Chapter 220 (1/2)
The affairs of Empyrean Terminus Palace would change the future of the Great Yan Dynasty.
What happened in the Gao Family casino would change the future of the Great Yan River.
When Skinny Du and his men began their siege on the east side of the city, the attack on the west side of the city also blew the horn.
Compared to how thin and weak Du Xiangyang and the other two were, carrying hundreds of tough men, s.n.a.t.c.hing away the territories as if they were rotten weeds, the scale of the war here was a little bit smaller, but it was more dangerous.
However, when An Zeng seized the fourth casino, he discovered that the Gao Family actually did not resist at all.
Thus, An Zaiyue was keenly aware of the Gao Clan's intentions, so he ordered his men to increase their momentum and then left alone in the direction of Heavenly Temple.
At the same time.
In the brocade palace, Empress Dowager Su's face was flushed red as she looked at the majestic man standing before her.
””Does this person really work?””
she asked the man standing beside her.
The newly promoted head eunuch of the brocade palace, Zhen Dao, smiled obsequiously. ””Empress Dowager, this person is a disciple who has been diligently trained by the martial inst.i.tution. It is said that his cultivation potential is nine stars.””
Furthermore, according to the Martial Arts Academy's internal report, the Martial Arts Academy had sent this person to the third floor to get in touch with that purple-rank cultivation technique.
””If they really did fight, Feng Xiuzhu would not be his match.””
Empress Dowager Su looked once more at the young man standing beside the muscular man, an indecipherable look in her eyes.
””What a pity.””
Empress Dowager Su looked at the two young men, her fingers brus.h.i.+ng across Nie Qing's majestic chest. ””Such a person would be very useful if he stayed by my side.””
Zhen Dao, of course, knew what Empress Dowager Su was planning. He lowered his head and said, ””But if we use it elsewhere, it might be more useful … With the thoughts of the old madam from the Gao Family, I don't think she'll be able to find anything from the Heavenly Temple.””
Even if the empress dowager were to send Lu Tianghui and Zhao Yanshan over, there probably wouldn't be any result.
””But these two... both have a chance.””
Zhen Dao held a cloth bag in his hand. Inside the bag were many thin silver needles.
At this moment, there were at least several tens of silver needles sticking out of Nie Qing and Feng Xiuzhu's bodies.
Empress Dowager Su asked, ””Your method works?””
Zhen Dao smiled, ””Empress Dowager, don't worry. This is a secret technique pa.s.sed down from the ancestors.””
Back in the days when the Great Yan Dynasty was founded, the King of Yan had an army that dared to die.
Not knowing pain, not knowing fear, he only had to rush forward in one breath.
If it hadn't been for the Death Army, the Great Yan Empire might still have been a few years late.
The ancestor of this servant was one of the people who helped the King of Yan create the Dare Army.
””Moreover, it is precisely because of this secret Silver Needle Technique that these soldiers are so powerful that it makes people fear them.””
Empress Dowager Su nodded. ””Since you're so confident, then I'll leave it to you.””
But you know very well what happens to you if you mess up my business. ””
Zhen Dao quickly said: ””Empress Dowager, don't worry, even if I had ten thousand guts, I wouldn't dare to lie to you.
Only my servant's family knows how to use this secret technique. As long as the secret technique succeeds, these people will be controlled by my servant until they die.
If a servant puts a needle in their body, the needle will remain in their acupuncture points.
At the same time, he used the Gu worm technique to control their thoughts, so that they would become real puppets. ””
Empress Dowager Su sighed. ””If I'd promoted you earlier, there wouldn't have been so much trouble.””
Zhen Dao said: ””Actually, this servant had already told Li Changlu, but if Li Changlu wanted to, he wouldn't tell the empress dowager.””
Because if the Empress Mother were to use a servant, he would lose his favour.
But I have no means of seeing you, Majesty, so I can only let Li Changlu report to you.
So now, your servant will be able to serve you.
If he had given the king the needle earlier, he wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble.
””Fortunately, it's not too late …””
Empress Dowager Su reluctantly glanced at Nie Qing. ””He's really a good man. It'd be a pity if he died.””
However, he still had to put more emphasis on the important matters … The people who had Mu Changyan now could basically be mobilized to move him out.
Fang Daozhong and w.a.n.g Kaitai, who had not shown up earlier, were surrounding and attacking the Gao Family's people while the Gao Family's people were trying to kill Mu Changyan in Empyrean Terminus Palace. This situation was truly chaotic.
””Presumably, Zhuge Liuyun is the only one by Mu Changyan's side now, so this is the best chance.””
Zhen Dao said: ””Your servant will arrange it now.””
Empress Dowager Su waved her hand. ””No … I want to go in person.””
She put on her clothes. ””Let everyone go, kill all the traitors of the Gao Family who dare to a.s.sa.s.sinate the King.””
If you let Feng Xiu bring him back to the Taishang, those bull-nosed people won't suspect him.
Feng Xiuzhi's mission was to steal all the secret techniques of the Taishang Taoist temple so that she could control them in the future.
If Nie Qing were to head over to Heavenly Temple right now and kill a few people, Mu Changyan wouldn't have any doubts about him. Originally, Mu Changyan trusted this Nie Qing.
Therefore, once Nie Qing gets close to Mu Changyan, the following matters will be much easier to deal with. ””
Zhen Dao nodded, ””Your servant obeys.””
He opened a jade bottle and poured out two identical worms. They looked like several cups of ants, but they had eight legs.
He pinched a bug and placed it beside Nie Qing's nose. That bug immediately crawled into Nie Qing's nose through his eyes.
After a short moment, Nie Qing started to tremble violently.
Empress Dowager Su watched from the side, her face pale.
Women always had a resistance to insects, even the most beautiful insects.
””You have to hurry. Nie Qing and Feng Xiuzhi have already disappeared for quite some time already. We can't let those powerful ox noses over at the Supreme Palace become suspicious.””
