"Are these … all real?" Long Huang 'er flipped through them one by one, then closed them up with a look of shock on her face. She had already started to get involved in politics. She knew that if she could memorize the contents, it would be easy for her to manipulate the officials. The most direct thing was that it recorded everyone's character weaknesses and weaknesses, and there was more than one weakness that pointed directly at their vital points.
"Don't worry, none of them are fake." Ye Wuchen smiled mysteriously.
"Oh my god, you're amazing. I didn't ask that because I doubted you, I was just too surprised. " Long Huang 'er first let out a gasp of surprise before sticking out her tongue. She was slightly ashamed of her previous doubts towards him.
Ye Wuchen smiled and shook his head, then said seriously, "Phoenix, no matter what, don't forget the word 'human heart'." Then, his expression softened, and he said lovingly, "I know, you must not be used to suddenly becoming an Empress. If you really don't want to be an Empress …"
"I won't, I won't." Long Huang 'er shook her head heavily. She stood up and straightened her back, gradually beginning to reveal the expression and aura that an Emperor should have. She said without emotion, "Because you said that this matter is to help you, to help many, many people. So, I will definitely become the most powerful and outstanding female Empress. I, Long Huang 'er, will be a man of my word. I won't be like you, lying to me over and over again … Hmph. "
Ye Wuchen: "…"
"Sister Phoenix, Brother didn't do it on purpose." Ningxue defended Ye Wuchen in a small voice.
When he returned to the Yeh family, Ye Wuchen smelled something strange as soon as he entered the door. He stopped in his tracks and thought for a moment. Then, a faint smile appeared on his lips. That smile slowly turned cold. It was about time.

This was a remote town in the southeast of Tenryū Province. At the foot of the mountain behind the town, there was a large courtyard. Although the courtyard was not far from the town, no one from the town had ever been there. It was rumored that it was owned by a super-rich person in Fiery Dragon City. Every year, during the hottest time of the year, they would come here to avoid the summer heat. It was quiet all year round, and there were very few sounds coming out. At the same time, there were several burly men dressed as bodyguards guarding the entrance of the courtyard at all times, not allowing anyone to approach. Most of the residents in the small town were simple and honest, and no one was willing to cause trouble. After a long time, other than glancing at it occasionally when they passed by, the villagers basically ignored its existence.
Few people knew that this was a branch set up by Nanhuangzong, and it was also the one closest to the core area. After Shui Yunlan and Shui Xuanfeng escaped death, this place became their place of recuperation. After Shui Yunlan finally recovered, Nanhuangzong's internal department had sent out an urgent message to all corners of the Tianchen Continent, which had not been sent for many years.
Today was the day of the gathering. Nanhuangzong had suffered an unprecedented disaster, and its reputation and influence had fallen to the lowest point in its history. It was extremely fortunate that the sect master was still alive. It was an urgent matter to gather all the leaders to discuss the next step.
However, there were not many people in the town today, and there were not many unfamiliar faces. None of the people in the town noticed that the large courtyard behind them was filled with people of all shapes and sizes.
The door to the courtyard was tightly shut, and four exceptionally burly men were guarding the door lazily as usual. There was nothing out of the ordinary about them. In the courtyard, all the people standing in the hall had grim expressions. Their hearts felt heavy, as if there was a heavy rock weighing down on them.
Shui Yunlan was already sitting in the middle of the hall. He did not seem weak at all, but there was a sliver of dispiritedness that could not be completely concealed on his face. Although he tried his best to appear calm and calm the hearts of the people in the sect, the deep sense of defeat, especially the wavering of his beliefs, had caused him to spend the past few days in a state of agitation.
To his right sat the pale-faced Shui Xuanfeng. Although he did not seem to be injured on the surface, his pale complexion and weak aura proved that the rumor that he had lost his Water Jade Technique was true. Although he had become a cripple, his status in the sect had not changed because of that.
"Sect master, everyone is here," a man dressed like a merchant walked up to Shui Yunlan and said softly.
Shui Yunlan nodded and stood up. His actions immediately attracted everyone's attention. Everyone's gazes gathered on him, waiting for him to speak.
However, just as Shui Yunlan's lips moved slightly, a strange, hoarse voice suddenly sounded before him, "The true sect master of your Nanhuangzong has not arrived yet. How can you say that everyone is here …"
The hoarse voice caused the expressions of everyone in the hall to change. The leaders of Nanhuangzong, who had been urgently recruited from all over the Tianchen continent, were gathered here. Every single one of them held a certain amount of authority. In total, there were more than a thousand of them. Furthermore, every single one of them was an extraordinary expert. It could be said without any exaggeration that this was the strongest force that Nanhuangzong could gather at the moment. However, with so many experts of Nanhuangzong present, not a single one of them had sensed his presence before the voice rang out! They did not know how he knew about this place, how he had barged in, or how long he had been hiding here.
