Su Yu walked in front, looking toward the northern starry sky. "Do you know what kind of people can live the longest?" he asked.
Fei Yunsheng pondered for a long time before affirming, "The strongest!"
Only those who were at the peak of strength could survive until the end.
But Su Yu shook his head. "No!"
Fei Yunsheng frowned. "Then what kind of people are they?"
Survival of the fittest, survival of the fittest. This was a world where only the strongest could stand at the pinnacle and survive until the end.
"They are the most formless people."
The most formless?
Fei Yunsheng did not understand what Su Yu was referring to.
"The strongest are the strongest, but they are the easiest to attack and the easiest to fall."
"On the other hand, the formless hide in the dark, accumulating their strength. When the world is about to fall, they will emerge and ascend to the throne."
At this point, how could Fei Yunsheng not understand?
Su Yu's intention was for Nanming City to continue hiding and bide its time, presenting itself as the weakest of the four cities.
And to use Dongming City as bait.
When the chaos was about to subside, Nanming City would appear again, defeating all the descendants of the rulers.
Hearing this, Fei Yunsheng could not help but stare at Su Yu, secretly shocked.
How simple was Su Yu's plan?
Anyone would have understood.
However, his vision, vision, and schemes that overlooked the overall situation caused others to feel as if they were facing an abyss and felt extremely uneasy.
From the start, Dongming City had been a chess piece in Su Yu's hands.
No matter how nice his words were to the Mindful Emperor's face, he actually had his own plans and plans.
"Emperor Mingxin is not a bad person. I feel guilty for using him like this." Su Yu sighed.
Fei Yunsheng did not agree, saying, "Mister Su is too kind, you filter too much!
With Emperor Mingxin's abilities, without the ruler's treasures, he would have been annihilated if he went against Ximing City or even Beiming City!
Mister Su, if you gave him four ruler's treasures, he would have had the right to fight!
Furthermore, Mister Su, you helped him get rid of the three great threats. Emperor Mingxin would be grateful to you. Even if he knew you were using him, he would be willing to follow your orders. "
Su Yu slowly nodded.
Just as he was about to enter the house to rest, the communication technique beside him activated.
As Su Yu scanned it, his expression changed slightly.
"Lord Su, it seems to be a happy occasion?" Fei Yunsheng asked.
Su Yu nodded. "Yes, it's a joyous occasion."
A letter from Yanran.
Shaohao agreed, then gave Su Yu the magical treasure that could speed up time by ten thousand times.
But the prerequisite was that he had to help him get rid of someone!
This person was the Waning Moon Empress' most trusted aide.
He and Yanran had the same identity!
A member of the Time Domain's Upper Palace branch!
His name was the Soul-summoning Scholar.
Fei Yunsheng swept his gaze across the book, wanting to read its contents. Su Yu put it away, seemingly unintentionally.
It was better not to let Fei Yunsheng know too much about some things.
Soul Summoning Scholar?
Su Yu thought to himself.
He remembered that when the Waning Moon Empress ambushed him, those messengers successfully disguised themselves as the Time Master's people.
The biggest reason was that there was no hourglass above their heads.
Besides, Su Yu could not think of any other way to forge such a realistic image.
On top of that, the Soul Summoning Scholar's name had the word 'soul' in it.
Su Yu had more or less guessed his identity.
He was a master of the Soul Path who had mastered the Soul Summoning Domain.
"Turning a thought into reality … Interesting," Su Yu muttered to himself.
"The next two days might not be peaceful. Keep an eye out," Su Yu said calmly.
Not peaceful?
Wen Jiu and the other two threats had been eradicated. How could there still be hidden dangers?
At least, Fei Yunsheng could not see it.
In the next few days, the alliance negotiations between Nanming City and Dongming City went smoothly.
Both sides were magnanimous and did not argue too much about the details.
"Mister Su, we can officially sign the alliance agreement tomorrow. I hope we can work well together!" Emperor Mingxin was in a good mood.
Su Yu nodded and cupped his fists in greeting.
"Rest early tonight, Emperor. Tomorrow is the alliance signing ceremony," Su Yu reminded him, patting his shoulder.
Emperor Mingxin laughed. "Don't worry, the ceremony will definitely satisfy you, Mister Su."
He was in a good mood.
Emperor Mingxin returned to his palace.
In the palace, a young lady with a gentle expression walked over with a smile. "Emperor, you are in a good mood today. Is it because the alliance signing went smoothly?"
Emperor Mingxin took off his cloak and smiled. "Haha, Rou 'er, bring me some wine. Let's drink to our hearts' content today."
The Empress was full of smiles. She had not seen the Emperor so happy in a long time.
For a long time, the Emperor had been frowning and working hard every day.
He had not been so relaxed for many years.
She immediately took out the Emperor's favorite Jade River Wine and said, "This was prepared by Zi Jun. Have a taste."
Emperor Mingxin's joyful expression turned to one of helplessness.
"How is Zi Jun now?" He chased Zi Jun away from his side, still a little worried.
The Empress said gently, "Don't blame yourself. Zi Jun knows she is at fault and does not blame you."
Emperor Mingxin nodded.
Zi Jun was the Empress' sister after all. He had promised to help her, but now he had chased her away.
Hearing that he reflected on his mistakes, the Empress was relieved.
As he thought to himself, he raised his cup and drank from it, "Wan Jiang Jade Clouds wine is my favorite wine. Zi Jun is very thoughtful."
The Empress smiled and poured a second cup for the Emperor.
However, just as she was about to pour the cup, she suddenly realized that the Emperor's hand that was holding the cup was trembling violently.
She looked up and let out a cry of surprise.
That was because the Mindful Heart Emperor's body was currently engulfed in dark green flames, burning his entire body.
Traces of pain condensed on the Mindful Emperor's face.
However, the Mindful Emperor sat there motionlessly, not reacting in the slightest.
"Emperor!" The Empress rushed forward and tried to put out the fire.
But a hand grabbed her shoulder.
"Sister, it's too late."
The Empress turned around and saw Zi Jun.
She looked at the Emperor with a complicated expression. There was regret, regret, and helplessness in her eyes.
"Zi Jun, put out the fire. Why are you pulling me?" The Empress tried to break free from Zi Jun's hand.
But Zi Jun held her hand tightly, not letting go.
The Empress finally realized that something was wrong. She stared at Zi Jun in disbelief. "You … You put something in the wine, right?"
Only two people could touch the Emperor's wine.
One was her, and the other was her sister.
The one who did it could only be her sister, Zi Jun.
"You are crazy! How could you poison the Emperor! "The Empress screamed.
