Chapter 42 Defying Heaven! He even dared to curse the emperor.

In Liu Fu's eyes, the Liao emperor's little tricks were nothing more than children playing house.

If it were a case of stealing from the national treasury, Liu Fu would have to personally intervene, because only he could open the animal breeding ranch to store the goods.

But now it's just killing someone.

It's a very simple thing.

Liu Fu directly gave orders to the treasure-hunting rat. This noble rat king with light golden fur summoned a large number of rat minions under its master's command.

Moreover, as a strange beast, the rats within several miles are now terrified of the treasure-hunting rat.

Driven by it, the rat army quickly grew to over a thousand.

Yelü Yong, the seventh son of the Liao emperor, was a spoiled prince who could bully the weak, but would shrink back when he encountered someone more powerful than him, as docile as a kitten.

Upon hearing that the Liao emperor had bestowed upon him the beautiful Xiao family's daughter, he was overjoyed.

Normally, he would be so happy that he wouldn't be able to sleep for three days and three nights.

But things are different now.

Xiao Ying'er was betrothed to her elder brother, who then passed away.

She was betrothed to her third brother, who died without a complete corpse.

Now that she has been betrothed to him, even though she is an absolute beauty, the Seventh Prince really doesn't dare to make a move on Xiao Ying'er.

Upon entering the palace and arriving at the safe room specially prepared for him by the Liao Emperor, the Seventh Prince sat on a futon and kept muttering:

"To all the gods and immortals of the past, and to Brother Liu Fu, I was forced by my father, I really didn't mean to oppose you."

“I absolutely did not mean to oppose you. It was all my father’s doing. If I have offended you in any way, I apologize in advance.”

Anyway, the safe room is now closed, and no one saw what I did.

Yelü Yong knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times in each of the four directions, first saying all the good things.

Liu Fu just found it funny.

Judging from the information relayed back by the rats, Yelü Yong's personality is completely opposite to his name; he should be renamed Yelü Ruan, which would be more appropriate.

Inside the Liao Dynasty's Imperial Ancestral Temple, Liu Fu was still meditating with his eyes closed.

The Liao emperor secretly observed Liu Fu, occasionally opening his eyes to see what Liu Fu was doing.

The Liao emperor was in particularly good spirits during the first half of the night, keeping a close eye on Liu Fu's movements.

Looking at Liu Fu, he appears to be motionless on the surface, but in reality, he has been happily interacting with the Vajra, Qiongqi, and Suanni in the system's ranch.

When Liu Fu came out of the ranch late at night, he saw that the Liao emperor was already sleepy and starting to doze off.

At this moment, Liu Fu was muttering incantations, as if he were chanting a spell.

The Liao emperor was immediately startled awake by Liu Fu's voice. He nervously summoned a subordinate and whispered in his ear:

"Go quickly and see if the Seventh Prince is alright!"

In reality, the seventh prince in the safe room is perfectly fine.

The seventh prince was initially on tenterhooks, but he soon discovered it.

This safe room is constructed entirely of half-inch-thick iron plates, and is completely sealed on all sides, leaving only a few small ventilation holes.

Outside the safe room, there were thousands of imperial guards. The imperial guards patrolled in teams of fifty, with eight teams patrolling back and forth. It was no wonder that Liu Fu was not safe.

It was so bad that not even a fly could get in.

Once he realized that the safe room was absolutely safe, Yelü Yong's initial sense of awe gradually disappeared.

Instead, there was an absolute degree of arrogance and domineering.

"It turns out this place is so sturdy. With a half-inch thick iron plate, black dog blood, and exorcism talisman, it is not only impervious to swords and spears, but also unafraid of any evil spirits."

Yelü Yong suddenly had another idea:

"If I go back and decorate my residence like that, Liu Fu won't be able to make a move on me. At that time, it seems that I can marry Xiao Ying'er, this stunning beauty."

