Chapter 1378

And those guards, who tried to stop him,

were simply no match at all, and were routed in an instant.

Within a short span of time,

the vast Black Water Imperial Palace had actually become a field of ruins.

Yet Ximen Wudi did not pause.

He continued walking forward.

He was searching for the Jin Wu Holy Maiden, preparing to ask her about the matters concerning the Black Water Dynasty and the Heishuisheng Sect.

When he arrived before the palace door where the Black Water Holy Maiden resided,

"Bang! Bang!"

Cao Zhengchun directly kicked the room door open.

"Who is it!"

The voice rang out, causing a look of astonishment to appear on the face of the Jin Wu Holy Maiden inside the room.

She did not understand who dared to come disturb her.

Only, the next moment, when she raised her head and saw Ximen Wudi,

her pupils involuntarily contracted.

"Your Majesty, how have you come!"

At this moment, the Jin Wu Holy Maiden said somewhat anxiously.

Because she felt the majesty emanating from Ximen Wudi.

"Haha, may I not come!

I heard you have a scheme.

Speak!"

The voice rang out, and the Jin Wu Holy Maiden did not dare to delay.

"Yes, Your Majesty.

This concubine does indeed have a scheme!"

As she spoke, she cast her gaze upon Cao Zhengchun, who was at Ximen Wudi's side.

Then, she began to speak.

"Your Majesty, according to what I know, the people of this Black Water Imperial Court are most fond of using poisons to temper their bodies, making their flesh as formidable as magical treasures.

If we could lay down a deadly poison upon them,

it would surely succeed!"

A cold, piercing intent seeped through her voice.

Clearly, she too was quite wary of this Black Water Imperial Court.

"Good, we shall follow your counsel.

Cao Zhengchun, you shall personally oversee this matter!"

Ximen Wudi spoke.

After that, he walked straight into the great hall.

The Jin Wu Holy Maiden followed closely behind, not daring to slacken in the slightest.

She felt that her decision this time would alter her fate.

After Ximen Wudi sat down,

the Jin Wu Holy Maiden stood reverently behind him.

"Your Majesty, these are the poisons I gathered from within the Black Water Imperial City.

They are all specially refined.

Even a being at the ninth level of an Ancestor Hongmeng Saint would find it hard to endure if tainted by them!

Please use them without hesitation!"

After her voice fell, she knelt down upon the ground.

And at this moment, the corner of Ximen Wudi's mouth curved into a smile.

He said slowly,

"Good, very good!"

Once his words fell, he reached out and took the poison pill into his hand.

Then, he began to consume it.

"Hoo!"

After the pill entered his mouth, a searing pain coursed through him.

It caused Ximen Wudi to involuntarily let out a groan.

This poison was extremely domineering; even Ximen Wudi found it somewhat unbearable.

However, upon feeling his skin gradually return to normal,

he grew all the more firm in his choice.

And at this moment, the Jin Wu Holy Maiden could not help but heave a sigh of relief.

Although Ximen Wudi's expression was one of great agony,

he had ultimately endured it, which was enough to prove she was right.

And just at this moment,

"Roar!"

Roaring sounds rang out one after another.

A squad of soldiers charged into the palace.

The one at their head was the Black Stone Holy Sovereign.

At this moment he roared furiously.

"Audacious wretch, how dare you break into the Black Water Imperial City to assassinate Your Majesty.

You truly deserve to die!"

The voice rang out, carrying a bone-chilling tone.

And just at this moment.

"Crack!"

Ximen Wudi's figure also rose to his feet at this moment.

An icy-cold light shot from his eyes.

He looked at the other party and said slowly.

"I gave you a chance.

But alas, you did not cherish it.

Today, you shall all die here!"

After the words fell.

Boundless blood mist bloomed from his body.

The dense killing intent nearly condensed into something solid.

Causing everyone present to involuntarily freeze in place.

And the Jin Wu Holy Maiden couldn't help but be momentarily stunned.

This scene was all too familiar to her.

Once, in that Demon Cloud Ridge, she had witnessed a similar sight.

Only now, these people were about to become her prey once again.

However, just as she was getting excited.

That Black Water Holy Sovereign was truly enraged.

He roared at the soldiers beside him.

"Kill!"
