Cultivator With Modern AI-Chapter 458 Zhu Yuhe’s Act

Shan Kingdom

In a room, three middle-aged women were gathered with two young women; they seemed to be busy talking and joking with each other.

However, they were startled by the sudden appearance of a woman, and one of the three middle-aged women asked her. "What are you doing here, Princess Zhou? Why did you suddenly come without notifying us?"

"I am no longer a princess, Cai Wenji." Zhou Xuan replied with a shake of her head; she then sighed softly and suppressed them with her aura.

Since Cai Wenji and the other two middle-aged women's cultivations were only at the 1st and 2nd Stage Heaven Origin realms, they were powerless before Zhou Xuan's aura, and they were pressed to the ground. They were completely shocked by her actions, and the two young women were terrified of her.

"Ugh! What... what are you doing, Zhou Xuan!?" Another middle-aged woman asked stammeringly.

"If you want to blame others, you can blame your husband, Ning Yu." Zhou Xuan then sealed their cultivation and bound them with ropes. 𝐟𝙧ee𝔀e𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝑒𝗹.c𝗼𝚖

The third middle-aged woman yelled at her angrily. "Quickly let us go, Zhou Xuan! Why are you doing this? What did we do wrong!?" 𝒇𝙧𝚎𝐞𝙬𝒆𝑏𝑛𝑜v𝚎𝒍.c𝑜m

"Unfortunately, since Shan Lui has conspired with the demon from the north, I can't let you guys go, Liao Yao." Zhou Xuan looked at them with pity.

"What!?" They cried out in shock at her answer.

Zhou Xuan then explained it to them. "About two months ago, the demons attacked Yuhe's banquet, and they were commanded by Shan Lui. Even so, Yuhe still gave him a chance to change, but he still didn't change and acted more and more outrageously. He and the demons had massacred several villages, and hundreds of people were killed because of their actions."

"But... but we didn't know anything about it, so we're innocent." One of the young women said, as she sobbed.

"Yuhe-"

"You don't need to explain anything to them anymore, Zhou Xuan." Mu Ruxue stated that as she landed in front of them, she was followed by several terrified young men, whom she then threw in front of the women. "I leave them to you; Yuhe has already arrived in this palace, and she is currently making her way to the throne room, so I will go to help her now."

"Alright." After Zhou Xuan nodded in agreement, Mu Ruxue instantly disappeared from their presence.

Before long, several of Zhu Yuhe's soldiers had already arrived in the room and brought the five women with them. Since they were wearing the robes of the Vermilion Empire, the soldiers of the Shan Kingdom didn't dare stop them.

--------------------------------------

Meanwhile, Zhu Yuhe rushed to the throne room of the Shan Palace, while Xia Ling and Ling Xiao secured the area around the throne room, and they also ordered their soldiers to capture any soldiers of the Shan Kingdom who tried to fight back.

"Shan Lui! You better admit defeat! I was kind enough to give you a chance to change, but you are still in cahoots with the demons from the northern continent, and you were also involved in the massacre of those villages." Zhu Yuhe said calmly, but she didn't take action against him immediately and waited for the demon to come out first.

"Hahaha! What evidence do you have that accuses me of conspiring with demons?" Shan Lui was still trying to calm down after all of Zhu Yuhe's accusations.

"First, the demons that attacked my banquet have already admitted that you were the one who asked them to kill me, and many eyewitnesses have listened to their confessions." Zhu Yuhe said slowly and unprovoked by him, then she smiled faintly, but there was a glimmer of coldness in her eyes.

Suddenly, she moved quickly, restricted Shan Lui's movement, and immediately touched his forehead. "The second reason is them."

Shan Lui's eyes widened after seeing the information that Zhu Yuhe conveyed straight into his mind; he broke out in cold sweat and his body couldn't stop shivering. He didn't expect that Zhu Yuhe had managed to get such clear information about his actions.

"Do you still want to deny your deeds? Because of your arrogance and greed, many villages were massacred cleanly by that demon." Zhu Yuhe spoke with a faint smile.

"Let's go!"

"Let us go!"

"Please let us go!"

