Chapter 2167: Chapter 2167: Indeed, it’s Ruthless!

The expression on his face couldn’t have been more obvious—it was exactly what Lin Caisang had suggested.

Lin Caisang: "!!!"

This Emperor is truly awe-inspiring, truly deserving of admiration.

And according to her estimation, no one should know about this yet, right? Otherwise, the ministers would definitely go mad. There must have been several groups of people in the Ziyan Kingdom’s imperial palace ready to ram themselves into the pillars by now, right?

"May I presumptuously ask, who was originally buried in that place you mentioned?" she asked.

"The first Emperor from my Yin family ancestors, who no longer exists," Prince Niu answered.

"No longer exists?"

Hearing these four words, Lin Caisang raised her eyebrows.

Could it be that this Emperor is so unfilial that he not only removed his ancestor’s corpse from the sacred vein but also destroyed it?

How utterly disrespectful, how outrageously rebellious. Does such a person truly deserve to be a ruler?

"Was the Emperor the one who burned it with a fire?" she asked.

Prince Niu shook his head.

"Of course not."

"That’s what I thought."

Lin Caisang nodded her head in agreement.

Even if the corpse of that Yin family ancestor was exhumed, it would have turned into an immortal material. How could it possibly be burned? Ordinary fire wouldn’t be able to touch it.

For so many generations in Ziyan Kingdom, those buried in the imperial tombs atop the sacred vein have absorbed so much spiritual energy.

If the Emperor unearthed those people, how could he simply burn them?

He would definitely make use of it if possible, to create...

Suddenly, she lifted her head and stared intently at Prince Niu. Her face turned an unusual shade of green.

"Those ghostly contraptions in the Eastern Underground Palace, were they fashioned from the immortal materials of that Yin family ancestor’s corpse?" she asked.

That’s right, she wondered where all those toxic corpses came from. So it turns out, they were made from that Yin family ancestor’s corpse. That would explain it.

"This Emperor, he’s truly ruthless."

Prince Niu nodded, not denying her words.

His own imperial father, indeed, was merciless!

That was an ancestor of the Yin family, the first supreme ruler, just destroyed like that.

What’s more terrifying is that every time his father went to pay tribute with incense at the grand ancestral temple, he would stand before that ancestor’s memorial tablet for a whole hour.

Doesn’t he feel a chilling fear?

"Prince Niu, has this Emperor never considered that the way he treats his own ancestors today, in the future his empress might also be treated in a similar manner by his descendants?"

It’s too horrifying, this Emperor is too frightening.

"No."

Prince Niu uttered two words with a flicker in his eyes.

"Why?" Lin Caisang, puzzled, asked.

Why not? She felt it was very likely. Traditionally, those buried in the very center of the dragon vein could potentially undergo corpse transformation, it was only a matter of time.

Moreover, a corpse that has absorbed a significant amount of spiritual energy would be incredibly powerful after the transformation.

"I used to think it was possible and worried about this issue, but after today, such things will no longer happen," Prince Niu said, turning to look in the direction of the Eastern and Western Underground Palaces.

"Hmm?"

Lin Caisang didn’t quite understand what he meant.

What did he mean by after today? Surely it couldn’t be what she was imagining?

While she was contemplating, she heard Prince Niu, gazing into the distance with a somber look, utter a sentence.

"The Eastern and Western Underground Palaces have been destroyed, a great portion of the sacred vein has been ruined."
