Chapter 88

After leaving Bai Province, they had to pass through Feng Province and Zhao Province to reach Yun Province.

Along the way, Sang Yuanyuan was sorting out the clues in her mind.

There were a few things she was certain of.

Firstly, six years ago, the incident that caused her soul to travel to another world was indeed the work of the Temple of Heaven. It was done by Yun Zhi Zhuo, and she was aware of this matter at the time. Unfortunately, she had completely forgotten that memory.

Second, Yi could prove that Meng Wuyou, the Mary Sue's soul, was also obtained by Tian Tan. Their purpose was to replace her, Sang Yuanyuan, and assist Han Shaoling.

Third, Tian Tan could control the so-called 'power of destiny' to a certain extent through some unknown means. The three thunderbolts and the seven-colored energy above the Void-breaking Realm were all created by Tian Tan. Using this' power of destiny 'would cause the Nether Demon to become restless. No one knew what the connection between the two was.

"There's one more question."

Sang Yuanyuan pondered for a moment. "How did they know when Han Shaoling and Meng Wuyou would be in trouble?"

This kind of real-time protection was really incredible.

You Wuming narrowed his eyes.

Tian Tan had a lot of secrets.

"It doesn't matter." He ground his teeth. "Capture them and interrogate them slowly."

This group of people brushed against the border and quietly passed through Feng Zhou. They passed through Zhao and Jiang and arrived at Yun Zhou.

The people sent by Yun Xuzhou were neatly lined up on both sides of the official road, waiting for Sang Bujin and the others to arrive.

When they got close, a high-ranking female official jumped down from the cloud beast and quickly walked to them. She cupped her hands and bowed. "The Regent has an important matter to attend to today. He ordered me to lead the troops here to help. Crown Prince Sang, if you need anything, please instruct me.

Oh, I'm Zhang Yiqiao. "

Sang Bujin obviously looked a little disappointed when he didn't see Yun Xuzhou. He said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, General Zhang."

Zhang Yiqiao's men had informed Yun Xuzhou beforehand, so they brought along the ice-digging equipment.

"The King of the Eastern Province purchased a large number of equipment in the territory a few days ago. The Regent said that the equipment sold to the King of the Eastern Province were 'especially good'!

The handles are inlaid with large pieces of gold and jade. "

Zhang Yiqiao said modestly, "What we're using is something that commoners use to chisel ice. It's not worth much. The only good thing about it is that it's sturdy and durable. You can chisel it however you want!"

Hearing this, Sang Yuanyuan knew that General Zhang Yiqiao was an interesting person.

She moved forward and walked side by side with the female general.

"General Zhang, can you tell me if the Regent is purposely avoiding my elder brother?" She stealthily glanced in Sang Bujin's direction and asked in a low voice.

"No, no." Zhang Yiqiao didn't hide it from her. "Actually, today is the annual clan meeting.

You also know that although that ancestor has been paralyzed for so many years, his body has always been strong. Every year on this day, all the juniors of the Yun Royal Family will go to the ancestral temple to meet the ancestor. It has already become a tradition!

However, as you know, our ancestor's identity is special, so we have always kept a low profile in the Cloud Prefecture. "

"Oh …" Sang Yuanyuan suddenly understood.

That ancestor was referring to the last Emperor Yun from five hundred years ago.

Before he was paralyzed, he was the most likely person in the world to break through. He was a peerless expert at the ninth level of the Spiritual Brilliance Realm.

However, he was plotted against by the so-called 'curse'. He was paralyzed and bedridden, and his descendants withered. He had no choice but to abdicate the throne.

Because his cultivation was too high and he had been the emperor for many years, he had a rich foundation. Therefore, he had been nourished with spiritual medicine until now.

"The ancestor must be longing for the revival of the Yun Royal Family!" Sang Yuanyuan sighed with emotion.

"Of course." Zhang Yiqiao sighed. "Every time there is a new member in the royal family, the ancestor will be happy for many days.

Every year at the clan meeting, the ancestor will spend a lot of money to prepare spiritual liquid for the juniors. You don't know, but this ancestor is usually very stingy! "

Sang Yuanyuan said, "The ancestor will definitely see the revival of the Yun Royal Family!"

