Chapter 289.1
The roar echoed for li, and everyone in the capital city heard it!
Thats Mo Yuyans voice!
She has come to kill again!
Run!!!
The common people of the city were thrown into panic!
The officials were even more panicked, fearing that this enemy might suddenly come knocking on their door.
Yuxu Taoist Master burst out from the imperial palace, his face filled with anger: Demoness, youve come to provoke and do evil again!
What provocation and evil? I am clearly acting on behalf of heaven, seeking my revenge and avenging common peoples grievances!
Mo Yuyan snorted: I heard that the Great Luo Dog Emperor is about to die. Since hes going to die anyway, he might as well die by my sword!
Do not be impudent! Yuxu Taoist Master immediately took action. The Great Luo Emperor could die, but not at the hands of an outsider!
Mo Yuyan also made her move, and the two began to fight fiercely!
Yuxu Taoist Master was powerful, steadfastly guarding the palace behind him and preventing Mo Yuyan from getting close.
However, the huge commotion woke up the Great Luo Emperor, who had been sound asleep.
Whats happening outside Why is it so noisy?
Your Majesty, that demoness Mo Yuyan has come to attack us again. Yuxu Taoist Master is outside the palace resisting her, protecting Your Majestys safety! The old eunuch approached and whispered.
Protecting? He probably cant wait for me to die, the Great Luo Emperor sneered.
Your Majesty, why would the Taoist Master think like that? He has saved your life several times! the old eunuch whispered back.
Yes, he has saved me a few times. I have no reason to resent them! The Great Luo Emperors eyes were filled with self-mockery.
In fact, on the day he fell unconscious, he quickly came to his senses and overheard Yuxu Taoist Master and Song Yufeis conversation, realizing that he had been completely abandoned by them.
They clearly had a divine elixir but refused to give it to him.
He had imperial physicians to save him, yet he was obstructed by them, delaying his recovery.
Unfortunately, he could only pretend to be unaware when facing such powerful adversaries.
It was only now, with Yuxu Taoist Master gone, that he dared to speak his mind.
But still, no one understood him.
The Great Luo Emperor felt an immense sadness in his heart.
He was clearly an Emperor of a Dynasty, yet he had to depend on others with his life and death in their hands.
The revered senior he once relied on had now become an executioner, slowly taking his life.
Death was not frightening. Waiting for death was terrifying, with every minute and every second being an agony.
He would rather die a clean and swift death than linger on in a wretched state!
He is an Emperor, not a dog!
At this moment, the Great Luo Emperors eyes opened wide as he exclaimed, Help me up!
But Your Majesty, your dragon body is unwell
The Great Luo Emperor scolded: Enough nonsense, help me up immediately or Ill have your head!
Yes, Your Majesty!
With the assistance of the old eunuch and others, the Great Luo Emperor finally managed to sit up while trembling.
This single action nearly exhausted all his strength, causing him to cough incessantly and gasp for air. He felt very cold, his body shivering slightly, and his complexion grew even more ashen.
He was only in his thirties, but he looked older than a man of sixty.
Your Majesty, you should lie down again. It might be more comfortable
Shut up! Help me up. I want to go out, I must go out The Great Luo Emperor roared stubbornly.
Your Majesty, you really cant go out
Are you not even listening to me now?
The Great Luo Emperors anger surged, turning into a mouthful of old blood, which he spat out with a loud sound.
His complexion became even paler, and his body became even weaker.
Everyone in the room was worried about the Emperors health and dared not make decisions on their own, so they called for Song Yufei.
Your Majesty, you are unwell. You really cannot go outside! Song Yufei pleaded with concern.
Fairy Yufei!
The Great Luo Emperor stared at Song Yufei with eyes filled with pleading, I am close to death, and I beg you for one last thing! Let me go out. Let me take a look at my realm! Just one glance, please?
Your Majesty, this alright! Song Yufeis heart softened.
Because she knew very well that this might truly be the Emperors last wish before death.
Thank you!
With the support of those around him, the Great Luo Emperor took one step at a time out of the palace, exhausting all his strength with every step.
Thus, it took nearly half the time it took to drink a cup of tea for him to finally step outside.
Looking around, all he saw were ruins and broken walls as battered and dilapidated as his own body.
A surge of indescribable sorrow filled his heart.
My realm is finished, my imperial palace is finished, I am also finished!
I have toiled so hard for half my life only to end up like this! If I had known this would be my fate, why would I have fought for the throne in the first place? I might as well have lived peacefully as a wealthy man!
Now, my fate is in the hands of others, unable to live as I wish or die when I desire!
Pitiful! Regrettable! Miserable
The Great Luo Emperor reflected on his life.
In the first ten years, he endured great hardships, determined to carve out his own realm.
In the next ten years, he endured hardships to accumulate strength to conquer the kingdom.
In the last ten years, he governed with diligence and finally became the Emperor, even establishing a Dynasty.
His life could be described as full of dramatic ups and downs, splendid beyond compare!
Gradually, the Emperors bearing returned to his eyes.
In this world, I have come, fought, and loved deeply. This life has not been in vain!
So, even if I must go, I will leave with a bang!
My fate must be in my own hands! Even the Taoist Sect cannot control my destiny!
An emperors dignity is inviolable! My fate is mine to command, not by heaven!!!
The Great Luo Emperor pushed away the people around him and shouted with all his might, Demoness, you want to kill me, dont you? Here I am, come and kill me! Im waiting for you!
