The Empress Of The Emperor
Cp 18 | Terrible Devil

"Whose soldiers are there, under whose watch?" emperor Zhun asked with a dislike expression.

"Y—Ya?" Eunuch Wu directly raised his head, looked towards Emperor Zhun then followed the direction of the tall man in front of him.

The brown Netra looked confusedly at the scene presented in front of it. There were no warriors, and there was only a lake that stretched wide with trees and bamboo forests across the lake.

"A—ampun Bixia, you mean .. Which soldier?" eunuch Wu asked a little timidly.

"You see there? He who was doing something—" Emperor Zhun immediately stopped his words as he looked towards Eunuch Wu. The old man was shifting little by little to look in the direction he was referring to.

Emperor Zhun's gaze immediately turned to the other two, his wife and General Li who were staring in the direction he had been referring to with puzzled expressions. Looking around for where the humans Emperor Zhun mentioned were, but still they did not find any of the soldiers.

Desperate Eunuch Wu not seeing anything immediately looked towards emperor Zhun. "ah! A—ampun Bixia, servant—"

"Heah ... Zhen forgot about this." His left hand raised, touched his forehead slowly and then dropped to cover his eyes, "You must know this ability," continued Emperor Zhun.

Han Mi who was listening was silent in silence, she really did not understand what the conversation was about before her. Capability—apa?

Eunuch Wu and General Li fell silent, trying to recall something. It didn't take long to remember. The two men immediately gasped in shock and knelt down. "A—ampun Bixia, this old eunuch has forgotten something very important like that."

"So much with the servant. Please Bixia forgive our carelessness." General Li cupped both his hands towards the front with a firm movement.

Emperor Zhun who saw this again only sighed helplessly.

Although he was an Emperor famous for his cruel and ruthless leadership, but honestly he was still able to be lenient towards someone he trusted so much.

One of them was Eunuch Wu who had served the Emperor since childhood, and already Emperor Zhun considered like his own family.

The man clad in luxurious hanfu turned his gaze towards where he saw the figure of the soldier who was doing indecent things within his personal territory.

His two eyes instantly closed as he said, "Li Jianjun, give your sword to Zhen."

Eh? Wh-wh-what for? inner General Li. Although he was confused, General Li still gave his sword according to orders to the Emperor. Draw it with two hands towards the front. Just as high as his head that was bowing respectfully.

After receiving General Li's personal sword, Emperor Zhun prepared the horses. Han Mi and Eunuch Wu who saw him instantly frowned in confusion.

A big question mark began to appear in their brains when they saw the movement that was getting more perfect. Not with General Li. He already knew for sure the typical movements of his Emperor.

So, there are indeed soldiers who have acted out of bounds, huh? It's great! Even he dared to do such a thing in this man's private estate. General Li scratched his temple which was suddenly itchy with a hint of frustration.

Emperor Zhun's right hand holding General Li's sword lifted up to form an elbow towards the back, preparing to draw the sword forward. In a slow motion, Emperor Zhun began to regulate his breathing.

A moment later He used his profound energy, exerting an extremely powerful force pressure on his right hand. Pushing the sword straight at lightning speed in the direction the tall man was heading.

His voice that was caused sounded so terrible, making the three people there fixated on staring at the incident in front of him. It's like a dream.

Right after Emperor Zhun launched his sword, a female cry rang out from the direction of the bamboo forest opposite them. Again, it succeeded in making Han Mi, General Li and Eunuch Wu look at each other with a feeling of fear that began to envelop their hearts.

Ah ... just now he killed another person, Inner Han Mi. His hands were immediately clinging behind his long hanfu arms. Squeezing his fingers at each other with a restless feeling that began to spread.

If I make a mistake, will he do it like this too? Killing me in a single swing of the sword, cutting off my head or drawing my heart with his sword? thought Han Mi again.

Her pair of blue beads turned jaded, staring at her husband who was standing with a sharp glare at one point across.

I'm just gonna kill my soldiers. Thank you that I have forgiven your life, O lowly woman, inner Emperor Zhun, as he stared at the man who was in great fear in his bamboo forest.

On the other hand, the situation inside the bamboo forest looked so dire. The extremely sharp sword tip pierced through the neck of the soldier targeted by Emperor Zhun. Seemed to be sticking out with splattered blood. Flowing like an open water tap.

The lifeless body decayed onto the ground to make the woman who was with him from the beginning instantly crawl in fear.

His body trembled violently in a simple hanfu wrap that had been half-opened. Featuring shoulders with smooth white skin as well as some pecking marks here and there.

