Nie Qing asked curiously, "How do you know what's under the third row of my bookshelf?"
The European Emperor said, "I'm just spouting nonsense, but I feel like I hit the mark …"
Nie Qing was speechless.
Wei Yong took a few steps forward and placed his right hand on the hilt of his sword. He pulled out his sword. Both the European Emperor and Nie Qing thought to themselves, "My life is over."
"Father-in-law, please wait!"
The European Emperor raised his hand to stop him from approaching. His expression was full of anxiety.
She carefully swallowed her saliva and said, "Father-in-law, please don't do it. I'll cut my own throat. Please don't tire you out."
Nie Qing had said that even if she had to die, she couldn't die in the hands of Wei Yong. The European Emperor felt that it made sense.
Fan Chen looked at Wei Yong suspiciously and asked, "When did Nie Yang become Zishun's son-in-law?"
Wei Yong also said, "I'm also curious. How did he get to call you father-in-law?"
Wei Yong originally suspected that the person who left these strange words had something to do with Nie Qing, but after seeing the person in person, he felt like he was possessed.
Fan Chen asked again, "What's under the third row of your bookshelf?"
Wei Yong glanced at him coldly. Fan Chen felt an inexplicable chill. "You believe his nonsense?"
Fan Chen was speechless.
It wasn't that he wanted to believe it, but Wei Yong's reaction forced him to believe it. He was so curious that his heart was itching.
Wei Yong's gaze turned to the European Emperor. His cold and murderous eyes made the European Emperor and Nie Qing tremble.
"Bring her back for interrogation."
Fan Chen asked him, "Why don't we just kill her to prevent future trouble?"
Wei Yong replied without turning his head, "We can't kill her for now."
The European Emperor was tied up. Because the rope was very tight, she kept screaming in pain. Fan Chen lost his patience.
They escorted her to the tent. The European Emperor was violently pushed and fell to the ground. She was in so much pain that tears welled up in her eyes. She felt very wronged!
"Who are you?"
Wei Yong dismissed his attendants. Only he, the European Emperor, and Fan Chen were left.
"I've already called you father-in-law. Who do you think I am? Your son-in-law … "She was about to complain when Jiang Pengji sent her a message. She paused and continued," No, to be precise, this body belongs to your son-in-law. Can't you guys have some basic respect for mountain ghosts? I saved your son-in-law and the eldest son of your old master. Is this how you treat your savior? "
Wei Yong sneered. He was most annoyed by the talk of gods and ghosts.
Lucky Emperor said calmly, "I used to be a mountain ghost that cultivated in the mountains. Yesterday, I came out to play and found the demonic aura in the camp. Out of curiosity, I came to take a look. I didn't expect to witness such a good show. That man named Nie Yang gave your son-in-law an Appearance Changing Pill and used it to swap their appearances. Now, Nie Yang has openly taken the position of your son-in-law, and your son-in-law has taken the blame for him! "
"Do you have proof?"
Lucky Emperor said stubbornly, "I don't have any evidence, but you can kill me. I only hope that you can remain calm when you see your son-in-law die under your sword. I'm a spirit of the mountains, shapeless and formless. If this body dies, at most my soul will leave, but your son-in-law won't be so lucky. "
After listening for a while, Fan Chen was confused at first, then shocked.
"You're really a spirit?"
Lucky Emperor said according to Jiang Pengji's remote guidance, "You're really forgetful. Wasn't the Demon Empress before Zhongzhao was destroyed a wooden figure? Even an ambitious spirit can run to become an empress. Why can't a well-behaved mountain ghost come out and do good deeds? "
The news that the Demon Empress was a wooden puppet spread like wildfire among the people. Many people thought that it was just a rumor, but Wei Yong, Fan Chen, and the others had their own sources of information. The Demon Empress had indeed turned from a living person to a wooden puppet in front of everyone.
Lucky Emperor forced himself to calm down and continued to repeat Jiang Pengji's words.
