Chapter 990: Chapter 368: The Empress Is Exposed! Empress: I’m Going to the Southern Border! (Part 2)

For them, Gu Poison Worms are already equivalent to a part of their bodies, yet Chen Mo can seize control, causing the Gu Poison Worms to counterattack?

Such a method is utterly shocking, even a Sect Elder could not achieve it!

Chen Mo smiled and said, "I gave you a chance, and you chose the second path."

"I will talk! I will tell you everything! Kill me ah ah ah..." Wang Kun, unable to withstand the agony of ten thousand insects gnawing at his heart, completely lost his sanity and rolled on the ground, weeping and begging for mercy.

Ji Weifeng collapsed powerlessly to the ground, his eyes filled with despair and fear.

It’s over, completely over...

...

...

In reality.

Chen Mo sat on the chair with his legs crossed, looking perfectly composed.

The two people in front of him had completely fallen silent.

Wang Kun’s body, gnawed by the Gu Poison Worms, became a mess of blood and flesh, turning into a heap of mutilated mud.

Meanwhile, Ji Weifeng’s spirit was severely shaken, his consciousness scattered, his eyes rolled back, looking blank and stupefied.

Ye Zi’e asked in confusion, "Mr. Chen, what happened to the two of them?"

Upon entering the courtroom, before the sides could say much, these two fell to the ground rolling around, wailing while spilling everything out as if pouring beans from a bamboo tube.

Chen Mo shrugged, "Probably having a nightmare."

Ye Zi’e: "..."

In reality, right from the start, Chen Mo had secretly activated Big Dream Forever, concealing the fluctuations of soul power through conversation, unknowingly dragging the two into an Illusory World.

The so-called "Gu Poison Worm counterattack" was merely an Illusory Vision he fabricated.

But as long as the other party believed it, all of this would manifest on them as if it were real.

"This Wang Kun really has a sizable background, roughly equivalent to the role of a hall leader, managing three strongholds below."

"Though he doesn’t know the exact location of Yin Tiankou, he provided a lot of useful information..."

Chen Mo sorted out his thoughts.

Firstly, just as he had guessed, Yin Tiankou had indeed found a way to reconstruct his physical body and had already entered a critical stage.

Secondly, apart from Elder Shi, there was another mysterious Grandmaster Realm expert beside Yin Tiankou, whose Cultivation Technique was distinct from the Gu God Sect’s, likely an external aid found from elsewhere.

But at such a time, which Sect would dare to wade into these troubled waters?

At this moment, Li Yuan asked, "My lord, what do we do next?"

Chen Mo pondered slightly and said, "Next, we will head towards Bailu City, but before that, we need to clear out all the strongholds within the Tian Nan Realm."

Just now, from Wang Kun, he had learned the exact locations of several strongholds; the immediate task was to eliminate them completely!

"The sooner the better, we must act before they receive news."

"These several strongholds aren’t large in scale; if we split into two groups, we should be able to resolve them all before dawn."

Chen Mo methodically instructed, "Song Xuan, you go notify Kuang Jie to handle the aftermath; this Ji Weifeng has no value left, keeping him can serve as an explanation to the court..."

"Understood."

Everyone responded in unison.

After leaving the county government, Chen Mo flew away with Li Yuan.

Xu You did not hurry to move, glancing towards the distant street area with slightly narrowed eyes.

"Empress, what’s wrong?" Ye Zi’e asked curiously.

"Just an insignificant rat hiding in the dark, no need to bother, let’s go." Xu You sneered coldly, his figure concealed in the night.

...

...

In the courtyard opposite the county government.

Zhong Lihe hid behind the courtyard wall, his clothes drenched with cold sweat.

He had hurried all the way from Pu City to Fengmu County, and upon arriving near the county government, coincidentally witnessed the scene just now.

Given that the Empress had specifically instructed not to let Chen Mo be aware of his presence without special circumstances, he kept hiding in the dark, not recklessly exposing his identity.

Yet even so, he was easily detected by that woman.

Just a glance exchanged between them made him feel as if he was plunged into an ice cave!

Zhong Lihe, who had killed innumerable people and whose hands were stained with blood, had developed a keen sensitivity to murderous intent, almost an instinctual intuition.

The feeling this opponent gave him was only one thing—

Terror!

Like the top predator appraising its prey!

"If I were to fight her, I’m afraid I wouldn’t last more than three moves!"

"Let alone a mere Tusi officer, even Wei Xuan didn’t give such a sense of oppression...this person must be the Ultimate Venerable! And among the most powerful tier!"

"This matter is of immense importance and must be reported to His Highness immediately!"

Zhong Lihe took out a Jade Plate engraved with "As if the Saint is Present," injected Primordial Qi, and the plate glowed faintly.

This Token not only represented the dignity of the Imperial Family but also had communication functions.

It transmitted information through the Earth Veins and the Array nodes along the way, reaching the Imperial City within two hours, ensuring the information was as timely as possible.

After sending the message, Zhong Lihe put away the Token, hesitated for a moment, and flew southward.

"She was clearly warning me just now; if I continue following, I’ll probably suffer greatly..."

"Anyway, since Chen Mo is heading to Bailu City, I might as well wait there for him..."

...

...

Tiandu City, Imperial Palace.

Xuanqing Pool was brightly lit.

In the bathroom, steam swirled around, with rose petals floating on the water’s surface.

The Empress leaned against the edge of the bath, her snow-white body soaking in the pool water, water droplets sliding along her collarbone down into the valley. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"The little thief has already left the Capital City five days ago..." She counted on her fingers, calculating the days in her mind, lightly biting her pink lips, her eyes showing some resentment, "This heartless guy, not even sending a letter back, doesn’t he know how worried I am?"

Southern Border was not the same as Capital City, full of dangers.

Though Chen Mo was powerful, he was still youthful and impulsive, a temperament that could easily suffer losses.
