Evil Emperor’s Wild Consort 1439 The Three Great Forces 3

Gu Ruoyun stroked her chin as her eyes flickered. "If I could get the Moon Soul Herb from this contest, there's nothing wrong in trying. Fourth Prince, shall we journey towards the Heavenly Moon Empire now?"

"Alright."

Zuo Shangchen's face lit up with a smile. His eyes were filled with warmth as he stared at Gu Ruoyun. At that moment, Gu Shengxiao's face appeared within his mind's eye and a distant look appeared in his gaze. 

Shengxiao, I'll help Xiao Yun'er to obtain the Moon Soul Herb, no matter what.

Only then will I be able to save you!

The man's indolent, peach blossom eyes filled with determination as he thought of this. His seductive features no longer displayed his initially coquettish air.

...

The Heavenly Moon Empire, at the Regional King's Mansion.

A man was standing with his hands behind his back in a luxurious and s.p.a.cious bedchamber with his back against a tightly closed door. His eyes held a sense of reverence as an infirm voice rang out in the quiet room.

"Su Ran, do you understand my order? That woman, Gu Ruoyun, already arrived in the Dark Earth Realm! I want you to take her Ancient Divine PaG.o.da, no matter the price!"

If Gu Ruoyun had been here, she would immediately have recognized the voice as belonging to the man who had previously addressed himself as 'this Holy One'. He was also Zixie and Qianbei Ye's enemy and the man who had caused Zixie's downfall! Unfortunately, she was not present and was not aware of the relations.h.i.+p between that man and the Regional King of the Heavenly Moon Empire.

"This subordinate understands!"

The Regional King joined his fists as his eyes filled with reverence, "Do I have to kill that woman?"

The Regional King made a slicing motion as he spoke.

The voice was silent for several seconds before it continued to speak, "No! My goal is only to obtain the Ancient Divine PaG.o.da. As for Gu Ruoyun, she can't die now. If she dies, I'll lose my means to threaten Qianbei Ye! If Qianbei Ye's powers are restored too quickly and I cannot emerge from this seal, I won't be able to kill him in a time like this. His only weakness is Gu Ruoyun!"

The voice paused for another moment. "As long as Gu Ruoyun is still alive, his weakness still exists. If Gu Ruoyun dies, that fellow's body will have no weaknesses at all! If it turns out this way, that fellow would be very difficult to defeat. It's a good thing that my seal will be broken soon. Once I return to freedom, their doom shall arrive!"

Does he not want to kill Gu Ruoyun?

No!

He wants to kill her more than anyone else!

Be it Qianbei Ye or her, both of them must die!

Unfortunately, he understood that if Gu Ruoyun were to die now, Qianbei Ye would fly into insanity. Once he has flown into an insane rage, he would become even more difficult to defeat! If he could kidnap Gu Ruoyun and use her to threaten Qianbei Ye, regardless of how powerful Qianbei Ye was, he would have to kneel before him!

"Su Ran, your duty is solely to take the Ancient Divine PaG.o.da away and kill the Divine Beast that guards the Ancient Divine PaG.o.da, Zixie! As long as that disgusting Zixie exists, I will never be able to control the Ancient Divine PaG.o.da completely! I don't care whether you use secret plots or an obvious ploy, you must bring the Ancient Divine PaG.o.da to me! Besides, let me give you a piece of advice. That woman, Gu Ruoyun, is a lunatic too. If you don't kill her, even if you shut her away, she would still find a way to grow! Furthermore, she would have her revenge over you one day!"

The voice paused once again. "However, she simply cannot die now! You must use your best plans to defeat her! You can also use the Imperial household of the Heavenly Moon Empire's might! As for the details of the plan, figure it out yourself! Three months. I'll give you three month's time. I must see the Ancient Divine PaG.o.da in three months or, when I break this seal, the first person I will kill is you!"
