The Future Empress Is Given Death At The Beginning, And I Become Stronger When I Am Stupid.

The old man listened and couldn't help but furrow his brows:

"Your Majesty, Great Qin is currently in turmoil. It may not be appropriate for you to go there rashly."

Jie Hongyi nodded lightly, not acting stubbornly: "What the elder said is true. I only have such a thought. Unless it is absolutely necessary, I will not take risks recklessly."

The old man then nodded in relief: "Your Majesty is thoughtful and cautious. I was just being overly concerned."

Jie Hongyi smiled slightly and bid farewell: "Thank you for your hard work, elder. I will take my leave."

The old man gently brushed off the dust and calmly wiped away the bloodstains, saying lightly: "Your Majesty, take care of everything. Old Hu will not see you off."

Jie Hongyi bowed slightly, then gracefully left with light steps.

The old man stood quietly in place, holding the dust brush, his eyes slightly closed. His face was calm and detached, like a transcendent immortal, as if he was not the one who had just coughed up blood.

After Jie Hongyi had left for a long time, his figure completely disappeared behind the tower.

The old man's calm and detached expression suddenly twitched, and he instantly gritted his teeth, his limbs twitching uncontrollably. He shouted uncontrollably:

"Damn it!!"

"Ow ow ow! It hurts so much!"

The old man's originally somewhat rosy face instantly turned pale, and fresh crimson blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth. His breath became extremely weak.

He instantly collapsed to the ground, trembling in pain, his mouth crooked and his eyes askew. He kept gasping for cold air, looking as if his soul was about to shatter.

"Ouch... it hurts, it hurts so much! Damn it!"

The old man cried out in pain, but in just a moment, he was already drenched in sweat, his face terrifyingly pale. His lips trembled as if he could fly away at any moment.

He dared not be negligent, nor hesitate. He quickly sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes tightly, and circulated his energy to adjust his breath.

After a period of adjustment, he finally regained some vitality.

The old man raised his head, his face filled with a strong sense of fear.

"Goodness, what kind of existence is that mysterious divination... to actually cause me such injuries... it's terrifying, something I can't resist at all..."

"Even the Great Emperor wouldn't possess such terrifying power... could it be an immortal from the Immortal World?"

The old man muttered to himself. His originally bright and sharp eyes were now clouded, and his face was filled with lingering fear.

His apparent recovery just now was all forced.

On one hand, he didn't want to worry Jie Hongyi, and on the other hand, he couldn't bear to lose face.

He, the Heavenly Mechanism Master, who was known for his ability to calculate the past and present, had actually coughed up three liters of blood because of a divination. It was already a great humiliation.

If he were to roll on the ground in pain, he would be even more ashamed to face others.

When he was divining, he felt as if his soul had been kicked hard by a giant foot!

His soul was almost kicked away!

The pain that penetrated his soul almost killed him.

The Heavenly Mechanism Master didn't say that he was kicked away, but instead used different words to say that he couldn't perceive it.

He really couldn't face it!

"So terrifying! So terrifying!"

The old man shrank his neck, his face becoming even paler, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans kept falling.

He couldn't help but hold his hands, feeling how weak and helpless he was.

"Heavenly River Domain... no, perhaps the whole world is about to change..."

The old man straightened his body and limped back to the tower, his faint sigh fading away with the wind.

...

Great Qin.

Inside the magnificent and resplendent imperial palace, the atmosphere was grand and diverse.

Qin Mu was dressed in a loose dragon robe, lazily lying on a soft couch, enjoying the intimate service of Yun Yan'er, Hong Luan, Zi Yuan, Qing Qing, and others.

Suddenly, he furrowed his brows and abruptly opened his eyes, a sharp cold light flickering in them.

Yun Yan'er was startled by his sudden movement, almost losing her grip on the tea cup in her hand.

She raised her head, a look of confusion flashing in her bright eyes, and cautiously asked, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"

Qin Mu glanced at her and said lightly, "Nothing, just had a realization."

Then he closed his eyes again.

Yun Yan'er carefully placed the tea cup on the table and gently massaged Qin Mu's shoulders.

Meanwhile, Qin Mu was having a conversation with the system.

"System, what just happened?" Qin Mu asked in his mind.

He had suddenly felt a palpitation, as if someone was prying into his thoughts, but it quickly disappeared without a trace, as if the system had kicked it away.

Yes, kicked it away.

Qin Mu could clearly feel the system manifesting a big foot and kicking away that faint sense of intrusion.

The precision of it would make the national football team exclaim that it was impossible!

"Yes, host, there was an old bastard who attempted to pry into the greatness of the host, but the system kicked him away and gave him a small punishment," the emotionless voice of the system echoed in Qin Mu's mind.

Qin Mu nodded in satisfaction and gave a thumbs up. "Well done!"

"Maintaining the host's privacy and safety is the responsibility of the system, so the host can rest assured," the system replied.

"Then do you know who that old bastard was?" Qin Mu asked again.

"Ash Moon Dynasty's Tian Ji Zi," the system's response was simple and straightforward, revealing the secret.

Qin Mu was slightly stunned upon hearing this, then sneered, "So it's Ash Moon Dynasty, it must be related to Ash Moon Empress."

Qin Mu's mind fell into contemplation.

Clearly, Ash Moon Empress was attempting to obtain information about Great Qin through divination.

This indicated that Ash Moon and Heavenly Essence were bound to take action.

"It's finally starting... Before taking action, they have to divine first. They are indeed cautious," Qin Mu shook his head and chuckled.

He was becoming more and more interested in Jie Hongyi.

"I wonder if Jie Qianxue has been suspected. If she hasn't been exposed, we should receive news soon..." Qin Mu was thinking this when a crisp voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Daddy, why aren't Hong Luan and Ning Shuang wearing clothes? What are they doing?"

...

PS: Thank you all for your support. I've made it into the top 100, but I'm currently stuck at 100th place and could drop out at any moment (cries). I hope everyone can continue to support me a little more. You don't have to spend too much, as long as the free gifts are enough to keep me in the top 100.

Of course, it's up to you, big shots!

Some readers may know that I've been going to the hospital every few months for the past two months. I went a few days ago and I have to go for a follow-up today, so I'll release a chapter first and make up for it later tonight, including the chapter for reaching the gift value milestone. I won't miss a single chapter, even if I have to write until three or four in the morning.

This is the appointment registration from a few days ago.

This is today's appointment registration, at three in the afternoon.

I wanted to explain the situation in advance so that I won't be questioned if I can't write before twelve o'clock today... Going to the hospital really takes up a lot of time and money, it's a headache...

Finally, I wish all the big shots, including their families, good health and to stay away from hospitals!

(First of all, I want to clarify that it's not that kind of problem!)
