Chen Luoyang looked at the Empress and raised a finger. "The Emperor's Decree."
A ball of light floated above the tip of his index finger. The ball of light was dark yellow, heavy and gloomy, like the netherworld of the earth.
In the center of the ball of light, there was a decree that looked like rubble.
Seeing this, the Empress's cheeks bulged as she reached out her hand.
Above her palm, there was also a ball of light. It was dark and gloomy, but unpredictable, like flowing water.
In the ball of light, there was a decree that looked like silk, but also like a transparent piece of paper.
"This should be the true appearance of the Black Water Decree …" Chen Luoyang nodded to himself.
He did not stand on ceremony. With a flick of his finger, his yellow decree floated in front of the Empress.
The Empress did the same, and the Black Water Decree floated in front of Chen Luoyang.
Cheng Shuzhi and Xu Qizhen watched from the side. Their expressions did not change. It was unknown whether they trusted the Empress's decision, or they knew that the Empress wanted to exchange information.
Chen Luoyang looked at the Black Water Decree that floated in front of him. He did not reach out to take it, but closed his eyes.
However, his spiritual sense had already begun to sense the profound concept contained in the Black Water Decree in Silence.
At this moment, Chen Luoyang felt as if his soul had left his body and transcended time and space. He looked down at the River of Time in Silence.
Following the reverse flow of time, he seemed to be able to see a figure at the end.
Feeling the majestic aura, Chen Luoyang had an epiphany.
Human Emperor …
However, it seemed to be just a shadow.
Chen Luoyang could not gain anything from it.
It seemed that if the Empress of East Zhou was really the direct descendant of the Human Emperor, then the mystery should not be in this Black Water Decree.
She had gained something else.
Or the Black Water Decree did contain more mysteries, but the Empress had already taken them away.
This thought flashed across Chen Luoyang's mind. He then calmed down and silently comprehended the mystery of the River of Time in the Black Water Decree.
The legendary five Human Emperor's edicts were all different.
The Azure Wood Talisman Order evolved into the Divine Tree of Creation. In addition to its vigorous vitality, it also left traces in the mortal world, manifesting all living beings into "fruits".
When the Yellow Earth Talisman transformed into the Netherworld of the Earth, it opened up an independent space, an independent underground world.
This Black Water Talisman Edict could manifest the River of Time and affect the flow of time for its owner to a certain extent.
If it was used against an enemy, it seemed like it could also affect the opponent.
The platinum edict of the King and Queen of the Barbarian Tribe, at present, seemed to have a defensive ability. Jingang was not bad, he was indestructible …
Chen Luoyang opened his eyes. His yellow talisman was back in front of him. The Empress of Dongzhou began to throw fruits into her mouth one by one.
"Sorry to keep you waiting." Chen Luoyang put away the yellow decree and returned the black water decree to the Empress.
"Under the influence of the Black Water Decree, it didn't last long." The Empress ate lychees as she put away the decree.
Chen Luoyang stood up. "Then, I'll take my leave."
The Empress looked at the mountain of lychees in front of her. "Don't you want some?"
"It's easy to get toothache if you eat too much." Chen Luoyang waved his hand casually, and two lychees flew into his hand. He peeled them unhurriedly and put the flesh into his mouth.
"Hierarch Chen, take care. Old Granduncle, please send the guest off for me." The Empress puffed her cheeks.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Prince Feng Ning Xu Qizhen immediately stepped forward and sent Chen Luoyang out of the main hall.
The Empress waved at Cheng Shu Zhi who stayed in the main hall.
Cheng Shu Zhi's face immediately fell. He walked to the side helplessly and began to peel the lychees. He piled the snow-white flesh in front of the Empress and put the rest into his mouth.
The Empress focused on destroying the snow-white "mountain" of flesh in front of her.
"Your Majesty, just now … was that really a Supreme Martial Artist?" Cheng Shu Zhi didn't stop, and his face showed a thoughtful expression. Slowly, he asked.
"I'm not sure." The Empress shook her head. "However, to be able to capture me, Old Lady Bao of Azure Dragon Island, and Bamboo Beiming of Mount Surging Waves at the same time, even Heavenly Demon Ye didn't have this ability at his peak. Whether it was a Supreme Martial Artist or not, whether the Supreme Martial Artist was injured or not, even if there was a possibility of a trick, it definitely can't be underestimated."
Cheng Shu Zhi nodded and peeled a lychee. "In other words, we just have to continue playing dumb?"
"At least for now, it's better to stay put. Elder Yun needs to recuperate, and I have to go find Xu Peng with Old Lady Bao and Zhu Beiming." The Empress curled her lips in dissatisfaction. "So troublesome."
"Troublesome is troublesome, but at least we got rid of two great enemies, Azure Dragon Island and Sword Master North Sea, which is a good thing." Cheng Shu Zhi advised, "Sword Master North Sea is helping Azure Dragon Island, and Azure Dragon Island was protecting Xu Peng previously. Now that Xu Peng has become the God of the Underworld, the Supreme Martial Artist has ordered that Azure Dragon Island Master and Sword Master North Sea also want to hunt him down. There is room for reconciliation with our Great Zhou."
He looked at the Empress. "However, why did Sword Master North Sea help Azure Dragon Island? Did he give an explanation to the Supreme Martial Artist? "
The Empress's cheeks puffed up and moved. "His wife reincarnated, and she is a disciple of Azure Dragon Island. She was also present at that time, and he did it to save her."
"Such a coincidence?" Cheng Shu Zhi was quite surprised.
"I didn't think of it at that time." The Empress glanced at Cheng Shu Zhi. "I know what you are thinking. You are thinking that if I didn't fish up the big fish and small shrimps at that time, and swept the other people of Azure Dragon Island into it, Zhu Beiming wouldn't have interfered, right?"
