The Empress’s Blind Consort: Invincible in Secret

Vol2 – Chapter 21 – Ji Wushuang Arrives in the Wilderness

September in autumn, the phoenix trees are covered in golden leaves, scattered like a carpet over the courtyard.

Present Village, Green Tiles Small House.

Meng Qingzhou lay leisurely on a recliner, sipping a cup of top-tier heavenly tea, a fan covering his face to block the sunlight, and holding a handful of immortal-grade dog food, occasionally tossing some onto the ground.

The Sunlight Lord wagged his tail wildly, tongue lolling, his dog eyes sparkling. As soon as the dog food hit the ground, he buried his head and devoured it, panting and licking the ground as if he couldn't quench his thirst.

"Lord..." Su Qingqiu squatted beside him, resting her chin on her hand, her beautiful eyes slightly dazed as she stared blankly at the Sunlight Lord.

The former Guardian Beast had retired, and now standing before you was— the famous tree marker, the Empress' loyal bootlicker, the number one divine beast of the mortal world, and the Guardian Beast who would shed blood for dog food, 'Big Yellow'!

"Master..." Wu Die also squatted nearby, her hands supporting her cheeks, staring intently at Meng Qingzhou.

Suddenly, Meng Qingzhou remembered something and said, "By the way, Wu Die, I have something to tell you. Your enemy Zhao Gou is dead, killed by the Lord of the Ancient Divine City."

Wu Die was stunned, standing up abruptly, and couldn't help but glance back at the fair maiden swinging her long, jade-like legs on the courtyard swing, saying:

"Master, did you say Zhao Gou, the traitor's son? He's dead!?"

"Yes," Meng Qingzhou nodded.

Wu Die fell into a brief confusion. Ever since she learned the truth about her brother's death, her life's goal had been revenge. She had been cultivating desperately, relying on her exceptional talent and the top-tier heavenly technique bestowed by Meng Qingzhou, breaking through to the Mountain Moving Realm just three days ago.

For this, Wu Die often couldn't sleep at night, eager to exact her revenge immediately.

But now, Meng Qingzhou told her that Zhao Gou was dead, and her target for revenge was gone.

"No need to thank me," Meng Qingzhou looked at Wu Die and transmitted his voice.

Wu Die choked, wanting to say something but stopping.

"The Zhao father and son are dead, and your grudge is settled. Back then, you attempted to assassinate the Empress' Husband and committed an act of treason, but I didn't tell the Empress."

Meng Qingzhou said calmly, "Whatever you plan to do next, whether to stay or leave, you don't need to tell me. If you stay, continue as usual. If you leave, just go quietly."

From beginning to end, Meng Qingzhou's attitude towards Wu Die was merely one of use, a tool to fleece Zhao Gou, with perhaps a touch of sympathy mixed in.

"What!?"

Dongfang Liuli, wearing an apron and carrying a few dishes from the kitchen, staggered and turned her head abruptly, glaring at Wu Die.

Assassinate the Empress' Husband!?

'Fu Qu,' who was swinging on the swing, stopped her movements. Her originally golden pupils turned crimson, her hair turning white, her expressionless face now exuding a silent terror.

"Uh..." Wu Die's hair stood on end, not daring to look back, feeling as if her back was being sliced by sharp gazes.

Meng Qingzhou smiled and comforted Dongfang Liuli, saying:

"No need to panic. When I took Wu Die in, she had already changed her mind. Although assassinating the Empress' Husband is a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations, fortunately, Wu Die stopped in time and didn't cause a great disaster."

Dongfang Liuli forced a smile, "Indeed..."

My foolish husband, do you know that the target she wanted to assassinate back then was you!

How can you still act so indifferent!

"Wu Die promised that in gratitude, she would serve the Master for life, never leaving his side!" Wu Die said firmly.

Zhao Gou was dead, her great revenge was achieved, and she was freed. From now on, she would live for herself.

And the meaning of Wu Die's life was the blind young man before her.

"Come to the Imperial Study later. I need to hear your explanation personally," Dongfang Liuli's cold voice sounded in Wu Die's ear.

Wu Die's pretty face grew more bitter, and she replied through voice transmission, "Yes."

Ugh, the courtyard was full of big shots in disguise, and only she and Su Qingqiu were newbies. This life was unbearable.

Better find a chance to kidnap the Master and escape this place of trouble.

...

...

Meanwhile.

In a deep abyss thousands of miles away from the Great Jin Dynasty, where sunlight never reached, and dust obscured the universe, cultivators below the Sea Covering Realm could not stay long, or they would perish.

At the bottom of the abyss, a towering city stood.

Skeletons patrolled the city, holding divine weapons corroded by rust, moving in an orderly manner.

In the center of the city, only a skeletal throne stood.

The Bone King, with hollow eyes gazing skyward, held a broken blade, as if he had once swung it towards the heavens. His aura of supreme arrogance, even after a thousand years of silence, still lingered.

Crack, crack...

The skeleton on the throne suddenly moved, its hollow eyes igniting with ghostly flames, and stood up straight.

"The backup plan left by the clan leader, even after a thousand years, still works..."

A young man's divine thought echoed from within the Bone King, muttering to himself.

"Rebirth!"

With a low roar, flesh and blood began to form within the Bone King, growing rapidly!

In just a few seconds, a young man with black hair, black clothes, and black eyes appeared!

"The seven major forces dared to betray me, huh..."

"A bunch of old dogs, they deserve to die!"

The young man, handsome and jade-like, with a cold expression, exuded an air of superiority, looking down on the entire Wilderness as if it were just a land of barbarians.

"And... Space-Time Sword Saint Meng Qin, your talent is not bad, worthy of being my slave."

"As for the Empress of Great Jin and her husband, they will either die or submit."

"Wilderness, I, Ji Wushuang, have arrived! Prepare for your doom."

Ji Wushuang took a deep breath and punched the ground, causing the abyss to tremble and the dead city to collapse with a roar.

The ground cracked, and a golden spear emerged...

"The divine power of spirit control is not perfect, only transferring fifty percent of my cultivation, but this fifty percent, at the early stage of the Morning Glow Realm, is enough to sweep through the Wilderness."

"Taking advantage of the chaos in Sky State, I'll seize the Wilderness for the Ji family ahead of time. Who would have thought."

"Hahaha..."

Ji Wushuang's black eyes flashed like lightning, and he stomped the ground fiercely, his figure shooting out of the abyss in an instant.

His vision could pierce through endless distances, focusing on the former stronghold of the seven major forces, now a wasteland.

"A bunch of old dogs, hiding and thinking I can't see you?"

"Come out and pay homage!"

Ji Wushuang shouted.

Then, two old ancestors of the Great Qian, looking withered and on the brink of death, crossed the void and arrived.

Following them were Old Ancestor Taotie, the former priest of the Shaman God Sect, and others...

A group of undercover old ancestors exchanged solemn glances.

The second young master of the Ji family—Ji Wushuang, had arrived in the Wilderness! Six months earlier than expected.
