120: Plague hurt, Soul-Slaying reacts!

The next day.

After Chu Yun finished his imperial court meeting, he brought the two women to his mother's palace for a casual chat.

However, not long after they sat down, Death Knight rushed in, his expression slightly grim: "Sect Master, Plague is back!"

Seeing his expression, Chu Yun immediately asked: "Was it smooth?"

Death Knight shook his head: "Plague is injured, and his Divine Eye was destroyed. He almost didn't make it back."

Upon hearing this, Chu Yun's gaze sharpened, and he abruptly stood up: "What happened?"

"Is there some other change in the Thousand Joy Dynasty?"

Heavenly Demoness, Meng Ruxue, and even Empress Dowager Shi Minyue's conversations were interrupted, and their gazes all turned towards Death Knight.

"Sect Master, I'm not clear on the specifics."

"Famine and War are currently treating his injuries. Sect Master, why don't you personally go and ask about the situation?"

The matter was urgent, so Death Knight didn't ask Plague too many questions and came to report to Chu Yun immediately.

"Mother, let's go take a look first." Chu Yun turned to Shi Minyue and said.

"Go ahead." The Empress Dowager understood the seriousness of the matter and nodded immediately.

"Let's go."

Chu Yun and the two women directly followed Death Knight, leaving the palace.

......

Inside the side hall of the Imperial Palace.

Chu Yun and the others strode in.

They saw Plague Knight sitting on the ground, his aura weak and his face pale, clearly not lightly injured.

War Knight and Famine Knight were on either side, using their Sacred Power to help him refine the Medicinal Pills within his body.

Upon seeing Chu Yun arrive, the two Knights saluted him: "Sect Master."

Plague Knight also slowly opened his eyes at this moment, his voice weak: "Sect Master..."

Chu Yun nodded, walked over, and placed his palm on Plague's back, letting his Sacred Power flow through his entire body to check his injuries.

After a while, Chu Yun slowly withdrew his power.

His face became somewhat grim: "It almost damaged his Origin."

"Plague, what exactly happened?"

"You went to the Thousand Joy Dynasty, how did it come to this?"

Hearing Chu Yun's words, Plague Knight slowly stood up and said: "Sect Master, within the Thousand Joy Dynasty, there is a Saint King Realm Evil Infant expert!"

"The entire Thousand Joy Dynasty is now serving that Evil Infant expert. The Qianle Imperial Family sacrificed all the living beings in more than a dozen cities to him, greatly increasing his cultivation."

"After I entered the Qianle Imperial Palace, I sensed the aura of that Evil Infant. I originally wanted to run immediately, but I was still severely injured by the Evil Infant's power."

"In the end, I had no choice but to detonate the Divine Eye that the Sect Master gave me, creating a large spatial explosion within the imperial city, which allowed me to barely escape."

"Plague has handled this matter incompetently, and I ask the Sect Master for punishment."

At the end of his words, Plague Knight lowered his head, willing to accept punishment.

Upon hearing that there was an Evil Infant in the Thousand Joy Dynasty, and it was even of the Saint King level, Chu Yun's emotions immediately became somewhat excited.

"You can't be blamed for this."

"A Saint King Realm Evil Infant, it's already a blessing that you managed to escape."

"As for that Divine Eye, it was originally a useless item; it's fine if it's gone."

"You can now focus on recuperating. As for the matter of the Thousand Joy Dynasty, this Emperor will find another way; you don't need to worry." Chu Yun said to him.

"Thank you, Sect Master." Plague Knight thanked him.

After Chu Yun gave him a few Medicinal Pills and gave a few instructions, he walked out with the two women.

"A Saint King Realm Evil Infant, with your current strength, you should be able to control it, right?"

As the three walked through the garden, Meng Ruxue subconsciously asked.

The two of them knew Chu Yun's biggest secret.

That was his special ability to control Evil Infants!

"Even if he is at the Peak of the Saint King Realm, this Emperor has enough confidence."

"This can be considered a small surprise."

