Chapter 1666
This goddess was one of the subordinate gods of Miaozhan Heaven and also had a statue in the Miaozhan Heavenly Temple, ranked beside Miaozhan Heaven; at the same time, she also had her own shrine in Tianshui City, with flourishing incense and many believers. Most of the Yao people present had been to the Goddess Feng He shrine to offer incense and pray, and at this moment, they recognized her at a glance, all shocked beyond words.
Even Tu Han and Shan Zezhong were stunned on the spot, unable to believe it.
Goddess Feng He has manifested?
Bai Tan's actions actually received the Goddess's support?
As this person moved, he scanned the whole scene with majesty, his voice as loud as a bell: "You ignorant people, still dare to resist?"
Shan Zezhong couldn't help but shout: "Wait, could it be an illu..."
Before he could finish speaking, the guard on the city wall glared at him.
With just one glance, he felt trembling in his heart and lost his voice in his throat; he hadn't even finished saying the word "illusion."
Such powerful pressure.
Shan Zezhong had also witnessed the manifestation of heavenly gods twice in Tianshui City, and it was indeed this kind of feeling.
For a moment, silence fell above and below the city, and even the army attacking the city stopped. There were also seven or eight hundred people facing Feng He, kneeling and bowing, completely ignoring that this was still a battlefield.
Every time a heavenly god manifested, they knelt and bowed like this; how could today be an exception?
The two people controlled by the god ignored others' gazes and jumped directly off the palace wall—the wall was nearly five zhang high, and an ordinary person jumping down would at least break a leg, but they were unharmed—and reached out to open the lock.
This golden light lock on the south gate of the Yao palace was a treasure; if it wasn't opened with a matching key, and one relied solely on external force, the lock and the gate would grow together, and it couldn't be pried open.
The soldiers guarding the gate stepped forward and stretched out their arms, still wanting to intercept, but were bitten on the finger by a poisonous snake on the flower basket, screaming in pain: "Ouch!"
His wound didn't bleed, but yellow foam bubbled out.
Right before everyone's eyes, the soldier's finger, joints, and palm quickly turned into yellow water.
If his companion hadn't been decisive and chopped off his arm, the whole person would probably have turned into a pool of yellow water within fifty breaths.
Turning the virtual into reality, this is divine art! No one dared to intercept anymore; the two opened the golden light lock and pushed open the palace city gate with all their might.
The palace gate slowly opened, and directly in front of Bai Tan was another smooth path! The guard controlled by the god pointed toward the Frost Immortal Hall and only said two words:
"Go."
Bai Tan cupped his hands in salute and said solemnly: "Many thanks, Goddess Feng He!"
Afterward, the two fell backward toward the sky, and the flower basket phantom behind them also disappeared.
Everyone passed by them and saw that they had fallen into a coma, unconscious.
This is the god's "Divine Control Technique."
Unlike the proper "Divine Descent," the Divine Control Technique is just the god casting a wisp of thought, temporarily taking away the control of the devout believer's body; it has a short duration and low efficiency, and its power and ability cannot be compared with Divine Descent.
But a body suitable for Divine Descent cannot be found just anywhere; the requirements for using the Divine Control Technique are lower, as long as it is a devout believer of the heavenly god and the body is strong, so it is a more economical and applicable method.
The only drawback is that the aftereffects of the Divine Control Technique are still too strong for ordinary people.
Even if it is just a wisp of the heavenly god's thought, it is difficult for mortals to bear.
Bai Tan's spirit was greatly boosted; after leading the army through the palace gate, he headed straight for the Frost Immortal Hall.
Tianshui City was full of believers in heavenly gods, and the inside of the palace would be no exception. These few devout believers of Goddess Feng He on the city wall were all arranged in advance by Bai Hengbo according to Qingyang's deployment, in case of emergency.
Seeing that even Goddess Feng He had personally manifested to support him, the City Patrol troops and Imperial Guards under his command were even more confident and no longer wavered.
