"Then how did you get in? Are there any casualties? Is Su Chuan okay?"
Song Jinxiu asked nervously, "I was teleported here because Song Dalang died, and then I came here." So she suspected that this teleportation array required a blood sacrifice.
"Su Chuan is fine. I might have come in because of Zihu's gold medal."
Su Mo held up the Zihu gold medal in his hand and showed it to Song Jinxiu. Treasure Hunter Junjun quickly sent a telepathic message to Song Jinxiu: "Master, this is indeed a one-way teleportation array medal."
At this time, Cui Zixuan, who was sitting on the formation plate, also saw Su Mo. Seeing the two of them holding hands tightly and looking at each other affectionately, her eyes turned red with jealousy.
Cui Qiu shouted, "Calm your mind and meditate peacefully. He's just a man. When you become the queen, you can have as many men as you want."
Cui Zixuan glared at Song Jinxiu and Su Mo fiercely: Yes, when I become the queen, I can also expand my harem and I won’t care about you, Su Mo anymore.
But she was still unwilling to give up and asked, "Grandpa, can you catch Su Mo?"
When she becomes the queen, she will let Su Mo see her favoring other men and make him crazy and jealous.
Cui Qiu said coldly: "Once the formation is activated, it will not stop. Their luck will all be yours."
As he spoke, he suddenly paused, then looked at the water mirror and frowned, and then he burst into laughter again.
"Hahaha, I see. Hahaha, the Saintess of my Cui family has truly planned everything out. From now on, my Cui family will be the masters of Cangwu. Hahaha..."
Cui Zixuan was also surprised and asked, "I feel like there's another person in the formation, but I can't see who it is. Grandpa, is this person the reason you're so happy?"
Cui Qiu's face was filled with excitement. His skinny body was like a clothes rack, his black robe fluttering around him. He enthusiastically grabbed another handful of talismans with his large, eagle-claw-like hands, covered in age spots, and pressed them into another groove.
Inside the stone chamber, the runes on the stone walls flickered, and the temperature grew higher and higher.
Song Jinxiu and Su Mo were both looking at the Cangwu Emperor Liu Renxiu who suddenly appeared here with shock.
Song Jinxiu asked in surprise, "Father, why are you here too?"
Liu Renxiu glanced at the two of them and said, "I knew you might have come here. Kang Le, are you okay?"
Song Jinxiu quickly shook her head, "I'm fine. Father, do you know where this is? Do you know how to get out?"
Liu Renxiu did not answer her, but looked at the runes that lit up little by little, looking for something in the stone chamber.
He was groping around on the ground from time to time? Song Jinxiu was curious and couldn't help but groping around on the ground as well.
Only then did she realize that the runes on the ground seemed to be slowly rising. If she hadn't felt around with her hands, she wouldn't have noticed.
Liu Renxiu pointed at the raised stone platform in the middle of the stone chamber with a serious expression and said, "Kangle, go up to that stone platform. Su Mo and I will try to pry the rune off and see if we can get it off."
Song Jinxiu didn't suspect anything and walked over and sat cross-legged on the platform.
As soon as she sat down, Liu Renxiu threw something to her, "Kangle, take it."
Song Jinxiu waved her hand and took the thing in her hand, only to find that it was the imperial seal.
Liu Renxiu looked at her and said solemnly, "I'm handing Cangwu over to you. Although you're intelligent, you're simple-minded. I'll let the Minister of War Zhou Kunran and the new Prime Minister Qin Zhong assist you.
The key to governing a country lies in striking a balance between severity and leniency. If the government is lenient, the people will be lazy. If they are lazy, correct them with severity. If the government is lenient, the people will be cruel. If they are cruel, correct them with leniency. Remember this."
Song Jinxiu was a little confused. What was His Majesty going to do? Why did it feel like he was making arrangements for his funeral?
As expected, Liu Renxiu pulled out a dagger and slashed at his wrist. Song Jinxiu screamed in shock and flew up, but was bounced back by the sudden appearance of a transparent barrier.
Blood dripped onto the ground. Su Mo's mind was on Song Jinxiu, so he was startled. He quickly snatched the dagger away and asked in surprise, "Uncle, why did you hurt yourself?"
Liu Renxiu smiled bitterly and said, "Once this formation is activated, only by filling the rune grooves on the ground with the blood of a real dragon can we turn the tide and keep you safe."
What? Is it that ridiculous?
Song Jinxiu said anxiously within the barrier, "That won't work either. Father, don't be impulsive. We will always find a way. Besides, if we really need to use the blood of a real dragon, I am now the crown prince and your daughter. My blood also has dragon energy. I can bleed it out."
Liu Renxiu nodded with relief and said, "You can't do that. You haven't ascended the throne yet. Only my blood can do that."
As Liu Renxiu spoke, he exerted force and blood spurted out. Su Mo pressed on the wound.
Liu Renxiu looked at him in a deep voice and said, "Let go. If my blood is not enough later, you will fill it up."
Su Mo said, "Since my blood is enough, then I will bleed you. If my blood is not enough, Your Majesty can make up for it." As he said this, he was also going to cut his wrists.
Liu Renxiu said in a deep voice, "Duke Zhenguo, please accept my order. If you possessed the true dragon energy, I would be the first to offer you the sacrificial talisman. Unfortunately, you do not have it. I order you to be patient. If my blood is insufficient, you are my nephew, and our blood should be compatible. Therefore, you will be the last to fill it up."
Song Jinxiu looked at Liu Renxiu deeply. His Majesty was willing to risk his life to save her. She had been wondering these days whether His Majesty had ulterior motives in appointing her as the Crown Princess.
"Junjun, break the barrier for me."
Junjun was also confused by this series of changes. When he received Song Jinxiu's order, he jumped up and stabbed the dragon horn at the barrier.
A wave of light vibrated, and the barrier was broken. Song Jinxiu stepped forward and grabbed His Majesty's wrist. With a burst of spiritual power, the wound on His Majesty's wrist had already scabbed over.
Liu Renxiu looked at his wound in shock, then said anxiously, "Kangle, as the crown prince, you must consider the overall situation and make choices, sacrificing small things for the sake of big things."
Song Jinxiu frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "What do you mean by sacrificing the small for the sake of the big? Is the emperor small? In my heart, you are bigger than the entire Cangwu."
Liu Renxiu's heart softened even more. This child was just like that, so he couldn't let her die here.
Song Jinxiu saw that His Majesty's eyes had become firm again. Fearing that he would do something stupid again, she quickly said, "Father, you also said that I am simple-minded, so are you confident in handing Cangwu over to me? So you should live well and live a long life. You still have to take charge of Cangwu. Don't worry, this luck-transfer formation can't trap us."
She quickly instructed Junjun, "Your dragon horn can break the barrier. See if you can break it here."
"Bang bang bang," Junjun jumped up without saying a word and poked the stone wall with the horns on his head.
Junjun was dizzy and dazed from the collision, but the stone wall was not damaged at all.
Liu Renxiu looked at the slowly rising runes with a bit of anxiety. He was afraid that the girl would not agree, so he tried to open the magic circle on the jade seal to trap her, but he forgot that she also had a powerful little beast.
However, no matter how powerful this little beast is, it cannot break the magic circle.
Su Mo said: "Try using explosives."
Song Jinxiu nodded, "Okay."
But there was no explosives in the space, so she had to make some temporarily.
