People in the Imperial Music Bureau: The Storytelling Demon Child Nezha

"However, Stone Village was destroyed, but Liu Shen simply used her supernatural powers to bring them back to a new Stone Village with beautiful mountains and clear waters. Shi Hao wanted to go back to the old Stone Village to see it. It turned out that Stone Village was destroyed, and he was afraid that his father and mother would not be able to find him, so he wanted to leave a mark."

"He flew to Old Stone Village on a Blue-scaled Eagle, only to find it was a scorched wasteland when he arrived."

"Shi Hao made a mark and was about to leave when he suddenly realized that there was still a living being."

"He looked over and found it was a golden monkey, all fluffy. Shi Hao picked it up and named it Maoqiu (Fur Ball)."

"However, just as Shi Hao picked up the fur ball, a girl's voice rang out."

Shi Hao looked over and saw that the girl was wearing a crimson princess dress, which was incredibly elegant.

The girl said: "It is called Zhu Yan, and it is one of the culprits that destroyed the Great Wilderness."

Shi Hao didn't quite believe it because the fur ball was very small. Little did he know that this was just the Zhu Yan's transformation after suffering serious injuries.

"The true Zhu Yan is like a ten-thousand-foot-tall Dharma image."

"The girl demanded that Shi Hao hand over Zhu Yan to her, and even offered to buy it with money, but Shi Hao had no idea what money was, so they exchanged it for animal milk."

"Shi Hao refused to offend the girl. It turns out that the little girl is the little princess of the Fire Kingdom, Huo Ling'er."

"The two fought fiercely. The first meeting between the young boy and girl was quite interesting. Afterwards, Shi Hao and Huo Ling'er made a promise to meet again next time."

"When Shi Hao returned to the village, Zhu Yan, under the protection of the Willow God, discovered that Zhu Yan's divine body was destroyed and could not be restored. He instructed Shi Hao to keep Zhu Yan's identity a secret and to prevent others from coveting him and bringing disaster upon them."

"After some time, Shi Hao (King Zhao) reached the Blood Transformation Realm. Several years later, Shi Hao grew up. As he grew up, he learned about his origins and recalled the memory of having his Supreme Bone removed when he was a child!"

"It turns out that in order to protect himself, he forgot this memory and regressed into an infant. After growing up and his body endured it, he remembered it."

"On this day, Shi Hao wanted to leave the village to find his parents and also to go to the Martial King's Mansion to demand an explanation. He was determined to kill Shi Yi. He wanted to tell the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths that even without the Supreme Bone, he could still roam the world freely."

"To find out if Shi Hao can avenge the loss of his bones, please stay tuned for the next episode."

After saying this, Li Qiye drank the tea directly.

The listeners slowly came to their senses, only to realize that it wasn't enough; Shi Hao had just left the village, preparing to seek revenge on Shi Yi.

That was wonderful, and that's it?

"Mr. Qiye, as usual, could you please say a little more?"

"Exactly, it's too little."

Li Qiye coughed a few times.

"Ahem, that's enough for today."

Just as Li Qiye was about to step down.

Sudden.

"A reward of 500 taels of gold for the first-class seventh room."

The servant's voice rang out.

Everyone was shocked.

First-class room number seven, a tip of five hundred taels of gold!

Huaiqing!

The Eldest Princess!

Li Qiye was also taken aback for a moment.

Then the servant said.

"Mr. Qiye, this distinguished guest would like to hear about the ruthless empress!"

"What kind of woman is this, worthy of being called an empress!"

Chapter Ninety-Six: Second-Rank Celestial Master, Witch God Cult! Sun-Devouring God!

Li Qiye stared at the private room; how could he not know who was inside?

He had just experienced the charm and gentleness of the eldest princess of the Great Feng Dynasty yesterday.

The audience members below the stage were puzzled, but they were still happy to hear a story.

They gazed at Li Qiye and said.

“Mr. Qiye, since the Princess, uh, has a distinguished guest who is willing to spend a fortune, why don’t you tell us about it?”

