Film & TV: Public Enemy of Justice

Even the Primordial Celestial Venerable was afraid of death, so he scrambled to his feet and fled from the Execution Platform.

The scene from just now kept replaying in my mind.

"The Heavenly Emperor is dead..."

"The Heavenly Emperor has been murdered..."

He finally couldn't hold back and cried out.

Chapter Forty: Forcing Others to Do What They Want

But it was as if no one heard any of it.

Yuanshi Tianzun passed by many people, but no one listened to him. He gradually despaired until a general appeared before him.

He rushed over and shouted, "The Heavenly Emperor is dead! The Heavenly Emperor is dead..."

As Yuanshi Tianzun roared, he saw the Heavenly Emperor emerge from behind the general.

The Heavenly Emperor frowned, clearly displeased: "When did I die?"

Yuanshi Tianzun's face turned ashen, but he clearly saw that the one Lin Yaoxie pushed off the Execution Platform was none other than the Heavenly Emperor.

But if that's the case, then what about the person standing in front of me right now?

Yuanshi Tianzun swallowed hard, then said in a panic, "No, you must be fake. You are a fake Heavenly Emperor. The real Heavenly Emperor jumped off the Execution Platform long ago."

He wanted to capture the Heavenly Emperor and take him prisoner, but he was stopped by the general in front of him.

"How dare you speak to the Heavenly Emperor like this! Guards, drag this senile old man away and subject him to the punishment of heavenly lightning."

"No, no, you must believe me, that Heavenly Emperor is fake, that Heavenly Emperor is fake, he will kill you..." He screamed desperately, but no one heard him.

The numbness and pain slowly spread through my body, but my mind remained clear, and it was no use trying to faint.

"Ugh...ah..."

The sounds of pain emanated from the Shangqing Mirror and could be heard clearly in every corner.

Lin Yaoxie sat on the stone bench, slowly observing the Primordial Heavenly Venerable who was in the illusion.

Many people were gathered around, but they were all kneeling and no one dared to utter a sound.

Lin Yaoxie was waiting for someone this time.

After a while, a person wearing a dark green long robe finally walked over slowly.

"Release my master." Ye Hua walked up to Lin Yaoxie, his words devoid of any respect.

"Just a mere brat, and he dares to speak to me like that?" Lin Yaoxie exerted his strength, causing Yuanshi Tianzun beside him to cry out in even greater pain: "You must understand, your master, Yuanshi Tianzun, just swallowed my Dream Pill. His dreams are now under my control, and everything he suffers in his dreams will still affect his body. Therefore, your every move will affect your master, understand? Ye Hua?"

Ye Hua frowned, somewhat resentful: "If that's the case, then whatever you want to do, whatever your grievances are, come at me. Why do you have to drag my master into it?"

"Don't worry, I won't kill him." Lin Yaoxie stood up, walked around Ye Hua once, and then slowly said, "I came here today because I want you to stay with me for a few days."

"Since you don't understand, let me put it simply. I want you to obey me and become my slave. But don't worry, it will only last three days. As long as you behave like my dog ​​for these three days, I will give you your freedom. Furthermore, I can guarantee that your master, Yuanshi Tianzun, will not die."

"You're dreaming! What you're saying is far too arrogant." Ye Hua raised his sword and pointed it at Lin Yaoxie, but dared not touch him.

“If I die, your master will certainly not survive either. The dream will shatter, and your master will not only not return, but will also be scattered and never reincarnated.”

Ye Hua's hands trembled; he was truly unwilling to do it. Lin Yaoxie lightly gripped the sword tip and slowly moved it away: "How about I give you some time to consider? But you must know, the longer you delay, the more your master's fate will change. I can't guarantee whether he'll live or die..."

"I agree..."

"Alright, since that's the case, then kneel down now and bark like a dog for me, as a token of your agreement? Hmm?"

Everyone around immediately turned their attention to Ye Hua, who felt incredibly awkward.

He was, after all, the crown prince...

"Haha, never mind, it won't do me any good anyway. I have other things to do. You go to the South China Sea and wait for me. When you come back, I'll arrange what you need to do."

Ye Hua responded calmly and then left.

Lin Yaoxie didn't have much interest in Ye Hua; his main goal was simply to bring him back to the South Sea. Now, he also needed to make a trip to the North Sea to find Shao Xing.

