King's Feast

Chapter 43 F. The Black Holy Grail

The wind created by the confrontation between the two forces spreads out in all directions, but it can only blow up a thin layer of dust feebly, unable to cause any substantial damage.

Corresponding to it was the deathly silence that spread.

The Holy Grail consciousness froze.

Obviously, it never thought that its long-awaited powerful power would be cut off by a mere heroic spirit.

And this power of death gushing out from the depths of the ground—the power that it tried so hard to find to help it want to be born in the world in human form, actually completely dissipated in the hands of the female heroic spirit!

It took some time for the Grail consciousness to accept this news.Then it saw Wu Zhao's eyes looking over.

——Those were arrogant and domineering eyes with absolute confidence, and the figure of the Holy Grail could not even be reflected in those eyes.

This damn woman ruined the plan of its birth, and even looked down on it!

This recognition made the Holy Grail consciousness extremely angry.

After a brief silence, it let out a piercing screech.

Like the high-pitched voice of a baby.

—How dare, how dare you look down on me, Angora Mainyu!How dare you cut off my power!

Die, die, die! ! !

A black-red beam of light shot straight into the sky from the Holy Grail.

The black liquid rolled and spiraled up with the beam of light, and then poured down overwhelmingly.

Black raindrops fell between the mountains and castles, as long as they touched the raindrops, everything would be corroded and perish in an instant.

【Amnesty · Seizure】——

Wu Zhao immediately propped up the magic barrier to keep the corrosive unknown liquid out of the barrier.

She sneered, her eyes were cold.

——Because you can't beat him, are you going crazy?

Gilgamesh and King Arthur also used their Noble Phantasms immediately after the Holy Grail entered a state of madness to prevent the corrosiveness of the black liquid from harming them.

"Miscellaneous cultivation! How dare you use dirty and filthy things to contaminate this king's treasure! Who gave you the guts, damn it!"

Gilgamesh saw that the circle of light around him was immediately polluted and corroded after touching the black liquid, and even his breath became turbid. He was so angry that his magic power burst out violently, and more weapons rushed towards the Holy Grail.

However, it was corroded by the black liquid into ash halfway.

"King Arthur, is this the Holy Grail you seek? Answer me! Is this what you want to put your foolish wishes on!"

Gilgamesh looked at King Arthur: "It's so stupid!"

Obviously, this scene was also unexpected by King Arthur.

Those emerald green pupils constricted, looking at the Holy Grail with mournful eyes.

——It is the look in the eyes of a long-held hope that has been shattered.

"Why, how could this happen! It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be like this..."

King Arthur murmured in a low voice, even his voice was trembling.

【Amnesty · Seizure】——

Wu Zhao calmly watched the magic barrier propped up in front of her gradually corrode, and immediately propped up the barrier again.

But the wrath of the Holy Grail will not rest there.

Filled with malice, it grinned darkly at the Heroic Spirit who disrupted its plan.

The next moment, like sea water pouring, the sky collapsed.

Thick/thick black hydraulic pressure came from the top, rushing to the ground with extremely fast and violent momentum.

Gilgamesh and King Arthur, who were suspended near the Holy Grail, were submerged in the black liquid before they even had time to react.

Wu Zhao jumped away sharply from the spot and took a few steps back.

She looked at the black liquid rushing towards her with a posture of destroying the world, squinted her eyes, and suddenly understood the plan of the Holy Grail consciousness.

——Because she destroyed that power, does the crazy Holy Grail want to find it again?

Use the entire Fuyuki City...or even the citizens of all the cities around Fuyuki City, use their deaths to fill the lack of death and the filthy power of resentment?

Wu Zhao sneered.

She stopped dodging and raised her arms high.

Golden light shines in her hands.

"My officers and men listen to the order, my Wuzhao, bless with the real name of the emperor, the edict—"

"Never allow any force to escape from here! Never allow anything to harm my subjects!"

"Fight for your spirit base, and don't let the battle line take a step back. This mountain forest is where the Holy Grail will perish!"

"Datang, go on an expedition—!"

