From the fake emperor to the concubine

Chapter 101: Prison Immortal
"Ok?"

Fayuan subconsciously looked forward, and saw a blood-colored flying insect suddenly appear in front of Zheng Yi. Before he could react, it suddenly shot towards him and almost instantly landed in front of him.

"Duh!"

A dull sound was heard, and the Buddhist beads in his hand suddenly shone brightly, forming a light golden shield that protected him.

"Spirit insect!"

He stared at the flying insect in front of him that was dizzy from being hit, with a look of surprise.

"I didn't expect that there are spirit insects here?"

"Taiyi Yiyi? Zhao Xizheng?"

"What a pity! These mere first-level spirit insects can only cause some trouble to me. If there were more of them..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard another "squeaking" sound.

His eyes changed immediately, and at least a dozen blood-red spirit insects crawled out from Zheng Yi's sleeves and rushed towards him at a rapid speed.

"Squeak..."

"Squeak!"

More than ten blood moon Gu surrounded the source of law and continuously attacked it, occasionally spitting out blood moon blades, which continuously shook the shield that protected him.

"Damn it! First-level spirit insects! Where did he get so many first-level spirit insects!"

"Even if Zhao Xizheng spent all his wealth, he couldn't cultivate so many spiritual insects!"

Fayuan retreated quickly. He was just a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi training and could easily kill one or two first-level spirit insects.

But even he would not be a match for more than ten first-level spirit insects that were surrounding him.

His body flashed, and a demon-subduing pestle appeared in his hand. The sound of chanting began, and a light golden flame immediately emanated from the demon-subduing pestle, forcing back the group of spiritual insects.

But his figure did not leave, but still stayed here.

"I can't leave! Two months ago, I discovered that for some reason, there was a fluctuation of spiritual energy in the capital area, far exceeding that of Tianlong Temple in Lin'an Prefecture!"

"It's a pity that I originally wanted to use Buddhism to enlighten Emperor Zhengyong and let him appoint me as the national teacher. I didn't expect that this person would not even see me. It must be Zhao Xizheng's doing."

"He is about to fall. What's the point of occupying such a good spiritual place in the capital?"

"Give it to me. Maybe I can break through to the late stage of Qi training before the deadline."

As he spoke, Fayuan stared at the scroll floating in the air, gritted his teeth and said, "If you hold on for another stick of incense, Emperor Zhengyong will surely sink into my Thousand Illusions Glazed Scroll!"

"By then, Emperor Zhengyong will be my follower, and the Xiantian realm expert behind him will also be the guardian of my sect."

"Ha ha ha ha……!"

He immediately used all his strength, and the Buddhist beads in his hand shone brightly, blocking more than a dozen Blood Moon Gu outside.

At the same time, he activated the Demon Subduing Pestle in his hand, emitting a large amount of light golden flames, trying to burn the dozen or so Blood Moon Gu to death.

"Squeak..."

"Squeak..."

Just when he was taking great pains to burn the two Blood Moon Gu to death, he suddenly heard a sharp and strange cry in his ears.

"Ok?"

He subconsciously looked up, only to see that from the top of the originally magnificent Baiyujing Palace, a group of spiritual insects that were almost identical to the group of spiritual insects that besieged him actually crawled out.

Blood Moon Gu!

Zheng Yi chose Baiyujing as the place to raise and sacrifice the Blood Moon Gu.

This is also the reason why he seldom leaves Baiyujing.

With the protection of more than one hundred Blood Moon Gu, even a cultivator in the late stage of Qi training would have no chance of returning!
He once asked Cui Xiabing to test the strength of these Blood Moon Gu. Cui Xiabing could only deal with five Blood Moon Gu even with his flying sword.

And now in Baiyujing, there are more than one hundred and twenty Blood Moon Gu!

"Squeak..."

"Squeak, squeak, squeak...!"

Under Fayuan's extremely horrified gaze, more than a hundred blood moon Gu came over his head and enveloped him at once, forming a golden sphere emitting blood-red light.

"what……!"

On Zheng Yi's side, the Yin-Yang Treasure Mirror in his mind just shook slightly, and then dispelled his confusion.