When they reached the upper part of the North Sea, Yuanshi Tianzun had slowly awakened. He looked around at everything; the illusion had already changed, and Lin Yaoxie had also appeared.

"Awake? How was your dream?"

Yuanshi Tianzun also realized that everything he had experienced before was a dream, but the pain was real.

He wanted to break the seal and leave, but the wound kept reopening, causing him excruciating pain.

"You think you can defeat me? You can't break that seal, so don't torture yourself." After a bitter laugh, he simply entered the North Sea. After passing the Crystal Palace, the Primordial Celestial Venerable was puzzled: "Why did you come here now?"

"Didn't you say you wanted to kill the Heavenly Emperor? I've been thinking about it. Although Ye Hua has grown up, I still want to prove my strength. Killing the Heavenly Emperor is easy, just like I can easily injure Dong Hua. But I'm just too powerful, so I can't find any sense of accomplishment in fighting anymore. Instead, I prefer to slowly scheme against you righteous gods."

Yuanshi Tianzun swallowed hard, feeling that Lin Yaoxie was truly terrifying: "You really are a devil."

"Now it seems that it is indeed so. Moreover, I disappeared for tens of thousands of years, so you all thought I was dead. Your sudden appearance before must have surprised you quite a bit."

Tens of thousands of years ago, he had spent a month in trepidation. But Lin Yaoxie never came. Several years, hundreds, even thousands of years passed, and Lin Yaoxie still hadn't returned. Moreover, some said that Lin Yaoxie had gone to Huangque Mountain and never came out. So he assumed at the time that Lin Yaoxie had died there.

Since the demon is dead, he didn't reveal (Dede Zhao's) words, fearing panic in the Heavenly Realm. Moreover, Lin Yaoxie is already dead.

Ironically, Lin Yaoxie's words caused Yuanshi Tianzun to be terrified for a long time. Just when he was finally at ease, Lin Yaoxie suddenly appeared.

But who knows that these tens of thousands of years are nothing more than a fleeting moment in Lin Yaoxie's eyes.

"Let the Primordial Celestial Venerable disappear."

"Yes, reduce magic points by 40000."

Yuanshi Tianzun was unaware that he was no longer visible to anyone. He would occasionally look around and beg for help, but those people simply ignored him.

Lin Yaoxie entered the main hall and saw two or three people talking, with Shaoxing among them.

Shao Xing saw Lin Yaoxie at a glance and hurried over: "So it's Young Master Lin. It must have been a long time since we last met. However, my husband is not in Beihai today, so I may have to disappoint you."

Chapter 41 No Way Out

Lin Yaoxie shook his head: "I'm not here to find the Water Lord, I'm here to find you."

Shao Xing looked around, still surprised: "Young Master Lin saved me in those mountains back then, and I was extremely grateful. However... although I have become what I am now, in every aspect, I am still not as good as Young Master Lin. I don't know what kind of help Young Master Lin needs from me. As long as I can help, I will be willing to do anything."

With a sly smile, Lin Yaoxie put his arm around Shaoxing's shoulder and slowly approached. Shaoxing immediately took a step back, trying to keep a distance of two steps from Lin Yaoxie, before secretly glancing at the others: "Why don't we go inside and talk?"

"Okay."

Lin Yaoxie strode in and unceremoniously poured himself some tea. This made Shao Xing, who was standing there, seem like an outsider.

You are the true master of this Crystal Palace, why be so reserved? There are no outsiders here.

After hearing this, Shao Xing slowly sat down and took a sip of tea: "Young master's skills are truly excellent, but... I wonder what brings you here this time?"

Setting down his teacup, Lin Yaoxie said calmly, "I'm here today to help you."

"Help me?" 117

"Of course, back when you were just a little snake, that water god did his best to protect you. It's a pity that he should have been sitting in the position of the Heavenly Emperor, but because of you, he is now just a small water god of the North Sea. It's really pitiful."

Shaoxing already felt guilty about this matter, and now that it was brought up again, she couldn't help but keep her head down.

"However, I've come to talk to you about this today because I've come up with a way to make the current Heavenly Emperor step down and let your husband ascend the throne. What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Shao Xing's expression changed, and he quickly said, "Young Master, please don't talk nonsense. If someone with ulterior motives hears this, it will not benefit either of us."

