In the world of "Covering the Sky," my cultivation technique is not right.
Chapter 120 What a huge game of chess!
Chapter 120 What a grand scheme!
"You all get out." Yan Ruyu glanced at the demon race's prodigies, her clear voice echoing in the hall.
"Princess." The demon prodigies looked at each other, puzzled.
"I have something to say to the Holy Son of Yao Guang and the Holy Body of the Human Race, concerning our ancestor, the Azure Emperor..."
""
Now that things have come to this point, what else can the demons say? They're talking about their own ancestors, that's their own business.
Thus, amidst cries of "Take your leave!", the demon prodigies departed the main hall one by one.
When Jin Yan, Ku Zhu, and Bai Feng, the three prodigies of the demon race, arrived at the gate, they all glanced at the Holy Son of Yao Guang and the Holy Body of the human race sitting in the upper seats. Some had gloomy expressions, while others had indifferent ones, but they were all definitely thinking about something.
Qin Yao glanced at Yan Ruyu, then at Ye Fan in front of her, her brows furrowed with worry, fearing a conflict between the two.
She leaned close to Ye Fan's ear and whispered, "Speak nicely to Her Highness the Princess. With the Holy Son of Yao Guang here, you won't suffer any losses. After the discussion is over, come find me in the side hall. I have some news for you."
Ye Fan felt a fragrance waft over, and as they rubbed their necks together, he became somewhat dazed, but quickly regained his senses. He cursed the vixen under his breath, then gave a cold "hmm." He knew what was important and wouldn't let a female demon disturb his Dao heart.
Seeing this, a hint of smugness flashed deep in Qin Yao's eyes. She lifted the hem of her skirt with both hands and quietly retreated.
Yan Ruyu looked at Hei Huang and Tu Fei and asked directly, "These two?"
"I have to go out too?" Black Emperor pointed at himself with a large black paw, looking incredulous.
Ye Fan said directly, "Black Emperor and Tu Fei are both my good friends."
Hearing this, Tu Fei, who was about to get up, was moved and sat back down.
The Black Emperor shook his head, quite pleased with Ye Fan's words: "That's right, I am his benefactor."
Ye Fan's lips twitched. He really couldn't see what was so valuable about this big black dog; it was clearly a menace.
He subconsciously overlooked the fact that it was because the Black Emperor led the way that he had the opportunity to obtain the complete Western Emperor Scripture, and only thought it was because of Lü Yao.
Lü Yao said, "Princess Yan, you may say whatever you wish to say."
Yan Ruyu looked at Lü Yao and Ye Fan, pondering, and slowly organized her thoughts: "I know Pang Bo is a good friend of the Holy Son and the Holy Body, but the nineteenth generation descendant of the Azure Emperor is also a very important figure in our demon race... The human race has an imperial son, but the demon race has no imperial offspring. He will be the only candidate to compete with other races and forces."
""
"So whether I like it or not, the Flood Dragon King, the Peacock King, and other demon kings will support him in possessing Pang Bo's body and obtaining a body with the bloodline of a demon god..."
'
"Unless there is another way to obtain a body stronger than the bloodline of the demon god..."
Before Yan Ruyu could finish speaking, Ye Fan couldn't hold back any longer. His sword-like eyebrows shot up, and his eyes flashed with coldness.
He interrupted, "Possessing another's body violates the laws of nature and human ethics, and will likely bring about its own downfall. The demon race has profound foundations, and great demons possess skills that rival creation and comprehend the secrets of heaven. Can't they see this clearly? Release Pang Bo; I want to take him away!"
Although Lü Yao did not speak, he nodded slightly in agreement.
Isn't their retribution just you, Ye Fan? And isn't your retribution sitting right here?
In the cultivation world, it is generally considered natural for the strong to bully the weak, and few people find it wrong. Otherwise, the Ji family, the Jiang family, and the Yin-Yang Sect would not have been chasing after Ye Fan.
But Heaven has its own way, and whether there is cause and effect or retribution is a matter that the Buddhist land of the Western Desert has studied most deeply. Lü Yao has not studied the Great Dao of Cause and Effect, so he dares not speak recklessly.
However, the retribution for this matter came very quickly for the descendants of the Azure Emperor. It didn't take hundreds or thousands of years; in just four years, two of the Three Evils of the Big Dipper appeared, directly killing the nineteenth-generation descendant of the Azure Emperor.
Leaving aside Lü Yao, Ye Fan alone was capable of wreaking havoc on the Eastern Wilderness demon race.
Even now, Lü Yao has no idea that Ye Fan carries a nest of God-Slaying Insects with him, or even whether there are any slumbering Half-Saints in the nest. Nobody knows, but the two Insect Kings at the nest entrance are enough.
Yan Ruyu's nostrils twitched slightly, her eyes fixed on her mouth and nose, letting Ye Fan's question go in one ear and out the other.
Pang Bo will definitely not let him go unless the Holy Son of Yao Guang personally takes action and summons the resources of the Yao Guang Holy Land and the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron.
Ye Fan is not qualified.
