Even just through voice transmission, Shen Tang could tell that the High Priest’s voice had lost its former gentleness and was strangely cold and solemn.
He was speaking about Jia Lan.
He also specifically instructed Shen Tang to avoid Jia Lan in order to receive this oral decree.
It turned out that as early as seventeen years ago, when Lunus first met his son in the Cold Palace, he already sensed something was terribly wrong with the child.
Jia Lan’s heart had sprouted resentment and hostility, catalyzing a corrupt personality.
His hatred towards his mother and the outside world made him want to kill all those who had humiliated him.
At that time, Jia Lan was still young, but even though this vicious aura was only in its budding stage, it predicted a future trend of losing control.
Lunus didn’t want him to fall into the depths of extreme evil, so he suppressed the curse power within Jia Lan’s body.
Unfortunately, the personality could not be erased, only temporarily dormant, unknown when it might awaken.
This time, Lunus also vaguely sensed something wrong with Jia Lan, but the latter hid it too well, not leaking even a trace of corrupt aura.
Although he had suspicions, he couldn’t find any evidence, and so could only remind Shen Tang to pay attention to safety and seek his help if anything abnormal was discovered.
Sadly, it was ultimately too late, hidden dangers were too elusive to prevent, and the matter could not be remedied once it occurred.
"Your Majesty, it’s currently not advisable to return to the Imperial Palace; I will take you to the Priest Temple."
In just three short days, the Divine Hall had returned to its former state.
Lunus was in seclusion in a quiet room when he suddenly felt something amiss, opening his bright golden eyes, and the aura around him briefly appeared disordered.
He rose and went outside the hall, gazing towards a certain place and letting out a long sigh.
Then he changed out of his simple robe into a more splendid and formal Divine Robe, and with two attendants, personally went to the door to greet them, "I guessed you would come again... Is Your Majesty hurt?"
Seeing Jialouluo’s white garment stained with blood, the fabric over the left chest torn, Lunus displayed a barely discernible trace of panic across his originally calm demeanor.
He hurriedly stepped forward, taking Jialouluo from Shen Tang’s arms, with a hint of tension in his voice, "Your Majesty, there’s a High-level Healing Physician in the Divine Hall, I will take you there to heal."
Jialouluo weakly coughed, her face somewhat unnatural, but she also couldn’t be bothered much at this moment, not struggling free, "Thanks to Xiao Tang, she has already treated my wounds, so there’s no immediate threat to my life, just..."
Lunus’s slender fingers touched her wrist, sensing that the flow of her heart’s superpower was no longer as robust as before.
The loss of most of her superpower meant that both her heart and Crystal Core were severely damaged, making recovery nearly impossible.
