2576 Chapter 2,467 had already been forgotten (fifth watch)
However, the person who had ambushed them had astonishing strength. Under the heaven extinguishing seal, they were only lightly injured.
The garden rolled and they fled.
Su Yu immediately chased after them!
However, at the instant he chased after them, another figure barged in and took the spatial storage item from Empress Starry Rain’s hands when no one was around.
However, Empress Starry Rain, who was clearly drunk, suddenly opened her black and white eyes.
Without thinking, she crushed a jade talisman.
Although the Jade Talisman wasn’t as high-grade as the Heavenly Dao master’s fragrance sack, the power contained within it far surpassed that of an ordinary tunnel lord.
The second sneak attacker was instantly struck and spat out blood.
He was instantly severely injured by Empress Starry Rain.
The latter held onto his injured body and ran away in a panic.
However, before Empress Starry Rain could chase after him, the entire roof shattered with a rumble.
The third Earth Path Master appeared and grabbed Empress Starry Rain’s wrist, snatching away her spatial storage item.
Empress starry rain was shocked and was about to fight to the death when she suddenly remembered Su Yu’s warning.
Life was the most important thing!
She had no choice but to let the other party snatch the spatial storage item.
However, the other party had just escaped when the little qilin came out from the darkness prepared. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of nine nether jade flames.
The tunnel master could not avoid it in time and was directly spat out by the nine Nether Jade Flames. He was burned to the point of screaming miserably on the spot.
“This voice...”clearly, Empress starry rain recognized the origin of the voice. She was both angry and angry.
However, the other party was an earth path master after all, and it wasn’t something that could be killed with a single nine Nether Jade Flame.
Even though the other party was injured, he still managed to escape successfully.
By the time Empress Starry Rain chased after him, the other party had already fled and disappeared without a trace.
Not long after, Su Yu returned as well.
The heaven destruction seal in his hand was still burning with a high temperature.
It was clear that he had used the heaven destruction seal many times during the chase.
However, the other party was too strong, so the heaven extinguishing seal was unable to do anything to her.
“My Netherworld Crystal!”Empress Starry Rain squatted on the ground, tears welling up in her eyes.
The Netherworld crystal she had prepared for so many years had been snatched away again!
If this news were to reach the ears of a ruler, her position as empress would definitely be lost.
“Why are you crying? It’s just a Little Netherworld Crystal.”Su Yu patted her back.
Empress starry rain raised her head. She wanted to laugh, but she really couldn’t.
How was that a little nether crystal?
It was a whole 50 billion worth of nether crystals.
Where was he going to find it now?
“Take a look at what this is.”Su Yu took out a spatial storage device and placed it in front of Empress Starry Rain.
“What?”Empress Starry Rain said dejectedly.
Su Yu smiled faintly. “Won’t you know if you look inside?”
Empress Starry Rain’s eyes were filled with tears as she swept her gaze inside.
However, when she swept her gaze inside, Empress Starry Rain jumped up from the ground in shock. “Netherworld Crystals? There are so many Netherworld Crystals!”
The amount inside was neither too much nor too little. It was exactly worth 50 billion.
“This is the one that I lost... No!”Empress Starry Rain’s Netherworld crystals were generally not of high quality.
But the nine nether crystal inside was of a frighteningly high grade.
The highest grade was third grade, and the lowest grade was sixth grade!
“It’s You?”Empress Starry Rain’s small mouth was wide open as she looked at Su Yu in disbelief.
Countless questions surfaced in her mind.
Where did Su Yu get so many nine nether crystals?
“Shh! Watch the Show!”Su Yu chuckled and said.
It seemed like he was trying to verify Su Yu’s words.
The next day, early in the morning.
The ruler’s emissary, who had already left, returned breathlessly.
His face was ashen, and he immediately berated, “Empress Starry Rain, you have disappointed the ruler greatly! You actually lost an important netherworld crystal for the second time!”
HM?
Although empress starry rain was simple, she wasn’t too stupid.
She had strictly ordered the people in the residence not to tell anyone about the loss of the Netherworld Crystal.
How did the emissary know?
Besides, didn’t he already leave?
How did he suddenly receive the news and rush back?
No matter how one looked at it, it seemed like the emissary knew in advance that the Netherworld Crystal would be lost a second time, right?
“I, the emissary, will enforce the law impartially and report to the ruler. Empress Starry Rain is not doing well and has repeatedly lost the Netherworld Crystal,”the emissary said angrily and immediately took out his communication jade formula.
Empress starry rain finally understood why Su Yu wanted her to watch a good show.
This emissary was really putting on a Show!
She slowly took out her spatial storage device and said with a faint smile, “Who said that the Netherworld Crystal was lost? My Netherworld Crystal has always been in my hands. I don’t know who told the emissary that my Netherworld Crystal has been lost.”
The emissary laughed angrily, “Empress, you don’t have to hide it anymore. I already know.”
Empress starry rain smiled and tapped her finger on the spatial storage device. The storage device immediately opened and nine nether crystals that were as tall as mountains rolled out.
If not for the size of the hall, the entire hall would have collapsed.
The emissary was dumbfounded and could not believe what he saw.
“You... you...”the emissary was so shocked that he could not speak.
Could it be that Empress Starry Rain had a second plan?
Impossible!
However, the nine nether crystal in front of him rendered him speechless.
“Emissary, you must report the truth and put in a good word for me in front of Father.”Empress Starry Rain looked at the emissary’s face, which alternated between red and green, and her heart bloomed with joy.
The emissary took back the Jade Seal. His expression flickered for a moment before he cupped his fists and said, “Since the nine nether crystal has not been lost, then I shall take my leave.”
He was about to leave with his face covered in dust.
However, Su Yu stopped him. “Emissary, don’t be impatient. I want to give you a gift!”
At that time --
In the outskirts of the city.
An injured black-robed man sneakily arrived outside the city.
“I’ve got the item. give it to Emperor Shao Hao,”the black-robed man said to the air.
A gray-robed youth emerged from the darkness and took the spatial storage item from the black-robed man.
He swept it inside and found 50 billion nine nether crystals.
“Hehe, I told you that digging for the silly empress would be a waste. It would only add to the wealth of our great Emperor Shaohao.”The gray-robed youth chuckled.
He put away the spatial storage device and said, “Mm, this trip was worth it. Let’s wait and see if Empress Starry Rain is deposed from the throne. When that time comes, she won’t be able to live for long without Emperor Shaohao’s help.”
Many forces were secretly hostile toward the descendants of the ruler of time.
If Empress Starry Rain lost her greatest support -- the position of Empress -- who knew how many forces would emerge from the shadows and kill her.
“Let’s Go!”He put on the bamboo hat in satisfaction and prepared to secretly leave the southern part of the dream boundary.
However, after taking a few steps, he didn’t hear any movement behind him. He couldn’t help but look back. “Let’s go, what are you waiting for...”
However, the gray-robed young man’s pupils constricted bit by bit.
This was because the Earth Dao master expert in his eyes stood there motionlessly.
On his chest, a bloody palm passed through his back and squeezed his heart into his palm.
As his five fingers clenched, his heart shattered.
The Earth Dao master expert immediately fell to the ground and died, revealing a woman in a bamboo hat behind him.
“Who are you?”The gray-robed young man swallowed hard.
The bamboo hat man smiled faintly. “Why, have you forgotten me so quickly? Not long ago, you said you had already remembered me.”
