The fact that Ye Zichen was the Emperor Star wasn't a secret to the great emperors, but they'd never announced it to the public. Because of the Divine Arbiter's presence in the group, they all referred to him as "Alliance Leader Ye."
When he'd opened the Emperor Star's Eye, they'd used Xue Tie to conceal Ye Zichen's identity as the Master of the Stars. No matter how you looked at it, it was perfect.
Yet now, the Divine Arbiter was so certain that Ye Zichen was the Master of the Stars. Although everyone was shocked, they maintained their composure and didn't react.
"Heh …"
The Divine Arbiter couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh at the emperors' disguises.
"You don't have to do this. Your plan back then might be able to fool those unintelligent fellows, but you can't fool me. I always knew that kid called Xue Tie was just a substitute you used to confuse everyone. The real Master of the Stars is, without a doubt, Ye Zichen. "
"What do you want to say?" asked Xuan Ji. "I know full well that Ye Zichen is the Emperor Star's Master, but I still told the God Emperor that the chances of Xue Tie being the Emperor Star were higher. Isn't that enough?" The Divine Arbiter didn't avert her gaze in the slightest. What she said now was the truth. She had a clear conscience, so naturally, she would not be afraid.
I have already proven my sincerity by helping you conceal the authenticity of the Emperor Star. You should know that the God Emperor has been searching for the Emperor Star all this time. "
The great emperors, including Ye Zichen and the others, all looked at the Divine Arbiter with various expressions.
If everything was really as she said, then they would indeed owe her a huge favor. They absolutely didn't doubt the God Emperor's trust in the Divine Arbiter. If the Divine Arbiter said Ye Zichen was the Emperor Star, the God Emperor would attack him without hesitation.
The Divine Arbiter's mist had saved them a great deal of trouble, but Xuan Ji's expression remained grim.
This wasn't like the Divine Arbiter she knew. Or rather, it wasn't like the Divine Arbiter she knew who was wholeheartedly devoted to the God Emperor.
The Divine Arbiter was one of Zhou Wu's most trusted subordinates. Their relationship was that of superior and subordinate, but in private, they were lovers. The Divine Arbiter was unswervingly loyal to Zhou Wu. She did her best to complete all the missions he gave her, and she pursued them to the extreme.
But why was she acting like this now?
Just because what Zhou Wu did scared her, she hid it from him?
"What's in it for you?" Asked Xuan Ji. "I still can't believe that you … the Divine Arbiter would hide something from Zhou Wu and do something detrimental to him." "I told you, I would never betray him. I was saving him." The Divine Arbiter suddenly turned her head and glared at Xuan Ji. "Everything he's doing right now is too crazy. Everything I'm doing is so that he can stay alive in the end, so that he can drag out his feeble existence. As for your trust, I.
There's no need at all! "
With that, the Divine Arbiter's gaze landed on Ye Zichen.
"Since you are the Emperor Star, they will naturally follow your wishes. I'm just here to get a promise from you. "
"What promise?" Ye Zichen frowned. "If Zhou Wu really goes astray and ends up falling into your hands, please spare his life for my sake." The Divine Arbiter's gaze was sincere. "That's all I want. As long as you agree, I can give you all the information I know. As for you … you don't need to trust me.
I don't need you to trust me! "
Silence.
The Divine Arbiter's burning gaze made Ye Zichen hesitate. He could sense her true feelings, but he couldn't tell if she was telling the truth or not.
"Forget it. Just agree."
To his surprise, while Ye Zichen was hesitating, Xuan Ji's transmission appeared in his sea of consciousness.
From the very beginning, Xuan Ji had questioned the Divine Arbiter the most and suspected her the most. But in the end, the first person to make Ye Zichen agree was Xuan Ji.
When he heard Xuan Ji's suggestion, Ye Zichen had already made up his mind.
In truth, even if Xuan Ji hadn't sent him a transmission, he would've most likely agreed anyway. However, Xuan Ji's transmission made him even more certain.
"Alright, I agree."
As soon as Ye Zichen said this, the Divine Arbiter burst into tears of joy.
Her eyes reddened and she nodded repeatedly at Ye Zichen. She bit her lip and said, "Thank you." "What exactly is Zhou Wu doing to make you like this?" The Jade Lake Palace Master couldn't help but ask, but the Divine Arbiter coldly refused. "I'm sorry, I can't say. I told you, I will not betray him. The information I provide you in the future will never touch upon Zhou Wu's core secrets.
”
After refusing the Jade Lake Palace Master, the Divine Arbiter smiled at Ye Zichen and nodded. "I didn't come here for nothing. I'll leave God's Rain and Shika-chan to you. The two of them have been gifted with intelligence since they were young, and they will definitely not let you down in the future. I can't stay here for too long either. The God Emperor doesn't trust me as much as he did in the past. If I stay here for too long, I might be discovered by him.
Farewell. "
The void above them shattered like a mirror, and the Divine Arbiter ducked into the crack, disappearing from everyone's sight.
Even after she left, the Great Emperors remained silent for a long time. Zhao Qianhe was the first to speak.
"Don't you think what she said is contradictory?" "Little sister, you haven't experienced love between a man and a woman, so you won't understand." The Jade Lake Palace Master gently patted Zhao Qianhe's shoulder, her eyes filled with pity as she looked at the space that was about to recover. "She … is a pitiful woman. Not to mention that her words were contradictory, she was also sure that Mao was in her heart now.
The shield is strong. "
"I really don't know what great virtue Zhou Wu accumulated in his past life for the Divine Arbiter to be so hell-bent on him," said Great Emperor Bi 'an.
"I'm rather curious as to what exactly Zhou Wu is up to," said the Ocean Emperor.
The other Great Emperors nodded in agreement. They were all curious as to what exactly Zhou Wu was plotting to make the Divine Arbiter so afraid. "Alright, don't pay too much attention to this," said Xuan Ji. "In the future, with news of the Divine Arbiter, our situation will improve a bit. Whatever Zhou Wu is up to, we'll just have to deal with it as it comes. The current situation doesn't allow us to waste too much energy on him.
We can't afford to waste too much energy on him. "
With that, Xuan Ji looked at Ye Zichen. "Now that the Divine Arbiter knows you're the Emperor Star, you have to be even more careful in the future. I'll finish refining your Soul Pearl Yiyuan in the near future, then return it to you. I've been delaying it for so long because I've been researching how to preserve its memories. The geniuses have come looking for you.