"Yes, five hundred taels of gold, that's incredible."

"Absolutely, absolutely, this needs to be discussed, the ruthless Empress."

"The goddess Liu is peerless in beauty and her fame resounds throughout the three thousand states. The only woman who can compare to her is the Empress. I am truly curious."

Li Qiye said upon hearing this.

"Then let me tell you about this ruthless empress."

Huaiqing couldn't help but feel refreshed.

The nine-tailed celestial fox was also very curious.

Everyone listened attentively.

Li Qiye's voice rang out.

"The Ruthless Empress, true to her name, is the most unfathomable woman in history; her ruthlessness has shaken the ages."

"She wants to start from the Ancient Desolate Era, which is a million years after Shi Hao ended the Chaotic Era."

"In the ancient era, there was a little girl who was unable to cultivate due to her constitution. However, the girl did not feel anything. She had an older brother who possessed a rare Great Dao Saint Body, which was comparable to the Supreme Bone and Double Pupils."

767

"As a result, the ruthless empress's brother was targeted by the Feathered Divine Dynasty, which was then in power. The Feathered Divine Dynasty took the ruthless empress's brother away, and the ruthless empress never saw her brother again."

"When she found out again, it was already news of her brother's death."

"In order to seek revenge, the ruthless empress, despite her mortal body, created the Devouring Heaven Demon Art. By devouring various special physiques and origins, she continuously grew stronger and eventually became an empress, known as the Devouring Heaven Emperor."

"After attaining enlightenment, she wiped out the Feathered Divine Dynasty with a single blow, and then swept away the Heavenly Severance Forbidden Zone with a single sword. She became a generation of Immortal Emperor in Kunlun and shattered the Immortal Cauldron. She did not seek immortality, but only to wait for her brother's return in the mortal world."

"And so she waited for a million years."

"Millions of years later, she found a flower that was very similar to her brother. She used her power as an Immortal Emperor to pave the way for her brother, crossing the long river of eternity, and also helped Shi Hao to block the Immortal King from the alien realm."

"Her story is too amazing to tell, so I'll stop here. The ruthless empress was indeed ruthless and decisive in her pursuit of revenge."

Li Qiye spoke slowly, his gaze fixed on Huaiqing in the side room.

He had an unspoken meaning.

Huaiqing also seemed to be motivated.

Decisive!

Her phoenix eyes flashed with decisiveness, but some preparation was needed beforehand.

After finishing his speech, Li Qiye prepared to step down from the stage.

And suddenly!

"call!"

A strange aura suddenly erupted, and then, the guests at the lounge all suddenly became dazed.

Those below the fourth rank were all dizzy, their consciousness seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist, and they were all in a state of chaos, their faces full of shock and confusion.

"Not good!" Wei Yuan's expression hardened, and his eyes swept around like lightning, trying to find the source of this strange aura.

Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou also quickly drew their weapons, protecting the stands where Li Qiye was behind them, and vigilantly watching every move around them.

Just as everyone was at a loss, a dark figure darted out from the shadows of the room like a ghost and rushed straight at Li Qiye.

The man was completely wrapped in a black cloak, with a ferocious mask covering his face, revealing only a pair of eyes that gleamed with a cold light, and holding an extremely sharp dagger in his hand.

The dagger gleamed with a ghostly blue light, clearly indicating that it was coated with a potent poison.

He was incredibly fast, creating a whooshing sound as he moved like a black lightning bolt. In the blink of an eye, he was in front of Li Qiye, and without hesitation, he thrust his dagger towards Li Qiye's throat.

This sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard. Huaiqing exclaimed in surprise and instinctively stood up, wanting to rush over to help, but the distance was too far and it was too late.

Li Miaozhen and Chu Yuanzhen also looked alarmed. Although they wanted to help, they were at a loss as to what to do in the chaotic situation.

However, Li Qiye remained completely unafraid in the face of this fierce attack.

His lips curled slightly upward, revealing a confident smile, his eyes showing no sign of panic.