The gods publicly supported General Bai; what reason did they have not to be convinced?
General Bai was indeed a great loyal minister who set things right; fortunately, they hadn't been bewitched by Zheng Da's demonic words! Even Zheng Da's subordinates were stunned, standing on the palace wall in a daze, and didn't stop Bai Tan from rushing through the palace gate.
Many people died in front of the palace gate, most of them being the Imperial Guards who attacked the gate in the front row. The guards on the city wall calmed down, and seeing their colleagues from yesterday shot dead by themselves, they were all terrified.
In fact, the three hundred Imperial Guards that Bai Tan had previously incorporated into the team had already suffered over a hundred casualties as cannon fodder for the siege.
Seeing Bai Tan lead the army to charge into the palace city, Shan Zezhong scratched the back of his head and asked Tu Han: "What do we do?"
Tu Han also felt his brain itching a bit, but he was still a decisive person; after a little thought, he said: "Chase! There will be a big battle in a while!"
He had indeed received the King of Yao's handwritten order and talisman, and he also knew that Bai Tan's rebellion was a certainty, beyond doubt.
But Goddess Feng He had manifested at this time to help Bai Tan open the palace gate! Could it be that Bai Tan's rebellion had received the approval of the heavenly gods?
Goddess Feng He was a subordinate god of Miaozhan Heaven and shouldn't act on her own.
That is to say... the King had been abandoned by the Miaozhan Heavenly God? No, no, thinking about it is terrifying!
Tu Han was about to order his subordinates to go up the wall and ring the bell, but he saw the palace city gate closing rapidly.
How could Bai Tan let the enemy follow him?
"Damn it, we'll switch to the west gate to enter the palace, quick!"
Before two quarter-hours had passed, Qingyang walked to the Fourth Prince's side and started chatting with him.
Zhao Song first sent palace guards back to scout, and seeing her standing right next to the Fourth Prince, he became a bit hesitant.
Swords and spears have no eyes; if a fight broke out, what if Qingyang used the King's most beloved Fourth Prince as a human shield?
Before long, Qiu Long came out and happened to hear Qingyang smiling at Prince Rui: "You are naturally intelligent, and you will be like a fish in water in Lingxu City, no worse than your brother."
Prince Rui nodded: "I yearn for it."
The Yao Nation always sent a prince to Lingxu City to study. After the eldest son died in the Elixir of Immortality case, the King of Yao sent another son to Lingxu City the following year, but this time he learned to be smart and didn't appoint a crown prince.
Qiu Long understood Qingyang's meaning: the Fourth Prince would also go to Lingxu City one day.
This old witch really had ill intentions.
All the ministers were waiting to re-enter the Frost Immortal Hall, but Qiu Long walked over and said to Qingyang: "The King invites the Regent and the Beijia envoy to enter and discuss."
This was a private audience.
Qingyang looked around at the ministers; how could she be willing to enter the opponent's trap: "Your Highness, Lord You, please!"
The black ladybug she had sent out to track Bai Hengbo had foolishly died in the Jade Spring Palace. Therefore, she immediately went to chat with the Fourth Prince, intentionally or unintentionally using him as a hostage to delay some time.
Qingyang only knew that something was hidden in the white mist, but she couldn't see the attack method at all. The Green Guards she brought with her were outstanding in strength, movement, speed, and reaction; one could at least take on ten of the Yao palace guards on the opposite side. To say they were defeated and killed by the Yao guards in the white mist within a few breaths, Qingyang simply didn't believe it!
There was something extraordinary in the thick fog. Before the black ladybug died, it felt a very powerful demonic aura.
No wonder the old King of Yao refused to leave the Jade Spring Palace; when his conflict with Qingyang became increasingly sharp, he even moved back to the Frost Immortal Hall.
It seems there really was some mystery in the Jade Spring Palace.
