"Master, there's something I don't understand." Long Shui, one of the four Long Men, walked out.
Long Shui was the only woman among the four of them. She was also the youngest. She was about eighteen or nineteen years old. She had a graceful figure and a pair of watery eyes that were full of emotions.
The four people of Wanlong Gambling House were four very good magicians. Among them, Long Huo and Long Tu were old people who had served Empress Li. Long Feng and Long Shui were later discovered by Ye Beiming and joined Wanlong Gambling House.
The outside world thought that Ye Beiming had been secluded in the Cold Palace for many years. In fact, he had already been moving around the mainland when he was still blind.
But at that time, his identity was only the owner of Wanlong Gambling House.
Long Shui was the latest to join. Her original name was Shui Youran. She was born in a scholarly family. But because her family's fortune declined, she was bought into a brothel.
At that time, she was only ten years old, but she was already very intelligent. She was not willing to be buried in a brothel for the rest of her life. So, she escaped when a guest was drunk.
Coincidentally, when Ye Beiming and Long Huo went out to do something, they happened to meet Shui Youran, who was being chased by a brothel. So, they saved her.
Ye Beiming checked and found that Shui Youran was actually a genius in learning magic. So, he simply took her in and changed her name to Long Shui.
Until now, Long Shui still remembered how she looked when she first met Ye Beiming.
It was a snowy day. She was wearing the clothes of a prostitute and stumbled all the way out of the brothel.
Behind her, the people of the brothel were shouting and cursing ferociously. It was like the sound of a demon urging her to die. She only knew to keep running forward.
Until she fell to the ground and cold ice shards hit her face.
Just when she thought that she would never have the chance to get rid of the group of demons behind her, two people appeared in front of her.
Under Gray Fox's command, there was a boy who was so handsome that it made people fall into a trance. Beside him was a tall man.
The boy's eyes were dim, but the aura on his body was so soul-stirring.
Facing the people of the brothel, the boy only said one word, "Kill!"
That was clearly a child, but when that word was spat out from that mouth that was as thin as a blade, it made one's hair stand on end.
Even a true emperor would not be able to maintain his composure in the face of an army of ten thousand.
The moment Long Huo made a move, he killed the head of the brothel.
"From now on, you will be called Longshui. I am your master, Ye Beiming. "The boy's words were like a brand that was branded in Shui Youran's heart.
That was the only time Long Shui had ever heard Ye Beiming's name.
Since then, she could only call him Master.
Long Shui only found out about Ye Beiming's true identity a year later.
In her mind, her master, who was born with the temperament of a royal family, had an illustrious background. He was the former Crown Prince of Zhou State.
After learning about this, Long Shui was very indignant. She had seen Ye Beilian, the Crown Prince of Zhou State, who was a lecherous, cowardly, and incompetent mediocre man. Such a person actually replaced her noble master in her mind and became the Crown Prince of Zhou State.
Long Shui believed that her master would never succumb to such a person.
Sure enough, in the next few years, she saw her master secretly cultivating forces. He was nominally an idle prince, but in fact, he had an army that could not be underestimated.
This time, Long Shui met Ye Beiming again after several years. She was pleasantly surprised to find that her master's eyes had recovered.
Her master, who was originally as handsome as a god, now looked as flawless as a beautiful jade.
Looking at Ye Beiming, Long Shui could not help but be infatuated.
Her memory suddenly stopped.
"Longshui." Long Huo looked at Long Shui with dissatisfaction.
She had obviously dressed up carefully today. Her beautiful face looked a little more enchanting.
Long Shui collected her thoughts and looked at her master with half infatuation.
"It's fine. Long Shui, do you want to ask me why I don't take advantage of this competition to weaken Zhou State's power and force the Crown Prince to abdicate?" Ye Beiming did not take Long Shui's rudeness to heart.
"Yes, according to master's plan these years, isn't it to make the Emperor of Zhou State a mere figurehead? Within Zhou State, there are few martial practitioners. The Residence of Yun is already the last support of Zhou State. If Yun Bahe dies this time, won't we have a better chance? " Although ten million imperial gold coins was a considerable amount, it was nothing compared to the Wanlong Gambling House, which made hundreds of thousands of gold coins a day.
"Yun Bahe is now poisoned. He can no longer support the Residence of Yun. As for Yun Canglang, when he finds out the truth of what happened back then, he will definitely no longer be loyal to the Emperor of Zhou State. "Ye Beiming muttered. Indeed, he had once wanted to use this opportunity to cut off Yun Bahe, who was like the Emperor of Zhou State's right-hand man.
He had already started to make meticulous plans to weaken the Residence of Yun several years ago.
However … a small episode had appeared in the middle of this, forcing him to stop his plans.
Yun Sheng … because he did not want her to be sad, he had stopped this plan.
Fortunately, although there had been some changes to the plan, the final goal had been achieved.
If he didn't guess wrong, the real crisis had just erupted.
Within Yujing City, there was a surging undercurrent. The situation of some rejoicing and some worrying had yet to be broken.
In the main temple of the Continental Law Temple, Elder Judge Ji Yu was meditating as usual.
Suddenly, his eyebrows twitched. An ominous feeling in his heart grew stronger.
Ji Yu immediately stopped meditating. With a teleportation, he was already standing in front of the Heavenly Mandate Mirror.
He looked at the mirror and found that there was a crack on the Heaven's Mandate Mirror, which was originally intact.
The crack was very small, but it was especially glaring on the mirror.
The Heavenly Mandate Mirror had broken … Could it be that something had happened to the situation on the continent?
Ji Yu hurriedly performed a divination. Looking at the divination, his expression became even more gloomy.
"Elder Judge Ming, there's news from the Great Zhou Dynasty. The Martial Sages of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Later Qin Dynasty are dueling …" A boy from the temple ran in and handed a letter to Ji Yu.
Ji Yu suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and opened the letter.
The letter was sent by his old friend, Wen Daguo, the Great Master of the Medicine Emperor Pavilion.
The ink on the letter was still wet. The few lines were especially glaring.
"Tian Quozi is missing, Yun Bahe is alive …" Ji Yu's originally calm expression changed drastically at this moment. There was only one thought in his mind right now, and that was to immediately contact Xia Wenxu.
The Heavenly Mandate Mirror's predictions were never wrong. Yun Bahe's fate had been a bloody disaster the last time he performed a divination. But this time, there was a glimmer of hope.
Fate could not be changed. If there really was a change, there could only be one reason — someone had leaked the heavenly secrets.
Ji Yu immediately drew a light magic array. Soon, Xia Wenxu appeared on the other side of the array.
