As Ye Zhen had guessed, what happened in the auction house was quickly spread everywhere through the voice transmission talisman. It didn't take long for several versions of her identity to spread.
Some people said that she and Emperor Mo fell in love 500 years ago. She pretended to be dead, but in fact, she had been living in Haotian City for so many years. If she had not been mistaken as the daughter of the Ye family's first wife, her identity would not have been exposed.
There were even people who said that she was the reincarnation of the Flame Devil King. It was just that before she had awakened, she had fallen in love with Emperor Mo and had even given birth to a child. After she had awakened, she had killed the wet nurse of the Ye Family and impersonated the identity of the Third Miss of the Ye Family to go to the Ye Family and then to the Great Sage Sect. If not for the appearance of the real Miss of the Ye Family, it was possible that the Great Sage Sect would have already been destroyed by her.
In any case, all of them described Ye Zhen as a demon that was about to destroy the Xuantian Continent. All of a sudden, all of the martial artists were enraged. They all surged towards Haotian City, wanting to suppress Ye Zhen.
Bai Shisan, who had been sent out by Emperor Mo to handle some matters, had returned. He had gone to investigate the whereabouts of the High Priest of the Devil Palace. He had only found some information, and before he could find out more, he heard that Ye Rou was a Flame Devil King. He had immediately rushed back to Vast Heaven City.
Emperor Mo asked him to protect Ye Zhen.
"Madam." Bai Shisan bowed to Ye Zhen and stood in place obediently.
"Bai Shisan? Your City Lord sent you to spy on me? " Seeing Bai Shisan, Ye Zhen could probably guess why he was here. Mo Di must have asked him to come. After returning from the auction house, she hadn't seen Mo Di for several days, and she didn't want to see him.
"Madam, the City Lord asked me to protect you," Bai Shisan said.
Ye Zhen smiled, "Protect me? Looks like there are a lot of rumors out there. Why don't you tell me what they're saying? "
"No matter what the people outside say, you are still the Madam of Tianhao City," Bai Shisan said.
"You absolutely must not call me 'Madame' anymore. Right now, everyone thinks that I am the Flame Devil King and your City Lord is the god of the Xuantian Continent. With a wife like me, isn't he afraid of becoming enemies with the entire world?" Ye Zhen laughed mockingly. She was already tired of hearing them always call her 'Madame'.
Bai Shisan said, "The City Lord is not afraid of becoming enemies with the entire continent."
"…" Ye Zhen resisted the urge to roll her eyes and asked Bai Shisan coldly, "What is going on outside now? You said that I am a Flame Demon King who is about to destroy the entire Xuantian Continent? "
"A lot of people have come to Clear Sky City recently, but the city lord has already ordered the city to be closed," Bai Shisan said.
"Are they coming to kill me?" Ye Zhen sneered. Although she didn't want to care, she really couldn't pretend that nothing had happened when she was regarded as a big devil king.
Over the past few days, she had been constantly thinking back. From the moment she had arrived at the Xuantian Continent, it seemed as though someone had arranged her fate. Even her going to the Ye family … seemed to have been arranged. Now that she thought about it, the most suspicious person was Ye Jingshu.
She thought that Ye Jingshu didn't want to go back to the Ye family, so she used her as a substitute. Now that she thought about it, it didn't seem to be the case.
Ye Jingshu … Who was she?
"It's her!" Ye Zhen stood up, already forgetting that Bai Shisan was standing beside her. She muttered to herself, "It must be her. She wanted me to go to the Ye family. She definitely didn't expect that I would be able to enter the Great Sage Sect. From the moment she said that I killed Mute Niang, she wanted to slander me, frame me, ruin my reputation, and make everyone mistakenly think that I am a cruel and merciless person. Isn't it too much of a coincidence that someone found out that I was the Flame Demon King just after I killed someone?"
"It is indeed a coincidence." Emperor Mo's deep voice drifted over.
Ye Zhen suddenly looked back, a layer of frost appearing in her eyes.
Emperor Mo waved for Bai Shisan to withdraw and came to Ye Zhen. "Have you thought it through?"
"It's Ye Jingshu." Although Ye Zhen didn't want to see him, she knew that she needed Emperor Mo's help more at this time. "She made me go to the Ye family and made me a disciple of the Great Sage Sect. She put me on a high pedestal, then appeared and said that I was a fake … She is the Flame Demon King, but I don't understand. What does she want?"
"To take over your body," Emperor Mo said in a low voice.
Ye Zhen clenched her small hands. As expected!
"Don't worry. As long as you return to the human continent, she won't be able to harm you." Emperor Mo said.
"Her cultivation is lower than mine. Why should I be afraid of her?" Ye Zhen snorted. Don't let me see Ye Jingshu again!
Emperor Mo smiled helplessly. "Yaoyao, she has a High Priest. The Fiend King is already heavily injured and is no longer a threat, but … I haven't seen the High Priest of the Devil Palace either. He has already been in the Xuantian Continent for two hundred years. He might already be a Grand Elder or a Grand Elder of the sect. I don't want you to be in any danger."
"You're saying that Grand Elder Mo of the Supreme One Sect might be their High Priest?" Ye Zhen was shocked. How many people in the Xuantian Continent had been taken over by the Flame Demons? If the Flame Demon King really returned, would these people start a massacre in the Xuantian Continent?
"Even I only barely discovered the aura of the Devil Core on you recently. How could he, whose cultivation is lower than mine, be able to tell with a single glance?" Emperor Mo snorted coldly. "It's good for those people to come to Haotian City. They can find out who was taken over by the Flame Demons."
Ye Zhen glanced at him. "I have the Devil Core on me. In the eyes of others, I am also the Flame Demon King. Doesn't that mean I have a blood feud with you? Why do you still want to help me? "
"Why do you think I should help you?" Emperor Mo looked at her deeply. She actually asked such a question!
"I don't know." Ye Zhen looked away.
Emperor Mo held her face and forced her to face him. "I told you before, I am Mo Rongzhan."
"You are not!" Ye Zhen immediately retorted. She would never think of him as Mo Rongzhan.
"Yaoyao, you know in your heart that I am him. When you are with me, you can't help yourself. In your heart …" Emperor Mo's thin lips pressed against Ye Zhen's earlobe. Before he finished, Ye Zhen pushed him away forcefully.
"Shut up!" Ye Zhen shouted. She couldn't help herself. He was Emperor Mo. He and Mo Rongzhan were two different people!
Emperor Mo laughed lightly. He didn't want to expose her guilt. "Fine, I won't say anymore. Where is Mingxi?"
"I don't know." Ye Zhen's face was sullen. She also wanted to know where the kid went. He must have run away with Fire Phoenix.
"I'll go find him." Emperor Mo looked at her with a smile.
Ye Zhen turned around and entered the space. Her current situation was too dangerous. Before returning to the human world, she had to speed up her cultivation.
Emperor Mo's eyes flashed with a smile. "Where is Mingxi?"
"City Lord, the young master is on the other side of the city wall … fighting with the people of the Supreme One Sect and the Blood Spirit Sect." Bai Shisan whispered.
"Didn't I tell you to stop him from leaving?" Emperor Mo's voice turned cold.
Bai Shisan smiled bitterly and said helplessly, "City Lord, we can't beat the young master."
