The mastermind behind the scenes starting with the calamity of all races

Then, Su Yu shouted to the Human Emperor, "Human Emperor, are we still fighting? If not, I'm going back to sleep."

After listening, Yun Jie rubbed his temples. This kid, he really just gave up.

Then, Su Yu's voice rang in Yun Jie's ears: "Grandpa, this is not my fault. It was supposed to be the last battle, but it seems... it can't be fought."

Yun Jie rolled his eyes at him, "If there's no fight, there's no fight. What are you so happy about? Didn't you want to find the Time Master and King Wen? They're both inside the Heavenly Gate now. If you don't improve your strength, how are you going to get there! Even the Lord of Rules is probably at the bottom of the hierarchy inside the Heavenly Gate."

Su Yu spread his hands and said helplessly, "Why don't you go and talk to the Human Emperor, Grandpa? I can't beat him anyway, so what I say won't make a difference."

Moreover, for some reason, the Emperor still harbored a trace of hostility towards him.

Su Yu didn't say those words aloud.

Yun Jie couldn't help but complain in his heart. That wasn't hostility at all; it was clearly the way his brother-in-law was scrutinizing his brother-in-law!

Yun Jie didn't know what to say to Su Yu, who was emotionally clueless, and he didn't want to give him any advice.

In fact, Yun Jie himself is also like that, but he doesn't admit it; he thinks he knows a lot.

Suddenly, Yun Jie thought of a question.

If Su Yu and Xingyue really get together, what should the Human Emperor call him, Grandpa?

Okay, Yun Jie realized he was overthinking it. In the end, everyone would probably just stick to their own opinions, otherwise it would be too chaotic.

So it seems that living a long life isn't necessarily a good thing; at the very least, it can easily lead to confusion about generational relationships.

Just as Yun Jie was lost in thought, the Human Emperor was taken aback when he heard Su Yu's shout.

Whether to fight or not is indeed a question, but what's with this "go back to sleep" nonsense? Haven't you ever had a good night's sleep?

Haven't you heard the saying, "Why sleep so much before death, when you'll have plenty of time to sleep after you die"?

It seems that the current generation of rulers lacks sufficient awareness.

Thinking this, the Human Emperor glanced at Xingyue behind him and thought to himself, "Little sister, what kind of taste do you have? Have you been in the Netherworld for too long and gone stupid?"

The Emperor was silent for a moment, then said, "Logically speaking, I shouldn't interfere in your battle; this is a matter for your generation, but..."

The Emperor looked at Bai Zhan and Yu Qing, and said in a deep voice, "However, one of them is, after all, a descendant of Yu. No matter what, it should be my responsibility to clean house! Also, Bai Zhan, you've done a great job, killing all the people I left behind. Tell me, should I avenge them?"

The Human Emperor did not mention the Ninth Tide. The Ninth Tide was too far in the past, and it was not his tide, so it was better not to mention it.

But the mere act of seeking revenge is enough to absolve him of the death penalty for a hundred battles.

Bingku, Danyu, and others remained loyal to him until their deaths. Even if they misjudged people, the Emperor still had a duty to seek justice for them.

After saying that, the Emperor looked at Yun Jie and Su Yu and said in a deep voice, "So, leave them to me. That's why I rushed back half a day early."

Yun Jie's eyes flickered slightly; he knew that the Emperor's words were directed at him.

Su Yu shrugged and looked at Yun Jie with an indifferent expression. "Grandpa, you decide."

Yun Jie pondered for a moment and then said, "Withdraw the troops."

Everyone's faces fell. They're not going to fight anymore?

Tianmie almost jumped out to object, but seeing the Human Emperor and the others, he still didn't dare to speak.

"Great, I'm going back to sleep now."

Su Yu didn't care how the Human Emperor planned to deal with Bai Zhan and the Sin Clan; all he knew was that he could finally rest.

After saying that, Su Yu ignored everyone else and ran off.

Apart from Su Yu, the others stayed behind, all wanting to see how the Human Emperor planned to deal with Bai Zhan and the Sin Clan.

The Emperor gestured to Yun Jie with his eyes, then said to the King of Light, "Take them down."

The Emperor does not intend to personally deal with the Hundred Battles and the Sinners; there is no need for it. With his subordinates present, he can let them handle things; there is no need for him to do everything himself.

The Ming King nodded without saying anything. He took out an array plate and threw it to Bai Zhan and the Sin Clan.

In the blink of an eye, an array enveloped Bai Zhan, Yu Qing, and the others, sealing them inside.

During this process, Bai Zhan, Yu Qing, and the others did not resist; resistance would only have hastened their deaths.

Inside the formation, Bai Zhan's eyes were filled with complex emotions. At this moment, he didn't know how to describe his feelings; even saying he was experiencing a mix of emotions wouldn't quite capture it.

Suddenly, the Human Emperor glanced at Chaos, chuckled, and said, "Interesting, very interesting. Another Ruler has actually emerged."

"Bai Zhan, is that your son? His bloodline is somewhat similar to yours."

As he spoke, the Human Emperor pointed his finger out of the chaos.

