With his hands behind his back, he ate a melon, and the country's fortune soared.

Zhou Mu never thought that his life would end in a moment.

My vision gradually blurred and the seventy-year-old emperor in front of me was smiling wickedly. Isn’t she an emperor?

She is an extremely noble emperor, how could she act so decisively?

The dagger stabbed towards Zhou Mu's throat, and Qian Qian kept an eye on Zhou Mu to prevent him from doing anything weird again.

While being alert to the dozen young men in white clothes around him, Zhou Mu was unable to speak at all.

He was unable to give any orders, so the young men in white just stood there motionless.

Although Ruo'er's arms were controlled by the white-clothed men and she couldn't move, she couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "No, aren't these white-clothed men really living people?"

Qian Qian turned his wrist, and blood flowed from Zhou Mu's throat.

[Money, money,] the system prompts, [Zhou Mu has been killed.]

[However, strangely, I am a bit slow in eating melons, so you must be very careful. ]

【slow?】

Qian Qian tilted his head and slowly pulled the dagger out of Zhou Mu's throat with disgust.

She really didn't want the blood of this damn thing to splash all over her, [Why is it so slow? ]

[Is it because you are the leader of our Great Xia that it is inconvenient to eat foreigners' melons? ]

system……

[You will be heartbroken. ]

【But I don’t think so, maybe there are some reasons I don’t know. 】

[Qianqian, you still need to be more careful, even more careful.]

【it is good. 】

Qian Qian put away his playful expression and finally carefully pulled the dagger out of Zhou Mu's throat.

No matter how careful she was, some of his blood still splashed on her body, and Qianqian curled her lips in disgust.

He raised his hand and was about to save Ruo'er when the system suddenly shouted, "Money, be careful."

Chi Chi.

Qian Qian was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He raised his sword and struck the target before Qing Chao even saw what was attacking him.

sizzle.

"Eh," Rong Lu looked disgusted even though he was being pressed down, "It's a pitch-black bug, so ugly."

Qian Qian was terrified, [Tongzi, what is this? ]

[This is the Western dragon that restricts your space. ]

The system breathed a sigh of relief. [Who would have thought that Zhou Mu, that psychopath, would hide this thing in his hair.]

[Ouch, I was so scared. ]

Qian Qian felt a little uncomfortable and frowned as he first dealt with all the men in white who were holding Ruo'er and Rong Lu.

Ruo'er finally got free and hugged Qianqian, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty finally sees you again. It has been many years since we last met, and you are still so beautiful, woo woo woo..."

Money money...

Before he could open his mouth, there was a loud bang above his head.

As the stone fell, a beam of light was cast in front of everyone's eyes, and Qian Qian hurriedly took out a flare from the space.

"It was the Emperor who bombed the underground city. This is the flare I used to communicate with her. I sent this thing up into the sky."

"Yes."

Ruoer immediately put away her touched expression, stared at the rocks falling above her head and raised the flare.

Rong Lu carefully protected her head, and Qian Qian tried to put the dagger into the space.

[Tongzi, my space has been restored. ]

As he spoke, he jumped towards the pentagram formation, quickly leaped onto the stone pillar and gently placed his hand on Xiao Hei.

Put Xiao Hei into the space and let Qian Qian soak it in the red juice.

In the space, San Ya, Chi Yan and Er Dan followed the sound and saw Xiao Hei, who was dying, with sorrow on his face.

Qian Qian saw that Xiao Hei's breathing was gradually getting stronger, so he breathed a sigh of relief and flew to the stone pillar next to him.

The person tied to the stone pillar was Lin Yue. Qian Qian carefully untied the rope and carried the person to the ground.

He then wrapped her arm tightly with a handkerchief soaked in red juice and went to save the next one.

Qian Qian was busy rescuing people here, while Xiao Ying had already seen the flare shot into the sky from the wilderness in mid-air.

"That's it," Xiao Ying narrowed his eyes.

The secret guard hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, that is the signal flare of the Emperor Emeritus."

Xiao Ying quickly raised his hand, "Stop the bombing."

"Yes."

The intensive bombing was temporarily stopped, and Qianqian let the airship hover over the flare launching site.

With the help of a telescope, she discovered that there seemed to be a stone chamber hidden under the wasteland.

"Send a few people," she ordered in a deep voice, "to provide support."

"Yes."

The secret guards climbed the ropes of the airship and landed in the wasteland one after another.

Ruo'er and Rong Lu saw the black-clad secret guards above the stone chamber and smiled at each other.

Qian Qian had already let everyone down from the stone pillar, bandaged Fang Ziqi's wrist, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

[Tongzi, how is it? ]

[Is there anything wrong with this altar? ]

The system was silent for a long time. After a long silence, all the dull men in white had been dealt with by the secret guards, and then the system spoke coldly.

[Qianqian,] he said in a flustered voice, [I, I seem to have been misled.]

Qian Qian's eyes were solemn. [What do you mean?]

The system took a deep breath, [Zhou Mu was just pushed to the front to take the blame, and he seems to be part of this heart-digging game. ]

Qian Qian's heart skipped a beat.

"The Great Emperor."

A secret guard came forward and Qian Qian pointed at Fang Ziqi and the others, "Send them out, be careful."

"Yes."

After quickly giving the order, she continued to ask, "Tongzi, so you mean that I accidentally triggered this heart-digging game?"

The system exhaled deeply, and said in a sad tone, [Yes.]

[That Zhou Mu, when you killed him, you used the dagger that cut your palm.]

Money money...

[So, Zhou Mu himself and the formation have become one.]

[In other words,] Qian Qian's shoulders trembled, [Zhou Mu has already taken my blood.]

Even the small amount of blood on the dagger might be enough.

The system said, [There is also the evil dragon that restricts your space. That dragon is also part of this formation.]

【Qianqian,】 his voice trembled, 【I’m sorry.】

Qian Qian closed his eyes and said, "Tongzi, now is not the time to apologize."

He looked at the pentagram altar with a serious expression, [Think of a solution, even if it's only temporary.]

Qian Qian was also racking his brains, [If it doesn't work, let Ying'er find all the Taoist priests, monks, magicians, Miao witches, high priests, etc. to come and find a solution. ]

【A monk?】

The system growled, [Yes, monk.]

[Money, monk Saba's relics may be able to temporarily slow down the pace of the heart-digging scheme.]

【Relics?】

Qian Qian immediately took out the box containing the relic from the space, [Will this really work? ]

[Okay,] the system said confidently, [follow my instructions.]

【it is good. 】

Qian Qian looked solemn, and followed the system's instructions to place the monk Saba's relics in designated locations one by one.

A relic was placed on each corner of the pentagram formation, and the largest relic was placed in the center of the formation.

Qian Qian sighed, "This, this relic of Monk Saba is exactly six pieces."

The system also said, [There is no coincidence in the world. ]

[However,] he was a little confused, [this is only a temporary solution.]

[We will wait for seven days. If the formation fails after seven days, we will not have to worry about it anymore.]

[But if the formation shows signs of success, then we have to think of other ways. ]

Qian Qian fixed the relic while listening to the systematic explanation.

At this time, a secret guard came quickly and said, "Grand Emperor, His Majesty intends to bomb the underground city again. She ordered me to take you out."
