Chapter 288.2

The rumors were detailed and convincing.

Lin Beifan also knew about it, but he found it strange.

Normally, such matters were strictly kept from public knowledge by the state.

Even if the news did leak, it would be delayed by several days or even a month or more.

Yet, the news of the Great Luo Emperors illness spread the day after he fell ill and quickly disseminated throughout the land.

It feels like theres an invisible hand behind all this, pushing everything forward.

What puzzled him even more was that the Great Luo Emperor had the support of the Taoist Sect, yet they couldnt cure his illness.

It wasnt some rare poison, so how could it be incurable?

Even he himself had many ways to deal with such things, let alone the Taoist Sect with its profound heritage?

Hmm, is the Taoist Sect planning to give up on the Great Luo? Are they warming up public opinion to make a dignified exit?

Lin Beifan speculated this for a reason.

Firstly, given the situation with Great Luo, not even the intervention of immortals could save them. The Taoist Sect wouldnt pin all their hopes on this one thing.

However, giving up directly was out of the question.

The Great Luo Emperor was a wise ruler they had supported, essentially their chosen ally.

Abandoning an ally outright would be considered disgraceful and would be scorned by others.

As a righteous Taoist faction, they had to maintain some dignity.

So, what method would allow them to leave with honor?

Of course, it would be for the ally to die!

Death is like a lamp going out. Everything comes to an end!

But he couldnt be killed by someone else, as that would be a slap in the face to the Taoist Sect.

Therefore, the best method would be to let him die of illness.

Birth, aging, sickness, and natural death are beyond human control.

In this way, the Taoist Sect can easily withdraw and leave.

Its not that were unwilling to help, but that the other party died of illness! There was nothing we could do about it!

Others wouldnt blame the Taoist Sect. They would only say that the Great Luo Emperor had committed too many sins and brought them upon himself, and no one else was to blame. ๐“ƒโ„ด๐“ฟ๐“ฎ๐“๐“ฎ๐“ช๐“ˆ๐“‰.๐“ฌโ„ด๐“ถ

Perfect!!!

However, all of this was just speculation.

To confirm his suspicions, Lin Beifan called for Ni Pusa and Yuan Tiangang.

Rumors have it that the Great Luo Emperor is gravely ill, possibly not long for this world! You possess the ability to peer into the heavens, so I would like you to go to Great Luo and see for yourselves whether these rumors are true.

Yes, Your Majesty! The two of them accepted the order and immediately set off for Great Luo.

Four days later, they returned, bringing a message to Lin Beifan.

The true dragon is about to pass, and the dynasty will not continue!

The meaning was crystal clear: the Great Luo Emperor was on the brink of death, and the nation was on the verge of collapse.

Lin Beifan thought for a moment, then smiled. It seems the Taoist Sect is truly ready to abandon Great Luo. Do they wish to leave with dignity? I will not let them have their way!

Lin Beifan summoned the Empty Hand Master and entrusted the matter to him.

After hearing the plan, the Empty Hand Master was extremely excited and assured that he would complete the task perfectly.

He stealthily made his way to Great Luo and found Mo Yuyan.

Is that you Empty Hand Master? What do you want with me? Mo Yuyan asked.

I am not the Empty Hand Master. I am his brother, Two Empty Hands! the Empty Hand Master said earnestly.

Mo Yuyans lips twitched slightly, amused by such a no-effort attempt at deception.

Just tell me what you want. I dont have time for idle chatter!

The Empty Hand Master spoke up, His Majesty has sent me to convey a message to you. The Great Luo Emperor is critically ill and will soon depart from this world! If you wish to seek personal vengeance, you must act quickly, or you will lose your chance!

Mo Yuyans heart tightened. Is that dog Emperor really about to die?

Although death is death, if the Great Luo Emperor didnt die by her hand, her desire for revenge would not be satisfied.

How could she comfort her brothers spirit in heaven?

Thank you for the information! Mo Yuyan bowed and immediately rushed towards the capital city.

Wait, called the Empty Hand Master, youre just going like this?

Mo Yuyan looked back, puzzled. What else?

With your current abilities, you wont be able to contend with that Taoist Sect Grandmaster!

The Empty Hand Master took out a bottle and tossed it over, saying, This is a gift from our Emperor to you. Inside are three Ascending Dragon Pills! Once consumed, your strength will increase threefold, temporarily giving you the power of a Grandmaster!

However, each pills effect will only last for 30 breaths! You must manage your time well. If you havent killed the Great Luo Emperor within 90 breaths, your body will enter a weakened state, and you should flee as far as you can!

Mo Yuyan took the medicine and looked deeply at him, Although I know Im being used by your Emperor, I still thank him. Ill consider this a favor I owe him!

Fair enough! nodded the Empty Hand Master.

Then, he secretly infiltrated the Great Luo imperial city, ready to record the ensuing battle and report back to his Emperor.

.

Meanwhile, with revenge within reach, Mo Yuyan was in no rush.

She adjusted her condition to its peak before heading to the Great Luo capital city.

Like a dragon descending, she landed on the walls of the imperial palace and let out a furious roar: Great Luo dog Emperor, come out! I will take your life today!!!