… …

With a native of the Cloud Prefecture leading the way, the group quickly arrived at the other side of the Ice Mist Valley.

This place was the Ice Mist Valley?

Sang Yuanyuan almost didn't dare to recognize it.

He didn't know how Yun Xuzhou exploded, but she actually blew up a glacier. Not to mention the valley floor, even the only mountain path was buried without a trace.

Now, standing between the two snowy peaks and looking forward, he could only see pieces of crushed ice and snow. The original cliff and valley had been filled into a new ice and snow mountain range.

Huangfu Jun's people were moving the mountain on the other side of the mountain range.

Sang Yuanyuan's face secretly reddened.

He thought to himself, 'Don't be fooled by Yun Xuzhou's silence. When I asked her for help, she did her best to help me. What kind of friendship is this?!'

Zhang Yiqiao spread out her hands and said, "I don't know how it happened!

The amount of fire I set was only enough to flatten an area of one li. That's all I could do!

But who would have thought that even though the glacier looked stiff, it couldn't withstand the explosion! "

Sang Yuanyuan, who thought too highly of himself, was speechless.

"How's the situation on the Eastern Prefecture's King's side?" Sang Yuanyuan asked.

Zhang Yiqiao gave her a thumbs up and said, "Princess Sang is smart. You even guessed that I sent people to keep an eye on them!

Those eight hundred people dug very carefully. They probably flipped over every piece of ice to take a look. They actually helped us clear a path. "

You Wuming rode on the Cloud Beast and casually grabbed a map. She used the black flame on her fingertip to mark a mark and said, "Dig a hole in."

Once the order was given, the soldiers immediately carried the ice-digging equipment and pounced on the huge ice and snow mountain range in front of them like pangolins. They worked in full swing.

You Wuming grabbed another map and pointed at the original mountain path. "Dig this out."

Another group of soldiers left in a huff and puff.

You Wuming stared at the two maps for a while. An indifferent smile appeared on her lips.

"It's very merciful for father and son to die together."

Huangfu Jun colluded with Kang Yanji to kill Sir Ming. The grudge of killing his father was irreconcilable. You Wuming definitely wouldn't be merciful to him.

In addition, Huangfu Jun had exposed his ability to detect lies. She couldn't let him live any longer.

It was time to put an end to this.

At the bottom of Ice Fog Valley, it would take another five days to dig the tunnel to the place where Huangfu Du was killed.

The mountain path was cleaned up very quickly. By nightfall of the second day, the cave where the fake palanquin was hidden during the ambush had already been cleaned up. After the cave was used up, it was filled up with soil.

"Don't we need to make some fake clues here?" Sang Yuanyuan looked around the clean cave.

After killing Huangfu Du, the crime scene had been carefully cleaned up. There were no traces left behind.

"No need." You Wuming looked at it with nostalgia. "Huangfu Jun will figure it out when he sees this cave."

He curled his lips. "Let's not tell him first!"

… …

Five days later, the tunnel under the mountain ridge reached the crime scene.

On Huangfu Jun's side, because they didn't have any leads and were afraid of missing clues, they were still slowly leveling the mountain ridge, nibbling at it bit by bit.

During these five days, You Wuming didn't like to talk much. Often, he would stare blankly at the tunnel under the mountain ridge. When he stared blankly, he would stare blankly for two to four hours.

She knew what he was thinking.

He was thinking about the canyon where he and his father were attacked.

The day of killing his enemy was close at hand. He could finally unbridled and carefree recall that person.

He wanted to use his own memories to find that person. Here, together with him, they would take revenge on Huangfu Jun.

Every time he met with Huangfu Jun before, it was by chance and accident. He didn't have any time to think and could only hastily respond to sudden situations.

But this time, everyone could feel that everything was different.

Huangfu Jun's power was gone.

The injuries to his body and heart destroyed Huangfu Jun's power and influence. The success of his plan to sow discord also destroyed the strong alliance between him and Kang Yanji.

Huangfu Jun was no longer the invincible Huangfu Jun of the past.

