Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 698 Thunder in the Middle of the Night
That night, the Prince's mansion was still brightly lit.

The masters had already gone to rest, and only a few stewards and servants were cleaning up the banquet.

This is a rare opportunity for them.

Especially for the servants, the remaining food was a delicacy to them.

Seeing that it was about time, Chu Danqing set off with Da Bao.

After the banquet, it was time to send Zhang Yaozuo on his way.

Chu Danqing had been thinking about him dying all night; she couldn't wait any longer.

With Da Bao's help, they quickly arrived at the Grand Tutor's Mansion.

"The plan is simple. Da Bao, you go and capture Zhang Yaozuo. Long Xiangluanyi, you two take men and go kill the gods." Chu Danqing didn't intend to fight your way in.

Instead, they plan to stay outside.

As he spoke, the park's tasks were refreshed.

Side Quest: Kill Zhang Yaozuo and destroy the Grand Tutor's Mansion within 30 minutes.

[Trial Difficulty: SS Rank (Hell)]

[Trial Reward: Paradise Points x 30000, Attribute Points +6]

[Trial Failed: Paradise Points -60000, Random Attribute -3]

Chu Danqing looked and found that she had actually completed a side quest.

This means that Zhang Yaozuo is indeed related to his trial mission.

As for what their relationship was, Chu Danqing didn't intend to delve into it; he'd kill them first and deal with the rest later.

"Wait, the plan has changed." Chu Danqing called out to Da Bao and Long Xiangluanyi, who were about to leave.

"We still have to destroy the Grand Tutor's mansion. It seems we're going to make a big fuss about this."

Paradise is making him alert the enemy.

The news of the destruction of the Grand Tutor's Mansion would reach Emperor Zhang and the various aristocratic families within ten minutes at most.

Do they really think Grand Tutor Zhang Yaozuo is some kind of cabbage growing on the roadside?

If Chu Danqing chooses assassination, then the news will definitely have to wait until tomorrow to get it out.

"Let's just charge in," Chu Danqing said, and immediately released the Boundless Sea of ​​Bitterness.

The entire Grand Tutor's mansion was instantly plunged into a sea of ​​suffering.

Although Da Bao and Long Xiang Luan Yi didn't know why Chu Danqing suddenly changed his mind, they still followed Chu Danqing's instructions.

Chu Danqing's actions were a direct provocation, so not only the Grand Tutor's Mansion, but also a group of court deities in the Eastern Capital Prefecture noticed it.

Everyone is rushing here.

At the same time, Chu Danqing placed his hand on Da Wang's chessboard, and five defensive towers—Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise, and Qilin—rose up from the ground.

Da Bao and Long Xiang Luan Yi stormed into the Grand Tutor's mansion.

In just a moment, the whole situation became as chaotic as eight-treasure porridge.

As for Chu Danqing, she took Da Wang to a safe place to stay for the time being.

"Master, why don't you let Da Gu return to the Grand Tutor's mansion in a single blow?" Da Wang asked curiously.

“Zhang Yaozuo is inside,” Chu Danqing explained. “We still need to use him to open treasure chests.”

Chu Danqing wasn't there, so of course she didn't know which deity was the most valuable.

So he chose Zhang Yaozuo as the one who dropped the treasure chest.

Given the other party's status, position, and strength, although the dropped items might be a bit strange, their value would definitely be among the highest.

Chu Danqing was too lazy to gamble and decided to choose a safer option.

"So, once he's caught, shall we use the Sorrowful Return Wind technique again?" Da Wang asked again.

"No, do you really want to see an explosion that badly?" Chu Danqing asked speechlessly.

“Yeah, art is an explosion.” After saying that, Da Wang added, “Actually, I also want to see how powerful it would be if the Five Spirits Defense Tower and the Sorrowful Wind exploded together.”

In addition to being able to self-destruct under human control, defensive towers will explode upon death based on their remaining mana.

The power depends on the magical power; the more magical power, the higher the damage.

Just then, Da Bao returned.

He casually tossed a tired-looking, slightly aged middle-aged man in front of Chu Danqing.

The person who was captured was Zhang Yaozuo. He was still wearing his pajamas, but he looked disheveled and injured.

He was also bound by the bloodline of patricide.

It seems he fought with Da Bao, but lost.

Even so, the opponent did not give up and continued to mobilize divine power in an attempt to break free.

However, the divine power available to be mobilized is becoming increasingly scarce.

"Who are you?" Zhang Yaozuo asked Chu Danqing.

To be honest, he was very confused because he didn't know Chu Danqing at all.

Why would they want to kill me for no reason?

More importantly, where did such a powerful person come from?

He fought with that red-haired monster, and was immediately at a disadvantage.

The more they fought, the greater their disadvantage became, until they were no match for the opponent and were captured alive.

"If I have offended you in any way, please enlighten me," Zhang Yaozuo continued when Chu Danqing did not answer.

When you're under someone's roof, you naturally have to bow your head.

"Offended? No," Chu Danqing said with a smile. "On the contrary, it's me who has offended you, Grand Tutor Zhang." This made Zhang Yaozuo's heart sink; this was the worst possible outcome.

This person is probably an unlucky guy who was caught up in something, and then he came back to take revenge after mastering supernatural powers.

Such things are indeed rare, after all, he usually eliminates problems completely.

