After breaking up with my girlfriend, I became a Great Sage of the Demon Clan.

"The matter of the elixir of immortality is overseen by the deities of the Imperial Observatory. If I were to cut off the supply of the elixir of immortality, I'm afraid some of the deities in the Imperial Observatory would be displeased."

Zhou Yan countered with a question. (The character "岓" appears to be a placeholder or incomplete sentence.)

"Which deity would be displeased?" Hiss

Prince Ning's eyes darted around, thinking to himself, "These celestial beings from the Imperial Observatory can all summon wind and rain. No matter how powerful the enemy is, what can they possibly do to these gods?"

Prince Ning sighed.

"The facial features of the Imperial Observatory should be..." Jiu

Zhou Yan reached behind his back and, under the stunned gaze of Prince Ning, arranged the heads of the officials in charge of the Central Office, the Autumn Office, the Spring Office, the Summer Office, and the Winter Office one by one.

Honestly, if it weren't for the Grand Secretary supporting Prince Ning, he would have already knelt down. Qi

I was terrified.

"It was Prince Ning," he said in a trembling voice.

"Fifth, the facial features are upright..."

"You, you're not afraid of the Grand Eunuch..."

The Grand Supervisor is said to be a great immortal who is about to ascend to heaven. This person in front of me killed the Five Officials. Isn't he afraid of the Grand Supervisor's... retaliation...?

Zhou Yan took out the head of the Grand Eunuch, whose face was filled with disbelief, and casually tossed it toward Prince Ning.

After the head hit the ground, it rolled several times before finally reaching Prince Ning, where it even touched Prince Ning's boots.

Prince Ning lost his composure this time, and his knees buckled, causing him to kneel on the ground.

Zhou Yan walked out of the study and stood in front of the kneeling Prince Ning. Prince Ning looked up at Zhou Yan from bottom to top.

Zhou Yan reached out and touched the child's head, saying something meaningful.

"Be a good emperor in the future, don't be like your father."

Zhou Yan then looked at the Grand Secretary, the Junior Grand Secretary, and the two heads of the Embroidered Uniform Guard behind him.

"You should all be good officials and not think too much about unnecessary things."

Zhou Yan pointed to the sky.

"Heaven is watching."

"I'm watching too!"

The junior cabinet minister and the chief cabinet secretary clasped their hands and bowed in succession.

"I accept the order."

……

Weiyang Palace, Funing Palace.

That night, more than thirty Imperial Guards surrounded Funing Palace.

Zhao Wuji, playing the role of the Medicine Valley Goddess, touched Qi's chest, where his heart was pounding wildly.

It's just one last step away.

Zhao Wuji entered the current emperor's house.

Late at night, the emperor was still sitting cross-legged in his bedroom, breathing deeply.

Zhao Wuji waited in front of the emperor for a while until the emperor opened his eyes. Only then did Zhao Wuji walk towards the emperor. The emperor got up and waited for Zhao Wuji to get into bed before he climbed on top of him and began their lovemaking.

Outside the door, the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and the Deputy Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard stood together, both of them noticing the subtle expressions on their faces.

Fang Xiaoru reassured him.

"It's alright now. Once this is all over, we can..."

A hysterical scream came from the emperor's bedroom.

"You bitch, what are you doing?!"

"You've spent your whole life using women as furnaces and medicinal herbs. Have you ever thought that one day you might be drained of your yang energy to replenish your yin?"

"You slut! You slut!"

"Come on! Escort!"

Cries for help could be heard coming from inside the dormitory.

All the Imperial Guards looked at their commander, who shook his head.

Today, all the guards at Funing Palace have been replaced. They are all the absolute confidants of the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard. Without the Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard's approval, no one will move.

After several rounds of crackling and shattering sounds, the dormitory door creaked open, and Yao Gu, covered in blood and looking exhausted, walked out.

"Make way, make way, Zhou Gonggong is here!"

A sound came from afar.

Surrounded by the cabinet civil officials, Zhou Yan, dressed in eunuch's robes, stepped forward. The commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and Fang Xiaoru knelt on one knee respectfully.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, he has been poisoned by the elixir of immortality; all medicine is ineffective, and he has passed away."

Zhou Yan hummed in agreement, then asked Zhao Wuji, who was disguised as the Goddess of Medicine Valley.

"Dead?"

Zhao Wuji nodded blankly. Seven

Zhou Yan's expression changed, and he said resentfully.

"That damned Imperial Observatory, what kind of celestial elixir did they concoct? It poisoned the very emperor! How can such treacherous officials, who bring ruin to the country and its people, be allowed to swagger around so openly!"

The Prime Minister continued.

"Eunuch Zhou, I have committed twelve crimes against the Imperial Observatory. Please execute everyone in the Imperial Observatory, leaving no survivors!"

Zhou Yan liked civil officials who knew how to get things done. (Leng)

The other Grand Secretaries of the Cabinet also responded. (Seven)

"Eunuch Zhou, the Imperial Astronomical Bureau is using humans to make medicine, harming countless people. This violates the laws of Heaven and they should be executed!"

