Daoist Yun Guan quickly poured out a few black pills for her to take. “Madam, don’t overthink. Nothing will happen to the First Prince. He’s not guilty. Even if he loses his power, it’s impossible for anyone to touch him.”
“Madam, you should think about how despicable Liu Sanniang is to use this method to torture you. How can you let such a vicious person harm the world? You’re the empress of a country. It’s your responsibility to get rid of evil for the people.”
Daoist Yun Guan knew very well that he could not cut the connection between a mother and a son. He could only tell Luo Huamei not to think too much about it because the more she thought about it, the more painful it would be.
If he wanted to stop Luo Huamei from going back, he had to provoke the hatred in her heart.
Who was stopping Luo Huamei from returning to the palace? Who was stopping the Eldest Prince from succeeding the throne? It was Liu Sanniang.
Luo Huamei gritted her teeth and clenched her fists tightly. Her nails dug into her palm, but she did not feel any pain.
Her son was deposed because of Liu Sanniang. Now, Liu Sanniang was forcing her to go back and fall into the trap. If such a vicious witch was not eliminated, what would happen to the world?
Luo Huamei suppressed the pain in her heart and said fiercely, “Daoist priest, don’t worry. I won’t let her have her way. This is a disaster she brought. She deserves to die for it.”
Daoist Yun Guan sighed. “It’s a pity that I’m not as powerful as her. Otherwise, 1 would stop her from doing evil. The Star Reaching Tower is the foundation of the fate of the country. If this matter is not resolved as soon as possible, I’m afraid countless disasters will happen in the Xia Dynasty. Even if I’m extremely heartbroken, there’s nothing I can do.”
A trace of sadness flashed across Luo Huamei’s face. “The chaotic situation in the Xia Dynasty is all caused by that witch. If only the State Minister was still around.”
After all, the Cloud Breaking Sect was a large sect in the world. It had been around for thousands of years. One could imagine what would happen to the Xia Dynasty after it was abandoned by the Cloud Breaking Sect.
Daoist Yun Guan sighed. “The emperor was deceived by the witch and can’t tell right from wrong. Now, the world relies on you. If you go back now, you’ll die for nothing.”
A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Luo Huamei’s eyes. “No, 1 won’t go back. I won’t die for nothing.”
The pain in her heart was caused by Liu Sanniang. She already knew Liu Sanniang’s scheme and would definitely not fall for it.
Daoist Yun Guan nodded. “If you feel that the pain is unbearable, take a pill. Don’t worry about the Eldest Prince. I’ll go and ask around. As soon as there’s news, I’ll tell you.”
Luo Huamei’s heart skipped a beat. She nodded worriedly. “Thank you.”
The worry about her son’s safety was tormenting her. She couldn’t wait for another second.
Daoist Yun Guan said, “Madam, don’t worry. The Eldest Prince will definitely be fine. After seven days, it will be over. Even if she is powerful, she is no match for the hundred of thousands of mouths in the world. When the people are angered, they will pull her down even if she is the chosen one.”
Daoist Yun Guan lowered his eyes and said to Luo Huamei solemnly, “Madam, go back to your room and rest. I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer.”
Luo Huamei nodded. “Daoist priest, please hurry up. I want to know about Hongyuan as soon as possible. He must have been having a very bad time recently.”
At the thought of Xia Hongyuan, tears welled up in Luo Huamei’s eyes.
Daoist Yun Guan instructed with a cold expression, “Hurry up and go to the palace to find out about the Eldest Prince. Find out everything about the Eldest Prince’s life in the past half a month.”
The yellow-robed Daoists nodded respectfully. “Shifu, don’t worry, we’ll go and ask around immediately.”
Seeing that Daoist Yun Guan had made a good arrangement, Luo Huamei endured the pain in her heart and returned to her room.
Daoist Yun Guan frowned and instructed softly, “Watch closely. Don’t let her go out.”
It didn’t matter if Luo Huamei died. If she went out, she would ruin his plan.
“Shifu, don’t worry. We won’t let her go out.”
How could an ordinary woman like Luo Huamei escape under their noses?
Daoist Yun Guan nodded and instructed, “When the people want gods to die, gods have to die. Such a big thing happened in the palace, but everyone in the world is still kept in the dark. This is the worse choice they can make. They already lost.”
He wanted to see how she could handle the criticism of the world.
He would not allow himself to end up like Yuan Hui, Hui Zhen, and the others.
The Daoist priest replied respectfully, “Shifu, don’t worry. I’ve already set up everything. 1 won’t disappoint you.”
Daoist Yun Guan nodded. “Go ahead.”
Since it was a battle, he naturally had to make preparations. Liu Sanniang’s improvement made him, who originally did not take Liu Sanniang seriously, feel threatened.
Back then, when Hui Zhen asked him for help, he refused to see her. He actually felt happy that Hui Zhen was dead.
What happened in the Xuanzhen Sect back then was Hui Zhen’s mother’s fault. Hui Zhen was also a sinner. It was best if she died.
When the others were targeted by Liu Sanniang, he did not interfere either, but he was secretly preparing so that when it was his turn, he could kill her.
Daoist Yun Guan glanced at the closed door and turned to leave the courtyard.
Luo Huamei lay on the bed. Her heart hurt as if it was on fire, or as if countless worms were biting it. She took out a black pill from the bottle and swallowed it.
A cool and comfortable feeling spread throughout her body, relieving the pain in her heart.
Luo Huamei pressed her chest and told herself over and over again that she could not fall into the witch’s trap. Her son was fine. Daoist Yun Guan was omnipotent and would soon bring the good news back to her. She had nothing to worry about.
Perhaps because it was working, the pain in her heart was no longer so intense. The sky gradually brightened, and Luo Huamei was not sleepy at all.
The anxiety made her unable to sleep. After getting up and washing up, she went straight to the main hall. She wanted to ask Daoist Yun Guan if he had found anything..
