Godly Empress Doctor Chapter 4252: The Finale (7)
Previously on Godly Empress Doctor...
“The late crown prince was murdered with poison by His Majesty.”
A composed voice drifted from nearby. Turning toward the sound, the crowd discovered it was Hua Yangzi who had spoken.
“Years ago, Master revealed that His Majesty used a slow-acting Bone Eroding Blue Powder to kill the late crown prince. It is a toxin that claims lives gradually and without detection.”
In an instant, every gaze shifted toward Emperor Yan.
Remaining completely unruffled, Emperor Yan spoke with deliberate slowness. “Cease these slanders. You claim to have heard this from my third brother, but where is he? If you can produce him, only then will I accept such accusations.”
Where could Master Mu be found?
The location of Master Mu was a mystery to all. According to the emperor’s previous claims, Master Mu had already perished.
Fingering his bright yellow belt, Emperor Yan let out a cold laugh. “Your Master Mu has been dead for a long time. Do you wish to know where his tendons are?”
The eyes of the crowd were drawn to the belt around Emperor Yan’s waist.
Emperor Yan declared, “He actually dared to attempt an assassination against me! I would never permit such a thing! I executed him justly!”
“You are lying!” Hua Yangzi shouted.
Emperor Yan countered, “Back then, he sought to eliminate the sole bloodline of the late crown prince. Had both that infant and I perished, the empire would have fallen into his hands. I could not allow that to happen!”
Even the disciples of Sacred Mu Cliff were filled with rage. This emperor was a consummate liar!
“If it is otherwise, command him to appear. The moment he stands before me, I shall believe you! Heh!” Emperor Yan boasted arrogantly. Just then, a serene voice reached his ears.
“Is that truly the case?”
A figure that was tall, haughty, and full of grace materialized before them.
“Master!!!”
Feng Wu reacted before anyone else. She sprinted to her beautiful master’s side, clutching his arm tightly. “Master!”
“Master!”
“Master!!!”
The entire crowd was swept up in excitement.
Hua Yangzi, Dao Yu, Chu Tianxiao, the Sage of Calligraphy, Master Linghu, and Patriarch Helian—all men who valued their master more than their own lives—broke into tears upon seeing Mu Jiuzhou.
Even the usually stoic Hua Yangzi fell to his knees, greeting his master with eyes brimming with tears.
Mu Jiuzhou scanned his disciples before his eyes settled on Feng Wu. Patting her head, he let out an emotional sigh. “I never imagined that you would be the one to save my life in the end. It has been a difficult journey for you.”
Thinking back on all the trials she had endured, Feng Wu began to cry. Mu Jiuzhou stroked her head, caught between amusement and sympathy. “You little crybaby.”
Though Feng Wu remained as stubborn as ever, in the eyes of her master, she was still that young girl.
The principal gave Luo Nantian a nudge. “It’s him! It is Master Mu!”
The third prince who had once been their greatest hope!
Luo Nantian was just as stunned.
They had lived under the assumption that the third prince was deceased, yet he had returned to the world of the living!
Had Master Mu taken the throne, the Luo family would never have faced such friction with the imperial house, and matters would not have escalated to this point. The Luo family had originally been Master Mu's supporters!
Meanwhile, Mu Jiuzhou began walking toward Emperor Yan.
Emperor Yan stood up in total shock, his pupils shrinking to pinpricks.
“How are you still alive?”
He was supposed to be a dead man!
