By the time Gong Yimo carried Cang Xiu’s head back, there was another lightning. It shone on her and made her seem as scary as a supernatural.

  Water dripped down on her, and her pitch-black hair clung to her body. Her black collar was glued to her skin, and it revealed her figure from top to bottom. It also made her seem very battered.

  She stood in front of the sedan chair, her gaze coldly sweeping through the palace troop.

  There must be moles inside the troop, but it was fine. Since she already walked to this point, she didn’t mind being high-profile.

  The leading official was stunned/ He didn’t expect for such a powerful person to die under Gong Yimo’s hands!

  Therefore, when he saw Gong Yimo coming back, he hurried over and said a bit anxiously, “Princess, let’s hurry. We don’t have much time.”


  They only had two hours, no more and no less.

  Gong Yimo hummed in agreement and flew into the sedan chair.

  The moment she sat down, the leading official sighed and hurriedly exclaimed, “Rise—!”


  No matter how afraid people were of Gong Yimo, they had to stand still and do their own jobs. But it was raining right now, so they didn’t need to scatter the petals. The leading official didn’t think about anything else, just wanting everything to go smoothly. He’d burn incense!

  Meanwhile, Gong Yimo finally calmed down and sighed.

  However, the rain poured more and more!

  The sudden claps of thunder occurred nonstop.

  Even if no one said anything, it was clear that everyone was frightened.

  This was supposed to be a ceremonial troop, but everyone wore sad expressions as if they were mourning for someone’s death.

  Gong Yimo had experienced a bizarre scene from heaven in her past life too. However, she didn’t care about this. In her past life on this day, nothing big happened either. No matter how strange the weather was, people just discussed it over tea and forgot about it.

  Therefore, she didn’t remember the exact date, nor did she know that the auspicious day the empress dowager chose was today!

  However, she knew the reason behind this ever since she saw Cang Xiu.

  As expected, it was that woman’s work!

  That woman who married Prince Luo Ye and claimed to be a master in all aspects!

  She actually came too! Da Yu was going to become more and more lively……

  What a pity that she felt comforted too early.

  Thunder roared in the sky. Just as the ceremonial troop came to the last subroad, the lightning finally flashed!

  It seemed to have eyes as it struck down on the ground. Right after, the thunder exploded and pierced everyone’s eardrums, covering everyone’s cries of fear.

  That lightning was too close. They just heard a faint cry within the chaos, and they couldn’t see anything.

  People escaped in all directions within the troop. The imperial guards couldn’t control the situation and the scene was chaotic.

  The palace servants carrying the sedan chair had no choice but to move out of the way because the lightning was too close. It struck right in front of the tassels of the sedan chair. The palace maid carrying the imperial canopy was burned to death on the scene, dying a terrifying death. The palace servants all let go of the sedan chair, afraid. The huge golden lotus-shaped sedan chair banged against the ground, and dust blew in the air.

  Those in the corner watched as the palace servants ran in all directions, finally revealing smiles.

  Gong Yimo held in her dizziness and got out of the sedan chair after hearing the chatter.

  The moment she came out, she saw the palace maid that died carrying the imperial canopy. Her body was burned to death, and the imperial canopy was in ruins too.
