Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

#2924 - Blood Sacrifice in East Xinjiang

That afternoon, Jun Wuxie secretly contacted Jinse, telling her that he would not be returning to the Qin King's Mansion for the time being and asked her to inform Qin Keqing.

Jinse naturally knew what he was doing in the palace, but she still had quite a few grievances in her heart.

Wherever her junior brother went, he was surrounded by blossoming peach blossoms.

She found Qin Keqing and relayed Jun Wuxie's message.

Qin Keqing asked about the reason, and Jinse told her the truth.

After listening, Qin Keqing remained silent for a long while.

She felt a little unhappy in her heart.

Although she had not regained her memory, her relationship with Jun Shen was real.

She was Jun Shen's wife, but now Jun Shen was in the palace with another woman.

In the following days, the two would be together day and night.

Thinking of all the scenes, she felt a little uncomfortable.

"Is junior sister-in-law jealous?"

Jinse noticed the subtle changes in her expression and couldn't help but tease.

"Senior sister, don't make fun of me. Aren't you jealous too?"

Qin Keqing did not deny that she was jealous. After all, she was his wife. Although she didn't remember the past, she couldn't deny the fact, so there was always a trace of possessiveness in her heart.

"Me?"

Jinse was slightly stunned, and smiled: "Why would senior sister be jealous? He is my junior brother, not my husband. It's not senior sister's turn to be jealous."

Upon hearing this, Qin Keqing had a strange look in her eyes, and said: "Senior sister, don't deceive yourself.

Although Jun Shen is your junior brother, in your heart, you don't just treat him as a junior brother…"

"Junior sister-in-law, what are you saying? If I don't treat him as a junior brother, what else could I treat him as?"

"Of course, as a man! Senior sister also regards Jun Shen as her own man in her heart!"

Qin Keqing's words were very straightforward.

Through these days of observation, she had long seen that something was wrong.

However, whether it was senior sister or Jun Shen, they both said that they were senior-junior sister relationship.

But the way they interacted was not the way senior and junior sisters interacted.

Which senior sister would run to her junior brother's bed, and in front of Jun Shen, senior sister was as obedient as a little lamb.

She didn't look like a senior sister at all, but more like a little woman conquered by Jun Shen.

"This…"

Jinse did not expect Qin Keqing to say this, nor did she expect her to view the relationship between herself and her junior brother in this way.

Her face gradually turned a little red, and she said: "Junior sister-in-law, you may have misunderstood. You can't say such things casually. If junior brother finds out, he will be unhappy.

Over the years, junior brother has given me enough. I won't ask for anything else. I don't have that kind of thought in my heart…"

Qin Keqing looked at Jinse with some surprise.

In her logic, she felt that senior sister's psychology was very strange.

If she didn't have that kind of thought, why would she be willing to share a bed with him?

Although they only slept in the same bed and did not do anything out of line, for a woman, this was also a matter of damaging her reputation.

"Senior sister may not have that kind of thought, but senior sister cannot stop the deepest longing in her heart.

Therefore, all of senior sister's words and actions in front of Jun Shen are like a gentle and considerate wife, rather than a fellow senior sister."

"My heart… is that really so?"

At this moment, Jinse was also a little unsure.

She knew that her feelings for her junior brother were very special, and she had a strong spiritual dependence.

But she had never thought about it in terms of romantic love.

She only felt that her junior brother was the only man who had entered the depths of her heart, and he was also the person who had saved her heart and destiny, holding an unshakable position in her life.

Sometimes, Emperor Realm experts can also be trapped by their own hearts due to certain special reasons.

"I don't know what kind of experiences senior sister has had that would make her feel that even if she and Jun Shen are senior and junior sisters, they can still be so intimate…"

Speaking of this, Qin Keqing looked at Jinse with a very serious gaze, "Senior sister, I have a question to ask you…"

"Junior sister-in-law, please speak."

Qin Keqing's face was slightly red, "If, I mean if, Jun Shen wanted your body, would you give it to him?"

"If junior brother wants it, I will naturally be willing to give it. As long as it is junior brother, anything is fine…"

She responded to Qin Keqing almost without hesitation, subconsciously.

"Then senior sister, do you still think that your feelings for Jun Shen are not romantic love?"

Qin Keqing was very surprised in her heart. This topic was very shy for a woman, but senior sister answered so naturally, as if it were a matter of course.

"Why does it have to be romantic love to give him my body?

Rather than having him be my husband, I would rather have him be my junior brother, my one and only junior brother.

My relationship with him will only be that of senior and junior sisters, but I am willing to do anything for him, including giving him my body. No matter what he wants to do to me, I will gladly accept it. In my eyes, he can take whatever he wants."

"Senior sister…"

Qin Keqing's red lips trembled, wanting to say something but stopping, and she didn't know how to respond.

At this time, she felt that her mind was a little overwhelmed.

What kind of special feelings did senior sister have for Jun Shen?

Logically speaking, she was willing to go to such an extent, willing to let Jun Shen control everything about her, but she only wanted to be senior and junior sisters with Jun Shen, not husband and wife?

