"What's wrong with being a widow? Why do you feel so dizzy, and even spit out so much filth. " King Wei covered his forehead with one hand and felt dizzy. He could not see the various civil and military officials in front of him, but he could still distinguish the vomit on the ground with the smell of his mouth and nose.

"The king has been invaded by the evil spirit and has been in a coma for three days." When Su Li saw that the King Wei could suddenly speak, he was both surprised and happy. With a relaxed smile on his face, he said to the King Wei.

"Oh? "There's actually such a thing?" King Wei was obviously unaware of everything that had happened in the past three days, and did not understand Su Li's words. Hence, his face was filled with doubt.

"Fortunately, the special envoy from Yan Country knew how to ask for the help of the gods of the Wei Kingdom. That was why the king was able to turn the situation around." Su Li saw that King Wei was still confused, so he immediately took the opportunity to introduce Jing Ke to King Wei.

"I am the envoy from Yan Country, Jing Ke. Under the orders of King Yan, I have come to send a special envoy to the Upper State to seek a plan for cooperation." Upon hearing Su Li's words, Jing Ke took the opportunity to bow and pay his respects to King Wei.

"Yan Kingdom's ambassador?" King Wei carefully rubbed his head, waiting for his eyes to clear before he looked at Jing Ke's appearance. His eyebrows and red lips were like willow trees, and his demeanor was imposing and imposing. He looked quite like a talented person, so he said to Jing Ke, "You saved me?"

"King Wei's fate is already as bright as the sun in the sky. He has the blessing of his ancestor, and Jing Ke is not talented. He's just acting as a guide for the sect." After hearing that King Wei's question, Jing Ke naturally understood the principle of modesty, hence he happily replied.

"You sure are eloquent. This King will definitely reward you heavily later." When King Wei heard Jing Ke's flattery, he really liked it in his heart, so he opened his mouth to reward him, but he threw the words "cooperation" that Jing Ke had just said to the back of his mind.

Speaking of Ah Yu's flattery, Wei Wang suddenly remembered Wei Qi and Hu Jia Lai. He raised his head and looked around at the crowd of officials behind Jing Ke. He then asked Su Li, "Where is Wei Xiang and Doctor Jia?"

Without waiting for Su Li to reply, he heard the voices of the two people behind him saying: "This subject is here to pray for the blessing of Your Majesty and has not stopped for three days. I am finally touched by the heavens and am fortunate that my King was able to turn the tide!"

As the two of them spoke, they walked out of the crowd and knelt before the sky while shouting. It seemed to be a very serious matter.

Thief, Zhu Hai and the others who were behind them saw the shamelessness of the two of them and could not help but lengthen their expressions and glare at them. However, they were from King Wei's chamber and could not do anything about it.

"Unexpectedly, both of you beloved officials have put in so much effort. Thank you for your hard work. This time, both of you have contributed greatly to escaping from death. You should be rewarded." Indeed, after hearing their flattery, King Wei was overjoyed and praised the two of them.

After the two of them heard this, their expressions of worry and depression also brightened up. Actually, when the two of them realized that Wei Jing and Wang Zhong were about to regain their consciousness, they had already made all sorts of preparations. The two discussed hiding in the crowd, not showing their faces. They waited for King Wei to call out, and then took the opportunity to kneel before them. They called out all the words they had prepared, so King Wei was unable to differentiate between north and south.

"Your Majesty, the Yan Kingdom's special envoy has travelled a great distance this time, but he came for the matter of the Acupoint Charging Sect …" When Su Li saw that the Wei Wang had been flattered by the two of them and shifted his attention away, he immediately warned the Wei Wang.

"Hey, Doctor Su, today is a good day for the king to take advantage of his calamity. We should hold a banquet to celebrate, so we should discuss the other matters in the imperial court tomorrow." Unexpectedly, before Su Li could finish speaking, Wei Qi interrupted his words with an excuse.

"En, Wei Xiang's words make sense. Today, the Oligarchs are going to have a banquet full of officials in recognition of their dragon aura," said Wei Jing and Wang Lin upon hearing Wei Qi's words, followed him and then turned to Xu Jia, "Doctor Xu, I'll leave this matter to you to handle."

"Okay." With regards to such extravagant and luxurious feast, it was naturally easy for Jia to arrange it. Thus, he purposely raised his voice to express his pride.

When Su Li saw that King Wei was not in the mood to ask about He Zong's grand plan to reject Qin, he could only silently curse Wei Qi and Xujia, two evil officials that would bring calamity to the nation. Thus, he could only temporarily give up and wait for the morning assembly to discuss this matter again.

