MTL - The Golden Elixir is a Star. Do You Call This Cultivating Immortality?-Chapter 52 The Wind Rises in the Imperial City

Chapter 52 The Wind Rises in the Imperial City

 The night is dark.

 In the imperial city, Aunt Qin was covered in blood.

 The horror in her eyes has not dissipated, but at this time, she is running madly towards the city.

 But the two auras behind her did not catch up, but lay dormant.

 However, Aunt Qin's shock did not dissipate.

 She entered the palace quickly.

"Aunt Qin, what's wrong with you?" Jinli looked horrified when she saw Aunt Qin covered in blood.

Beside them, Yu Guogong and the great sage Kong Qi, who were supervising the progress of building the sacrificial platform, also walked over quickly, obviously noticing Aunt Qin's miserable condition.

When they saw Aunt Qin's seriously injured appearance, both of them had a look of worry and despair in their eyes.

In the past few days, they were not only building a sacrificial platform, but also secretly plotting with Aunt Qin to see if they could send Queen Jinli out of the imperial city.

Tonight, Aunt Qin secretly left the city as a test.

 Unexpectedly, Aunt Qin would return home seriously injured.

"Ahem..." Aunt Qin coughed and coughed up a mouthful of blood foam, which seemed to be mixed with broken organs and minced meat.

Upon seeing this, Jinli quickly gave Aunt Qin the healing medicine brought by Huaxian.

 Aunt Qin's complexion improved a little after taking the medicine.

“Aunt Qin, are you feeling better?” Jin Li was extremely worried.

"It's better. Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty." Aunt Qin looked at everyone and said seriously, "Just now, I was about to leave the city, but I encountered two emperors blocking me!"

 “What, you two?”

"If it were just two people, they wouldn't hurt me so badly. There are several people hiding in the dark.

 The most important thing is that they are not humans, they are monsters!

 A large formation has been set up outside the imperial city! "Aunt Qin spoke very fast.

When everyone present heard this, their expressions changed drastically.

The great sage Kong Qi’s beard trembled: “Demon? A great formation?”

“Outside this formation, the sky is filled with blood and there are three thousand white flags. It seems to be the formation for burying souls into the flags!” When Aunt Qin said this, everyone present could not stand still!

The formation of burying souls into flags has a reputation for evil.

 Fifty years ago, there was a small country adjacent to the territory of monster beasts. It was invaded by the monster clan, and a large formation of souls buried in flags was set up, and hundreds of thousands of people in the small country were tortured to death.

Because of that incident, the human nations on the Moon Moon Continent were furious and formed a coalition to fight against the monsters.

 As a result, the vitality is severely damaged.

 It was also because of that time that the imperial power of Nangan Kingdom began to gradually decline.

 Several major human kingdoms have undergone tremendous changes.

Now I heard from Aunt Qin that there is a formation for burying souls into flags outside the imperial city. How can a few people not be scared and lose their souls?

“Did you read that correctly?” Duke Yu looked at Aunt Qin with a low voice.

 The rest of the people also looked at Aunt Qin with anxious expressions.

Aunt Qin said: "I read it right, that is the formation of burying souls into flags!"

Hearing this, Kong Qi sat on the ground in despair. Suddenly he stood up and said, "I'm going to ask him, what exactly does Sima Ting want to do?"

Jinli also felt a little frightened when he heard the news.

She also wanted to think that Sima Ting was just trying to usurp the throne and only wanted her life and the lives of those behind her.

Now it seems that Sima Ting has evil intentions and wants the entire Nangan Kingdom to be destroyed!

 It's just that so many demon clans are still emperors, entering Nangan!

Don’t you know about the Tianyun Holy Sect?

Jinli felt inexplicably chilled, and she also knew that this matter was deeper than she imagined.

However, she looked at the sacrificial platform that was about to be built, with a sharp look in her eyes: "Let's put it down now, let's build the sacrificial platform first!"

Her voice was firm and unquestionable.

Kong Qi, who was originally in despair, also stood up: "I obey."

 It's just that his energy and spirit are completely gone.