At this moment, Qin Keqing became deeply curious about what had happened between Jun Shen and Senior Sister Jinse.

She knew how strong Jinse's state of mind was.

But it was such a woman with a strong state of mind who was obsessed with such an illogical relationship.

There must be special experiences, or perhaps those special experiences shaped her unique state of mind and emotional logic.

"Whether it's a wife or a senior sister, in Keqing's heart, I regard senior sister as my own sister.

Today, I am saying these things to you because I don't want to face your complicated relationship.

Now that senior sister has spoken frankly, I feel relieved.

I will be jealous of the Eldest Princess, but I will not be jealous of senior sister.

After all, the Eldest Princess has never had any interaction with Jun Shen before, but senior sister is different.

The little bit of possessiveness in my heart will not be imposed on senior sister."

"Junior sister, you should still call me senior sister."

"Okay, senior sister."

Qin Keqing responded with a smile, agreeing in words, but still calling her senior sister.

Jinse was speechless for a while, and could only let her do as she pleased.

What she called herself was not that important.

In the next few days, Jun Wuxie stayed in the Yaohua Palace, chatting and laughing with the Eldest Princess all day long.

The spies arranged by Emperor Liang could not escape Liang Wan'er's eyes in the palace.

"These past two days, Liang Buqun's imperial study has been tightly closed, and he has not summoned any court officials. He has not attended court for two consecutive days.

The eunuch beside him said that he has been busy cultivating these past few days and needs to take a break from court for a few days.

But I don't think things are that simple.

However, my people cannot get close. Chief Eunuch Qian is an expert, at the late stage of the Chaos Realm."

"I estimate that Emperor Liang should no longer be in the palace.

In such a sensitive period, how could he suddenly spend his time on cultivation?

Unless he has obtained special resources that can help him break through."

"Why does Young Master say that Liang Buqun has left the palace?

What is he doing out of the palace? It doesn't seem to help him control the situation, does it?"

"Didn't the Eldest Princess say that Emperor Liang has made at least two preparations?

Leaving the palace is one of his preparations. Detailed information is not yet available."

There was a hint of doubt on Liang Wan'er's face, and she still didn't quite understand.

"Emperor Liang has a mysterious force behind him. This is the information I can currently confirm.

But what exactly is the origin of that mysterious force is unknown and has not been investigated.

Emperor Liang has already colluded with them, or rather, to deal with me, he has accepted certain conditions from the mysterious force."

"I see…"

Liang Wan'er was shocked in her heart. She had arranged many eyes in the palace, always watching her imperial brother, but she never thought that he had a mysterious force behind him.

"No wonder I have had a bad premonition in my heart these past few days.

Now, what I am most worried about is whether Liang Buqun's collusion with the mysterious force will bring any bad consequences to the Great Liang Dynasty.

Alas, Young Master did not mention this matter to me some time ago.

It seems that Young Master did not trust me enough at that time…"

"Eldest Princess, don't think too much. It's not that I don't trust you.

I just felt that there was little information available, and it wasn't that important whether I said it or not.

These days, I see that the Eldest Princess is worried, so I am telling you this news.

Since I have chosen the Eldest Princess, I will naturally have at least a minimum of trust in you.

Even if the Eldest Princess betrays me, it will not change the future outcome."

His words were extremely confident.

"Young Master, since I have made a choice, I will never waver in the slightest. I will definitely be completely on your side."

So a few more days passed.

Suddenly one day, Emperor Liang began to attend court early.

It seemed that, just as the chief eunuch had said, he had taken a break from court these days to cultivate.

Emperor Liang didn't seem to have changed much, and was still the same as before.

It's just that there was a little more smile on his face, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

He came back and listened to the reports from the people who were paying attention to the Yaohua Palace, and he felt more and more that the future was stable.

That Yuan Chu really had fallen into his imperial sister's gentle embrace and could not extricate himself.

Ever since he entered the Yaohua Palace that day, he had been with his imperial sister every day, never leaving for a moment.

In less than ten days, the two of them had become so inseparable.

"Yuan Chu in this state is what I want.

If he is addicted to the gentle embrace, he will have less energy to think about other things.

He is also in the most unprepared state.

In his opinion, the matter of the Qin King's Mansion can be resolved here."

"Yuan Chu, you are still too young. You must know that ginger is spicier when it's old.

When I was strategizing, you weren't even born yet.

Give me some more time, and I will send you to the afterlife, once and for all, to completely eliminate this threat of yours!"

The Liang Emperor pondered to himself.

"Your Majesty, news from the Eastern Frontier."

A shadow entered the Imperial Study.

"Present it."

The Liang Emperor reached out, and the jade scroll in the shadow's hand flew into his grasp.

He delved into it with his divine sense, acquiring the information within, the smile on his face growing increasingly intense.

"Very good, Chi Ren is already executing the plan.

Where is the Vice Commander of the Secret Guards!"

"Your subject is here, what are your orders, Your Majesty!"

