Chapter 290 How Can We Achieve the Best of Both Worlds?

"You crazy man."

Shangguan Hongcheng couldn't speak anymore.

Because the flying instinct was suppressed, the dragon fell directly downwards, and the strong wind resistance blocked his mouth directly.

"Ling'er!"

Wu Mei looked at Ling Yaning who fell into the clouds and quickly disappeared, and couldn't help shouting again.

She only hated that her own martial arts were too weak and she was completely helpless in the current situation.

The consequences of falling from a height of 10,000 meters can be imagined.

Ling Yaning proved his loyalty to her with his life.

But until now she didn't understand why Ling'er, who was loyal to her, would reveal her whereabouts to the three officials in the palace in real time.

Not only Wu Mei, but the other people on the Tianzhou obviously didn't expect Ling Yaning to really die with Shangguan Hongcheng.

She didn't have to die, but she did it anyway.

On the one hand, it was for Wu Mei's safety.

But on the other hand, the fate she said cast a sense of weirdness in everyone's hearts.

"It seems that she is like a puppet."

Jiuluo pondered for a while, and then said: "What she said was destined, it should be that she thought she should do what she is doing now at this time."

"It's Chai Hong!"

Wu Mei clenched her fists tightly and gritted her teeth.

"Ling'er's trust in Chai Hong has reached a pathological level. It must be that Chai Hong used words to bewitch Ling'er, so Ling'er was buried here."

"Master Gao, you should have a way to get rid of him, right?"

When saying this, Wu Mei's tone was cold, as if she was not going to get rid of the three officials in the palace, but a strange enemy.

"As long as you can get rid of him, the position of the three officials in the palace can be taken by the Gao family."

"You don't want to be the emperor?" Shasha said bluntly.

Letting the Gao family take the position of the three officials is just to let the Gao family replace the position of the Wuji League. Wu Mei's situation will not be any different from now.

Facing Sasha's question, Wu Mei shook her head resolutely.

"How can I have both in this world, not betraying the country and not betraying you."

After Ling Yaning's death, she no longer cared about the imperial power and the country of Dawu.

Until this moment, Wu Mei realized what she really pursued.

She never asked for the removal of the royal curse.

But to enjoy the joy of being able to get rid of rules and constraints and travel with people she trusted.

Such a simple thing, she didn't understand it until Ling Yaning's death.

"I am now a widow. If the Gao family can really help me kill the Grand Marshal, what can I do if I give up all the country?"

Unconsciously, Wu Mei's address to herself has changed from "I" to "I".

She knew that she couldn't have no other supporters in the court.

But it didn't matter anymore.

Ling Yaning was the one who protected her since she was a child. They were not only friends, but also monarchs and ministers, and even better than sisters.

No one can replace Ling Yaning's position in Wu Mei's heart.

[You received a bounty: assassinate Grand Chancellor Chai Hong]

[Reward: Dawu Dynasty reputation +3000000, positions of Grand Marshal, Grand Tutor, Grand Chancellor. ]

The war game prompt was actually triggered.

Only then did Gao Qiang look at Wu Mei squarely.

It seems that this idea was not just a whim of Wu Mei.

She was really willing to do this for the dead Ling Yaning.

It also means that as long as Chai Hong is killed.

Gao Qiang can not only restore order to his identity as a traitor.

He will also gain the highest reputation value in the Dawu Dynasty, and no one can shake Gao Qiang's position.

Thinking that Chai Hong is also a member of the Wuji League, Gao Qiang has no intention of refusing.

"Let's go back to the Gao family and make plans for this matter."

Judging from the fact that Yu Fu had killed him twice in a row, Chai Hong is not difficult to kill.

What really makes people embarrassed is that Chai Hong has no idea what means he used to be resurrected again and again.

Even when Chai Hong was resurrected, the objects in his hands could be restored to their original state, just like a haunted place.

This is the difficulty in dealing with Chai Hong.

Wu Mei also knew this. After nodding, she stood aside silently, staring at the clouds under the Tianzhou in a daze.

Tianzhou quickly left the original place.

And a voice suddenly sounded at the place where the giant dragon fell.

"Heh, is it destined?"

Standing firmly on the ground, Shangguan Hongcheng looked at Ling Yaning coldly.

Falling from a height of 10,000 meters, the giant dragon was smashed into a pulp in the first time.

And Ling Yaning, who was standing on the back of the giant dragon, was not much better.

The ribs of the giant dragon were directly pierced by the impact when it landed, and one of the ribs pierced Ling Yaning's chest.

At this moment, Ling Yaning was suspended in the air by the bone spurs, with her mouth open, but she couldn't breathe at all.

Her lungs were completely damaged.

At the last moment of her life, Ling Yaning still stared at Shangguan Hongcheng with eyes wide open in disbelief, and died with eyes wide open.

It was not until the moment when the giant dragon fell from the clouds that she saw what was lurking below the clouds.

Tens of thousands of warriors with mechanical wings on their backs.

The mechanisms on these warriors could not support them to fly too high, so they could only wait below the clouds.

Shangguan Hongcheng was picked up by his men as soon as he fell from the clouds, and then he landed safely.

However, he was destined to die here...

Ling Yaning's consciousness had completely dissipated.

Shangguan Hongcheng withdrew his gaze from Ling Yaning.

He looked at the direction where Tianzhou left again and clenched his fists.

"Fate?"

"I only know one fate."

"No one can escape!"

......

It was a few days later when Tianzhou returned to Gao's house.

During this period, Gao Qiang did not find any unusual movements in the cities and passes he passed by from the sky.

Whether it was Shangguan Hongcheng, whose life or death was unknown, or Chai Hong, who was hiding in the dark, they had no intention of contacting other lords of Wuji League.

It seemed like the calm before the storm.

Tianzhou gently docked in the courtyard of Gao's family.

And a small figure had been waiting here for a long time.

"Lord~"

Wearing a wolfskin coat, Hai Youqin stood in front of Tianzhou with a sinister smile on her face.

"You're back~"

"Ahem, you're back too, it's quite early."

Gao Qiang moved his eyes to the side, not knowing how he had upset the material officer again.

Could it be because the journey to the bitter cold land was not smooth?

"I just came back too." Hai Youqin said casually.

But then she changed the subject and looked at Gao Qiang with narrowed eyes.

"Did the Lord touch my stored clothes again?"

"You..."

Gao Qiang was about to ask how did you know, but he held back and said, "Are you kidding?"

"What is she wearing?"

Hai Youqin pointed at Wu Mei on the Tianzhou and smiled slightly, and a dangerous aura gradually rose behind her.
