Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

He sat cross-legged and began to practice the Nine Yang Magic Skill. Since learning this skill, he felt that his body was filled with endless power, as if he had endless energy.

While he was practicing, there was a sound of footsteps outside the temple. Chu Ze opened his eyes alertly and concentrated on his guard.

A dark shadow flashed into the temple. With the help of the firelight, Chu Ze could see clearly that the person was a ragged beggar.

The beggar was unkempt, smelled bad, and held a half-soured steamed bun in his hand. When he saw Chu Ze, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled flatteringly: "Sir, please be kind and give me something to eat. I haven't eaten for three days."

Chu Ze didn't want to pay attention to it, but then he thought that this beggar might be able to provide some useful information. He took out a piece of silver from his pocket and threw it to the beggar: "Tell me, what big things have happened in the capital recently?"

The beggar took the silver, his eyes sparkling, and he kowtowed in thanks: "Thank you, sir, thank you, sir! I know, I know! The capital has not been peaceful recently, the emperor has passed away, Concubine Li..."

The beggar exaggerated the rumors he had heard in the tavern and said mysteriously at the end: "I also heard that Concubine Li and the commander of the imperial guards, Zhao Kun..." He winked and made an ambiguous gesture.

Chu Ze understood in his heart that Zhao Kun had become Li Fei's lackey. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, you can go now."

The beggar thanked him profusely and left the temple. Chu Ze looked at the beggar's back as he left, a sneer on his face. Concubine Li, Zhao Kun, your good days are over!

In the next few days, Chu Ze gathered information in the city during the day and returned to the ruined temple to practice the Nine Yang Magic Skill at night. He learned that Concubine Li had taken control of the government and was preparing to ascend the throne and become emperor in three days.

Three days later, the coronation ceremony took place. Inside and outside the palace, there were lanterns and decorations, creating a festive atmosphere. Civil and military officials gathered in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, waiting for the new emperor to arrive.

Concubine Li, wearing a dragon robe and a crown, slowly walked up to the dragon throne surrounded by a group of guards. She looked around with a proud look in her eyes.

"Everyone, please stand up." Concubine Li's voice was crisp and pleasant, but it carried a hint of unquestionable majesty.

The ministers shouted "Long live the emperor" with a deafening sound. At this moment, a cold snort came from outside the palace: "What a grand coronation ceremony! I am not even dead yet, and you can't wait to sit on this throne?"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man in black walking into the Hall of Supreme Harmony with the gait of a dragon or a tiger. He had a stern face, sharp eyes, and a powerful aura emanating from his body.

“Chu…Chu Ze?!” Concubine Li’s face changed drastically and she screamed in horror.

"Yes, it is me!" Chu Ze walked up to Concubine Li and looked down at her. "You evil woman, you actually dared to murder me. Today, I will make you pay with blood!"

Concubine Li was so frightened that she was shaking all over. She pointed at Chu Ze and said incoherently: "You...you are not...you are not dead? This...this is impossible!"

Chu Ze sneered and pulled off Concubine Li's crown, revealing her terrified face. He turned to look at the ministers of His Highness and said loudly, "I'm back! Why don't you kneel down and worship me!"

There was total silence in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The ministers looked at each other, not knowing what to do...

The palace was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Concubine Li's breathing was clearly audible. Her face was pale and her lips were trembling, but she couldn't utter a single word. Seeing this, Zhao Kun stood up with forced calmness, put his hand on the hilt of his sword, and shouted sternly: "You bold lunatic, how dare you impersonate the emperor! Come, take him down!"

The imperial guards outside the palace heard the order and filed in, surrounding Chu Ze. Chu Ze glanced at them with disdain and sneered, "You think you can stop me with these shrimp soldiers and crab generals?"

Before he finished speaking, he had already moved. He was seen moving among the imperial guards like a ghost, punching and kicking like raindrops. Screams came one after another, and the imperial guards fell to the ground one by one, wailing.

Zhao Kun was stunned. He had never seen such terrifying skills. He knew he was no match for Chu Ze, so he turned around and tried to escape.

"Want to run? Not that easy!" Chu Ze dodged and blocked Zhao Kun's way. He grabbed Zhao Kun's collar and lifted him up like a chicken.

"Your Majesty, spare me! Your Majesty, spare me!" Zhao Kun was so frightened that his soul was about to leave his body, and he desperately begged for mercy. Chu Ze sneered, exerted force with his hands, and with a "click", Zhao Kun's neck was broken.

Zhao Kun's body fell limply to the ground, and everyone in the palace was so frightened that they dared not breathe. Concubine Li even slumped on the ground, her face as pale as paper.

Chu Ze walked towards Concubine Li step by step, and every step seemed to step on her heart. Concubine Li looked at him in horror, her eyes full of despair.

"What...what do you want to do?" Concubine Li asked tremblingly.

"What?" Chu Ze sneered, "I want you to pay with blood!"

He grabbed Concubine Li's hair and dragged her up from the ground. Concubine Li's screams echoed throughout the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Chu Ze dragged Concubine Li to the dragon throne and pressed her down on it. He looked down at Concubine Li with murderous intent in his eyes.

"I ask you, where is my son?" Chu Ze's voice was icy cold.

Concubine Li was shaking with fear, she knew that Chu Ze was asking about the child born from her affair with Zhao Kun.

"I...I don't know..." Concubine Li stuttered.

"I don't know?" Chu Ze sneered, "It seems that you are not willing to accept my toast!"

He raised his hand and slapped Concubine Li hard. A bright red palm print immediately appeared on Concubine Li's face.

"Tell me! Where is my son?" Chu Ze asked again, his tone even colder.

Concubine Li was beaten so hard that she felt dizzy, but she knew that Chu Ze would never let her go if she didn't tell him the whereabouts of her child.

"In...in the cold palace..." Concubine Li finally revealed the whereabouts of the child.

Chu Ze heard this, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He pushed Concubine Li to the ground and turned to walk out of the palace.

"Someone, throw this vicious woman into the Sky Prison and wait for her punishment!" Chu Ze ordered coldly.

Two guards stepped forward and dragged Concubine Li away.

Chu Ze walked out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony and headed straight for the Cold Palace. He wanted to see his son, the child he had high hopes for.

The cold palace is located in the deepest part of the palace. It is dark and damp, and there is no sunlight all year round. Chu Ze came to the door of the cold palace and saw a ragged little boy squatting on the ground playing with mud.

The little boy looked only five or six years old, with a chubby face and very cute. When he saw Chu Ze, he raised his head curiously and asked, "Who are you?"

Chu Ze looked at the little boy, feeling mixed emotions. This was his son, but he was suffering in the cold palace.

He squatted down and said to the little boy gently: "Child, I am your father."

The little boy was stunned for a moment, then showed a surprised expression: "You are the father? You are really the father?" (End of this chapter)
