Chapter 293 Worry
When Shen Ci'an and Su Muyao came out, Wen Nanxi and the others were also waiting at the door.
Yun Qinglan was also there.
They breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Su Muyao emerge unharmed.
"How's it going? Are you okay?"
Su Muyao shook her head and said, "It's nothing. Liu Mengyan died by self-destruction. The prison guards went in to deal with the scene."
"Go home first."
Wen Nanxi and the others also understood that this was not the place to talk.
After returning to the Su residence, Su Muyao relayed Liu Mengyan's words.
Hua Linye said, "Death? I'm not afraid of death. Don't take her words seriously, my wife. She's deliberately using these words to disturb your mind."
Hua Linye felt that even if he were to die, he would have no regrets if he could die for his wife.
Upon hearing these words, Mei Qingchen's holy and clear gaze darkened.
Su Muyao said seriously, "Don't say things like that. Everyone should live well."
She will strive to become stronger and protect everyone.
Xiao Jihan's eyes flashed with anger, "She actually dared to use a secret technique to harm my wife."
If Liu Mengyan's body hadn't been left behind, he would have wanted to tear her to pieces.
Wen Nanxi and Shen Ci'an also looked unpleasant.
Shen Ci'an said, "Her attack was not intended to kill the wife. She could not kill the wife. It was a mental and soul attack. If she succeeded, the wife would be disturbed. If the wife is seriously injured and vulnerable, she is more likely to become delirious."
"The image that flashed through Liu Mengyan's mind most before she died was this orc."
As he spoke, Shen Ci'an drew the appearance of an orc on a piece of paper. It was a handsome man who looked righteous.
"This is a spider beastman from the Nine Netherworlds. But it doesn't quite look like a spider beastman. Is it the real mastermind behind it all?"
In Hua Linye's view, spider beastmen should be a type of beastmen with a sinister aura.
This person really doesn't look like a spider-beastman.
Shen Ci'an said, "According to the soul search, this is indeed a spider beastman from the Nine Netherworlds, and Liu Mengyan's childhood sweetheart."
"When Liu Mengyan was bullied as a child, he was the one who protected her, so the two must have had a good relationship. He was the person Liu Mengyan thought of before she died."
"However, after growing up, Liu Mengyan accidentally displayed a special ability once, but we didn't have time to see what kind of ability it was during the soul search."
"But because of this, Liu Mengyan's people forcibly separated her from this beastman. They used the beastman's life to threaten Liu Mengyan, forcing her to complete a task for the entire clan and even all the spider beastmen."
"Liu Mengyan had no choice but to agree. From then on, the spider beastman secretly trained her and taught her various secret techniques."
"After Liu Mengyan finished her studies, they took her to an altar. Countless spider beastmen sacrificed their lives and blood to activate the altar's formation, sending Liu Mengyan out of the Netherworld."
As he spoke, Shen Ci'an drew a formation on the paper with a pen, "This is the formation."
Hua Linye glanced at it and said, "This formation is extremely strange; we have never seen such a formation before."
Wen Nanxi said intently, "This must be an evil spell."
"It is extremely cruel to trigger powerful forces using the lives and blood of countless orcs."
“Normal beastmen in the beast world wouldn’t use such a formation, and even if they knew about it, they wouldn’t do it.”
Xiao Jihan said coldly, "No wonder the Spider Beastmen were suppressed in the Nine Netherworld. With so many evil arts and secret techniques, they could silently harm many innocent beastmen."
"They're even thinking of leaving the Nine Netherworld; we absolutely cannot let them out."
It is easy to imagine the disaster they would bring to the entire beast world if they were to emerge.
Mei Qingchen's expression turned deep and dark. He pondered, "But why target the wife and her beast husband?" Shen Ci'an explained, "In Liu Mengyan's memories, I saw a strangely dressed spider-clan high priest. The high priest used deduction to learn some information, so he sent Liu Mengyan here to complete the mission."
"She died in the explosion too quickly, so this is all the information I have."
