That was his personal shadow guard, who was specifically responsible for clearing obstacles for him.

Black shadows instantly surrounded Jiang Jingmo and others like ghosts, exuding a fierce murderous intent.

Everyone was startled, knowing that these dark shadows must be the secret guards of Emperor Chu, and that today would not end peacefully.

The King of Chu had a gloomy expression, his eyes were full of cruelty, "Kill them!"

The secret guards moved upon hearing the sound and suddenly pounced towards Jiang Jingmo and others, and everyone hurriedly prepared for defense.

Just when they were about to step forward to confront those secret guards, Shen Shuli appeared from the crowd.

A complicated seal was quickly formed in the air, and then suddenly blocked in front of everyone. With a flash of golden light, all the attacks of the secret guards were blocked.

You know, the strength of these secret guards is not bad, most of them are above the Heavenly Spirit Realm, but under this rune, their attacks are useless.

All the officials were horrified by this scene, and the calmness they had tried so hard to maintain collapsed at this moment.

Sometimes, strength is the existence that crushes everything.

The King of Chu glared at him, "Who are you? How dare you disobey my order?!"

Shen Shuli ignored him and just snapped his fingers lightly. In an instant, the talisman turned into golden light and quickly penetrated into the body of the secret guard in front of him.

And at this moment, the movements of these secret guards suddenly stopped, and they could no longer move.

Shen Shuli then raised his eyebrows in satisfaction and turned to look in the direction of Emperor Chu.

"You, who are you?"

When the King of Chu saw the scene in front of him, his arrogant attitude disappeared. His face turned pale and he had already considered retreating.

"Your Majesty, don't worry about this. You just need to know that I am not from the Empire and do not have to abide by the rules of your Empire."

The corners of Shen Shuli's mouth rose slightly. He took a step forward, but scared Emperor Chu.

His eyes were still bloodshot, obviously still affected by his bloodline, but when he looked at the man in front of him, a hint of fear inevitably appeared in his eyes.

He could not feel the realm of Shen Shuli. This completely unknown feeling was also the first time that Emperor Chu felt it.

After all, he has already reached the immortal realm, and it is rare for him to meet someone stronger than himself.

"what you up to!"

The King of Chu appears to be fierce but is actually weak.

"Don't be nervous, Your Majesty. What I did just now was just to calm you down. You are the king of a country. How could I do anything to you?"

The smile on Shen Shuli's face deepened. Behind him were Jiang Jingmo and his group. Facing the current situation, they felt a little dazed.

"Brother Shen, are you very powerful? I heard that the emperor is silent."

Nan Xun opened his lifeless eyes and lowered his head to ask Ke Su curiously.

"He is very powerful. He has controlled all the secret guards." Ke Su replied.

"Tsk tsk tsk, worthy of being Brother Shen."

Nan Xun was amazed, it was rare that he regained some of his true nature.

Jiang Jingmo next to him seemed to be thinking about something. She stared at Shen Shuli's back, as if she had discovered something.

"Then why did you come forward? Are you planning to assassinate me?"

The King of Chu still insisted on maintaining his status as the ruler of a country.

"I just want to ask about your health, Your Majesty. How are you doing these days?" Shen Shuli said with a smile.

"...I am naturally very good."

The King of Chu had no idea what he meant, so he could only follow his words silently.

"Your Majesty, please don't be so harsh. Think about it carefully. Is your body really okay?"

Shen Shuli smiled, and this sentence became threatening.

The King of Chu's face changed, and he suddenly thought of something, feeling uneasy.

His face turned extremely ugly, and it took him a long time to find his voice.

"…Thank you for your concern."

"You're welcome."

Shen Shuli retreated back into the crowd and moved closer to Jiang Jingmo.

"Go and help Uncle Jiang up."

He leaned close to the girl's ear and whispered this.

Jiang Jingmo looked at him with some confusion, but saw that he nodded at her.

Out of trust, she listened to Shen Shuli's words, stepped forward and pulled her father up.

Father Jiang was still in shock about what had just happened. He was suddenly pulled up by Jiang Jingmo and was unable to react for a moment.

"In that case, we will go back first, Your Majesty."

Shen Shuli left the last words.

He led everyone out of the gate under the eyes of Emperor Chu. All the officials looked at them with some confusion, and then turned their gaze to Emperor Chu.

He didn't say a word, but his face turned purple with anger and his eyes were fixed on Shen Shuli's figure.

He noticed the gazes of the officials and kicked over the decorative shelf next to him.

The King of Chu looked at them with bloodshot eyes, looking crazy and terrifying.

"What are you looking at? Do you want me to chop you all off? Get out! Get out! Withdrew from the court!!!"

All the officials fled from this place, leaving only the Emperor Chu with a vicious look on his face standing there.

He kept smashing things to vent his anger, and then suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of black blood.

He stared blankly at the bloodstains on the ground, his internal organs feeling as if they were being bitten by hundreds of insects.

The poison that had not yet taken effect finally took effect at this moment.

With a thud, Emperor Chu fell to the ground and fell into a coma.

.........

Shen Shuli led Jiang Jingmo and his party out of the palace directly, and the surrounding imperial guards did not try to stop them.

On the way, Jiang Jingmo looked back at the towering imperial city and looked at Shen Shuli with some confusion.

"How did you threaten Emperor Chu in the first place? He looked at you just now as if he wanted to eat you."

"If he has such a big appetite, he can come and try it."

Shen Shuli smiled and showed disdain for it.

"I didn't use any new tricks. I just gave him a poison pill."

"Oh? You're using the same trick again?"

Jiang Jingmo raised his eyebrows and turned to look at him.

"That's different. I didn't use poison on you, but I used a deadly poison on him."

Shen Shuli smiled and moved closer to Jiang Jingmo.

"I think he's almost dying of pain now."

"Did you activate the poison?"

"Well, let me teach him a lesson. Killing him would bring too much trouble. It's better to keep him and torture him slowly."

Shen Shuli nodded, not panicking at all.

Father Jiang was listening to all this silently behind them. What they were doing had already overturned his understanding of imperial power.

At this moment, he felt a little complicated, as if he suddenly felt that the emperor who was above everyone else was not so unattainable.

Thinking about how he had devoted his entire life to the country and the people, but in the end, he had dirty water thrown on him, it really disheartened him.

Jiang's father suddenly fell into confusion, and he thought to himself: Is it really necessary to continue to recommend a monarch who disregards loyal ministers and is so cruel?
