Long Yin came to Ye Shuiyao's study alone without any prior notice. As soon as he pushed open the door, he felt a wave of cold air wash over him. As expected, Ye Shuiyao was sitting in the study. Ever since she confirmed the news about Ye Wuchen yesterday, she had not left her room. She did not sleep at all, did not drink or cry, and spent most of her time sitting in a daze.
She did not turn around when she saw Long Yin's sudden arrival. Oculum, who was beside her, glanced sideways at him before looking away. It was as if she did not care about him at all.
Long Yin was not used to the atmosphere here, so he said, "Ye Shuiyao, it's me."
Ye Shuiyao turned around and looked at him expressionlessly. She did not respond nor did she bow. Her gaze was as calm as if she was looking at a stranger.
Long Yin did not mind. He sighed and said, "I already know everything, and I've already met your father and grandfather. I've come personally this time because I have something to tell you." He paused, but he did not wait for Ye Shuiyao's reaction. He knew that it was useless to say more, so he went straight to the point. "I'll be frank with you about this. After that day, the Emperor of Dafeng Country, Feng Lie, was extremely furious. He wanted to immediately send troops to take down Tianlong, but he was stopped by Crown Prince Feng Ling. Feng Ling sent a message to me. If you're willing to return to Dafeng and get married, they'll let bygones be bygones and the five-year peace treaty will remain. I want to hear your opinion. "
Ye Shuiyao's expression turned cold in an instant, and she said in a voice full of hatred, "You … You actually want me to marry the murderer who killed Little Chen!"
Long Yin knew that she would have such a reaction, so he said helplessly, "My hatred towards Dafeng Country is no less than anyone else, but my helplessness is also greater than any of you. How could I not know that if this marriage were to go through, it would be a disgrace to Tenryū Province? I also know the hatred of your Yeh family. But do you know what it means to endure humiliation for the greater good? Now, all the officials in the imperial court know that if war really breaks out, our Sky Dragon Empire will face the danger of being destroyed. The only one who can solve this problem is you. We hope that you can shoulder the humiliation of a single person and save the common people. The history of the Heavenly Dragon Empire will remember your name forever! You've already agreed to it once, so you must know the pros and cons. The men and women of the Yeh family are all loyal to the country. Are you willing to agree to it a second time? "
Ye Shuiyao listened to him with a cold face. When he finished, she said coldly, "What does the destruction of Tenryū Province have to do with me? What does the destruction of your Long family have to do with me? Get lost!"
This rebuke caused Long Yin's face to darken. He was the Emperor of Tenryū Province and no one dared to be so disrespectful to him. He shouted in a heavy tone, "Impudent!"
As soon as his voice fell and the Emperor's Might was released, Oculum suddenly raised his head and stared at him. The air in the room seemed to freeze in an instant. Long Yin felt as if he was being stared at by a venomous snake. A formless fear grew in his heart and the coldness spread, causing his heart to tremble violently.
At this moment, the door to the room was suddenly pushed open. Two old figures flew in and stood beside Long Yin. They were two of the three great consecrators by his side. Elder Li immediately bowed and said, "Your Majesty, there's an urgent report from the palace asking for Your Majesty to return immediately." Then, he discreetly tugged at Long Yin. Long Yin understood and looked at Oculum in fear before turning to leave.
On the way back to the palace, the fear in Long Yin's heart had not dissipated. The moment he was stared at by Oculum, he felt as if a knife was placed on his neck and his life would be taken away if he moved slightly. He asked with lingering fear, "That person was the little girl that Ye Wuchen picked up before. Who is she?"
"Your Majesty also saw that she's not ordinary?" A voice asked.
"That's right. Although we don't know any martial arts, that aura just now must have been released by an expert. I didn't think that this little girl who looked like she was only in her teens would be so terrifying. Elder Li, why did you want us to leave just now? Were you not confident that you could restrain her? Humph! Ye Shuiyao actually dared to be so disrespectful to us. How unreasonable! "Thinking of Ye Shuiyao's" scram ", his heart was filled with anger. In all these years, no one had ever spoken to him like that.
"It's not that I'm not confident, but … … even if there were ten or twenty of me fighting together, we still wouldn't be her match."
"What!?" Long Yin stopped in his tracks. In his shock, he frowned and asked, "Is this … … true?"
"How could this old man dare to deceive Your Majesty."
"Elder Li is right. If she wanted to kill us, it would only take her less than three moves. If she wanted to harm Your Majesty … … even if there were a hundred of us, we wouldn't be able to stop her." Another old voice said.
Long Yin's scalp went numb. Thinking of that girl's terrifying eyes, his heart trembled even more. "This … … How could this be … …"
"Your Majesty, there are many things in this world that can't be judged by common sense. For example, the Yeh family's Wuchen killed the God of War and the Wind God's Three Elders, who were on par with us. Then, when he was exhausted, he beheaded an army of ten thousand. This is like a myth, but it's the truth."
Long Yin was stunned for a long time. He let out a long sigh and said, "That's right … … We never thought that Ye Wuchen had hidden his strength so deeply. What he did in the Great Wind Nation can really be said to be earth-shattering. "
When Long Yin received the news yesterday, the shock in his heart could be described as indescribable. Now that he thought about it, he felt a lingering fear in his heart. He had been scheming to kill Ye Wuchen. If he found out one day, with his hidden strength that could even kill the God of War, it would be a piece of cake for him to destroy the Long family. But fortunately, he died. He didn't die in his own scheme, but in the Great Wind Nation. He couldn't help but sigh that the Long family was really blessed by the heavens. Not only him, but the girl in black next to him was also so shockingly terrifying. She couldn't be judged by common sense at all. Long Yin suddenly realized that he, who always thought that he was in control of everything, actually only understood the surface of Ye Wuchen. If he made a move one day, he would be unable to defend himself.
