Chapter 1097: Killing Is Nothing More Than Bowing to the Ground

An Mingji naturally took her hand, "A Jin, maybe there’s no need to go to the Chen Palace."

He looked at the scene in front of him, the corner of his mouth curved into a playful smile, carrying a bit of inexplicable flavor, as if quite satisfied with this.

If Yu Shuo’s background is not simple, does that mean Gu Jin doesn’t need to take action, and they have other arrangements themselves.

In his heart, he ultimately did not want Gu Jin to be in a dangerous place.

"I still have to go."

Gu Jin had no intention of changing her mind.

Today, her visit to the Chen Palace was in the capacity of Yu Shuo’s mentor.

Even if the apprentice’s background is complex, or if their forces have other arrangements, it has nothing to do with what she has to do.

An Mingji heard this and gently furrowed his brows.

Gu Jin seemed not to notice and immediately transmitted a message to the Wanqi Family Head, asking for the arrangements to enter the Chen Palace as soon as possible.

If delayed further, it would be dark.

The message reached the Wanqi Family Head’s ears, and his expression slightly stunned, quickly turning around.

Faced with Gu Jin’s resolute expression, he lightly nodded.

He walked over to the Wanqi Immortal who was reminiscing with Elder Madam Qiu, whispered a few words, and then turned to leave.

An Mingji watched all this happen, his curved lips dropped, and he turned to look at Gu Jin, "Do you really have to go?"

Gu Jin tilted her head, smiling with her eyes at An Mingji’s angular profile, this handsome face unparalleled in beauty, with deep contours, exquisite and flawless.

No matter how she looked, she couldn’t get enough of it; it was truly a feast for the eyes.

However, An Mingji’s face looked unhappy, quite noticeable.

Ignoring his displeased face, Gu Jin raised her hand and pinched his solemn face, chuckling softly, "Wait for me obediently, I will definitely return safely."

An Mingji held her hand, gently playing with her fingers.

He slowly lowered his gaze, hiding the ruthlessness and killing intent in his eyes.

"A Jin, why bother with this trouble, if you don’t like them, I will send people to take care of them, ensuring they never see tomorrow’s sun."

His voice was pleasing yet low, but his words sent chills down one’s spine.

The ’them’ he referred to could only be the master of the Chen Palace, and Han Yixuan.

If others overheard this conversation, it would undoubtedly cause chaos.

The master of the Chen Palace, who is the ruler of the land, plays an essential role in stabilizing the various forces in Beijing.

If he dies, various forces would be ready to move, and by then, Beijing is not merely a simple reshuffle but would certainly turn into a bloodbath.

From ancient times to the present, the Royal Family has been an essential presence in stabilizing various forces.

The smile on Gu Jin’s face disappeared, and she slightly frowned, "I never thought of killing them, killing them is not worth it for me."

"Then why are you going to the Chen Palace?"

An Mingji knew she possessed the Ancient Heaven-defying Skill’s space inheritance and also understood that carrying the burden of taking a life would have repercussions.

Although the repercussion of one life is not feared by A Jin.

But, unless absolutely necessary, she never takes a life.

Gu Jin took out two red elixirs from her space, letting An Mingji see them clearly, "None of the Royal Family members are clean, their retribution will surely come, I will let them taste the consequences they have sown in advance.

Killing is no more than turning the head to the ground, sometimes living with daily suffering and torment is the essence of torturing someone the most.

Moreover, they cannot die now, especially the one in power; if he dies, the ripple effect would prompt the major families in Beijing, various forces in the Cabinet, and even those foreign forces lurking in the shadows to seize the opportunity, causing harm ultimately to the innocent commoners."