All the illusions that I had experienced before my eyes disappeared.

When he opened his eyes, he was shocked by the scene in front of him, and then he was filled with endless anger.

Jinyiwei!
There were actually more than twenty Jinyiwei guards protecting him in front of him, and a large number of imperial guards were waiting outside the palace.

Many Jinyiwei and imperial guards surrounded a humanoid corpse crawling with bloody bugs, standing with knives in their hands.

"What happened!"

Zheng Yi asked, and the Jinyiwei who had his back to him turned around quickly.

"Your Majesty! I, the Imperial Guard Ding Qiu, greet Your Majesty."

"We were guarding outside the palace, but we heard someone screaming inside the palace, and we rushed in fearing that something had happened to His Majesty."

"Who knew that inside the hall, we only found a large group of red bugs besieging Master Fayuan."

"Legal source!"

Zheng Yi gritted his teeth and then stared at Fayuan who was surrounded by the Blood Moon Gu.

This source of law must be hostile to oneself.

Otherwise, the Blood Moon Gu, which was in tune with his mind, would not attack him for no reason.

There were more than a hundred Blood Moon Gu. The source of magic couldn't even hold out for a dozen breaths before its protective magic shield was directly broken.

Even his own protective magic weapon was destroyed and he was bitten unconscious.

"Except for the Royal Guards, everyone else, please retreat!"

"promise!"

The imperial guards retreated like a tide, and the Jinyiwei stood on both sides, still pointing their embroidered spring swords at Fayuan who was still lying on the ground.

In the darkness, more than a dozen young eunuchs appeared.

Shadow Guard.

"Mr. Chen?"

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I was also dragged into the illusion by the magic weapon in Fayuan's hand. If it weren't for the spiritual insect protecting Your Majesty..."

Chen Liancang's tone was also filled with fear, as well as a hint of anger and murderous intent.

If Zheng Yi died or was injured because of him, he would be uneasy for the rest of his life.

Zheng Yi nodded slightly. The reason why he chose Baiyujing as the meeting place was because there was a Blood Moon Gu guarding it.

This Fayuan has no idea of ​​the seriousness of the matter. He actually dared to attack me in Baiyujing. He is really courting death!
Fortunately, he just wanted to use the illusion to control him. If he wanted to attack him, he would not succeed.

There are always more than ten Blood Moon Gu guarding him.

Even if Zhao Xizheng wanted to kill him, he would have to do it with some effort. Zheng Yi took a deep breath, and with a thought, more than a hundred blood moon Gu flew up and hid in various places in Baiyujing again.

And on the ground, in addition to Fayuan's body, there were seven or eight corpses of Blood Moon Gu that he had killed.

In addition, there is a golden scroll lying quietly on the ground.

"Someone come and check if he is dead!"

"promise!"

Ding Qiu agreed and slowly approached with the Embroidered Spring Knife in hand.

"slow!"

Chen Liancang walked out of the darkness and whispered, "Your Majesty, let this old servant go."

"Mr. Chen..."

"Your Majesty, it is my fault that you are frightened. Please allow me to atone for my sins."

Zheng Yi pondered for a moment and nodded gently, "Okay."

Chen Liancang immediately walked slowly to Fayuan's side and lowered his head to check
He quickly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Fayuan is not dead, he is just seriously injured and unconscious."

“Not dead yet…?”

Zheng Yi murmured, "Jinyiwei retreat."

"promise!"

The Jinyiwei retreated, and Zheng Yi said, "Mr. Chen, lock up Fayuan and see what information we can get from him."

"Don't let him die too easily!"

"promise!"

"Also, summon Concubine Cui."

"Empress Cui? I know..."

Cui Xiabing, who was summoned by Zheng Yi, was full of doubts, but she still followed the old eunuch towards Baiyujing.

"Eunuch Chen, I wonder why His Majesty wants to call me?"

As one of the only two cultivators in the palace, Cui Xiabing knew Chen Liancang's identity.

And Chen Liancang also knew Cui Xiabing's identity.

He whispered, "My Lady, the abbot of Tianlong Temple, Fayuan, intended to harm Your Majesty, but was defeated by Your Majesty's spirit insect and is now trapped in Baiyujing."

