Ling Tian Sword God

Chapter 1233: Chapter 1232: Inconceivable

At this moment, outside the Empress’s Palace, the Court Eunuch was still guarding outside the hall. However, his heart couldn’t help but stir up waves because Ling Chen had entered the Empress’s Palace almost an entire hour ago, yet there was still no sign of him coming out.

Could it be that Ling Chen plans to spend the night in the Empress’s Palace?

The more the Court Eunuch thought about it, the more he felt something was amiss. What kind of significant matter could it be that Empress Yunyao would summon Ling Chen to her chamber? Could it be that Empress Yunyao truly intends to favor Ling Chen?

At this thought, the young Court Eunuch’s heart surged with jealousy. Over the years, Empress Yunyao treated men like dirt and had never favored anyone. Yet, unexpectedly, she made an exception for Ling Chen.

He slowly walked closer to the chamber’s door. Just as he was about to eavesdrop on the commotion inside, suddenly, with a ”bang,” the chamber doors flung open, and a figure burst out from within the chamber, the violent gust nearly sending the young Court Eunuch flying!

”Is that...Ling Chen?”

The young Court Eunuch saw Ling Chen’s face clearly, and couldn’t help but be shocked. What exactly happened inside that made Ling Chen come out in such a hurry, looking particularly disheveled? Could it be that this lad fought inside the chamber?

Just as he was watching Ling Chen’s silhouette disappear and was puzzled, suddenly, an angry and sharp female voice came from within the chamber, ”Ling Chen! You despicable thing, I will execute your nine relations!”

The voice was so piercing that the young Court Eunuch’s eardrums vibrated non-stop. He almost couldn’t believe that this voice was from the usually noble and holy Empress Yunyao.

However, now was not the time for him to think too much. Upon hearing Empress Yunyao’s furious voice, he immediately scrambled towards the inside of the chamber.

But when he dashed into the depths of the chamber in a flash and saw the scene inside, he was utterly dumbfounded.

In his sight, Empress Yunyao was barely clothed, large areas of her snow-white skin exposed to the air, nothing like her usual dignified appearance, as if she had just been violated. He had never seen Empress Yunyao in such a state.

The young Court Eunuch was stunned in place, then reacted, and his complexion immediately darkened. ”Unexpectedly, Ling Chen is so audacious! Even daring to offend the Empress, he’s doomed. Empress, you just need a Holy Command to execute his nine relations, leaving him no place to rest in peace!”

Seeing Empress Yunyao disheveled and gritting her teeth in hatred, his first reaction was that Ling Chen had violated Empress Yunyao. Thinking that the holy and dignified Empress had been taken advantage of by Ling Chen, the young Court Eunuch immediately wanted to rush out, capture Ling Chen, and execute him on the spot.

”He offended me? You need to consider, even if he has the courage, does he have the strength?”

Empress Yunyao bit her silver teeth and coldly said.

”Could it be that the lad didn’t offend the Empress?”

The young Court Eunuch was stunned, then quickly reacted. Indeed, how could Ling Chen be a match for Empress Yunyao? Not to mention openly, even covertly, it would be impossible for him to harm her, let alone violate her.

”It’s all your useless fault!”

Empress Yunyao glared fiercely at the young Court Eunuch, ”Didn’t you say that using this Love Intoxicated Powder would turn even a gentleman into a debauched libertine? Why didn’t it work on him?!”

Under Empress Yunyao’s seemingly murderous gaze, the young Court Eunuch couldn’t help but shiver. So this Love Intoxicated Powder was meant for Ling Chen! When Empress Yunyao asked for this thing earlier, he wondered what it was for. Unexpectedly, it was for Ling Chen?

At this thought, the young Court Eunuch’s eyes suddenly widened, and he showed an incredulous expression. Could it be that what happened in the chamber wasn’t Ling Chen trying to violate Empress Yunyao, but Empress Yunyao drugging Ling Chen, intending to ”favor” Ling Chen instead?

He actually guessed right!

However, what surprised him most was not this, but that Empress Yunyao had brought herself to him and even used the Love Intoxicated Powder, yet was unsuccessful and let Ling Chen escape?

If this matter were to spread, the entire world would likely be in an uproar.

Wait, why did Ling Chen want to escape?

With Empress Yunyao’s unparalleled beauty and status, countless men would wish to be favored by her, yearning for the Empress’s attention—infinite Youth Kings, worldly powerhouses, none had caught Empress Yunyao’s eye, yet Ling Chen, in the face of the Empress’s active seduction, still ran?

Even without being affected by the Love Intoxicated Powder, any normal man wouldn’t run, right? This opportunity is like a pie falling from the sky.

Could it be that Ling Chen, like him, isn’t a normal man?

”This servant does not know either.”

The young Court Eunuch hurriedly bowed, ”Perhaps the lad doesn’t like women.”

”Impossible.”

Empress Yunyao’s eyes flickered. She knew why Ling Chen rejected her, why he ran away. This result likely stemmed from one reason.

”Xu Ruoyan, it’s because of Xu Ruoyan.”

Empress Yunyao remembered that name, and her heart was filled with a deep sense of defeat.

Unexpectedly, she, the dignified Empress, the Master of the Nine Provinces, would lose to another woman.

Today’s matter was simply a loss of face.

Even now, her face was burning, prideful as she was, she had never suffered such humiliation before.

”Who is Xu Ruoyan?” The young Court Eunuch weakly asked.

”She is Xuannv.”

Empress Yunyao’s tone was freezing, ”Also the one Ling Chen truly likes.”

”Xuannv?”

The young Court Eunuch frowned, ”Xuannv has now become one of the Youth Kings; indeed, she is in the limelight. Nowadays, in the Nine Provinces Land, most of the youth admire Xuannv...”

But before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt the air around become chilling, a cold sweat ran down his back, as Empress Yunyao stared at him with eyes looking like she was about to devour him.

The young Court Eunuch quickly corrected himself, ”However, no matter how outstanding Xuannv is, how can she be compared with you, Empress? If Xuannv is the pretty Peacock, you are the heavenly Phoenix, unmatched in beauty. Ling Chen is blind to not see this; why should you be angry over him and harm your Dragon Form?”

Upon hearing this, Empress Yunyao’s expression finally became better, and then a gleam flashed in her eyes, ”Ling Chen, just wait for me.”

”You are the first to dare treat me this way. I will make you pay.”

”I swear to the heavens; you will regret it!”
