Everyone looked at one another in dismay, but Duke Xuan came out unscathed and his face was filled with joy and astonishment, so that caused the pressure in everyone’s heart to lessen several times The miserable fate of the Duke Huai Palace had caused them to be so anxious that they could scarcely carry on Moreover, every single moment spent in the presence of the Little Demon Empress filled them with boundless terror, and their minds could not help but illustrate various terrible scenarios But Duke Xuan had only gone in for a few moments, and he had clearly been pardoned at the end of it
They began to feel that, perhaps their sheer terror had been overblown… That was right, after all, they all belonged to Guardian Fa the Illusory Deh such a big change, so the foundations and supports were evenall the Duke Palaces, Duke Xuan was already a the weakest, and his palace could not even compare to the Guardian Faave all their effort to repent and prove their loyalty, the Little Deo with the flow and absolve theht, everyone’s hearts ireat deal, and even the at and oppressive any, enter”
The Little De out from the stone room, and this time, her voice su
“Patriarch…” A few of the core elders in the Helian Fa orried expressions on their faces
“Don’t worry After all, I a will happen tosucked in a heavy breath as he strode towards the stone roo icy sensation assaulted him and caused him to feel chills all over, so he involuntarily shivered Helian Kuang did not dare to meet the Little Demon Empress’ eyes, instead he hurriedly kneeled and said, “This sinner Helian Kuang greets the Little Demon Empress”
“You may rise” The Little Demon Ele fluctuation in her eht and said, “Be seated”
There was no killing intent, no fury, not even a feeling of oppression, and he did not even need to kneel All of this caused Helian Kuang’s heart to be steadied He slowly rose to his feet and carefully shifted into the stone seat
The Little Demon Empress extended her hand and a delicate white jade teacup appeared in her palm With a flip of her hand, the teacup rose in the air as if it was being guided by a light wind and it floated across to the land on the stone table in front of Helian Kuang, “Patriarch Helian, please have some tea”
The white jade of the teacup was flawless, but its contents were empty and there was not even a drop of tea inside of it But hoould Helian Kuang dare to show even the slightest bit of dissent Even if the Little Deht now, he would respond by barking a few tiht it to his mouth He carefully raised his head andhis tea, and it was only after a good long while that he set the teacup doith the ut?” The Little Dehtly narrowed, but her words were bland
Helian Kuang hurriedly cupped his hands and said, “Yes… the rich and s only in the heavens… I thank the Little Demon Empress for this drink”
“Since the tea has already been drunk,” The Little Demon Empress’ eyes shone faintly, “then you can leave on your journey with your mind at ease!”
As her final word fell, the Little Deh space, and she suddenly appeared in front of Helian Kuang as if she were a demon out of hell A small snow-jade delicate hand held flames that seemed to emanate from the fiery pits of hell, and it heavily s’s chest The wild and violent Golden Crow Flale instant, all his internal organs had been co’s eyes widened rigidly as the world spun around hi out, and Helian Kuang’s body flew out of the stone room and violently s there When he landed on the ground, his eyes had widened into circles as he stared at the ceiling There was no sound co frohastly, black scorch athered core elders of the Helian Family screamed in alarm as they rushed forward, but there was not even a sliver of life left in Helian Kuang’s body A thick and acrid smell of burnt flesh wafted from his entire body, and his death could not be any at the body in front of them, the core elders of the Helian Family had been scared out of theirall over At this ti out fro the Patriarch of a Guardian Fa colluded with Duke Huai and conspired to rebel against the throne, so his death was richly deserved Furtherinally to be extended to the entire Helian Fa faithfully served and protected the clan of the Demon Emperor for the past ten thousand years, this erant your Helian Family an opportunity to turn over a new leaf… Helian Tu!”
The Second Elder of the Helian Family, whose name had just been called, jerked up with a start as he frantically turned around and sank to his knees
“From today onward, you will be the new Patriarch of the Helian Fa’s carcass over to the North Gate in two hours time and suspend it there! Leave it exposed to the public for seven days, and within these seven days, if anyone dares to retrieve his corpse, plead for mercy, or publicly mourn for him, execute that person on the spot!”
“Moreover, if anyone in your Helian Fahtest bit of dissent, if this empress is aware of it, I will kill that person! If any of you have the audacity to put your clan first and defy htest hint of perfidy again, this eer have a Helian Family!”
Every word that the Little Demon Empress uttered caused the dread within the hearts of the core elders of the Helian Family to escalate exponentially But if the death of one person could be exchanged for the safety of the entire Helian Fanant over his death Helian Tu said in a shaky voice, “We will obey the commands of the Little Demon Empress… I thank the Little Demon Empress for her mercy Our Helian Family will remain steadfastly loyal to the Little Deive our lives for you…”
“Also, the Purple Veined Divine Crystals that you owe the Yun Faet about the’s body away as his head jerked up and down in fear He scra on the edge of a blade
Terror wildly swept across the Deht relief that they had felt after seeing Duke Xuan come out unscathed completely disappeared in an instant, and everyone’s faces were so pale that it seemed all the blood had been drained out of them… For ten thousand years, the Helian Family’s status as a Guardian Family had been second only to the Yun Fa, had been personally executed by the Little Demon Empress… So if that could happen to him, what lay in store for the other Guardian Fa Kui, enter”
All eyes turned towards the Jiufang Fa, but just as he s went soft, and he sank to his knees onceeyes clearly displayed the boundless dread that had welled up in his heart The horrific death of Helian Kuang had planted a devil in his heart… because he was extreh the Helian Family may have been the first to switch their loyalties over to the Duke Huai Palace, his Jiufang Fa Clan and the Helian Clan had originally been close because of their shared raceThey had also interenerations…
She had just killed Helian Kuang and then called for hi Kui… how could he not be terrified?
