Chapter 1129: Chapter 994 Bloodstained Queenâs Palace (Part 1) Chapter 1129: Chapter 994 Bloodstained Queenâs Palace (Part 1) âPrincess Tianji!!â
All the servants coming in and out were frightened, their faces pale. They each held items from Mu Qingyiâs own sleeping quarters, because the Queenâs Palace had already changed hands. Fang Wu, who now held the highest position, ordered people to move these things that originally belonged to Mu Qingyi out and bring some new items in.
The servants dared not defy the order and naturally followed it.
But now, seeing the princess in front of them, and the Majestic White Tiger by her side, they immediately felt guilty and timid, and knelt down in front of her.
At this moment, several maidens at the door saw Mu Qingyi; they stood there, legs trembling slightly, yet their faces forcibly composed.
âYou⊠you wicked woman, how dare you come here!â the Chief of the Maiden Guards, Zhuo Jun, said angrily, pointing at Mu Qingyi.
Zhuo Jun had naturally been brainwashed by Fang Wu, and by now, everyone knew that Mu Qingyi was no longer the Mu Qingyi of the past, without the Crowned Phoenix King her strength might not even surpass Fang Wuâs.
âLady Fang Wu spared you once, offering you a way to live; donât be ungrateful!â the young maiden next to her scolded sharply.
Now, the entire Soul Covenant and Wanxiang City had stirred up an insurrection against Mu Qingyi, and these women were among the core instigators.
In the past, these maidens harbored intentions and would have been afraid of Mu Qingyi. Now there was no need to fear, since there were experts within the Queenâs Palace who could handle her.
âWhat are you all kneeling for, sheâs no longer the master here, get up!â Zhuo Jun, embarrassed and furious, shouted at the servants who knelt scattered across the floor.
The servants glanced at Mu Qingyi, then at Zhuo Jun, unsure whose order to followâŠ
Mu Qingyiâs gaze was cold and proud; now even a maiden guard chief dared to be so arrogant in front of her.
However, Mu Qingyi didnât even consider a person like Zhuo Jun to be worth noticing. She didnât even know what the womanâs name was before. Such characters were not worth her time to confront.
She took strides forward, not sparing these few people another glance, led by the White Tiger, straight into the Queenâs Palace.
âGo and inform Lady Wu Huang and Lord Tie Xin,â the Maiden Guard Chief said hurriedly when she saw the situation going awry.
Mu Qingyi was not in a rush, since someone was going to notify those two sinful disciples, she could easily wait inside the Great Hall.
Itâs not that she dared not storm in directly, but Mu Qingyi was concerned that, in a fit of rage, she might tear the Queenâs Palace apart, which would be somewhat regrettable for her clan.
Mu Qingyi entered the front hall and directly sat down in the main seat of the Great Hall, waiting for her two female disciples.
The White Tiger lay beside Mu Qingyiâs throne quietly, making the maidens who only dared keep their distance tremble with fear.
âŠ
Fang Wu of the Eight Desolates was now bustling around in the servantsâ quarters of the Queenâs Palace. Although she could not be the queen, the palace was now hers to command, and she wanted to sweep away everything related to Mu Qingyi and replace it with her own belongings.
Fang Wu and Mu Qingyi were both Female Soul Pet Trainers from the same era, Fang Wu even had a reputation before Mu Qingyi.
However, as Mu Qingyiâs influence soared like the midday sun, no matter how hard she tried, Fang Wu could never compare to Mu Qingyi.
The main reason was the Crowned Phoenix King. Without it, Fang Wu believed she could definitely defeat her!
She had indeed once sincerely submitted to Mu Qingyi, but that was years ago. Being continuously overshadowed by the golden, sacred glow of that woman, Fang Wuâs resentment had bottled up all the while.
However, Fang Wu did not have the courage to lay hands on her, since neither by imperial status nor by strength could Fang Wu provoke her.
Until a chance introduction by Xiong Mo Moling led to her being noticed by the Empress.
Fang Wu felt that the Empress was far more formidable than Heavenly Consort Mu Qingyi. Her eyes seemed to peer into oneâs soul, and her schemes were profoundly intricate, unlike Mu Qingyi, who for some trivial people offended the Heroic Throne, always carried some inexplicable sympathy, and lacked any queenly ambition altogether. What sort of woman was she to be a queen!
Thus, with a hint from the Empress and plentiful opportunities provided, Fang Wu began to orchestrate outrageous misdeeds and pinned all these actions on Mu Qingyi while cunningly hiding her own involvement. When the accumulation was substantial, she exposed it all at once, leaving Mu Qingyi beyond redemption.
Of course, the most important thing was to deal with the Crowned Phoenix King. In a world that respected the strong, mere blemishes could hardly touch Mu Qingyiâs position. Only by dramatically reducing her strength was there a chance to truly topple her.
Unexpectedly, all this went so smoothly!
Fang Wu was in high spirits now. Without Heavenly Consort Mu Qingyi, her status at Wanxiang City and within the Soul Covenant was entirely different from before, the feeling of holding everything, residing in the Queenâs Palace and being respected by allâit was nothing like being an ordinary follower!
âPack these items nicely inside, a single scratch and itâll cost you your head!â Fang Wu oversaw the work personally, since it was to set up her own sleeping quarters.
