The courtyard where Emperor Mo lived was not far from the underground palace. Ye Zhen had been here once before. The gate tower was as big as the palace and the courtyard he lived in was also very large and different from other courtyards.
"Isn't this where you live?" Ye Zhen frowned.
"Yes." Emperor Mo nodded gently.
Ye Zhen stood still and refused to move. "Why did you bring me to your place? You don't want me to live with you, do you? "
"Didn't you hear what the protector called you just now? I've already called you 'Madam'. Who will you live with if you don't live with me? "Emperor Mo asked matter-of-factly.
Ye Zhen suppressed her anger. "You and I are not a real husband and wife. Do we have to pretend to sleep in the same bed for others to see?"
"Well, it will be more realistic." Emperor Mo nodded matter-of-factly, apparently very interested in sleeping in the same bed.
Pretentious my ass! Ye Zhen sneered. "Don't even think about it. I will not live in the same room with you."
"Yao Yao, so what if we live in the same room? Will you offend me? "Emperor Mo asked seriously.
Ye Zhen was so angry that she almost laughed. "Who wants to offend you!"
"That's all right. Everyone calls you 'Madam'. What will others think if you live elsewhere?" Emperor Mo said lightly. "Don't make trouble. Go and rest."
Why did she become a troublemaker in his eyes?
"Emperor Mo, what do you mean by this?" Ye Zhen asked angrily.
"Nothing." Emperor Mo took her hand and walked in. "If Madam must sleep in the same bed, you can tell me. I will not refuse."
Ye Zhen gave him a blank look. "I can live here, but you can't live here."
"Well." Emperor Mo responded indifferently, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
"Let me go. Don't touch me so easily." Ye Zhen pulled out her hand, disgusted by his touch.
Emperor Mo looked back at her and said indifferently, "When we were in the underground palace, you took the initiative to hug me."
A blush appeared on Ye Zhen's cheeks. She was frightened by Ming Xi's appearance just now. For a moment, she was out of her wits and clung to him.
"I still have matters to attend to. Rest here for now. Once Mingxi passes the eighth level, I'll bring him to see you." Emperor Mo said in a low voice.
"Mingxi, he …" At the mention of her son, Ye Zhen immediately became nervous.
Emperor Mo said, "When I found him in the Flame Region, he had only cultivated to the fourth level. To be able to cultivate to the eighth level in such a short period of time, his talent is already unprecedented. You must believe in Mingxi."
"I gave birth to him. Of course I believe in him." Ye Rou snorted. She had always been very proud of Ming Xi.
"A fine breed. His father wasn't bad either," Emperor Mo said with a smile.
Everything was related to him! Ye Zhen chuckled, "I won't see you off, Lord Mo."
Emperor Mo raised his eyebrows and was about to leave when Ye Zhen stopped him again. "There is one more thing I want to ask you."
"What is it?" Emperor Mo asked.
"Not long after I arrived at the Xuantian Continent, you sent Bai Shisan to my side. How did you know I was here so quickly?" Ye Zhen didn't want to be angry with him about Bai Shisan. After all, Bai Shisan had gone to protect her. Given Emperor Mo's ability, it wasn't difficult for him to find out what had betrayed her. She was just curious how he could know she had come from the human continent so quickly.
Emperor Mo looked at her deeply. He knew she had appeared in the Xuantian Continent because her doppelganger had returned.
"You came back through the gap I opened. Of course I would know," Emperor Mo said indifferently.
"Then … will Ah Zhan in the human continent know that I am here?" She was most worried that Mo Rongzhan would think she and Mingxi were dead, but she couldn't even send him a message.
Her questions were more difficult to answer than the one before.
"He should know," Emperor Mo answered vaguely.
Ye Zhen breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good."
"Are you afraid that I will think you are dead in the human continent and marry another woman?" Emperor Mo raised his eyebrows.
"Ah Zhan won't." Ye Zhen snorted.
Of course he wouldn't! To him, liking a woman was a rare thing. He probably wouldn't touch any other woman besides her.
"Hurry up and leave." Ye Zhen waved her hand, as if Emperor Mo's presence was an eyesore.
Emperor Mo smiled faintly and left the room.
…
…
"Greetings, City Lord."
Emperor Mo came to the main hall. Apart from Shun Jun, the other three protectors were all here, and below them were the various hall masters.
"Shen Ying is back?" Emperor Mo looked at Shen Ying. "How's the investigation?"
"City Lord, this subordinate went to the Holy Sects and Taiyi Sect. Over the past few decades, there have been many people who have been possessed in the Tian Sha Mystic Realm. This subordinate caught more than ten of them and only found out after interrogating them. If we want to catch the people who have been possessed, we still need to rely on the people of the various sects. I'm afraid that … these people have high positions in the sects now." Shen Ying said solemnly.
If some of them became elders, it would be even more difficult to deal with.
Emperor Mo said indifferently, "Inform the heads of the various sects of this matter and let them clean up their own houses."
"City Lord, is this a conspiracy of the Flame Devil King?" Yin Siyue said, "The Flame Region has been so peaceful for so many years. Why have so many things happened recently? Could it be that … the Flame Devil King has returned and is manipulating everything in the dark?"
"If the Flame Devil King has returned, why didn't he return to the Flame Region?" Bai Shisan shook his head, feeling that Yin Siyue's theory was not valid. "City Lord, this subordinate remembers that there is another person in the Flame Region Demon Palace, and that is the High Priest."
Shen Ying nodded. "City Lord, after Qiu Hui returned, he was able to smoothly enter the Holy Sects as a new disciple. There seems to be someone helping him. This subordinate can't find out who this person is. At that time, he fell into the Ghost Region Mystic Realm. With his cultivation, it is not easy for him to come out."
Qiu Hui! Emperor Mo's eyes darkened slightly. "Did you find out where Qiu Hui is?"
"Flame Region." Shen Ying said.
Just as he guessed, after Qiu Hui learned to be a ghost cultivator and his identity was exposed, he had nowhere else to go except the Flame Region.
"City Lord, what should we do next?" Yin Siyue asked. "If the Flame Devil King really returns, he will definitely not let our Haotian City off."
Bai Shisan said, "If the Flame Devil King returns, he will not come to provoke our Haotian City again if he is smart."
Was the Flame Devil King not afraid of being killed by the City Lord again?
Emperor Mo listened to the discussion of his subordinates. He lifted his eyes indifferently. "The High Priest of the Demon Palace is in the Xuantian Continent. Secretly find out his identity."
As for the Flame Devil King …
According to his understanding of the previous Flame Devil Kings, every generation of Flame Devil King would experience rebirth. If the reborn body was not suitable to cultivate the Flame Devil's techniques, then they would forcefully take over the body. Now, it all depended on whether this generation's Flame Devil King was reborn in the Flame Region or the Xuantian Continent.