A dark figure with a powerful aura appeared out of thin air.

"Personally make a trip to the Eastern Frontier. Before the Champion Marquis's goal is achieved, cut off news from the Eastern Frontier.

Under no circumstances are you to allow the Eastern Frontier Governor's people to escape from the Eastern Frontier.

Also, intercept and kill anyone who intends to come to the Imperial City, do not let a single one slip through!"

"Your subject obeys!"

The Vice Commander of the Secret Guards hurriedly departed, disappearing without a trace.

… …

Several days later, outside the Imperial City, a blood-soaked figure rushed towards the city gate.

The armor on his body was shattered, he was covered in wounds, and in some places, bones could be seen clearly. His hair was congealed with blood.

Behind him, two figures were closely pursuing him.

The soldiers guarding the city saw this scene and hurriedly stepped forward.

"Who are you, and why are you in such a state?"

They could tell that the armor on this bloody man was clearly the armor used by the imperial army.

"I am the Captain of the Guard of the Eastern Frontier Governor. Quickly help me stop them, I have important matters to report to Prince Qin's residence!"

After the man finished speaking, he was about to leave, but a junior officer guarding the city stopped him.

"Get out of the way, there's no time!"

A terrifying aura suddenly erupted from the man's body, and the fire of blood essence ignited on his body, startling the junior officer who had stopped him.

He was shaken away, watching helplessly as the bloody man rushed into the city.

When he reacted and was about to pursue, the people chasing him arrived.

A flash of saber light, even in broad daylight, was dazzlingly bright, piercing through the air. Half of the soldiers who intercepted with spears were killed on the spot.

"Bastards, how dare you run wild in the Imperial City!"

The officer, with a few squad leaders, rushed up with spears, but were sent flying by the pursuers' war sabers, crashing into the city wall and spitting out a large mouthful of blood.

"Bold maniacs, are you trying to rebel!"

A general on the city wall witnessed this scene, and while going down to provide support, he ordered the soldiers on the city wall to turn the rune crossbows and lock onto the two pursuers.

The two men didn't say anything, their attacks were ruthless and merciless, almost splitting the rescuing general in half with one saber strike.

If it weren't for the armor mitigating the damage, this saber strike would have been enough to take his life.

Even so, he was left with a deep saber wound on his body that exposed the bone.

"Clang!"

Another pursuer waved his saber and deflected the rune crossbow bolt that was shot at him.

The two men rushed into the city.

"Close the city gate, you guys follow me, capture and kill the bandits!"

But by the time they chased after them, the figures of the two pursuers were no longer to be seen on the street.

Thinking that the person being chased said he was going to Prince Qin's residence, the pursuers must have also chased in the direction of Prince Qin's residence.

… …

Not long after, the Captain of the Guard of the Eastern Frontier Governor had already rushed to the entrance of Prince Qin's residence.

The pursuers behind him also chased to the entrance of the Prince's residence.

Just as they were about to attack him, Qin Yu, sensing the murderous intent, rushed out with people.

Furthermore, a large number of people were alarmed.

"Go!"

The two pursuers gritted their teeth, knowing that the situation was hopeless, turned around and ran, disappearing into the alley.

"Chase them, we need them alive!"

Qin Keqing secretly transmitted her voice from the entrance of the residence.

Immediately, the experts that Prince Qin had sent back to protect her chased after them.

"Princess… Princess…"

The Captain of the Guard of the Eastern Frontier Governor was helped into the Prince's residence. Seeing Qin Keqing, he opened his mouth, and a large amount of blood gushed out.

"Don't speak yet, stabilizing your injuries is the most important thing. You are safe now."

Qin Keqing realized the seriousness of the matter.

For the Captain of the Guard of the Eastern Frontier Governor to appear here in such a state, something big must have happened!

"No… I don't have much time… Princess… Princess… Save… Save the ten billion citizens of the Eastern Frontier…"

"What happened to the Eastern Frontier?"

Qin Keqing's heart sank.

"Blood… Blood…"

The blood in the guard captain's mouth gushed out even more violently, and the light of blood essence on his body quickly extinguished.

He reached out with his blood-covered fingers, using his last strength, and crookedly wrote a few words on the ground—Blood Sacrifice Eastern Frontier.

Before the last word was finished, the Captain of the Guard of the Eastern Frontier Governor breathed his last.

Blood Sacrifice Eastern Frontier!

Four words, shocking and deeply impacting Qin Keqing, impacting Qin Yu and everyone present.

"Princess, this Blood Sacrifice Eastern Frontier, could it be…

But this matter is really unbelievable.

The Eastern Frontier has the Governor's army, and the Champion Marquis leading twenty million brave soldiers, how could such a shocking thing happen!"

"This matter is of great importance, Qin Yu, you take his body and accompany this princess to the palace to meet the Emperor!"

After Qin Keqing finished speaking, she started to walk.

Qin Yu had people carry the corpse behind her.

On the way to the palace, Qin Keqing secretly contacted Jun Wuxie and informed him of the news.