【Emperor Real Name Blessing/Confirmed】

[Inherent Enchantment - Prosperous Tang Dynasty/Confirmed Blessing]

【Your Majesty, your wish is Datang's wish.Unless the last person dies, the last drop of blood, otherwise, the inherent barrier will always protect your people until you give another order]

Hearing the voice from the void, Wu Zhao smiled.

She watched the fishy/stinky black liquid rushing towards her, getting closer and closer, but there was no fluctuation in her bright eyes, calm and peaceful.

Finally, the black liquid swallowed Wu Zhao mercilessly.

Black spread rapidly, occupying every inch of land.

·

When regaining consciousness again, Wu Zhao quickly opened his eyes and jumped up from the bed.

wrong……

where is wrong.

Wu Zhao looked down at the fighting posture he immediately made, and felt an inexplicable sense of disobedience from the alertness coming from every muscle.

It's like the spirit foundation doesn't match the body, but it's forced/into an unsuitable container.

Wait, what is a spirit base?

Wu Zhao suddenly felt that he should not know this term.

She looked down at herself again, maintaining a state of alert that could not be relaxed, and carefully moved to the bronze mirror not far away, trying to find a place that made her feel inconsistent.

There is no problem with the dress, the hair accessories and hairpins are all in line with the etiquette, and the makeup is perfect as before.She is indeed the most favored Wu Meiniang in the Tang Palace, there should be nothing wrong with her.

but……

Wu Zhao frowned, looking at the delicate beauty who was also frowning in the bronze mirror, she didn't know what went wrong.

"Mother!"

Just when Wu Zhao calmed down and began to calmly follow her recent itinerary and thoughts, a young girl's shout of joy interrupted her thinking.

The line in my mind seemed to be about to touch a certain event point, but it suddenly broke.

This made Wu Zhao a little unhappy.

But the next moment, she suddenly remembered that she shouldn't be unhappy.She was very familiar with the girl's voice, it was her favorite daughter, Taiping.

Her favorite little daughter...Princess Taiping.

"Taiping..."

Wu Zhao muttered, the same idea kept repeating in his mind, and he even called out accidentally.

"It's me, Queen Mother!"

The dexterous girl who had already approached responded with a smile, and rushed over without feeling anything wrong, crashed into Wu Zhao's arms, stretched out her arms and hugged Wu Zhao's slender and powerful waist/limbs skillfully, acting like a spoiled child.

Wu Zhao hugged the girl back suddenly, and opened his lips subconsciously in response.

"Taiping, tomorrow is your canonization ceremony. Why are you still acting like a child who can't grow up? You are so frizzy, how can you look like a princess? If others see it, they will definitely say you."

——Wait, what are you talking about?

But the girl in Wu Zhao's arms didn't think there was anything wrong with what Wu Zhao said. The eccentric girl stuck out her tongue at Wu Zhao playfully and made a cute face.

"Oh, mother, you're talking about me again. What if Taiping ran away from the entire Tang Palace? Those officials who dare to speak about Taiping, you can kill them, okay?"

The girl was grinning, not afraid of Wu Zhao's sternness at all.

However, by mistake, Wu Zhao actually answered.

"it is good."

As soon as the words came out, even Wu Zhao himself was stunned.

"Empress." Came a gentle and calm female voice.

Wu Zhao followed the voice and saw a woman in a white dress of imperial style saluting her respectfully.

"His Royal Highness is going to hold the Empress Dowager Conferment Ceremony tomorrow, and I need to explain the process to Her Royal Highness."

--who?Shangguan Wan'er?

what did she say?Taiping, want to canonize the crown princess?

Wu Zhao felt something roaring angrily in his mind, as if trying to break through some obstacles.

The fierce battle in her head made her have a splitting headache, she shook her body imperceptibly, and staggered half a step.But Taiping's warm arms around/waist/waist grabbed her.

She closed her eyes, looked back at the peacetime, and resumed the dignified demeanor that the empress of the Tang Dynasty should have.

