The Useless Miracle Doctor Consort Is Spoiled Rotten by the Prince!
Chapter 1398: 1393: Three Swords, Claiming Chen Ruobai's LifeChapter 1398: Chapter 1393: Three Swords, Claiming Chen Ruobai’s Life
She had not yet figured out how to phrase her request when Su Yingxue told her, “You beg Her Majesty to spare Chen Ruobai’s life, but do you know that my husband is still battling her, uncertain whether he is dead or alive?”
Zhuo Qing closed her mouth, and silent tears spilled from the corners of her eyes.
Indeed, what right did she have to ask Su Yingxue to spare the princess?
The princess was already deeply mired, unable to extricate herself.
All she could ask for…
was that the citizens within the capital might survive, and that Ji Yun Country might see a day of rejuvenation.
Compared to her tumultuous emotions and anxiety, Chen Qingshui appeared quite indifferent. Her face was expressionless as always, but when she first met Chu Yihan yesterday, she suddenly felt dazzled.
Some people, just by their appearance, can remain unforgettable for a lifetime.
And his heroic, solitary advance, clad in iron and gold, inspires admiration and longing.
Thus, she began to fall.
Chu Yihan, fighting alone at the Blood Pool, had already anticipated that Chen Ruobai would resort to all sorts of treacherous tactics. Beyond the gates of Ji Yun Country’s imperial palace were a blood-created air and a red mist, swirling ominously before your eyes, instilling baseless fear and tremors.
Before Chu Yihan stood a nine-foot-tall monster.
It was called a monster because it wasn’t a gu corpse made from one living person, but from two.
That’s right.
It was a complete person, headless, with half a body superimposed on its shoulders. They merged together, faces green and fangs bared, more ferocious than the ghosts of hell by several degrees.
Chu Yihan’s warhorse was startled and kept retreating. Chu Yihan leaped up, and the Qingfeng Sword traced a lightning-like shadow in mid-air, wielding a thunderous momentum as it chopped at the monster.
“Clang—”
A loud sound followed, and Chu Yihan turned back to look after landing.
The monster had fallen, stirring up a denser blood mist.
But quickly, it stood up again.
Chu Yihan’s brow furrowed deeply.
“Chu Yihan, are you scared?”
From atop the palace wall, a woman’s husky laughter echoed.
Chen Ruobai, with her white hair, was leaning on the wall, her laughter sinister to the extreme.
Chu Yihan leaped into the air, standing at a position where he could meet her gaze, “If I were afraid, would I have come here alone?”
“I do admire your courage. Do you know how many gu corpses are spread throughout this imperial palace? They are all concocted from living people, all of them royalty from the Lian Hai Kingdom! Hahaha!”
Chen Ruobai laughed loudly, pointing at the nine-foot-tall monster, “Look at that, that’s Mu Ronghuan, the king’s elder brother, merged with his subordinates by me. They feel no pain and will only attack you until they tear you into pieces.”
“Then let’s see.”
Ordinary blades and ordinary people might have nothing on this monster.
But he was Chu Yihan.
The Qingfeng Sword stood in mid-air, its sword energy transforming into a blade edge, striking the nine-foot monster with a thunderous force. Chen Ruobai had never seen such supreme martial arts with her own eyes. Now, standing atop the wall, watching Chu Yihan’s whistling sword energy pierce through that gu corpse, then—
“Boom!”
The gu corpse exploded as if torn apart by five horses, Mu Ronghuan and his subordinates shattered into segments, scattered all around.
Such mighty inner strength!
Such domineering martial arts!
“Damn it!”
Chen Ruobai cursed under her breath, placing a short flute to her lips. As its sound rang out, more gu corpses attacked Chu Yihan. Alone with his sword, he slew over a hundred gu corpses cleanly, climbing the mountain of bodies and blood to leap onto the palace wall, confronting Chen Ruobai face-to-face, with the Qingfeng Sword pointing straight at her.
“I’m not resigned!”
Chen Ruobai spat out blood, speaking indignantly, “Chu Yihan, it shouldn’t be like this! How dare you charge in here alone, you’re the emperor, aren’t you afraid of dying!”
These gu corpses were all venomous, if Chu Yihan was even slightly careless, he could contract corpse poison and die instantly!
Yet knowing this, he still dared to confront her!
“People afraid of death cannot sit on the throne, Chen Ruobai, you are not yet worthy of the throne behind you.”
Chu Yihan glanced at the throne behind her, and when his gaze fell on her, it was filled with disdain and scorn. “No sovereign reigns with cruelty and tyranny, treating subjects as playthings, and harming them at will. The duty of a sovereign is to protect the homeland and ensure the peace and happiness of the people!”
“Spare me your sermons! The medicine on your body may put the gu insects to sleep, but did you know that the blood of gu corpses is also poisonous? Especially to you.” Chen Ruobai sneered coldly, noticing that a black fog had crept onto Chu Yihan’s brow.
He was poisoned.
Chu Yihan drew his sword, and with a single strike, a splashing sound was heard.
Chen Ruobai’s blood splattered on the spot.
The Qingfeng Sword pierced her chest, the tip running through her body and letting blood flow.
“You… how ruthless.” Chen Ruobai clenched her teeth. This man was indeed ruthless!
“This sword is to avenge my general, Lin Sisi!”
Chu Yihan pulled out the sword and deeply pierced Chen Ruobai again, “This sword is to avenge the innocent lives lost from the Xiao family!”
“Pfft!”
Blood splattered, staining his celestial-like visage with blood.
The third sword pierced through Chen Ruobai’s abdomen, “This sword is to lay the souls of those afflicted by war to rest!”
“Pfft!”
Chen Ruobai collapsed on the ground, losing consciousness, fully experiencing Chu Yihan’s ruthlessness.
Three fierce strikes—a stab to her heart, cutting her meridians, and shredding her organs, causing her excruciating pain as she died.
Indeed… a ruthless sovereign!
She had indeed thought too kindly of him.
Kind-hearted sovereigns are easy to deal with, but when they show their decisive and lethal side, their enemies are doomed without burial grounds.
Chen Ruobai finally understood upon her death that being a sovereign was extremely difficult – requiring martial arts, knowledge, strategic wartime command, a broad-minded spirit, bravery, and numerous skills all in one.
She truly… could not achieve it!
“I wish… to take her with me.”
Behind Chu Yihan, a man said this with a trembling voice.
He did not dare to be presumptuous in front of Chu Yihan, kneeling and begging him for this.
“May the emperor allow me to take her away.”
Mu Rongche kowtowed to Chu Yihan.
Chu Yihan’s blood-dripping sword tip pointed at him, “Chen Ruobai’s head is to be displayed at the city gate.”
He couldn’t let him have it!
“Then… I must offend the emperor.”
Mu Rongche scattered white powder from his hand, blinding Chu Yihan. By the time he cleared the powder, Chen Ruobai was gone.
Mu Rongche had run off with her.
“Hubby!”
“Emperor!”
Su Yingxue and Mo Qi, among others, rushed over; Ye Qingru had already cleared all the gu corpses from the city.
Su Yingxue clung to Chu Yihan, her heart still pounding wildly, “Are you okay? Did the gu corpses touch you?”
“It’s no matter.”
Chu Yihan comforted her briefly, then immediately ordered, “Mo Qi, go after Mu Rongche. He can’t have gone far.”
“Yes, Emperor!”
As Mo Qi rushed out, he saw Mu Rongche climbing up a building outside the palace with Chen Ruobai in his arms.
In the sky, there was a hovering hot air balloon.
“This is bad, they’re trying to escape!” Mo Qi hurried after them.
