On this day, when the Yuan Dynasty Emperor was sorting out the harvest of the five major sects in the palace, Ya Ye's figure walked in from the sect. Ya Ye took a towel from the basin rack next to him. After gently brushing the dust off his body, he hung the towel to the side and walked to a chair to sit down.
"Have you contacted him?" Sei Itō, who was organizing the books, asked without raising his head.
"I have, but he is a little hesitant," Ya Ye looked at Sei Itō and said hesitantly.
"Oh, it's okay. I believe he will come." Sei Itō stopped what he was doing and said with a sneer.
Ya Ye thought for a while and nodded in agreement. He frowned and asked, "Is it really okay to give such a heavy responsibility to a child who is not even 20 years old?"
"Do you still think he is the child who needed you to take care of him?" Sei Itō walked to the main seat and sat down. He found a comfortable position and said lazily, "Now that he is the leader of the Ming Cult, do you think he can control the Ming Cult so quickly with just the prestige of the White-browed Eagle King and his martial arts? Also, you should know that not just anyone would dare to do something like rebelling against the Yuan Dynasty. "
"People change." Sei Itō concluded faintly. What she got in return was only silence from Ya Ye.
The two of them were silent for a while. Sei Itō was bored and started to organize the books of the five major sects' Hidden Scriptures Pavilions.
After this period of tidying up, he had a general idea of the ancient books of the five great sects. Moreover, he really had some gains. For example, the Kongtong Sect had a large number of rare books from the Tang Dynasty. On the other hand, the Huashan Sect had bamboo slips that could be traced back to the Qin Dynasty. However, due to the nature of this world, the majority of the books were the Buddhist, Taoist, and Confucian classics of the Quanzhen Sect. Even so, the books could be traced back to the Five Dynasties, Sui, and Tang Dynasties. Sei Itō was also surprised by the fact that Kunlun had mostly obtained some Maoshan spells, which was completely different from Kunlun's reputation.
Just like that, he tidied up and studied at the same time. A few more days passed.
On this day, just as Sei Itō and Ya Ye were eating dinner, a faint sound of something breaking through the air came from the void and landed at the door. A handsome young man who was more than seven feet tall appeared at the door. He looked like a fine young master in a chaotic world.
"Sister Ya Ye, Mr. Yi." The young man cupped his hands and greeted the two.
"Oh, it's Wuji. Come in quickly." Ya Ye put down the bowl in his hand and quickly got up to greet the young man at the door, who was Zhang Wuji, with a smile.
"You dare to come?" Sei Itō sneered at Zhang Wuji, who was pulled into the room by Ya Ye.
"…" Zhang Wuji's face turned slightly red. He was awkwardly pushed to the seat by Ya Ye. Then, Ya Ye walked to the side, took out a clean bowl, and filled it to the brim for Zhang Wuji.
"You haven't eaten yet, right? Let's eat together." Ya Ye placed the bowl in front of Zhang Wuji and smiled.
"Thank you, Sister Ya Ye." Zhang Wuji smiled sincerely at Ya Ye. Then, he looked at Sei Itō opposite him and began to eat embarrassedly.
"Alright, let's talk after dinner." Sei Itō nodded. Then, the three of them finished their dinner in this somewhat strange atmosphere. Ya Ye got up to clear the table, leaving Sei Itō and Zhang Wuji alone.
In the room, the two of them sat opposite each other. No one spoke first, and only remained silent … until a long while later, Sei Itō suddenly spoke. "Do you want to be the emperor?"
"What?" Zhang Wuji was stunned by Sei Itō's words. Then, he was shocked and looked at Sei Itō at a loss. He didn't know what Sei Itō meant.
"Do you want to be the emperor?" Sei Itō asked again.
"What does Mr. Yi mean?" Zhang Wuji frowned and looked at Sei Itō hesitantly.
"If I let you be the emperor, what do you think?" Sei Itō finally gave a definite answer.
"Me?" Zhang Wuji was surprised for a moment. Then, he was moved and hesitant. His eyes were filled with passion as he looked at Sei Itō.
"Are you willing or not? Just say it. Could it be that you, as the leader of the Ming Cult, don't even know how to make a decision? "Sei Itō frowned and looked at Zhang Wuji unhappily.
"I am willing." Zhang Wuji immediately swept away his hesitation and released his aura. He looked like an ambitious person as he looked at Sei Itō with burning eyes.
"Good, I will give you a chance. I will give you a chance to become the emperor." Sei Itō said decisively. "You have a month to prepare. After a month, I don't care if you are ready or not. I will kill all the nobles of the Yuan Dynasty in the capital. As for the rest, it will all depend on you. "
"Thank you, Mr. Yi." Zhang Wuji stood up and said with his hands clasped to the ground. Then, Zhang Wuji stood up and asked doubtfully, "But Mr. Zhang, why did you choose me to be the emperor …"
"Ha." Sei Itō sneered and looked at Zhang Wuji from the corner of his eyes. How could he not know that Zhang Wuji was testing him? He only said slowly, "First of all, I am not interested in the position of emperor. You should have known this when you were in WuTang."