However, it is not impossible for it to happen, and if it does happen, the consequences will be extremely serious.

He almost lost his life in the last time he encountered something like this.

This time, however, he might not be as lucky as before.

"I wonder what would it take for you to resolve this grievance?" Zhang Yaozuo said. "As long as you ask, I can do it without any bargaining."

Chu Danqing could sense that Zhang Yaozuo's will to survive was quite tenacious.

"I'm willing to solve it, but I'm afraid you won't, Grand Tutor Zhang." Chu Danqing realized that the other party seemed to have misunderstood the situation.

This made Zhang Yaozuo pause for a moment, and then he said, "Shanfu, did you kill him?"

It wasn't too hard to guess, since there weren't actually that many enemies he couldn't make.

Aside from the hatred of killing one's son, even political enemies can reconcile because of shared interests.

"Yes, I killed him." Chu Danqing did not deny it.

"Do you think I did the right thing by killing him?" Chu Danqing added, "To kill someone is to destroy their spirit."

Zhang Yaozuo naturally knew what Zhang Shanfu had done.

However, he was still his own son, not to mention that what he did was no less than what Zhang Shanfu did.

Zhang Yaozuo remained silent and did not answer Chu Danqing's question.

Chu Danqing didn't force him, but continued, "You used to cause families to be destroyed and people to die. Now you will experience what it feels like to have your family destroyed and people to die."

Zhang Yaozuo did not lose his composure in the face of Chu Danqing's words, but his gaze fell on the Grand Tutor's Mansion not far away.

"I think it's about time," Chu Danqing said, summoning Da Bao back with the Guardian skill and remotely returning the Dragon Soaring Phoenix Emblem to Da Wang's body.

"Given Grand Tutor Zhang's status, he must have seen quite a few fireworks."

"Before you die, I'll treat you to one last big fireworks display."

As Chu Danqing spoke, he pulled out the large bone from Baiyujing, which had already completed the mournful chant of the wind.

I added some inscriptions without charging up the power, otherwise it would easily affect innocent people outside the Grand Tutor's Mansion.

Damage to large bones is no laughing matter.

The Sorrowful Wind flew towards the Grand Tutor's Mansion, while Chu Danqing took the opportunity to retrieve the Boundless Sea of ​​Bitterness as well.

The gains this time were mediocre, amounting to only around 5 health points.

The main problem is that drowning a deity is indeed a troublesome matter.

Furthermore, the Sinking Karmic Ghost is the lowest-tier summon, so it was only thanks to the help of the Dragon Soaring Phoenix and the Heavenly Origin Breaking faction that a few deities were added; otherwise, it's not certain that any would be available.

That's normal. This skill is a field skill, not one that specifically increases health.

Therefore, some external assistance is needed in this regard.

"Watch closely, these fireworks are a rare sight." As soon as Chu Danqing finished speaking, the entire Grand Tutor's mansion was not razed to the ground by the explosion of the Sorrowful Wind and the five defensive towers, but was turned into a deep crater.

Zhang Yaozuo stared intently, as if he wanted to say something, such as insults or anger.

But these words, which came from the bottom of his heart to his lips, turned into five words: "Kill me."

Now that things have come to this, there's absolutely nothing he can do to change the situation.

Even the combined divine power of the Four Kings and Eight Dukes could not possess such terrifying divine power.

As for who this person is, it's no longer important.

"Of course, otherwise why would I capture you?" After Chu Danqing finished speaking, Da Bao ended his life with a single claw.

[Mission Completed, You Gain: Paradise Points x 30000, Attribute Points +6]

A magnificent treasure chest appeared on Zhang Yaozuo's corpse, indeed bearing shimmering patterns.

This merit is not solely his; the contributions of the gods who died earlier also played a part, which is how this quality was accumulated.

"Let's go, let's get back to Prince Hui's residence as soon as possible." Chu Danqing knew that with the matter having escalated so much, many people probably wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

The deities that will arrive later are probably the Four Kings and Eight Dukes.

Now is not the time to break ties with Zhang Chao; we should wait until tomorrow.

"I understand Your Majesty's meaning." After hearing the whole story, Empress Dowager Li was also extremely shocked.

Besides being shocked that Lu Wanyi was still alive, what she feared most was whether she herself would one day suffer the same fate.

Of course, that's for later; right now, protecting yourself is the most important thing.

"Then I'll leave this matter to the Empress Dowager," Emperor Zhang said respectfully. "Make sure it's handled cleanly."

"From now on, the Empress Dowager will remain the Empress Dowager, and I will remain the Emperor. Everything will remain the same."

Upon hearing this, Empress Dowager Li understood that her relationship with Emperor Zhang would henceforth be purely political.

He sighed inwardly, 'No wonder they don't even spare their own mother; how can they possibly repay my kindness in raising them?'

Before this, she really didn't know about Emperor Zhang's situation. After Emperor Zhang was adopted by her, she raised him herself.

I never imagined that I would raise such a monster.

"Your Majesty is absolutely right." Empress Dowager Li knew that she had no way out.

Emperor Zhang was very satisfied and was about to say something more when he suddenly heard a loud explosion.

This immediately changed his expression.

"Your Majesty, please rest early. I will go and see what caused the explosion." With that, Emperor Zhang got up and left.

This is the capital city, right under the emperor's nose. Such a commotion happening in the middle of the night is definitely a major event.
