"This is the Emperor's palace. We cannot enter. Take care of yourself!"
After leaving these words, the bronze soldier slowly left along the way he came.
The palace gate in front of them slowly opened, and a burly man in a black robe with a black bird pattern stood before them.
"King Zhou!"
Ye Feng exclaimed, the last king of the Shang Dynasty who could live in the city of Chaoge was undoubtedly King Zhou!
The man in front of him laughed loudly, his eyes deep:
"Don't call me King Zhou. King Zhou is an unpleasant posthumous title given to me by the people of Zhou. The people of the Shang Dynasty do not give anyone a posthumous title."
"They would call their leader emperor. Only since the Zhou Dynasty have people started calling themselves kings!"
"My people of the Great Shang will call me Emperor Xin!"
Emperor Xin walked towards Ye Feng, and their eyes met:
"You...are fine!"
Emperor Xin suddenly said this, leaving Ye Feng a little confused.
"emperor……"
Ye Feng was about to salute, but Emperor Xin stopped him and said with a smile
"The emperor does not worship the emperor, unless you are my descendant, or I am on the sacrificial tablet, then you can worship me!"
"But I'm not the Emperor!"
Ye Feng struggled to say this, but unexpectedly it caused Emperor Xin to laugh.
"This is the beauty of your chess game. You plan everything out, putting yourself in the game. Even you forget you're the player. How can anyone predict your next move?"
"Chess game, who plays it?"
Ye Feng felt like he was being confused. Didn’t the Taoist say that he was not the Heavenly Lord? Then what about this so-called chess player?
If he is not the reincarnation of a powerful being, how can he rule the world?
Emperor Xin patted his forehead and said with a smile:
"I almost forgot. You can't know the details of this chess game yourself. Otherwise, all the plans that have been made for billions of years will be ruined."
"You don't need to think too much. When you reach the mountain, there will always be a way. When you reach the bridge, the boat will naturally straighten itself out."
He waved his hand gently, Ye Feng's eyes became blurry, and the memory of what just happened was quickly erased.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Emperor Xin looked at Ye Jinyan and nodded slightly:
"haven't seen you for a long time!"
"Long time no see, are you... still alive?"
"Who knows? I am just a fragment of the soul and cannot sense the state of the main body."
Emperor Xin looked calm and his eyes were deep.
"Tell me about you, when will you marry him?"
He suddenly smiled, his tone joking:
"I can't keep blowing it in this life!"
"No, in this life, he will not die, and I will definitely marry him!"
Ye Jin's tone was firm. Not this time, absolutely not!
"Indeed, he has reached perfection, a seven-life grudge match... but do you really know his true identity?"
Emperor Xin looked at Ye Feng, whose consciousness was in chaos, and asked.
Ye Jinyan's eyes darkened:
"It doesn't matter anymore. I've been entangled with him for seven lifetimes. This is already the eighth. It's time for us to achieve a happy ending."
Emperor Xin smiled, while Ye Feng's gaze gradually became focused and his expression was blank.
"Let's go, accompany me for one last walk in Chaoge City!"
Emperor Xin laughed heartily, wearing a black robe with a black bird pattern, and walked towards the street step by step.
At this time, many people suddenly appeared in the deserted city of Chaoge, including porters carrying loads, mobile vendors, and laughing people.
"Back then, my people lived and worked in peace and contentment, the land was fertile, and Chaoge was the center of the world!"
Emperor Xin sighed as he walked. Countless people looked at the black-robed Xuanniao with respect and bowed in greeting.
"Greetings to the Emperor!"
"install!"
Emperor Xin waved his hand lightly, and gentle energy lifted up the people who were bowing.
Ye Feng, who was standing behind him, was confused. This Emperor Xin seemed to be different from what was described in history books.
"This is my Chaoge, this is my world!"
Before Emperor Xin finished shouting, the bustling crowd gradually faded away, and Chaoge returned to silence.
Ye Feng looked at the tall man's back and felt a sense of loneliness as a hero. Back then, his Chaoge City was indeed as he said, the center of the world, where all nations came to pay tribute!
But now, there is only this lonely emperor in Chaoge.
"Has my power declined to this extent?"
Emperor Xin stopped, looked back at Ye Feng, and spoke slowly:
"Indeed, my era has come to an end!"
"Next, it's your time!"
Emperor Xin's eyes were determined, and then there was a huge earthquake, and the entire Chaoge city seemed to be uprooted.
Emperor Xin waved his hand and picked up Ye Feng and Ye Jinyan, and watched the changes in Chaoge City quietly in the air.
The bronze soldier guarding the city gate seemed to have known this for a long time. He knelt on one knee, looked up at the sky with a determined gaze and shouted:
"If there is an afterlife, we would like to fight for the emperor again!"
Emperor Xin's calm eyes began to ripple slightly:
"allow!"
The sound was not loud, but it was clearly heard by the bronze soldiers below.
The shocking scene did not last long. The magnificent Chaoge disappeared, and a huge bronze tripod appeared on the ground.
Emperor Xin brought the two men to the big tripod and gently stroked the ancient patterns on it. Two words were engraved on the tripod base: Yuzhou!
"This is one of the Nine Cauldrons, the Yuzhou Cauldron, a symbol of Chinese orthodoxy!"
Emperor Xin spoke to himself, with a look of nostalgia in his eyes.
"After Chaoge was conquered and I burned myself to death, this remnant of my soul entered the Yuzhou Ding. After countless years, my consciousness regained consciousness and I took the Yuzhou Ding with me into a secret realm. I used the Yuzhou Ding's body as a foundation to create the city of Chaoge!"
"This can be considered a kind of wish... Eventually, the old emperor will be replaced by the new, and the old emperor will have to abdicate and make way for the new one!"
Ye Feng was listening intently when Emperor Xin suddenly grabbed his right hand and pressed it on the pattern on the Yuzhou Ding.
"All nine tripods have forbidden spirit areas. From now on, you are the master of the Yuzhou Tripod. In its area, you are the only emperor!"
"Gathering the Nine Cauldrons can sever the connection between heaven and earth and seal off the world!"
"It's a pity that you haven't yet attained the status of Human Emperor, so you can't fully control the Nine Cauldrons... But it's enough for you!"
Emperor Xin's figure gradually faded until it turned into a point of light and disappeared:
"I look forward to our next meeting!"
At the same time, Ye Feng felt that there seemed to be an inexplicable connection between him and the Yuzhou Ding. It was not like the submission that Emperor Xin had mentioned, but rather an equal contract.
"Do you want to become the Human Emperor?"
Ye Feng muttered to himself. He didn't really believe Lu Xuan's nonsense at first, but now he is half convinced.
The light on the Yuzhou Ding flickered, forming a mysterious connection with the ancient black gold ring.
Yuzhou Ding instantly transformed into a golden light and disappeared into the ancient black gold ring, and this secret realm gradually began to collapse.
The secret realm originally relied on the Yuzhou Ding to exist. Now that the Yuzhou Ding has entered the ancient black gold ring, this secret realm has lost its support and will naturally begin to collapse.
"Good boy, it's time to leave!"
After Emperor Xin disappeared, the forbidden spirit field on the Yuzhou Ding could no longer affect Ye Jinyan.
She pulled Ye Feng and instantly escaped from this collapsed secret realm.
