Chapter 222 Losing the wife and losing the soldiers

On the mountains not far from the forest, several old ancestors were frozen in place.

Following an immortal aura, the ancestors hadn't even had time to track the other party.

Not long ago, they had sensed the anomaly on Blue Star, and a powerful Venerable had appeared somewhere.

Now the obvious tremors of the earth had subsided.

The Gu Xuan ancestors were filled with uncertainty.

"That powerful aura vanished into thin air. Did the deity who came to Blue Star leave?"

Or perhaps it wasn't a deity, but rather their Blue Star had produced a terrifying powerhouse...

The Gu Xuan ancestors felt some regret. They had emerged too late and knew nothing of the changes on Blue Star.

"If a deity truly appeared, this would be a catastrophe for Blue Star. We, the entire human race, would be sacrifices."

An elder, perhaps remembering something, had an extremely aged face.

The Gu Xuan ancestors also fell into reminiscence. They no longer had the ability to face such a disaster a second time.

"Let's give up on capturing the Red Ghost Plague Water!"

Ancestor Qing Wu was also capable of bending and stretching. Although he was greedy for the Plague Water and the Red Ghost,

He couldn't put aside the main issue.

The Gu Xuan ancestors were powerful figures from Blue Star long ago. They couldn't discover such a terrifying aura

And not investigate it further, thus dragging Blue Star into danger!

"It seems we need to return to the alliance to take a look. We can't just abandon the entire Blue Star."

The ancestors immediately made up their minds, their figures darting like afterimages.

Ancestor Qing Wu glanced at the scene of reincarnation and saw Xiao Ye appearing before the Empress.

Although he didn't understand what the exposure of reincarnation represented, he couldn't forget the profound impression Xiao Ye had left on him.

"This kid is also to be wary of. I hope he doesn't appear again."

They didn't know how many infected individuals like Xiao Ye had already appeared in this world.

However, this group of ancestors intensely hoped that Xiao Ye would forever be trapped in the reincarnation on the sky screen.

Yet, a sense of crisis followed the ancestors like a shadow, accompanied by a smile in Xiao Ye's reincarnation scene.

He seemed to be on the verge of breaking through.

Reincarnation Illusion.

"Your Majesty... a ghost, there's a ghost!!"

Upon seeing Xiao Ye's figure, a minister couldn't help but cry out in alarm.

Xiao Ye saw a minister trying to flee and smiled as he blocked him, "Minister Han, don't be afraid."

"Prime Minister Xiao, although I am loyal to the Grand Commandant, I have never had any grievances with you."

"Don't think about taking me with you. I've already handed over all the true gold I embezzled previously to you."

As Minister Han was blocked by Xiao Ye, his legs went weak with fear.

They were all attending Xiao Ye's funeral. How could Prime Minister Xiao appear before them?

Xiao Ye saw that the ministers were in a panic and were also trying to escape the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The entire Prime Minister's Mansion was in chaos.

The Grand Commandant was also aghast. In his understanding, Xiao Ye was already dead!

"Prime Minister Xiao, why are you here?"

Xiao Ye's tall figure carried a hint of pressure as he walked step by step towards the coffin.

"I'm returning to my own residence, is there anything wrong with that?"

"But, you already... already..."

The Grand Commandant's face was stiff. He stared at Xiao Ye, unable to calm down.

Mu Qinglan's gaze was fixed on Xiao Ye, "Are you human or ghost?"

Xiao Ye didn't answer Mu Qinglan's question immediately. He strode towards the Empress.

His tone was unfathomable, "Does Your Majesty hope I am human or ghost?"

For some reason, when Xiao Ye spoke, Mu Qinglan had a feeling of being seen through.

She scrutinized Xiao Ye from head to toe, confirming that the person before her was indeed human.

Prime Minister Xiao was not dead! He had not died in the hunting grounds!

"If Prime Minister Xiao is safe and sound, it is good news for both me and the dynasty."

Before the Grand Commandant and Marquis Lin'an could react, Mu Qinglan calmly looked up at Xiao Ye.

As expected of a competent monarch, she could speak falsehoods with such sincerity.

The ceremonial coffin containing the clothes and burial articles had been given to Xiao Ye by his attendant Xiao Si.

Holding the clothes and burial articles, Xiao Ye sighed with pleasure, "How can this humble minister be so fortunate as to be personally buried by Your Majesty? Your grace makes me ashamed..."

Mu Qinglan's eyes were complex. She said, "Prime Minister Xiao, since you are alive, why haven't you appeared these past few days?"

She wanted to know how Xiao Ye had managed to escape the hunting grounds.

Where had all the assassins gone?

How could Xiao Ye break through the assassination plot personally orchestrated by the Empress?

The surrounding ministers were no longer panicking. They also looked at Xiao Ye with confusion.

"My disappearance, of course, was to avoid alerting the enemy."

Xiao Ye's lips curved into a smile, "This humble minister was fortunate enough to survive the assassins and has also found the mastermind of the hunting grounds!"

The mastermind has been found!
