The fake prince was exposed at the beginning, and I took office as emperor on the spot

Chapter 64 Losing his wife and losing his troops

Gu Lianxian bit her lip, feeling confused and not understanding what they were saying at all.

What is “Lotus in the Womb”?
How did this thing get on her?
And why are they all so sure...

Gu Lianxian really couldn't understand the current situation, so she could only clench the sword in her hand, adjust her internal breath, and try to force the poison out of her body.

But soon, she felt that the spiritual energy in her body was flowing a little slowly.

Oh no...it's actually a poison targeting the meridians.

Gu Lianxian's heart suddenly sank.

Although she had retreated as quickly as possible, the opponent was acting with deliberate tactics and she was completely unprepared. Even with the speed of a sixth-grade martial artist, she was still caught off guard.

The poisonous mist seeped into her wounds and took effect very quickly.

However, these wounds were caused by her standing up for justice and fighting with the "candle-cutter ghost" who was chasing these two people.

After all, although Gu Lianxian has little experience in the martial arts world, in terms of combat experience, she was personally trained by Gu Yuye, and ordinary people cannot hurt her.

But now, it has become her death warrant.

Gu Lianxian stepped back little by little, gritting her teeth, and looked at the two people on the ground with a look still full of confusion.

She didn't understand, it was clearly her who saved their lives!

Why could he turn around and attack her without hesitation?
This world is completely different from what she imagined...

Gu Lianxian doesn’t think that everyone in the world is a good person. After all, Gu Fangchen, who has been against her since childhood, is the “big villain” in her eyes.

But she believed that in this world, good should be rewarded and evil should be punished.

As a result, the young princess, who had just started out, fell flat on her face and fell into a huge pit.

——Of course, she didn’t know yet that this pit was dug for her by the “big villain”.

Reality hit her hard.

Gu Lianxian looked around with a cold face, raised her sword and said:

"I don't know what 'Lotus Hidden in the Womb' is, and it's not with me. You've got the wrong person!"

"Lotus hidden in the womb"... should be some kind of natural treasure, but she had never heard of it.

She was sure that she had never gotten this thing, but these people were all so sure of it. Someone must be deliberately releasing false information!
Although Gu Lianxian was unwilling to use Gu Yuye's name to pressure others, at this moment, she was almost isolated and helpless, so she had to scold:
"Since you know I'm Gu Lianxian, you should know what the consequences are for offending the Zhenbei Palace and Jiange. Don't make mistakes!"

The leading cultivator shook his head and sneered:
"As long as we can get the 'Lotus Treasure in the Womb', what does the Zhenbei Palace matter?"

"Five hundred years ago, the Tara cult was able to rise to prominence thanks to the 'Lotus in the Womb'. Five hundred years later, it's only natural that it will be able to replicate this miracle."

This is a holy object that can cleanse one's bones and roots, and it is the dream of many practitioners.

As long as they can get it, they can train batch after batch of masters in a short period of time. Although it is like trying to grab chestnuts from the fire, it is a huge profit.

Who can resist doing such a deal?

This time, Gu Lianxian understood that the "Lotus Treasure in the Womb" was the lost sacred object in the legend of Tara.

But how can they be sure that this thing is in her possession?
Her connection with Tara is not even as good as Gu Fangchen's!
Gu Lianxian didn't understand:
"Why on earth do you feel that the 'Lotus Hidden in the Womb' is in me?"

“I have nothing to do with Tara…”

One of them interrupted:

"How could the news from the Eye Heavenly Division be false? I think the sacred object must have been stolen by the King of Zhenbei, and that's why they dare not allow you to have any contact with the Tara Cult!"

"You don't need to delay any longer. We have already killed those two secret guards."

"Let's attack together and subdue her. 'Lotus in the Womb' will be ours. It all depends on our ability."

The young princess pursed her lips. She really wanted to delay time and wait for the secret guard to return and report.

As a result, now... the secret guard is also dead.

She suddenly felt a little panic in her heart, swallowed her saliva and comforted herself.

According to what is said in the storybook, at this time, the opponents are just a group of rabble, and internal strife is bound to break out easily, so we can't panic.

With just a little sowing of discord, their alliance will surely crumble...

But...but she can't!
Gu Lianxian felt like crying, but she couldn't. The protagonists in books always saw through the contradictions between their enemies at a glance. But she couldn't even tell which sects these disguised people on the other side came from.

How can we talk about alienation?
Gu Lianxian hesitated for a moment, made up her mind, turned around and ran.

It's true that she is a sixth-grade cultivator, but these people are at least seventh-grade cultivators. Moreover, she was already exhausted after her previous battle with the "Candle-Cut Ghost".

The others were also stunned, and then immediately surrounded them.

Gu Lianxian tried her best, but she could only chop off one person's arm. The sword was already on the man's neck, but she couldn't bring herself to do it!
At this moment, the person behind her slapped her on the back.

Gu Lianxian suddenly felt her vision go dark, and a fishy and sweet taste rose in her throat.

She barely summoned her spiritual power, leaped up, and rushed out of the torn encirclement, running wildly all the way without daring to stop.

But what made her despair was that no matter where she ran, there were people chasing her...

……

"Apart from Cai Yong and I, no one else should know about this!"

When Gu Yuye heard the news from his subordinates, his face became extremely gloomy.

He didn't even tell Gu Yuandao about the fact that Gu Lianxian was the reincarnation of the saint and the "lotus hidden in the womb".

The only thing that can prove this is the vision of golden lotus emerging from the ground when Gu Lianxian was born.

All the servants present at the time had already been secretly dealt with by him.

However, Yan Tiansi got the news from somewhere. Although he did not explicitly say that Gu Lianxian was the "Lotus in the Fetus", he was very sure that it was in Gu Lianxian.

This matter was extremely strange, but Gu Yuye had a clear intuition in his heart.

"This incident must be related to that missing little bastard!"

Gu Yuye's eyes were filled with cold murderous intent, and the anger in his heart was beyond words.

After Gu Lianxian's accident, stopping the carriage was no big deal.

The key point is that the deal he originally wanted to make with Princess Prajna on the Tara side is now in jeopardy.

He called his subordinates and was about to ask Yan Tiansi to find out who provided the information.

But the subordinate brought another bad news.

"The Path of Death... massacre of Liansheng Temple?"

Gu Yuye's expression this time was so ugly that it was as disgusting as if he had eaten a fly.

He had almost had a showdown with Princess Prajna, but the Demon Cult attacked the Tara Cult right after.

Not only does it show that he has no control over his partner, the Demon Cult, but more importantly, it is more like a threat to Princess Prajna.

Doing so will only backfire!

His trip to the White Horse Temple was truly a loss of both his wife and his army...

When Gu Yuye's expression was uncertain, his subordinate said cautiously:

"Your Majesty, His Majesty asks you to come into the palace."

He took a deep breath and looked at the sand table in front of him. There was a red circle placed on it in the border area of Qiu'an Road.

At least……

This biggest plan to stabilize his position is still going smoothly.

……

Gu Fangchen killed a few more Qingman soldiers and successfully arrived at a White Dragon Army camp that was burning with raging flames.

Shouts and cries of killing shook the sky ahead.

Most of the Qingman have come into contact with the Bailong Army. After holding on for a while, the latter fell into chaos and decline due to the lack of command.