Yan Ruyu looked at Lü Yao with her beautiful eyes and said slowly, "The Holy Body is used to being a rogue cultivator, so it is hard for him to understand. But I suppose the Holy Son of Yaoguang, being a successor of a great power, can understand. This matter is not something that Ruyu can decide."
The nineteenth-generation descendant sees Pang Bo's demon god bloodline as his reliance for vying for the path to the emperor. He wants to recreate his ancestor's glory and defy the heavens to prove his Dao. He will never give up. Even if I bring this up, he will consider me an enemy, and even the Flood Dragon King will interfere.
Lu Yao shook his head and said calmly, "He cannot attain enlightenment."
Yan Ruyu looked at Lü Yao, astonished: "Why?"
Lu Yao stared into her eyes, speaking softly, but his confidence exploded like thunder in Yan Ruyu's ears: "Because the throne of the Great Emperor belongs to me."
"This..." Yan Ruyu's mind was in turmoil upon hearing these extremely confident, even arrogant, words.
However, she had to admit that the nineteenth-generation descendant did not even have a physical body and needed to possess another body, while the Holy Son of Yaoguang had extraordinary combat power and profound cultivation, and seemed to have gone further on the path to becoming a Great Emperor.
Yan Ruyu remained silent, and for a moment the hall fell silent.
Ye Fan's feet were covered in wine and broken plates, a complete mess, but no maids came in to clean it up, leaving it to become sticky.
His saccharine sea was like an active volcano, its divine power flickering, ready to erupt at any moment.
Ye Fan was waiting for Yan Ruyu's reply. She was a princess of the demon race, with a supreme status. She must still have some face in front of the Azure Dragon King and his nineteenth generation descendant.
However, Lü Yao did not think so. The demon race values strength more than the human race. Coincidentally, Yan Ruyu's strength was a bit weak, so she would not have much say in the nineteenth generation descendant.
It was only because of the Azure Dragon King that the others, out of respect for the Azure Emperor, and under the banner of Yan Ruyu's revival of the demon race, were willing to listen to a few words from her.
After a long silence, Yan Ruyu's voice rang out in the hall: "Could we try a different approach?"
Yan Ruyu still didn't take Ye Fan's thoughts that seriously. With his ancient and useless body, he couldn't even reach the Four Extremes, so there was no need to pay too much attention to him. As for nurturing the Emperor's Heart, if she didn't want to make things too ugly, she could have just imprisoned Ye Fan directly.
Moreover, even without the Holy Body, others can still nurture it. If the quality is lower, then more people can be replaced, and quantity will prevail.
"Princess." Lü Yao gestured to Ye Fan with his eyes, gently shaking his head to signal him to be patient.
Yan Ruyu said, "My idea is, if we can persuade the nineteenth-generation descendant to leave Pang Bo's soul behind so you can take it away, could this matter be resolved?"
As she said this, she felt a little uneasy. After all, the bloodline of the demon god was something that could only be encountered by chance, and it was no less than the divine body of the human race, and even slightly stronger.
As expected, Lü Yao refused: "Pang Bo's cultivation is shallow, and his soul cannot remain outside his body for long, lest it dissipate."
Moreover, his body possesses the bloodline of a demon god, the demon race knows best how precious that is. If he were to enter my Yao Guang Holy Land, he would surely become a candidate for holy son, second only to me in status.
"And the previous Holy Son," Lü Yao added in his mind.
With his ancestral bloodline and the Nine Wonders Elixir of Immortality as a foundation, Pang Bo could easily reach the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor by taking a couple more bites of the Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree.
How could an old monster like you have your body removed?
Even without obtaining the Nine Slashes of the Demon Emperor from the nineteenth generation descendant of the Demon Emperor, Ye Fan and Lü Yao could still get other Demon Emperor scriptures for Pang Bo.
If all else fails, there are still the Xuanwu Ancient Emperor and the White Tiger Daoist in the forbidden area. After Ye Zi achieves mastery, he can go and ask them directly. I don't believe those two won't give them to him.
Yan Ruyu had already anticipated this outcome and said with a wry smile, "Ruyu has no other solution for the time being, but the nineteenth generation descendant is in seclusion in the Hall of Immortality, and no one can disturb him. Even if I don't care, the Azure Dragon King will not allow you to act recklessly."
Yan Ruyu's dark hair shimmered with light, swaying as she shook her head and exuding fragrance.
Lu Yao could sense that Yan Ruyu had no ill intentions towards him. Caught between the demon race and him, she had no choice but to side with the nineteenth-generation descendant of the Azure Emperor.
After a moment's thought, Lü Yao asked, "Could we meet the nineteenth-generation descendant?"
He was confident that once they met, he could kill the primordial spirit of the nineteenth-generation descendant without anyone noticing, allowing Pang Bo to usurp the position and become active within the demon race's forces as the nineteenth-generation descendant.
To avoid Ye Fan and the Black Emperor having to search for materials and break the formation outside the Hall of Immortality, thus wasting time.
Instead of wasting time, why not go to the various stone workshops in the Northern Holy City and cut out some good items? Maybe you can even find a few ancient scriptures.
