Chapter 146 – No Survivors (2)

At that moment, Zhao Yunqin only felt the sky and the earth shake before her, and she almost fainted.
But still, she was quick to remember something else very important.

“Where’s Prime Minister Wen’s group?!” Her face contorted, “Did they betray us and that’s why we…”

Is that the reason why all of them were wiped out so easily?

“No, no, no.” The person who replied remembered the demonic scene from before, and broke down a second time, tears falling down in a streak, “Not only our people, but none of the dead soldiers that the Prime Minister Wen and the other families have lent for this mission have returned…all of them dead! Five hundred men–all annihilated! ”

Finally, the empress dowager couldn’t take this blow any longer.
Her vision turned black and she fell to the ground.
Fortunately, someone else had caught her just in time, otherwise she would have rolled down the stairs!

When she thought about how difficult it was to cultivate an inner force expert, Zhao Yunqin’s entire body trembled.
Her heart felt like it was being agonizingly, slowly cut by knives, she did not know how to explain this matter to the aristocratic families.
She tightly held onto the arm of the person supporting her, and asked with the last bit of hope, “Then what about Mo Linyuan? What’s his status?!”

She had sacrificed so much.
Even if Mo Linyuan wasn’t able to die, at the very least he should have lost half his life, right?

Yet in this dreadful moment, she didn’t even know that those people were killed off by just a single person; she only cared about what happened to the culprit!

Her trusted aide said sympathetically, “Your Majesty, he…he’s injured, but with the protection of the armor, only his skin was damaged…”

Before he could finish, the empress dowager’s eyes rolled to the back of her head and she finally fainted.
The entire palace was instantly submerged into chaos.
Especially since all the imperial physicians were present at Mo Linyuan’s place, no one could actually inspect the faint empress dowager.

“How is she?” Mo Linyuan eagerly asked the imperial physician before him.

Everyone had checked Ye Mu’s pulse.
After the final imperial physician had made his diagnosis, they all talked between themselves, coming to a conclusion, “This lady has broken her meridians forcefully, but she is still young, so her body will still recuperate in the future.
However, until her full recovery, she shouldn’t casually use inner force for now.”

The imperial physicians could only see this as the sole answer and remedy.
As for the reason why Ye Mu’s personality had a drastic change overnight, it was very likely related to the type of martial arts Ye Li had passed on to her.
For this, they could only wait until she woke up before they could ask her.

After a few more days of resting, Ye Mu finally woke up.
She was woken up by her nightmares; she was wailing.
Inside that dream, she was a demon that was harvesting people’s lives.

Ye Mu didn’t want to kill anyone, everyone.
But it was as if it wasn’t her own body that she couldn’t control herself.
And later, when the people remaining had wanted to escape away and forfeit, she originally wanted to let them go.

But at that time, when those people had scattered in all directions—in her eyes, they were like red dots jumping about in a grayish world! She couldn’t control the impulse and chased after them.
And when they counterattacked, she would naturally kill back.

As if they weren’t already under a crushing defeat, she feared that the dead would run away, so she had piled them up together.
Only when she saw that they weren’t able to move, did she feel satisfied.

This kind of sick cruelty caused her to murder person after person in front of her eyes, until there were none left.
Until she turned her gaze towards the soldiers on the other side.
And among them stood Mo Linyuan.

There was such a horrifying impulse to harvest everyone’s souls, but she was only a seven-year-old child in appearance.
Her morals underneath her irrational haze wasn’t completely extinguished yet, and in order to control the endless desire to kill, that was definitely not from her own will, she could only break her meridians and use the pain to wake herself up.
