Feeling guilty, he was tricked into attacking by Hai Dafu.

She found an excuse to approach the other person.

With a fierce "Bone-Melting Palm" strike, he aimed at Hai Dafu.

In her view, Hai Dafu was blind and could not be her match.

However, Hai Dafu was prepared for this.

I've always been skilled at locating sounds by ear, all for this moment.

He easily dodged the fake empress dowager's sneak attack.

The two then got into a fight.

However, the fake empress dowager soon found herself at a disadvantage.

Although Hai Dafu was blind, his late-stage Innate Realm cultivation was one level higher than that of the fake Empress Dowager.

Furthermore, his blindness had a much smaller impact on the battle than the fake empress dowager had imagined.

The fake empress dowager became anxious upon seeing this.

Even if she were to fall into a disadvantageous position, or even just remain in a stalemate, it would be detrimental to her.

If the commotion of the two fighting attracts the attention of others.

The mere claim that "the Empress Dowager knew martial arts" is not enough to disprove the argument.

However, the more anxious you are, the more flaws you will make.

He was struck by a "Yin-Yang Grinding" palm strike, causing him to vomit blood and fly backward.

However, Hai Dafu was also coughing violently at this time and was unable to pursue.

His ailing body could no longer withstand such intense combat.

However, unexpectedly...

The fake empress dowager was sent flying in the direction of the artificial hill where Wei Xiaobao was hiding.

Her injuries weren't serious, after all, Hai Dafu was launching the attack while his body was critically ill.

If it were Hai Dafu at his peak, this palm strike could have killed her instantly.

However, the fake empress dowager was still beaten so badly that she couldn't get up for a while.

Lying on the ground, he bumped right into Wei Xiaobao, who was peeking out.

She said with a happy expression:

"Little Gui Zi, Hai Dafu is trying to assassinate me. You must kill him for me. There will be a great reward afterward."

Seeing Hai Dafu's swaying appearance, she guessed that he probably didn't have long to live.

But they feared being dragged down with them to their deaths.

Mao Dongzhu was somewhat relieved that she hadn't poisoned Wei Xiaobao before.

Moreover, the fake empress dowager's identity was not exposed.

As the Empress Dowager, she thought it would be an easy task to command a mere eunuch.

However, Wei Xiaobao hesitated.

The reason, however, was unexpected by the fake empress dowager.

"Is it going to be another bowl of soup?"

For the greedy Wei Xiaobao...

He had previously stolen the "Forty-Two Chapters Sutra," but all he got was a bowl of soup he hadn't even tasted.

Clearly, it was a mixture of disappointment and dissatisfaction.

At the critical moment of life and death, the fake empress dowager had a flash of inspiration and said:

"Don't worry, this time it's to protect me. I'll reward you handsomely with a lot of silver afterwards."

At this moment, Hai Dafu's cough finally subsided.

He said weakly:

"Little Gui, have you forgotten that you were poisoned by me?"

His health condition was worse than he had imagined.

Perhaps only one strike remains.

Their inevitable fate was death.

At this moment, he was using words to stall Wei Xiaobao, gathering his strength for the final blow.

He did not use poison to coerce Wei Xiaobao into killing the Empress Dowager.

The two of them have been together ever since.

The cunning and shrewd Hai Dafu had long seen through Wei Xiaobao's greedy and cowardly nature, and knew he would never dare to lay a hand on the Empress Dowager.

Upon hearing this, Wei Xiaobao burst into a tirade:

"You old turtle, give me the antidote now, or I'll stab you to death first."

As he spoke, he pulled a dagger out of his boot.

His face was fierce but he was actually weak.

Hai Dafu smiled confidently:

"Little Gui, don't worry that I will force you to kill the Empress Dowager. As long as you stand by and do nothing, I will give you the antidote afterward."

Upon hearing this, Wei Xiaobao indeed hesitated.

He looked back and forth between the two, hesitant and undecided.

While both men continued to try to win over Wei Xiaobao, they were also trying to stall for time.

Hai Dafu was accumulating strength for his final blow.

The fake empress dowager also attempted to regain her mobility.

In the end, Hai Dafu was the first to recover.

While Wei Xiaobao was still hesitating, he leaped up.

With a ferocious expression, he struck the fake Empress Dowager with all his might.

The fake empress dowager sensed the approaching death and her face turned terrified.

Her eyes suddenly widened.

Then a towering, black figure appeared before them.

He calmly caught Hai Dafu's desperate attack, much to Hai Dafu's disbelief.

A cold, indifferent voice came from behind the Asura mask.

"You were indeed loyal. Rest in peace."

After saying that, he lightly placed a palm on Hai Dafu's chest.

The light in Hai Dafu's eyes vanished instantly, and he collapsed backward, dying on the spot.

A hint of resentment lingered in his eyes.

When the person turned around.

Wei Xiaobao was startled by the Shura mask and his legs went weak, causing him to collapse to the ground.

one . ...

The fake empress dowager, still catching her breath, exclaimed:

"Wutian!"

Gu Hanyuan casually used a tiger skin to deceive people, saying:

"I have reached an agreement with Emperor Kangxi. I came to see what was going on when I heard the commotion, but I never expected to see such a grand show."

Mao Dongzhu breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

She thought that since Wutian had reached a cooperation agreement with Kangxi and had killed Hai Dafu, he had already made his stance clear, so she was naturally safe.

Mao Dongzhu was increasingly relieved that her identity had not been exposed.

He said, feigning composure:

"Thank you for your help, Lord Wutian. Otherwise, this assassin would have succeeded."

She glanced at Wei Xiaobao beside her.

He said calmly:

"Your Excellency Wutian, what should we do with this little eunuch?"

She was still plotting her own scheme.

She tried to get Gu Hanyuan to help her kill someone to silence them.