"I told you long ago that the Imperial Observatory was acting perversely, bringing disaster to the country and its people, and that Eunuch Zhou..."

"Could you please stop calling me father-in-law?"

Zhou Yan couldn't take it anymore. He was indeed wearing eunuch clothes, but did that mean he had to keep calling him "Eunuch Zhou"?

"Lord Zhou, give the order! Today is the day to restore the nation and bring righteousness to the court!"

"Actually, a court full of righteous people is not a good sign. Never mind, you wouldn't understand."

Zhou Yan always felt that it was somewhat abnormal for a eunuch to become the core of the civil officials and then be described by them as a court full of upright officials.

"Also, let Yaogu take over the task of eliminating the Imperial Observatory."

Zhou Yan spoke to the cabinet members around him.

"From now on, all the Black-Clad Guards will be under the command of Medicine Valley. You will all provide them with assistance."

The cabinet members all bowed to Zhou Yan.

"Here."

Zhao Wuji said sadly.

"Remember your promise."

Zhou Yan nodded.

His promise was simple: he would have Zhao Wuji lead the effort to wipe out all the remaining members of the Imperial Observatory. After the Imperial Observatory was thoroughly cleansed, Zhao Wuji would allow it to change its name and go preach wherever it wanted.

After finishing a few more small tasks, Zhou Yan left Weiyang Palace.

The next day, Zhou Yan, who was rushing towards Mount Li, had only been running for half an hour when he felt dizzy.

Darkness descends.

……

"Um, I..."

Zhou Yan opened his eyes, and a gentle light shone into them.

Zhou Yan rubbed his head and got up.

"Squeak..."

There was the sound of a door opening behind me.

Zhou Yan turned his head in the direction of the sound. The door opened to a detached monk's cell. The cell was dark, but a fair hand gripped the doorknob from the inside. Following the hand upwards, a stunningly beautiful girl with white hair and red eyes, whose skin was sickly pale, likely due to prolonged lack of sunlight, emerged.

Arona...

A chilling sense of crisis erupted from Zhou Yan's spine. (Yi)

The white-haired, red-eyed girl stared at Zhou Yan from head to toe, her expression unchanged, but Zhou Yan sensed the danger deepening.

It seems they are now like a giant, dormant volcano, ready to erupt at the slightest provocation, and from which there is no end.

Zhou Yansan smiled.

"Um, I... I saved you."

The beautiful girl opposite tilted her head slightly, her mouth slightly open, and softly uttered a "hmm."

Zhou Yan couldn't detect much gratitude in that "hmm," instead it carried a chilling undertone. Zero

Zhou Yan nervously licked his lips and asked. Zhong

"Can you go out?" Q

The pretty girl opposite shook her head.

"If I don't go out, my body can't enter Mount Ling."

Arona's body on Hourai Island was controlled by a special restriction imposed by the island. This was partly to create a self-cleansing mechanism for Hourai Island, and partly to prevent Arona from running around and causing trouble due to amnesia.

Zhou Yan hurriedly replied.

"It's alright, I'll think of something."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yan's body froze, and he was unable to move his hands and feet.

Across from him, Arona's eyes gleamed with an absolute desire for control.

"Bai Ze..."

Did I say you could leave me?

Zhou Yan: "Σ(°△°|||)"

This chapter has not been approved.

Zhou Yan tried to move his body, but it felt like his body was filled with lead.

Oh no, even lead weights weren't this heavy. It was as if a mountain was pressing down on him, its weight evenly distributed over every inch of his body, to the point that Zhou Yan lost the ability to move.

Across from him, Arona's complexion improved, and he even slightly raised his chin, looking at Zhou Yan with a smug expression.

Zhou Yan's lips twitched a few times; the young man seemed to want to say something, but gave up.

When Zhou Yan went to the South Heavenly Gate and was chased by the gods there, he noticed that these gods shouted that they wanted to fight and kill, and used all sorts of methods, but they didn't use any spells like mental control or perception control.

This is not hard to understand. Zhou Yan guessed that the gods of the South Heavenly Gate had probably fought Bai Ze before. Judging from the way those Heavenly Kings and generals gritted their teeth, they must have fought Bai Ze in the past by attacking, poisoning, or plotting against him. Therefore, these generals were very clear about Bai Ze's abilities.

For example, Bai Ze can control minds, sense and control immunity, and even fight back.

The same goes for Arona on the other side. Zhou Yan's current body is not involved in mental control or sensory control at all, but is purely physical control.

8. Arona was very familiar with how to fight Bai Ze, otherwise, with Arona's innate supernatural power—illusion—the battle would have ended right at the beginning.

Second, "You are weaker than I thought."

4 Aruna emerged from the shadows of His house, and the light of the monastery shone on her face, making the skin of this small, white-haired, red-eyed girl appear even more delicate.

Zhou Yan even suspected that such delicate skin would ulcerate in no time if exposed to sunlight.

3. Arona walked up to Zhou Yan.

"But it's fine this way."
