Chang Er turned her head slowly when she perceived Darryl’s gaze. Her eyes were full of tears when she looked at
him!
“Darryl?”
Chang Er frowned. Her beautiful face looked like she was ashamed and angry!
A few months ago, Darryl had released Zhu Bajie. At that time, the man had used the Transfiguration Powder and
pretended to be Emperor Hou Yi. Chang Er would never forget how he played a trick on her.
“What’s the matter?” An icy voice echoed from Chang Er’s mouth. Her powerful aura was beyond anyone’s doubt.
“Lady Chang Er!”
Gonggong stepped forward and said respectfully, “I was patrolling just now and found Darryl, so I’ve arrested him!
Darryl let Zhu Bajie go, so he is a criminal!”
Mmm…
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChang Er nodded silently. Then, she waved her jade-like hand. “Lock him up!”
If that had happened earlier, Chang Er would definitely find a way to teach Darryl a lesson. However, Emperor Hou
Yi had only passed away; she did not have the heart to do anything because she was heartbroken.
“Yes, Lady Chang Er!” Gonggong replied. Then, she leaned in and whispered into Chang Er’s ear. “Lady Chang Er,
why don’t you let me interrogate Darryl?”
Gonggong showed a faint sly smile when she made the suggestion. If Darryl was imprisoned, she would not have a
chance to snatch the Heavenly Halberd. She would only get that chance if Darryl were in her hands!
Chang Er did not reply to her. Yang Jian walked toward the royal guard captain and asked, “You said that you found
a clue to His Majesty’s death. What is it?”
Phew!
The royal guard captain took a deep breath and pointed at the jade platform under Emperor Hou Yi. “Grandmaster,
the clue is on the jade platform under His Majesty’s body. When His Majesty was dying, he engraved a few words on
the jade platform.”
Yang Jian frowned and asked impatiently, “What are the words?”
“The words engraved by His Majesty are…” The captain sweated profusely. He glanced nervously at Chang Er and
then lowered his voice. “The words are Zhu Bajie and Chang Er!”
The captain was nervous; he felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his throat.
He was not a fool. He knew that it was not a trivial matter when he saw those engraved characters. He told no one
about it; he covered them with the Emperor’s body and went to look for Yang Jian. The man’s status was only
second to the Emperor. Only he could question Chang Er!
What?
Yang Jian was startled to hear that; he looked at Chang Er in disbelief!
“Lady Chang Er!” Yang Jian said coldly, “I hope you can explain that!”
Everyone shifted their attention to Chang Er.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Explain?” Chang Er shuddered, and she looked confused. “What do you want me to explain?”
The captain had spoken to Yang Jian in a tiny voice, so no one heard him. That was why Chang Er was stunned when
Yang Jian asked her for an explanation.
Yang Jian walked forward and lifted Emperor Hou Yi’s body. Then, he pointed to the lettering on the jade platform.
“How do you explain this?”
What?
Chang Er looked at the words; she was shocked.
Whoa!
Everyone in the room was in an uproar.
They saw the words—Zhu Bajie, Chang Er—had been carved on the jade platform. It was obviously written with
one’s deep internal energy.
It was apparent that Emperor Hou Yi was the one who carved it before he died.
The jade platform was for cultivation, and it was made ten thousand years ago. It was tough, so not even Martial
Emperor or Heaven Ascension elites could do it. Only Emperor Hou Yi could do that!
