Chapter 1320: Hundred Flowers Palace Is Too Rich
Su Xiaoxiao followed Mother Palace Lord to the Towering Palace for a meal.
The woman in green was locked in the dungeon of the Hundred Flowers Palace by Ling Yin.
The Palace Lord didn’t like to torture her disciples, and unfriendly outsiders were usually killed on the spot. Therefore, the Hundred Flowers Palace’s dungeon was empty. There was no one there.
“Senior Sister Ling Yin.”
As soon as a junior brother accompanying her spoke, an echo immediately came from the passageway of the dungeon.
“Lights,” Ling Yin said.
“Yes.”
The junior brother took out a match and lit the oil lamps on the wall one by one.
Under the dim yellow light, the woman in green looked all the way.
The scene in front of her made her find it unbelievable.
Was this dazzling place… really a prison cell?
The walkway was paved with white marble, the cell door was made of mahogany, and the shelf of the oil lamp was made of gold…
The eyes of the Dragon God bronze statue in the corner were gem-inlaid!
The Hundred Flowers Palace was so rich!!!
Ling Yin glared at the woman in green and said, “Why are your eyes so wide? Be careful or I’ll dig them out for you!”
“Senior Sister Ling Yin, which cell shall we lock her in?”
Her junior brother asked.
Ling Yin thought for a moment and said, “Let’s lock her in the worst room. She’s not worth living in a good place!”
“Yes, Senior Sister Ling Yin.”
The junior brother took the key and opened one of the cells.
Ling Yin threw the woman in green into the room. “Stay here! Let’s go!”
Her junior brother locked the cell door and followed Ling Yin out of the cell.
As the woman in green lay on the ground, her eyes were darting as she sized up the cell as best as she could.
Was this the worst cell?
Were they kidding?
The ground was clean, and even the mattress had been washed. It was even made of gold silk!
Hey!
Do you know how expensive the materials of the Golden Silk Pavilion are?
Wasn’t it too wasteful to use it to sew mattresses for prisoners?!
The woman in green was about to vomit blood.
She had worked so hard to buy the clothes of the Golden Silk Pavilion. So it was enough to be a prisoner in the Hundred Flowers Palace?
“Senior Sister Ling Yin, do you want to give her something to eat?”
“Not yet. Let her starve for two hours!”
The woman in green’s pupils trembled!
Would she only be starved for… two hours?
Two hours later, the junior brother from before came to deliver food.
“Don’t expect me to give you anything delicious!”
With that, he put down his food and left.
“Hey, I’ve been hit in the acupoint. How can I eat it?”
The junior brother turned back and used the Flower Palace’s unique acupoint removal technique to unseal half of her acupoints, allowing her to barely eat.
The woman in green took a bite and her soul soared.
Why was the prison food of the Flower Palace so delicious?
Did she use to eat pig food in the past?!
–
“Are you full?”
The Palace Lord asked.
The three little ones nodded.
They had actually eaten dinner and were here to accompany Su Xiaoxiao for another meal.
Xiaohu patted his round belly. “I’m full.”
Wei Xiaobao lay in Su Xiaoxiao’s arms and blew on the milk bottle while looking out.
She wanted to go out and play again.
After sleeping for a day, she was going to start acting.
Dahu came to Su Xiaoxiao. “Sister, let Brother carry you.”
Wei Xiaobao refused.
“Here.”
Su Xiaoxiao gave Wei Xiaobao, who had finished her milk, to Dahu.
Wei Xiaobao grabbed Su Xiaoxiao with both hands. “Wu wu ~”
Dahu hugged his sister and said, “Mother has something on. Big Brother will play with you.”
Erhu leaned over. “I want to play with my sister too.”
Dahu asked Xiaohu, “Xiaohu, do you want to come?”
Xiaohu lay on the ground and spun around his head like a small compass. “No.”
Wei Xiaobao was super fierce. “Wuwa!”
Take it or leave it!
–
Su Xiaoxiao went to the dungeon with the Palace Lord, the Ghost Concubine, and the Saintess.
The woman in green finished her prison meal and sat cross-legged against the wall.
