"He will kill you!" Qi Yun looked into You Su’s eyes and said slowly, "If you really take over my body, then I will no longer be me, nor his father. He will kill you!"

You Su’s maniacal laughter gradually stopped, and he nodded, "Yes, he will kill me. He is a man of passion, but sometimes it makes him reckless. If I really take over you, he will hunt me to the ends of the earth, haha..."

"But..."

You Su changed his tone and looked at Qi Yun again, "What of it? Once I possess you, I will immediately leave. Can he find me? Hahahaha!"

His laughter was rampant, and it was evident that he had great confidence in his ability to escape.

Indeed, the Tianxing Pavilion had been pursuing him for years, yet he always managed to escape, which fed You Su’s growing arrogance.

Power is the breeding ground for arrogance!

Qi Yun looked at him, then retreated backward.

You Su sneered, and then he flew out from Rong Si’s brow, heading straight for Qi Yun’s forehead.

"Swish!"

In an instant, that speck of light entered Qi Yun’s brow, and Qi Yun became stiff, as if he suddenly lost his soul.

Of course, this was only how it appeared to outsiders.

At this moment, in Qi Yun’s mind...

All around was an expanse of whiteness, and a black shadow suddenly appeared in this white world, simultaneously another golden figure entered.

This black shadow was unmistakably You Su, and the golden glow was Qi Yun!

The two stood in this white world, which appeared especially bizarre.

Upon entering this spiritual world, You Su was initially stunned. He looked around and found opposite him, Qi Yun standing, bathed in golden light. At that moment, he was alarmed.

Qi Yun...

Why is this Sea of Consciousness so vast, truly like an ocean, and why is Qi Yun bathed in golden light?

The golden glow was so intense it blinded him!

"Ah—"

You Su let out a painful scream, angrily glaring at Qi Yun, "You... you, who exactly are you? Who? You are not Qi Yun, you are not the Emperor of Dazhou. Why is your soul power so strong, why? Why?!!"

You Su felt on the verge of collapse. He had painstakingly designed this plan, leaving Li Qingmu and the others in the Southern Territory, while he headed to Shengjing’s Beiyuan Palace to possess Qi Yun.

But can someone tell him what is going on?

Why does an ordinary earthly emperor have such a terrifying Sea of Consciousness? The fog filled with vast energy engulfed him in an instant; he felt like a pitiful creature trapped in a marsh, struggling to no avail!

"No, no, no!"

He struggled and shouted with all his might, but it was useless; he couldn’t break free!

The surrounding white light closed in on him gradually and swallowed him bit by bit.

It was truly swallowing!

You Su panicked; he desperately struggled, trying to escape, but this place wouldn’t let him easily find a way out.

Qi Yun’s golden figure moved swiftly to You Su’s side, encircling him. Soon, a cocoon-like golden net appeared, trapping You Su inside.

His movements sealed, You Su couldn’t move; he struggled desperately, but the white mist came ever closer, then...

"Ah—"

You Su let out a piercing scream, then was pressed and exploded by the white fog, disintegrating with a bang!

"Poof!"

Almost at the same time, Qi Yun suddenly opened his eyes and spat out a mouthful of blood!

"Master!"

A few people suddenly appeared beside Qi Yun, hurriedly supporting him. Qi Yun merely waved his hand, "It’s no problem, just an overexertion for a moment!"

His expression was calm, and his tone was serene, reassuring others.

"Master, this time you’ve exhausted your soul too much; you must rest quickly, or the consequences are unimaginable!"

These people were the Silver Armor Guards; Xuan Xu was protecting Li Qingmu, while they remained here to protect Qi Yun and the two children.

Having killed You Su in his spiritual world, Qi Yun was somewhat affected, so his complexion was bad. He waved his hand, letting them take him to rest.

As for Rong Si, having been possessed by You Su, she was also unconscious.

Yet, she was Qi Yun’s woman; no one dared to touch her, so she lay unconscious on the table.

"Grandpa, Imperial Grandmother, what... what happened to you?"

Xiao Rui’er ran inside, saw Rong Si unconscious and Qi Yun drowsy, worried about them, quickly inquiring.

Qi Yun managed to muster some spirit, touching his grandson’s head: "It’s nothing... Grandpa is just tired and wants to rest for a while, and so does your Imperial Grandmother."

"Oh..."

The little guy blinked wide-eyed, looking at him with confusion, feeling that he wasn’t being told the truth.

But, since Grandpa didn’t want to tell him the truth, there was no point in asking further.

This child was just so smart.

He glanced at his sister still sleeping soundly in the cradle and said, "Grandpa, you rest first, I will take care of my sister!"

"Good, good, good child, obedient!"

He really was a clever and adorable child.

Qi Yun went to rest; Rui’er took care of his sister, and when Li Qingmu and Long Yue returned in a hurry, this was the scene they observed.

Rong Si lay resting at the table, Qi Yun resting inside, everything appearing normal.

The couple exchanged glances, feeling perplexed. Had they guessed wrong? Otherwise, why did nothing happen to Qi Yun?

Looking at the Silver Armor Guards nearby, they said nothing, so it surely meant no issues, right?

Li Qingmu still wasn’t sure, so he went to check on Qi Yun’s condition.

Heartbeat, breathing, both normal; Long Yue also listened and said, "It’s indeed the Supreme Emperor; no matter how someone imitates, they cannot replicate the bloodline. I can now sense that he is definitely Father!"

Seeing Long Yue so decisively declare, Li Qingmu finally felt assured, then glanced at the Silver Armor Guards, asking, "What exactly happened to cause Father to faint?"

"This..."

The Silver Armor Guards hesitated, unsure if they should speak of it.

After thinking it over, he said, "Your Highness, better wait for the master to wake up and ask him personally. There are things we dare not say!"

Oh, worried about breaking taboos?

Li Qingmu did not force them, saying, "Okay!"

Thus, Long Yue and Li Qingmu temporarily stayed, taking care of the two unconscious elders and two children, truly busy beyond measure. Fortunately, the Silver Armor Guards occasionally assisted, yet... these people could act as guards, but caretaking was truly... a matter left unsaid.

In the end, they did it themselves.

Finally, after much toil, on the fifth day, Qi Yun awoke.

Li Qingmu urgently voiced his doubts, asking.
