The young emperor said lightly.

Not long after the words fell, the crystalline light burst out suddenly.

The originally slow-moving black liquid made a hissing sound, and countless linear black tentacles boiled up, like boiling water.

At the same time, a little bit of black liquid appeared in the crystal body out of thin air...

Then condense in the ebony box on the jade platform.

-

The back mountain of Fayue Temple.

"What's going on, why are the 'things beyond the sky' decreasing!"

Seeing the 'things beyond the sky' gradually becoming scarce in the iron box, everyone present was stunned, especially Ji Wuming.

He frantically tugged at his daughter's little hand to touch it, but there was no response.

"Why is that?"

The black liquid under Chen Mu's skin sensed something instead, and became quiet.

When the "thing beyond the sky" was about to disappear, a trace of black liquid suddenly slipped out of the skin, passed through the barrier, and entangled with the only thing left in the box.

Then, it all disappeared.

-

Inside the altar.

Looking at the 'Things Beyond the Sky' who came back, the young emperor said indifferently: "Mother, is today's sacrificial ceremony complete?"

"What does His Majesty think?"

The empress dowager, who was so bright and incomparable, squinted her beautiful eyes, pulled her eyes back from 'things beyond the sky', and said lightly. "It's time to go to court today."

After saying that, he turned and left.

The young emperor clenched his fists tightly, and stared coldly at the queen mother's beautiful back with two flashing sharp eyes, and his handsome eyebrows looked ferocious.

He cursed something in a low voice, and left the altar chamber.

As the heavy stone door was slowly closed, the black liquid in the crystal was still beating wildly, like water splashed into a frying pan.

"Crack-"

After an unknown amount of time, there was a sound of crystal cracking in the secret room.

Chapter 208 The Empress Dowager Comes to Her Door! ([-]D update)

The greatest tragedy in life is that when you see hope, it turns out to be despair.

And this hope is still held in your hands under your desperate efforts, and it is about to be put into reality, but the result is still nothing.

Despair, loss, grief...

All the emotions leaked out from the bottom of my heart with the disappearance of "things beyond the sky", and finally condensed into a vast ocean.

Ji Wuming looked at the empty iron box, as if all his energy had been taken away, and he was in a state of depression.

"Now I finally understand why the Queen Mother and Your Majesty didn't move ahead of time."

Chen Mu sighed and laughed at himself. "Because 'things beyond the sky' cannot be taken away at all, and no one will be allowed to touch it."

Hei Ling was silent for a moment, and waved his hand to let Mingwei arrest Ji Wuming and Elder Qi.

In the presence of the other party's family members, Ji Wuming would not resist.

But Chen Mu stopped her, glanced at the four-year-old girl with a timid face, and said, "Don't arrest anyone in front of his daughter, find a carriage, and I will personally escort her."

"But……"

Hei Ling looked worried.

Chen Mu smiled and said, "Trust me, I have my own judgment, and by the way, I still have some things I want to ask them."

"Ok."

Hei Ling had no choice but to ask for a carriage.

But to be on the safe side, let Ming Wei guard the carriage, and put Mrs. Ji and the youngest daughter into another carriage by the way.

Inside the carriage, the atmosphere was silent.

Chen Mu, Ji Wuming, Elder Qi and Yun Zhiyue sat facing each other.

Yun Zhiyue kept staring at Elder Qi, but the latter had a calm expression, with a faint smile on his lips, as if he had no intention of talking to her.

"Let me tell you about your plan."

Chen Mu took out a stack of clues and information he had sorted out, and said to Ji Wuming, who was heartbroken:

"The reason why you died at the hands of the demon baby was because you faked your own death. The second reason was that you planned to let the Juntian Department of Zhenma Division kill the demon baby.

Because you know that the plan of Wu Shentong needs the demon baby, if it is not there, then he can only change the plan.

The same goes for Xu Wuqing.

You pretended to be Tian Laogen and sold your daughter to Xu Wuqing.Then they acted together with Ji Ping'er in a play, using Zhang Awei to kill Xu Wuqing.

In this way, even if Wu Shentong has doubts, at least on the surface he will not suspect that Tian Laogen is yours.

Once Xu Wuqing died, his plan could only be changed again.

What's more, Tian Xiaoyi has been secretly instigated by you, and Ji Ping'er is willing to help you. No matter how clever Wu Shentong is, it is impossible to predict everything. "

At this time, Elder Qi suddenly said: "Then tell me, why did we go to such lengths to kill Xu Wuqing in this way? Is it just to deceive Martial Arts?"

Chen Mu shook his head: "Of course not, although you and Martial Arts are not compatible, your goal is the same, that is 'things beyond the sky'.

After all, Xu Wuqing is the son of the right servant of the Ministry of Rites. If his death is too unexpected, it will definitely attract the attention of the court.

When the time comes, you will be shooting your own feet with stones.

So Xu Wuqing must die reasonably, and the person who killed him had better be related to me.Because you know my ability to handle cases.

As long as Zhang Awei kills Xu Wuqing, then as his brother, I will also be implicated.
