Chapter 455: 266. The Wu Family’s Imperial Decree

Translator: 549690339

In the Inferno Transfer Station.

A figure twitched as if he was sick.

Her delicate body rolled on the ground in pain.

Bang!

It rolled and crashed into a hard and thick stone pillar, making a muffled sound before coming to a stop.

Concubine Wu’s ten fingers tried hard to grab the edge of the dark gold Houtu mask and pull it out, but she could not pull it off. Even if her face was torn, there was still nothing she could do.

She had already tried many times.

Something seemed to be hidden in the mask, and it was absorbing her soul.

Sometimes, she could take off her mask, but when she woke up, the mask would inexplicably return to her face.

When this ” sucking sensation ” occurred, she could not take it off. Even if she tried her best to tear it off, she could not do it.

After a long time…

After a long time…

She was completely exhausted. She lay on the cold, black ground, covered in sweat. Her clothes were soaked, and part of them stuck to her snow-white skin, reflecting her graceful curves.

Concubine Wu sat up. She was only one level away from the peak of State 11 and could break free from the mortal’s Fate Wheel.

However, she was not happy at all.

The mask was one thing.

On the other hand, it was marriage.

Concubine Wu would never have thought that after completing the Hidden Lord’s mission, she would still need to go through a marriage alliance.

The first Hidden Lord had contributed to the family, but she had been busy with human affairs and delayed her breakthrough. Her current strength was not considered very high in the Wu family.

As for the marriage partner, it was chosen by the clansmen. It was a marriage between the clansmen to ensure the purity of the bloodline.

As for the reason for the marriage…

Rather than saying that it was a benefit, it was more like her face.

She was very beautiful, so beautiful that it could topple a country. There was no doubt about it.

The Wu family was different from the Su family. The Frost Monarch and the Eldest Princess were fighting for the position of the emperor’s teacher and the position of the family head.

The Wu family was not so complicated.

And before she stepped down from the position of the hidden monarch, she was once the mother of the Empress of Great Shang, and her fawning father had long chosen a partner for her in the family.

That person was the youngest son of the current clan leader, Wu Yizhi.

When she was the Hidden Lord, Wu Yizhi had once gone to the human world to ” train He was punished by her for being too stupid and lecherous. In the end, when he returned to the clan, he proposed this marriage alliance and wanted to take her in as his second wife.

Most importantly, his biological parents actually agreed.

They were already preparing for the wedding and sending out invitations…

To Concubine Wu, this was a complete humiliation.

But the clansmen didn’t think so.

“To be able to marry the young master of the clan leader, I really should be grateful. ”

“This is the greatest reward for her hard work.”ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novelenglish.net . Firᴇ(.)nᴇt

“Will she be unwilling?”

“How can this be? How is this possible? Could it be that she wanted to destroy the purity of the family bloodline? Or was he looking down on the clan leader? To be able to marry the Little Lord, even if it’s the second branch, it’s already lucky.”

‘ Concubine Wu’s parents have really put in a lot of effort. They are really worried about their daughter’s marriage. If she still doesn’t understand her parents ‘painstaking efforts, she is really hopeless. ”

Yes, it was.

If she did not attend the wedding happily, she would be disloyal and unfilial. She would not know what was good for her, she would not know how to be grateful, and she would look down on the family.

Rumors were terrifying, but what was even more terrifying was that you didn’t even know who the person who spoke was. It was as if the entire world was whispering in your ear with such malice.

At this moment, Concubine Wu suddenly felt the burden that had once weighed heavily on her younger brother…

She sighed softly as she felt the same way.

Several days later, she arrived at a high cliff.

At the end of the cliff was a tombstone.

Under the moonlight, the tombstone was pale and the inscription was engraved on it:

“Crown Prince Gu Chen’s tomb.”

Concubine Wu took off her dark gold Houtu mask and hung it on her waist. She took out three incense sticks and lit them. The incense curled up and scattered in the air.

All of this was her own choice, and it was also a sin she had committed.

But if she didn’t do it, what could she do?

Who wasn’t bound by fate?

Choice was a kind of happiness, but how many people could have it?

Or, he would follow his fate.

Or, he would be the one who hated ghosts.

All those who had spoken ill words before had been kidnapped by the same evil words before.

Aren’t most people like this?

Under the cold moon,

Wu Jijing stood there until the sandalwood incense burned out and burned her fingers, but she still didn’t notice it.

She took out a wine jar and a flagon.

Pa.

The dust on the wine jar was swept away. She grabbed the edge of the jar and poured the wine on the tombstone that was perhaps the most unworthy tombstone of her life.

The wine soaked the cliff and flowed along the uneven creases of the mountain rocks in the light.

It was blown away by the mountain wind, turning into a curtain of broken beads, letting out a soft sound of “drip drip drip” that could not be heard. Concubine Wu grabbed the wine jug and brought it to her lips.

When the wine entered his heart, it turned into tears.

“Do you still want to drink?” Laughter suddenly came from behind.

Wu Ji suddenly became alert. Her entire body tensed up like a female leopard. She rushed forward and immediately turned around. Her hand had already grabbed the handle of the Skeleton Saber.

However, when she saw who it was, she let go of the hilt of her sword again.

It was Xia Ji.

Xia Ji came from afar. ” I still have wine. Do you have a story? ”

Concubine Wu revealed a relaxed and worried expression. She laughed at herself, but at the same time, she let down her guard.

The person in front of her would not attack her.

If she attacked, she wouldn’t be able to defeat him, so there was no need to be vigilant.

“I didn’t expect you to come here again this year,” Xia Ji said as he walked up the cliff.