Sang Yuanyuan quietly watched You Wuming. She didn't disturb him and just silently accompanied him by his side.

When he was in a daze, she was in a daze with him.

When he glanced at her, she raised her small face and gave him a sweet smile.

She found a mysterious feeling that she couldn't explain.

Whether it was a person, a power, or a state, there would always be some obvious signs before its destruction.

During the assassination attempt on Huangfu Jun in the Capital, if they could really kill him, it would be a coincidence and a fluke. For Huangfu Jun, it would be a premature death.

At that time, Huangfu Jun was powerful and prosperous. His life wasn't meant to end. Therefore, as long as there was a slight chance of survival, they couldn't really kill him — in fact, many things in the world were like this. When one failed at the last step, what was lacking wasn't just a bit of luck, but also 'momentum.'

But now, the whole situation had been reversed.

Huangfu Jun's power was gone. This time, even if he didn't die at the bottom of Ice Fog Valley, he would die outside the valley.

Now, Yunzhou had been dragged into the water. If the assassination attempt in Ice Fog Valley failed, Yun Xuzhou had no other choice but to lead the army to encircle and annihilate Huangfu Jun. They definitely wouldn't let him leave alive.

This was a foregone conclusion that could be seen at a glance. There was no possibility of reversing it.

'I wonder if Huangfu Jun will think that this is fate that can't be defied when he realizes that there's no way to reverse the situation?' Sang Yuanyuan thought silently.

"Reporting — My lord, the tunnel has been dug out. We didn't find anything." A soldier whose eyebrows were covered in ice and snow came forward to report.

In fact, there really wasn't any evidence left in Ice Fog Valley.

You Wuming, who was like an ice sculpture, slowly exhaled a long breath.

"Dig left and right separately. Surround and ambush." He pointed at the sheepskin map. "Here, here, and here. Dig out everything."

"Yes!"

Yun Xuzhou had quietly rushed to Ice Fog Valley.

She was close to You Wuming and could see that he was different from usual, so she didn't disturb him. She just let Sang Yuanyuan quietly accompany him.

Another night passed.

When the sky shone over the snowy mountains, a soldier in the tunnel reported, "My lord, the ambush is in position!"

You Wuming raised his eyebrows, turned around, and walked toward Yun Xuzhou unhurriedly.

"I'll have to trouble Prince Regent to arrange for people to pass the news of the cave on the mountain path to the Eastern Province's King." His voice was cold and calm. His entire person was like a deep pool of water, without any fluctuations.

Yun Xuzhou said seriously, "I'll do it without leaving any traces."

You Wuming said, "Thank you.

Prince Regent, please go back. Try to create an alibi. "

His calm appearance made Yun Xuzhou, who had a heart of steel, shiver. She turned slightly to the side and bowed to You Wuming, Sang Bujin, and Sang Yuanyuan. "Take care."

After watching Yun Xuzhou leave, You Wuming took Sang Yuanyuan's hand.

"Wife.

Come with me to avenge your father-in-law. "

She felt a lump in her throat. She pursed her lips and nodded. "Okay!"

You Wuming took a deep breath.

Under his thin white shirt, the lines of his firm chest bulged. Then, he slowly exhaled, raised his eyebrows, and smiled. Holding her hand, he strode into the icy tunnel!

The place where they killed Huangfu Du had been chiseled into an empty cave under the ice.

The soldiers of You Prefecture and Sang Prefecture were lying in ambush in the tunnel on the left and right sides. They were waiting for Huangfu Jun's 800 people to enter the trap. Then, they could cut off their escape route and catch the turtles in the jar.

This time, the soldiers were wearing the armor of the Tiandu Army.

Under the snowy mountains, it was dark and silent.

After smelling the pure ice for a long time, one could faintly smell the faint scent of pine.

After waiting quietly for a long time, the crisp sound of digging finally came from the north. It was extremely fast, like a swimming fish, shuttling back and forth under the silent and dark mountain.

Huangfu Jun had come.

After discovering the suspicious cave on the mountain path, Huangfu Jun no longer cleared the snow inch by inch. Instead, like You Wuming, he dug through the tunnel and headed straight for the site of the incident.

