Chapter 48: Love Is Dead
Tonight, the moon was round and bright, illuminating the land and the Forbidden City.
In the imperial harem, the former Empress’s Palace was magnificent and spacious.
It belonged to Mei Niang now.
After dispersing the maids and eunuchs, she sat alone in the Empress’s Palace.
She wore a placid look on her face as she calmly looked at the mirror.
Reflected in the mirror was a beautiful face.
It was the face of a man’s first love.
It was the face that captured Lin Tianyuan and made him fall in love at first sight.
It was also the face that made his heart pound like mad.
This was probably the face that countless women desired.
But in the very next moment, she reached out and peeled off this face.
She tore off this so-called ‘face of a man’s first love’ like she was ripping off a piece of unwanted skin.
Hiding behind this face was a mountain spirit with a face full of white hair.
It looked weird and ugly.
“Huff, I’ve had enough of this human-faced mask. I have to wear it every day, it suffocates my pores. It’s very uncomfortable to wear.” Mei Niang complained in a low voice.
After she tore off that face, she proceeded to take off her fair skin as if she was removing her clothes.
A mountain spirit— a dark and thin mountain spirit was revealed underneath.
“His Majesty had already told me that he won’t be coming over today. I can finally relax for a bit.” She breathed freely, enjoying the freedom that was hard to come by.
What she didn’t know was that there was actually someone else standing in the same room.
Lin Jiufeng’s Divine Soul!
This mountain spirit couldn’t possibly notice him.
“As expected, Lin Tianyuan was set up by someone.” Lin Jiufeng’s eyes were cold.
He didn’t act rashly. Instead, he left the Empress’s place and went to the Great Council Hall.
At this moment, Lin Tianyuan was still lamenting in the Great Council Hall that his love had arrived too late.
It only came when he was already 30 years old.
He wanted to start a relationship early and have a childhood love, but it was already too late.
In the empty Great Council Hall, Lin Tianyuan was still convincing himself to stay true to his feelings.
Lin Jiufeng couldn’t help but frown upon hearing them.
Boom!
Lin Jiufeng pushed open the door of the Great Council Hall.
Lin Tianyuan was startled.
“Uncle!”
Lin Tianyuan looked at Lin Jiufeng in surprise. He hurriedly greeted him respectfully.
“Hmph, follow me.” Lin Jiufeng didn’t give him a pleasant look.
He turned around and left.
Lin Tianyuan was dumbfounded.
He didn’t know where they were going, but he didn’t dare not to go.
He could only follow Lin Jiufeng from behind.
Gradually, he realized that something was amiss.
They were going to the Empress’s Palace.
There was only a single person living in the Empress’s Palace at this moment.
His beloved concubine, Mei Niang.
“Uncle! Mei Niang is innocent.”
“If you are angry, beat me up. Don’t hurt her,” Lin Tianyuan said in a hurry.
“I won’t hurt her, but I wonder if someone will show mercy later.”
Lin Jiufeng’s footsteps didn’t stop as he sneered.
“Uncle, it’s fine as long as you don’t make a move. I can stop anyone else.”
Lin Tianyuan heaved a sigh of relief and relaxed.
As the Emperor, the only person he was afraid of was Lin Jiufeng.
Lin Jiufeng continued to move forward with Lin Tianyuan.
Along the way, they encountered many maids, guards, and eunuchs.
But these people didn’t seem to have seen them for some reason.
Even though the two clearly passed by in front of them, they acted as if they were never there.
Just like that, they arrived in front of the Empress’ Palace.
The palace was closed and there were guards everywhere.
The lights inside were dim, only revealing a faint shadow.
Lin Tianyuan watched with a smile.
This graceful figure was his beloved concubine.
“But these doors and windows are tightly shut, it’s bad for ventilation,” Lin Tianyuan muttered.
“If she didn’t close the doors and windows completely, how could she relax enough to reveal herself?” Lin Jiufeng said coldly as he directly passed through the door with Lin Tianyuan.
The tightly shut door didn’t serve as an obstruction to the Divine Soul of a Human God.
He brought Lin Tianyuan in and Lin Tianyuan instantly sought for his beloved concubine.
But there was only a mountain spirit in the form of a human in here.