"It's no wonder that Mercenary Tao would die in his hands. What Divine Equipment? It's all nonsense. How did he reach this level at such a young age? Is he really possessed by the legendary Demon God? "
Long Yin misunderstood Ye Wuchen this time. At that time, he didn't have the ability to kill Tao Baibai, even if he reached the third level of the Chaos Tactics. He relied on Oculum to kill Tao Baibai, and he relied on the Heaven Extinguishing Fire Dragon Fruit and the Star Slashing Sword to kill Feng Zhaoyang.
"We are more shocked than Your Majesty about this, and we want to know more. But the only thing we can be sure of is … Your Majesty, you must not provoke that girl just now, you must not! Just now, she already had the intention to kill. If we were a little late, Your Majesty would already be … "
Long Yin, "…"
As soon as Long Yin returned to the palace, a young eunuch hurriedly reported, "Your Majesty, I heard from the servants of the Flying Phoenix Palace that Flying Phoenix hasn't eaten anything since yesterday. Your Majesty, do you want to …"
With a heavy heart, Long Yin waved his hand, "Get someone to cook for her whatever she wants to eat. You can leave … Wait, call Lin Kuang over."
Not long after, Lin Kuang walked over quickly and bowed, "Your Majesty, why did you summon this old official?"
"Do you know about Ye Wuchen?" Long Yin asked.
"I do." Now that the entire Tianchen Continent was talking about it, it was hard for him not to know.
"What do you think?"
"This …" Lin Kuang paused and said carefully, "I didn't expect him to hide so deeply. He's actually so terrifying."
He let out the same sigh as Long Yin. Long Yin didn't ask anymore and said with a frown, "No matter how terrifying he is, he's dead now. There's no need to focus on him. Ye Wuchen's death is a great opportunity for me and the Lin family. Ye Nu is old now and doesn't want to be involved in politics anymore. This isn't a good thing, but it's not a bad thing either. With his character, he'll definitely stand up on his own accord on the day of the war. What you need to do now is to protect the Hua family. Do you understand? "
Lin Kuang immediately understood, "This old official understands!"
…
…
The snow only stopped in the afternoon. Xiao Lu, whose eyes were red and swollen from crying, quietly delivered the food and left quietly. Ye Shuiyao didn't eat for the whole day. Her body was cold and her heart was even colder. She always thought that it was her escape that caused Ye Wuchen to chase her to the Dafeng Nation and caused his death.
Oculum brought the steaming hot food in front of her and looked at her with watery eyes. She shook her head and said desolately, "I'm not hungry. You eat."
Oculum shook her head as well. She raised the food in the air with her hand but she waited for a long time. Ye Shuiyao was still sitting there in a daze. Oculum put down the food and walked over to pick up a pen. She took out a piece of paper and scribbled on it clumsily. To her, writing was much more difficult than killing.
When she was done, she placed the paper in front of Ye Shuiyao's eyes. On it, there were six crooked words, "If you don't eat, he'll be worried."
The tears that Ye Shuiyao had been holding back for a long time finally gushed out. She covered her mouth and nodded strenuously. Then, she picked up the chopsticks.
Oculum had already regarded Ye Shuiyao as his support and Oculum was also Ye Shuiyao's little support and protective umbrella. He was the only person she could talk to. The relationship between them was established because of one person. Because one was the elder sister he loved and the other was the younger sister he brought with him wherever he went.
Celestial Dragon City's Hua family.
"My dear daughter, I'm begging you. Just eat a little. If you don't eat and drink, your body will collapse!" Hua Zhentian pleaded and comforted her. He almost knelt down in front of his daughter. Since he received the news of Ye Wuchen's death yesterday, he was stunned for a long time. He wanted to hide this matter from Hua Shuirou but the shock caused by this matter was too great. The whole Tianchen Continent was talking about it and it was impossible to hide it. Soon, Hua Shuirou found out about it. When she first heard it, she fainted without saying a word. Hua Zhentian was so scared that he completely panicked.
Hua Zhentian had been trying to comfort her since yesterday. He tried his best to comfort her but Hua Shuirou just sat on the bed in a daze. Her eyes were dull and she didn't say a word. It was as if her soul had left her body. Hua Zhentian had been talking to her for so long, but she didn't even bat an eyelid.
Hua Zhentian let out a long sigh and hit his head hard. He knew his daughter too well. Ye Wuchen's death was a huge blow to her, and her soul had followed him to the afterlife.
"If you don't eat, your father will starve with you. If you don't want your father to starve to death, then eat a little, okay?" Hua Zhentian pleaded. From yesterday until today, Hua Shuirou didn't eat or drink a single drop of water. He didn't say a word or shed a single tear. He just sat there … He almost knelt down in front of his daughter.
"Sigh … even if you don't want to eat, it'll be good if you cry. Your father's heart … is so anxious." Hua Zhentian hammered his heart hard. It was as if there was a big stone stuffed in it. It was heavy and uncomfortable.
Hua Shuirou, "…"
If Hua Shuirou cried for a few days and nights and was devastated, Hua Zhentian wouldn't be so worried and would feel better. But she was in a daze and made him, her father, feel terrible and afraid. He let out a long sigh and walked out. He gently closed the door to his daughter's room.