"Taiping, did you sneak out from Wan'er? Little scoundrel, you actually want to hide here with the queen mother. Look, Wan'er is here."

Wu Zhao stretched out her hand dotingly, and gently pinched Taiping's face.

Taiping coquettishly buried her beautiful face into Wu Zhao's arms.

The soft touch in his hand made Wu Zhao's body stiff.

- Should not be soft.

It should be cold, hard, and cadaverous to the touch.

A picture faintly appeared in front of Wu Zhao's eyes.

It was in the dark mausoleum, with the faint light of the night pearl, she saw her daughter Taiping.

The one lying in the coffin, the one that was broken into pieces and put back together into a human shape, with a hideous Taiping expression.

Old, resentful, unwilling.

no, no...

This image only appeared for a moment, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

It seemed that it was just Wu Zhao's hallucination.

"Queen? What's wrong with you?"

When Wu Zhao came back to his senses, he saw Taiping looking up at her worriedly.

Shangguan Wan'er also ran over anxiously to support her.

"Empress, are you alright?"

——No, Shangguan Wan'er would not call her that.

Wu Zhao shook his head, and pushed away Shangguan Wan'er's extended arm.

"Don't worry. Taiping, follow Wan'er."

When Taiping left holding Shangguan Wan'er's hand, he still looked back at Wu Zhao three times a step at a time, with worry in his beautiful green brows and eyes.

Wu Zhao smiled and raised his hand, waving to Taiping.

Then she froze.

Wu Zhao looked at the arm that had slipped off the sleeve because of her movement and was exposed.

Fair and slender.

But the lines are beautiful and powerful, and every muscle is full of strength.

She seems to know that when the power is filled along the faintly revealed veins under the skin, this soft and beautiful hand like a flower will cause terrible damage.

The delicate fabric was softly placed on Wu Zhao's arms, reflecting the luster like a dream under the bright light.The intricate woven patterns on the cuffs are inlaid with gemstones, which is worthy of her dignity as the empress of the Tang Dynasty.

But the question is - if she is the empress of the Tang Dynasty, a noble woman who has been honored and favored in the deep palace, why does she have such strong and powerful arms?

Wu Zhao turned his head sideways and looked at the bronze mirror beside him again.

The beauty in the mirror has a cloudy temples and beautiful face, the floor-length dresses are intricate and exquisite, and the jewels and gold peonies are adorned in the hair.

However, this is not her.

"I... am not the queen of Tang Dynasty."

Wu Zhao gritted his teeth, almost as if squeezing out from his throat, and declared with difficulty but still firmly.

"Crack!"

A corner of the bronze mirror was shattered, and the cracks quickly burst toward the center of the bronze mirror.

But in just a short moment, the entire bronze mirror was immediately covered with cracks.

The bronze mirror that was shattered into thousands of pieces reflected Wu Zhao's face from all angles. Under this weird vision, Wu Zhao felt that he was as terrifying as a ghost in the mirror.

It seemed that there was darkness screaming ferociously around her, a pair of hands stretched out from the darkness, pulled towards her dress, and rushed towards her cheek.

Wanted to cover her lips.

"I am not Wu Meiniang."

But Wu Zhao's voice remained firm.

As if the muscles had their own consciousness, they immediately waved their arms and sleeves.

Where Wu Zhao's wide sleeves swept, the golden thread shot away.

There was smoke and howling.

It was as if a ghost had been exposed to the sun and burned to ashes.

"Boom!"

Clouds suddenly covered outside the window, and the Tang Palace, which was still bright just now, fell into endless darkness.

The maids and guards disappeared.

There was a thunderbolt from the sky, and the majestic palace immediately burst into flames.

The fire quickly surrounded the entire palace like a prairie fire, and the black and red flames looked like ghosts.

They howled and rushed towards Wu Zhao, their face without facial features suddenly opened their mouths wide, and black liquid was still dripping from their fangs.The circular hole was stretched out on the face, and the eye sockets without eyeballs looked at Wu Zhao hollowly.

It obviously has no eyeballs, but it reveals a greed that is so excited that it trembles.