It had white fur all over its body, sharp nails, and wrinkled skin.
It was a demonic beast.
A type of mountain spirit or what the locals call—a mountain ghost.
Lin Tianyuan’s body trembled.
His expression turned green and ugly.
He was so shocked that he couldn’t speak.
He glanced at Lin Jiufeng and shook his head frantically.
“Uncle… It can’t be…” At this moment, Lin Tianyuan trembled as he spoke.
With this, his love died.
He wasn’t stupid, he was just blinded by love.
He yearned for others to love him, and he yearned to love others the same way.
In addition, he became conceited and blinded by his power as the Emperor.
But at this moment, his mind had become crystal clear as he guessed the answers to his questions.
Lin Jiufeng didn’t speak.
He raised his head and gestured for Lin Tianyuan to continue watching.
This Mei Niang didn’t dare to expose herself for too long.
She only revealed herself for less than three minutes before she started putting her disguise back on.
An extremely terrifying mountain spirit put on the skin of a young girl in front of Lin Jiufeng and Lin Tianyuan.
Then, she picked up the so-called ‘face of a man’s first love’s’ and concealed her true face with it.
The Mei Niang who attracted Lin Tianyuan so much has appeared.
She even winked at the mirror.
Lin Jiufeng looked at Lin Tianyuan indifferently.
At this moment, Lin Tianyuan’s face turned red and his body started to tremble.
Extreme anger and shame coated his heart.
His first love!
His love!
He made a lot of sacrifices for this woman…
He thought that he would be blessed, but he didn’t expect everything to be like this.
Lin Tianyuan was so angry that he couldn’t speak.
Under Lin Jiufeng’s expressionless gaze, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Slut, I’m going to kill you!”
All of a sudden, Lin Tianyuan drew his Emperor Sword and let out a loud roar.
He directly charged forward.
Lin Jiufeng released his concealment technique.
Mei Niang was dumbfounded.
She looked at Lin Tianyuan, whose eyes had turned red from anger.
Her heart skipped a beat. She instantly knew that she was in trouble.
“Your Majesty, why are you here?” Mei Niang forced a smile and avoided the sword.
Her body and mind were nimble, revealing the fact that she had a cultivation base.
“I’ll kill you!” Lin Tianyuan was about to go crazy.
To him, this was a great humiliation. He was deceived by a mountain spirit.
He couldn’t wait to cut this slut into pieces and turn her into minced meat.
Lin Jiufeng watched calmly as Lin Tianyuan’s love turned into hatred.
How much he loved her just now was how much he hated her right now.
Lin Tianyuan’s love died completely.
“Don’t kill her. You must capture her and interrogate her carefully. There must be someone behind her, find out who that person is.” Lin Jiufeng looked at the crazed Lin Tianyuan as he coldly gave an order.
Lin Tianyuan, who was still chasing after Mei Niang, immediately stopped.
Then, he roared in fury. “Nameless, catch this b*tch! Arrest her maids and eunuchs too! Interrogate them strictly! I want this mastermind behind all of these to die!”
Nameless immediately appeared. He was only at the Martial Sage Realm, yet his appearance caused Mei Niang’s face to turn pale with fright. Turning around, she hurriedly tried to escape.
But she was only good with charming skills not with fighting.
How could she be a match for a Martial Sage?
With a single move, she was captured.
Lin Tianyuan’s hand that was holding the sword trembled slightly.
He wished to do nothing but separate her head from her shoulders right this instant.
The so-called first love’s face whom he had fallen in love with had now turned into something grotesque in his heart.
“Uncle, thank you. Otherwise, I would have been forced to eternal damnation.”
Lin Tianyuan tried his best to control his emotions as he expressed his gratitude to Lin Tianyuan.
“Settling all the mistakes that you have made during this period of time is the greatest display of gratitude that you can do for me. Since you’re that stupid, then don’t talk about feelings anymore. You cannot win against them.” Lin Jiufeng scolded without holding back.
After his scolding, he turned around and disappeared, leaving with him a few words of advice. “Investigate this matter thoroughly. How can the Emperor of the Yuhua God Dynasty be played around like this by them?”
“We can’t let them off without making them pay the price in blood!”
Lin Tianyuan’s gaze turned vicious as he said, “Yes!”