âThrow all these out and burn them, and if you dare to hide any of her stuff,â Fang Wu coldly threatened as she glanced at Mu Qingyiâs things piled up like trash.
The servants dared not say a word and followed instructions.
âLady⊠Lady Fang Wu, the princess⊠the princess is inside the Great Hall!â a maiden ran up in a panic, gasping for breath as she spoke.
âEmpress? How did she come to be here?â Fang Wu quietly wondered. It was said that Fang Wu still somewhat feared that woman, who had everything under her control, even holding the whole Soul Covenant in her hands. Her mere stamp could indeed make Wanxiang City tremble.â
âNo⊠itâs not her, itâs Princess Tianji!â the maiden hurriedly said.
âSlap!!â Suddenly, Fang Wu delivered a heavy slap to the maiden, causing blood to spill from the corner of her mouth.
Fang Wu glared furiously at the careless maiden, âStill calling her Your Highness? How many times must I tell you!â
âYes⊠yes, I wonât dare again, that⊠she is in the Queenâs Front Hall.â The maiden, covering her face, said very quietly.
âHmph, this wretch dares to come, go to Xiong Mo Palace and report this to Lord Xiong Mo, also relay a message to Empress.â
As of now, Fang Wu was not at all afraid of Mu Qingyi, who was like a bereaved dog. Last time, Mo Ling failed to take her down because she shamelessly sought asylum with the Three Great Palaces. This time, if she dared come by herself, she must be driven to a dead end!
Fang Wu called for Tie Xin, and with a group of rebellious maidens, hurried towards the Queenâs Front Hall.
âShe really came?â Tie Xin said with a somewhat strange expression.
Tie Xin wasnât really one of the traitorous ones, but as Mu Qingyi was seriously injured, disgraced, and her reputation ruined, she had to side with Xiong Mo and Fang Wu for her own safety.
âWhatâs there to panic about? The two of us together are enough to deal with her,â said Fang Wu!
Tie Xinâs expression was not quite normal, to be honest, the thought of confronting Mu Qingyi face-to-face always unsettled her.
âŠ
Mu Qingyi had many disciples, with Fang Wu being the strongest, followed by Tie Xin.
Fang Wu and Mu Qingyi were about the same age, while Tie Xin was even older than Mu Qingyi. Both of them had joined Mu Qingyi much later, after she had already made her name, whereas her truly personally cultivated disciples remained very loyal and did not betray her.
Unfortunately, as Mu Qingyiâs time as a mentor was short, these disciples had limited strength. Some were already squeezed out, while others were banished elsewhere; Mu Qingyi had only the retaking of her position to call them back.
On the throne, Mu Qingyi, as usual, sat there, her cold and proud eyes watching the two strongest female disciples and those determined to rebel maidens as they approached from the hall.
In the female-dominated Queenâs Palace, to bolster her standing, Fang Wu summoned all the expertsâmore than thirty potent Female Soul Emperors.
âMu Qingyi, have you come to confess your crimes?â Fang Wu hooked up a scornful sneer, looking very disdainfully at the woman who dared to sit on the throne.
Mu Qingyiâs gaze was quite calm, previously, she would not have hesitated to have the White Tiger slap Fang Wu to death, but now she showed great composure.
She didnât respond to Fang Wuâs words, only glancing at the head-bowed Tie Xin.
âTie Xin, I give you one chance. Leave now, and I will not pursue this further. But if you stay hereâŠâ Mu Qingyi made her point very clear.
Tie Xin didnât even have the courage to look Mu Qingyi in the eye.
âItâs always the same feigned righteousness. You never learn from your lessons. Youâre truly beyond help. Do you think youâre still who you were before? Please use that naive brain of yours to think about what you still rely on to talk like this. Could it be that man from the Three Great Palaces with the Chu surname? Itâs laughable! To think you, a lady of the imperial clan, would stoop so low as to sell yourself to a man for protection!â Fang Wu harshly jeered.
Mu Qingyi took a deep breath, her chest heaving with anger. So her people had slandered her to this extent, even fabricating tales of her selling herself for protection!
âYour Highness, you indeed have made too many enemies over insignificant matters⊠too rigid in your ways,â Tie Xin said slowly, bowing her head.
The Strong Ones have their rules, and Mu Qingyi had always deviated from them, carrying a sort of romantic idealism.
Burdened by her strength, no one previously dared to say anything to her. However, now that she really had nothing, Tie Xin could only choose to align with someone stronger.
Watching Tie Xin make her decision, a wave of melancholy surged in Mu Qingyiâs heart.
In dealing with her disciples, Mu Qingyi had always been very tolerant, but she had never anticipated that her leniency would foster such ambition in them.
âAlright, having chosen your path, hold no regrets. Youâd best be like Fang Wu; persistent to the end, leaving no room for retreat, or else you will find it hard to rise above othersâŠâ Mu Qingyi sighed softly.
The last bit of goodwill lingering in Mu Qingyi had vanished, her eyes shifting from helplessness to a chill, she slowly said, âHowever, these words I say are for the next lifeâs you.â
As her words fell, the White Tiger beside Mu Qingyiâs throne stood up, instantly filling the entire Queenâs Palace with an overwhelming aura of murder and frost!!!
Mu Qingyi had intended to show mercy, but thinking of the deceased Emperor Si Ye, and remembering those persecuted disciplesâŠ
Today, the Queenâs Palace must be stained in blood!!