Looking at the empty plate in the food box, the Palace Lord said calmly, “You really can eat. Didn’t so many bowls of blood swallow bird’s nest and snacks fill your stomach?”
The woman in green looked like the situation was already so bad that to make it worse made no real difference. “Take my life if you have to!”
The Palace Lord raised her hand and clenched it.
The Wordless Book in her arms flew out.
The woman in green’s expression changed.
Just now, she had deliberately shouted so that they would not notice her Wordless book. Unexpectedly, she still could not hide it from Yun Shuang!
Palace Lord said to Ghost Concubine, “Let’s begin.”
Ghost Concubine walked forward with a faint smile. “I’ll introduce her internal energy into Cheng Xin’s body later. She might feel a little uncomfortable. Tell Cheng Xin not to resist.”
Su Xiaoxiao said to Cheng Xin, “You’ll feel a little uncomfortable later. Bear with it.”
The Saintess nodded.
Ghost Concubine flicked her sleeve and hung the woman in green on the wall with her internal energy. Then she met the woman’s palm with one hand and Cheng Xin’s with the other.
The woman in green’s expression changed. “You…”
Ghost Concubine sneered. “I don’t like to suck people’s internal energy, but that doesn’t mean I don’t know how to do it.”
Su Xiaoxiao understood that Ghost Concubine was using herself as a medium to transfer the woman in green’s internal energy into the Saintess’s body.
This should be a considerable loss to her.
Ghost Concubine’s favor was huge.
Just as Su Xiaoxiao thought this, Ghost Concubine suddenly retracted her hand and took a step back, looking at the woman in green with a serious expression.
The woman in green smiled. “Why aren’t you continuing? You don’t dare anymore?”
Palace Lord asked the Ghost Concubine, “What happened?”
The Ghost Concubine frowned and said, “There’s a burning aura in her body.”
Su Xiaoxiao’s expression turned solemn. “It’s the burning aura again.”
Back then, Wei Qing almost lost his life because of the burning fire in his body. Later on, in order to save Wei Qing, Wei Xu forcefully lured it into his own body and it tortured him.
The woman in green smiled happily. “Come on, take your internal strength back.”
Su Xiaoxiao looked at her steadily. “Is this how Xiahou Yi controls you?”
The woman in green’s smile froze.
She said angrily, “Nonsense! My lord didn’t control me! With this burning aura, I can prevent anyone from snatching my internal energy!”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “You’re lying to yourself. You’re really sad.”
The Ghost Concubine looked at Palace Lord. “Sister.”
The Palace Lord’s gaze landed on the green-robed woman’s angry and distorted face as she struck her chest!
A powerful cold internal force surged into her body and into her diaphragm.
“Don’t you want to know the martial arts on the Wordless Book? This is it!”
The Palace Lord suddenly increased the power of her palm.
The woman in green’s hair and robe fluttered without wind and suddenly fluttered back.
Cold air flowed around her body. She seemed to be frozen, and her entire body could not even move.
When the last trace of cold internal energy entered her body, the Palace Lord retracted her hand.
The woman in green fell to the ground in a sorry state.
The Palace Lord said calmly, “Her burning aura has been sealed. That’s enough.”
The woman in green trembled in disbelief.
Yun Shuang was actually so powerful…
My lord… you’ve underestimated her…
Ghost Concubine sneered and came to her. She raised her hand. “It’s starting.”
The woman in green felt an endless stream of internal energy being sucked away by the Ghost Concubine.
She said with a pale face, “Don’t be smug… So what if you got your internal strength back… You can’t defeat the lord!”
Ghost Concubine chuckled and said, “That terminally ill old man should worry about himself first. After all, he issued so many opening gambits but he doesn’t seem to have succeeded once.”
Ghost Concubine had already learned a lot of the truth from Ling Yun’s disciple.
The woman in green looked at Su Xiaoxiao with ill intentions and smiled weakly. “It’s about to succeed this time.”
“What do you mean?”
Su Xiaoxiao asked.
The woman in green sneered and said, “Xiahou Yan once told my lord a secret. There’s a new steward beside Madam Ji of the Heavenly Jade Hall. Her name is Chu Feifeng.”
