Chapter 121 A Taste That Makes My Heart Ache



"What do you mean?" Wu Wei felt like she couldn't keep up. Looking at the sunset and fiery clouds was like burning her heart, making her restless and uneasy.

Zheng Ya leaned against the wall, gazing at the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers bathed in the golden light of the setting sun, and exclaimed: "You told me that Sheng Xiang possesses the ability to guide the flow of energy."

Xie Ming possesses true psychic abilities.

So Xie Ming's supernatural abilities seem to be much stronger than Sheng Xiang's guiding abilities, how could he not have left himself a backup plan?

You need to understand that Sheng Xiang is a ruthless man who controls the Sky Hunter Legion and underground monsters. So what about Xie Ming?

"Are you saying that Xie Ming, like Sheng Xiang, might use their respective superpowers to create superpower teams and monster battle groups, just in case?"

But if Xie Ming possesses such abilities, why has he kept them hidden all this time? It doesn't seem like the personality of an arrogant person like him. Wu Wei felt conflicted.

All indications suggest that Xie Ming is not the classmate he once knew.

He was arrogant and domineering at school, and treacherous and vicious. Anyone who crossed him would be targeted by any means necessary.

It is said that Xie Ming killed eighteen people during his three years at the school.

It should be noted that they all study at prestigious private schools, where the students are all wealthy and powerful, and none of them are simple individuals. Killing any of them would cause a great stir and a huge uproar.

Despite these strict rules and regulations, Xie Ming continued to act as he pleased, killing people without leaving a trace.

Hatred is expressed openly, murder is committed in secret, and there is no concealment in what is done.

According to Xie Ming's catchphrase, "I kill your children so I can see that you can't do anything about it."

But Xie Ming had actually been hiding in this world for more than three years?

Is he still alone?

Wu Wei expressed strong doubt, and Zheng Ya laughed: "Haha, the Emperor Emeritus castrated him three years ago..."

"Pfft, cough cough..." Wu Wei had just taken out a glass of water and taken a sip to relieve the discomfort of her dry mouth from talking too much, but she spat it out as soon as she heard him speak.

No wonder Wu Wei realized it and blushed.

Xie Ming was very concerned about his reputation. Now that he had become a eunuch, he would rather die than show his face and become a laughing stock.

Even if he returned to the Qian Yuan Continent and his disabled body was restored by the Tower of Babel, Xie Ming was unwilling to be ridiculed by his opponents.

The feud between Xie Ming and Sheng Xiang stemmed from the fact that Sheng Xiang's younger sister was killed by Xie Ming. They were sworn enemies, determined to fight to the death.

If Sheng Xiang knew Xie Ming was a eunuch, he would surely have made a big fuss about it.

This is probably the real reason why Xie Ming has gone into hiding and hasn't shown his face.

On the contrary, hiding and plotting against others is consistent with Xie Ming's ruthless and vicious personality.

Wu Wei figured out the reason and sneered repeatedly: "What a smiling snake, he tricked me first?"

But something just doesn't feel right.

Given the extent of Xie Ming's animosity towards Sheng Xiang, how could he have tolerated it for so long, ignoring Sheng Xiang's planting of people into various powerful families, which almost led to the downfall of Kyoto...?

"Little girl, how old are you?" Zheng Ya asked dismissively. Wu Wei was stunned and then puffed out her cheeks in anger, retorting, "How dare you call me an idiot?"

"You said it yourself, what does it have to do with me?"

"Fine, explain yourself, or I'm not done with you!"

"With your hands on your hips and your loud voice arguing like that, you're acting like a shrew. How can you be expected to ask for help?"

"What, do I owe you something?" Zheng Ya retorted irritably, as if she thought they were old acquaintances.

Wu Wei was taken aback, then suppressed her anger and said with a wry smile, "I'm sorry, please tell me the truth, and I'll be free?"

"That's more like it." Seeing her earnest pleading, Zheng Ya curled his lip and scolded her. Wu Wei was so angry that her mouth cramped, but she dared not speak out. Only then did Zheng Ya continue with satisfaction: "In short, the higher you fly, the harder you fall..."

"You mean that Sheng Xiang planted spies in various powerful families, while Xie Ming secretly turned Sheng Xiang's informants against him, waiting for an opportunity to act?"