Wu Zhao frowned in disgust, but she didn't scream and run away, let alone avoid the flames that were about to burn her.

She just stood there, her tall and straight figure like an unbreakable banner.

"I am, I am..."

who is coming?

The flame had already ignited her gorgeous dress, but Wu Zhao suddenly got stuck.

She looked down at the flames under her feet, and the flames licked her body, excruciating pain.

But she didn't care.

Wu Zhao felt as if something was furious in his mind, trying to break through invisible obstacles.

That made her angry as well.

"How dare you use such a despicable method in front of me!"

However, it seemed that there was something more important that she had forgotten.

What is it?

By the way, who is she?

——My real name...

The flames finally engulfed Wu Zhao.

The majestic and exquisite Tang Palace collapsed in the fire.

……

"!"

Wu Zhao suddenly opened his eyes, subconsciously making a defensive posture.

"I……"

"The Queen Mother?"

A familiar voice came from beside her, followed by a force secretly pulling her arm.

Wu Zhao followed the voice, and what appeared in front of her was Shangguan Wan'er's astonished and anxious face.

"Empress, what are you talking about? This is not something that can be discussed now."

Shangguan Wan'er quickly looked around, leaned closer to Wu Zhao, and whispered in her ear, "Your Majesty, you can do whatever you want, and I will help you achieve your wish. But now it is Princess Taiping's Empress Dowager." The female canonization ceremony is not a good time to reveal the plan."

Taiping?

Crown Princess?

Wu Zhao was stunned for a moment.

She raised her eyes and looked around. The battle flags were fierce, the Tang Palace was majestic, and all the officials and soldiers were solemnly dressed.

And she stood in front of the main hall, above ten thousand people, with the same honor and dignity as the emperor.Waiting for Princess Taiping to go through the long queue, walk in front of her, and accept the canonization of the emperor.

"Mei Niang."

The young man's voice is warm and soft.

Wu Zhao looked sideways, only to realize that he was holding the emperor's hand.

"Meiniang, our Taiping has grown to the age to be able to shoulder the empire. I promised you back then that our Taiping will inherit the emperor."

"Then, let's find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to retreat, and just be an ordinary couple with unwavering love."

The handsome young man smiled softly, and the love words he said were touching.

But Wu Zhao was not moved at all.

Uncontrollable anger spread from her heart to her limbs.She raised her hand suddenly, knocking down the emperor's hand holding her.

"Are you crazy! You are the emperor of Datang, how dare you just hand over Datang to a person who has no ability to shoulder Datang!"

Under the astonished eyes of the emperor, Wu Zhao angrily reprimanded.

In the empty and quiet palace in front of the palace, there was a sound of gasping in order.

Countless pairs of unbelievable eyes looked at Wu Zhao.

Even Princess Taiping, who had already walked to the front of the hall, was stunned.

"Mother, Queen Mother? What are you talking about?"

But Wu Zhao didn't stop. She looked at the emperor with bright flames in her eyes burning with anger.

"Regardless of Datang's safety, he acted at will, only chose the Empress Dowager based on his feelings, but never thought about whether she could afford this position! Let me ask you, do you have Datang in your heart!"

Exclamations rang out.

The emperor looked at Wu Zhao with dangerous and gloomy eyes.

"Mei Niang, you..."

--wrong.

"wrong!"

Wu Zhao interrupted what the emperor was about to say.

The emperor was furious and waved his hand to order, and the soldiers on both sides of the hall rushed over immediately.

Wu Zhao didn't dodge, stood where he was, decisively threw off the heavy and complicated dress on his body, turned around and drew the long sword from Shangguan Wan'er's waist.

The long sword was pointed at the emperor, the sound of panic rose into chaos, and the soldiers stopped in fear.

The tip of the sword firmly pressed against the artery in the emperor's neck.

Pulse beats, beats.

As warm as a human being.

But this made Wu Zhao feel more disobedient.

--wrong!

"I am not Wu Meiniang."

"I am..."

Wu Zhao paused.

"I am Wu Zhao."