Shui Yunlan's expression darkened. He swung his right fist towards the source of the voice, and a ray of dark blue light shot out. With a "boom", a round hole appeared on the roof of the hall. Light spilled out from it. However, the voice rang out from another direction, "Hehehehe, this place can be considered as the foundation of your Nanhuangzong. The true sect master has not said anything yet. Since when did you, a fake sect master, have the right to destroy it?"
"Who is it? Pretending to be mysterious!!"
With a loud roar, two elders in their sixties flew up at the same time and rushed towards the source of the voice. The two of them were Shui ManLou and Shui ManCheng, and they were the Xuan and Huang Elders of Nanhuangzong. They were the other two experts of the Deity Realm in Nanhuangzong. The two of them did not even make a move. Just the momentum of their charge was enough to create a huge hole in the ceiling. However, they still could not sense anyone's presence. The voice clearly came from that position, and if he wanted to dodge, there would definitely be a small movement. However, they still could not sense anything.
A strong sense of uneasiness rose in the hearts of the people of Nanhuangzong. They had just suffered a calamity and now, they met such a mysterious person in their secret gathering … Being mysterious wasn't much, but to be able to be so 'mysterious' in front of so many experts of Nanhuangzong, his strength had undoubtedly reached a terrifying level. The appearance of this person caused them to be startled, and they could not help but wonder if this person was the person who destroyed the core of the Deity Realm by himself. Even though that person had disappeared after the core of Nanhuangzong was destroyed, it did not mean that he would not appear again.
As for Shui Yunlan, when he heard the voice mention the words' fake Sect Leader Nanhuang ', it was as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water over his head in the cold winter. If Nanhuangzong had not met with such a calamity, he would have laughed at the person who said those words without batting an eyelid. However, at this moment, he muttered to himself in a daze, "What should come, has finally come?"
"Don't be afraid, this emperor is not that god from the Godly Mainland, but a person like all of you. Today, this emperor is here to give you, Nanhuangzong, a heavenly gift. "
This time, the voice was not as faint as before, but very real. Everyone turned their heads and were shocked to see that in the upper right corner of the hall, a silvery figure with a silver mask had appeared out of nowhere. A name appeared in everyone's hearts the moment they saw him.
"Evil Emperor!"
Nearly a hundred auras of different strengths locked onto the Evil Emperor, and even more gazes were focused on him. As long as he made the slightest movement, the experts of Nanhuangzong would follow.
The Evil Emperor's appearance was out of Shui Yunlan's expectations. He frowned, and after his expression changed slightly, he stood up and raised his hand, gesturing for the people to not move. He raised his head and said, "Heh, I was wondering which expert had such divine powers, so it's the emperor of the Evil Sect who has personally come. If you don't mind, why don't we sit down and have a cup of tea together? "
"Heh, mind? In this world, who would dare to mind you, Nanhuangzong? However, even though you're here, there's no need to drink this tea. Because the main character today is not this emperor, but … "
Bang!
The Evil Emperor did not move, but the ceiling above his head suddenly cracked, and three figures leaped down from it, landing on the floor of the hall. The moment they landed, their gazes fell on Shui Yunlan at the same time. Six different gazes, with different degrees of hatred.
Another three people suddenly barged in. Previously, they did not notice the existence of these three people. However, there was no commotion in the hall because of this. Instead, it was terrifyingly quiet. All the gazes fell on the person in the middle of the three people. One of them was Princess Shui Mengchan, the other was the son of the Sect Leader, Shui Wuque … And the person in the middle, other than the clothes he was wearing, was exactly the same as the Sect Leader. And from the eyes that looked at the Sect Leader, everyone could clearly feel the deep hatred hidden in them. It was a kind of heart piercing hatred that had already been carved deep into his bones, a hatred that could never be erased.
Shui Yunlan's gaze darkened, and he stared at Shui Yuntian, who had suddenly appeared in front of him. In the deathly silence, he finally opened his mouth, "Who are you?"
Shui Yuntian's expression was a hundred times darker than his. He gritted his teeth, and said with an incomparably deep voice, "Shui Yunlan, I've waited for this day for a total of twenty three years … I really have to thank the heavens for not letting you die in the hands of that Jue Tian. Because even in my dreams, I want to personally … tear your corpse into a thousand pieces!!"
A person who looked exactly the same as the Sect Leader, and he actually called the Sect Leader as Shui Yunlan?
Although it had already been twenty years, there were very few people who did not know that Elder Shui Xuanfeng had a son called Shui Yunlan, who looked exactly the same as the Sect Leader. But twenty years ago, because he was infatuated with the Sect Leader's wife, Shui Fu Er, he lost his mind and wanted to harm the Sect Leader's family. He caused the death of the Sect Leader and the Sect Leader's wife at that time. If not for Shui Xuanfeng placing justice before family, even the Young Sect Leader would have been killed by him … Afterwards, the Young Sect Leader remembered Shui Xuanfeng's relationship and did not kill "Shui Yunlan". Instead, he imprisoned "Shui Yunlan" in a small underground cave. "Shui Yunlan" also lost his mind because of this, and the people of Nanhuangzong would only occasionally talk about him when there was nothing important.
