"Your Highness, you can ask His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor. If His Majesty is willing to let you know, you will surely find out. As for anything else, I cannot say more."
Hearing Si Ming repeat the same old excuse, Ye Wanqing suddenly smiled slyly, "Si Ming Star Lord, do you think you can so easily dismiss me with such an excuse?"
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger."
"Look what this is?" Ye Wanqing suddenly opened his palm, revealing a beautiful bead that shimmered with dazzling light.
Si Ming's expression suddenly changed, "!"
"I hear your dear brother is in dire straits right now. I can lend him a hand. Just tell me His Majesty's secret. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else about this. I won't betray you. No one will know that you leaked it to me." Ye Wanqing was certain that this item would make Siming obedient.
However, Si Ming's expression quickly returned to normal.
"Your Highness, please return."
Si Ming's reaction completely enraged Ye Wanqing. "That's your only brother. Although he's been banished to the mortal realm, this is his last chance. If he still doesn't have a good ending this time, you'll lose him forever. Si Ming, are you really sure you want to abandon him?"
Ye Wanqing was certain that Si Ming was only outwardly upright and incorruptible; he couldn't possibly be without weaknesses. His younger brother, who was in imminent danger in the mortal realm, was the perfect pawn for him to manipulate.
"I dare not speak too much about the Heavenly Emperor's affairs. But I can offer another piece of information to the Heavenly Consort in exchange for this half of the demon core," Siming finally spoke.
Upon hearing this, Ye Wanqing's face darkened. "You dare to play tricks on me!"
"This humble fairy would not dare. The news that this humble fairy is going to sell to the Heavenly Consort will allow the Heavenly Consort to get her wish in the short term. As for whether she is willing to exchange half a demon core, it is entirely up to the Heavenly Consort."
Si Ming's composed and respectful response made Ye Wanqing ponder.
The God of Destiny had served as her Heavenly Consort for longer, so he wouldn't fabricate lies to deceive her.
Although it's a pity that I couldn't uncover the secrets of the Heavenly Emperor, it's not so bad to have a chance to get what I want.
"make a deal!!"
When Ye Wanqing came out of the Hall of Fate, his face was beaming with joy.
In the past two years, since the decline of the Ye family, she has never smiled as happily as she does today.
The fairy maids serving her were stunned; they finally saw their mistress smile.
Ye Wanqing was surprised that Si Ming's information was indeed accurate. She was told to wait and that news would soon come to her, and it really did.
Not long after, she received a message from the mysterious person.
That mysterious power came and went without a trace, making it difficult to catch. However, the contents of the document greatly surprised Ye Wanqing. "Siming, you really are something else. This information is worth exchanging for that half of a demon core."
...
On the other hand, Aoqian never expected that finding that painting would be so complicated.
If the Demon King hadn't found himself in the same predicament as him, he would have seriously suspected that he had been tricked by the Demon King.
The two of them had been trapped in a formation for several hours.
This formation will consume a person's magical power, essence, and spirit.
The Demon King, in particular, only had half a demon core left, and coupled with his existing injuries, he couldn't hold on for long.
The Demon King told him that this hellish place was the only way to find the painting, and that this formation was a test for them; only those who could withstand it would be qualified to continue forward.
After saying this, the Demon King closed his eyes, barely clinging to life.
Aoqian was in a daze, sometimes lucid and sometimes confused, feeling like he was having one dream after another.
Some of his dreams were of the scenes when he first met Song Xiwei. At that time, he was naturally suspicious and was always thinking about revenge because of the massacre of the demon race. He was very unfriendly to Song Xiwei and would casually say hurtful things.
But thinking about it carefully, it seems that Song Xiwei is always the one who never abandons her.
