Chapter 1844: Dao Heart Shattered

When facing Zhao Han’s attacks, Chu Chuyan, Pei Mianman, and Qiu Honglei’s reactions couldn't be considered slow.

A lotus of ice quietly opened, and a snowstorm raged around Chu Chuyan. Pei Mianman’s entire body surged with black flames. A red spider lily could vaguely be seen within the flames. The lantern in front of Qiu Honglei released its light, surrounding her in holy radiance. This was a defensive skill that was even stronger than the Wall of Sighs, that could protect a single individual in holy light. Even Xie Daoyun hurriedly used the Record of High Firmament to send heavenly lightning at Zhao Han.

Unfortunately, their speed couldn't compare to an earth immortal’s. With a clench of Zhao Han’s hand, space itself caved in around them, and their skills couldn’t fully take form before they were interrupted. The four women were hit with the recoil of failing their skills and vomited blood. They could only sense what was happening as the space around them caved in. There was no way to even escape. A wave of despair filled them.

Suddenly, a furious voice roared, “Your wife is so f*cking great!”

Zhao Han froze. He turned around and stared at Zu An, asking slowly, “What did you say?”

Zu An replied with a grin, “Your majesty, with your cultivation, how could you have heard incorrectly?”

Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue had heard him too, but they thought they were mistaken. However, judging from how things now looked, it didn’t seem as if there was any mistake. Both of their expressions were filled with shock. Chu Chuyan and the others had expressions of bewilderment.

What in the world is going on? Zu An has a relationship with the emperor’s woman? This is completely inconceivable!

“This emperor will kill you!” Zhao Han bellowed in rage. He no longer paid attention to Chu Chuyan’s group, and instead charged at Zu An like a ferocious tiger.

You have successfully trolled Zhao Han for +444 +444 +444…

Zu An immediately turned tail and ran. The two of them chased after each other, one in front and one behind. They quickly disappeared into the distance.

Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue’s expressions changed. They quickly shouted at the women around them, “What are you all doing just standing around?!” After saying that, they immediately chased after Zu An and Zhao Han.

…

Chu Chuyan and the others were anxious, but they knew that the difference between themselves and Zhao Han was too great. Getting involved further would just be throwing their lives away and dragging down Zu An. For now, they could only collect the libationer’s corpse, so they could bring him to his homeland once they left the secret dungeon.

Along the way, Qiu Honglei couldn't help but ask curiously, “What did Ah Zu mean by what he said? Doesn’t that mean he has a thing with the empress or the other concubines? Miss Xie, you spent a lot of time in the capital. Have you heard of any such thing before?”

Xie Daoyun’s face reddened. There was a look of bewilderment on her face as well. She replied, “I haven’t heard of any rumors about him and the empress, but there was a scandal with the crown princess before. However, that was quickly cleared up.”

Chu Chuyan couldn't help but say, “Ah Zu must have said that on purpose to save us.”

Pei Mianman had a strange expression. She said, “Even so, judging from the emperor’s rage, it doesn’t seem to have been a lie. Besides, you two know how frivolous Ah Zu is.”

The three women exchanged a look, then all sighed.

Xie Daoyun weakly raised her hand and asked, “Shouldn’t we be worried about big brother Zu’s safety right now?”

The three other women became quiet. After a while, Chu Chuyan said, “It’s actually useless even if we worry about him. We can only trust that Ah Zu and master can survive this situation. If something really happens to them…” She fell silent for a moment, then said with a firm expression, “In the worst case, we’ll just accompany him.”

Xie Daoyun’s eyes widened. When she saw how calm these other beauties were, she didn’t feel that it was all that shocking. It seemed they all had similar thoughts. She couldn't help but feel admiration. They joked around so casually on the surface, but their feelings actually ran so deep.

Sigh, it’s going to be really hard in the future… This is so annoying!

Qiu Honglei then looked at her and said, “It’s useless to worry about other things for now. Why don’t you tell us a bit about what kind of person the empress is? Is she pretty?”

When she saw how these three suddenly seemed to be longing for gossip, Xie Daoyun’s breath caught in their throat. She really couldn't associate their current selves with their previous decisive expressions. She reflexively replied, “Someone who could become the empress of an empire is naturally stunning. However, the empress rarely makes public appearances. I have heard that his majesty has focused on cultivation and rarely visited the harem chambers…”

The other women’s expressions changed slightly. They replied, “Be more detailed! Especially about the situation in the harem.”

Xie Daoyun was speechless.

…

Meanwhile, Zu An was running as fast as he possibly could. Sometimes he used Grandgale to dash instantly, and at other times he stepped on the Wind Fire Wheels. Just like that, he actually crossed a thousand miles.

When he saw that Zhao Han was about to target his women, in a moment of desperation, he had used ‘Fragrant Barf’, a skill that immediately drew the target’s aggression. It would create a reasonable and fair pretext for the target to chase him down. Since the situation was dire, he had been worried that the skill wouldn’t be enough, so he used the Goldensnake King’s Eye too.

Rumor has it that the moment the Goldensnake King even glances at you, you’ve already been greened.

