The Daughter Of Destiny Broke Off The Engagement? I Married Her Sister Instead.

Chapter 183 Dream Invocation

"Who?"

Not sure who his father was referring to, Chu Qianqiu scanned the soldiers below.

Soon, he saw a familiar figure and understood his father's intention.

"Tang Zhao, you're still alive, huh?"

Quickly moving to Tang Zhao's side, Chu Qianqiu couldn't help but be angry.

Looking at this guy, who seemed to have just woken up, made him even more furious.

"You promised to take care of Qiao Xiaoxiao for me. What's the situation now?"

"And now, with all this happening in the imperial city, you haven't heard anything for half a day. If I hadn't found you here, I would have thought you had betrayed us!"

Grabbing this guy's clothes, Chu Qianqiu was ready to throw him out.

Tang Zhao and the others had clearly just regained consciousness, their senses not fully restored.

After being thrown to the ground, he stood up, rubbed his eyes, and looked at the person in front of him, gradually regaining his composure.

"Brother Qianqiu, it's you..."

"Sorry, it's all my fault. I didn't take good care of Miss Qiao Xiaoxiao."

"There are some things that I miscalculated..."

He said this with deep remorse.

For some reason, he looked more haggard than anyone else at the moment.

Perhaps it was because he had lost his heart, he now looked extremely weak and seemed to lack energy.

Seeing his condition, Chu Qianqiu decided not to trouble him anymore and asked him to explain the current situation first.

"Tell me, what's the situation now?"

"How did the imperial city end up like this?"

As he asked, he glanced at the giant black gate that was within reach, feeling an inexplicable sense of pressure.

Tang Zhao took a few breaths and then cleared his thoughts before speaking.

"I miscalculated."

"I was too naive, thinking that the Law Weapon my father collected from the blood of soldiers on the battlefield was just the Blood Bath Demon Pot."

"But it turns out, he had other plans."

"He had already set up something unknown on the battlefield. Once the war was over, it would execute its command to absorb all the blood and transport it back to the imperial city."

Saying this, Tang Zhao naturally felt guilty.

Chu Qianqiu took out the Blood Bath Demon Pot and shook his head, indicating that he had guessed this.

"So, the reason the imperial city has become like this is because your father absorbed a large amount of blood, restoring his strength to its peak, and set it all up?"

"Yes, but there are other reasons that caused the incident to happen earlier."

"What reasons?"

"It's related to that girl, Qiao Xiaoxiao."

Suddenly, it involved Qiao Xiaoxiao.

Tang Zhao continued, recounting what had happened before.

"After you won a great victory on the border battlefield, I immediately led the troops back to the imperial city."

"When I returned, I first went to visit Qiao Xiaoxiao and found that she had disappeared. The palace maids who were supposed to be taking care of her were kneeling before me in fear. I knew that this little girl had sneaked out."

"Because if she were taken away by someone, the palace maids would tell me who did it, rather than kneeling down and admitting their mistake."

"At that time, I thought to myself that this little one should be fine, maybe she just couldn't adapt to palace life and left early."

"So, I started to test the plan to murder the emperor and prepare for other things."

"And from my understanding of the emperor, as long as you return victorious this time, then my father will not be able to achieve his goal, which is to feed on the blood of soldiers on the battlefield. In this way, his power will completely decline to a dying level, and at that time, I only need to make a slight move, and he will completely perish in this world."

"I have already planned it out, and even sent soldiers to ambush in various positions in the imperial city to prevent any mishaps."

"But when I arrived by my father's side, I found that he had already disappeared."

"And within the imperial city, a gray barrier began to envelop it, isolating the entire city from the outside world."

"At that time, I immediately thought of something and quickly came to this place to investigate the secret realm beneath the imperial city."

"As expected, when I arrived, my father's physical body had already broken free from the aging condition and returned to his youth. His strength was also recovering, and for a moment, I felt the threat of death."

"When my father turned to look at me, I understood that he had already detected my tricks and knew everything that had happened before."

"In front of him, I was still too naive, so he left himself a way out."

"He attacked with a bloody palm, and I was sent flying, but fortunately, he had not yet fully recovered his peak strength, so I managed to survive."

"And, at that moment, it seemed that my father was not interested in staying with me, but wanted to capture a figure in front of him."

"I looked closely and realized that it was Qiao Xiaoxiao, who had gone missing in the imperial city. I didn't expect her to appear in this place."

"I don't know how she managed to follow the path outside the imperial city, enter the Emperor's Tower, and find the secret realm within the imperial city. What's even more unimaginable is that she could ignore the first layer of the secret realm and directly penetrate into it!"

"At that time, perhaps my father was also shocked by this, so he chased after her crazily, wanting to catch her, but he was still a step too slow and let her enter."

"It was also at this time that your father, Chu Qianqiu, and this little Stephanie arrived in time and led the army from outside the imperial city to attack."

"We all gathered in the secret realm and soon engaged in a fierce battle with my father."

"At first, we completely dominated the situation, and my father had no power to fight back."

"But as he continuously absorbed the fresh blood flowing into him from all around, his strength grew stronger and stronger, until he directly recovered to his peak state!"

"He struck with a palm, and the entrance to the secret realm trembled."

"If it weren't for this redhead Stephanie being present, I'm afraid that all of us would have been killed."

...

At this point, Tang Zhao paused.

Chu Qianqiu frowned, urging him to continue. What happened to that old man later?

"So, where is your father?"

"He was taken away by the sudden appearance of the dark magic eye at the gate and entered the secret realm."

"And after we saw this magic eye, we gradually lost consciousness, as if falling into a deep sleep."

"When I woke up again, the first thing I saw was you."

...

Tang Zhao finished recounting everything that had happened.

Chu Qianqiu remained silent, turning to look at the giant gate, feeling a sense of desolation.

This gate was actually the secret realm within the Rising Sun Empire.

And Qiao Xiaoxiao was able to penetrate directly into it!

No wonder this guy came to this place.

She must have been summoned by the secret realm gate, ignoring Tang Zhao's warning and taking the risk to come here.

In that case, it's not entirely Tang Zhao's fault.
