Fantasy: Ten Dragons Compete for the Throne, I, the Villain, Choose to Play it Off

Chapter 37 The conspiracy of the three major forces is far-reaching!
Emperor Huangdi, one of the Five Emperors and the progenitor of Chinese civilization?

Descendants of the Xuanyuan clan?

Or is he a cursed lone star?

No wonder he was able to become friends with Li Yueyao; both of them had extremely bad fates, so they were kindred spirits.

"I strongly suspect that the reason I was assassinated by Xiao Yun so early in my previous life was because I was cursed by Li Yueyao?"

Li Qiye remembered that Li Yueyao's fate was also bad; it seemed to be—Seven Killings!

The fact that these two could become friends means they're incredibly lucky; most people probably couldn't withstand that.

The female war goddess was silent for a moment, glanced at Li Yueyao beside her, and then said, "Qin Linglong specifically instructed that this matter can only be known by three people, and it cannot be revealed to others!"

Li Qiye nodded and said, "You, me, and Yueyao, that makes three people."

Li Qiye spoke in a very calm tone, as if he didn't care at all about not being able to reveal it to others.

Li Yueyao blinked, a charming smile appearing on her face.

She often wondered if her brother Qiye would distance himself from her after he found out she had a secret, but now it seemed his worries were unnecessary.

That was enough, but she would certainly not betray that trust.

"Brother Qiye, look how forgetful I am! I just brewed tea..."

"You two can chat slowly. I'll go and bring over the brewed tea."

Li Yueyao suddenly slapped her forehead, stood up naturally, and walked towards the room with a smile.

"This girl..."

Li Qiye chuckled and looked at the Goddess of War, saying, "Just say what you have to say."

"Well."

The goddess of war nodded and raised her hand to set up a soundproof barrier, preventing anyone around from hearing anything.

Seeing how serious she was, Li Qiye became curious. What exactly did Qin Linglong want to tell him that required such caution?
"People from the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Primordial Holy Land, and the Myriad Demon Palace have already infiltrated the Imperial Mausoleum City of the Great Zhou Dynasty. We don't know what they're planning to do yet."

"Their large-scale conflict in the northern frontier was a smokescreen, intended to lure the powerful figures from the Imperial Mausoleum City away..."

The female warrior repeated exactly what Qin Linglong had told her.

Upon hearing this, Li Qiye fell into deep thought.

In the original work, none of these events actually occurred, not even the chaos in the northern frontier.

Furthermore, factions like the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Primordial Holy Land, and the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons are not from the same book.

But the real world has appeared, and it has changed so much.

What exactly is in the imperial mausoleum city of the Great Zhou Dynasty that warrants such a large-scale operation?

"These three super powers have joined forces and caused such a commotion in the Northern Frontier. If they have any premeditated plans for the Imperial Mausoleum City, then what they want must be enormous."

Li Qiye briefly recalled the plot of the original work, and the only valuable thing he mentioned was the Great Dao Stone Tablet!
There's also a Dragon Spring Blood Pool!
However, he has already drained the Dragon Spring Blood Pool!
But these two things are not worth the great effort these three superpowers have put in.

The fact that the three major forces have such a strong motive in the northern border region, and their purpose is to pursue these two things, makes no sense at all!

There are one or two imperial-level divine weapons in the palace. Is that what they're after?

Which superpower doesn't have an Emperor-level divine weapon?
This world, a fusion of multiple novels, is quite complex.

"By the way, why did Qin Linglong come to tell me this?"

"Shouldn't we tell her grandfather first, and then General Guozhu tell my father?"

Li Qiye pondered for a moment, his mind filled with doubts.

Tell her what role the tenth prince plays.

If this is true, then logically we should tell his father, so that we can find all the people planted by the three super powers as quickly as possible.

"I have no idea about that."

The female war goddess shook her head and said, "I have already told you Qin Linglong's original words, and she also instructed that this matter must not be known to any more than three people besides her."

Li Qiye: "..."

Is she stuck? But how did Qin Linglong find out about this?
Judging from her appearance, she doesn't seem to know anything about this.

Even if we knew, that person should be the Qin Butcher, the Grand General stationed in the capital!

Judging from the situation, General Guozhu probably doesn't know, otherwise Qin Linglong wouldn't have given such instructions.

"so……"

"They've already traveled on a different timeline from Li Yueyao's future?"

Li Qiye thought to himself.

"besides……"

Just then, the female war goddess suddenly pointed a finger at the old man's still-uncollected corpse not far away and said:
"He should be one of the three major forces who are lurking in the Imperial Mausoleum City, but Li Yueyao has seen through his identity."

Li Qiye looked at the headless corpse over there and couldn't help but sigh.

He really wants to give up; now he spends all his time either at Qinglian Academy or at home.

But why do so many things keep coming to us?

To be honest, the Seven Nights Palace is so beautiful, but that headless corpse lying there is a real eyesore.

Li Qiye couldn't bear to watch any longer. He flicked his finger, and a ball of flame flew out, burning the old man's corpse to ashes.

"It really is the Southern Ming Fire!"

A strange light flashed in the eyes of the goddess of war; she truly lived up to her reputation as the most powerful and yang flame in the world.

In the blink of an eye, the corpse was burned to ashes.

The old man was a powerful expert at the seventh level of the Enlightenment Realm. Although he had already perished, the strength of his physical body was still undeniable.

Even without spiritual power, ordinary flames cannot burn it to ashes.

Even the Goddess of War doesn't think her War God body can withstand the scorching of the Southern Bright Fire, at least not yet.

Of course, once her War God Body reaches its peak, things will be hard to say.

"Thank you for making this trip, you've worked hard."

Li Qiye looked at the female war goddess and asked with a smile, "How is Linglong doing lately?"

"Before I came to tell you this, she had just survived a carefully planned assassination attempt by the enemy."

The Goddess of War simply said, "But now that she's with Qin Rentu, as long as she doesn't run around, she'll be fine."

"Assassination?"

Upon hearing this, Li Qiye frowned.

After thinking for a moment, he guessed the reason and couldn't help but sneer, "Hmph, their wishful thinking is really clever!"

These people actually wanted to use such despicable means to influence Qin Rentu's state of mind.

This would allow General Guozhu to focus all his attention on the northern frontier battlefield, fighting them to the death there, thus neglecting the Imperial Mausoleum City.

Once Qin Linglong is successfully assassinated, their goal will be achieved.

However, the price to pay for doing so is enormous. Not to mention that Qin Rentu is a powerful expert at the ninth level of the Void Realm, and is now infinitely close to the Saint Realm.

Even if he were just an ordinary Void Realm expert, if he were to act without restraint, he would be enough to terrify the geniuses of the three super powers, unless they stayed in their respective powers forever.

With Qin Linglong's demise, Qin Rentu will undoubtedly slaughter all the prodigies of these three major forces to accompany her to her death.

These three major powers couldn't possibly be unaware of this principle, yet they still chose to do it that way.

That only shows that their ambitions are enormous, to the point where they are willing to pay any price.

What exactly are they after?

"Does Father Emperor know about this?"

Li Qiye's mind raced, countless thoughts flashing through his head.