Now, apart from the now-hidden Yuanshi Tianzun, there is no one else left.

Although Yuanshi Tianzun could see all of this, he knew that among these people, apart from Lin Yaoxie, no one could see him or even hear his voice...

"Just tell me if you want to return the throne to your husband, and if you want to live by his side without doubt or guilt. That's enough. If you agree, I can do it for you."

Shao Xing looked at Lin Yaoxie in surprise, feeling that perhaps this matter wasn't so far-fetched after all. But...

"But……"

"Don't worry, you don't need to get involved in this. You will receive the news directly and be allowed to succeed the North Sea Lord as the Heavenly Emperor. I will handle all the back-and-forth. Don't think this is a windfall, because I also have something to ask you."

Swallowing hard, Shao Xing asked in a flustered voice, "What is it, young master?"

"What do you know about me?" Lin Yaoxie smiled and slowly approached Shaoxing, then gradually removed Shaoxing's outer garment.

Shao Xing struggled slightly and took two steps back: "Shao Xing doesn't understand what you mean, young master. Please just say it..."

"Now that you have achieved your goal, young master, surely you can also accomplish what we discussed last night?"

"It depends on your performance."

Lin Yaoxie stood up and spread his hands: "Help me change my clothes."

"Sui-kun is truly blessed." He joked twice, only to see Shao Xing's resentful eyes: "In that case, can you finish what you were doing before?"

“Of course,” Lin Yaoxie said, then waved his hand again, and the Yuanshi Tianzun, who had been hiding in the room, slowly appeared.

Upon seeing the Primordial Celestial Venerable, Shao Xing's expression completely changed. She lay despairing on the bed, only to hear Lin Yaoxie slowly say, "The Heavenly Emperor's throne will be your husband's, but the Empress's position… I'm truly afraid that some people might let something slip, otherwise…"

"Tell me, what else do you want?"

“I’ve said it before, Water Lord is a blessed man,” Lin Yaoxie said smugly. “First, after inheriting the throne of the Heavenly Emperor, he handed over all the power of the North Sea and the other three seas to me. Your husband was a prince before, so I believe his words carry a lot of weight in this sea. This shouldn’t be a big deal.”

Second, you must not reveal this matter to your husband in the slightest. Otherwise, I will let you know that some things, given by others, can also be taken back by those same people. Third, in the future, you will also have to obey me.

Shao Xing's expression changed, and he immediately flew into a rage, flipping the table: "You've gone too far! How could you make such a request? You didn't say that to me yesterday!"

"Yesterday you traded your body for the throne of the Heavenly Emperor, and today I'm trading your performance last night for something else. If you refuse, I'll have the Primordial Celestial Venerable proclaim yesterday's words throughout the four seas and eight wastelands. Do you think you'll still have any face left? The former Second Prince's Consort and the Strange Man of the Heavenly Court..."

“Go ahead and say it, just say it all. As long as I can take his place as the Heavenly Emperor, I won’t care about anything else.”

Shao Xing was furious, while Lin Yaoxie grabbed Shao Xing's chin and said fiercely, "It seems you've misunderstood. You think that by sacrificing yourself and your reputation, you can restore your husband's position as the Heavenly Emperor? You're far too naive."

"Heh, if you were to die like this, not only would I not give him the throne of Heaven, but just considering what happened, do you think his reputation would be preserved? He gave up his position as crown prince because he fell in love with a little snake, and now that little snake is with someone else. I'm afraid he'd find it incredibly shameful..."

Shao Xing's face turned ashen; he hadn't expected that every step of this was part of Lin Yaoxie's scheme. He released his grip, and Shao Xing could only helplessly slump onto the couch.

In other words, now that you've taken this step, there's no turning back.

She really was tricked. She really was tricked.

Indeed, she now had nowhere to retreat and could only listen to the words of this old acquaintance who was now unrecognizable.

Chapter Forty-Two: The Mysterious Woman's Scheme

What exactly made him agree to those conditions?

Two lines of tears streamed down his face. Lin Yaoxie waved his hand, concealing Yuanshi Tianzun once more, and then slowly departed: "I will come again in three days. I hope you will not disappoint me then."
