The relationship between Torrigo and Great Master Huo Shi had always been a secret, and only her daughter-in-law Hai Hen was vaguely aware of it.

Just as the two of them were getting intimate, a familiar voice rang out, scaring them out of their wits.

The two of them could already tell that this person was sweating profusely.

The wide platform was covered in sweat, and its face was ashen as it staggered in from behind the tent. At this time, the situation was extremely awkward for Gu Qishao and Huo Shi. In their panic, they didn't even have time to put on their clothes.

Ever since he became seriously ill, he rarely came to Torrigo's place. After taking his medicine today, he felt that his mental state was quite good, so he wanted to take a look at his first wife, Torrigo. At that time, Torrigo and Huo Shi Lei had gone to meet the Holy Maiden of Karnas Lake together.

He asked the maid if she knew where Torrigo was, but she did not come back, so he went to rest behind the tent. When Torrigo returned, he didn't expect that the wide platform of sweat would suddenly appear in front of her tent while she was recuperating from her illness.

Torrigo and Huo Shi hurried over to the Great Khan and knelt down before him. They said in a low voice, "Great Khan, please forgive us. We were just muddle-headed for a moment."

Big Sweat kicked Torrigo aside and said to Huo Zhi, "You old thing, you're really bold. You actually dare to be rude to the Grand Concubine, and even lost so much trust in you. You gave me the title of Grand Mongol's Imperial Advisor, and now you dare to disappoint me. I'll kill you just like that."

Then, he pulled out the golden knife from his belt and slashed at Huo Shi.

Huo Techniques was a top-notch expert; he was only proficient in instant martial arts. How could he block them? Before the golden blade could land on Huo Techniques' body, it was sent flying by his protective divine art.

Seeing Huo Shou defend himself against this attack, Big Sweat grew even more angry, so he pounced on Huo Shou and pounced on him.

As a result, the two began to tussle. At first, Huo Wu didn't dare to resist, as she was in a position of authority. But later, she became a bit impatient and struck out with her palm at Big Sweat's chest.

Huo Shou's skill was so profound that with a muffled groan, he fell face-first onto the ground.

Torrigo, who was beside him, hurried forward to take a look. The sweat on the wide platform had all but disappeared. This frightened Torrigo to death. He grabbed Huo Shi and shouted in fear, "Huo Shi, you killed that big sweat!"

"Lower your voice. It would be troublesome if others were to hear!" Horseshoe covered Torrigo's mouth and said.

"You old thing, you're too bad. This Concubine and Big Khan are husband and wife. As the saying goes, 'A man and wife must die in broad daylight'. Now that you've killed Big Sweat, this Concubine will fight you to the death."

After he finished speaking, he picked up the golden blade covered in sweat and stabbed towards Huo Shi.

Huo Shou didn't dodge. He closed his eyes and watched as Torrigo's golden blade was about to stab into his chest.

However, unexpectedly, when the golden blade touched Huo Zhi's clothes, Torrigo let out a long sigh, and the golden blade in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.

Huo Zhi opened his eyes when he heard the noise. He sighed and held Torrigo's hand as he said, "Darling, I really didn't mean to kill Big Sweat. You know, I only wanted to get away from Big Sweat back then."

"Hmph, you don't know, Big Sweat is a chronic illness and his body is very weak. How can an inner force expert like you endure it?" Torrigo said angrily.

Huo Shi lowered his head, but didn't refute.

Seeing Huo Zhi remain silent, Torrigo continued, "Now that things have turned out this way, what do you think we should do?"

"This might be a good thing. Recently, our Mongolia's military and political forces have always been controlled by you and me. Big Khan himself rarely asked about this. Now that the Big Khan is gone, you can just replace him and become the true master of Mongolia." Huo Zhi said proudly.

"It's easier said than done," said Torrigo. "Since the founding of Mongolia, no woman has ever been a great Khan, and the Great Khan was always pushed by the Mongol noblemen at the Grand Meeting in Curulet. It's impossible for these people to nominate me as the Mongol Lord."

"That's easy." Huo Zhi said.

Torrigo asked, "This group of people are all the leaders of a region. They have their own troops, so they have their own territory. What should we do?"

"Don't forget, our 'Shadow Legion' has been collecting the privacy of these noble families. As long as we use this as a threat and promise them a great reward, they will support you." Huo Zhi said.

After Huo Zhi said this, he continued, "In fact, the most troubling thing is that when Big Khan was still alive, he wanted to make your son be the ruler of Mongolia. Now that you want to become the ruler of Mongolia, the prince will definitely not be happy with you.

"Sigh, although he is my son, you know about this noble reason. He has always been dissatisfied with this concubine, but how would he know that his abilities cannot be used as a big sweat? Even if this concubine were to recommend him now, I'm afraid that the great nobles of Mongolia would not support him. This noble reason simply cannot control the situation in Mongolia." Torrigo said.

"Indeed, if you become the master of Mongolia, you can train him well in the future and perhaps even inherit your position after a hundred years. If you let your highness become the king then I'm afraid that the Torres' sons will rise again. At that time, I'm afraid your family will be in big trouble." Huo Zhi said.

"If only this consort's son understood this consort as well as you, Huo Zhi, did, then that would be great."

Torrigo suddenly thought of something else. "Your palm has a strange poison on it. Wouldn't you be exposed if that group of people asked to examine Big Sweat's death?"

"That's old history, if it was me who practiced the Asura Yin Wind Art, then I would be able to see it. But after practicing the Nine Heavens Ten Earth Devil Art, my poison attack is now on people's bodies, and from the looks of it, it's impossible to see it. Even if someone stabbed their body with a silver needle, they wouldn't be afraid." Great Master Huo Zhi said confidently.

Torrigo let out a long sigh of relief and said, "That's good. If they find out that Big Sweat died from poison, it will be troublesome."

After the two discussed it, they started to pack up the items in the tent and carried the sweat back to the bed, pretending to be asleep.

After taking another careful examination, he didn't find any flaws, and came out. Afterwards, the two came out and discussed quietly for a while. Only after that did Huo Shu hurriedly leave.
