Chapter 70 Residual Heat
"Insanity!"

The old nanny's hoarse voice was cold and gloomy, while Concubine Ji looked at Li Musheng in the candlelight, suddenly narrowed her eyes and said:
"You are Concubine Jing's son? How did you get into this harem?"

"My Lady, no matter who he is, if he dares to enter your chambers in the dead of night, he will be punished with death. Let me capture him first."

The true energy in the old nanny's body slowly flowed out from her eyes, turning into dark mist. The aura all over her body was eerie and terrifying, and the candlelight in the hall was shaking violently.

Upon hearing this, Concubine Ji's eyes flickered. She looked at Li Musheng and was about to speak.

But at this moment, a copper candle on the pillar wall suddenly disappeared, and pierced through the old woman's chest at an elusive speed. The terrifying force directly knocked her away and nailed her to the huge screen behind her.

For a moment, the dim light in his eyes went out, the mist around him dissipated, and his wrinkled old face showed an expression of disbelief.

Li Musheng said nothing, just snapped his fingers and a life and death talisman fell into the other person's body.

Immediately afterwards, the old lady's blood vessels rushed and her body trembled like a sieve. The uncontrollable pain invaded every part of her body, causing her to whimper in pain.

Upon seeing this, Concubine Ji was horrified and immediately shouted to the eunuchs and maids in the hall:
"What are you waiting for? Kill him!"

However, the dozen or so people around him did not move at all.

The entire hall was eerily silent except for the old nanny's low screams and the occasional sound of wind blowing in from outside the hall.

"you……"

Concubine Ji pointed at everyone, her delicate white face showing shock and anger.

But soon, she realized something was wrong.

Because the eunuchs and maids in the hall still maintained the same posture as when they first entered the hall, without any change, and their eyes were full of fear.

"Did you do it?"

Concubine Ji finally reacted and staggered towards the soft couch behind her.

However, the next moment, when she lowered her eyes, her expression suddenly changed, and a fierce and bloody look appeared in it.

In an instant, Concubine Ji suddenly burst out with blood and energy, turned around and slapped Li Musheng through the air without any warning.

Countless sharp blood shadows rushed out from her body, and when they passed by the copper incense burner in front of the soft couch, the swirling blood light directly crushed it into powder.

Soon, those blood shadows appeared in front of Li Musheng in the blink of an eye, as if they wanted to tear him into pieces.

However, all the blood shadows disappeared a foot away from Li Musheng. Li Musheng shook his head and said:

"You can't kill me."

Seeing this, Concubine Ji was frightened. Without saying a word, she flashed and rolled up the rolling true energy, turning into a blood shadow and fled out of the hall.

The blood shadow was extremely fast and arrived at the back door of the hall in a few breaths. It seemed that he would escape soon.

But at this moment, Li Musheng's voice sounded in her ears:

"You can't escape either."

The next moment, Concubine Ji felt like she was hit by an invisible big hand, and her whole body spun rapidly in the air and flew backwards.

With a loud "bang", it landed heavily on the mirror-smooth floor of the hall, causing the bricks and stones to crack and fly, and the lime to stir.

Her own bones were broken, and her once delicate face had hit the floor tiles head-on, causing her nose to collapse and become a bloody mess.

Li Musheng walked slowly, stopped a few inches in front of Concubine Ji's head, and said:

“Do you feel powerless and helpless?”

Concubine Ji lay on the ground in pain, trying hard to prop up her hands, but the invisible giant hand was too terrifying, and it shattered her dantian and meridians with one palm.

The physical strength she had left was not enough to support her to stand up. Even her teeth were broken and she couldn't even speak.

Seeing this, Li Musheng raised his eyebrows slightly and said:

"If that's the case, then this feeling is correct. You're such a bad person, I naturally can't let you die too easily." After saying that, he snapped his fingers, and another life and death talisman fell into Concubine Ji's body:

"Don't be impatient, the real pain has just begun."

……

An hour later, Li Musheng walked out of Yixin Palace, looked back and shook his head.

They were all a group of people who deserved to die. Their only purpose before death was to allow him to gradually perfect most of the Life and Death Talisman martial arts, which was more or less of a contribution to his remaining energy.

Thinking of this, Li Musheng no longer stayed. His figure disappeared from the spot in an instant and disappeared into the inner courtyard of the imperial palace.

The entire Dali Palace was as peaceful as ever.

Whether Li Musheng came or left, there was no ripple at all, as if nothing had happened that night.

……

The next morning.

A heavy rain yesterday washed away the dust from the entire Shangyang City, and today's weather seems particularly fresh.

The sun rose slowly from the east, and its brilliant rays of light filled the entire imperial capital and the majestic Dali Palace.

Fengyi Palace.

Queen Dali was dressed in a gorgeous purple robe, with a dazzling jade crown on her head, and sat with a noble look on her face on an armchair inlaid with gold and jade.

She glanced majestically at the concubines standing in front of her, then frowned slightly.

Seeing this, one of the concubines, who was wearing a bright red brocade palace dress with a layer of scarlet gauze on the outside, raised her hand to adjust the golden hairpin on her head and deliberately said loudly:

"This Imperial Concubine Ji is really amazing now. She didn't even come to pay her respects to the Queen. I'm afraid that in a few days, she will cause chaos in the harem!"

Upon hearing this, the other concubines all whispered to each other.

"Noble Concubine Ji hasn't been seen since early this morning. Even if she's unwell, she should have sent someone to let her know."

"Don't say that. She now looks at people with her nose up when she walks. I don't know where she got this magic potion that can actually make her look younger. Her skin is better than any of the maids in my palace."

"That's right. She's so glorious now. She stands out among us old concubines. No wonder she's so arrogant and doesn't even take the Queen seriously."

……

"enough!"

The queen shouted in a deep voice, frowned and looked at an old eunuch beside her, with an expression that showed neither anger nor joy:

"Why don't you go to Yixin Palace and see what's going on?"

"If Sister Ji is ill and her brain is confused due to a fever, send the imperial physician to see her immediately. Don't let anything happen to her."

Hearing this, the old eunuch agreed and left quickly.

Half an incense stick later, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew in from outside the hall, revealing the figure of the old eunuch who had gone out and returned.

The queen looked up and glanced at the other party with an unhappy look on her face:

"You are also an old man in the palace, why are you so impulsive and unruly?"

At this moment, the old eunuch's expression was very ugly, and he saluted quickly and said:

"My Queen, something terrible has happened in Yixin Palace!"

After hearing this, the queen frowned slightly, but seemed a little disapproving.

She picked up the teacup on the table beside her, took a sip, and said:
"Don't be anxious. Take your time. This huge palace has always been peaceful. What big thing could possibly happen?"
