Chapter 206 Can't Kill the Disgusting One
"The Junior Imperial Advisor?"
Seemingly sensing the murderous intent in Wu Zhao's words, Xuan Jing's expression was somewhat confused.
He tried to approach Wu Zhao, "What's wrong?"
Wu Zhao lowered his hand, a strong killing intent surging in his eyes.
"How dare you show your face in front of me?"
"A treacherous and disloyal ruler who brought about the downfall of his kingdom."
Xuan Jing's expression froze for a moment, then he clenched his fist.
"I'm not……"
His voice carried a hint of vulnerability, which made Wu Zhao sneer.
"What are you not? You didn't wipe out my entire Wu family, you didn't collude with extraterrestrial demons, and you didn't make a mess of the country and then disappear without a trace?!"
Wu Zhao's voice grew louder and louder, startling the flock of birds that were roosting in the dense forest.
An eerie aura emanated from her, and frost gradually formed on the bushes at her feet.
"I just……"
“Since you are the ruler, why don’t you refer to yourself as ‘朕’ (Zhen, the imperial “I”)?” Wu Zhao interrupted him. “You know you are unworthy, you know you are being watched by the laws, so you dare not.”
She raised her hand and suddenly grabbed Xuanjing by the neck.
"How dare you call yourself a monarch!"
"Those people who died because of you, have you ever thought of them when you slept every night for the past three thousand years?!"
Xuan Jing's already pale face looked even worse, and he struggled to grab his neck.
He exuded an aura belonging to the Wu family.
Wu Zhao was taken aback.
How could he possess the merits of the Wu family?
"Cough cough cough—" Xuan Jing coughed violently twice, and the moment he raised his hand, a black line appeared on his arm.
"That is... the seal of the Wu family's destiny?"
Wu Zhao's expression instantly turned to shock.
"You killed members of my Wu family, and then used the most vicious method to transfer the Wu family's fortune and merits to you in order to avoid the lightning punishment?!"
"You deserve to die!"
A crimson hue spread from Wu Zhao's eyes.
"Agares!"
A massive black shadow appeared behind Wu Zhao, completely obscuring the moonlight.
A gentle and elegant voice came from the darkness.
"What are your orders, my master?"
Wu Zhao raised his hand and pointed at Xuan Jing.
"kill him."
The rumble of thunder accompanied her voice as it echoed through the sky.
A muffled rumble of thunder echoed faintly from the darkness, bringing with it the terrifying aura of the Heavenly Dao.
"Do your will."
"The second pillar is happy to serve you."
Xuan Jing stared wide-eyed, his dim eyes widening in disbelief, and said, "No, you can't kill me—"
"I am your monarch... Little Grand Tutor, are you going to break your oath!"
It was as if some invisible force was pressing down on Wu Zhao, and a line of blood slowly trickled down the corner of her mouth.
The metallic taste in my mouth grew stronger.
"cough--"
Wu Zhao wiped the blood from his mouth and smiled nonchalantly.
"Back when you were wiping out my Wu family..."
“I have already decided that I will no longer keep my oath, Your Majesty.”
Agares' shadow had already loomed over Xuan Jing.
"My master, once I've made a move, you won't be able to back out..."
His words were pointed.
After being tainted by blood and karma, Wu Zhao's blood sins will become heavier and heavier.
Perhaps it won't be long before even with Gu Chen by her side, she won't be able to escape the lightning punishment unscathed.
The final result is nothing more than returning to the gates of the underworld.
"What, are you afraid to go back?"
Wu Zhao knew what Agares wanted to say, and she laughed mockingly.
"...Hmm? If I could, I'd really like to leave that awful place."
Unfortunately, the seal imposed by Heaven was far more terrifying than imagined.
As long as the Demon God Pillar exists, he will never be able to defy Wu Zhao's will.
"Ugh……"
Just as he sighed and reached out to finish off Xuan Jing, a powerful surge of spiritual energy suddenly erupted from his body.
Golden fortune and merit intertwined, and the thunder in the sky grew even more intense.
Lightning flashes were already faintly visible on the barrier, causing it to shake.
Wu Shixu, who lived in the Wu family, naturally felt this terrifying aura. He paced back and forth in the living room with some unease.
Wu Liufeng and Wu Shiyu exchanged a glance, and he stood up and walked to Wu Shixu's side.
"Father, isn't this commotion a bit too much? The guard post outside has probably been alerted. Should we stop them if they want to enter the mountain?"
That's not what Wu Shixu is worried about.
He was worried about Wu Zhao!
This chilling aura made him extremely uneasy, as if something was gradually getting out of control.
"Shiyu, take that artifact and go to the back mountain right now!"
Now?!
Wu Shiyu stood up in surprise, pressing her hand to her chest.
"Uncle, I, I'll go right away!"
Seeing the seriousness in Wu Shixu's eyes, she ran outside without delay.
Wu Liufeng sighed, "Father, then I'll go outside and try to negotiate with the garrison."
It looks like this is going to escalate...
“Go, try to hold them off.” Wu Shixu nodded.
His gaze shifted to the deep night outside the window.
Taking a deep breath, Wu Shixu murmured to himself, "Ancestor, I hope the worst won't happen today..."
Wu Zhao was unaware of the Wu family's actions.
After discovering that Xuanjing intended to use the Wu family's fortune and merits to escape, Wu Zhao hesitated for a moment.
In that instant, Xuan Jing had already flashed out of Agares's range.
“Alas… Master,” Agares sighed, “The Demon God cannot harm the Wu family. This is the guarantee that Heaven gave to the Wu family when it sealed us on the Demon God Pillar.”
The black shadow retreated slightly, and Agares appeared beside Wu Zhao.
"If he continues like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to kill him."
Xuan Jing, radiating golden light, looked like a moving sun. The complex yet familiar aura emanating from him made Wu Zhao's eyes darken.
"Young Imperial Advisor, you can't kill me."
Xuan Jing took a breath and smiled smugly.
"As long as I possess the fortune of the Wu family, you will have no way to kill me."
"That's what that person told me, and he wasn't lying to me after all."
Wu Zhao's face turned cold.
“It’s fine if we don’t kill him.” Wu Zhao pondered for a moment. “Agares, capture him.”
Agares nodded: "Catching him is no problem."
The dark shadows, like chains, instantly bound Xuan Jing and Nie Wu to the spot.
The terrifying aura emanating from Wu Zhao subsided slightly, but the faint sound of thunder could still be heard.
"Who helped you steal the Wu family's fortune?"
After Xuanjing realized he wouldn't die, his expression relaxed considerably.
“I can tell you, Little Imperial Advisor. That person told me that if I were to speak out, my luck would dissipate.”
can not say?
An ancient and exquisite calligraphy brush, imbued with a sinister aura, appeared in Wu Zhao's hand.
"That's?!" Xuan Jing exclaimed in surprise, "How could it be the Judge's Pen!"
