Lord Zhendu! Why are you here?”
The person who clapped his hands was Qin Fei. He smiled as he stood at the entrance of the alley and said, “Empress, I really didn’t expect that you would hide it from me!”
“What nonsense are you talking about? I’m not the Empress!” The woman cried out in shock.
“Yes or no, this is really uncertain! Perhaps the real Empress has already been killed by you, right?” Qin Fei suddenly sneered and said, “Your country abbot is dead, and the barbarians are also dead. Do you still want to live alone?”
“You … they’re all dead? How is that possible?” The woman simply tore off her veil, revealing her beautiful face. It was the Empress.
“I killed them. Are you satisfied with such an answer?” Qin Fei curled his lips and said.
“Damn it! I’ve been tricked by you! Zhu Li lied to me too!” Xiang’er said in a hoarse voice.
“That’s right! We just want to test whether you’re a barbarian or not. From the looks of it, we can be sure! Everyone, attack!” Qin Fei shrugged his shoulders and said to the Tianwu experts.
Swoosh, they moved, instantly surrounding Xiang’er in the middle, launching an attack in unison.
The power that these people erupted out at this moment caused one’s heart to tremble. Originally, they had not used their full strength when dealing with the First Prince and the others, but now, it was extremely shocking to erupt out.
They were all at the ninth level of the Heavenly realm!
Xiang’er was forced to reveal her barbarian form, but she was still unable to resist!
The aura she displayed was at the seventh level of the Heavenly realm, much lower than the abbot. At other times, she could indeed cover the sky with one hand and even easily destroy a prefecture city. However, in the face of the siege of these ninth level Heavenly realm martial artists, she could not even fight back at this moment.
Her aura was trapped in a circle and could not be poured out. Even a brick and tile in the alley could not be shattered.
“Plop!”
Her body fell to the ground fiercely and she was powerless to resist.
The old man was about to kill when Qin Fei said, “Leave her alive. His Majesty has something to ask her!”
“Bang!”
The old man changed his palm to a slap, hitting her back, sealing her strength, then grabbed her and flew into the depths of the palace with the others …
Qin Fei was so angry that he stamped his feet, “Damn it, why didn’t you bring Brother with you?”
He rushed to the palace as fast as he could. Zhu Li’s expression was extremely ugly, filled with anger, sorrow, and self-blame.
“Brother Li, how’s it going?” Qin Fei looked at Zhu Li with concern. It seemed that he had already interrogated Xiang’er.
“Brother Fei” Zhu Li looked at him with tears in his eyes as he said sadly, “Xiang’er is dead! The real Xiang’er died a month after she married me … sadly, I actually didn’t notice … and even slept with my wife’s murderer for nearly five years …”
“Brother Li, you can’t be blamed for this. What did that barbarian woman do?” Qin Fei didn’t know how to comfort Zhu Li. Anyone else would be in pain for a while, so he could only change the topic.
‘”He’s locked up. There are some things that need to be clarified. The barbarians have always invaded my border, but they haven’t gone deeper into the interior. This time, they’ve planned for such a long time. They actually want to obtain the Profound Spirit Cauldron to subvert our Profound Spirit Empire! I want the barbarians to pay the price!” Sure enough, Zhu Li’s attention was successfully diverted, and a deep killing intent appeared in his eyes.
“It is indeed very strange!” Qin Fei nodded deeply.
The barbarians had plotted such a big conspiracy this time.
“Brother Fei, how did you discover that the abbot was faked by the barbarians? And how did you know that they were plotting against the Profound Spirit Cauldron?” Zhu Li suddenly changed the topic and looked straight at Qin Fei.
Qin Fei’s heart skipped a beat as he thought to himself, “It’s not good. It’s time to come!”
Previously, he was concerned about Zhu Li’s safety, so he didn’t think too much about it because he was afraid that something would happen to Zhu Li.
Now that the trouble had come, Zhu Li asked the reason. He didn’t know how to answer this question for a moment.
Qin Fei stammered, “This … I also accidentally found out. Coincidence, it’s a coincidence …”
“Coincidence? Then why are you looking for the abbot? As far as I know, you have no dealings with him. The only time we met was on the day I ascended the throne. I didn’t even say a word. Why did you appear at Linfeng Manor?” Zhu Li’s expression suddenly became fierce as he looked straight at Qin Fei, his eyes shining as if he wanted to see through Qin Fei’s thoughts.
Qin Fei’s heart trembled. This was the first time Zhu Li had stared at him with such a terrifying gaze. It was much more fruitful than the previous times.
“Brother Li, I…” He secretly clenched his fists, wondering what to do. If Zhu Li attacked him, what should he do? Or run?
After Zhu Li became the emperor, he had done many things to himself. He wanted to hand over the teleportation array and hand over the Iron Castle to the royal family. Qin Fei was actually very dissatisfied. He felt that he had completely changed. He felt that the emperor was truly heartless.
He had once asked himself what he would do if Zhu Li were to fall out with him one day.
He had thought of resisting him regardless of his sworn allegiance. He had thought that if he forced himself to flee, the worst outcome would even be war.
But now, facing Zhu Li’s questioning, his heart was suddenly in chaos. He didn’t know if he should fight him!
Brotherhood, is it really going to end like this?
Zhu Li walked towards him step by step, staring at him.
The atmosphere grew heavier and heavier.
Qin Fei’s breathing quickened, and his fists clenched tighter and tighter …