Yan Ruyu was surprised that Lü Yao only wanted to see the 19th generation descendant and did not make any outrageous demands, so she replied, "I need to convey this to the 19th generation descendant, but as long as Pang Bo's body is not taken away, everything can be discussed."
"Then I will stay in your esteemed place for a few more days to see if I can meet the true face of the nineteenth generation descendant of the Azure Emperor."
"Lu Yao..." Ye Fan listened from the side, his mouth half-open, then closed again.
He thought that instead of trusting these demons, he should forcefully storm the Hall of Immortality, snatch Pang Bo, and run away. He had the Green Copper Block and the Golden Cone, so he wasn't too afraid of the Chaos Green Lotus.
But he remembered that Lü Yao wasn't an honest man, and out of trust, he swallowed his words.
Lu Yao, however, was distracted by thinking about the relationship between Yan Ruyu and her nineteenth-generation descendant.
This is somewhat different from the relationship between Ji Zi and Ji Haoyue, because the nineteenth-generation descendant does not have suppressive cultivation and talent, so the relationship between the two is somewhat delicate.
Her nineteenth-generation descendant is also her ancestor... Once resurrected, she will likely have control over the Azure Emperor's heart and the Chaos Azure Lotus...
By handing over these two items, she lost her legitimacy as a demon princess, which would be difficult for Yan Ruyu, who desperately wanted to revive the demon race, to accept.
Therefore, what the demon princess Yan Ruyu was really thinking was unknown to others.
This was naturally just Lü Yao's guess, without any basis, and it wasn't even important to him.
The Azure Dragon King's Secret Realm is far inferior to a dragon's den or a tiger's lair like the Primordial Ancient Mine, or a forbidden land like the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, which is our own territory. There are no great opportunities there. We can just leave with Pang Bo in a few days.
If he hadn't been wary of the Chaos Green Lotus and the Azure Dragon King, and of the relationship between the Eastern Wilderness Demon Clan and the Yao Guang Holy Land, he would have already stormed in and robbed them.
Black Emperor remained silent, but his eyes darted around. He secretly transmitted his voice to Ye Fan: "Ye kid, don't be impatient. I don't think that Lu kid is a good person either; he's probably up to no good."
Upon hearing the Black Emperor's telepathic message, Ye Fan prepared to ask Lü Yao for clarification after leaving Yan Ruyu's palace.
If Lü Yao knew that the Black Emperor had slandered him as a bad person, he would probably have pulled out the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron and slammed it on Lü Yao's head right now.
Lu Yao stood up and bowed to Yan Ruyu: "Does Princess Yan have anything else to say? If not, we will take our leave and await news from the princess."
The little dragon king in green prepared a palace for them to rest in.
Lu Yao had a tall and slender figure, a face sculpted like jade, and deep, calm eyes like a lake without ripples under the sunlight.
In that instant, Yan Ruyu suddenly recalled the scene of him forcefully suppressing the avatar of the Old Peng King. She also thought of some anecdotes from the Eastern Wilderness over the past few months, and asked, almost as if possessed, "Ruyu has heard that the Holy Master of the Feng family intends to marry his princess to the Holy Son?"
???
Lu Yao raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself: Why is this woman asking this? Does a dignified demon princess have a hobby of gossip? Besides, I don't want to be associated with Feng Huang.
But she replied verbally, "Princess Yan, where did you hear these rumors? I have only met the Feng Clan princess once, and we have never spoken."
Yan Ruyu was secretly annoyed when she said this. What was wrong with her brain to ask such a question?
Because of Pang Bo, her relationship with the Holy Son of Yao Guang and the Holy Body of the Human Race is not as close now.
Then she heard Lü Yao deny it, and she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. Her eyebrows curved and a smile appeared: "It seems that the Holy Son rarely travels in the Eastern Wilderness, and in the last two days he has even entered the secret realm, so he rarely pays attention to the rumors in the Eastern Wilderness."
The rumors that circulated recently were rampant: the Holy Master of the Feng Clan greatly favored the Holy Son and had sent an elderly matriarch of the Feng Clan, who had not appeared in public for many years, to visit Yao Guang. Many people said it was for a marriage alliance.
What? Lu Yao felt a chill run down his spine.
Li Daoqing, you've played a very sophisticated game.
I was on the front lines, diligently cultivating myself to revitalize the Yao Guang Holy Land, enduring perilous situations, shedding blood and sacrificing my life, yet you betrayed me from the rear?
And sell it to the Feng family?
What benefits did you receive from the Feng family? Did the Feng family's Holy Master produce the ancient scriptures of Emperor Fuxi or Emperor Nuwa?
Be sure to share this with me!
Lu Yao frowned deeply and asked solemnly, "Is what Princess Yan said true?"
When Yan Ruyu saw Lü Yao lose his composure for the first time, she laughed and said, "They are all rumors, and it is impossible to prove their truth or falsehood. Once the Holy Son returns to Yao Guang, we will know the truth. But I think the probability of them being false is greater."
"I hope so." Lü Yao regained his composure and said, "In that case, we shall take our leave."
