This rhetorical question disrupted her train of thought, leaving Zhao Youqu speechless.
She knew that all the women in the Zhao family had this hidden danger. It wasn't easy for a talented genius to appear, but this hidden danger nibbled away at her.
As for the men, there had never been anyone with the slightest talent. Although Zhao Mingcong was a magnate, he relied on pills to force his way into the magnate realm. There was no hope for him to enter the next realm in this lifetime.
The family couldn't rely on Empress Diva forever. Everyone knew that the Human Emperor couldn't have children, so it was impossible for the family to continue.
The Zhao family had to find a fulcrum so that they wouldn't be kicked down by everyone before the next era.
Although Empress Diva was strong, she had too many responsibilities on her shoulders. Sooner or later, she would pass away with the Human Emperor. Zhao Youqu could only bear all the burdens.
However, she felt that the burden on her shoulders was getting heavier and heavier. Just as she said, the higher the realm, the more important the talent.
At the same time, the hidden danger weighed down on her as her realm increased. Now, she had been stuck in the late stage of the King Realm for three years.
Although her strength continued to grow and she even had a place for herself in the Heavenly Academy, she could only watch the rising stars surpass her. She couldn't do anything.
When her younger sister Zhao Buqu suddenly brought her hope, she actually had endless thoughts in her heart.
However, she didn't expect that everything was related to that lowly brothel worker. Not to mention, he actually wanted her to take off her clothes for her to see.
He obviously wanted to take advantage of her. He was extremely shameless.
She didn't understand why Zhao Buqu believed him, but she definitely wouldn't believe Ye Tianze.
Looking at his elder sister's departing figure, Zhao Bufu sighed deeply. "Perhaps … what my elder sister is indignant about is that even a lowly prostitute from a brothel was able to grow to where she is today in a single night. Yet, despite working so hard for so many years, she still isn't even half of the other party's achievements.
Beside the Heavenly River.
Ye Tianze held the hairpin in his hand and quietly watched the river surge past. The world had changed, and time flew by. He could still remember the scene when he gave away the hairpin. It was as if it had just happened yesterday. He wanted to burn his heart, and there was a sharp pain in the heat.
"Wouldn't it be great if none of this happened?" Ye Tianze gripped the hairpin in a death grip.
Suddenly, a boat came from afar, and the words Tantric Buddhism could be seen vaguely. Ye Tianze suddenly had an ominous premonition.
"Aiya … I don't want to live anymore … I don't want to live anymore … Aiya, I don't want to live anymore …" An ear-piercing cry rang out.
Ye Tianze turned his head and saw a woman. He jumped into the rushing river.
His figure flashed, and the moment the woman landed, he reached out to grab her. However, when he saw the woman's face, he immediately withdrew his hand.
"Plop."
The woman fell into the river, but she was not swept away by the river. She swam back and climbed ashore. Her clothes were wet, and one could vaguely see the boundless spring scenery underneath.
She walked over, puffed out her chest, and said angrily, "You, how can you be so heartless? You didn't save me when I was dying?"
"What does not save me have to do with my conscience?" Ye Tianze retorted.
"You!" The woman stared at him coldly. "What if I don't know how to swim?"
"You jumped in yourself, so there must be a reason why you can't live. Since this world is so bitter, you can die happily if you can't live anymore." Ye Tianze gave her a thumbs up. "Those who have the courage to die deserve to be encouraged."
"…" The woman.
"Hey, hey, hey, it's fine if you don't save me, but what kind of logic is this? What do you mean by dying happily? Aren't you going to ask me why I jumped into the river to commit suicide?" The woman said angrily.
"No." Ye Tianze shook his head.
"…" The woman.
After a moment of silence, the woman suddenly shouted, "Molestation, molestation, someone molested me …"
Ye Tianze's face darkened. He quickly covered her mouth and said, "What are you shouting for? Who molested you?"
"You, men and women can't be separated. You covered my mouth, that's molestation." The woman said proudly.
"What are you trying to do?" Ye Tianze quickly let go. "If you have something to say, say it!"
"My name is Li Muzi. I came from a brothel. I have a son called Zhao E 'Lai!" Li Muzi said. "He's now successful and doesn't want to acknowledge me. Do you think … I should go and reason with him?"
"Mm!" Ye Tianze looked at the coquettish woman in front of him. He thought, Zhao Mingli, you like this kind of trash. Can this be considered a beauty that can cause the downfall of a city?
"Don't look at me like that. Zhao E 'Lai, let me tell you, even if you turn into ashes, I'll still recognize you. No matter who you become, you'll still have to take care of me when I'm old." Li Muzi said with a cold face.
"You're really Li Muzi?" Ye Tianze asked curiously.
"That's right. I'm Imperial Dragon City's Li Muzi. If it wasn't for that heartless Zhao E 'Lai who deceived me, I wouldn't have ended up like this. He stole my son, changed my appearance, and threw me into that godforsaken place. I …" Li Muzi gritted her teeth. It was as if she wanted to skin Zhao Mingli alive.
When Ye Tianze heard this, he immediately looked at her. He found that Li Muzi's appearance was indeed not compatible with her bones. He carefully described it and actually saw a beautiful figure on this coquettish woman.
He touched his eyes and saw that gaudy face again. He couldn't help but think.
"I know … you're not my son!" Li Muzi suddenly said. Her eyes were filled with hatred, "Although I don't know what happened, but … the enmity of my son's death is absolutely irreconcilable!"
For a moment, Ye Tianze was really frightened by Li Muzi. The hatred in her eyes was very similar to his when he just transmigrated.
"Don't worry, I won't look for you for revenge. If I want to look, I'll look for that bastard Zhao Mingli. He even killed his own son. If I don't take revenge, I'm not human!" Li Muzi said.
"Then why are you looking for me?" Ye Tianze asked.
"Although I don't know who you are, but …" Li Muzi sneered, "There must be a lot of conspiracy. Since you took my son's place, then … you have to protect me and fulfill the responsibility of my son!"
"Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?" Ye Tianze's face was cold. A murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Li Muzi immediately took two steps back. However, she quickly calmed down and said, "Although I'm not a cultivator, I've seen more people than you. I can see that you're kind on the inside despite your ruthless appearance. You'll never kill a weak woman like me."
"…" Ye Tianze was speechless.
"Don't follow me. Live well. It'll be more dangerous if you follow me," Ye Tianze said.
When Li Muzi heard this, she immediately hugged his hand. Her chest was tightly pressed against his arm, and she said, "Don't even think about getting rid of me. Either you kill me now, or … you can take care of me when I'm old!"
"I!!!" Ye Tianze clenched his fists. In the end, he loosened them, "Let go of me. Fine, I promise you. However, you can't seek revenge on Zhao Mingli, because …"
"I know it's very dangerous. If there's no chance, I won't do it." Li Muzi laughed. "Hahaha …"
