Fantasy: My Wife is the Empress, and Our Cute Kids Wreak Havoc in the Nine Provinces – Chapter 44

Chapter 44: Dad Says, If You Can’t Act, Just Widen Your Eyes

The crowd looked at the little toddler jumping up and down on the stage, excited, and they were all speechless.

It is indeed a joyous thing to find out who is trying to harm you, but it always feels a little off.

Because this little toddler’s point of excitement is different from that of a normal person.

Normal people should be more angry, and even if they are happy, it should be about successfully finding out the mastermind.

But this little toddler’s point of excitement seems to be that he won against his sister and finally doesn’t have to clean the grill?

“If you win, you win, is there a need to be so happy? You look like a fool.”

Chu Xin glanced at Chu Chen and muttered quietly, then raised her head to look at the last Demon Saber Sect Elder in front of her, glaring at him angrily: “You don’t look like a good person, how come you didn’t do anything bad?”

The Elder’s lips moved, he wanted to say something, but he didn’t know what to say.

Forget it, forget it, children’s words are innocent, I have lived for thousands of years, why should I care about a three-year-old brat.

He could only constantly comfort himself in his heart.

Long Yufei’s figure flashed and appeared on the stage. She said to Chu Chen, “Little one, ask him who gave him the Demon-Inducing Pill, whether the Demon Saber Sect still has a private stash of Demon-Inducing Pills, and who else has Demon-Inducing Pills.”

“Okay, Auntie Long.”

Chu Chen nodded and repeated Long Yufei’s questions word for word.

“I obtained the Demon-Inducing Pill by chance.”

The Elder answered the first question. For the next two questions, he only answered three words: “I don’t know.”

Long Yufei turned to look at Elder Huo Mo and said indifferently, “Elder Huo Mo, you were the one who asked Elder Shui Mo to do this, don’t tell me you didn’t know?”

“Provincial Governor, I really didn’t know he had Demon-Inducing Pills. I just asked him to find someone to defeat that brat, I never thought of killing him.”

Elder Huo Mo quickly cried out in grievance, then looked at the Elder and roared angrily, “Old Shui, you actually hid Demon-Inducing Pills, you have harmed our Demon Saber Sect.”

He looked grief-stricken and furious, as if he really didn’t know.

Long Yufei didn’t speak. She knew very well that the Demon Saber Sect definitely still had Demon-Inducing Pills. It’s just that these guys were too cautious. They didn’t even know about each other’s private stash of Demon-Inducing Pills. They must have used Truth Talismans or Soul Searching Techniques.

Without evidence, even if she could guess, it was impossible to convict the Demon Saber Sect.

“No, no.”

Just then, Chu Chen shook his head repeatedly, took two or three steps to Elder Huo Mo, and corrected him seriously, “You should be acting grief-stricken, right? Dad says, if you can’t act, you should widen your eyes a little more and open your mouth wider when you roar. Also, your expression is too stiff, it looks very fake.”

“…”

Elder Huo Mo’s expression froze, his eyes widened, and he couldn’t say a word.

This brat is doing it on purpose, right?

He must be doing it on purpose.

Doesn’t he know what it means to see through something but not say it?

Now everyone is very embarrassed.

“Eh, that’s right, you can teach a ruzi. Just like that, do it again.”

Chu Chen saw that Elder Huo Mo’s eyes were wide open and nodded in satisfaction. He even stroked his chubby double chin with his fleshy little hand.

These actions were obviously learned from his father. It was unclear how well he learned them, but these comical actions appearing on a three-year-old toddler were really too cute.

Pfft!

The female guards and nearby spectators all burst into laughter. This little toddler was really too funny.

Their father is also a weirdo, teaching them all sorts of strange things.

A smile also appeared on Long Yufei’s lips, but it quickly disappeared. She turned to look at Elder Shui Mo, a cold light flashing in her eyes.

The Truth Talisman had already expired, but the effects of the Sealing Talisman and the Restraint Talisman were still in effect. Elder Shui Mo had already regained consciousness but was still unable to move.

He knew that he was done for, and he roared frantically, “Damn brat, after I die, I will turn into an evil spirit and haunt you, making you riddled with inner demons. I will watch you die under the Minor Heavenly Tribulation.”

“Minor Heavenly Tribulation? What’s that? Dad seems to have mentioned it, but I forgot.”

Chu Chen was a little puzzled and scratched his bun in distress.

“Stupid Little Brother, the Minor Heavenly Tribulation is the Saint Tribulation. Only by passing the Minor Heavenly Tribulation can you become a Martial Saint.”

Chu Xin walked over and said with disappointment, “I told you to study harder, but you didn’t listen. Now you don’t understand, do you?”

◈◈◈

“Hehe!”

Chu Chen chuckled foolishly and mumbled, “Why do I need to remember this? We don’t have any cultivation, so we don’t need to undergo any tribulation.”

“That’s true.”

Chu Xin nodded. The two siblings didn’t have any True Qi, so they probably wouldn’t need to undergo any Minor Heavenly Tribulation.

Hearing the conversation between the two siblings, everyone was stunned.

No cultivation?

These two siblings didn’t seem to have any True Qi fluctuations from beginning to end. They originally thought they had some treasure that could hide their cultivation and aura, but now it seems that’s not the case.

Could it be that they really have no cultivation?

But how can they be so powerful without cultivation?

And Elder Shui Mo was even more dumbfounded.

Without cultivation, the Minor Heavenly Tribulation wouldn’t descend at all. Wouldn’t his curse be useless?

At this moment, Long Yufei waved her jade hand, and the Lánzhōu Provincial Governor’s Seal appeared in her hand. With a flip of her hand, she suppressed it towards Elder Shui Mo.

“Those who hide Demon-Inducing Pills shall die!”

Strands of Power of Fortune wrapped around the Provincial Governor’s Seal and came crashing down.

This attack seemed to lift the entire Lánzhōu and smash it down. With his cultivation sealed and his body restrained, Elder Shui Mo naturally had no power to resist.

With a desperate roar, the Provincial Governor’s Seal came crashing down, crushing Elder Shui Mo’s body into ashes.

After Long Yufei retrieved the Provincial Governor’s Seal, a black shadow broke through the air and rushed towards Chu Chen.

“Be careful!”

Long Yufei was shocked. A Martial Saint whose cultivation was sealed should have turned into ashes under the bombardment of the Provincial Governor’s Seal, even if he had a Saint Body. How could he still be alive?

No, it’s an evil spirit.

It’s Elder Shui Mo’s curse.

But this curse came too fast. No one could react before it had already entered Chu Chen’s body.

“Ah, Little Brother, something ran into your body.”

Chu Xin cried out, pulling Chu Chen and touching him all over, searching non-stop.

Chu Chen looked bewildered, “What is it? It came so fast.”

Long Yufei was also anxious, but she had no way to deal with curses. She turned to look at Elder Huo Mo and said in a deep voice, “How do we remove the curse?”

Elder Huo Mo shook his head and sighed, “Once a curse is formed, it cannot be removed.”

His face was full of sympathy, but his heart was already filled with joy.

Everything that happened today made him furious. Finally, there was something that could make him happy.

“Ah! What is this thing?”

Just then, a scream came from within Chu Chen’s body.

Everyone turned to look and saw some golden runes faintly flowing inside Chu Chen’s body. They were the Divine Marks on his bones.

As the Divine Marks flowed, a strand of Divine Mark power floated out and landed on the black shadow. Then, a series of shrill screams were heard, and the black shadow turned into strands of black smoke that emerged from Chu Chen’s body and dissipated with the wind.
