“My vassal king, what on earth happened exactly, tell me what happened, say it!” The Vassal King Consort of An’nan felt like her heart was about to shatter.
She only had one pair of children, a son and daughter. Her elder son was away all year round, while her daughter was always around to please her parents. However, an inexplicable self-detonation ruined her daughter several years ago.
She had asked the old vassal king countless times as to what had happened, but he didn’t say anything at all.
Afterwards, her daughter was sent to the Ghost Faction for medical treatment. She had originally thought that her daughter would return this year no matter what.
Yet who knew that after waiting here and there, she would be met with seeing her child die before she did.
The anger in the Vassal King Consort of An’nan’s heart flared up, and she persistently pulled on the old vassal king, demanding to know what had happened.
The old vassal king didn’t utter a word from beginning to end, which made his consort circle around him anxiously.
“Why aren’t you saying anything! My daughter died so tragically, yet as her mother, I don’t even have the right to know the details?”
The Vassal King of An’nan looked at his consort and then let out a deep sigh. “I will send people to investigate this.”
“Is it related to that self-detonation several years ago?” The vassal king consort could not restrain her anger. “You’ve been unwilling to tell me all this time why that person self-detonated! Tell me, is someone intentionally setting up my Hui’an!”
“My consort, it’s not that I can’t tell you, but it’s not beneficial to you at all if you do know.” The Vassal King of An’nan knew his consort too well. She was too used to having her own way and could not tolerate even a speck of dust in her eyes.
She was still so harsh to the non-threatening small concubines and their daughters in the rear court. Don’t even mention if she were to know that the self-detonation back then was completely a trouble that Hui’an provoked with her willfulness, which had caused the other person to retaliate.
Afterall, his consort had spoiled Hui’an from a tender age. If something were to happen, she would not find fault with herself and would certainly wholly blame the other person.
With his consort’s personality, even if she knew that the crown prince was also involved behind the scenes, she would definitely not take this lying down.
He understood His Highness as a person too well. Normally, he looked to be gentle and smiling and seemingly wouldn’t get angry, but once he wanted to act against you, it would absolutely not be as simple as killing you. He would definitely dig deeper to eradicate the roots completely.
Those years ago, if not because he had promptly withdrawn from the matter quickly enough and immediately sent Hui’an out of the capital… Hui’an would probably have then…
“My Wu Clan is not to be trifled with in Guanlan City. My vassal king, what exactly do you have misgivings about? Why don’t you say it!” The vassal king consort questioned angrily.
“During this period, the Duan Clan has been selecting noble daughters for their third branch’s second son. If you have time, bring several girls over to the Duan Clan for a visit.” The old vassal king recollected himself and stood up, walking out the door after speaking these words.
The Vassal King Consort of An’nan, Wu Hongmo, looked on coldly as the vassal king walked out, then said through gritted teeth, “You think I won’t be able to track anything down if you don’t tell me?”
“Hui’an, rest assured. Mother will definitely avenge and wipe out this humiliation for you! Mother will have the bones of the entire family of whoever hurt you ground into scattering dust!”
In eternal damnation—
—-My Qiao’s section break—-
After a day and a half of competing, the top 20 had been decided.
The Three Sects and Five Factions each had disciples in the running.
However, the Ghost Faction was the most wretched out of all of them.
Among the Three Sects, the Holy Water Sect and the Heavenly Dao Sect each had four qualifying disciples.
The Daybreak Sect had three people, the Violet Firmament Faction had four people, while the Omni Faction and the Myriad Faction each had two people. Only the Ghost Faction was the most pitiful, with just Peng Zhang as the only qualifying person.
Furthermore, throughout all of Peng Zhang’s battles, his level-10 mystic beast, the thousand-faced venomous spider, had bitten many of the disciples, causing Qiao Mu to be constantly busy in detoxifying the poison.
It really was infuriating, causing her to have to save people during her short breaks when she was watching others battle.
Peng Zhang had made many enemies at the moment. Even the other people who were also from the Five Factions were gritting their teeth in anger at him.
