Chapter 1254: Chapter 1254: Order of the Ten Halls of Yama, Anuan Intimidates the Dog Emperor
Yunniang’s upper body remained human, while her lower half transformed into a dusty old rat.
The shape of the rat was as thick as the waists of two women.
Behind her, the tail that tapered from thick to thin was about one meter long and trembled violently with fear.
Xiao Jun’an’s Adam’s apple bobbed, his throat feeling dry, and the urge to vomit resurfaced.
Blood wasn’t frightening when one saw too much of it, but this disgustingly half-human, half-demon appearance was so abominable that it made him feel extremely uncomfortable in body and mind.
Xiao Jun’an suppressed the displeasure in his heart, revealing a gentle smile to Huo Yuning and asked softly, "What’s wrong?"
Let him be the dog Emperor then.
Compared to the safety of the Daqian Dynasty, this was nothing.
Xiao Jun’an gave the biggest tolerance of his life to Huo Yuning, who had such audacious capital.
He wasn’t sure how to deal with the beautiful girl in front of him, who exuded a bit of a sinister aura, so he could only soothe her in the direction of her fur.
Huo Yuning didn’t expect Xiao Jun’an to be so composed. As the Emperor, being called a dog Emperor yet not showing the slightest bit of anger, and still smiling at her.
Although the smile didn’t reach his eyes, just the tender smile from that handsome face was enough to make most women lose their hearts to him.
The way Xiao Jun’an reacted actually made Huo Yuning feel a shock of terror in her heart.
Such flexibility and the courage to suppress herself were not to be underestimated.
Being an Emperor, Xiao Jun’an could set aside his proud Royal Family status and become warm and friendly, which must mean he had an ulterior motive.
People like him, who had been in high positions for a long time, had a tough mind, accustomed to being above others.
If his aim was not met, he would surely retaliate.
Although Huo Yuning seemed carefree, she was the Little Princess of the Huo Family, the most powerful and influential entity in China, truly a distinguished and esteemed family.
She had been instilled with the wit and tact of those in power since childhood, so she understood this all too well.
Huo Yuning reined in her arrogance and narrowed her eyes, concentrating them on Xiao Jun’an.
The Emperor of Daqian exuded the noble stature of the Royal Family, and those of unstable mind would willingly submit to him, such was the natural aura of a ruler.
His facial features were sharp and handsome, compelling, and so striking that it was difficult to look away.
It had to be said that with such an outstanding appearance, beauty traps could be said to be infallibly effective.
Huo Yuning shifted her gaze, looking down at the rat spirit at her feet, deciding to send her away directly, to give the dog Emperor a setback.
After all, she was not some little girl dazzled by beauty and lacking brains.
When Huo Yuning looked up again, she gave Xiao Jun’an a toothy smile: "Your Majesty, you haven’t forgotten about our deal, have you?"
Xiao Jun’an nodded reservedly, his voice gentle, "Of course, I dare not forget."
Huo Yuning’s eyes narrowed slightly: "You asked me before how to obtain weapons that could quickly end the war. I will tell you now.
I will use the Dragon Vein’s luck from the Palace and your blood to open the barrier between the Daqian Dynasty and the era I was once in.
As long as the barrier is opened, you can have as many of the weapons you want, I’ll give you however much you need!"
"How dare you!"
An angry voice laced with a tremble came from beneath the table.
Anjin lifted the tablecloth, her eyes red with fury as she glared at Huo Yuning not far away: "The Emperor’s dragon body is sacred, not something you can covet!"
Let alone Anjin, even Mo Wanqing and the other guards were looking at Huo Yuning with guarded eyes.
As if she had proposed something utterly treasonous and insane.
Huo Yuning rubbed her temple, a flash of irony in her eyes, she knew it would be like this.
In this world where the Royal Family was revered, the Emperor’s dragon body was incredibly precious, and to want the Emperor’s blood was exceedingly difficult.
If word of this got out to the court, the civil and military officials could tear her apart.
Huo Yuning did not lack ways to obtain Xiao Jun’an’s blood, but it had to be done openly - he had to be willing to offer his blood to her.
Xiao Jun’an’s brows furrowed, clearly, he had not anticipated that Huo Yuning would play such a hand.
His voice was as gentle and pleasant as ever: "Beautiful Anjin, are you sure those weapons can resolve the border conflicts?"
Huo Yuning raised her delicate chin, confidently claiming, "Definitely!"
Xiao Jun’an’s eyes narrowed, his slender fingers with pronounced knuckles tapped lightly on the tabletop.
He lowered his gaze towards Yunniang, pondering, "What about the demons causing trouble among the common folk?"
Huo Yuning rolled her eyes and pointed at Yunniang sprawled on the ground: "Didn’t I say before, I, the grand dame, am least afraid of demons and ghosts, dealing with them is a matter of minutes!"
Xiao Jun’an remained impassive, his gaze on Huo Yuning as if looking at a rare object.
He did not doubt her words, but he could not fully trust her.
His thin lips moved slightly, continuing to ask: "Floods in the south, droughts in the north, how does Beautiful Anjin see it?"
Huo Yuning widened her eyes, her lips twitching, her face filled with disbelief.
"No way, our previous deal was only for me to provide you with weapons, to help you solve the unearthly disturbances, but we never said anything about handling the disasters, did we?"
There were so many people in the Daqian Dynasty, and it would cost a lot to rescue them from this plight.
Her treasury, though plentiful, was not prepared to be emptied for the sake of the dog Emperor.
Xiao Jun’an did not look away and fell silent.
Clearly, he wanted to negotiate and make full use of Huo Yuning.
Huo Yuning saw the dog Emperor’s intention and laughed in anger.
She scoffed lightly, "Heh!"
As Xiao Jun’an looked up, the smile on Huo Yuning’s face vanished, and her hands quickly formed seals.
"Yama teaches me to kill ghosts, with my mystic spells, to drive my slaughter; no god could resist, no ghost dare stand, Yama command with haste, I decree, where are you, Underworld Envoy?!"
Huo Yuning was enveloped in sacred golden light, as if a goddess had descended to earth, surrounded by an ethereal aura.
The brightly decorated room was suddenly enveloped in thick black mist.
The sound of iron chains dragging on the ground echoed, and two dark shadows approached from afar, kneeling at Huo Yuning’s feet.
"Black Envoy greets the Princess!"
"White Envoy greets the Princess!"
Black and White Impermanence knelt before Huo Yuning, their demeanor humble and their tone very respectful.
This scene once again shocked Xiao Jun’an and the others, filled with both awe and fear.
Especially Anjin, who witnessed the pale-faced Black and White Impermanence, and the soul-hooking chains and mourning sticks in their hands, was so frightened that she fainted on the spot.
Huo Yuning’s eyes and expression were cold and arrogant, her tone enigmatic, "I didn’t expect to actually summon you, where are my father and mother?"
The Black and White envoys kept their mouths tightly shut, not saying a word.
