Chapter 210: Repeatedly Jumping Back and Forth

~3 min read 562 words

Inside the Imperial Palace.

Duan Tianya and Guihai Yidao had been killed instantly by Zhu Wushi using the Art of Absorbing Energy.

The two bodies lay on the ground.

In Zhu Wushi's eyes.

There was no pity.

Those who achieve great things do not concern themselves with trifles.

To him, mere foster children were no different from ants.

However, Zhu Wushi was curious about one thing.

That Cheng Shifei did not come was within reason.

He had never felt a strong sense of belonging.

Nor was he deeply brainwashed by the Dragon Protection Villa.

But why had Shangguan Haitang not come?

She, Guihai Yidao, and Duan Tianya were as close as siblings.

The three of them always acted together.

Given such a situation.

Where had she gone?

Just as Zhu Wushi was wondering.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

The sound of clapping rang out.

Ye Yu walked in slowly from outside.

"The Iron-Gall God Marquis is truly ruthless."

"Haitang, now you have seen with your own eyes just how ruthless your foster father is, haven't you?"

Shangguan Haitang, dressed in women's clothing.

Walked over slowly.

Upon seeing the corpses of Guihai Yidao and Duan Tianya.

Her eyes instantly turned red.

She demanded sharply, "They called you Foster Father for decades; how could you bring yourself to do this?"

Zhu Wushi's expression remained unchanged.

He held his right hand across his chest.

He said in a deep voice, "I am the Emperor of the Great Ming."

"All the people under heaven are my subjects."

"However, for those who do not obey, I have no need to keep them."

"Haitang, are you going to rebel against me too?"

Shangguan Haitang closed her eyes in pain.

She slowly stood behind Ye Yu.

Seeing this, Zhu Wushi.

Laughed aloud, "Ye Yu, you are indeed very strong."

"But no matter how strong, there are limits."

"Wait until you have slaughtered the tens of thousands of Imperial Guards before you come to see me!"

After speaking.

Zhu Wushi flicked his large sleeves.

He shouted loudly, "Protect the Emperor!"

"The old servant is here?"

A familiar duck-like voice rang out.

Zhu Wushi's expression changed abruptly.

He looked outside in disbelief.

He saw Cao Zhengchun, the Superintendent of the Eastern Depot, arriving all alone.

The Imperial Guard reinforcements that should have appeared.

Were nowhere to be found.

A thick smile appeared on Cao Zhengchun's face.

He said softly, "Zhu Wushi, you are too thin-fated to bear the title of Emperor."

"So this talk of 'protecting the Emperor'."

"Is simply laughable."

"If you really want someone to protect you."

"Why not let this old servant serve you instead?"

Zhu Wushi stared at Cao Zhengchun for a long time.

He said in a deep voice, "It's fake, everything is fake."

"Ye Yu didn't kill you; he was just acting to deceive me?"

"Zhu Wushi, have you gone mad?"

"Still 'I' and 'I'?"

"This old servant finds it truly unpleasant to hear."

Cao Zhengchun turned his head to look at Ye Yu.

He said with a smile, "Mr. Ye, I trouble you to join me in striking."

"And wipe out Zhu Wushi."

"In the future, I promise you a position in the Great Ming, below one person but above ten thousand."

"How about it?"

Hearing these words.

Zhu Wushi's eyes widened suddenly.

He also immediately cast his gaze toward Ye Yu. ===== CHAPTER 211 =====