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhan's expression changed. Zhou Ji is back?

not good!

He was about to tell Zhou Ji to run away when, unexpectedly, the Human Emperor had already disappeared from the spot.

Rumble...

The sounds of fighting could be heard from the chaos.

No, it can't be called a contest; it was more of a one-sided affair.

Zhou Ji was no match for the Human Emperor. Just as the Human Emperor was about to capture Zhou Ji, Yun Jie's voice entered his ears: "Let him go, beat him into the underground gate."

The Emperor's movements slowed by a fraction of a second. With a hint of doubt, he transmitted his voice to Yun Jie, "Is this your person?"

Yun Jie: "Not yet."

The Emperor's eyes flickered; he understood. Yun Jie had probably left some kind of backup plan on the other party. It wasn't yet, which meant the time wasn't right, and Yun Jie had a bigger scheme in mind.

Having figured everything out, the Human Emperor casually slapped Zhou Ji towards the Earth Gate, as if he were swatting a fly. With a single slap, Zhou Ji was sent flying hundreds of miles away.

No one suspected anything; they all thought the Emperor was just playing a trick on Zhou Ji, and at most they would just complain about the Emperor's perverse sense of humor.

Bai Zhan's face turned green. He suspected that the Emperor was taking his anger out on Zhou Ji because of him.

In front of everyone, the Human Emperor slapped Zhou Ji in front of the Earth Gate. Then, the Human Emperor did not make any further moves, but instead looked at Zhou Ji with his hands behind his back.

Zhou Ji wiped his mouth, stretched his numb body, glanced at the Human Emperor, then looked back at the Earth Gate. He seemed to understand something.

It seems that the Human Emperor did not intend to kill him, but rather to drive him into the Earth Gate. But... why is that?

What is the Emperor's plan?

He certainly wouldn't intend to spare his life in exchange for his surrender and then let him enter the underground gate to gather intelligence for him.

This possibility only flashed through Zhou Ji's mind before he dismissed it, because it was simply impossible.

Unable to understand, Zhou Ji temporarily suppressed his doubts and looked at the Earth Gate behind him. Now that the Human Emperor had returned, their plans had completely failed. Therefore, he had no choice but to enter the Earth Gate.

Since the Emperor didn't stop him, Zhou Ji had no reason to hesitate. Seeing the crack widen considerably, he plunged in headfirst, and even though he was bleeding profusely, he didn't even flinch.

Soon, Zhou Ji's figure disappeared inside the door.

"Your Majesty, this..."

Mingwang and the others looked at the Human Emperor with some confusion, not understanding why he would let the other party go.

The Emperor smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just suddenly had a whim to let him go in and scout things out."

The emperor made up a reason without explaining much to the crowd, nor could he explain it; he was simply going with the flow.

In the crowd, Yun Jie glanced at the Earth Gate and thought to himself, "Ancestor of Humanity, I'm counting on you to strengthen Zhou Ji's physical body from now on. Otherwise, not only will Ji Tian not dare to descend, but I won't dare either."

The Ancestor of Humanity was a master of the physical body, so it was perfect for him to help Zhou Ji strengthen his body. Besides, this was originally a deal between him and Ji Tian, ​​and Yun Jie was just trying to reap the benefits halfway through.

Then, Yun Jie's figure quietly disappeared.

Looking around the crowd from the Human Emperor Dynasty, he noticed that Yun Jie had disappeared. He then turned to the Ming King and said, "Take them back to the Human Realm first, and we'll proceed with the trial later. I have some other matters to attend to now."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Emperor vanished.

Looking at the empty space, Ming Wang felt a little ashamed. He had just returned, where had he gone again?

Subsequently, the Ming King directed the crowd to escort Bai Zhan, Yu Qing, and the others to the human realm.

King Ming stared in the direction of Chaos Mountain, and after thinking for a while, he instructed, "King Xuan, go to Chaos Mountain and bring those humans back."

In any case, ordinary people are innocent; they have no choice. As for how things will be arranged in the end, let's see what the Emperor thinks.

······

Human realm.

No sooner had Yun Jie returned than the Human Emperor caught up with him.

"Fellow Daoist Yun."

"The Human Emperor".

The two greeted each other.

The Human Emperor glanced at Yun Jie briefly, then smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Yun, you don't need to be so polite. You can just call me Xingyu from now on."

Yun Jie did not refuse and nodded, "Okay."

"Brother Xingyu, what business do you have with me?"

The fact that the Human Emperor suddenly abandoned Bai Zhan and the others to come looking for him must mean something. As for what it was, Yun Jie had a vague idea. He wouldn't say it was all there, but he had at least a pretty good idea.

The Emperor smiled upon hearing this, looked around, and said, "How about we find another place to talk?"

Yun Jie chuckled and said, "Alright, let's go to my residence then, Brother Xingyu, please."

The back garden of the Great Xuan King's Mansion.

Beneath the small pavilion, two peerless experts sat facing each other.

Steam rises from the stone table, filling the air with the aroma of tea.

The Emperor spoke first, "I wonder what Brother Yun's opinion is on the Three Gates?"
