Fantasy: Empress Wife, Cute Kids Cause Havoc in Jiuzhou

"This subordinate respects the State Governor, yet the State Governor repeatedly allows his children to insult this subordinate, such behavior chills our hearts."

The State Governor looked at Long Yufei, his voice cold and full of intense anger.

Long Yufei also noticed the subtlety and her tone cooled down as well, speaking lightly, "State Governor, could it be that you are hard of hearing? Didn’t you hear them call me ’aunt’? They are not my children, and I cannot control them."

"Though you are the State Governor, I, too, was personally appointed by the late Emperor. How could you humiliate me like this?" n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

The State Governor suddenly flipped the table, intending to feign great anger and disrupt Chu Chen’s poison testing.

Unexpectedly, Chu Chen, quick on his feet, moved back slightly, yet not a single drop of the wine spilled from the cup.

Moments later, he took out a silver needle and looked at it excitedly shouting, "Poisonous, poisonous, indeed poisonous. I knew it, that bad person must have poisoned it. Haha, I guessed right."

"The silver needle is as black as ink, not only poisonous but extremely so." Chu Xin also clapped her small hands happily, "Wow! I’ve never seen such a strong poison before, even stronger than the ones prepared by daddy."

The female guards didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, these two little cuties’ thought processes really differed from adults’; they were actually excited about someone poisoning them.

Besides, can someone explain what ’the poison prepared by your daddy’ means?

"State Governor, can you give this official an explanation?"

Long Yufei’s expression darkened, her eyes flickering with intense murderous intent.

The wine is not poisoned, the dishes are not poisoned, but combined they become a deadly poison, how vicious.

If not for the two little cuties, she might have really fallen into a trap this time.

"Hahaha! Who would have thought my plan would be foiled by two mischievous children."

Seeing his plot exposed, the State Governor no longer pretended, laughing heartily to the sky, though the laughter was chillingly cold.

"I just said, this uncle looks just like a villain." Chu Chen stood tall and straight, his chubby little hands behind his back, resembling a sage, adorable yet silly.

"I just said, his heart is even worse than his appearance."

Chu Xin’s delicate little face also bore an expression as if she was strategizing over a thousand miles.

"Hmph! Damned mischievous kids, I’ll deal with you later."

The State Governor snorted coldly, then turned to look at the old crone standing behind Long Yufei, speaking coldly, "A Martial Saint in the early stage, two in the middle stage, yet none could stop the State Governor’s steps, it seems the rumors about the State Governor’s protectors only being early-stage Martial Saint are indeed false."

The old crone glanced at him but said nothing.

In fact, if not for those two little cuties’ help, she indeed couldn’t have protected the State Governor.

However, she naturally wouldn’t say these things out loud, to avoid targeting the two little cuties.

"However, this time, do you think this is all I am capable of?"

The State Governor stomped his foot, and suddenly, a complex pattern of lines lit up on the ground, quickly forming into an Array.

In an instant, huge waves of energy surged into the State Governor’s body with the enhancement of the Array, his aura skyrocketing rapidly.

"State Governor, be careful."

The old crone’s expression changed, and she quickly placed herself in front of Long Yufei.

"God Casting Array, the legendary Array that can forge gods, now being used to forge a mere little Martial Saint like me, seems a bit of an overkill."

The State Governor, feeling the surging True Qi within him, laughed loudly to the sky, but somehow, there was a hint of sorrow in that laughter.

At this moment, the aura emanating from him had already surpassed the middle stage of Martial Saint, reaching the late stage, and was still climbing.

Without hesitation, the old crone summoned the Heavenly Sword Intent, and a Giant Sword enveloped in lightning descended from the sky.

"Useless, this time you will undoubtedly die."

The State Governor waved his hand, shattering the Heavenly Sword Intent, and looked coldly towards the old crone and Long Yufei, his expression ferociously saying, "Why did you come to Lanzhou? If you hadn’t come, things wouldn’t have escalated to this point today."

Hearing this, everyone was somewhat puzzled.

Long Yufei slowly stood up, looked towards the other State Mansion officials, and spoke coldly, "Kill him, and consider today’s incident as if you were not present. Otherwise, if I die, none of you will live."

The officials’ faces changed dramatically.

Indeed, with the death of the new State Governor in the Governor’s Mansion, the State Governor would surely be wanted by the imperial royalty, and they would not escape death either.

This State Governor had gone mad, actually poisoning the State Governor right here.

The officials exchanged glances and simultaneously launched an attack on the State Governor.

The housekeeper of the State Governor hesitated for a moment, then shouted "Long live the Empire!" and also attacked the State Governor.

"A bunch of trash."

The State Governor snorted coldly, waved his hand, and terrifying True Qi burst forth, blowing all the officials away, making them spit blood and faint.

"Now, it’s your turn."

He turned his head to look at the old woman and Long Yufei, his face unmasking the murderous intent.

He raised his hand and slapped down, the terrifying True Qi condensed into a giant hand ten yards long, crushing down.

The old woman sacrificed the Seven Star Holy Sword and suddenly stabbed out, holding against the giant hand. The massive force made her spit blood and kneel on the ground.

"State Governor, run."

Due to her forceful resistance, the old woman’s face became incredibly distorted, her veins fierce and terrifying.

The water in Lanzhou was deeper than she had imagined.

Unfortunately, the royal family was now too busy to care, and those powerful ones all had their own business to tend to; she could only come here to protect Long Yufei.

When she arrived at the State Mansion, she had already checked these people’s strengths; this State Governor was the strongest, yet only at the Martial Venerate Realm, no threat to her.

Therefore, even though she knew the banquet boded no good, she still came, protecting Long Yufei.

At the same time, she also harbored the same thoughts as Long Yufei, believing that even if the State Governor wanted to kill them, he would not dare to do it in his own mansion.

But she never expected this State Governor to be so crazy, and even possess an Ancient Array like the God Casting Array.

In the end, she had indeed been careless.

"Run? No one is escaping today."

The State Governor sneered coldly, his eyes somewhat resolute, while the True Qi inside his body continued to surge.

"Hm?"

Suddenly, the smile on the State Governor’s face froze, the True Qi surging inside his body suddenly stopped, and started draining rapidly.

"What’s going on? No, impossible."

The State Governor’s face changed dramatically, looking almost insane as he tried to continue attacking, but found the speed of the True Qi loss too fast, already unable to suppress the old woman.

The old woman felt the giant hand’s force rapidly dissipating, her face showing a hint of astonishment, then with a strong effort, she shattered the giant hand.

Staring carefully at the State Governor, she realized his strength had fallen back to the Early Stage of Martial Saint.

She then looked down and saw many of the lines on the God Casting Array beneath her feet had disappeared.

"Sister, I dug up a treasure."

Just then, Chu Chen’s baby voice came ringing out.

"Brother, I also dug up a treasure."

Following that, Chu Xin’s baby voice sounded.

Everyone turned to look, only to see the siblings, who had run to a corner of the banquet hall at some point, each holding a small hoe in one hand and an ancient-looking, patterned device in the other.

Beneath their feet, there were holes, clearly just dug up from there.

"Damn kids, ruining my Array Base."

The State Governor’s despairing roar echoed through the banquet hall.