"I'm really unlucky. It's so good to stay in the mountains and cultivate. It's rare for me to come out, but I encounter such a terrible thing. I'm even involved in the battle of the feudal lords. If I'm not careful, I'll be stained with endless karma." She looked like she had nothing to lose and said to Wei Yong fearlessly, "The Nie Yang you mentioned seems to be in cahoots with the demons of the evil path. I don't know where he got the Appearance Changing Pill. There's no proof. As long as the person dies, the effect of the Appearance Changing Pill will disappear. Do you want to test it? Anyway, I'm not afraid of death. Your son-in-law only has one life. "
Wei Yong's hand that was holding the sword was trembling. His heart was wavering.
"Did you leave those words just now?"
"I asked Nie Qing, and he passed it on to me. Since you don't know whether to believe him or not, why not give him a chance to defend himself? "
Wei Yong asked again, "Can he hear me?"
Lucky Emperor heaved a sigh of relief. The streamer was worth two people. It seemed that Wei Yong had been fooled.
"He can hear you. If you want to ask me anything, I can help you pass on the message."
"If what you said is true, I'll treat you as my benefactor. If there's any falsehood, you know what will happen to you. "
Lucky Emperor saw that Jiang Pengji had sent him another bullet screen. He was excited. "Great. It just so happens that we mountain ghosts don't like to be involved with mortals, especially people who are involved with the world's major powers. I saved Nie Qing's life. Remember to give me a gift. We're done. "
Wei Yong's face darkened. He asked a few questions.
For example, where did he become Nie Qing's disciple, what they talked about, what jokes Nie Liang made when he brought his son to be his disciple, what promises Nie Qing made when he married Wei Yong's eldest daughter … These were all private matters. Very few people knew about them. Even if Nie Yang and Nie Qing were close friends, it was impossible for him to know about these small matters.
To prevent accidents, Wei Yong purposely set up traps.
For example, he asked Nie Qing what books were placed on the bookshelf in the southwest corner of his study. In reality, there were only a few zithers and no bookshelves.
Nie Qing answered one by one, and Lucky Emperor passed on the information.
The more Wei Yong asked, the more frightened he became. Fan Chen, who was beside him, paled.
"Do you believe me now?" Lucky Emperor stabbed Wei Yong in the heart. "You almost killed your son-in-law."
Wei Yong used the tip of his sword to remove the thick rope that bound him. Lucky Emperor finally regained his freedom.
"I can only possess a mortal for 12 hours. After 12 hours, Nie Qing will regain control of the body."
Fan Chen asked, "Is there a way to remove the effects of the pill and let the young master regain his original appearance?"
Lucky Emperor shrugged. "There's no way. I don't know either."
"If you can help the young master return, I will never forget your great kindness."
How could Lucky Emperor know? When he was secretly anxious, Jiang Pengji pointed out the way for him. "Since you're begging, there's a way."
"What way?"
"You capture Nie Yang and give him to Liu Xi. Liu Xi's sword can slay all the demons in the world. That demon is currently possessing Nie Yang's body. " Lucky Emperor said, "As long as the demon helping Nie Yang is eliminated, the effects of the pill will naturally be removed. Of course, although I'm a mountain ghost, I've heard that mortals fight fiercely. Liu Xi is your mortal enemy. However, there are trade-offs in everything. Do you want Nie Yang to take over your nest and make Nie Qing unable to see the light for the rest of his life, or do you want to endure the humiliation and let Liu Xi help you eliminate the demon? You choose. "
Wei Yong trembled and almost lost his footing.
He said sarcastically, "Is Liu Xi really the chosen one? All the demons in the world will help him succeed? "
Lucky Emperor was about to reply, "Of course," when Jiang Pengji sent a bullet screen.
"It's hard to say. Whoever has the world in the end will be the chosen one." She laughed. "I've already said that it's not easy for mountain ghosts to cultivate. They can't casually affect the change of emperors in the mortal world. How can a small mountain ghost bear such a huge karma … Believe it or not, it's up to you."
Fan Chen said, "That's true. If mountain ghosts help Liu Xi, why would they save the young master?"
