Creation of the Universe

Chapter 49 Past Cause and Effect

Shen Zhan watched everything happening in front of him silently, his heart calm.

No matter how cruel the means used to deal with a sinister villain like the queen, he would not feel it was excessive.

"Queen, Queen, what's wrong with you?"

"Is it some kind of witchcraft?"

The two assassins rushed to the queen's side, but they could not find out what method Shen Zhan had used.

When they were helpless and could only watch their mistress in excruciating pain, the queen grabbed one person's arm and looked at Shen Zhan.

"Yes, Queen, I will kill him right now!"

The assassin guessed that this must be what the queen meant, but when he was about to turn around, he was grabbed tightly by the queen.

"No...please...beg him!"

The queen uttered two words with difficulty, was she actually begging Shen Zhan to show mercy?

The two assassins had just laughed at Shen Zhan, but now they had to beg him to stop in a humble manner. It was really an embarrassing thing.

But now, unless they can free the queen with their own abilities, they can only ask Shen Zhan for mercy. If anything happens to the queen, they will surely be killed when they return.

After weighing the pros and cons, the two assassins knelt unwillingly in front of Shen Zhan, begging him to spare the queen's life.

"Please show some mercy, my lord. The Queen is from the royal family of Lingzhou after all. If we create a mortal enemy, it will be a huge disaster for you in the future. Why should we both take a step back?"

The Wang family of Lingzhou is one of the oldest families in the history of Hongguo. Especially in the current Tiande Dynasty, its power is at its peak.

The queen was born into the Wang family and was naturally protected by the family. If Shen Zhan killed her today, he would be hunted down by countless masters assigned by the Wang family, and they would not let him go even if he fled to the ends of the earth.

This is exactly the confidence that the two assassins had in speaking to Shen Zhan. They seemed to be begging, but in fact it was a threat.

Shen Zhan smiled coldly and said to the queen, "I am the one who decides your life and death, and you still want to threaten me? Why don't you take a gamble and see if I dare to kill you?"

How can you gamble on matters involving your life?

The queen quickly raised her voice and shouted with all her might, "Shen Zhan, I'm telling you who put the ban on you. Stop it now!"

Seeing that the queen was finally willing to give in, Shen Zhan withdrew his spiritual power, and the severe pain in the queen's body gradually subsided until she could no longer feel the pain.

The queen, who was tortured to exhaustion, was barely able to stand up with the help of others. She looked at Shen Zhan with a bit of resentment and fear in her eyes.

"Now you can tell me, who ordered you to put restrictions on me?"

The queen replied, "When I learned you possessed the Holy Blood of the Heavenly Star, I decided to eliminate the threat once and for all. So I asked my brother Wang Tonghai to place a restriction on you. This would sever your talent and prevent you from threatening my son's position in the palace in the future."

After many years, the queen finally revealed the secret herself.

After King Jinning learned the truth, a bitter taste rose in his heart. "So this is actually the case! I always thought Shen Zhan was mediocre and incompetent, but it turns out you were the one who was interfering!!!"

"Hmph, the Tianchen Holy Blood in Shen Zhan's body is truly extraordinary. If he were to grow up one day, would there be any hope for my son? It's the way of the world to strike first. What's so surprising about that?"

The queen spoke confidently and did not feel that there was anything wrong with her behavior.

Perhaps the Wang family in Lingzhou where she grew up was filled with the family tradition of being profit-driven and unscrupulous, which made her become such a vicious woman.

But Shen Zhan didn't care about these. He continued to ask, "What about my mother? How did she die? Don't tell me it was your plan."

The queen raised her head, looked Shen Zhan in the eye and said, "I don't know anything about your mother's origins or the cause of her death. My family will take responsibility for anything I dare to do. I will never take responsibility for anything I didn't do."

Shen Zhan then looked at King Jinning. At this time, a burst of light and hurried footsteps came from behind him.

"Brother! Li'er is here!"

"None of you dare to hurt my brother!"

Shen Yunli leaped to Shen Zhan's side, and suddenly all the spiritual power in his body burst out, directly forcing the two assassins closest to them back several steps.

Only one day had passed, and Shen Yunli was already able to use spiritual power at will. Her talent for the ninth-level Dao was indeed terrifyingly powerful.

When Shen Zhan saw Shen Yunli, he smiled with relief, "Li'er, I have avenged you and relieved your anger. If you think this is not enough, I can kill this woman right away."

Shen Yunli saw the palace guards surrounding him and the two assassins standing in front of the queen, and replied, "Kill them, count me in."

At this moment, King Jinning's heart suddenly skipped a beat. If things continued like this, the situation would become extremely bad.

Shen Yunli is a chess piece that he has high hopes for. If she follows Shen Zhan to rebel against the Jinning Palace, not to mention what will happen here tonight, the royal family will definitely be severely damaged in the future and will never recover.

"Wait a minute!"

"Shen Zhan, you need to calm down. Things don't have to get to this point."

King Jinning proposed to Shen Zhan in a tone he had never used before, "How about this? I will let you leave the city freely tonight and will not stop you from killing the Crown Prince and the others. I will not hold you accountable for killing the Crown Prince and the others.

But for the sake of the palace's reputation, I must expel you from the clan. At the same time, Yunli cannot leave with you. You must know that it will only be more dangerous for her to follow you. I can guarantee that she will never be harmed in the palace!"

"elder brother!"

"If you want to leave, I don't want to stay here!"

Shen Yunli said anxiously.

At this time, the Prime Minister approached the two men and suggested, "Young Master, it is indeed safer for the little princess to stay here. If you have established a foothold outside in the future, you can return to take her away. Until then, I can guarantee with my own life that the little princess will be taken care of in the best possible way, and no treacherous person will be allowed to use any despicable means against her."

Shen Zhan nodded solemnly.

To him, the King of Jinning's guarantee was nothing, and only the Prime Minister's promise made him feel at ease.

"Li'er, if I take you away, the Queen will definitely send people to hunt you down. I'll have to protect you then, which will be very inconvenient.

So you should listen to me and stay in the palace for the time being. You should practice well whenever you have time. This time I have brought you a gift. Taking this Morning Dew with the Xuanling Pill can help you improve your practice.

Chen Fang from the alchemy room is one of us, he will help you refine the Xuanling Pill."

Shen Zhan whispered some instructions, and although Shen Yunli was reluctant, she still nodded sensibly.