Cheng Shu Zhi sighed. "How would I dare? In the end, the grudge between Xu Peng and Azure Dragon Island started because of me. If not, there wouldn't have been so much trouble that day."
The Empress waved her hand. "You don't have to say that. They are on the same side, so of course I won't just stand by and watch."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Cheng Shu Zhi bowed, and then said in a low voice, "Sword Master North Sea is an emotional person. The reincarnated body of his deceased wife entered Azure Dragon Island to cultivate. Even if he doesn't advance or retreat with Azure Dragon Island in the future, it will be difficult for him to stay out of it. He is going to enter the world again."
The Empress of the East Zhou was surprised. "This kind of thing is the most troublesome."
Cheng Shu Zhi smiled faintly. "Your Majesty, forgive me for speaking bluntly. Previously, when Hierarch Chen said that he came today for two matters, one official and one private, I was still thinking, if his private matter is to propose marriage, what should I do …"
Before he could finish, a fruit pit smashed into his forehead.
Cheng Shu Zhi's expression didn't change. "I was just saying."
The Empress of the East Zhou stared at him with an unfriendly expression.
"The joke is over." Cheng Shu Zhi hurriedly said seriously, "However, from Hierarch Chen's words and actions today, the Ancient God has other plans at present, and doesn't plan to step into our Great Zhou."
From beginning to end, no one mentioned the matter of Green Bull Temple, forming a kind of silent tacit understanding.
The Empress said, "Continue to be careful."
"As Your Majesty commands." Cheng Shu Zhi nodded. "Elder Yun of the Milky Way must recuperate, and Your Majesty is busy with Xu Peng's matter. If possible, we should try our best to communicate with 'Crane Deity' and ask her to stay for a few more days."
The Empress of the East Zhou put the lychee meat into her mouth again, and ordered as she ate, "You have to work hard. Go to the Milky Way and ask Elder Yun to stay for a few more days, and tell Elder Yun what happened today in detail. He will make a decision."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Cheng Shu Zhi paused for a while, then continued, "Your Majesty, about Jiang Yi …"
The Empress smacked her fingers. "That old fox's words can't be completely trusted. Who knows what he is planning? Find out more about his whereabouts. "
After Cheng Shu Zhi promised, he said, "Your Majesty, there is one more thing. The young dragon of the Wei Clan, after this seclusion, may become powerful."
The Empress curled her lips. "Kill him with a kick."
Cheng Shu Zhi smiled bitterly. "Someone wants to kill him without waiting for him to kick."
"Ask you for help?" The Empress asked.
Cheng Shu Zhi nodded.
If the Empress didn't act personally, the royal family really didn't have enough confidence to eradicate the Wei Clan.
In terms of heritage and accumulation, the royal family naturally far surpassed the Wei Clan, but in terms of the top experts, the Wei Clan was quite impressive.
With the talent and strength that Wei Ling displayed, if he broke through to the eighteenth level, he could possibly become the third expert of the East Zhou.
This was also the reason why some of the royal family members found it increasingly difficult to bear.
If the Empress didn't act, the only person who could firmly suppress the Wei Clan father and son was "Rain Master" Cheng Shu Zhi.
"Then do you want to act?" The Empress's tone was casual.
Cheng Shu Zhi answered, "At present, the Wei Clan's thoughts are indeed a bit flexible, but it is more for self-protection, and they won't really have the intention to rebel. In my humble opinion, there is no need to force them to rebel. The Wei Clan father and son are both outstanding people, and it would naturally be best if they could be used by the Great Zhou Dynasty. It would also be beneficial in attracting other experts to join us.
People's hearts are fickle. In the future, it might be uncertain, but at present, they should still be useful. Of course, I will keep a close eye on them. "
"I'll leave it to you," the Empress answered casually, her attention on the fruit in front of her.
"Your Majesty, leave some stomach, there is still the banquet," Cheng Shu Zhi said helplessly.
The Empress didn't even raise her head, "Are you looking down on me?"
"Your subject doesn't dare." Cheng Shu Zhi sighed, excused himself, and left the main hall. Many palace maids came in again, continuing the important task of peeling the lychees for their emperor.
…
Chen Luoyang was escorted by Prince Feng Ning Xu Qizhen, walking in the palace.
On the way, Xu Qizhen asked, "Hierarch Chen, in a moment, His Majesty will hold a banquet in the palace. Do you think we should go directly, or do you want to leave the palace first and rest?"
"Let's leave the palace first, and come back later." Chen Luoyang's footsteps didn't stop.
Xu Qizhen nodded, and led Chen Luoyang out of the palace.
General Ding Yuan, Wei Chao Ran, was still waiting respectfully outside. Seeing the two come out, he came to greet them.
The two pillars of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty together escorted Chen Luoyang to his place of residence.
After coming out from Chen Luoyang's place, Prince Feng Ning Xu Qizhen calmly looked at Wei Chao Ran, "These days, Duke Ding Yuan has been running around everywhere, it must have been hard on you."
"You flatter me, you flatter me. Chao Ran is only doing his best to share Great Zhou's and His Majesty's worries." Wei Chao Ran slightly lowered his head, "Old Duke is representing His Majesty to oversee the capital, and repelled Mountain Chieftain Yan Ran. You are the true pillar of the country, the pillar that holds up the sky."
"Repelled is really an exaggeration. I only borrowed the power of the formation to temporarily resist, and it was all because of His Majesty's command. I am just a bag of old bones, I don't know how long I can hold on." Xu Qizhen's tone was gentle, "In the future, it will depend on you and your father to share His Majesty's worries."
