Chapter 84: Chapter 68: The Empress’s Thoughts! The Imperial Consort is Very Angry! (4K)

The atmosphere in the Dining Hall was eerily silent.

Looking at Chen Mo, who had a nosebleed and had lost consciousness, Lin Jingzhu’s expression solidified, and the spoon in her hand dropped onto the table with a "clack".

"Auntie, did you poison the soup?!"

"..."

The Empress glared at her, "Do you think I’m that stupid?"

Lin Jingzhu calmed down. Indeed, even if the Empress wanted to deal with Chen Mo, she wouldn’t choose to do it in the palace, let alone right in front of her.

She stood up and came to Chen Mo’s side, pressing her palm against his back, allowing True Yuan to circulate inside his body for a round.

"The Qi-Blood is full, the meridians are steady, his body so sturdy that he could kill a buffalo with a single punch, so how could he suddenly faint?" Lin Jingzhu couldn’t understand.

The Empress was also at a loss.

Just a moment ago, he was eating just fine, and after glancing at her, he started to bleed from the nose...

Moreover, Chen Mo’s gaze gave her an odd feeling, as if she had been "seen through", making her feel uncomfortable all over.

"Could it be... it shouldn’t be possible."

The Empress shook her head to dismiss the distracting thoughts.

Looking at the unconscious Chen Mo, her eyes gradually became more serious.

The Zhou Family case had caused a big commotion, with Chen Mo in the vortex’s center; countless eyes were watching him.

If something were to happen to him in the palace, one could imagine the kind of storm it would trigger next!

"Someone, summon Imperial Hospital Envoy Li to the palace!"

"Yes."

The Palace Servant quickly left.

...

In the Frozen Sky Palace.

Inside the pavilion on the lake, Yu Youhan was playing chess with Xu Qingyi.

The chessboard was laid out on the stone table, a battle between black and white pieces.

At first glance, it seemed the white pieces, held by Xu Qingyi, had the advantage.

Snap—

A white piece landed, a move known as "Guiding Passage", a brilliant maneuver that not only resolved the black’s "Head Suppression" but also formed a pattern with surrounding white pieces, trapping the black in the middle.

The game was decided.

Yu Youhan nodded in approval, "Qingyi, your skill in chess has improved quite a bit, it seems I am no longer your match."

Xu Qingyi shook her head and said, "The Empress is just not concentrating on this small board."

To possess such great power yet restrained from using it freely, one must feel quite suppressed spending days trapped within the deep palace, right?

"If that’s the case, let me be the Empress’s hand in playing the chess."

"Leave all those deceit and power struggles to me!"

Xu Qingyi’s gaze was unwavering.

Thud thud thud—

At that moment, footsteps were heard.

A Female Officer walked quickly into the pavilion, bowing and saying, "Begging to inform Your Grace, Hundred Households Chen has entered the palace."

Yu Youhan frowned slightly, "I told him to come after he mastered the Heart Clarity Spell, but only a few days have passed..."

She then seemed to realize something, softening her expression a little, "But considering the recent turmoil in Tiandu City, being caught among the powers must put quite some pressure on him... Forget it, bring him in."

The Female Officer softly said, "Hundred Households Chen didn’t come to the Frozen Sky Palace, but to the Yangxin Palace..."

With that statement, the air suddenly turned a few degrees colder.

Yu Youhan slightly narrowed her eyes, "Yangxin Palace?"

The Female Officer reported truthfully, "The Empress sent a Royal Palanquin to bring Hundred Households Chen into the palace, the Imperial Kitchen has already served food, it should be that they are having lunch together now."

Xu Qingyi looked astonished.

Let alone the Yangxin Palace being what it is...

Having lunch with the Empress?

Even those noble and high-ranking officials never received such treatment!

Yu Youhan’s face was expressionless, masking her emotions.

Yet the chilling pressure, so extreme that it nearly froze the air, spread rime across the lake’s surface, instantly freezing the swimming fish into ice sculptures!

"The last issue with the Flying Phoenix Order, I didn’t set accounts with you, did it give you any misunderstandings?"

"Jiang Yuchan, you are overreaching."

Snap—

A black piece placed firmly.

Yu Youhan rose and left.

Gentle breezes passed, and under Xu Qingyi’s shocked gaze, all the white pieces, along with the chessboard, all turned to dust.

...

Inside the inner hall of Yangxin Palace.

Chen Mo lay quietly on the bed.

An elderly woman with silver hair was seated in front, her hands radiating with brilliance that enveloped him.

Imperial Hospital Envoy Li Wanjun, known for bringing the dead back to life and mending bones, was hailed as a Medical Saint who could snatch lives from the King of Hell!

As long as a breath still remained, one would find it difficult to die under her care!

However, after some examination, Li Wanjun’s brows were furrowed, and she remained silent for a long time.

Seeing her solemn expression, Lin Jingzhu’s heart turned half cold.

Could it be that Chen Mo had encountered some major issue?

"Imperial Hospital Envoy... is there any chance of saving him?" The Empress asked.

"Hm?"

Imperial Hospital Envoy Li withdrew her hands and stood up, "Your Highness, please be assured, Hundred Households Chen is unharmed, merely an excessive overdraw of Soul Power, causing his consciousness to fall into a coma. He will recover after several days of rest."

"That’s good."

Both the Empress and Lin Jingzhu breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing their reaction, the hospital director knew they misunderstood and smilingly said, "I was just a bit curious, even though Hundred Households Chen is a Sixth-rank Martial Artist, the abundance of his True Yuan, even a fifth-grade couldn’t match."

"The Spirit Platform is opened, and the Divine Soul is shaped. Judging from the extent of the opening, his Soul Power is astonishingly strong."

"Moreover, in his Critical Acupoints, there is a rich life force, such that even if his physical body was destroyed, he could recover quickly..."

Hearing Imperial Hospital Envoy’s words, the Empress was somewhat stunned.

She knew of Chen Mo’s strength that cannot be measured by normal standards, but she didn’t expect it to be so exaggerated!

From that day’s images, it seemed he was also proficient in Array methods... But he was only a young man in his prime, could there really be such a genius in the world?

And he’s solved significant cases, showcasing strong abilities!

"A fledgeling phoenix in the nest, though its feathers are not yet full, is already showing extraordinary poise."

"When the day comes for it to soar high in the sky, stirring the heavens with its cry, attracting it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven."

With these thoughts, the Empress’s intentions became even more resolute.

—She must snatch Chen Mo away from Yu Youhan’s grasp!