"Absolutely stunning, a celestial being!"

Thinking of this, Yelü Yong began to drool.

Outside the safe room, there was a knock on the door:

"Seventh Prince, are you alright?"

The seventh prince inside agreed, and the maid immediately went back to report to the Liao Emperor.

Upon learning that the Seventh Prince was indeed unharmed, the Liao Emperor was in high spirits.

Staring at Liu Fu, the Liao emperor began to speak in a sarcastic tone:

"Liu Fu, stop chanting incantations in my ancestral temple. There are always stronger hands among the strong, and there is always a higher mountain beyond the mountain. Some things should be accepted as fate, and we should not be too arrogant."

The Liao emperor looked at Liu Fu with a gloating expression. He thought Liu Fu was casting a curse on the seventh prince and that his own plan had worked, and that Liu Fu's evil magic had failed.

Then, ever the know-it-all, he instructed Liu Fu, saying:

"You should understand that evil cannot prevail over good. Stop chanting the incantation and save your breath."

Unexpectedly, just as the Liao emperor finished mocking Liu Fu, someone suddenly rushed in from outside.

"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!"

The Liao emperor was taken aback:

"What is it?"

"You should go and take a look! All the shamans who performed rituals at the gate... all of them are just skeletons now!"

The eunuch who came in to report looked flustered.

However, the Liao emperor personally oversaw the operation, not wanting to give Liu Fu any chance to play tricks. He immediately ordered people to bring over those shamans who performed rituals.

Standing in the Imperial Ancestral Temple at this moment, the Liao Emperor glanced at it and was greatly alarmed!

There were eight skeletons in total, including those of a shaman and a sorcerer.

But at this moment, there was not a trace of flesh or blood on the corpse, and the robes and sleeves were completely intact, with only a series of clean, white skeletons remaining inside the robes and sleeves.

The Liao emperor was startled and turned to look at Liu Fu.

Liu Fu simply shrugged, looking completely innocent.

"Don't look at me, what's it to me?"

The Liao emperor was suddenly alarmed and immediately dispatched men to check on the seventh prince's safe room.

But when those men arrived, no matter how they called out, the seventh prince in the safe room received no reply.

"That's not right. When I came to see him just now, the Seventh Prince even gave me a reply."

"Why is there no movement inside so quickly?"

Several Imperial Guards opened the safe room.

Like the Third Prince, and like those shamans and sorcerers.

The seventh prince, Yelü Yong, lay inside, still wearing his royal robes and golden crown.

But within the royal robes lay only a set of pristine, white bones, devoid of any flesh...

Upon witnessing this horrifying scene, everyone around gasped in shock, trembling with fear, and none dared to return to report to the Liao Emperor.

On the contrary, the Liao emperor, realizing that something was very wrong, immediately chased after them to the vicinity of the safe room.

When he saw the state of the safe room with his own eyes, he immediately felt a chill in his heart, overwhelmed by shame, anger, self-blame, and hatred...

Overwhelmed with mixed emotions, he drew his imperial sword, his eyes blazing with fury, and charged straight toward the Imperial Ancestral Temple, determined to fight Liu Fu to the death!

"Liu Fu, come out with me!"

The Liao emperor shouted loudly outside the Imperial Ancestral Temple.

Liu Fu was straightforward and walked straight out of the Imperial Ancestral Temple.

The Liao emperor was furious and said:

"You killed my son tonight, and I will make you pay with your blood!"

Upon hearing the Liao Emperor's words, Liu Fu immediately turned hostile, pointing his finger at the emperor and cursing:

"How could you, a fool, possibly become emperor?"

"I stayed with you in the Imperial Ancestral Temple the whole time and did nothing. You're saying I killed the Seventh Prince?"

"Where's the evidence?"

The Imperial Guards were completely shocked by what they saw!

How dare Liu Fu point his finger at the emperor and hurl insults at him?

unbelievable! ! !
