790 Has The Signal Been Boosted? (1/2)

This voice.…

Madam Ya was stunned a bit, then she shouted delightedly, ”Xu Que!”

The young man Yang Qianyun was stunned, his face full of terror.

Xu Que is back!

Whoosh!

A figure jumped down from above and appeared at the entrance of the bedchamber. Chilly light gushed from his black eyes. An iconic wicked smile appeared on his lips. It was Xu Que!

”It seems the anti-fraud campaign should be continued. I didn't expect a lucky fish that escaped the net would be found in the palace!” Xu Que sneered, glancing at Yang Qianyun sarcastically. His words made Yang Qianyun tremble. He almost fell on the ground.

Everyone knew Xu Que's bad reputation as a big devil. His disappearance for all these years had emboldened a lot of people. However, all their boldness disappeared immediately along with Xu Que's reappearance.

Flop! Yang Qianyun kneeled down and begged, ”My fellow cultivator…Xu, please spare my life! I…I know I was wrong! Royal Highness Wang asked me to do this, and I can't defy his order!”

”What? It is the Royal Highness Wang again!” Xu Que said with a faint smile.

Madam Ya was also surprised by Yang Qianyun's reply, ”What did you say? What did Royal Highness Wang ask you to do?”

Apparently, she knew nothing about this at all. Maybe she also didn't know a lot of people had posed as members of the Exploding Heavens Faction outside the Imperial Palace.

Yang Qianyun didn't dare to conceal anything at this moment. Xu Que was far more horrible than Royal Highness Wang!

He replied, still kneeling on the ground, ”Madam Ya, Royal Highness Wang ordered us to pose as sovereigns of the Exploding Heavens Faction. All of this was planned by him. Please spare my life, Madam Ya!”

”He asked you to pose as sovereigns of the Exploding Heavens Faction?” Madam Ya was shocked. Then, her face darkened and she asked coldly, ”Why…did he do that?”

Yang Qianyun trembled a bit and started to hem and haw as if he didn't dare to reveal the truth.

Xu Que touched his nose and said with a faint smile, ”Interesting! Nowadays people are not afraid of death!”

Yang Qianyun changed his expression instantly and shouted in a hurry, ”Royal Highness Wang is planning treason. He asked me to fool Madam Ya so that he could kidnap Madam Ya as a hostage. In this way, he could protect himself from being….”

”...from being punished by me, right?” Xu Que asked with a smile.

Bang! Yang Qianyun kowtowed to Xu Que immediately, which meant that what Xu Que said was right. Then, he started to beg for mercy from Xu Que and Madam Ya again.

Xu Que said nothing. He pointed his finger at Yang Qianyun slightly. Then, a strand of light gushed from his finger.

Bang!

Along with a dull sound, Yang Qianyun's forehead was penetrated by the light, which killed him instantly.

Madam Ya was scared by this scene. But she said nothing, for she would always support Xu Que no matter what he did. Moreover, Yang Qianyun had crossed a line. Even if he was asked to do this by Royal Highness Wang, his guilt was still unforgivable!

If Xu Que hadn't come back this time, Madam Ya might have really been kidnapped by Royal Highness Wang. At the thought of this, Madam Ya said seriously as she looked at the Imperial Guard, ”Clean this place out. Send people to arrest Royal Highness Wang immediately. If he resists arrest, you can carry out a death sentence on the spot!”

”Yes, Madam!” the Imperial Guard replied and left in a hurry.

At this time, Madam Ya looked at Xu Que apologetically as she said, lowering her head, ”I was too careless.…”

Creak!

Xu Que closed the door and said with a faint smile, ”Since you have made a mistake, you should accept my punishment!” After saying that, he picked Madam Ya up and dashed toward her bed.
