Fantasy: My Wife is the Empress, and Our Cute Kids Wreak Havoc in the Nine Provinces – Chapter 192

Chapter 192: Long Yurou: Who is helping me in secret?

“The Seventh’s provincial mansion was destroyed?”

“Did the Little Empress send someone to do it? Where did she get the confidence?”

“Could it be that the Empress has the support of the other four Sacred Grounds?”

Naturally, the other six Provincial Governors and the Martial Emperors also heard what that cultivator said, and they couldn’t help but discuss it secretly through voice transmission.

The Ten Great Sacred Grounds of the Nine Provinces, with the Martial God about to ascend, naturally began to stir.

Seven provinces had the support of four Sacred Grounds, the Imperial Family had the support of two Sacred Grounds, and four other Sacred Grounds remained neutral.

Originally, the combined strength of the seven provinces was definitely far greater than that of the Imperial Family. It was unlikely that the Empress would dare to send people to attack their lairs.

For the Empress to have such confidence to confront them head-on, it was likely that she had gained the support of the four neutral Sacred Grounds.

But, why didn’t they receive any news beforehand about such important information?

“Let’s go back and take a look first, lest our lairs are also attacked.”

A Provincial Governor suggested.

“Good!”

Everyone echoed in unison. Then, they tore through space one after another, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

The four Martial Emperors of the Imperial Palace were stunned. They looked back at the Empress’s bedchamber, feeling a sense of admiration in their hearts.

“As expected of Your Majesty, she had already planned this. To hold the seven Provincial Governors in the Imperial Palace while secretly sending people to attack their lairs and steal their treasures, this move is truly brilliant.”

“The key is that although they can guess that it was Your Majesty who did it, they have no evidence and dare not act rashly.”

“Stop guessing. Send someone to inform Her Majesty that the seven Provincial Governors have left.”

The four Martial Emperors shook their heads and turned to leave.

“They left?”

In the bedchamber, Long Yurou, who received the news, was also stunned. She hadn’t sent anyone to attack their lairs. Who exactly dared to attack the Cangzhou Provincial Governor’s Mansion? However, no matter who it was, they had indirectly helped her resolve the crisis. If possible, she should send someone to recruit them.

Thinking of this, she said, “Someone, send people to Cangzhou to investigate. Find out who attacked the Cangzhou Provincial Governor’s Mansion. Offer them great treasures and be sure to invite them to the Imperial Capital.”

“Yes!”

Someone responded from the shadows, but no one was seen.

Meanwhile, outside the Cang Mountain Demonic Valley in Cangzhou, Chu Feng’s Spirit Body looked at the two Martial Emperors attacking the formation barrier. He put down Chu Xin and Chu Chen and instructed, “I don’t have much time. The barrier of this ancient protective formation is very strong. Later, I will attack the formation barrier with the other two Martial Emperors. After that, I will hold off those two Martial Emperors. You sneak in and steal the treasures, then run away after you’re done.”

“Okay, Daddy.”

Chu Xin and Chu Chen nodded in unison.

Chu Feng’s Spirit Body glanced at them and tore through space. “Fellow Daoists, let me lend you a hand.”

Then, earth-shattering sounds of bombardment rang out.

“Let’s go, follow the tunnel.”

Chu Xin and Chu Chen found the tunnel they had dug earlier and returned to the formation barrier. They sat down, one in front of the other, drinking beast milk while waiting for the barrier to break.

On the ground, the rumbling sounds continued. Even with the combined power of three Martial Emperors, they couldn’t break the formation barrier in a short time, which showed its extraordinary power.

With nothing to do, Chu Chen took out the Second Elder Supreme’s Spatial Ring and took out the treasures inside one by one to examine them. There were more than a dozen Saint Weapons and about ten Saint Grade Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. The rest were below Saint Grade and not considered particularly good treasures.

The low-grade Ancient Secret Realm Token didn’t look special either. The two siblings just glanced at it and put it away.

“They’re all junk. And they still treat them like treasures.”

Chu Chen muttered softly as he looked.

Chu Xin also nodded, her big, round eyes filled with disdain.

“However, these three fruits can be tasted. These ginseng, lotus seeds, and the like can be used to make soup.”

