Chapter 361 - You Forget Your Promise
"Come out! No matter what you want, I can promise you. "
Murong Chen immediately shouted upwards.
Within an hour, he would be dead.
He couldn't understand who it was that would appear in the imperial palace and even wantonly release such oppressive might! In recent years, the palace had seen many experts, including those above the Supreme Profound Realm. Could it be that this person was not afraid of alarming the palace guards, and was eventually surrounded and killed?
No matter who it was, if he showed up, he would make the guards kill him!
Time slowly passed.
The pressure still didn't stop. He gradually became delirious and his eyes became blurry.
Du Xiawei had already fainted.
The air was filled with the smell of blood.
In a trance, someone pushed open the door and walked in step by step. It was a woman. Her figure was graceful and every step she took was very light. It was as if she was walking on clouds, approaching step by step.
Murong Chen gradually regained consciousness, and looked at the young lady who was walking closer with a lost look. She did not know why, but the lady in front of him seemed to be somewhat familiar, as if she had met her a long time ago.
How long ago?
Suddenly.
Murong Chen, who was still in a daze a moment ago, instantly became clear-headed. His entire body was stiff as he looked at the person in front of him. Hadn't she settled everything last time she came back?
He looked at Xiao Qianhan in shock, but was unable to say a single word, and could only stare blankly at Xiao Qianhan. Compared to the previous time he had seen Xiao Qianhan, his strength must be even more shocking now! He couldn't clearly see her strength, but from that terrifying pressure just now, she could tell that it would be difficult to kill her even if all the experts in the palace joined forces.
Xiao Qianhan looked at Murong Chen with extreme calmness, then suddenly smiled slightly, looking at Murong Chen with a smile that was not a smile, her red lips slightly parted: "Murong Chen, you did not keep your promise."
Hearing that, Murong Chen turned pale from shock, and looked at Xiao Qianhan with an even more flustered expression, "We … "I …"
When Xiao Qianhan saw Murong Chen's flustered look, the smile on her face seemed to become even wider. She reached out to stop Murong Chen from speaking any further, and said with a smile: "Don't be too flustered."
Murong Chen looked at Xiao Qianhan in disbelief. What did she mean? Wasn't she here for Ran Ke? Thinking about Ran Ke, his heart felt weak.
"I came here to find out two things. First, why did you break your promise? Second, do you feel carefree after seeing Ran Ke suffering? Slow down, long night slowly, I have patience and time to listen to you slowly. You don't have to be afraid of alarming the others either. There's already a spirit formation and a spirit formation set up around us. " Xiao Qianhan's voice was very gentle, and even her attitude was extremely gentle.
Murong Chen pursed her lips, and the fear in her heart towards Xiao Qianhan grew even more intense. It was just like back then when he was saved by her, she also had to look up to her and rely on her to obtain the throne. He was well aware of her methods, and would definitely not show mercy.
After waiting for a moment.
He was very clear that he could not hide tonight, and he had to say what he did not want to say, "I have never thought of breaking my promise, but as time passed, the original relationship between Ran Ke and I gradually disappeared. Every time I see her, I feel bored from the bottom of my heart, but I have never tried to hurt her. She is still a queen, and no one can take away her throne. Thus, I am not breaking my promise. Ran Ke is currently severely ill in bed, and I have not taken a single glance at her. This is indeed my fault. However, the moment I see her, I will feel uncontrollable anger and disgust. Thus, I can only stay away from her. Xiao Qianhan, if you had experienced the same thing as me, you would understand how I feel right now. "
Listening to Murong Chen's dignified and unerring explanation, Xiao Qianhan's eyes grew darker and darker, the smile at the corner of her lips became more and more beautiful.
"That's a good explanation." Xiao Qianhan nodded.
Even though Xiao Qianhan nodded her head, Murong Chen still panicked. He took a deep breath and said solemnly: "I know that there's been some injustice being done to Ran Ke recently, and this is my fault. I can guarantee that it will be better for her in the future."
Xiao Qianhan suddenly shook his head, "Do you think I would trust a person who doesn't even keep his promise? Murong Chen, after being the emperor for a few years, you have indeed made me look at you in a new light. " In the position of Emperor, when faced with the flattery of the crowd, his change wasn't surprising. She had heard the conversation between him and Du Xiawei from the rooftop just now and completely understood why Murong Chen had changed today.
Why did he lose all his love for Ran Ke overnight. Because of Murong Chen's inborn inferiority complex, when he saw Ran Ke, it was as if he saw the unbearable past that he once had, which was a fatal taunt to him, who was now enjoying the respect and kowtowing of everyone. Although he loved Ran Ke, as time went by, his feelings for him gradually disappeared. Perhaps he was blinded by vanity, and the more cruel he became to those he loved the most.
What he just said...
It was all bullshit!
"It's not like that. What I said just now is all true." Murong Chen's face was pale white. He tried her best to explain, wanting Xiao Qianhan to believe him.
Xiao Qianhan nodded lightly, "It's all true... "Bullshit."
The scene before his eyes was something Murong Chen had never thought of before, because he would never see Xiao Qianhan again in his entire life, just like how he gradually grew more and more unwilling to see Ran Ke. That day, when he witnessed Du Xiawei's gentleness, he felt even more that Ran Ke was not worthy of his love. Actually, it was Ran Ke who did not deserve him!
"Xiao Qianhan, why aren't you fair?" Murong Chen asked.
Hearing this, Xiao Qianhan could not help but chuckle, "You think too highly of yourself. Without Ran Ke, you are nothing. If not for Ran Ke, I would definitely not allow you to reach the position of the Kingdom of Zi Yue Emperor. "You want to be fair to me, are you worthy?"
Murong Chen's face changed greatly.
The unconscious Du Xiawei coughed a few times before waking up. She looked around in a daze.
The moment she saw Murong Chen, she immediately shouted, "Your Majesty, what happened just now?"
Suddenly, she saw Xiao Qianhan. The woman she had never seen before, who was not a concubine of the harem, pointed at him in shock. "Who are you? Why was it here? Don't you know this is the Eternal Music Palace? "How dare you!"
The expression in Xiao Qianhan's eyes dimmed slightly as her gaze swept towards Du Xiawei. Then, he asked with a smile, "I know this is the Eternal Music Palace."
"Who are you? Someone! Someone come quickly! " Du Xiawei shouted a few times, but there was no response. It was terrifyingly quiet outside.
