Chapter 173

Ge Nie's expression was solemn.

He returned to Xianyanggong with long strides and arrived inside Ying Zheng's palace.

"Is it the ghost who has broken through to the Grandmaster Realm?!"

Ying Zheng was processing imperial memorials; seeing Ge Nie appear, he raised his head to look at him, a glimmer of doubt flashing in his eyes, and asked.

"Yes, Your Majesty..."

Ge Nie nodded slightly: "It is indeed that ghost who has broken through to the Grandmaster Realm. This person's cultivation now..."

"Is already more terrifying than this subject's!"

"This subject even feels that the ghost's strength can already be compared to this subject's master..."

Upon thinking of Ying Mo's terror and his powerful means, he could not help but have a look of amazement appear on his face.

Feeling inferior.

Ying Zheng listened to Ge Nie's words,

Looked at his reaction at this moment,

Light flickered in his eyes, and the expression on his face was deep.

"This world..."

"Is becoming increasingly confusing..."

"Hidden factions from all sides cannot help but jump out..."

"It seems..."

"Many people think that I cannot live much longer..."

Cold light flickered in Ying Zheng's eyes, and a cold smile appeared at the corners of his mouth; a cold and majestic voice came slowly from his mouth.

A terrifying, gloomy, and majestic aura was emitted from his body.

Enveloping the entire great hall.

The terrifying momentum,

After being felt by a person like Ge Nie,

Made his heart feel a powerful pressure, and his face was slightly stern.

"Your Majesty..."

Ge Nie's gaze flickered, and he spoke again: "This subject has one more matter to report."

"What matter?!"

Ying Zheng's eyes flashed with a glimmer of surprise, and he asked Ge Nie.

"Regarding the matter of Prince Zhao Mingqu..."

Ge Nie's expression became serious: "Just now, I passed by his mansion and discovered that at the gate of his mansion, over a dozen corpses were hanging, all of whom were Zhao Mingqu's family members, and moreover..."

Swish—

Upon hearing Ge Nie's words,

Ying Zheng's pupils suddenly vibrated slightly,

The light in his eyes became as cold as frost and as sharp as a knife.

He narrowed his eyes and stared fixedly at Ge Nie: "Tell me in detail, what exactly happened..."

Ge Nie dared not hesitate.

He hurriedly reported everything he had just seen.

In detail to Ying Zheng, and did so with an objective attitude, without adding any of his own subjective attitude, guesses, or analysis.

Because,

Ge Nie knew,

Ying Zheng only needed to hear a factual report,

As for how to analyze the things in that factual report, that was the business of Ying Zheng, the Emperor himself.

After Ying Zheng listened to Ge Nie's words,

The aura on his body became extremely cold and terrifying,

His entire person seemed to be enveloped in a kind of terrifying air pressure,

Appearing oppressive and terrifying,

Just like the tranquility before a mountain rain,

His entire person was silent there, without speaking.

Ying Zheng was silent there, seemingly thinking about something, and Ge Nie, seeing this situation, did not disturb him at this time.

"Ge Nie..."

After a moment of silence, Ying Zheng raised his head slightly; only to see his eyes at this moment were as calm and waveless as an ancient well of a thousand years, and his voice was even more devoid of any emotional fluctuations: "Go and bring Zhao Mingqu here."

Looking at Ying Zheng's calm reaction at this moment, and listening to that tone devoid of any emotional fluctuations.

Ge Nie's heart felt stern.

Ying Zheng at this moment,

Made him feel incomparably terrified,

As if beneath his calm surface, endless killing intent was hidden.

"This subject will go right away!"

Ge Nie nodded solemnly, bowed to Ying Zheng, and turned to go handle the matter hurriedly.

Ge Nie turned and left,

Ying Zheng continued to sit before the desk,

The expression on his face was as calm as water, and his eyes were even more deep like stars.

His entire person,

Seemed to be very calm...

However,

Only Ying Zheng knew,

How terrifying the killing intent in his heart was at this moment!

"Why?"

"I have not treated you poorly..."

"Mo'er, is your nephew, is your blood relative..."

"You... why are you like this..."

Watching Ge Nie's departing back, a murmur without any emotional fluctuations came from his mouth, with a calm expression on his face.

The voice was soft,

Dissipating with a breeze,

As if it did not contain any emotion...

Inside Zhao Mingqu's Prince's mansion.

After Zhao Mingqu and a group of his subordinates walked out of the secret room.

They discovered that at this time, inside the Prince's mansion, it had already turned into a human purgatory, with corpses everywhere.

"My son!!!!"

Zhao Mingqu saw the corpse of one of his sons at a glance, and instantly his eyes turned red, and he could not help but roar in a low voice.

His son,

Was already dead beyond dead,

Because even his head had been chopped off.

"Ghost..."

"I, Zhao Mingqu, will not share the same sky with you!!!"

"Sooner or later, I will grind your bones to dust!!!"

Anger made Zhao Mingqu's entire body tremble violently; he gritted his teeth and let out a low, crazy roar like a wild beast.

A pair of eyeballs were as red as charcoal fire.
