My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker! - Chapter 1502

Chapter 1502: Their Goal

Mo Lian was alarmed as he shot a streak of fire over. “Dodge quickly!”

No sooner said than done, this streak of fire hit the high priest’s wide-open mouth.

The high priest was unable to bite Duan Yue’s arm, and he stumbled backwards after getting hit by the streak of fire.

Duan Yue took this opportunity to stomp the high priest directly in the abdomen, kicking him out far away until he crashed to the ground on his butt.

“You disgusting thing!” Liang Qingqing’s mystic energy surged into a huge palm and abruptly landed on the high priest’s head with all its might.

A muffled *boom* was heard.

The high priest yowled from the beating, and his bloodshot eyes were shining with a vicious light.

“Don’t waste your breath on him. This thing has mutated.” Situ Yi, Wei Nanfeng, and the rest hastily launched their attacks, and their mystic energy bombarded the high priest’s head in a flurry.

It only took a moment for this person’s head to get bombarded until it dropped to the ground without a trace of life.

Seeing that the high priest was ganged up on and beaten to death by a group of youngsters!

The eldest heavenly maiden, who was veiled in a white cloth and had maintained an elegant composure, suddenly panicked.

The eldest heavenly maiden hastily ordered for the disciples of Siming Manor to shield her and protect her.

From how she was hiding behind the crowd, it looked like she was seeking a chance to flee.

But how were Mo Lian and company willing to let her leave like this?

Baili Xi and Wei Nanfeng launched a pincer attack from in front and behind her. Their swords were ensheathed with mystic energy, emitting two gleams as they each pierced through the fleeing eldest heavenly maiden’s legs.

The eldest heavenly maiden screamed and flopped onto the ground on her face.

When she turned around, she saw that Liang Qingqing and the rest had already mostly dealt with those small fry from the Siming Manor.

This formidable martial strength…

The eldest heavenly maiden’s pupils contracted. She instantly sensed an impending doom!

The group pressed near the eldest heavenly maiden, trapping her inside a tight encirclement, and she was resentful that there was nowhere left to flee to.

“You, don’t be reckless! Pre-Previously, what the hi-high priest had said is all true! I-If I-I also die by your hands, tho-those zombies will definitely sweep the Mo Kingdom capital and launch an offensive. None of you can hope to escape…”

“Ah!” Before she could finish her hullabaloo, Mo Lian’s Raven Moon skewered this woman’s shoulder.

“You’re talking too much nonsense.” Crown Prince Mo cast that woman a cold glance as he pulled the sword out from her shoulder. “This all is not what I want to hear.”

The eldest heavenly maiden instantly wilted. “Wh-What do you want to hear, Yo-Your Highness the Crown Prince! W-We really did not kidnap the crown prince consort!”

Situ Yi turned silent for several seconds before suddenly asking, “Previously, Siming Manor’s high priest had announced the news to seek the phoenix egg inside the Mystic Beast Forest in order to draw everyone there? You people had done it on purpose! Is that right?”

“Have-Have you not already guessed it? Wh-Why do you still need to ask?” The eldest heavenly maiden stammered.

“Why?” Situ Yi insisted on getting to the bottom of the matter as he stared straight at the eldest heavenly maiden with a sharp gaze. “Say it!”

The high priest had wanted to draw the eight great patrician families plus you sect disciples to the Mystic Beast Forest. His original intent was to release a pack of zombie rats to infect you all, and then control you all one by one.”

“Be-Because… the bodies of cultivators differ from normal people, particularly mystic cultivators. His Excellency the High Priest wanted to know if mystic cultivators would be able to mutate to a certain degree after utilizing drugs.”
