“Poison?!”

In the Palace of Compassion, Sang Qien and Zheng Dan were at a loss. At first, they'd thought they heard incorrectly. After all, they were in the heavily-guarded Imperial Palace, and this was even the empress dowager’s private palace. It really was hard to imagine that there could be poison here.

Zheng Dan was involved with the world of warriors, so she immediately reacted and noticed ssmoke rising from the corner.

“Servants!” Liu Ning shouted, but no one replied.

“Your highness, there's no need for all this shouting. I’ve already dealt with all of the guards and eunuchs outside.” A figure slowly walked in. Zheng Dan and Sang Qien saw that he was an individual dressed in a grand eunuch outfit. The feeling he gave off was really sinister, as if he never got any sunlight all year round and hid in the shadows like a vampire.

The two women realized something and immediately guessed his identity. This was the empress dowager palace’s Chief Eunuch, Eunuch Lu! When she faced the Devil Sect Master, the empress dowager had been plotted against by this man, and that was why she'd had to flee to the Sang clan while seriously injured.

Sure enough, Liu Ning hissed through gritted teeth, “Lu Qi, it was actually you!”

“Of course it's me.” Eunuch Lu had a sinister smile as he replied, “How could I just leave her highness behind and leave?”

Liu Ning becsilent. She hated Lu Qi bitterly and had tried to find him to get revenge after the fact, but she couldn't find any traces of him at all, and had only been able to order his arrest through the court. How could she have anticipated that they would meet again in this kind of situation?

“What kind of poison did you use on me?” she asked in confusion. She was, after all, at the peak of grandmaster rank. Ordinary poisons weren't supposed to be effective on her at all!Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt

“A kind of flower from the monster world that is especially effective against the cultivators of this world,” Eunuch Lu said with a smile.

“So you sided with the monsters after all!” Liu Ning shouted hatefully. “But you clearly killed that monster that was trying to fool you. Why would you still betray me?”

“I did kill it at first, but later, in the dead of night, I suddenly felt that what the monster said made sense.” Eunuch Lu chuckled. “Compared to staying in the shadows forever and watching you and the regent make love, I still felt that it would be better if I experienced her highness for myself. More monsters cto recruit me, and we smoothly agreed to work together. It was thanks to the fact that I killed that monster that you didn’t suspectin the slightest.”

“You’re despicable!” Liu Ning was furious. She wanted to get up and attack him, but she staggered and couldn't muster up much strength at all.

“It would be best not to use ki. It will only worsen the effects of the poison. It won’t be much fun if you end up fainting.” Eunuch Lu admired Liu Ning’s incredible figure from afar and remarked, “Your highness, you truly are beautiful.”

Liu Ning said gravely, “Those two monster leaders have already been killed by the regent. No one would have pursued you if you fled, but now that you’ve returned, there’s no way for you to escape at all anymore.” She needed to stall for time. Part of the reason was to see if she could force out the poison, and the other part was that she was hoping someone in the palace would notice the abnormalities that were happening and cto save her.

“Run? Why do I need to run?” Eunuch Lu shrugged and said, “I saw how the regent killed the Doomsday Spirit and the Plague Monarch. I have to admit that the regent is the most powerful man I have ever seen. He is even more powerful than Zhao Han ever was. Just watching a powerful man like that have his way with you is already exciting enough just thinking about it.”

Liu Ning was speechless.

Sang Qien and Zheng Dan exchanged a look. They saw the sweird expression in each other's eyes. They had heard Liu Ning talk about Eunuch Lu before, and knew that he had a twisted sense of love, but they had never expected it to be to this extent!

Liu Ning took a deep breath to suppress the anger she felt before exclaiming, “Then why did you betray us?!”

“Because my body was incomplete, of course.” Eunuch Lu was suddenly a bit stirred, saying, “I could only watch the regent enjoy your body without being able to do anything. Even though I was stimulated in ssense, after that there was only an endless void. Sometimes, I wondered... If I were a true man, and I could really enjoy Mount Wu with you, would I feel even greater happiness if I saw you dominated by another man after that?”