If it was the Huangfu Jun of the past, he would definitely think a bit more and take a look.

But today, he was no longer the same as before.

People who felt that their situation was hopeless would often throw caution to the wind and stake everything on a single throw. In the end, they would lose everything — the mentality of a gambler was also the attitude of all living beings.

In the darkness, Sang Yuanyuan could not hear the breathing of the soldiers, but he could hear You Wuming.

She could even hear his heart beating and his blood rushing through his veins.

"Will he feel that there are soldiers lying in ambush here?" Sang Yuanyuan asked softly.

Now, he only knew that Huangfu Jun could feel the fluctuations of liquid around him. However, he did not know how wide his perception range was or how sharp his sensitivity was.

"There's ice and snow between us. It's fine." You Wuming could not suppress the hoarse excitement in his voice.

The sounds of digging were getting closer and closer!

Finally, there was the crisp sound of breaking ice!

Huangfu Jun's men had dug into the large ice cave that You Wuming had prepared for him!

"My lord!

We found a large cave! "Separated by the ice wall, the excited shouts of the Eastern Province's soldiers were slightly distorted.

You Wuming held Sang Yuanyuan's hand and walked to the place separated by the ice wall.

Huangfu Jun's men held cold fire in their hands. The white light illuminated the group of people, making them look like ghostly shadows.

The light penetrated the ice wall and Sang Yuanyuan was able to see through the darkness.

Huangfu Jun was still wearing his purple robe today. He quickly walked into the large ice cave. Just as he was about to speak, a jade scroll suddenly lit up on his body.

Huangfu Xiong's furious voice came from the jade scroll.

"Big brother!

I can't stand that b * tch Kang Yanji anymore!

She said that my bow belonged to Jiang Shisan. She even asked me if I brought five hundred men and killed five thousand of her men in Jiang Province!

Big brother!

That b * tch must have lost her mind. She's obviously going to turn hostile! "

Huangfu Jun seemed to be in a trance for a moment. He said softly, "Little brother, don't be impatient. I've found a strange place. Someone did it on purpose. I'm afraid it's the place where Du 'er met with an accident …"

"Then I understand!"

Huangfu Xiong roared, "That b * tch Kang Yanji knew that big brother was about to catch her off guard. She panicked and put a basin on my head first!

Damn it!

If I could kill five thousand of her men with five hundred men, I would have destroyed all her ancestors' tombs! "

Huangfu Jun rubbed his temples. Even through the ice, one could see that he was very tired.

An ambitious and ruthless person had lost his momentum.

Sang Yuanyuan vaguely remembered the Huangfu Jun she saw in Tiandu. At that time, he was strong, powerful, cunning and astute. He was not like an old man who would make stupid and fatal mistakes.

With just one glance, Sang Yuanyuan knew that today, Huangfu Jun would definitely die.

Huangfu Jun's voice sounded very weak, "Little brother, I'll take a look first. I'll contact you later."

"Okay!

Big brother, be careful! "

The jade slip shattered.

"This is … a very new mark." Huangfu Jun touched the ice wall and said softly, "Was it specially made for me?

If so, then it must be the murderer who killed Du 'er … "

Separated by a wall, You Wuming tilted his body and slowly raised a finger that was burning with black flames. The fingertip poked Huangfu Jun's eyes.

An evil smile appeared on his lips.

Sang Yuanyuan tilted her head and looked at him.

She was not worried at all that he would fall back into the dark abyss.

She knew that the darkest darkness in his heart had to be released somewhere.

Let him vent his evil thoughts to his heart's content. Once Huangfu Jun and Kang Yanji were dealt with, a new life would sprout in that dark and desolate place.

Huangfu Jun felt something. He stood in front of the ice wall and did not move.

You Wuming slowly pinched a jade slip and sprinkled some dust. Then, he walked towards the other end of the passage. As he walked, he used his fingertip to lightly knock on the ice wall.

Knock, knock, knock …

A purple shadow flashed. Huangfu Jun did not care about anything else and chased after him!

Most of his personal guards were still in that half of the passage. A few of them had followed him into the ice cave. Seeing him rush to the other side, they could not react in time.

Only a loud rumbling sound could be heard.

