Chapter 2182: Chapter 2182: Mommy smells good, Daddy smells bad!

Although this Central Emperor is destined to die young, she hasn’t finished what she needs to do yet. She can’t let him die so quickly–it would be far too easy for him.

“Yes, High Priest.”

Leng Yikun responded, raised his hand to take the porcelain bottle, walked to the Central Emperor’s side, knelt down, and forcibly shoved a medicinal pill into his mouth.

Originally, he intended to withdraw his hand, but when his gaze met the resentful glare in the Central Emperor’s eyes, he immediately let out a cold sneer, raised his hand, and slapped the Central Emperor’s face several times.

“You still have the energy to glare at me? Instead of wasting it, why not think carefully about what kind of death awaits you next?”

“Who… who are you people?”

The Central Emperor’s entire body was wracked with unbearable pain, as if his very bones had been broken and reconstructed.

Yet, he could still speak. He stared at Leng Yikun, questioning him. This was the imperial palace of the Central Imperial Country, guarded by so many soldiers–how did these people manage to infiltrate?

Moreover, he was the Central Emperor, the overlord of the Central Imperial Country. How could these people be so audacious, taking action against him without saying a single word?

No matter how much he thought about it, he couldn’t figure out where these people had come from.

“You can’t figure it out?”

Leng Yikun looked at him with a face full of mockery and responded with a counter-question.

Seeing the confusion in the Central Emperor’s eyes, he shook his head, thinking there wasn’t much difference between the Central Imperial Country and the Beikun Kingdom–they were practically the same.

“Not understanding makes sense. If you could figure it out, you wouldn’t have allied with the Beikun Kingdom to target the Yiinn Family.”

He slapped the Central Emperor’s face a few more times, with enough force to cause the Emperor’s lips to swell, before he finally felt satisfied and stood up to return to An Jiuyue’s side.

“You… you are people of Wulong Mountain?”

The Central Emperor looked utterly shocked, staring at the four before him in disbelief.

How could they arrive so swiftly? He hadn’t even had time to devise a countermeasure, and here they were already. What was he supposed to do now?

“No, it wasn’t me! It was the Emperor of Beikun who tricked me into targeting the Yiinn Family–it has nothing to do with me! If you want to blame someone, blame the Emperor of Beikun!”

Thinking of the fate that had already befallen the Emperor of Beikun, he grew fearful. He shook his head repeatedly, pushing all the blame onto the Emperor of Beikun.

In any case, the Emperor of Beikun was already dead. Even if he carried the burden of this blame, he couldn’t possibly rise from the grave to defend himself.

“You do whatever the Emperor of Beikun says? What’s the matter? Is the mighty Central Emperor nothing more than the Emperor of Beikun’s lapdog?” Yuu Rong retorted.

Qian Jiyun cast a cold glance at the Central Emperor. Deciding that the situation here wouldn’t reach its conclusion anytime soon, he casually brought out a table and chairs and set down some hot food and rice dishes.

“Jiuyue, come sit and have something to eat first.”

“Alright.”

Seeing the food, An Jiuyue rubbed her stomach.

She really was a bit hungry and intended to walk over to pick up Little Nuonuo, but her husband didn’t give her the chance–instead, he shifted his body to block her.

“I’ll hold Nuonuo; you eat first.”

The little baby, just about to throw himself into his mother’s arms: “!!”

Why?! He just wanted his mother to hold him. He didn’t want his father to hold him and feed him. Mother smelled so nice; father was stinky!

“Mama, food, feed me.”

“Papa will feed you.”

Qian Jiyun caught his son mid-pounce and repositioned him, sitting him down properly on another chair. With a stern face, he began instructing the boy.

“Nuonuo, your mother is very tired. You can’t keep making her hold you. Your father holding you is the same. Be good. Let’s eat–what would you like to have?”
