C384 Nightmare
"Your Majesty, the Su Family's three generations served with loyalty and loyalty through their Hailuan. "Now, I, Su Mingjiu, will also swear to go through fire and water for His Majesty! I will admonish him with my words!"
As Su Mingjiu spoke, he kowtowed three more times towards the king. The king, looking puzzled, stooped to help him up.
"If you have anything to say, just say it. Why do you need to do this?"
"This subject... "Worry about being disloyal …"
"Even if my beloved one said that his words were heartrending, even if it was against my ears, the Gu family would still listen."
"We can't let Luo Jianjian live!"
Su Mingjiu was straightforward, the king's smile froze on his face.
"This Luo Jianjian is a wondrous woman that appears only once in a thousand years. She came to my Hailuan for a few short days and solved the biggest problem in the Hailuan Fisheries.
"As Your Majesty had said, why didn't you leave such a strange woman like her in Tianqi and let her come to our Hailuan? There is no great river, no sea. Why is Luo Jianjian, as a man of heaven, capable of building ships, fishing and Fish Imitation Skill? "
Su Mingjiu's question was indeed sharp. The king frowned and was speechless.
"Then why does she think so?"
"Naturally, it's to deal with our Hailuan! From what I can see, this Luo Jianjian is a spy sent by the Heavenly Enlightenment. He deliberately trained in the shipbuilding technique and Fish Imitation Skill, all so that he could bewitch us. After obtaining our trust, we will then work with Heaven's Enlightenment to swallow our Hailuan! "
When the king heard this, his brow furrowed even deeper, and his body tensed up. He could not help but let his imagination run wild. Seeing that the king was already suspicious, Su Mingjiu continued to add fuel to the fire.
"Other than that, there's something else that's strange about Luo Jianjian. Collect that Full Moon Stone, that Full Moon Stone is my Hailuan filled with body's energy, an auspicious item. This subject has previously heard that there were some extraordinary individuals who would use crafty techniques to refine their energy and cultivate in the arts of ghosts and demons. "Luo Jianjian's ability to build a ship by herself and to dive into the sea like a fish is really strange!"
The King was completely captivated by Su Mingjiu's words. The more he thought about it, the more scared he became. Now was the time to prepare for battle, the time to have a fight to the death with Heaven's Initiation. If something went wrong, then there would be no way out.
However, Luo Jianjian's shipbuilding skills and Fish Imitation Skill were truly too enticing, and if he were to give up now, the king would not be willing to do so.
"Su Aiqing, from today onwards, you must pay more attention to the whereabouts of Luo Jianjian. Do not interrupt her teaching of shipbuilding and Fish Imitation Skill. It's best to collect the evidence without making a sound. Once it has been proven that Luo Jianjian is truly an expert from the heavens, and after confirming that my Hailuan's subjects have already mastered the shipbuilding technique and Fish Imitation Skill, I will capture Luo Jianjian and put her in prison! "
"This official obeys the decree!"
The corner of Su Mingjiu's mouth raised into a sneer. This proved that Luo Jianjian was the witness of a spy. He could simply make it up. Now, as long as they waited, someone would learn the shipbuilding technique and the Fish Imitation Skill, and Luo Jianjian would die.
Heaven's Enlightenment Capital, inside of the Imperial Palace's Ji Imperial Palace's library.
Murong Yun was sleeping on a chair beside the library. His forehead was covered with cold sweat, his face was pale, and his body was slightly trembling.
He fell into a nightmare. In his dream, he saw Luo Jianjian standing in the middle of the raging fire, staring at him with a cold and desolate expression.
"Murong Yun!" I hate you! Why didn't you come and save me? "
"Jianjian!"
Murong Yun wanted to break into the flames to save Luo Jianjian, but no matter how much he ran, he couldn't get close to Luo Jianjian.
"So hot …" So painful … Murong Yun... "Save me, save me!"
Luo Jianjian, who was in the middle of the fire, roared at him. The fire kept engulfing her body, turning her into ashes and scattering her in the wind in front of Murong Yun.
"No!" No! "Jianjian, Jianjian!"
Murong Yun stood up with a scream. He opened his eyes and saw the candle flame in the library. He could not help but glare at it.
"Phew …" "Phew …"
Murong Yun was immersed in darkness and could only hear his own breathing. Luo Jianjian had been gone from him for more than a month, and he had nightmares and was never happy again.1
"Your Highness?" Your Highness? "
A fire lit up outside the library, Feng Qing's concerned tone could be heard outside the door. Feng Qing was resting in the small room outside the library. When he heard Murong Yun's scream, he hurriedly got up and rushed over.
Murong Yun raised his head and looked at the shadow of the candle flame outside the door and frowned. He clenched his fists and walked quickly to the door.
Murong Yun opened the door and quickly walked out. Seeing that he was fine, Feng Qing heaved a sigh of relief. However, when he saw Murong Yun walking away so quickly, he quickly followed him.
"Your Highness, it's already time. Where are you going?"
"To kill a person, if he doesn't die, This King will go crazy!"
Murong Yun said coldly as he quickened his pace. Feng Qing was shocked by Murong Yun's words and became nervous.
He thought about the days that had passed since Luo Jianjian's incident. Murong Yun seemed to have become a completely different person. He became cold and emotionless. There was no one else and nothing that could make him smile.
Even if he had to pretend to be smiling in front of Noble Consort and Murong Xue, he refused.
Yue Qiqi, who was sleeping alone in the Ji Imperial Palace bed also heard Murong Yun's scream. This was not the first time. Every night when she heard Murong Yun's scream, Yue Qiqi would feel fear and unease.
When she opened the door and saw Murong Yun walking out of the Ji Imperial Palace, the frightful icy-cold look on his face had already made Yue Qiqi's admiration towards Murong Yun disappear completely. He was only thinking about how to get rid of Murong Yun.
Murong Yun walked out of the Ji Imperial Palace and quickly headed towards the justice courts. Only then did Feng Qing, who followed closely behind, let out a sigh of relief. The person Murong Yun wanted to kill was Ling Luo. As long as it wasn't the Emperor, it was fine as long as it wasn't Crown Princess.
Ling Luo, who had already been tortured for a month, was now covered in wounds and her face was completely ruined.
In order to prevent Ling Luo from escaping, Murong Yun had the blacksmith in the capital forge a chain as thick as his wrist and tie Ling Luo to a pillar. Even if Ling Luo had some ability, she wasn't able to break free from the thick and solid iron chains.
However, Ling Luo wouldn't just wait patiently for death to happen. She secretly ground the iron chains with gravel, day after day. He could see that two-thirds of the metal chain had been grinded off, and he was on the verge of escaping.
Ling Luo prayed every day that Murong Yun wouldn't suddenly think of her, but today, her nightmare had come true.
Murong Yun walked to her cell door without hesitation and looked at her gloomily.
Ling Luo's eyes were covered by bloodstains, and they were all blood-red when she looked at Murong Yun. She was afraid of him, even as a Adept. She couldn't help but be afraid of the man in front of her.
Murong Yun had a decisive killing intent. It was related to him fighting on the battlefield since he was young, and killing people to see blood. Adding to Luo Jianjian's incident, Murong Yun was like a living yaksha in hell.
Ling Luo swallowed her saliva uneasily. She didn't know why Murong Yun had suddenly come here.
"Someone, bring me some saltpeter and firewood."
Murong Yun stared at Ling Luo for a long time before he suddenly spoke.
