In an instant, Pei Changying's heart skipped a beat.
This thing exerted such an overwhelming oppressive force on him!
A hint of shock flashed across Gu Sang's eyes as well. This scene was deeply etched into her heart: "The experiment has begun. This is the small missile that I told you about."
"Just one of these is enough to destroy half of the Forbidden City."
"Because its power is so immense, this test prototype has certainly had over half of its destructive force removed. Wherever it strikes will be like hell on earth."
Gu Sang's awe-filled words reached the ears of the ministers without omission.
All the ministers furrowed their brows and began discussing.
Obviously;
They could not even dare imagine such terrifying power existed, even though they had already witnessed many shocking weapons before. But a single missile that could destroy half a city...
Pei Changying immediately refuted: "No, that's absolutely impossible! Gu Sang, you must be deceiving me. There is no such thing in this world."
"I don't believe that the future world could have such a terrifying creation!"
Gu Sang was kept outside the safety zone. She signaled for the camera crew to follow her.
In the footage, two rows of special troops with solemn expressions could be seen standing beside two large vehicles. With a command to attention, the vehicles slowly came to a halt.
Afterwards.
The object on the vehicles slowly and steadily rose into a vertical position.
The commoners watched in shock as this weapon taller than a house, gaping their mouths wide open.
Commoner: "This, this, this is the weapon that the Immortal Being said could destroy half a city? Even if used just to smash things, it could probably kill a whole household!"
"I still don't quite believe that this thing can destroy half a city. Other than being large, it doesn't seem that special. At most, it might knock down a few shops."
"This thing called a missile, how is it used? Is it pushed over by hand? It's so big and heavy, no one could possibly lift it, right?"
As the ancients expressed their doubts, the professionals had already set the program.
Miles away was a vast, endless desert.
The desert without grass, trees, or people was the perfect place for an experiment.
This small-scale experiment was to test the power of this missile.
After confirming the test site was in a safe state.
The commander suddenly raised his head with a solemn expression. In front of all the ancient ministers and tens of thousands of commoners, he immediately issued a series of commands—
"Confirm target location is in a safe state for testing."
"Test personnel check all items."
"Test missile indicators normal."
"Positioning accurate and normal."
"Data recording initiated."
"Experiment begins, fire!!"
In an instant!
The only sound in their ears was a deafening boom.
A large plume of white smoke erupted from the ground, with dust also spreading.
Immediately after;
From the pupils of all the ancients, they saw an object like a shooting star, fired into the sky at a speed barely perceptible to the naked eye.
Two trails of thick white smoke followed in its wake.
When it reached halfway into the sky, the ancients watched in horror as the object... it actually turned!
Pei Changying and all the ministers felt their hearts leap into their throats. They widened their eyes, fixated unblinkingly on that small test missile.
"Whoosh--"
"Boom!"
"Rumble rumble!"
The missile charged straight towards the uninhabited desert area a hundred kilometers away. The massive explosion caused the area within a ten-mile radius to instantly collapse!
Sand and stones ran rampant, and dense flames annihilated everything nearby.
The sound shook heaven and earth.
The aftershock caused the ground beneath Gu Sang's feet to tremble! In that moment, it seemed as if the entire world was quaking!
Silence!
A deathly silence fell over the scene.
Witnessing the terrifying power of the small missile, the ancients fell to the ground in shock, their faces filled with horror and fear.
They believed it now!
They finally believed it!
"I, I finally understand how to use this. Just by shouting, this thing can automatically charge towards the target and destroy it."
"Too terrifying, too terrifying! How could such a horrific thing exist? Under this small missile, all life would be annihilated, with no chance of escape."
"This is essentially a doomsday weapon. How could mere flesh and blood withstand it!"
"No wonder there are no wars in the era the Lady is from. How could there be war? With just a few of these missiles, all the people and the entire nation would be destroyed."
Pei Changying's face drained of all color.
He too was drenched in cold sweat. Had he not been sitting on the dragon throne, he might have weakened and fallen to his knees when the missile hit.
Looking at all the officials and ministers, each and every one of them was struck speechless by the horror.
What is true power?
Witnessing an area of several miles leveled by a small test missile—that is true power!
If...
If he could have a few of these, the entire world would kneel at his feet!
The chill down his spine made Pei Changying feel utterly disgraced, but the experiment's power also ignited his ambition, heating his body.
"Gu Sang."
Pei Changying took a deep breath and looked at Gu Sang with a complex gaze: "Why did your country create weapons capable of destroying humanity? Such weapons defy the heavens and will invite divine punishment."
Gu Sang mocked: "Unable to create them yourselves, so you accuse these of defying heaven?"
"Pei Changying, your talent for accusations grows by the day. Now you even need to drag the heavens in to take the blame for you."
"This is only a small missile. The large ones could not be tested, as such weapons are a necessity for every major power. They may not be used, but they must be possessed."
Yes.
He must possess them!
Pei Changying pursed his lips, his expression changing as a trace of tender affection revealed itself in his eyes. He called out softly: "Sang Sang, are you still angry at me?"
Gu Sang: ??
"Are you angry that I did not fulfill my promise to make you the empress?"
Gu Sang: .......
"I know I was wrong. So, I will apologize to you. Previously, when I made Qing Rou the empress, it was not because I loved her deeply, but because I wanted to make you jealous."
"In truth, you have always been in my heart. If you return, I will give you the empress position."
"And the promise of a lifetime together, just the two of us—I still intend to keep it. From now on, I will never favor another woman. Only you and I will be together, forever."
"How about it?"
Pei Changying's eyes revealed a hint of affection and reluctance, but mostly ambition and desire.
See how much he loved her? He was even offering her the empress position.
Had it not been for his desire for the missiles, he would never have made such a promise.
Because Pei Changying understood profoundly that Gu Sang could not be like the other concubines in the inner palace, with eyes only for her husband and competing for his favor, forever under his control!
"What the hell are you thinking, idiot." Gu Sang was originally a woman of great quality.
But she still couldn't help but spit at the screen, shutting off the livestream with utter disgust, not wanting to say another word.
Lunatic!
Not a single word from an abusive man can be believed.
When he doesn't need her, he drags her by the hair and calls her a shameless woman, but when he needs her, he calls her Sang Sang with such affection. Too late!
Too late!
This "love", even a dog wouldn't want!