"His Majesty summoned you, Your Majesty, perhaps because of this matter."

"Legal source?"

Cui Xiabing asked in surprise: "He is a monk?"

"Yes……"

Chen Liancang said: "This man is a cultivator, but he hides in Buddhism, and uses the Buddhist magic to deceive the common people. Now he has set his sights on Your Majesty. He deserves to die!"

"I just don't know what other secrets this person is hiding. Your Majesty wants to borrow your help."

"I know."

The two of them walked one after the other and soon arrived at Baiyujing.

Strangely, they did not go to the second floor, but under the leadership of Chen Liancang, they pushed open a hidden wall, and a secret passage leading to the underground palace was exposed to Cui Xiabing.

Cui Xiabing's eyes were also a little surprised. It was obvious that it was the first time she knew that there was another underground passage under Baiyujing.

She followed closely behind Chen Liancang and walked around the underground passage for about a cup of tea before she felt that the terrain was somewhat flat.

As Chen Liancang walked, he said, "Your Majesty, this place was originally an underground palace built by previous emperors. Your Majesty personally transformed it into a secret room, and today is the first time it has been used."

Cui Xiabing looked at the surroundings in surprise. It would be more appropriate to call this place an underground prison rather than a crypt.

Various torture instruments were placed in the huge iron-gate rooms, and there were also many buckets with unknown contents.

Some places are even dungeons, which are dark and eerie, with strange figures floating by from time to time.

"Those people are Shadow Guards who grew up here. They are loyal to Your Majesty and will never betray Your Majesty!"

Chen Liancang continued: "My queen, be careful, we will be there soon..."

After turning a corner, Cui Xiabing saw a huge prison in front of him.

Two sturdy iron pillars stood in the cell, with a figure hanging in the air locked by more than ten iron chains.

Under the flickering firelight, Cui Xiabing could see that this man had a shiny bald head.

Is this... the source of the Tianlong Temple's Dharma?

Inside the prison, in addition to several shadow guards, there was another figure.

Zheng Yi.

"Your Majesty, I greet you."

Zheng Yi nodded and said, "My beloved concubine is here~"

He waved his hand, signaling Cui Xiabing to come over, and she came over obediently.

Zheng Yi said self-deprecatingly: "I built this 'Immortal Prison' originally for Huo Lingzi, but I didn't expect that the first person to be imprisoned would be the abbot of Tianlong Temple!"

"If it weren't for the protection of the Blood Moon Gu, I would have become an emperor who is at peace with Buddhism, a puppet of Tianlong Temple or Master Fayuan?"

Cui Xiabing did not speak, but listened quietly.

"My beloved concubine..."

Zheng Yi grabbed Cui Xiabing's hand and whispered, "You know, I was a little scared at that time!"

"I'm not afraid of death, but what will happen to my beloved concubine after I am controlled by the source of law?"

"Fayuan is a cultivator, but he secretly attacked me. What if he discovered the identity of my beloved concubine... I really can't imagine it!"

Hearing Zheng Yi say this, Cui Xiabing felt sweet in her heart.

It seems that the person His Majesty values ​​most is me!
"Your Majesty, don't worry!"

Cui Xiabing's beautiful eyes were filled with tears, and she said in a serious tone: "Your Majesty is the true dragon emperor, how could you be hurt by a sinister villain?"

"Hasn't this Fayuan been executed? And if, if Your Majesty is injured by a villain, I will definitely avenge Your Majesty!"

"I, your humble servant, will also follow Your Majesty!"

"My beloved~!"

Zheng Yi held Cui Xiabing in his arms, taking deep breaths of her body fragrance, but his eyes were somewhat cold.

"In order to find out the true intention of Fayuan and whether there are other forces behind him, I can only rely on my beloved concubine!"

Cui Xiabing said: "Your Majesty, the bodies of cultivators are nourished by spiritual energy, and their physical strength alone is far greater than that of ordinary warriors. Ordinary torture instruments really have no effect on cultivators."

"Your Majesty, what do you want to do? I will obey your Majesty's orders!"