They then looked towards the door of the throne room, and they saw Zhou Xuan and several soldiers carrying five women and a few young men, the women kept screaming and struggling to get away from the soldiers.

"Empress, they are the entire family of King Shan." While bowing, one of the soldiers said.

"Good." Zhu Yuhe nodded and returned her gaze to Shan Lui, who was already feeling helpless as his entire family was being held captive by them. "Shan Lui! For your actions in conspiring with the demons, and for the villagers who were massacred, I sentence you and your entire family to death."

"What!? E-empress Yuhe! We don't know anything about what our husbands did! So I beg you to please spare us." Cai Wenji, the Queen of Shan Kingdom, pleaded with Zhu Yuhe; Shan Lui's concubines and children also pleaded with her.

However, Zhu Yuhe just stared at them coldly.

"All of you can take them away and prepare for their public execution. Tomorrow morning, when the sun rises, execute them all." Zhu Yuhe remained steadfast in her decision, even more so when she recalled the corpses of the villagers as well as the fate of little Shen Huang, who was with Xia Tian.

Shan Lui's eyes had lost their radiance after hearing that, and he could only sit limply on the ground, speechless.

"Yes, Empresses!" The guards did as Zhu Yuhe ordered, and the queen, concubines, and children of Shan Lui continued to scream hysterically while pleading with her, but she ignored their screams.

"Sister Xuan, please bring this person-"

*boom*

Zhu Yuhe had not finished speaking yet, but she had already been attacked by someone, and she was blown backwards. Luckily, she had been on alert from the start, so she had already protected herself with her energy. Coupled with the formation embedded in the necklace given by Xia Tian, it left her completely unharmed.

"Hehe. It turns out that the new ruler of the southern continent is quite competent; you weren't even injured at all by my sneak attack." Mo Lui spoke while floating in the air with Shan Lui in his hands. "However, I can't let you take this chess piece of mine because he's still useful to us."

"At first, I thought I'd have to wait a little longer for you to show up, demon." But then a mocking grin appeared on Zhu Yuhe's face as she continued. "Unfortunately, neither you nor him will be able to leave this place, even if the Demon Emperor Mo Tian comes here."

Mo Lui was shocked when he heard Zhu Yuhe mention the name of the ruler of the demons; he didn't know how she came to know that name. That's because the Demon Emperor's identity has always been a secret among the demons themselves, and only his chosen confidants know. (A/N: You guys shouldn't be confused by this; Mo Tian is Sapphira's pseudonym; only the demons close to her know it, and they think that she is a man.)

"I didn't think at all that you knew the name of our ruler, but you underestimated me too much. If I want to take this person away, then no one will be able to stop me." Mo Lui mocked Zhu Yuhe. But suddenly, he felt a chilling breeze from behind him; it even sent chills down his spine.

"Is that so?" Mo Lui was surprised to hear a woman's cold voice from behind him, and he was about to turn his head, but his body was already starting to freeze. "A punny demon like you dares to be arrogant?"

'What the hell? Where did this woman come from? She is stronger than Zhu Yuhe, and she is even as strong as the demon emperor.' That was the last thought of Mo Lui before his body froze completely, and Shan Lui was already really like a person who lost his soul; his last hope to save himself and his family had disappeared.

Since Zhu Yuhe still needed him to punish Shan Lui and his family so that the public would not accuse her of acting as she pleased, like with Hong Chen's family, so Mu Ruxue did not destroy Mo Lui's body.

"Thank you, Ruxue. If it wasn't for you, then they would have managed to escape."

"It's okay; Tian asked me to help you after all. Since things are done here, I will return to the Ancient Sacred Realm."

After Mu Ruxue entered the space, Zhou Xuan immediately took the frozen Mo Lui and Shan Lui away from the throne room. Apart from that, Zhu Yuhe also ordered the officials of the Shan Kingdom to meet her in the throne room, as she needed to put things in order in the kingdom.

2. Otherworldly-Cultivator : There is no doubt about Chen Li's character, he adapts quickly, smart, gentle towards those closest to him, and sometimes wise. But he is also psychotic, vile, ruthless, and violent towards his enemies.
