1086 Only One
The Empress had mobilized all her strength. With the black-robed person from the Asura Hall around, she did not think that Xue Fanxin could survive. Even if Ye Jiushang came, it was impossible for him to save her.
Hence, Xue Fanxin was definitely dead this time.
But before that, she had to obtain the antidote.
“Xue Fanxin, quickly hand over the antidote to me, or I have ways to deal with you.”

Initially, I wanted to settle scores with you after dealing with the plague poison, but now it looks like I have to do it early,” Xue Fanxin said with a cold smile. Then, she summoned a spirit butterfly and played with it on her finger. The aura on her body became stronger and stronger, making her look like a queen. The people around her couldn’t help feeling a little afraid.
The Empress had not expected Xue Fanxin to still be so arrogant at a time like this, and she was even more angry than before. She could not stand Xue Fanxin’s arrogant appearance. “Xue Fanxin, even if you have three heads and six arms today, you will only die. I will cut off your flesh piece by piece and let you watch your flesh be eaten by dogs.”
“So the Empress likes this way of doing things! Then I’ll improve your plan and use it on you later to see how effective it is.”
“You’re about to die, yet you still have a sharp tongue. I’ll make you unable to even cry later. Quickly hand over the antidote, or don’t blame me for being impolite.”
“There’s only one antidote. Do you think I should give it to you or your son?”
“You… you’re lying.” The Empress clearly knew that Xue Fanxin was very likely to be lying, but she was still very nervous, afraid that there was really only one antidote.
If there was only one antidote, should it be for her or her son?
The Second Prince panicked. Even if he was suspicious of Xue Fanxin’s words, he was also very panicked, because he knew very well that if there was really only one antidote, then he would definitely not have a share. He could only wait for death.
But so what if he was panicking?
His mother held power and had many capable people under her. He could not win against her at all.
The Empress could tell that her son was beginning to panic. Mother and son turning against each other was definitely not what she wanted to see. If she wanted to avoid such a thing happening, she could only resolve the problem with Xue Fanxin.
“Xue Fanxin, you want to sow discord between my son and I and make us enemies. I won’t let you have your way. Even if there’s really only one antidote, you have to make it two. Otherwise, I have ways to make you wish you were dead.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Then what right do you have to make me wish I were dead? With just this group of people? Empress, your intelligence is really something to worry about, do you know that? Do you think too highly of yourself, or do you underestimate the power of the Ninth Lord’s Estate?”
“What do you mean?”
“You still don’t understand even at this point, which means that your intelligence is really not enough. With your intelligence, even if you have supreme authority, you will be very miserable. You know the power of the Ninth Lord, the Black Shadow Guards, and the Nine Cloud Palace. Just these two forces are enough to make you drink a few pots of regret. If you don’t believe me, let’s give it a try.”
As Xue Fanxin finished speaking, the Black Shadow Guards had already charged into the Grand Preceptor’s Estate. They were extremely fast, and before the people inside could react, a large number of the Empress’s people had already collapsed.
Heilong, Heiyu, Heiyao, Heiran, Heiyue, and the five great leaders of the Black Shadow Guard led people from five places to attack the Grand Preceptor’s Estate. They were unstoppable, and the Empress’ people could not resist at all.
Hai Feng and Zimo also moved out, appearing and disappearing mysteriously to deal with those Saint Realm experts.
Xue Batian and Gu Jinyuan were not idle either. They knew that they were not strong enough, so they specially dealt with the Imperial Guards and Archers.
Not only that, but the people from the Nine Cloud Palace had already arrived and surrounded the Grand Preceptor’s Estate. They did not let go of anyone inside. Rows of bows and arrows were waiting outside.
Zhuri and Fuyun slaughtered their way in and cooperated with the Black Shadow Guards and the others.
In an instant, the Empress’ army was utterly defeated. In less than fifteen minutes, half of them had already collapsed.
