Quick Wear: This Cannon Fodder is Delicate and Expensive

Chapter 323: Don’t Touch the Fox’s Tail (50)

After encountering the female ghost hanging from the bed in the first room, Xiang Ling's face became visibly paler.

As for Shi Qi, in the next few levels, Xiang Ling grabbed him many times and blocked him in front of him, forcing him to face many ghosts and monsters.

Every time she was forced to face the so-called NPC, she could only smile stiffly and wave her hand: ...Hi.

I really can't understand why a fox demon would be so afraid of ghosts!

For a moment I didn't know whether I was torturing the child or torturing myself.

It seemed like a century had passed before Shi Qi finally came out, dragging Xiang Ling with him.

Xiang Ling's pale face looked eerie in the moonlight. He was gasping for breath, his hair on his forehead was already soaked, and he sat on the ground powerlessly.

Shi Qi looked at the panicked person on the ground and felt a little guilty.

She really... didn't expect Xiang Ling to be so afraid of ghosts.

Obviously I am not a human...

"Xiang Ling, are you... okay?" Shi Qi squatted down and gently rubbed the man's head.

Xiang Ling pursed her lips and smiled softly: "It's okay Qiqi, this place... is quite interesting. I like it very much."

But when I came to my senses, I hated myself to death.

What the hell! He was a fox demon, but he was so embarrassed in front of the woman he loved!

It’s too wasteful, how about... just pretend to faint!

The color returned to Xiang Ling's face and he was just about to act weak and obedient when a familiar voice came from not far away in the woods.

He looked very anxious: "Master Shi, are you here? Something terrible has happened!"

"Something bad is going to happen!"

"Su Yi is bringing his troops to force the emperor to abdicate!"

Xiang Ling, who was about to lie down, suddenly changed his expression and stood up quickly. Shi Qi also reacted and looked at the person who came to report the news with a slightly cold face.

"Zhao Chang, what's going on?" Shi Qi asked as he walked.

Zhao Chang patted his chest and said with rapid breathing: "My lord... ahem, Su Yi has brought his soldiers to force the emperor to abdicate. Now he is holding the emperor hostage, saying he wants to use... use..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Chang's eyes flickered as he looked at Xiang Ling.

"Sir, there is still time. Run quickly... Run as far as you can. The situation in the Xuanyuan Dynasty... has really changed." Zhao Chang changed the subject and pulled a carriage to let Shi Qi and the others escape.

But Shi Qi refused directly and sternly: "There is no reason to run away now. If we lose, the people will suffer."

"And what you just said...what to use? Go on." Shi Qi said, and got on the carriage first, their destination being the palace.

Zhao Chang's eyes collided with Xiang Ling's. The sharp gaze frightened him so much that he trembled and said aggrievedly, "Master Shi, to be honest, the Queen Mother passed away. Now the people in the city are going crazy, saying that Master Xianzun is the evil fox demon, and the Emperor... the Emperor was bewitched and controlled, and that you killed the Queen Mother... Su Yi said that only by getting rid of Master Xianzun and you can... we can restore peace to the dynasty."

"They also said... that we need to use your body and the Immortal Master's body as sacrifices to pray for blessings in order to restore peace to the dynasty."

"But sir, this is clearly a slander by that old villain Su Yi. I saw with my own eyes that the Queen Mother was cured by you..." Zhao Chang said, and couldn't help shedding tears.

Shi Qi listened to what Zhao Chang said, seeming to be thinking about something.

They were the only ones who knew that Xiang Ling was a fox demon. It seemed that someone with ulterior motives had leaked it on purpose in order to get rid of Xiang Ling through the mouths of the people.

It’s just that person... probably didn’t expect to give Su Yi and the others an opportunity to take advantage of.

who can that be?

Besides, the military power is in the hands of General Yan, and it is impossible for Su Yi and his men to bring so many soldiers to surround the palace.

Rather than thinking that it was General Yan who had rebelled, she would rather believe that it was Sui and Su Yi who had controlled the soldiers.

It seems that the situation is more complicated and serious than she thought.

