Chapter 1958: Chapter 1896: Beyond Cure

Bring Empress Song here?

Everyone present was stunned, not only Commander Zhao but even Lu Shenxing, who had his head down, showed a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with shock. However, he quickly calmed down.

Lu Shenxing suddenly burst into a sinister smile, using all his strength to raise his head and look at Ah Jiu: "Prince Jin really makes me look at him in a new light. He protects even those who have dishonored his mother so well. Such a deep connection is truly moving, hehehe..."

Hearing this, Ah Jiu had yet to react, but Commander Zhao’s expression changed dramatically. Without a word, he fiercely whipped him across the mouth.

The force used was unclear, but it split Lu Shenxing’s mouth open. He spat, blood mixed with teeth pouring out.

"Are you angry out of humiliation, you dog?" Lu Shenxing laughed sinisterly: "That dog emperor is dying, isn’t he? Heh, heaven is still on my side. I’m enforcing justice on its behalf. This immoral and heartless dog emperor should have died long ago."

Commander Zhao’s eyes turned crimson with rage, and he was about to swing the whip again when Ah Jiu stopped him.

"What, trying to buy time or divert attention? Do you think I don’t know you are the one who delivered Empress Song?" Ah Jiu smiled faintly.

Lu Shenxing sneered: "I don’t know what you’re talking about."

"Is that so? Since you ended up in the hands of the Princess Consort and arrived at this dungeon, do you think there’s no reason?" Ah Jiu continued: "Because the Princess Consort recognized you. You know it in your heart, don’t you? Otherwise, why would you talk about enforcing justice on behalf of heaven?"

Lu Shenxing stared hard at Ah Jiu: "The dog emperor dishonored your mother, yet you still want to save him?"

Ah Jiu lowered his eyelids and said: "I don’t know what Empress Song told you, but all I know is that if you don’t speak, should anything happen to my Imperial Brother, the Empress will have only one outcome—burial with the emperor!"

Lu Shenxing mocked: "Your Imperial Family only bullies women? Forcing innocent people into burial, aren’t you afraid of heaven above?"

"I’ll give you one more chance!" Ah Jiu stopped wasting words with him.

Lu Shenxing’s face remained cold, but inside, he cursed his bad luck, feeling as if fate was against him, as if even heaven wasn’t on his and Huaner’s side.

The plan at Imperial Jue Temple was almost a success, and the emperor was indeed victimized, yet he fell into Wufu’s hands by sheer coincidence.

Is heaven really so partial to the Imperial Family?

Or is it the Dragon Vein that naturally protects them with the true dragon’s spirit?

Ah Jiu stood up.

"It’s useless." Lu Shenxing suddenly spoke, laughing: "Even telling you is pointless."

Ah Jiu turned to look at him.

"The dog emperor’s Gu poison has long been planted. When the first cannon shot sounded at the Imperial Jue Temple’s main hall, the fuse was hidden in the fireworks. Once it exploded, the poisonous smoke would trigger the Gu poison within him instantly." Lu Shenxing laughed grimly: "The worms in the dog emperor’s stomach have crawled out of his five senses, haven’t they?"

Ah Jiu’s face changed several times, and seeing his transformation, Commander Zhao’s heart sank. Could it really be as he said?

"Once the Gu insects crawl out, it proves that the worms inside have matured and there’s no more room. Thousands of worms gnawing at his belly, heh, intestines pierced and stomach rotted, living a life worse than death, beyond the help of medicine—this is the dominance of the Drunken Thousand Gu." Lu Shenxing laughed madly: "It was all my doing, the plan at Imperial Jue Temple, including poisoning him and everything else. You can’t blame me. The dog emperor is inhumane and lacks virtue, condemned by heaven and earth to die childless."

Commander Zhao could no longer bear it and struck him with the palm of his hand.

Poof!

Lu Shenxing spat out a mouthful of hot blood and fainted.