If he had just a little more time, he could have uncovered all the secrets.
Mei Qingchen pondered, "A beastman like her should have many restrictions on her body. When you searched her memories, you must have triggered the restrictions within her body, which is why her body automatically self-destructed."
"She said that the wife is the savior of the world, and the spider orcs want to seize the land resources here and destroy the entire orc world, so they want to deal with the wife."
"There might be some limitations; they can't kill the wife, so they can only influence or disrupt her abilities through other methods."
If that's the case, many things can be explained.
After a pause, Shen Ci'an continued, "And the level 12 ability user we assassinated that day was also a spider-beastman."
"They were also a group of people sent out by the spider beastmen of the Nine Netherworld a long time ago."
"The reason he reached level twelve so quickly is because he has a secret method to devour other people's supernatural power. The so-called earth-type supernatural power is not his own ability, but the ability he obtained by killing an earth-type supernatural power master."
"Because it is the ability to devour, not the ability to cultivate oneself, it is not so easy to use. It looks like the strength is forcibly increased."
"After Liu Mengyan was captured, they received a secret order from the Spider Clan to assassinate all of us that night."
"The assassination mission is secondary; the main objective is to obtain our inherited bloodline power..."
Hearing Shen Ci'an's words, everyone's expressions became increasingly solemn.
……
Over the next two days, important news spread from Beast King City: the Chu King's mansion was besieged, the Chu King was found guilty of using witchcraft to murder the Empress, everyone in the mansion was confined, and the Chu King committed suicide that very night.
The sudden deaths of Consort Xian and Consort Wang in the harem caused widespread fear throughout the entire Beast Emperor City.
Then a rumor began to circulate that Su Zhihong was the Empress's son and Su Muyao was the Empress's granddaughter, which was why the Empress favored Su Muyao so much.
Su Muyao didn't expect this news to get out.
She was somewhat worried about the Empress, so she went to the palace to visit her.
The Empress did not look well, and her face showed signs of fatigue, but her expression softened when she saw Su Muyao.
She told Su Muyao about some recent events. It turned out that the Gu worms were planted on the Empress by the King of Chu in collusion with the spider beastmen, with the help of the noblemen in the harem.
The virtuous and noble husband had a good reputation, but it turned out that he had betrayed the Empress long ago.
Su Muyao also told her grandmother about Liu Mengyan.
The Empress's face turned extremely ugly.
Su Muyao took the Empress's pulse and found that her grandmother was fine. "Grandmother, are you alright?"
The Empress regained her senses and said, "It's alright. Liu Mengyan is dead, and the Spider Beastmen can't cause any trouble for the time being. I've also ordered all regions to keep an eye on the Spider Beastmen, and if any Spider Beastmen are spotted, they will be killed without mercy."
"Also, this witchcraft case involves many people. Don't worry about it. Grandmother will take care of these traitors."
The Empress was heartbroken after learning what the King of Chu had done, but he still had to deal with him, otherwise the Eastern Ningxia Kingdom would be doomed.
"As for your identity, it's a rumor deliberately spread by someone. Your identity will be revealed to the world sooner or later, so there's no need to clarify it."
"It just so happens that Yue Wuhen is in the palace. Why don't you go and talk to him?"
Su Muyao's expression shifted several times before she said, "Grandmother, I don't have anything to say to him, do I?"
The Empress held Su Muyao's hand and said earnestly, "Your marriage was arranged by your grandfather and the High Priest of the Moon Clan. Although there are some things I don't understand, his existence must be very important to you, otherwise your grandfather and the High Priest would not have made the arrangement so early."
"When he left the Su family, it was the High Priest's order and with my consent. It wasn't his own choice. Yue Wuhen must have been carrying a lot of responsibilities. I can see that he's only eighteen years old but he's already very preoccupied. Go and talk to him. He knows more about some things than I do."
"When you become the Empress, you will also need the support of the Moon Clan. Their power is incomparable to that of ordinary families."