Just as the dagger was about to touch his throat, he calmly extended his right hand, gently bringing his index and middle fingers together, and seemingly casually pinched the dagger between them.

"Clang!" A crisp metallic clang rang out, and the incredibly sharp dagger was firmly held between Li Qiye's two fingers, unable to advance even an inch further.

Upon seeing this, the assassin was greatly alarmed. He tried to pull back the dagger, but found that it seemed to be held firmly by a powerful force and could not move at all.

He raised his head and looked into Li Qiye's eyes through the gap in the mask.

In that instant, he seemed to see an endless abyss, and a deep fear welled up from the bottom of his heart.

With a gentle exertion, Li Qiye sent a tremendous force through the assassin's arm, sending him flying backward and crashing heavily into the wall with a dull thud.

Before he could even catch his breath, Li Qiye flashed and appeared in front of him like a phantom.

Li Qiye looked down at him, a cold glint in his eyes, and slowly asked, "Who are you?"

The assassin didn't answer, but just glared fiercely at Li Qiye.

Suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of black blood, and a strange smile appeared on his face.

Immediately afterward, his body began to swell rapidly, and a strong, pungent stench of blood filled the air. Li Qiye knew he was in trouble and quickly leaped backward.

"Boom!" The assassin's body exploded instantly, turning into a cloud of blood mist that emitted a pungent odor, as if it contained a deadly poison.

People around covered their mouths and noses and retreated in fear.

As the blood mist gradually dissipated, everyone discovered that the assassin had vanished into thin air, leaving only bloodstains and tattered clothes on the ground.

At this moment, Princess Huaiqing and the others finally arrived at Li Qiye's side.

Huaiqing looked at Li Qiye with concern and asked anxiously, "Mr. Qiye, are you alright?"

Li Qiye shook his head, indicating that he was fine.

A flash of anger crossed Huaiqing's eyes. She turned around and sternly ordered the guards behind her, "Immediately seal off the Jiaofangsi (Imperial Music Bureau) and conduct a full search. Find the mastermind behind this! I want to see who is so audacious as to attempt to assassinate Mr. Qiye right under my nose!"

At this moment, a faint yet somewhat mocking voice suddenly rang out above the Jiaofangsi (Imperial Music Bureau).

"Hahahaha, Princess Huaiqing, the heavens of your Great Feng Dynasty are about to change! Li Qiye, today is just a small warning!"

The sound echoed, startling everyone. They all looked up at the sky, trying to find the source of the sound.

Huaiqing's face instantly turned ashen, her fists clenched tightly, her eyes filled with anger and determination.

"The Witch God Cult! What a Witch God Cult! How dare you be so arrogant! I will investigate this matter thoroughly and wipe out this group of scoundrels!"

Chapter Ninety-Seven: A mere second-rank official dares to challenge me?!

As soon as Huaiqing finished speaking, the atmosphere inside and outside the Jiaofangsi (Imperial Music Bureau) suddenly became tense.

The guards acted swiftly, sealing off all exits and beginning to check suspicious individuals one by one.

However, the ethereal voice seemed to come from all directions, making it impossible to pinpoint its exact location.

Li Qiye stood rooted to the spot, his expression still calm. He looked up at the void, a cold glint in his eyes, and slowly said, "The Witch God Cult? It seems you... have a death wish."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a violent tremor came from the roof of the Jiaofangsi (Imperial Music Bureau).

Immediately afterwards, several dark figures descended from the sky, heading straight for Li Qiye.

These shadowy figures were shrouded in black robes, wore ferocious masks, and held various weapons in their hands; they were clearly elite assassins of the Witch God Cult.

"Protect Mr. Qiye!"

Wei Yuan shouted, and Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou immediately stood in front of Li Qiye and fought with the assassins.

However, these assassins were clearly formidable, and although Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou were skilled, they were unable to withstand their attacks for the time being.

As the assassins gradually approached Li Qiye, Huaiqing's expression grew increasingly grave.

Just then, Li Qiye smiled lightly, raised his hand and waved it, and an invisible burst of energy instantly blasted away the assassins who were charging at the front.
