The important part of this statement was not the latter half, but the first three words.
The White Emperor had no interest in using Chen Changsheng and Yuren to provoke Shang Xingzhou's emotions.
He had very frankly, or rather shamelessly, expressed his bottom line to Shang Xingzhou.
If Shang Xingzhou insisted on the Demon Lord's death, Shang Xingzhou might be heavily injured today, perhaps even killed.
Only this would involve the question of which student the Human race would be handed over to.
Why did the White Emperor have the confidence to say this?
Shang Xingzhou understood that everything originated from Madam Mu, who had never been mentioned.
She had been standing in the clouds this entire time, with no intention of leaving.
No matter how one looked at it, the betrayed White Emperor could not forgive Madam Mu.
But Shang Xingzhou knew that the White Emperor could change his attitude at any time, even if it disgusted him.
"Some people will live, and some people will die."
Shang Xingzhou looked into the White Emperor's eyes.
The stones shattered and a wave of Qi surged through the street, collapsing the black eaves of a row of houses.
Countless gazes looked over. They saw Shang Xingzhou, but not the White Emperor.
The White Emperor had arrived in the clouds.
He and Madam Mu quietly faced each other.
"You've finished your discussion with Shang Xingzhou?"
Madam Mu seemed to be asking a very ordinary question.
The White Emperor also casually replied, "The Demon Lord will live."
Madam Mu looked to the west and said, "Sometimes, I also wonder just how all this began."
"Perhaps it's because you always like to look at home? Everything originates from one's own choices, like the choice you made three years ago. "
The White Emperor said, "I didn't think that as husband and wife, you would actually want to put me to death."
Madam Mu indifferently said, "In my life, I have never seen someone as hypocritical as you. Even at a time like this, you still want to say these things."
The White Emperor smiled. "Was it not you who used the strength of the sea tides to seal my mausoleum?"
Madam Mu turned to look into his eyes. "Was it not your own choice to enter death seclusion?"
The White Emperor did not answer, instead asking, "When did you confirm that I was still alive?"
Madam Mu replied, "On that night, Old Xiang went to the Starfall Mountains. When he returned, he said that he sensed your will."
The White Emperor asked, "Was it not you who requested him to do this?"
Madam Mu replied, "This is Luo Heng's marriage. Even if I requested it, he would not dare to refuse your order."
"I don't know what you mean."
The White Emperor said, "If I remember correctly, he should have secretly sided with you two years ago."
Madam Mu mocked, "If my guess is correct, this was something you arranged for him to do three years ago."
Countless years ago, the entire continent believed that the White Emperor and Madam Mu were deeply in love, a Saint couple admired by the world.
Who would have thought that there was no trust between them at all? The so-called mutual deception was just a daily routine.
The White Emperor asked, "Why do you suspect him?"
Madam Mu jeered, "Anyone with eyes can see that he is your loyal dog, your fervent believer."
Perhaps he was thinking of that mountain-like figure that had collapsed in front of the Imperial City, but the White Emperor fell silent for a very long time.
In the eyes of others, this was either regret, sadness, or self-blame.
But in Madam Mu's view, this was a shameless and nauseating act.
"There's no need for you to put on such an act in front of me. For the last two hundred years, you've always wanted to kill this most prestigious and most senior elder, wanted to eliminate the Xiang clan he belongs to, but because he and his clansmen are too loyal, you've never been able to find a suitable excuse or reason. Now that you've finally managed to use his loyalty with great difficulty to throw a few buckets of dirty water at me, you naturally want to kill him as quickly as possible. "
The derision on Madam Mu's face intensified. "Now that you mention it, you're truly very similar to your old friends, Shang Xingzhou. Truly hypocritical to the extreme. He wants to kill his own student, but he also doesn't want to dirty his own hands, so he wants to borrow my hand, and you do the same. "
The White Emperor's expression did not change. "Since you knew that I was still alive, why didn't you stop me from coming out?"
"If you wanted to come out, you naturally could. If you didn't want to come out, it meant that you wanted to watch the show."
Madam Mu expressionlessly said, "We've been husband and wife for many years, so we still have this bit of tacit understanding. By refusing to come out, you are tacitly agreeing to my plan. You want to watch me and Black Robe do these things, but I don't understand why you would stop me from acting against Chen Changsheng."
It now appeared that the strength that had left Chen Changsheng wary and puzzled no matter how he thought about it had naturally come from the White Emperor.
Only the White Emperor could change the allegiance of the entire Demi-human race in a single night without appearing.
Madam Mu did not need the White Emperor to answer this question. She quickly deduced the answer.
"Presumably, you know that Shang Xingzhou can appear at any time."
The White Emperor replied, "Correct. In the end, I still underestimated my old friend's daring and methods. I didn't expect that he would request Xu Yourong's help."
"No one wants to drink tea on the stage while you drink tea below the stage."
Madam Mu sneered at him. "I don't want you to continue watching the show, and neither does Shang Xingzhou. Everyone wants you to go on stage and sing."
The White Emperor replied, "I also underestimated Chen Changsheng's resolve and perseverance."
Madam Mu thought of those figures that traveled back and forth between the Imperial City and the Starfall Mountains and shook her head.
She had also not expected Chen Changsheng to have the ability and the revered patience to use the sword array in his hands to wear down the seal.
From that moment onwards, the White Emperor could no longer play the role of a miserable and imprisoned sovereign isolated from the world.
All the contradictions exploded in that moment, all the stories had their beginnings, and all the characters on the stage entered the stage.
This was seeing all living beings.
Madam Mu jeered at him, "Although you were ultimately forced out by that master and disciple like a clown, I will not sympathize with you."
The White Emperor calmly replied, "I do not need sympathy."
"Then what about him?"
Madam Mu stroked her abdomen and looked at the White Emperor. "Does your son need sympathy?"
A young life that had not had the time to see the heavens and earth, to see all living beings, needed sympathy because it could not see these things.
In other words, it had died prematurely.
The White Emperor's gaze fell on Madam Mu's abdomen.
Madam Mu's abdomen was very flat.
"It is not easy for my White Emperor clan to pass on its bloodline. The fetus needs to be pregnant for five years, and giving birth is even more difficult."
The White Emperor calmly said, "But we already have Luoluo."
Madam Mu stared into his eyes and said, "In the end, she is only a daughter."
"This is your greatest mistake, because I have never felt that there is any difference between a daughter and a son, so I naturally have never thought about having another son. I still do not understand where the people of the Great Western Continent come from in this regard. "
The White Emperor's expression grew more and more derisive, his words more and more harsh.
"Because a daughter has to marry and cannot retire, or because a girl is extroverted? But I see that you've been married to my White Emperor City for so many years, and you've always been thinking about your maiden home. You've never treated this place as your home, and you've never treated me as your family. Since that's the case, what are you worried about? "
