Chapter 101 We Are Here to Mourn

Baby Ruo Xi stretched lazily.

She put her little hand in her mouth and licked it: "Mmm, delicious, candied pork knuckle, sweet and fragrant."

As a baby, she could only eat milk and drink water, occasionally having some bland milk beans or rice porridge, which made her taste buds crave for more flavor.

In her previous life, she lived freely, galloping through the rivers and lakes, drinking heartily and eating meat to her heart's content, a life that seemed wonderful just thinking about it.

So when Ci Xin teased her and gave her a piece of meat, she directly reached out with her small hand to grab it.

Although Mama Jin had wiped her hands clean, the taste lingered.

"Ah, being a baby is not easy. Look at me, how pitiful, I have to snatch food to get a bite!"

"No, I must protect Great Wei. When I grow up, I'll enjoy different delicacies every day, tasting all the world's cuisines!"

Xiao Yin listened to his niece's wish and couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time. His little niece wanted to help stabilize Great Wei just for the sake of food.

Not because he was such a good uncle!

And Xiaoyue, hearing this, also smiled helplessly and shook her head.

Seeing Xiao Yin and Xiaoyue's unconcerned smiles, King Kang became even angrier.

"Your Majesty, don't go too far!" King Kang roared.

"Black aura swirling around him, the aura of death is being overshadowed by the malevolent aura. This means the old man has been infused with fresh blood again?"

"This can't be the blood-changing technique of Seven Colors Palace!"

Thinking of this, even Baby Ruo Xi, who was sleepy, suddenly felt alert.

She detested this method.

These evil techniques were against nature, and in her previous life, she had killed countless practitioners of them.

Yet, somehow, she ended up becoming the notorious demon lord everyone wanted to kill.

Hearing Xiao Xi'er's thoughts, Xiao Yin and Xiaoyue's expressions turned cold.

King Kang's swollen fish-bubble eyes shot out menacing glares.

He didn't expect that after years of absence, the once unloved and unpromising child, whom the late emperor didn't favor, would now exude such a powerful presence.

And Xiaoyue, a woman, was unexpectedly fierce as well.

What puzzled King Kang the most was the little girl Xiao Yin always carried. He had no idea where she came from.

News from the Imperial City said that since this child's birth, everything had changed.

The Minister of Personnel was eliminated, General Shangguan's residence was sealed, and Shangguan Jinghong died tragically a few days ago.

Everything was spiraling out of control.

"King Kang, don't forget, this is the Xiao family's realm, the realm of Great Wei, not your Yu family's realm," Xiao Yin said coldly.

"Hahahaha, what a joke!" King Kang laughed loudly: "I've been here since the previous dynasty; even the late emperor didn't dare to touch me. What qualifications do you have..."

"You mentioned the late emperor!" Xiao Yin interrupted the old man, saying coldly: "He died three years ago, by suicide!"

"Very good, very good!" King Kang raised his head slightly, saying: "But, Emperor, have you considered that you have so few people, while this entire Yude County belongs to me, all of it!"

"So what!" Xiaoyue sneered lightly, stepping forward: "You exploit the people, your crimes are heinous. Even the people of Yude County, which one of them doesn't want to take a bite out of you... oh no, they can't bite you, your flesh is rotten and stinking!"

"You, you..." King Kang was about to explode with anger. He covered his chest, struggling to breathe, and waved his hand, shouting: "Guards, seize them all!"

"Your Highness!" Several stewards in the mansion were stunned.

They usually acted arrogantly because they were part of the royal household.

But in recent days, they had become much more cautious, even afraid to speak to the king.

The king had been arrogant for years, causing widespread resentment.

After the emperor arrived, he did not bring military supplies into the city but left them outside, guarded by the bandits from the Heaven's Gate.

Few knew about the recruitment of Yuan Hui.

It happened during a fight on the mountain, and after descending, Yuan Hui and his men followed.

Some servants in the royal household saw Yuan Hui enter the city guard barracks.

Yuan Hui was once a renowned general, equal in fame to the current emperor, known as the War King.

Yuan Hui himself was a formidable fighter, and the soldiers he trained were even more skilled.

Yude County was the former capital before the relocation, and there were many soldiers stationed here, including some of Yuan Hui's former subordinates in the city defense camp.

"What are you waiting for? Seize their supplies and capture them all!" King Kang continued waving his arms, shouting: "Bring Aunt Lan Yi here, kill them!"

"Indeed, it's the Blue Robe Sect of Seven Colors Palace! Could this thing have lasted for a thousand years?"

Baby Ruo Xi realized that some things existed in parallel with her past life.

Like Seven Colors Palace, she seemed to have destroyed a sect called Seven Colors Palace many years ago in her previous life, though she wasn't sure if it was the same one.

"Hmph, Seven Colors Palace, the most evil sect in the Western Regions. You, a prince of Great Wei, actually collude with them. This is a capital offense." Xiao Yin coldly rebuked and then said, "Guards, seize him!"

"You dare!" The Prince of Kang shouted. He glanced around and, gritting his teeth, said, "Here, everyone is from the wealthy and powerful families of nearby cities. Emperor, do you have the ability to shake them?"

"Them?" Xiao Yin sneered and said, "Prince of Kang, you have committed countless evils. Today, you will be eliminated. I have already arranged everything. They have not done wrong nor conspired with you. Why would I make things difficult for them?"

"Today, if they do not move, there will be no trouble. Are these officials and merchants so brave that they are not afraid of death? Swords and blades know no mercy!" Xiaoyue said.

"Tsk, a smart mother is truly impressive. Uncle has such presence. Well, baby will give them something to think about!"

Ruo Xi's baby was best at injuring people with qi from a distance, like that Shangguan Jingzhe.

Like those who have done evil.

She extended her little hand and made a grabbing motion.

"Hisss!" Below, officials from other cities and wealthy gentry all raised their hands to cover their chests.

They felt a tightness and shortness of breath.

When people are sick, they become even more fearful.

"We, we are afraid!"

"Your Majesty, we commoners are here only for the funeral!"

Everyone knelt down, almost burying their heads in the dirt, trying to avoid being seen.

"You..." The Prince of Kang's face turned green and black.

"Hmm, good if you listen!" Ruo Xi's baby's inner voice carried a chill, making Xiao Yin raise an eyebrow. He even thought that if it were someone else's child targeting him, he would immediately surrender!
