Chapter 238 Stinky Ah Xu! Stinky Dragon! You're dead!
As Helian Kuangmo drew closer, Zhai Rong's heart tightened, and her desire to flee intensified.
He reached out and suddenly pushed the screen open!
Suddenly, a faint blue light flashed, and Zhai Rong and He Junce disappeared from the spot.
Helian Kuangmo frowned as he looked at the empty inner room.
He seemed to have seen a faint light just now.
Could it be... an illusion?
He looked up at the moonlight streaming in through the window, his heart skipped a beat, and he hurried to the desk to open the hidden compartment. Seeing that the "Submerged Star" was still intact in the box, he breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
It's good that the items are still there.
Helian Kuangmo closed the lid, his large hand pressing down on the wooden box, a dark glint flashing in his eyes.
Once he coaxes Zhai Rongyu into willingly giving him a drop of blood, he can obtain the secret treasure hidden in the sunken star at the bottom of the water.
Over the years, he has studied the methods to unlock secret treasures, trying countless possibilities.
But there was still no progress.
It seems that, just as Sheng'er said, this thing can only be activated by her bloodline and bones, and only if she is willing.
Helian Kuangmo stroked the wooden box with his fingertips.
“Sheng’er, back then you kept saying that even if I took this underwater star, I would never be able to open it, and that I was not worthy.”
His expression was half-hidden, and a gloomy smile slowly crept onto his face, tinged with a hint of irony.
"Now do you think your daughter will fall into my hands?"
He thought of Minister Zhai from his memory.
He naturally loathed the child his daughter had with another man, and wished he could kill it!
Once he gets Zhai Rongyu's blood, he will immediately gouge out her eyes and kill her!
"Just keep those eyes..."
With those eyes still in his eyes, his Sheng'er will continue to stay with him, just like before.
"My dear Sheng'er..." He seemed to be trapped in endless darkness, his tone chilling, "You must see clearly from the underworld, watch how I open this treasure, and see whether I am worthy or not!"
His expression was wild as he raised his hand to close the hidden compartment.
Wu Muhong rushed over.
"His Majesty."
"Check if the core of the formation has been disturbed," Helian Kuangmo said.
Wu Muhong closed his eyes and made a hand seal. A moment later, a silver ring condensed in the void. It was perfectly bright and had not been tampered with.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, the core of the formation remains intact and undamaged."
He put away the magic array, his sharp eyes scanning the study.
"Has Your Majesty lost any items?"
Helian Kuangmo shook his head, his gaze sweeping over the Nine Nether Dragon Pattern Lock on the ground.
"No items were lost, and the array's core was not damaged; only the Nine Nether Dragon Pattern Lock was opened."
Wu Muyou checked the restrictions again but still found nothing wrong. After a moment's thought, he said, "The restrictions are not fluctuating. Perhaps the palace maid who locked it was clumsy."
"Who is on duty today?" Helian Kuangmo's anger surged, and he made a move to punish the two palace maids, but Wu Muyou stopped him, "Your Majesty, the time for the sacrifice is approaching, and it is not appropriate for blood to be shed in the palace."
Helian Kuangmo sat down, flicking his sleeves, looking impatient.
"Then punish them by deducting a year's salary!"
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, although today's events were unexpected, it would be best to replace the array's core as a precaution."
Helian Kuangmo gave him a cold look.
"The time for the sacrifice is approaching. If we want to replace the array core, we will have to postpone it for a few more days."
"I can't wait any longer!"
"Now that Wu Muli has been chosen as the next head of the family, it's best to get things done as soon as possible. The restrictions have already been loosened; if we delay any longer, will your Wu family be accused of accepting bribes?"
"Or is it that the Wu family intends to break the alliance?"
A cold glint flashed in his eyes.
Wu Muhong knelt down in fear, "Your subject dares not! Your subject has already chosen an auspicious time, and everything is ready."
"The sacrificial ceremony will begin tomorrow at 5:00 PM."
Seeing his respectful and submissive demeanor, Helian Kuangmo suppressed his anger, stood up, and walked outside.
"Set off for the sunken star palace."
Today's events are strange; he needs to go and confirm for himself whether it was Zhai Rongyu's doing.

Zhai Rong and Jun Ce landed in a space.
She peeked out from Jun Ce's embrace and stared wide-eyed at the sight before her.
It seems like this place has everything...
Looking around, exotic flowers and rare herbs, scriptures and scrolls, jewels and valuables... a dazzling array of objects came into view, and Zhai Rongyu suddenly realized something.
[This submerged star was actually a space.]
[And they even allow people to bring in!]
She suppressed her joy and patted Jun Ce on the back, "A Xu! Look!"
"Everything here was left by my mother!"
But the person in her arms didn't react at all, still drowsily resting their head on her shoulder, their body temperature rising higher and higher.
Zhai Rongyu touched his forehead anxiously; it was frighteningly hot.
"Ah Xu, are you alright?"
"Can you stand up straight?"
She reached out to push him away, but was forced back two steps by his weight, barely managing to regain her balance.
Jun Ce seemed somewhat displeased with her rejection. Without giving her a chance to explain, he buried his head back in her neck, his large hands encircling the girl's waist, unconsciously tightening his grip.
"So delicate..." he exclaimed unconsciously.
Zhai Rongyu's face flushed red. She reached out and grabbed the mischievous hand, somewhat embarrassed and angry, "You're not allowed to touch me!"
Is it true that when dragons get angry, they're always this irrational?
[Does he pounce on every woman he sees?]
She suddenly became a little angry.
If things turn out like this again, and I'm not by his side...
She glanced at Jun Ce out of the corner of her eye and saw that his usually solemn eyes were now glistening with a faint red, and he was staring intently at her.
They made no attempt to conceal their burning desire.
Zhai Rongyu was even angrier.
The angrier I get, the more I think about it, and the angrier I get!
Jun Ce was not in his right mind and did not notice the anger of the person in his arms. He only knew that they were no longer in Helian Kuangmo's study.
"Rong'er, is this the right occasion?"
There was a hint of joy in his tone.
Unable to contain his anger any longer, Zhai Rongyu angrily reached out and grabbed the two dragon horns on his head, lifting his head off his neck.
"Yes, yes, yes, what's right about it!"
"I'm warning you, stop pushing!"
"This thing is so hard it hurts!"
Her tone was threatening, and she tightened her grip, tugging hard at his dragon horns twice.
Jun Ce followed her movements, bowing slightly and shaking his head in confusion, not knowing why she was angry, but only seeing her cute appearance when she was angry.
The girl in front of me had slightly pouting red lips and her cheeks were flushed with a light pink tinge.
He reached out and cupped her face, squeezing her cheeks together, making her pout even more, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
"So cute."
"Get off me!" Zhai Rongyu glared at him, clapping his large hands together and shouting incoherently.
This is unfair! So unfair!
Ever since he gained spiritual power, I haven't been able to do anything about him!
A thought flashed through her mind, and she suddenly realized that she was no longer under the Wu family's restrictions.
You can use talismans!
【Stinky Ah Xu! Stinky Dragon!】
You're dead!