The moment this skill is used, the scene of your wife sleeping with the user will appear in your mind.

Even so, Zu An was still worried that it wasn’t enough, so he had made sure to launch such an explosive provocation.

Under that threefold taunt, Zhao Han naturally erupted with rage. Many scenes of the empress and his concubines being ravaged appeared in his mind. At first, he felt as if something wasn’t quite right, because there seemed to be something wrong with his mental state. However, when he thought about this little bastard’s ways with women, he immediately believed it. That was why he chased after Zu An in a fiery rage.

“You little mongrel, this emperor will definitely dice up your corpse into ten thousand pieces until you are mincemeat!”

You have successfully trolled Zhao Han +999 +999 +999…

Zu An suddenly stopped and put away his Sun Slaying Bow. With a wave of his hand, the Tai’e Sword flew into his hand from the horizon.

Zhao Han also spread out his hand, and the Human Emperor Seal returned, floating above his palm. His hatred for Zu An had already reached the limit, and he naturally didn’t care about the other women anymore. He had to recall his divine weapon to get rid of this bastard first.

“Why aren’t you running anymore?” Zhao Han asked through gritted teeth.

Zu An looked around below him. The two were high in the sky, while below was a vast mountain range. He said, “I feel like this is a good place to settle our grudge, so of course there’s no need to run anymore.”

Zhao Han was so angry he laughed, saying, “I admit that you have many trump cards. However, do you think that you alone can win against me? Just where do you get your confidence from?”

Yun Jianyue and Yan Xuehen had gotten in his way before, and with this guy hiding in the back and firing arrows, it had been a bit troublesome. But now, Zu An had run all the way here alone and already left those two behind. How could he possibly be the emperor’s match one-on-one?

“Do you feel as if there’s still anything in this world that I can’t achieve?” Zu An replied. His expression was calm, and there was a hint of a smirk on the corners of his lips.

Zhao Han recalled what Zu An had said earlier, and the scene of the empress being toyed with by Zu An couldn't help but appear in his mind again. No matter how firm his will was, his face still couldn't help but twitch a bit. He asked, “Just when did you and the empress have that affair?”

He knew that Zu An was saying that to shake his will and thus affect his fighting ability. However, he had to admit that it really was effective. As such, he first wanted to find some holes in the story so he could dismiss it. That way, he would naturally be able to restore his normal state of mind.

This guy looked too calm on the surface. Meanwhile, his own mental state wasn’t good, so fighting against Zu An like this wasn’t wise. Even though he believed that he could destroy Zu An, he didn’t want to provide any opportunities.

“Oh, could it be that your majesty enjoys listening to the details of how passionate your woman was with me? I really didn’t expect this fetish,” Zu An said mockingly.

Zhao Han’s face twitched and retorted, “You’re only good at these kinds of verbal attacks with your mouth. The empress’ background is noble and she is the mother of an empire. How could she possibly be with a scoundrel like you?!”

You have successfully trolled Zhao Han for +444 +444 +444…

“The empress does like my mouth’s attacks, though,” Zu An said with a chuckle.

Zhao Han had always towered above him like a great mountain, and had always been his greatest opponent. As such, he didn’t hesitate to use any methods possible to weaken Zhao Han, even if it was a bit despicable.

Zhao Han was stunned. Some shameful scenes appeared in his mind.

You have successfully trolled Zhao Han for +666 +666 +666…

Zu An then continued, “Your majesty has always pursued immortality wholeheartedly and only knows how to cultivate in seclusion. You’ve left the empress all alone for so many years. The empress is a mature woman and had to remain in an empty chamber for all these years. I was even able to heal her injuries, so she started looking for me day after day, and I couldn't even get rid of her…”

When he heard Zu An bring up the empress’ condition, Zhao Han realized that he wasn’t just randomly making things up. He had wanted to expose Zu An’s lie and recover his composure, but this had only ended up confirming the story. His mental state was now completely destroyed.

As he stared at Zu An, his eyes were entirely red. He hissed, “Little bastard, I will make you regret coming to this world. Aren’t they all your women? I am going to viciously humiliate them and make you understand just what kind of mistake you have made.” After saying that, he acted as if he would turn around and go after Chu Chuyan and the others.

Suddenly, however, more words reached his ears. “Right, I forgot to tell you that actually, apart from the empress, there’s also the crown princess. Even though she’s your daughter-in-law in name, you already started treating her as your future wife after your reincarnation, right? And on top of that, there’s Concubine Bai…”

He had to use everything he could to keep Zhao Han here. This was related to the other women’s safety, so he couldn’t worry about how despicable he was being.

Sure enough, an explosion went off in Zhao Han’s mind. He finally understood how his split soul had died. When he thought of Zu An’s relationship with Bi Linglong, his vision became blood red. He yelled, “You son of a bitch! This one is going to chop up your corpse into ten thousand pieces!”

His dao heart had completely shattered!

You have successfully trolled Zhao Han for +1024 +1024 +1024…

His entire body turned into a golden primordial spirit and launched a ferocious assault on Zu An!