"Everything really changed overnight." Shi Qi frowned.

Xiang Ling lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking. Suddenly, he looked up at Shi Qi and said softly, as if nothing had happened: "Don't worry, it will be fine."

You, and the world you want to protect, will be fine, Qiqi...

Shi Qi met Xiang Ling's gaze, which was full of attachment, comfort, and determination...

Perhaps... there is also hidden reluctance and farewell.

Shi Qi's eyes flickered slightly, and he just held Xiang Ling's hand tightly, leaned on Xiang Ling's shoulder, and felt his breath.

She didn't say anything, and the two of them were silent, each with their own thoughts.

She felt a little regretful. If she had known that the incident would happen so suddenly, she would...

She should invite him to the temple and pray for the best marriage for them.

He began to hesitate. If he knew that tonight might be the last date, he would...

It should be three books and six ceremonies...Oh no.

He shouldn't have slept so much. He should have taken advantage of the last moments to look at her face more...

……

Xuanyuan Palace.

This is no longer the normal palace of the past.

There were only soldiers patrolling on the road; the guards and palace maids were nowhere to be seen. The atmosphere was extremely low. The flickering torches cast crooked shadows on the dead bodies pierced on the wall.

Outside the main palace, there were layers of siege, and many people with strange movements were walking around the altar, making weird gestures.

In the main hall, Xuanyuan Wuhen was kneeling, tied up with chains, with wounds all over his body.

This is undoubtedly the greatest insult to the Emperor.

Su Xiaoxiao was pressed and controlled behind Su Yi, her face full of tears and resentment.

She just wanted to get rid of the monster Xiang Ling, but why...that fairy clothes was also a monster!

She regretted and hated herself for making the decision on her own. She just wanted to get rid of Xiang Ling to protect the emperor, but she didn't expect to attract a more vicious enemy...

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please wake up...ah." Su Xiaoxiao's eyes were already swollen. She wanted to rush over to help Xuanyuan Wuhen up, but was stopped by Su Yi again.

"My dear daughter, Daddy really thanks you. If you hadn't spread the news, Daddy would have to wait for another chance, hahahaha. Don't worry, Daddy won't kill him. I will just support the new king. After we get rid of Shi Qi and Xiang Ling, Daddy will send you away and give you a new identity."

Su Yi sat on the dragon throne, looking down at the dejected man on the ground with disdain.

"Your Majesty, you'd better tell us their whereabouts as soon as possible, otherwise... you will end up like your mother." Su Yi raised his eyebrows, his old face wrinkled with smile, and he looked very proud.

When Xuanyuan Wuhen heard the word "mother", he raised his head abruptly, his eyes fierce, spit out a mouthful of blood, and gritted his teeth: "Bah! Su Yi, do you still have any conscience?"

"For so many years, my mother has treated you well, and I have turned a blind eye to you. How could you... treat her so cruelly!"

Su Yi snorted coldly: "Haha, Your Majesty, you are wrongly accusing me. The Queen Mother... was clearly killed by Lord Shi. It is not too much for me to arrest the criminals and monsters, right?"

"If the emperor continues to cover up and refuse to confess, don't blame me... for being cold-blooded and heartless."

Xuanyuan Wuhen was trembling all over, but after being whipped while kneeling on the ground for such a long time, his knees could no longer bear the weight of his body and he was unable to stand up.

He looked at Su Xiaoxiao with some disappointment.

In fact, this situation was bound to happen sooner or later, but because of Su Xiaoxiao's actions, they lost more than half a month of preparation time.

Xiang Ling only had four of them left, their wounds had not healed, Liao Zhi Restaurant's special explosives had not yet been developed, and General Yan's troops were still on the way.

This sudden blow shattered all their plans.

Su Xiaoxiao cried, knowing that she had no way to explain. Her lover's disappointed look pierced her heart: "Your Highness... It's all my fault..."

Xuanyuan Wuhen just shook his head.

"Half an incense stick has burned out, and the emperor still hasn't said anything, right?" Su Yi said coldly.

He waved his hand to his men and said, "Come here, lift him into the water..."

"Yes!"
