I am a mage and a wet nurse, so using seven swords is not too much, right?

Of course, the emperor would not really wait for Ning Ruan to finish eating the spiritual fruit.

But he didn't stop her from eating.

He just said calmly: "The elder of the Dark Phoenix Clan wants to make a deal with me."

‘Crack! ’

"Oh." Ning Ruan nodded, "So?"

"She wants your life." The emperor stared at her without blinking, his black eyes were surprisingly deep at this moment.

"I know." Ning Ruan chewed the spiritual fruit, chewed it, and swallowed it before saying, "She has wanted to kill me for a long time."

The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, "Are you so sure that I won't agree to her?"

‘Crack! ’

The crisp sound of fruit flesh breaking echoed in the hall.

Ning Ruan swallowed the last mouthful of the sweet juice, then turned the fruit core in her hand into ashes with flames and threw it at her feet.

Then he slowly raised his eyes and looked directly at the person above him without fear:

\"Oh, did His Majesty agree?\"

The emperor's eyes suddenly caught the girl's casually leaning figure.

The index finger resting on the imperial desk also bent unconsciously and tapped lightly on the table.

The air in the entire hall seemed to become sticky, with ambergris mixed with the lingering fragrance of spiritual fruits, condensing into an invisible noose under the pressure.

This was the ten-thousandth time that Eunuch Jiang regretted knowing the first secret of His Majesty.

Once the first time, there will be countless times, and you will live in fear and trepidation every time.

You will never be free until the day you die!

Ning Ruan could not understand Eunuch Jiang's anxiety and fear.

Just as the emperor could not understand where Ning Ruan's confidence came from, he had no fear of him at all.

The emperor looked at her and answered irrelevantly:

"I actually like my fourth son very much and have high hopes for him."

"When he was still a three-year-old child, he hugged my legs and said that when he had achieved success in his cultivation, he would lead an army and bring glory to our race."

"But he's dead."

"He did not die at the hands of foreigners, nor did he die on the battlefield in the Boundless Realm."

The person sitting on the dragon throne seemed to be lost in some memories.

Before he finished speaking, Ning Ruan suddenly chuckled.

His eyes were fixed on the emperor on the throne, who seemed to have merged into the shadows.

The man was clearly sitting in the magnificent hall, but in the flickering light, even his deep-cut face seemed shrouded in a hazy state of reality.

"He's dead. I killed him. So what?"

"I think your majesty should thank me because I just killed a beast."

"This guy didn't even let his own sister go. How is he any different from a beast?"

"Your Majesty misses him, but do you still remember your other daughter who was forced by him to go to the battlefield even though her cultivation was not good enough?"

Ning Ruan was still sitting on the sword box.

Not elegant, nor expensive.

Even after making such a fatal statement, she showed no intention of moving.

It was as if she had never considered the consequences of offending the emperor.

Ning Ruan actually wanted to say this a long time ago.

Did he really not know that his own son, whom he doted on so much, had such thoughts about his daughter?

Maybe he had stopped it.

But I certainly didn't take it too seriously.

He had so many children, so why would he care about a daughter with ordinary talents born to a palace maid whom he couldn't even remember?

He wouldn't even really consider her as his bloodline.

Ning Ruan doesn't want to be a moral role model.

But since the emperor said it first, she would not pretend anymore.

As for whether the emperor is angry or not, what does it have to do with her?

The emperor's knuckles on the dragon-patterned armrest suddenly tensed, then slowly relaxed.

"Ning Ruan." The deep voice echoed between the beams, and every word was wrapped in the sharpness tempered by black ice. "Do you really think I won't kill you?"

Killing intent.

Ning Ruan felt it.

The emperor wanted to kill her.

But it is different from the determination of the elders of the Dark Phoenix Clan to kill.

In fact, Ning Ruan doesn’t really care about similarities or differences.

She finally stood up from the ground.

His right hand casually held the sword case.

Youyou said: "Your Majesty, do you know why the elders of the Dark Phoenix Clan must kill me?"

Eunuch Jiang: “…” Do I even need to ask the reason?

Who wouldn't want to kill you when seeing your arrogance that shows you disrespect for everyone?

His Majesty wants to kill you.

The emperor smiled at this time, "I really want to know."

Ning Ruan smiled back: "Because I said she can't return to the Dark Phoenix Clan, I want to kill her."

Rao had already anticipated that Ning Ruan might give some unexpected answer.

But when this answer really came out of her mouth, the emperor couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

He asked back, "You want to kill her?"

Ning Ruan: "Yes."

emperor:"???"

Eunuch Jiang: “…”

Ning Ruan touched the sword case and asked, "Your Majesty, do you think I can't kill him?"

emperor:"……"

I think you can't save your life at all, and others want to kill you.

"If you can really kill her, can't you also kill me?"

When asking this question, the emperor's tone was playful.

Obviously, he didn't really believe that Ning Ruan had that ability.

But he asked anyway.

And Ning Ruan really answered seriously: "Of course."

Is there any difference between killing the emperor and killing others?

She thinks not.

Anyway, whoever wants to kill her will die.

There is no difference.

She will treat everyone who wants to kill her equally.

……

Before entering the palace.

Ning Ruan was actually prepared to cut her palm and shake the person.

But at the last moment, it couldn't be used.

It was obvious that the emperor had begun to develop murderous intentions towards her, but in the end, the desire suddenly disappeared.

This was the difference she felt between herself and the elders of the Dark Phoenix Clan.

The latter really wanted to kill her, and would stop at nothing, at any cost.

And the emperor... also wanted to kill her.

But because of some other concerns, he seemed hesitant.

Before this, other concerns probably prevailed.

But the mad emperor today was a little different.

The desire to kill seems to outweigh any other concerns.

She felt it from the moment she stepped into the hall.

Ning Ruan returned to her residence, the last words of the Dog Emperor still echoing in her mind:

"I really want to see how you killed the elder of the Dark Phoenix Clan."

As he was thinking, the sound transmission note rang.

It’s Dean Yang.

He was asking about what was happening in the Council Hall.

Ning Ruan told the truth.

Including what she said to the elders of the Dark Phoenix Clan.

the other side.

Dean Yang, who received the voice transmission, was shocked to the point of standing still.

After a long time, he hesitantly sent the message:

"Well... if you want to kill the elder of the Dark Phoenix Clan, it's not a big problem, but you can't do it in the spirit world."

"Outside the spirit world, there are people waiting for them, so once we make a move, we have to do it perfectly, otherwise it will be bad if the news leaks out."

"But this is not a problem. Our college can do it."

"But the emperor...why don't we just not kill him first?"

“This is a bit troublesome.”