"To—please ...," plead with a great vibrating voice. His gaze stared at the hand that had been covered in blood and turned to the clothes he was wearing.

Blood seemed not to flow through his face, now he looked very pale, some splashes of blood also had hit his face.

"Di—dia has died ...," she said for the last time before she was unconscious.

"Honor to the Great Lord of the Zhun Empire, the God of War. Zhang Junda came to report to Bixia Huang at," Zhang Junda said in a soft and respectful voice.

"Hamba has checked it. Just like in the report that I sent to Bixia a few days ago. Until the last day of the servant monitoring there, the Southern border of the Imperial fortress had no sign that the troops of the Jiang Empire were approaching. As well as the condition of the fortress in the Southwest, the Wen Empire's forces were still in their positions, no one came close to interact."

"What about Zhou Heng?"

"Abserving Bixia. Within 18 days of the investigation yesterday, I got a little information regarding Zhou Heng. The thousand-faced fox had never cooperated with the people of the Empire. Besides there's no more. The servant did not see and found any reports of Zhou Heng's appearance. There were no signs of strange movements, there were also no rumors about it, it was as if it had been lost to the earth" Zhang Junda explained.

Emperor Zhun was silent for a moment, "His skill did not diminish in the least. That cunning fox was very clever to hide everything." Emperor Zhun's gaze turned to Zhang Junda who was paying his respects in front of him.

His hand holding a bamboo roll— where there are reports of the government that yesterday was delayed due to war—soon he just put it on the short-legged table.

His right hand slowly lifted and refuted his head casually. "You're a high-class shadow warrior, you can't even find it." His voice sounds low. However, it was extremely terrifying for Zhang Junda.

"Hamba begs for forgiveness from Bixia." The young man was getting drowned. He felt that Emperor Zhun was getting angry at him.

"That's not what Zhen wanted," said Emperor Zhun looking indifferent.

His left hand flipped through a report inscribed on another bamboo scroll on the table, "Zhen wanted information on Zhou Heng's whereabouts," he continued with his gaze fixed straight at the confident shadow warrior ahead there.

Zhang Junda who heard this immediately raised a little of his face, looking at Emperor Zhun full of regret. "Bixia—"

"What's the defense condition in the area?" cut Emperor Zhun off instantly. Choosing to divert a bit of the conversation when he suddenly saw something in Zhang Junda.

It seemed like it would be a little difficult if he had to search for information regarding Zhou Heng alone. The fox of ity cannot be underestimated, the inner Emperor Zhun.

"Hamba answered Bixia Huang. The defense there was no change and everything was still under control like the last time Bixia visited."

"Xo Rue Mu?" ask Emperor Zhun casually.

"General Xo's condition has begun to improve. He also took his duty back. Some people were sent by him to check the conditions outside the border fortress. There are also special soldiers assigned to guard every important lane outside the fort, among them the three main lines of Yuzhe, Ro'en and Wamei," Zhang Junda replied respectfully.

"Good." Emperor Zhun straightened his body, his right hand immediately opened another bamboo scroll containing financial statements.

"For the time being, Zhen wants you to immediately find out the background of Hwang Lien Tianba and the Hwang family again. Immediately, then report to Zhen," Emperor Zhun ordered without turning to Zhang Junda.

It seems, this is because of my report of the strange technique I saw that night, when Her Majesty the Empress used it at the entrance of the Pianlin mountain, inner Zhang Junda.

"Good Bixia. I will carry out this command as soon as possible." Zhang Junda lowered his head while raising his clenched right hand and the interlocking left hand right in front of his forehead. He paid his last respects before he departed from before the Emperor.

Without saying anything, Emperor Zhun simply gestured using his hand.

"Hamba begged to resign from the presence of Bixia Huang at." After that, the young man with a height of 169 centimeters disappeared with a very fast movement. He hides in the shadows of the night to watch the situation around his master.

"How long have you not appeared before me, Zhou Heng?" The grin was clearly imprinted on Emperor Zhun's face.

"Interesting, how could this incident appear simultaneously? Zhou Heng and Hwang Mo Fen. Ahahahah. You think you can hide something from me, that lowly noble Hwang," sis Emperor Zhun.

His right hand squeezed the report that was in his grasp so tightly, that it involuntarily broke him.

He unconsciously returned to grinning, displaying an expression that he rarely showed. Under the light of the lantern, the grin and laughter of Emperor Zhun looked and sounded so sinister.

Breaking the silence of the night in the cold contest room of Zuwong Palace, so as to make the feathers of anyone will bristle for a moment.
