Chapter 134: Chapter 134, Heart Devouring Pill

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

How to deal with Zhou Shimin was the main topic of discussion among the seven great sects.

Although the Imperial Court army was retreating, they still had the strength to resist.

Forcefully attacking the capital would mean that Zhou Shimin, as the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, would not be willing to die.

...

If the Emperor personally fought, the morale of the soldiers would be raised.

Finally, even if the alliance army took down the capital, the losses would definitely be very heavy.

“Amitabha, sacrificing Emperor Zhou alone can reduce the suffering of the world. I think the plan is feasible.” The person who spoke was dressed in a yellow monk robe and a red kasaya draped over his shoulders. He held a nine-ringed staff in his hand.

“Abbot Huitong is right. Our Kunlun sect has a colorless and tasteless Heart Devouring Pill. Those who consume it for less than three days will definitely die. Immortals below the level of saints cultivator will not be able to save them!” Taoist Tieling of the Kunlun sect stood up, he also hoped to use poison to solve the problem.

After saying this, the sect masters looked at him worriedly.

It wasn’t because of how vicious the scheme was.

The key point was that the Heart Devouring Pill was too overbearing. Even those below the saint cultivator level wouldn’t be able to resist it.

Who knew if the Heart Devouring Pill would be used on them when they became enemies with the Kunlun Sect one day?

Although the Kunlun Sect was far away in the western regions and rarely visited the central plains, they were still a reputable sect. How could they research such a vicious pill?

This made the other six sect masters secretly wary.

“Since the Tieling Master has such a poison, we don’t need to worry too much. Arrange for someone to enter the Imperial Palace and use this poison to kill Emperor Zhou. However, is the nine thousand-year-old Wei Zhengchun still alive?” Asked Zuo Qianqiu.

“The Heart Devouring Pill is extremely overbearing. If Wei Zhengchun is still alive, he will definitely use his vital essence to forcefully save Emperor Zhou. When that time comes, we can take advantage of the fact that he has used up too much of his internal energy to get rid of them together. Wouldn’t the world be at peace?” Taoist Tieling revealed a sinister smile.

If nine thousand-year-old Wei Zhengchun did not die, he would always been a threat to the martial arts world of the Central Plains.

This was the perfect opportunity to get rid of this old eunuch.

“How are we going to divide the world?” Wudang Sect Master Zhang Junbao asked.

“No matter what, we definitely can not continue to have the surname Zhou. Why don’t we make it a rule that whoever enters the capital first will be the ruler of the new dynasty,” Abbot Huitong said.

The martial arts world of the Central Plains had been suppressed by the Great Zhou Dynasty for too many years, and they could not raise their heads.

Working together with the eight vassal kings, both sides had their own ulterior motives.

The Emperor did not want to have any power that surpassed the Imperial Power.

And the martial arts world of the Central Plains did not want to be restricted by the Imperial Power.

“That’s good. Let’s do it like this for now. The rest will have to see if Tieling Sect Master can succeed!” Zhang Junbao stroked his white beard and looked at the others.

In the martial arts world, Shaolin and Wudang were the two sect masters of Mount Tai. With these two masters setting the rules, the others could only agree.

“Amitabha, then everyone can leave first.” Abbot Huitong stood up and took the lead to walk outside.

The entire Imperial Palace became like ants on a hot pan.

The eight vassal kings had defeated the Imperial Court’s army and were now approaching the capital. If they were to be defeated again, they would probably have to defend the imperial gate to death.

This was the outcome that Zhou Shimin did not want to see.

The situation was obviously disadvantageous to the Imperial Court. All the officials and Zhou Shimin did not sleep all night, thinking about how to deal with it.

As the sky brightened, the officials scattered with worry on their faces.

Great Zhou was in danger!

Zhou Shimin slumped weakly against the back of his chair. His face was worn, and because he had not rested well for a few days in a row. In addition to the immense pressure he was facing, his spirit was on the verge of breaking down.