Chu Chen instantly decided on the use of those Saint Grade Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. The Two-Headed Fire Xi beside him rolled its eyes speechlessly. Those were Saint Grade Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, something that countless forces and cultivators could only dream of. But in the hands of these two little devils, they were only good for making soup.

“Sister, let’s try the fruit first.”

Chu Chen gave Chu Xin a fruit, then looked at the Two-Headed Fire Xi and asked, “Little Pig, do you want some?”

◈◈◈

*Roar!*

The Two-Headed Little Pig nodded repeatedly. It recognized this fruit. It was a Saint Grade Vermilion Fruit, containing the power of fire-attribute laws. It was a treasure for fire-attribute cultivators. Eating this Saint Grade Vermilion Fruit would naturally allow its fire-attribute laws to advance further.

“Here you go.”

Chu Chen wasn’t stingy and threw the Saint Grade Vermilion Fruit to the Two-Headed Fire Xi.

In his eyes, this Saint Grade Vermilion Fruit was just a fruit.

“It tastes pretty good.”

Chu Xin gnawed on the Vermilion Fruit, nodding her little head in approval.

“It’s just a little hot.”

Chu Chen took a bite. The Vermilion Fruit turned into a ball of fire in his mouth. Ordinary people really couldn’t handle it.

*Roar!*

The Two-Headed Fire Xi let out a painful roar, its body burning with intense flames.

“Is it necessary to react so dramatically to eating a fruit?”

Chu Xin and Chu Chen turned to look at it, their eyes full of disdain and confusion.

Eating a fruit?

As if it was just an ordinary fruit that could be found anywhere. This was a Saint Grade Vermilion Fruit!

The Two-Headed Fire Xi was speechless, and at the same time, it felt a little regretful. It shouldn’t have been so reckless. It had ultimately underestimated the power of the flame laws contained in this Saint Grade Vermilion Fruit.

Fortunately, it was now a peak seventh-rank demon beast. This pain didn’t last long. Soon, it refined the energy of the Saint Grade Vermilion Fruit, and its flame law power advanced a lot.

It looked up at Chu Xin and Chu Chen, who looked completely normal, and sighed inwardly. It was truly unimaginable how these two little devils could be so nonchalant.

“These treasures are useless.”

After finishing the fruit, Chu Chen looked at the weapons and magical artifacts, his tone full of disappointment.

“Not useless. When we go back, we can give them to the uncles, aunties, big brothers, and big sisters in the village,” Chu Xin said.

“That’s true.”

Chu Chen nodded.

*Roar!*

The Two-Headed Fire Xi let out a low roar.

Chu Chen turned to look at it and asked doubtfully, “Little Pig, do you want some?”

*Roar!*

The Two-Headed Fire Xi nodded repeatedly, its two pig heads looking at a Saint Saber and a Saint Sword respectively.

It possessed the power of saber, sword, thunder, and fire laws. Among the Saint Weapons in Chu Chen’s hands were a Saint Saber and a Saint Sword. Since they were useless to Chu Xin and Chu Chen, it wanted to refine two Saint Weapons for itself, which would greatly enhance its strength.

Demon beasts could also refine magical artifacts, but ordinary demon beasts didn’t have the opportunity. After all, no human cultivator would willingly refine magical artifacts for demon beasts, and demon beasts themselves couldn’t refine them.

Only those Beast Tamers would create magical artifacts for their tamed beasts.

“You want these?”

Chu Chen followed the Two-Headed Fire Xi’s gaze and picked up the Saint Saber and Saint Sword, asking.

*Roar!*

The Two-Headed Fire Xi nodded repeatedly, its two pairs of narrow pig eyes filled with anticipation.

“Then they’re yours.”

Chu Chen waved his chubby little hand, and the two Saint Weapons were thrown over. The Two-Headed Little Pig opened its two pig mouths and swallowed the Saint Saber and Saint Sword respectively, slowly refining them.

*Bang!*

Just then, cracks finally appeared on the barrier, and a moment later, it shattered with a bang.

“The barrier is broken! Let’s dig!”

Chu Xin and Chu Chen cheered, jumped up, put away their baby bottles, took out their treasure-digging hoes, stuck out their little butts, and quickly waved their little hands, digging rapidly. The Two-Headed Little Pig also stopped refining the Saint Weapons and waved its two small front paws, digging the soil.