“Is your relationship with Big Brother so good? Why are you here to pay your respects?” Wu Ji asked.

Xia Ji didn’t mock her because she had her own guilt to suffer from her past sins. Instead, he said, “”What if I said I was waiting for you?”

He had seen Concubine Wu’s painful expression in the netherworld several years ago, and he knew that there was something wrong with the Houtu Mask. After escaping from the Golden Cicada’s Shell, he had come here to try his luck in order to carry out the follow-up plan. If he could not meet Concubine Wu, he would find another way.

However, they had coincidentally met.

“Is the dignified Black Emperor waiting for a woman like me?” Wu Ji asked.

“Yes,” Xia Ji replied.

Wu Ji fell silent.

Concubine Wu laughed at herself and asked,Then, how does the Black Emperor plan to use me? ”

Xia Ji glanced at her and took out two jars of fine wine. He handed one jar to Wu Ji and opened the other jar himself.

Concubine Wu actually couldn’t drink much, but she made up her mind. She directly slapped open a jar and drank to her heart’s content.

“You’ve been in the aristocratic families for too long, so you’re treating yourself as a tool?” Xia Ji asked.

“Isn’t it?” Wu Ji asked back.

Xia Ji shook his head and said sincerely, ” No, no one is a tool. Everyone should have the right to choose. Whether it’s misery or happiness, at least there should be a chance to change, not destiny. ‘

Concubine Wu snorted lightly and did not argue. She continued drinking.

After drinking the entire jar, she tilted her head and got drunk. Her black hair was used as a pillow, and she rested her head on that beautiful face. Xia Ji sat beside her and covered her with a blanket. He then sat under Lonemoon’s cold stars and drank alone.

unknown dawn, Wu Ji moaned and woke up. She looked at the blanket and the man beside her and rubbed her eyebrows. “You’re still…”

“Tell me,” Xia Ji said gently.

“You’re really different from before,” said Concubine Wu. If I had Imown that you could be so powerful, I would have bought you candied haws every day and be a good sister.”

Xia Ji smiled.

Concubine Wu inexplicably felt a little relieved. She then slowly said, “Two things. First, you said that there was something wrong with the mask. The Wu family didn’t give me this mask with good intentions. Second, my family wants me to marry someone I don’t like. Nothing else.”

” I can help you solve it, ” Xia Ji said. ” But what happens after that? ” It seems that you can’t stay in the Wu family anymore.”

“Do I have a choice?”

“Yes, but are you ready to stand against the aristocratic families?”

“Xia Ji, you…You’re not lying to me?”

“I’m not lying to you.”

Concubine Wu hesitated for a long time before she suddenly sighed and said,”lf I die, burn me into ashes and bury me next to my brother. I’ve let him down, but at least I can be thick-skinned to see him in hell and apologize.”

“You won’t die.” “What if…

“I promise you.”

“Thank you.” Wu Ji heaved a sigh of relief.

If a person knew where they would be buried after death, they would feel at

She lay in the blanket, her cheeks still red. She looked up at the dark sky and asked, “”Then what can I do for you?”

Xia Ji then took out three items from his bosom. ”

The Land of Extremis Order, the Strange Sea Ancient Scroll, the Emperor’s Order.

“How do I use these things?”

“You…” Wu Ji’s eyes widened.

However, the next moment, she remembered the news that the Headmaster had died in the Tribulation Land and immediately understood.

Many years ago, the Headmaster had won against the Ghost Emperor at the Wangjiang Tower. Now, the three items had fallen into the hands of the Black Emperor. The world was really unpredictable.

She felt a little regretful. After all, who wouldn’t feel sorry for the fall of a saint like the Headmaster?

At the same time, she was even more shocked by Xia Ji’s strength.

“Concubine Wu?”

“Yes…”

She reacted and looked at the imperial token with a complicated gaze before she began to speak.

Dawn…

He had arrived.

The grey mountain fog turned into burning golden flames, drowning the two figures who were having a secret discussion.

“Restrain the flames.

“Use feathers as legs.”

“How can there be such long legs? They’re almost flying into the sky, okay?”

Xia Ji was instructing a little phoenix on how to stand upright.

Azurite controlled the flames, shortened her tail, and wrapped herself in a white-gold robe that covered the floor. Her bird head looked left and right in her hood uneasily.

Xia Ji put on a mask and looked like a human.

“Nervous,” Azurite said nervously.

Don’t you want to see the human world? ” Xia Ji smiled. ” I’ll bring you there. ”

“I’m still nervous…” Liu Li said.

” I don’t think you should be nervous, ” Xia Ji said. ” Alright? ”

An Abyssal Boss disguised as a human and ran into the middle of the humans. Who should be nervous?

“What a strange feeling.”

As he spoke, many phoenix feathers spread out from the platinum robe like tentacles before collapsing.

Instantly, the short figure became even shorter, reaching Xia Ji’s knees.

“How about this?” Liu Li asked.

“You’ll be very conspicuous if you’re so short,” Xia Ji said.

“But I can pretend to be a child,” Liu Li said.

“Families usually don’t bring children to their wedding banquets,” Xia Ji said.

Azurite controlled its feathers and once again raised itself to a height of 1.7 meters. It seemed to have a natural understanding of human behavior. Under Xia Ji’s training, it quickly became like a normal person. It could walk, run, jump, and even jump without falling.

Liu Li said, “You humans can still change into two forms…” If only I could transform too.”

It still remembered Feng Nanbei from before.

“When is the Wu family’s wedding?” it asked after thinking for a while.

“Three days later,” Xia Ji said..