Although the Mo family's big horned master had been ordered to kill the traitors, as his own brother and sister, he could not bear to harm them. Of course, secretly setting free traitors, according to the rules of the Dark Ink Residence, even if they didn't suffer the punishment, they still had to suffer the punishment. However, in the heart of the Beelzebub, if this kind of punishment could be exchanged for the life of Li, then even this little bit of pain would be worth it.

"The big horned master is back!" The sound of a report from the door interrupted the main Elders who were discussing with their husbands in the meeting room.

Seated on the table were the eight elders of the Mo family and the two elders of the Xiang Li family. Originally, according to the rules of the Deep Black Residence, the four assassins, such as Lu Zhen and Zhong Li, were supposed to be placed in front of these ten great elders. However, since these four people had left and betrayed them, only Lu Zhen and himself remained.

As the sound of the whistle died down, the disciples who had led him to the hall came striding in.

As the former head of the Four Great Monarchs, aside from his master Meng Wufei, Rushou was not afraid of anyone from the Dark Black Lands. Therefore, this method of returning was already very common to him. He kept walking forward, and it was as if he did not show any form of respect to any of the elders present here. He did not even spare them a glance as he headed straight for the seat of Taihang.

"Reporting to the big boss, today's harvest is back." Chou Zhen walked up to Tai Chuan, clasped his hands together, and greeted him with a casual greeting before speaking in a very indifferent tone.

Shouchuan originally should have had some respect for Taikou, but now that he had something on his mind, he unconsciously became impolite as well.

"Oh, so senior apprentice-brother Zhuang has returned." However, he had a dark smile on his face as he said, "You came suddenly today, and I haven't prepared a table for you. Therefore, I ask for senior brother to step down and temporarily stay with the Eighth Elder and allow Chang Feng to sit behind you."

After hearing the words of too many people, he looked around and saw that these people were lined up on both sides in a row. All of them seemed to be sitting there, looking very mighty and fierce. However, just from the position above the ten seats, he no longer had the four seats that had previously belonged to him. Not only was he somewhat disappointed, he was also disappointed.

"No need," Rushui was a little disappointed, but she still bluntly refused to accept his kindness. She then dropped to her knees and spoke directly to him, "Rushui came here today to apologize to Junior Brother Kui, and didn't dare to take a seat."

"Oh?" He pretended to be surprised at these words, and then asked, "What is Eldest Brother up to? Yet, you want to tell me something so serious. "

"I have been unable to reap any benefits, and have followed Fan's traitors on the orders of my son, only to have him escape accidentally. I hope my son will be punished."

"Oh," Tai Lang pretended to understand a little, and then tentatively asked him, "What about Junior Zhong Li?"

"Dong had already followed the orders of Dong Zi, and verified that Zhong Li had indeed betrayed the Deep Black Residence, and had gone to the Mo family to join the elder disciple Tian Gan of the Li family." Faced with such a rude question, Chou Zhen bluntly asked.

"As expected, it is as this noble one had expected. Chong Li has already become infatuated and has forgotten that he is the Four Phoenix Masters of Deep Sea Ink Residence. This is truly a waste of Master Fei's teachings!" Tai Jun heard from his mouth that Zhong Li had actually betrayed him, and anger instantly rose up within his heart. He then slammed his palm on the armrest of the chair, stood up and yelled angrily.

When everyone heard that their husband, the Four Phoenix Lord Li, had actually betrayed Deep Black Residence, they were immediately shocked. They all looked at each other in dismay, seemingly not understanding what was going on.

"Fourth Sister was bewitched by the enemy thieves and did not hesitate to collude with other enemies to betray my Dark Mo Residence. However, Chou Zhen was unable to stop them, so I ask Junior Brother Kui to punish them." Seeing that his anger was already unquenchable, he bowed his head again and confessed.

Eh, what is the meaning of this, "Tai Hou immediately walked down from his seat when he saw Dong Zou's current situation, and extended a hand as if to support him, but did not touch Dong Zou's forehead, and then continued," The Mo family's rebel, Tian Gan, is extremely powerful, and with the help of Chong Li from the side, it's even more like a tiger that has grown wings. Just you alone are not a match for those two, so even if you go all out, it's still not within reason for you to be unable to fight them.

"Thank you, junior brother Kui, for your understanding." After receiving this instruction, Zhuang Zi slowly stood up and then cupped his hands in a bow.