As soon as he said this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Zhang Wuji's face. Then, it disappeared. He calmly waited for Sei Itō to continue.
"Secondly, you are the only one I know who has the strength and power to do so." Sei Itō said quietly, "Moreover, with your age, scheming, and methods, you are a good candidate to be the emperor."
"Lastly, there is your identity. You are the leader of the Ming Cult and a disciple of WuTang. You can adjust the forces of Jianghu very well. In the future, you can at least achieve stability on the surface. You will not fall into internal strife right after toppling the Yuan Dynasty. "
Zhang Wuji nodded as if he had suddenly understood.
"Of course, this is only my opinion. As for the future, it will depend on your own methods. I just hope that when the time comes, you can be a good emperor and give the Han people a peaceful world. "Sei Itō ignored Zhang Wuji's expression and said softly.
"Please rest assured, Mr. Yi." Zhang Wuji heard Sei Itō's words and immediately stood up. He cupped his fist and said with a serious expression.
"Yes." Ito Mori nodded noncommittally. He picked up the cold teacup beside him and said, "Go ahead."
"Yes." Zhang Wuji nodded and walked out of the room. He then jumped and disappeared into the darkness.
Until the end, Sei Itō did not remind Zhang Wuji of Zhu Yuanzhang's existence. He believed that with Zhang Wuji's scheming, he should have already noticed Zhu Yuanzhang. If Zhang Wuji could not even handle this small problem, then he would not be a good emperor.
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed. At this time, within the Hall of Supreme Harmony, all the nobles of the Mongol Dynasty were gathered together. They gathered in small groups and discussed current affairs in low voices, guessing the reason why the emperor had called them here today.
Suddenly, outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the unique sharp voice of a chamberlain rang out. "The emperor has arrived."
Following which, a short and fat man with a Mongol hairstyle, wearing a dragon robe, accompanied by Sei Itō and a chamberlain, walked into the Hall of Supreme Harmony and sat down on the high throne.
"Men!" Looking at the Mongol nobles who were still half kneeling on the ground, the Mongol Emperor who had not even warmed his seat suddenly shouted. In an instant, a large number of soldiers charged into the Hall of Supreme Harmony, unsheathing their scimitars and surrounding the Mongol nobles.
"Kill them all!" The Mongol Emperor ordered.
"Ah?!" The Mongol nobles were stunned by the emperor's sudden action and order, forgetting to resist. Almost immediately, the dozen or so Mongolian nobles at the outermost perimeter were killed by the charging soldiers.
"The emperor has gone mad, the emperor has gone mad, all of you stop!" At this time, the Prince of Xiangyang regained his senses and shouted out. The Iron Hat Princes beside him also quickly stood up and ordered the soldiers.
"Stop, stop, the emperor has gone mad, did you not hear?"
Maybe it was because the Mongol nobles had too much prestige, or maybe it was because the nobles had too much prestige among the soldiers, it caused a slight hesitation and pause in the soldiers' movements when they swung their scimitars.
"Do not stop, quickly kill these fellows for me. After killing them, there will be great rewards! "The Mongol Emperor stood up from his throne and shouted out.
Immediately, the Mongol soldiers who were still hesitating no longer hesitated, and the scimitars in their hands began to kill the nobles and princes. In less than a moment, the originally majestic Hall of Supreme Harmony was covered in blood. Wisps of blood-colored steam and the stench of fresh blood floated into the air of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, causing the Hall of Supreme Harmony to feel like a killing ground.
"All of you, immediately lead the troops and surround these people's mansions. Behead all their family members for me. Anyone who resists or obstructs me, regardless of who they are, will be executed for the crime of treason." The Yuan Emperor looked at the nobles who were all beheaded and sat back on the dragon throne as he ordered.
"Yes." The general of the soldiers in the hall replied and quickly led the soldiers out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, leaving behind a portion of them to guard the place. The rest were all brought out of the palace to be exterminated.
"Sir, do you think this will do?" The Emperor waved his hand and dismissed the servants beside him. He stood up from his throne and asked Sei Itō respectfully.
"It's enough, you have done well. Now, it is time to send you over to accompany them." Sei Itō looked at the Emperor in front of him and chuckled, "If you want to blame someone, blame it on the fact that you are the Yuan Emperor. If you were a Han Emperor, even if you were an incapable ruler, I would not take your life."
After saying that, he ignored the Emperor's expression and killed him with a wave of his hand.
"Ya Ye, spread the news, it is time for us to leave." Sei Itō said to a hidden place in the hall. There was no response, but several messenger birds flew into the air and quickly flew in different directions.