"I didn't expect such a thing to be hidden within the Thousand Joy Dynasty."

"It seems it's time for this Emperor to make a trip personally." Chu Yun said calmly.

"When do you plan to depart?"

"The two large armies should have already reached the border of the Zhanling Dynasty. If War breaks out, who will you entrust the remaining decisions to when you leave?" Heavenly Demoness then asked.

Chu Yun smiled easily: "Don't you two still have each other?"

"This Emperor believes that entrusting the matters of the Zhanling Dynasty to you two is entirely sufficient."

"Besides, I won't be gone for too long, at most three or four days, and I'll probably be back."

Meng Ruxue pondered for a moment, then said: "The situation with the Zhanling Dynasty, unless there's an unexpected turn of events, the outcome is already set, so there's really no need to worry too much."

"Then how many people do you plan to bring to the Thousand Joy Dynasty?"

Chu Yun calmly replied: "Just let Wan Lei and Nan Xuan come with this Emperor."

"Too many people, and efficiency will be slower instead."

"Protector Nan Xuan... Speaking of which, we two still haven't met this person you bestowed a title upon."

"Why is he so mysterious? Does he have some special relationship with you?" Heavenly Demoness teased Chu Yun, chuckling playfully.

Many people in the Imperial Palace, up until now, only a very small number have met Nan Xuan.

The main reason is that after Nan Xuan was bestowed the title of Protector by Chu Yun, he has been in his own hall, refining his Yin Yang Calabash.

He has expended all his efforts to improve the Sacred Artifact quality of the Yin Yang Calabash!

This has led to him almost never leaving his residence, and even Meng Changzhong, the First Imperial Minister, has only met him once.

As for Meng Ruxue and Heavenly Demoness, they haven't even seen him, only knowing that such a person exists.

"What a thing to say."

"Don't you two know whether this Emperor is straight or not?"

Chu Yun chuckled mischievously while patting each of the two women on their bottoms.

Immediately, Heavenly Demoness lightly punched his arm, her face slightly flushed: "Aren't you afraid of being seen in broad daylight?"

"You have no shame, but we do!"

Meng Ruxue added: "Next time, wear soft armor to cure your habit of being handsy."

Chu Yun laughed fearlessly: "That would be even more stimulating."

"You pervert!!" The two women cursed in unison.

"Hahahaha."

"Alright, alright."

"This Emperor is leaving. These next few days are in your hands."

"All matters, you can handle on my behalf."

Chu Yun laughed loudly, and after giving instructions to the two women, he playfully grabbed their soft, perky bottoms again, then left.

Not long after, Chu Yun, Wan Lei, and Nan Xuan, using Nan Xuan's power, sped through space with their two Saints, rushing to the Thousand Joy Dynasty at the fastest possible speed.

......

Within the forbidden zone of the Imperial Palace of the Zhanling Dynasty.

In a dimly lit valley, the surroundings were silent, yet the Qi of Heaven and Earth was rich, making it an excellent place for secluded cultivation.

Deep within the valley.

Emperor Zhanling Qin Wu paced back and forth anxiously in front of three old men sitting in mid-air.

The cultivation of these three old men was surprisingly consistent with his, all at the Peak of the King Sealing Realm!

Moreover, their accumulation in this realm was far superior to that of Emperor Zhanling Qin Wu.

"Three Old Ancestors, after Gui Ming died, the Great Xia Dynasty has already dispatched troops to attack our Zhanling Dynasty."

"They have Saints leading them! And there are two Saints!!"

"Our army and Cultivators simply cannot resist. In less than an hour, the border completely fell, and now they are heading straight for the imperial city."

"If we cannot stop those two Saints, our Zhanling Dynasty this time, I fear, is in danger!!"

Emperor Zhanling was currently burning with anxiety.

He no longer had the time to consider why the Great Xia Dynasty possessed Saints.

He only knew that if they couldn't find a way to stop those two Saints, then the Great Xia Dynasty's army would directly strike at the Dragon's lair, unstoppable, and kill their way into their Imperial City!