The eight vassal kings ignored the great Zhou Dynasty’s worries and forcefully pulled him down from the throne.

Most importantly, the seven great sects were eyeing him from behind.

In the end, the eight vassal kings being able to sit on the throne was the best outcome. After all, they all had the surname Zhou, and their blood flowed through their veins.

If the seven great sects killed all of these vassal kings, then the Great Zhou Dynasty would have to change.

This was something he did not want to see the most.

These brothers could not see the danger and were blinded by power. They were bound to seize the throne.

“I hope that our ancestors’ spirit in heaven blesses me to protect the foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty!” Zhou Shiming closed his eyes and muttered to the ceiling.

“Your Majesty, this is the tremella porridge cooked by the kitchen.” The palace maid carried the porridge and carefully placed it on the table.

The worries of the past few days made it difficult for him to swallow.

However, Zhou Shiming knew that he could not fall. He picked up the white fungus porridge and drank it while thinking about how to solve the problem.

Crash!

The bowl fell to the ground and instantly shattered into pieces.

Just as Zhou Shiming was thinking about the problem, he suddenly felt a piercing pain. His entire body instantly collapsed to the ground, and his heart felt as if it was being eaten by ten thousand ants.

The guards, palace maids, and eunuchs outside heard the sound and hurriedly ran in.

But the palace maids who had just delivered the porridge had already disappeared!

“Quickly send the imperial physicians! Quickly!”

The entire imperial palace suddenly became busy.

The news that Emperor Zhou had been poisoned was instantly spread.

The imperial physicians and the hidden experts of the Imperial Palace quickly rushed over.

An old eunuch shakily walked forward, and everyone immediately made a path for him.

“Kunlun Sect’s Heart Devouring Pill!” The old eunuch’s voice was very hoarse, but his eyes revealed a murderous aura that made people unable to look directly at him.

Heart Devouring Pill!

The hearts of the people present instantly sank to the bottom of the valley. Regardless of whether it was the imperial physician or the experts within the sect, everyone had basically heard of the power of the heart-devouring pill.

In the absence of an antidote, those who were poisoned would undoubtedly die, unless it was a saint cultivator who cure them.

However, after two hours, even the gods might not be able to save them.

“Quickly go to the forbidden area and invite 9000-year-old Wei Zhengchun!” A eunuch said.

This group of eunuch experts had always followed 9000-year-old Wei Zhengchun. In their eyes, only Wei Zhengchun could save Zhou Shimin.

Although they wanted to save him, their strength did not allow it.

Moreover, this group of eunuchs believed that 9000-year-old Wei Zhengchun was still alive. Perhaps he had already broken through the barrier of a saint cultivator.

The key was that Zhou Shimin was the pillar of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Once he died, the Imperial Court would be leaderless.

Crown Prince Cheng’an was only 13 years old and could not control the situation at all. At that time, the Great Zhou Dynasty would really be finished.

The only chance was to invite 9000-year-old Wei Zhengchun. He could save Zhou Shimin and stabilize the current chaotic situation.

A Xiantian seventh-rank eunuch quickly flew toward the library. He definitely knew 9000-year-old Wei Zhengchun.

He Chuan held the freshly brewed tea in his hand and leisurely sipped the tea.

He did not like drinking alcohol now but preferred to drink tea to preserve his health.

As for the poisoning of Emperor Zhou, he did not know, because he did not pay attention to the matter there.

He did not know if it was because he had signed at the library for too long that the things given to him did not have much effect on him.

Should he try somewhere else?

He Chuan thought to himself.

Perhaps he would be able to gain more if he went to another place.

For example, the harem, the throne room, the imperial study, and other hidden places could all be tried.

These places were all contaminated with dragon energy and the fate of the country. Perhaps the system would give him a better reward if he signed in.

He made up his mind. He planned to try it secretly tomorrow. Anyway, with his current strength, he probably would not be able to discover it.

A small sound reached his ears.

Someone has come to the forbidden area at the back of the mountain!
