Chapter 354 Yao Girl Defeats Conspiracy, Glory Belongs to Herself
Standing at the highest point of my territory, gazing at this land that has been revitalized, I felt a deep sense of satisfaction.
However, my peace was short-lived, as a letter pierced my heart like a sharp sword.
"Xiao Yao, your success... has aroused the interest of some people." A cold smile appeared on my lips.
Sure enough, Princess Mingyue and Prime Minister Lin's jealousy and unease wouldn't keep me at ease for long.
Night fell, the moon hung like a hook, and I was carefully organizing the results of my territory management in my study.
Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps broke the silence of the night.
General Wu rushed to me, his expression tense: "Xiao Yao, something terrible has happened! Princess Mingyue and Prime Minister Lin have accused you of colluding with foreign enemies in court!"
A chill ran through me, and a coldness quickly spread throughout my body. They had finally made their move.
The next day, the atmosphere in the court was as frozen as ice, and everyone's gaze was like a knife piercing me.
Emperor Xuantian sat on the high dragon throne, his face ashen, as if he were about to explode at any moment.
Princess Mingyue and Prime Minister Lin stood to the side, their smug expressions evident.
Holding so-called "evidence," they loudly accused me of colluding with foreign enemies and attempting to overthrow the Immortal Realm.
"Xiao Yao, do you have anything else to say?" The voice of the Xuan Tian Emperor was like thunder, making my eardrums ache.
I looked up, meeting the suspicious gazes of the crowd, my heart filled with helplessness and anger.
Wen Chen stood to the side, his eyes as cold as ice, filled with disappointment.
My heart felt as if it had been struck a heavy blow, and I almost suffocated.
"Xiao Yao, what else do you have to say?" Princess Mingyue sneered, her voice lingering in my ears, making me feel nauseous.
Prime Minister Lin echoed him, his voice cold and ruthless, like the forked tongue of a venomous snake.
I felt isolated and helpless, as if an invisible barrier was blocking me from view.
However, I cannot fall. My territory, my immortal sect, and even the relationship between me and Wen Chen are all hanging by a thread at this moment.
I took a deep breath, trying to calm the turmoil in my heart.
I walked up to Princess Mingyue and Prime Minister Lin, coldly looking at the "evidence" in their hands.
Suddenly, I noticed a flaw—the ink on a forged letter was not yet dry, clearly indicating it was a hasty work.
"Do you think such a clumsy forgery can fool everyone?" My voice was firm and cold, like a sharp blade piercing through the fog.
I exposed their conspiracy in public, and every word struck them like a hammer blow.
Emperor Xuantian suddenly realized what was happening and looked at Princess Mingyue and Prime Minister Lin with a cold smile.
"What a accusation of colluding with foreign enemies! Your lies must end here!" With a single order from the Xuan Tian Emperor, Princess Mingyue and Prime Minister Lin were severely punished. They were stripped of their power, their reputations were ruined, and their fates were tragic.
The people in the court all looked at me with admiration, and I felt an unprecedented sense of respect and support.
Wen Chen walked towards me, his eyes filled with guilt and love: "Xiao Yao, I misunderstood you, I'm sorry."
As I looked at Wen Chen, the barrier in my heart began to slowly dissipate.
I know that after this series of power struggles, my position in the Immortal Realm is now unshakeable, and my relationship with Wen Chen will also usher in a new beginning.
However, the power struggles in the immortal realm never cease, and even more challenges await me in the future.
I clenched my fists, my heart as firm as iron, and embarked on a new journey.
"Xiao Yao, are you ready?" General Wu whispered in my ear, his voice filled with a mixture of anticipation and worry.
I smiled slightly, my eyes resolute: "I'm ready."