"Since you and I are fellow disciples of the same sect, there is no need to be so courteous. Please accept senior apprentice-brother Zhui." When Tai Hou saw that Dong Zhui was not courteous at all, it immediately felt somewhat unhappy in its heart. However, it still put on a fake smile and pretended to be courteous.

"Thank you for your hospitality, senior brother. I'm a little tired from the day's work, so I'd like to return to the Western Horned Palace to rest." Chou Zhen only said a few words of respect, then turned around and left.

Looking at the contempt Rushou had for his position as a son, Tai Lao felt that he had suffered a great humiliation. The corner of his eyes started to twitch as well. This was an anger that had been suppressed for a long time. However, this anger was suppressed by a strong self-control, so it was hard for ordinary people to notice this fleeting anger. However, they also didn't know that this sort of anger would erupt like a volcano if it was kept for too long.

"Huanzi?" The Senior Elder saw that Tai Kui's gaze was fixated on the retreating back of the man who was walking away, but he refused to withdraw. Therefore, he carefully asked for his permission.

When his thoughts were interrupted by this soft voice, he immediately reacted. Perhaps he thought that he had been disrespectful, and immediately revealed a smile, and said to the crowd, "Everyone, please take your seats and continue with the clan's business."

"We obey the holy orders." Everyone bowed their heads and saluted to Tai Po. Then, they went back to their respective seats and continued with their previous topic.

At this moment, the atmosphere had returned to the way it was before they were sent here. They were all pious and reverent. This was the atmosphere they wanted. This was the dignity and domineering attitude a leader of a sect should have.

He would absolutely not allow anyone to challenge his majesty and dominance, even if it was from the same sect.

The business hall of the Deep Black Residence had generally become empty at that time. The elders and disciples would also return to their own homes, leaving only a few attendants by their side. However, today, it was not just a few servants who were waiting there. There were also a few people who were unavoidably left behind.

"Is what the horned master said true today?" As he carefully trimmed his nails, he casually asked about the group of people kneeling in the hall.

Tai Hou was a very particular person, which was why he would often fix his nails. Of course, it was because he was a very particular person that his eyes could not tolerate a single grain of sand.

"Yes …" "It's true." The leader of the kneeling people in the hall trembled as he spoke.

Those people were none other than the members of the Xishui Temple. They were also the assassins who had followed Chou Zong to attempt to eradicate Tian Gan and Fan Yuzhen's group.

"Hmm?" When Tai Hou heard these people's shaky answers, he suddenly became suspicious. The meticulous fingernails in his hands also stopped, and his eyes glinted with a cold light as he stared at the people kneeling on the ground.

"Yes …" "It's basically true." When those people saw the fierce eyes of Tai Hou as if it wanted to see through their heart and lungs, they became even more flustered and tried to change their words again and again.

"What's going on? "Speak." When Tai Hou saw that those people were completely subdued by his dignity, he did not waste any more time trying to coerce or coerce them. Instead, he simply spat out a few words before continuing to fix his unfinished nails.

"It is true that the Four Phoenix Master has colluded with the Li family's Heaven Trickster to betray the Deep Dark Mo Residence, but …" After all, those people were disciples of the Western Horn Palace and were somewhat afraid of the Great Horned Master, so they swallowed half of what they were saying.

"But what?!" Tai Qing heard that those few people seemed to be hesitating and stammering, so he raised his head, and stared at those few disciples once again.

"It's just that the horned master wasn't defeated by the combined efforts of the Four Phoenix Master and Tian Gan. He had simply released the two of them without permission."

When the several men below saw that Tai Jun's gaze had locked onto their own heads, they were frightened out of their wits. They did not dare to hide anything from him, and directly spilled all the truth.

"Humph," Tai Hou heard the truth from these men of the Western Horn Palace, but was not surprised at all. He only sneered, and then blew on the powder on his fingertips, and said to himself in the air, "I had expected this result."

He dared to be so sure that this wasn't without basis, because he knew that Chou Shou and Chong Li had a deep friendship. Chou Shou had even considered Chong Li to be his own sister, so it wasn't strange that Chou Shou would secretly let Chong Li go. However, the reason he sent Chuang Dong to track down Li was to find out whether Chou Dong was loyal to the Deep Black Residence, or whether he would side with the traitor, Zhong Li. Now, it seemed that he had thought things through too simply.

"Go down." Since Tai Hou had received the information that he wanted, there was no point in letting this group of submissive people go, so he sent them off with a few casual words.
