【Lu Yu pointed lightly, and the invisible shackles imposed on Wei Yue vanished instantly, and she regained her freedom.】

【Wei Yue stood blankly.】

【Her eyes still held confusion, not yet recovered from the sudden liberation.】

【Having not moved for too long, her body was a bit numb, her blood flow was not smooth, her muscles and bones were uncomfortable, and it was difficult to support herself.】

【Lu Yu pushed a wave of spiritual energy like a microwave.】

【Wei Yue only felt a warm current enter her body, her body felt numb and crisp, her blood was no longer stagnant, and it flowed smoothly.】

【You found that Lu Yu's use of spiritual energy was becoming more and more proficient.】

【Spiritual energy could already leave the body; don't know what realm he has reached now.】

【And you, at this time, have not yet become a Grandmaster.】

【You stared at Wei Yue and said softly: "Sorry, I'm late."】

【Wei Yue heard this, her emotions intertwined, not knowing how to answer.】

【Her gaze swept across the courtyard, only to see Lu Yu standing quietly, his momentum restrained, also smiling at her.】

【Standing beside him was a middle-aged man.】

【It was exactly her cousin, famous throughout the world, who at this moment had his hands tucked in his sleeves, his expression gentle, a faint smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.】

【Junior Guardian Lu, this cousin she had heard stories about since childhood, seemed different from what she imagined.】

【Actually a person with a steady and gentle demeanor.】

【Completely different from the 'overbearing' big man in the storytelling.】

【Under the gaze of the two, the fear in Wei Yue's heart quietly faded, replaced by an indescribable warmth.】

【She felt as if she had seen her reliable father again.】

【No wonder father often said: "Those two cousins of yours, if they were in the capital, no one in the world would dare to bully you."】

【Wei Yue's eyes could not help but turn red again.】

【There were two other people in the courtyard, 'Nine-Thousand-Year-Old' Chen Sanzhong and Seal-Holder eunuch 'Ma Bao.'】

【Chen Sanzhong, this martial arts Grandmaster, now the personal eunuch of the Empress Dowager and the Western Depot Factory Official, appeared extremely old and haggard.】

【The aura on his body had already weakened, like a remnant candle swaying in the wind, which could be extinguished at any time.】

【He looked at Lu Yu and Wei Yue, a trace of pleading sorrow flowing in his eyes, his voice hoarse and trembling:】

【"Junior Guardian, can I ask you to raise your hand and spare the Empress Dowager once?"】

【"The Empress Dowager is old, and her body is not good."】

【You didn't pay attention.】

【Chen Sanzhong lowered his head helplessly; their plan this time had completely failed, failing without any ability to fight back.】

【Surrounding and killing Lu Chen, originally thought to be a carefully planned dead end, but didn't expect such an accident.】

【His voice revealed deep remorse; the soldiers outside had already surrounded the Western Depot.】

【Such a big change, the capital had no reaction!】

【I'm afraid something unexpected happened in the imperial palace too.】

【"Master, danger."】

【Chen Sanbao thought of various things and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "This Emperor's method of questioning Mount Zhongnan is truly brilliant."】

【Luring the Junior Guardian into the capital, a plan of driving the tiger to swallow the wolf!】

【Inside the Western Depot!】

【The eunuchs who were originally orderly were now in a mess, fleeing in panic, but the heavy troops of the Jin Wuwei had already surged in like a tide.】

【Killing everyone they saw, without mercy, blood flowing everywhere.】

【The courtyard was instantly filled with screams and wails, a scene of chaos and blood.】

【The Grandmaster experts cultivated secretly by the Western Depot also fled far away.】

【Disaster is imminent, each flies away.】

【However, three thousand people had already surrounded the outside, and no Grandmaster could escape; no one could survive.】

【Ma Bao stood there quietly, slowly closing his eyes, sighing in his heart.】

【The Western Depot, this institution that once held great power, has now ended up like this.】

【Wei Yue was frightened by this sudden change, her face pale; she quickly walked to Lu Yu and your side, feeling much more at ease.】

【She listened to the shouting and killing outside, her eyes full of confusion.】

【You and Lu Yu seemed unmoved, just looking at the chaos before you faintly.】

【You walked to Chen Sanzhong and said calmly: "Factory Official Chen, things have come to this, I can only borrow your head."】

【Chen Sanzhong knew he couldn't escape death; he didn't plead for himself, but instead tried to plead for the Empress Dowager.】

【Everything was a foregone conclusion.】

【You just smiled.】

【Lu Yu had already stepped forward, unhesitatingly taking a large head from his body, throwing blood all over the ground.】

【The words on Chen Sanbao's face stopped abruptly】

【That pair of eyes that once were full of majesty were now wide open, dying with eyes wide open.】

【Ma Bao saw this, his lips trembling so much he could hardly speak.】

【He stared blankly at Chen Sanzhong's headless corpse, and the white-haired head in Lu Yu's hand, his whole body seeming to be drained of all strength, falling softly to the ground.】

【Ma Bao's mind began to echo with the various past events of Mount Zhongnan, the miserable state when the late Emperor died, and those eyes full of fear and despair.】

【Those images were like nightmares that could not be shaken off!】

【"Haha, all dead, all dead..." Ma Bao suddenly laughed wildly, his laughter full of despair and madness.】

【He lay on the ground, grabbing his hair desperately, shaking all over, muttering this sentence in his mouth.】

【His eyes had turned red, full of madness, having lost all reason.】

【You looked at Ma Bao before you, his mind in chaos, understanding that he had completely gone mad.】

【Inside the patio of the Western Depot.】

【The Jin Wuwei wearing red-rope bright armor surged in like a tide, well-trained.】

【After rushing in, they didn't immediately launch an attack, but kept their distance, surrounding the four of you.】

【Hint: Congratulations on obtaining two strands of 'Mother Qi of Mediation', check after the ten-year simulation ends.】

At this time!

The light curtain on the cauldron paused slowly, revealing that heart-moving prompt.】

Yu Ke was stunned, then a look of surprise appeared on his face.】

Damn!】

This was simply an unexpected harvest, but also strange?】

He recalled past simulation experiences; when the emperor passed away, he had obtained two strands of precious 'Mother Qi of Mediation', which seemed to be closely linked to the rise and fall of the imperial court.】

Now, obtaining the Mother Qi again, this could not help but make a wave of doubt and speculation arise in his heart.】

Could it be that killing a Grandmaster can get such a generous reward?】

This simulation, the two chess pieces of the Grandmaster in the temple, turned into two strands of Mother Qi, plus the two strands before his eyes.】

A total of four strands of 'Mother Qi of Mediation'!】

The simulation had just begun, and he had already gained such a harvest; it was truly a joy of a good start.】

Ending this time will definitely circulate a great cycle, stepping into the Perfected State.】

Maybe there are other harvests, directly impacting Foundation Establishment.】

Very good, very good!】

Simulation continues.】

【Not long after】

【The leader of the Jin Wuwei walked out slowly from the crowd, his sharp gaze sweeping over the three of you, especially lingering for a moment on the head of Chen Sanbao held tightly in Lu Yu's hand.】

【A trace of joy appeared on his face!】

【On the ground lay a Ma Bao who had already fallen into madness, quickly taken away by the Jin Wuwei on both sides.】

【The leader's gaze was like a torch, examining the three of you, then ordered:】

【"Take these three idle people down; if there is resistance, kill without mercy."】

【As soon as the words fell!】

【A group of well-equipped soldiers with shields and spears surrounded them in an orderly manner, and the atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense.】

PS: There is more tonight, reader master, didn't cut the cliffhanger, just enough word count.