Jinli returned to the palace and stood alone in the bedroom, looking through the window at the ancient Qi Chun trees in the sky. She held Linglong Yuxi tightly.

“Qi Yuan, if it were you, what would you do?”

 …

  In the Prime Minister's Mansion. Sima Ting lowered his head and looked extremely flattering.

“Several sirs, if that person is not eliminated, I am afraid that the affairs of the great formation will be exposed and affect your great plans.”

 The thin emperor at Tianyun Holy Sect smiled and said nothing.

The demon emperor didn't care at all: "The formation is complete, and when it is revealed, it will be revealed.

 The turmoil in the city is also very beneficial to the process of refining the Bloodless Emperor Scepter! "

"But...if they spread the word, something might happen and cause the soldiers in the city to mutiny!" Sima Ting was still a little worried.

"Don't you, Sima Ting, still be able to control your soldiers?" the Monster King mocked.

Sima Ting broke out in cold sweat: "If the matter is leaked, I will definitely find a reason to appease the morale of the army."

Now, the entire imperial city is in his hands, and it is not difficult to appease the military morale.

“I heard that at noon the day after tomorrow, your queen will be on the altar to offer sacrifices to God?” The demon emperor changed his subject.

 “Exactly.” Sima Ting replied.

“It’s just right, I have nothing to do, I’ll go take a look.

 Let’s take a look at my future wine vessel. Is it stunningly beautiful? "The demon king laughed.

"I'll make arrangements right away." Sima Ting originally didn't plan to go, but since the demon emperor was going, he had to bring all the civil and military officials with him.

 “Yes.” The Demon King nodded with satisfaction, a deep look in his eyes.

 When he went to see the sacrificial altar, it was naturally not just to look at his own drinking vessels.

On that day, all civil and military officials will gather together, and he will go on a killing spree.

The blood is in turmoil, people are in panic, and the entire imperial city will be in turmoil.

 Blood, fighting, fear, and desire converge, and the bloodless emperor's staff will make the place even more terrifying.

Of course, he would not tell Sima Ting these words.

 …

The sacrificial platform is more than two feet high, with a pavilion on top. There are sculptures of small animals on each of the four corners of the pavilion.

The whole sacrificial platform gives people the feeling of being simple and crude, full of primitive and rough atmosphere.

Looking from a distance, it looks vast and heavy.

 Because of its simplicity, the construction of the sacrificial platform did not take much time.

Sima Ting was sitting upright, and the demon king was sitting next to him, showing no posture at all.

Sima Riyue's hair was not tied up, and he looked even more arrogant.

Besides, a group of civil and military officials were whispering.

 Some looked at Sima Ting with doubts in their eyes, while others looked at the Demon King with thoughtful expressions.

 Obviously, Aunt Qin has revealed the news about the formation.

 However, most people felt that it was just a divorce plan by Queen Jinli.

Of course, among them, there is no emperor-level powerhouse among them, and they cannot discover the Soul Burying Flag Formation at all.

 “Your Majesty is here!”

With a burst of sound, Queen Jinli appeared in everyone's sight.

 Wearing a golden cross-collared wide-sleeved coat, with a golden phoenix bird between the sleeves, a white jade necklace on the neck, decorated with gold flowers, an exquisite jade ribbon tied around the waist, and a pearl phoenix crown on the head.

 At this moment, she looked as graceful and majestic as the empress.

 It's a pity that when Queen Jinli appeared, except for the Minister of Rites and a few people, no one saluted her at all.

 At that time, the army entered the imperial city, and Sima Ting and his family were too lazy to pretend any more.

Sima Riyue was pleased to see this scene. He leaned close to Sima Ting's ear and said in a loud voice: "Dad, if you had done this earlier, would your son be the prince?"

Many civil and military people in the Manchu Dynasty smiled when they heard this.

Jinli was speechless when he heard this.

“The auspicious time has come, please sacrifice to God!” Kong Qi straightened his back and spoke in a thick voice, as if this sacrifice would witness the end of a dynasty.

   Thanks to [Rakshasa_aA] [Challenge the Best Water in the World] for the reward!
