Hide And Cultivate In The East Palace, Only To Find The Prince Is A Girl-Chapter 882 - : Consort Ming
Chapter 882: Consort Ming
Bai Wuji and his four disciples were dumbfounded. They could not believe that all of this was real. Their high and mighty master, the Vice Sect Leader of the Ethereal Sky Sect, could not even withstand a single move from the other party?
Cripple Lei Hai.
Elder Qing went all out and attacked again. He pointed his index finger and shot out five finger forces, hitting their dantians and crippling them.
He retracted his palm and the Righteousness Qi that filled the sky returned to his body. He stroked his beard and smiled.” I haven’t exercised my muscles and bones for a long time. I haven’t had enough fun yet. It’s over now.”
” You’re really powerful,” Zhang Ronghua complimented.” It’s their honor to be defeated by you.”
Elder Qing’s smile grew wider. The more he looked, the more satisfied he became.
He took out a Sumeru Pouch and threw it to Old Geng. There was a True Spirit inside and three flasks of Heavenly Jade Brew. The True Spirit was given to him by Yang Hongling.
“Get the chef to do it with all his heart,” Zhang Ronghua instructed.
“Yes, sir!”
“Take them in.”
The bailiffs lifted Lei Hai and the others from the ground and led them into the backyard.
Wan Chonglou and the other two felt awkward. At the same time, they were secretly glad that if they had attacked just now, they would have ended up like this.
“Come with me,” said Zhang Ronghua.
He turned around and entered the Platinum Courtyard.
Lu Rong hesitated for a moment but still followed.
“Master…” Zhu Xuechen said.
“Believe in my lord!” Wan Chonglou waved his hand and interrupted him.
This was the only way. There was no other way. He entered the inn and returned to his room to wait for the news.
In the backyard.
In the room.
Zhang Ronghua sat on the main seat while Lu Rong stood there cautiously. She looked like a withered flower that could fall at any moment. She took out a voice recording stone and asked,” How did you find out that Bai Wuji is Bai Yichang’s illegitimate son?”
Lu Rong looked up subconsciously. Her clear eyes rolled around. She was quite surprised. She didn’t dare to think or ask anything. She told him everything honestly.
She had a good relationship with her junior sister Qiu Shuang. They talked about everything. When they were chatting, she heard the other party mention it and brushed it off.
Unexpectedly, not long after.
Qiu Shuang died, and then she was hunted down, resulting in today’s scene.
Zhang Ronghua understood. Qiu Shuang was Bai Wuji’s plaything. She wanted to cling onto his thigh and obtain more profound cultivation techniques and resources.” Is there anything else you want to add?”
“No!” Lu Rong frowned and shook her head.
A flash of inspiration occurred to him as he thought of something.
“Does a spirit treasure count?”
“Be more detailed.” Zhang Ronghua vaguely grasped the main point.
” Bai Wuji has a total of two spirit treasures, and his cultivation technique is a mid-grade heaven-tier one. He also has countless elixirs and spirit medicines, all of which he bought with his own money.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes!”
Zhang Ronghua’s thoughts turned quickly as he thought of Pang Youshan’s case. He had colluded with Sun Jin to steal feys from the Ministry of Works, secretly making and selling them. They couldn’t do it alone, much less hide it for so long. Previously, they had suspected that Bai Yichang was involved in this matter. They had also investigated in secret, but they didn’t have any useful clues.
The mansion was ordinary, and the expenses were normal. He did not have any extra money. He did not expect to spend money on Bai Wuji.
Based on his cultivation, he could tell that Bai Wuji was a talented young man. If he was properly nurtured and taught by a famous teacher, he would have a bright future. However, money was a prerequisite.
Without money, even with the guidance of a master, it would be extremely difficult to grow without cultivation resources.
In this way, it made sense.
After pondering for a moment, he decided to tell her about the Profound Gold on the account that she was about to die.
“Your brother is already dead.”
Boom!
Lu Rong’s delicate body trembled. Her injuries had yet to recover. When she heard this, she fell to the ground and tears flowed out uncontrollably. She still held onto a trace of hope in her heart. She asked in a trembling voice,” How, how did she die?”
“I killed him!” Zhang Ronghua replied.
Lu Rong gritted her teeth and didn’t speak.
Zhang Ronghua briefly explained the matter. He heard that his brother had tried to assassinate his master for his sake and ended up like this. Lu Rong did not blame Zhang Ronghua. A murderer had to be prepared to be killed.
Moreover…
Zhang Ronghua had always had a good reputation. Ever since he became an official, everything he did was for the sake of the people. He had never abused his power for personal gain or done anything that violated the laws of nature. Such a good official should not be killed!
He hated himself! If he hadn’t mentioned spirit treasures and Heaven Rank cultivation techniques in front of his brother the last time they met, everything could have been avoided.
Puff!
In his despair, his injuries were affected, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His face turned even paler, and his aura was dispirited. He could die at any moment. He tried his best to speak,” My brother shouldn’t have done this! I apologize to you on his behalf!”
With great willpower, he stood up stubbornly from the ground and bowed deeply. He thought of his childhood. Although he was poor, he and his brother relied on each other. He took half a bun and ate it for each other. He was in danger, but he was very happy.
With a smile, he closed his eyes and fell to the ground. His aura dissipated and he was completely dead.
“Sigh!” Zhang Ronghua sighed.
Everyone had to pay the price for what they had done.
“Men,” he ordered.
The door was pushed open and two guards walked in.
“Give her body to Wan Chonglou,” Zhang Ronghua said.
“Yes, sir!” The two of them replied respectfully.
He walked over and carried her corpse away. Then, he asked the maid to come over and clean the room.