The pre-arranged cave-in had happened.

The eight hundred personal guards of the Eastern Province were all blocked in the passage and the ice cave. Before they could regain their senses, they saw the ice walls on both sides shatter. Countless soldiers wearing the black armor of the Tiandu army pounced out like ferocious tigers and killed everyone they saw!

"There's an ambush!

It's the Tiandu army! "

"Protect the Lord!"

"Quickly send a message back!

The Tiandu army has ambushed the Lord!

The Lord is in danger! "

The disturbance behind could no longer interfere with Huangfu Jun and You Wuming.

This pair of destined enemies were already standing at both ends of the passage. In the darkness, they stared at each other.

You Wuming raised his arm and pushed Sang Yuanyuan behind him.

She knew that he did not want anyone to interfere in this matter.

In the darkness, there was suddenly a wind!

Huangfu Jun was originally a cunning and ruthless person. In the face of such a situation, his heart was as clear as a mirror — the person who set up this trap was the murderer who killed Huangfu Du!

Although the lion who had lost his son was old, he still erupted with unparalleled strength.

Although You Wuming blocked in front of him, Sang Yuanyuan still felt a gust of cold wind full of moisture blowing towards him, causing his cheeks to hurt.

You Wuming also moved.

He did not hold back. When his figure swept out, black flames burned around his body, drawing out a clean and neat outline with the aura of destruction and death.

In the darkness, such black flames were enough to illuminate.

The darkness that was deeper than the darkness was emitting light, illuminating his cold and white face, making him look more like a fiend from hell.

Huangfu Jun was obviously shocked.

"You Wuming?!

How can it be you! "

Before he could finish speaking, the two figures with the force of ten thousand catties had already collided heavily with each other!

Huangfu Jun immediately spat out blood and flew backwards.

It looked like he was about to be wrapped up by this huge wave and smashed back into the ice cave.

You Wuming also spilled blood from the corner of his mouth.

Huangfu Jun was an expert of the ninth layer of Spirit Brilliance. At this moment, facing Shi Zi's enemy, he erupted with power that was far beyond his usual.

You Wuming could have easily avoided this all-out attack with his ghostly body movements, but he chose to meet Huangfu Jun head-on, not hesitating to injure the enemy a thousand times and lose eight hundred times!

In this way, Huangfu Jun did not have the slightest room to maneuver, and could only take You Wuming's all-out attack head-on.

Under this attack, Huangfu Jun flew backwards, but You Wuming went against the huge impact, advancing instead of retreating!

Just as HuangFu Jun was about to crash into the collapsed ground, You Wuming's body, which was burning with vengeful black flames, had already crossed the distance of several zhang and grabbed HuangFu Jun's collar!

The black flames illuminated Huangfu Jun's face.

After spitting out blood, he looked even older.

You Wuming threw back his hand.

Huangfu Jun's back hit the ground, and he was thrown heavily onto the ice surface. In an instant, cracks like spider webs, spread to the left and right ice walls with a 'ka ka' sound!

Huangfu Jun spat out blood again, and the black water shining ring fell to the ground with a 'clang'.

You Wuming directly swung him up like a broken sack, bent his knee, and gave him a heavy kick.

The sound of his spine breaking made Sang Yuanyuan feel a toothache.

At this moment, You Wuming's lips curved into a sinister smile, and his moves were heavier than the last, as if an Asura demon had come to the human world.

By the time he retracted his hand, HuangFu Jun's face was no longer recognizable.

You Wuming gently pushed him, and pushed him onto the cracked ice wall.

Huangfu Jun's eyes flickered with a weak light, and between spitting out blood, he asked unwillingly, "You … Wuming … What … enmity … enmity … between you and I …"

HuangFu Jun was a person who valued family. This could be seen from the way he treated HuangFu Xiong and HuangFu Du, as well as the way he wiped his tears at You Wuming's corpse in the original plot.

After all, You Wuming was his nephew.

If You Wuming hadn't wiped out the You Clan, or if You Wuming had spared Huangfu Li's life when his father ascended the throne, Huangfu Jun wouldn't have minded supporting him at all, and he would have firmly held the first position in the western region of Cloud Realm.

