Sure enough, after shedding his disguise, Wan Cangqiong began to pour out his grievances.
"Your Majesty! You must save me! Su Nian has now become a half-step True Immortal, and his senses are exceptionally sharp. He has already begun to suspect my true identity. If my true identity is exposed, I will die without a burial place, Your Majesty!"
The Human Emperor looked at Wan Cangqiong, who was kneeling before him and pleading desperately, and said indifferently, "Su Nian is also a member of the human race. Now that he has married into the demon race, if you ask who in the world understands you the most, it would probably be him, right? Instead of going to him to be honest, you come to me for help. What do you mean by that?"
Wan Cangqiong gave a wry smile and said, "You don't know this, but Su Nian... has actually experienced reincarnation!"
The Emperor was slightly startled and narrowed his eyes. "What did you say?"
"You must also find Su Nian quite strange, right? He's only in his early twenties, how could he have made so many leaps in cultivation levels in an instant, becoming a half-step True Immortal powerhouse? That's because the Su Nian in this life is not the original Su Nian at all! He is an extreme powerhouse who has experienced a hundred reincarnations! In his past hundred lives, he was titled the Reincarnation Emperor! That's why he's so strong!"
The Emperor remained silent.
This information was difficult for him to accept at first.
However, if what Wan Cangqiong said was true, then the Emperor's vigilance would be even greater.
"You say he has reincarnated a hundred times, so does that mean he already knows everything about me?" the Human Emperor asked, squinting his eyes.
Wan Cangqiong shook his head. "I don't know about that, but judging from his current performance, it should be."
The Emperor stroked his chin, his brows furrowed tightly as he stared intently at Wan Cangqiong.
"So, he knows who you are?"
"I don't know, but judging from his reaction, he definitely wants to kill me!" Wan Cangqiong knelt on the ground, pleading repeatedly.
"Since Su Nian became the commander of the First Army, he has carried out a purge of the First Army from top to bottom. All the demons who have done evil deeds have been executed! If my cultivation level were not high enough and I were not still useful in the war between the two realms, I would probably have become a dead soul under the executioner's blade long ago!"
The Emperor began to ponder the truthfulness of what Wan Cangqiong had said.
After a moment, he slowly raised his hand, looked down at the vast sky, and said coldly, "In this world, everything can lie, except memories. If you truly wish to be loyal to me, then you shouldn't mind me searching your soul, right?"
“This…” Wan Cangqiong hesitated.
The Emperor's palm glowed with a faint blue light; he was about to use the Seven Star Soul Searching Technique on Wan Cangqiong.
After being improved by his own Dao essence, the Seven Star Soul Searching Technique has long since become a secret technique that can be used on living people. However, the difference is that the Human Emperor's move will cause great damage to the soul of the person being targeted!
The Human Emperor concealed this move extremely well. He had stolen this move from the Seven Stars Sect many years ago, and after mastering it, he killed the master who taught him. Therefore, theoretically, no one in the world knew that the Human Emperor could use the Seven Stars Soul Searching Technique.
Of course, this excludes Su Nian, who has experienced countless reincarnations and knows the Human Emperor very well.
The Emperor said calmly, "If you're not willing, then forget it. I won't search your memories, nor will I save your life. You can decide what to do next."
Wan Cangqiong gritted his teeth and nodded emphatically.
"I, I'm willing!" He bent down and kowtowed heavily.
"I am willing to let Your Majesty search my soul!"
The Emperor nodded. "Very good."
Then, he slowly raised his hand and placed it on Wan Cangqiong's head.
"Do not resist... Let me see... whether your true memories are as you say."
The moment the Human Emperor's hand touched Wan Cangqiong's head, Wan Cangqiong's memories flooded into the Human Emperor's mind like a tidal wave.
He witnessed Wan Cangqiong's life; like himself, his mother died in childbirth.
Despised by his father and coveted by his neighbors because of his human aura, Wan Cangqiong lived a life of constant fear and trepidation during his childhood.
He had no choice but to flee into the deep mountains, where he faced numerous dangers and nearly lost his life several times amidst attacks by wild beasts.
One day, he met someone the emperor would never forget.
It was that ascetic master who concealed Wan Cangqiong's human aura, allowing Wan Cangqiong to resume a normal life.
After seeing all this, the Emperor was extremely satisfied.
Looking at Wan Cangqiong again, he seemed to be looking at a piece of uncut jade.
"No wonder you can fight opponents of higher levels so easily; it turns out you are also half-human and half-demon."
Although half-human, half-demon beings are not tolerated by the Nine Provinces and the Demon Realm, their combat talent far surpasses that of their peers!
The Human Emperor was able to defeat a powerful figure at the fifth level of the Tribulation Realm when he was at the third level of the Tribulation Realm. Now he was finally convinced that Wan Cangqiong had not told a single lie.
"It's good that Your Majesty understands!" Wan Cangqiong breathed a sigh of relief.
The Emperor then asked, "You can sense the hidden aura within me?"
Wan Cangqiong nodded. "Yes, Your Majesty feels the same way, doesn't he?"
The Emperor nodded.
He only learned today that half-human, half-demon beings could sense each other.
When the Emperor saw Wan Cangqiong on the battlefield during the day, he felt a sense of familiarity emanating from him.
Now he finally understood that it was a mutual attraction between a half-human, half-demon.
"You said before that you would be loyal to me, so do you understand what I intend to do?" the Emperor asked.
Wan Cangqiong clasped his hands and said, "Of course, it's to defeat the traitor Su Nian! Conquer the Demon Realm and unify the world!"
