"Compared with your own life, what you want is not important." Empress Dowager Wuzhi smiled, "It stands to reason that I should be more concerned about my life."
She laughed, but Duanmuhou didn't think it was funny.
Because no matter which aspect you look at, the other party doesn't seem to be worried about his own safety.
His gaze subconsciously turned to the maid by the distant stream.
That maid has a round face and is very young. From a distance, she doesn't seem to be anything special, let alone a grandmaster of the seventh realm.
At this time, she was also looking up, but she didn't seem to know what happened for a while, so she didn't dare to approach.
A maid like this, even if she practiced some kind of secret technique of the Wuzhi royal family, it is obviously impossible to guarantee the safety of this old lady.
So besides this maid, what else is possible
It was impossible for the nearest Wuzhi army to arrive before they took the old woman away.
However, the less this old woman worried about her own life and death, the more it seemed to them that she was waiting for their arrival.
"You knew we were coming?"
Duanmuhou frowned and looked at the old woman, his eyes rolled around.
Those who are familiar with him know that this is Duanmuhou's habit. When he was in the army, his face remained motionless, but his eyes would kill when he rolled his eyes.
It's just that his eyeballs rolled now, but it was because of nervousness and uneasiness.
When the voice of his words sounded in this mysterious valley, he suddenly realized that he was very different from before.
After Minshan Jianzong was severely injured, although he recovered quickly with Zheng Xiu's elixir, the spine is the most important "big dragon" for practitioners. Even if it recovers, there are still some hidden wounds inside, which will hinder future practice. However, this setback affected his state of mind the most.
He and the two phases joined forces to kill Baili Suxue, not to mention two of them were severely injured by Baili Suxue, and they were also left by the other party and killed in the Changling Palace.
Such an experience was a severe blow to his confidence.
Sometimes practitioners rely on a momentum to cultivate upward, and once this momentum is broken, they will begin to hesitate and doubt.
He felt that he was like this now, and his mood even returned to when he was not strong enough in the army many years ago.
If you lose in the battle, you have to find it in the battle. If this big event is successful, maybe you can regain some confidence.
"Zheng Xiu is best at chain counting, and the frontal battle has always been good at the Bashan Sword Field when he was the leader, not her director. When she and the Bashan Sword Field fought the world, she just hid in the back and used sparks to fight against the enemy. Sword surprise attack is a surprise soldier. Just like the Great Chu Dynasty, when everyone's attention is focused on the frontline battle or when they feel that the war has calmed down, it is often when she really makes a move."
The Empress Dowager Wushi looked at the Prince of Qin whose eyes were still rolling slightly, and said with a pleasant expression, "I have a hunch, but I can't guess exactly who she sent. As for why I have a hunch, I always I feel that it is not worth it for someone like her to start such a big war just for one or two things in Zushan and to prepare for the transfer of Chuchu in spring. She has been like The most shrewd businessman will not do business that will make a lot of losses, and she must have some schemes against me, Wuzhi."
"As expected of the leader of Wuzhi, your guess is very accurate." Duanmuhou and the few people around him became more cautious. Duanmuhou took a deep breath, looked at the old woman and said, "Just put aside Regardless of your life or death, can you guess our real intention here?"
"I would like to hear the details." Empress Dowager Wu only replied.
A high-ranking person is just a toddler in front of a higher-ranking person, not to mention that Duanmuhou has lost her momentum after Minshan Jianzong. There are means to deal with these dignitaries.
What she said earlier was enough to make these dignitaries from Changling follow her pace.
"Compared with Donghu's power, there is actually a big gap between Wuzhi's power, and the number of practitioners can't even be compared. The only difference is that the prestige of Donghu's royal family cannot be compared with yours. Donghu's ascetic monks account for a large part of the power. , and in Wuzhi, you are equivalent to a combination of the royal family and ascetic monks. You are regarded as a person under the authority of the gods in Wuzhi, and you are close to the gods. Maybe after you die, you will be named a real god by the Wuzhi people , stay in the history books."
Duanmuhou didn't hesitate either. For him, the best way not to be controlled by the opponent is to act according to his own ideas, so he quickly continued, "But it was previously considered by Wu Zhi to be a divine right The person who belonged to you is your son Wu Bahai, he is a genius in cultivation, and he is a rare general talent, but he died young, so you are in such a position."
"However, we can confirm that your son did not die of illness, but was poisoned to death."
Duanmuhou looked at the old woman's eyebrows and sneered, "If everyone in Wuzhi knows that your son was poisoned to death by your own hands, what will happen?"
However, Empress Dowager Wu's mood did not fluctuate at all. She just shook her head, "It seems that you all moved his body, but your inference was wrong from the beginning. I don't need poison to kill him, and I won't kill him." Leaving such traces. The reason why he died was only because he failed to practice poisonous body relic... Poisonous body relic is a forbidden law in Wuzhi. It has been concealed, and if you reveal it now, it will not have any impact on my rule."
Duanmuhou was shocked.
He and the few people around him glanced at each other, feeling a strong sense of loss and absurdity.
This is the method they rely on the most, because it concerns the stability of the entire Uzbekistan, but this matter is a fallacy from the beginning to the end
Empress Dowager Wu laughed.
She smiled kindly, but there was anger and killing intent in the depths of her eyes.
She knew that the hostess in the Changling Palace thought she had mastered her ulterior secrets and things that could blackmail her, and these Qin people dug up the body of her son who was buried in Xuefeng. out.
So she decided to give these Qin people more torment.
"Besides the fact that your deduction is wrong, Zheng Xiu asked you to come here with another important mission, which should be the Nine-Eyed Dzi Bead." She looked at Duanmuhou and the practitioners beside him with a smile, slowly Said: "Our Nine-Eyed Dzi Bead of Wuzhi's Holy Tradition comes from the outer star field. In addition to gathering the core vitality of that meteor, the law of heaven and earth forms its own line, which contains the principle of spark cultivation. Such One thing has infinite possibilities for her."
Seeing more shock in the eyes of Duanmuhou and others, the old woman who was already full of murderous intentions smiled and the wrinkles on her face became more dense: "It's just that there is a secret that is only passed down from generation to generation by the real ruler of the throne. Even the closest people around me don't know that apart from the Nine-Eyed Dzi Bead, I, Wushi, also have a thing called the Thunder Array."
