Chapter 94 Cross-server communication
Zhao Wen felt all his strength go limp, and he collapsed to the ground, unable to stand up.

He wanted to clarify something else, but how could he do so?
The letter had been delivered to him; it was indeed his parents' handwriting.

There is no way to refute it, no way to deny it. The fact that the Zhao family colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country is undeniable. The fact that His Majesty still treats him with favor is not because of his perceived guilt, but because of his tolerance.

Lin Zhao lifted him up: "No grudge now? Then explain to me how an ordinary person like you managed to set up this dragon energy corpse-nurturing method."

Zhao Wen stared blankly at the wild geese flying away outside the window, and nodded woodenly.

Lin Zhao carried him away and disappeared from the room in the next moment.

The Right Chancellor sat in his chair, watching the two living people disappear before his eyes, without showing the slightest surprise.

He stroked the jade teacup, a faint smile appearing on his face. The person hidden in the shadows asked him, "Young Master, should we take action and finish them off?"

A playful glint appeared on the Right Chancellor's handsome, gentle face: "Why don't you let them try?"

The person below was silent for a moment: "But I have a feeling that the girl is somewhat familiar."

“Uncle Youyuan, you’re just too hesitant, which is why you let the Phoenix Maiden of Destiny and your so-called son go. Sometimes, letting them go to their deaths is the best choice.” The young man took a sip of tea, a hint of contempt for Lin Zhao in his eyes: “A mere Great Perfection of Enlightenment dares to interfere in this matter? Do you think the manpower you lost before wasn’t enough?”

Lin Zhao was unaware of the conversation between the two people behind her, and she led Zhao Wen to her residence.

Su Ye, who was meditating in the room, saw that Lin Zhao had brought another one back and suddenly felt a bit competitive. She quickly pulled out a chair for Lin Zhao to sit on.

Seeing the handsome young man, whose appearance was otherworldly, being so attentive to the ugly woman, Zhao Wen assumed that this was Lin Zhao's male concubine. When Lin Zhao went to reserve another room for Su Ye, he asked, "You're so young, and you have such a beautiful face, what couldn't you do?"

Su Ye gave him a strange look, thinking to himself that he really was here to compete with him for a henchman, and even mocked him for being a sword cultivator without any money.

Faced with his opponent's proactive attack, he was naturally not afraid, so he replied sarcastically, "My family has been doing this since I was a child, do you have a problem with that?"

Zhao Wen was shocked. He knew that there was a Hehuan Sect in the cultivation world, but he did not expect that the cultivation world had become so open that some families with male members would specialize in providing male concubines!
No wonder he's so incredibly handsome; he makes a living off that face!
"Men should consider changing their careers; making money this way is rather unreliable."

Su Ye could tolerate anything else, but when it came to money, thinking about his days of hardship and sleeping in the open, Su Ye slammed his hand on the table and stood up: "What's it to you? You don't even have the talent for this!"

They're just mortals, yet they mock sword cultivators for being broke?!

Zhao Wen looked at Su Ye, whose face was still stunningly beautiful even when she was angry, and fell silent.

Indeed, his talent is not as good as the one in front of him.

Su Ye slammed his palm down, shattering the table into dust. Lin Zhao happened to open the door at that moment and saw the wooden table lying in pieces. His expression froze.

Seeing the sawdust, Su Ye realized she had done something wrong, and her expression stiffened for a moment: "I can explain..."

Lin Zhao reluctantly used his spiritual magic to restore the table to its original state and said, "I've found out something. This person seems to be hiding a lot of secrets. We can ask him about it."

Su Ye was taken aback: "So he's not the second accomplice you found?"

Zhao Wen also realized something was wrong: "So this isn't your male concubine?"

Lin Zhao: "???" Is there something you two need?
Su Ye glared at him angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about! You're the male concubine, your whole family are male concubines!"

Lin Zhao said quietly, "He's the only one left in his family." Su Ye: "..." I deserve to die.

After roughly understanding that the two had just had a cross-server exchange, Lin Zhao sat in his chair and said helplessly, "He is my helper, while this Lord Zhao is the only bloodline of the Zhao family in the Song Dynasty. He knows very well why the dragon aura disappeared."

Under the gazes of the two men, Zhao Wen said, "I did use the dragon energy to nourish the corpses. The nearby corpses and imperial tombs were also dug up by me and the remnants of the Zhao family army. But I don't know why the dragon energy could be drawn from the dragon vein and used by me. I did it on the instructions of a man in black."

It's men in black again. Could it be the Ancestral Dragon Continent again?

Grandma quickly came up with this explanation as well, saying, "If it's them, then it's not surprising."

The Ancestral Dragon Continent is indeed able to utilize its advantages related to dragons in various aspects.

"But isn't dragon energy used to nourish corpses? What benefit does it bring them?" Su couldn't help but ask.

Zhao Wen said, "The royal zombies catalyzed by the dragon energy have all been taken away. As for where they were taken, I don't know. I'm only responsible for raising their corpses and providing manpower and information. I'm not qualified to know anything else."

Su Ye clicked her tongue and asked with disdain, "You don't know anything, yet you dare to do this? I don't know why those people chose you to do the work."

Lin Zhao interrupted him: "Because the malevolent aura on his body can resist the invasion of dragon energy, ordinary people cannot use this aura to nourish their corpses. However, his actions have created karmic debts, and he has at most three years left to live."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Wen felt no resentment, but rather a sense of relief.

"But General Zhao, you have lived all these years not because the evil aura on your body shielded you from the dragon's aura, but because the Song Dynasty still remembers your merits. The achievements you made in protecting the country and the trust the people have placed in you have protected your life all these years."

He used this trust and these achievements to almost completely squander the dynasty's imperial aura.

Zhao Wen lowered his head and remained silent for a long time.

Lin Zhao said, "I won't kill you, nor will I do anything to you. You should use the remaining three years to think carefully about what to do."

Such debts are almost impossible to repay; he has no choice but to die.

Su Ye looked at Lin Zhao for a while and asked, "What do we need to do now?"

“Let’s destroy the zombies in the imperial tomb.” Lin Zhao sighed. “If we let hundreds of zombies of this level appear in the capital, even if you and I join forces, it will take a lot of effort.”

The dragon's energy nourishes corpses; the people of the Ancestral Dragon Continent are truly wicked and have such deep minds.

Before leaving, Lin Zhao tossed a handful of yellow talismans into Zhao Wen's hand.

“I have a feeling that those people won’t let you off easily. If you encounter any trouble, burn these talismans. Firstly, I can sense them, and secondly, you can use them to protect yourself.”

Su Ye glanced at the yellow talismans but didn't say anything. She just felt that Lin Zhao was making a mountain out of a molehill. This person had already told everyone what he knew, so why was he still protecting him?
That's what he thought, and that's what he asked.

Lin Zhao rode his sword and, upon hearing his question, remained silent for a moment before uttering something Zhao Wen couldn't understand.

"Beauties, like famous generals, are not allowed to grow old in this world. He should investigate, and he should also harbor resentment."