Dumbfounded, Liu Ning exclaimed, “You freak!”

Sang Qien and Zheng Dan both cursed under their breath too. Their faces went completely red. Did people from the Imperial Palace really play in such a crazy way? They had thought that Zu An was a bit too perverted, but now, Ah Zu actually seemed to be the most normal one. These freaks were the real damned perverts!

Eunuch Lu looked down at a certain bulge protruding from his lower body. His expression twisted as he said, “Ning’er, with the monsters’ help, I’ve already beca true man. I can finally becone with you!”

Liu Ning looked at him with complete revulsion and said, “Even though the past Lu Qi was a bit cowardly and had strange fetishes, he was still a friend I grew up with. Now, you're nothing more than a monster that has been contaminated by other monsters. I feel nothing but disgust for you.”

“You can say what you will. Either way, there's no going back for me.” Eunuch Lu’s expression suddenly becfiercer as he said, “Today, I'm going to achieve everything I've ever wanted to do in this life of mine.”

As he walked toward Liu Ning, his gaze suddenly landed on Sang Qien and Zheng Dan. He was a bit surprised, saying, “Your highness truly is considerate. You’ve helpedfind two pretty young ladies to serve as companions.”

“You’re not allowed to treat them with disrespect!” Liu Ning suddenly moved and swung with all of her strength.

Eunuch Lu’s body slammed into a pillar. However, Liu Ning coughed out a mouthful of blood, and her face immediately paled.

“Big sister!” Zheng Dan and Sang Qien both cried out.

Liu Ning forced a smile. Before she could even say anything, however, Eunuch Lu got to his feet. He wiped away sblood from the corner of his lips while saying, “Hah, it seems I still ended up underestimating your highness after all. However, if you had continued to bide your tand struck when I was sharing extrbliss with them, you might’ve been able to killin one strike.”

“You’re spouting absolute nonsense!” Liu Ning retorted. After all, the reason she'd invited the two women here was to thank them for saving her life. If something really happened to them here, she would never be able to forgive herself.

“What adorable sisterly bonds.” Eunuch Lu’s expression suddenly bectwisted as he said, “The regent really has amazing luck with women. Why does he always have so many pretty women at his side? But fortunes rise and fall. Not too long ago, I could only watch as he ravaged your body to his heart’s content, while I endured jealousy and grievance all alone. Now, he can also have a taste of what I felt.”

He approached the three women, smiling maliciously.

Sang Qien and Zheng Dan were horrified. Liu Ning’s expression also changed and she quickly said, “If you leave now, I’ll pretend that nothing happened, and I’ll even repeal your arrest order. If you persist with your madness, you’ll definitely meet a tragic end!”

“I know what kinds of consequences there are for my actions. However, compared to living my life as a maggot, I think it would be much more delightful to have a taste of you three and let the undefeated regent experience the feeling of failure.” Eunuch Lu’s face was full of madness. He knew he would definitely die, but he was willing to give up everything in order to enjoy that momentary sense of achievement. When he thought about how exciting it was, he could no longer hold himself back and threw himself at the three of them.

Just then, however, a translucent golden finger suddenly pressed down from the heavens.

Eunuch Lu’s expression changed. He quickly raised both hands above his head to try and stop the finger. But as soon as he made contact with it, he felt as if he'd been blasted by lightning. A mouthful of blood gushed out of his mouth. His knees could no longer hold on and he fell to his knees, choking out the word, "Re... Regent!”

His voice was full of fear. Even though he had known that Zu An was really strong, he had never expected the distance between them to be this great. He murmured, “Who would’ve thought that in the end, I wouldn’t be able to make you feel what I felt.”

“Even someone like you?” said a voice above them. Then, the finger pressed down.

Just like that, Eunuch Lu’s entire body was crushed into meat paste. Then, he was burned by true fire until nothing remained.