He couldn't understand at all.

Just now, he was absolutely certain that this matter was done by that cruel and unscrupulous woman, Kang Yanji. How could it be You Wuming?!

He had always thought that You Wuming was just an ambitious schemer. Where did such a deep and vicious hatred come from?

The moment he saw You Wuming clearly, Huangfu Jun was truly shocked.

The confusion in his heart had already surpassed the unwillingness and fear of death.

You Wuming slowly leaned forward and approached him.

His extremely handsome lips suddenly curled up faintly.

"I killed Huangfu Du with my own hands."

Huangfu Jun moved his lips with difficulty. "You and I have no enmity … why do you have to do this?"

"No enmity, no enmity." You Wuming leaned even closer. "Do you still remember how it feels to be beaten to the point of kneeling?"

Huangfu Jun stared blankly at him.

His eyes, which were so swollen that only a slit remained, suddenly widened in horror.

At this moment, You Wuming's face gradually overlapped with a certain handsome face in the depths of his memory.

They did not look alike, but there were some things that could be felt from their bones and blood.

Huangfu Jun had only lost once in his life. He had been beaten to the point of kneeling on the ground. That was …

"You really have no enmity?" You Wuming's smile was sinister, and his voice was gentle. "The enmity of killing my father is absolutely irreconcilable."

"No, impossible … How could you be that brat Ming … How could it be!" He struggled heavily, his eyes wide open.

You Wuming lowered his head and smiled. He lifted his leg and kicked Huangfu Jun's tibia, breaking it.

Huangfu Jun clenched his teeth and did not let out a single sound.

"It's all thanks to you."

You Wuming slowly bent his waist, dark stars slowly rotating in his eyes. "I have taken over this body, and I also have the bloodline of the shaman race and the underworld race. Now, I need you to do one last thing. Do it well, and I will let you die painlessly.

Take out the Jade Slip and contact Huangfu Xiong. "

"Don't even think about it." Huangfu Jun smiled bitterly. "If you want to torture me, do as you please.

Don't even think about using me to sow discord between Eastern Province and Tiandu!

Heh, the mere power of the shaman race's bloodline can't control someone with a firm will! "

"Oh?" You Wuming smiled faintly. The black flames followed his slender fingers and crawled towards Huangfu Jun.

He paused, as if he had thought of something.

"Sang Guo!" He suddenly turned his head and shouted at Sang Yuanyuan. "Turn around, don't look."

He wanted to do something cruel to Huangfu Jun.

Sang Yuanyuan did not retreat. Instead, she took a few steps forward to his side and gently placed a hand on his shoulder. "I'm not afraid.

I said that no matter what you do, I will support you. "

He sensed that her voice was slightly trembling, and he couldn't help but sigh softly.

He withdrew the black flames and gave up on his original plan. He only raised his fist and struck Huangfu Jun's chest with a heavy blow, causing him to be on the verge of death.

He pinched Huangfu Jun's chin, dark stars spinning in his eyes again. His voice was as soft as a whisper. "I'll say it one more time. Take out the Jade Slip and contact Huangfu Xiong. Tell him …"

As he spoke, his other hand had already withdrawn a jade slip from Huangfu Jun's belt, and then he broke it.

Huangfu Jun's vision was already unfocused. He spat out blood and replied, "Hmph!

Don't even think about using the shaman race's bloodline to trick my little brother … "

You Wuming pressed close to his ear, and only he could hear his voice. "Tell him that the person who killed you was not Kang Yanji."

Huangfu Jun's completely unfocused vision froze for a brief moment, as if he didn't understand. However, his slow and dying brain couldn't react. His heart was a bit anxious, and he couldn't wait to tell his little brother the truth. Therefore, he spat out the truth —

"The person who killed me was not Kang Yanji!"

After saying this, Huangfu Jun seemed to have fulfilled his wish. He struggled and closed his eyes forever.

He didn't have the energy to think about what Huangfu Xiong would think of these two sentences of truth together.

"Hmph!

Don't even think about using the power of the shaman race's bloodline to trick my little brother. The person who killed me was not Kang Yanji. "