"No, this can't be happening!" Wu Wei felt increasingly chilled as she read the story, a chill running down her spine.

This scheming is terrifying.

Zheng Ya said with a laugh, "The way the retired emperor failed is a reflection of Sheng Xiang's situation."

Unfortunately, Sheng Xiang did not show up in Kyoto, so Xie Ming did not reveal more of his hidden methods.

Your ignorance allowed Xie Ming to scheme to use you as a pawn, pacifying the northern border.

If you don't believe me, you can send a hummingbird to the North to report on their military situation; you're sure to make a great discovery."

"Princess, he's right. The Northern Territory is now completely under the Emperor's control. Military intelligence reports indicate that powerful families are carrying out a major purge and are now uniting to pacify the Northern Territory. The Northern Territory is now unified!" Liu Qingyun warned from the city wall a hundred meters away. All her previous efforts had been in vain.

This includes the Azure Dragon Legion, whose military power has now fallen into the hands of the Emperor.

The key was that the action was too fast. In almost half a day after Wu Wei left the Northern Territory, the Northern Territory forces launched a major purge and joint operations, reshuffling the territory and completely pacifying the entire Northern Territory in less than half a day.

Fast, too fast.

Nobody would believe there wasn't premeditated behind it.

Wu Wei's eyes were bloodshot as she angrily shouted, "Damn emperor! How dare you make a fool of me! I'll kill you as soon as I get the chance..."

"The emperor is your father..."

"There's not even a trace of blood relation; maybe the only thing that's similar is their voice and appearance. What kind of father is he? Does he even deserve the title?"

"Just a moment ago, I thought Shengxiang's plan to conquer the world was a series of interconnected schemes."

It has only now been discovered that Xie Ming's scheme was a masterstroke, making him the biggest schemer, and he also orchestrated this grand drama in Jiangnan.

"Wow, they're all cunning old foxes, each one more ruthless than the last." Zheng Ya was also impressed, realizing he'd been used as a pawn.

If Xie Ming and Sheng Xiang hadn't started planning their strategies three years ago and seized the initiative, Zheng Ya would definitely be incredibly frustrated.

Being intellectually outmatched is incredibly frustrating.

Wu Wei was so angry that she didn't speak until the sun had set and only a faint red glow remained on the horizon: "So it seems that Sheng Xiang is the biggest loser."

But we know nothing about the institutions he established in the Dark Yuan Dynasty.

If he were to unify the Dark Yuan Dynasty first, it would likely bring untold suffering to the people of the world!

Suspicion is not an exaggeration.

For a long time, the humans, beasts, birds, and water demons of the Dark Yuan Dynasty have been fighting each other in the seas, islands, mountains, rivers, and lakes, occasionally invading the territory of the Great Li Dynasty to feast.

The reason lies in the abundance of natural resources in the sea and mountains. They don't care about the meager resources of the Dali Dynasty. At most, they just want to change their tastes and choose to invade Dali.

That's due to the habits of the creatures of the Dark Yuan Dynasty.

Now things have changed because of Shengxiang's involvement.

After all, Sheng Xiang's ability to guide others is such that the bigger the target of the situation he guides, the greater the benefit. Given his ability and opportunity, Sheng Xiang will inevitably conquer the world and do his best to achieve his ambitious goals.

Zheng Ya had already guessed this, and smiled faintly as he urged them to go: "Go if you want."

There's no need to test me. I might even offer you assistance, sending Azure Dragon to help you conquer the Dark Yuan Dynasty. Goodbye, and don't bother seeing me off.

"You, you're really that kind?" Wu Wei felt a headache coming on. She absolutely refused to believe that this grown man didn't have ambitions to dominate.

Without dominating, where will the cultivation points for luck come from?

Zheng Ya couldn't possibly tell her that his heart was imprinted on the stars and the sea, that his ambition was to create an interstellar beacon, integrate the myriad worlds into a network, and launch a comprehensive invasion: "Little brat, go play somewhere else."

You don't understand the adult world...

"Hmph, I hope you keep your word, otherwise..." Wu Wei raised her fist in a show of defiance, but Zheng Ya didn't even glance at her. Sensing that she and Liu Qingyun were gradually disappearing from his perception range, he smiled...
