2430 This Bewitchingly Dazzling Fire
The empress smacked the table with all her might. "Rong Yue, you think you can disguise the truth from His Majesty with a confession to false charges under torture?"
Duan Yue kicked that old woman's back and merely uttered, "Speak."
"Yes, Her Majesty the Empress had provided the poison pill to Beauty Wang. Her Majesty the Empress is, is the mastermind. Ah…" Nanny Li suddenly got smacked by the gust of wind the empress sent from her palm, and she rolled to the floor.
She lay there while at her last gasp. She barely moved at all.
"Empress, what else do you have to say?"
"You want to frame this empress with just one old woman's side of the story? Rong Yue, you have a lot of guts!"
"Ha." A cold light flitted across Duan Yue's eyes. He flipped his palm, and a cluster of bewitchingly dazzling silvery white flames sprouted from his fingertips.
The whole hall was shocked!
The crown prince Rong Li was practically glaring at this fourth brother of his as if he were a monster.
He had clearly remembered that this man wielded a grade-nine water spirit. Then this baffling dazzling silvery white flame… was, was it??
"The? The Demon Emperor's Fire! The Demon Emperor's Fire!!" The emperor jumped up emotionally as he looked at his son in astonishment.
The Demon Emperor's Fire had appeared in his son's hand after vanishing for a millenium.
In other words, after his son received the Demon Emperor's inheritance from the ancestral temple, he, he had awakened the Demon Emperor's Fire?
The crown prince Rong Li looked at Duan Yue with a complex gaze. He could not tell whether he was feeling jealousy more or terror more.
On the other hand, the empress's face had become extremely distorted. She shook uncontrollably with fear and trepidation.
How could this be?
How could Noble Consort Duan's son inherit the Demon Emperor's Fire?
This was impossible! Her son Rong Li was a chronic invalid from birth, so his talent in cultivation was not great, but who knew, who knew that…
That bastard Rong Yue had not only inherited the Demon Emperor's inheritance, he had also awakened the Demon Emperor's Fire. Yet he had only, only revealed it today!
He was truly a schemer!
He had hidden it so well.
"I can kill you with a single thought! Would I even need to frame you? Fool." Duan Yue dissed Empress Liu without holding back. "What kind of world do you think this Ultramarine Province is?"
"Do you know what it means that the strong are respected? In my eyes, you are merely an ant!"
*Bam!* Empress Liu slumped into her seat. Her lips kept quivering, but she could not utter a single word.
"Imperial Father, this son requests for this woman to be severely punished!" Duan Yue pointed at Empress Liu and declared without reserve.
"No, you have no evidence at all." Rong Li quickly walked up and argued, "You cannot prove with just Nanny Li's side of the story that Imperial Mother poisoned Noble Consort Duan! You…"
"This prince says it is her, so it is her!" Duan Yue cut off the crown prince's words.
At this moment, Rong Li felt that this guy was finally flashing the sinister claws he had been hiding in the dark. He finally revealed his ambition and desire, openly laying out everything for them to see.
The crown prince Rong Li's expression turned pale and unsightly for the moment. He felt that his breathing also started getting labored.
He did not expect this Rong Yue to give him so much pressure.
