Chapter 228 (1/2)

An Zeng didn't leave the Martial Arts Courtyard for two days. Although there were fewer people in the academy now, Huo Tang and Chang Huan still needed someone to take care of them. Even if there was only one person that came to register, they had to accept it according to the rules.

Qu Liuxi didn't leave either, she had been treating Chang Huan and Huotang.

Both were badly hurt, especially by Chang Huan.

If it wasn't for Chang Huan blocking off the 19 Devils for him, he might have died already.

The strength of the Nineteen Devils could clearly be seen. Even though An Zaihai wasn't clear on the true cultivation realms of these three gentlemen, since they could become guardians of the library, the strength of Huo Tang Tang and Song Qiao should at least be in the state of Prison Desire.

And Chang Huan, was perhaps a little stronger than Hutang and Song Qiao.

Even the three strong warriors of the Realm of Detention were unable to stop the Nineteen Devils.

Therefore, An Zaiyue speculated that even if the Nineteen Fiends were severely injured after their battle with the Qian Yuan elders and were sealed by the formation array for over a hundred years, they still possessed strength that surpa.s.sed the Small Perfection Realm.

Devil?

An Xuan was lost in her thoughts as she sat by the window. What exactly was a demon?

Was it a real demon, or a group of people that had entered the devil?

For some reason, An Zhe suddenly wanted to go back and take a look at the Cangman Mountain. He felt that the mummified corpse was a little strange; it must have something to do with the devil.

There was also Chen Shaobai … An Zou wanted to ask Chen Shaobai, but Chen Shaobai avoided talking about it and quickly ran away.

As for Chen Shaobai, it was impossible for An Zaixin to find him. However, he could find him anytime, anywhere, and find him.

Even if An Zeng was squatting in the toilet, Chen Shaobai would silently hand him a piece of paper to wipe his b.u.t.t.

An Chengli's conjecture was correct. Although An Zaiyi had killed a small eunuch from the Embroidery Palace in anger, the Palace had never made any moves.

Empress Dowager Su's current focus should be on the court officials, not even Mu Changyan.

She had used the Gao Family's a.s.sa.s.sination to perfectly force out all her opponents, three birds with one stone.

First, he let Mu Changyan expose his true strength, and he lost everything.

He then forced the court officials to step forward to see how many of them were still in the group.

The third was to lose the spies that Lu Tianghui and Zhao Yanshan had planted by her side.

Perhaps Empress Dowager Su's hatred for her so-called mother country was far greater than her hatred towards the people of Yan Empire.

In her point of view, the people of the Yan Kingdom, be it Mu Changyan or the court officials, were all only her opponents.

Those closest to her mother were her enemies.

How twisted can a person's mind be?

An Zhe had seen enough in the years he had spent in the Great Xians.h.i.+, but very few people like Empress Dowager Su were twisted like this.

The two most terrible psychopaths that Anjou has ever seen, one is the metamorphosis of ignorance, the other the metamorphosis of paranoia.

When An Zhe was a small law enforcer, he had investigated a case of disappearance in a mountain village.

An old woman had disappeared, and the family had not found her for a long time.

It just so happened that An Zhe went to the mountain to track down a bandit, killing him and then returning back to the village, while also helping the villagers solve the case.

The case is still in the mind of the struggle.

The old woman was killed by her daughter-in-law.

It was only a dispute between the two of them at the time, and the daughter-in-law was so angry that she used the rope to tire the old woman to death.

At the time, the old woman's son and wife had gone hunting in the mountains, and they had only returned after seven or eight days.

The daughter-in-law then chopped the old woman into pieces and boiled them in a large pot. She ate them for seven or eight days after her husband and father-in-law left.

Didn't she feel guilty?

The daughter-in-law's reply was so calm that it sent s.h.i.+vers down one's spine.

””What is a crime?””

””I don't know. I knew she made me angry. I couldn't see her and she was more comfortable.””

””Why did you eat her?””

””Because I'm hungry. It takes them seven or eight days to enter the mountain, so there isn't much to eat at home anyway.””

It just so happened that she was dead. If she died, it wouldn't be wasted. It would all be meat.

Not only did I eat it, but my dog also ate it.

I eat meat and dogs bone.

Without her, we might have starved for days. ””

Calm, without a trace of guilt, not even the slightest ripple of emotion.

This was the perversion of ignorance.

As for Empress Dowager Su, she was a pervert who was paranoid.

She was terrifyingly paranoid when she was young, terrifyingly selfish.

What she wanted could only be obtained by herself, even if it was someone else's.

She saw her siblings, who shared her parents love, as enemies.

In the end, Zhao w.a.n.g and the queen married her far away from the Yan Kingdom, and Zhao w.a.n.g became her biggest enemy in the future.

This grudge made Empress Dowager Su want nothing more than to destroy Zhao and destroy the Su Clan's foundation as soon as possible.

These two types of people were equally terrifying.

The former had no purpose at all at the time of the crime, so there was no basis for evil.

An Zhe also remembered that there was a similar case in the ancient village in the southern border region of the Great Xi.

At that time, An Zhe went to collect some ancient cave clan techniques, and those were some strange methods used to train corpses. Until the end, An Zhe still didn't have any harvests, because those were the cave clan's secret techniques.

However, in the village of the Dong Clan, An Zhe heard about this … There was a scholar from Da Xi who came to the ancient village when he was young, and lived for forty years because he loved the scenery here.

He had a Cave boy with him, and they became good friends.

A scholar in his sixties or seventies, thinking that he would be invincible in the future, would eventually come to his senses. Therefore, he said goodbye to his friend, saying that he had to go home no matter what.

His friend cooked dinner at home and invited him to dinner.

After drinking, the caveman said, ””I've been friends with you for so many years, and you're about to leave. I want to leave you something as a memento.””

The scholar smiled and said, ””We are best friends. No matter what you want, I will give it to you as long as I have it.””
