To be honest, before this, Ye Wuque had suspected Emperor Gou Chen and Emperor Changsheng about the true identity of the strange creatures.
In fact, the possibility of being the Immortal Emperor should be the highest.
Because the Great Emperor Changsheng was in charge of all restrictions in Yao Chi, and he was the only one who remained in the old heaven and did not join the Jade Emperor to suppress Yuan Zhenxiao!
As for the Emperor Hou Tu?
It’s not that Ye Wuque has never had doubts, but relatively speaking, the probability of doubt is the smallest.
Because the corpse was that of a man, and his gender was not right.
But now it seems that his idea is still not comprehensive enough!
"Woman...yes...I became a woman..."
When Emperor Hou Tu heard Ye Wuque's words, he smiled sweetly. This smile carried a hint of emotion, but also a kind of inexplicable enjoyment.
"I can see that even someone as smart as you are, you are also shocked by my current status, aren't you?"
"Even you find it incredible, let alone others?"
"What better way to hide than this?"
Choose to become a woman from a man!
For 99% of the creatures in the world, this is almost unimaginable.
But Emperor Hou Tu did just that!
Ye Wuque was extremely shocked and couldn't help but applaud this move!
"Indeed, if you had not chosen the Mother River of Yao Chi, but chose to stay in the outside world, I would definitely have suspected Fellow Daoist Changsheng and Fellow Daoist Gou Chen more than you, and I would even not have suspected you subconsciously." Ye Wuque gave an affirmative answer.
“Hehehe…” Hearing the undisguised admiration in Ye Wuque’s tone, Emperor Hou Tu seemed to be very happy as well, and the smile on his face became even more beautiful and moving.
She is already beautiful, and with the dignified aura that comes from her high position, her every frown and smile is enough to make many people of the opposite sex fall for her.
"You know what? Actually, I was not used to it at first. After all, I was once a man, and I became a girl through possession. How awkward is that? Moreover, if I am not careful, it will be easily exposed and people will think there is something wrong with me."
"So, in the beginning, it was really hard for me to pretend. I felt out of place and no matter how I acted, it felt weird..." Emperor Hou Tu spoke like this at this moment, seeming to be lost in distant memories.
"Later, I gradually got used to it, and I thought I was good at disguising myself, enough to be mistaken for the real thing. However, there were still flaws in the smallest details!"
"And this tiny flaw will become my death warrant at the critical moment!"
"I tried everything I could think of, but I couldn't get rid of it. It wasn't until I observed countless women that one day I suddenly realized..."
"The reason there was that last flaw is because I've been learning how to be a woman!"
“This mentality is actually wrong.”
"Because no matter how similar you are, it will never be perfect and there will always be flaws."
"The key to changing this is mentality..."
"You need to make yourself recognize from the bottom of your heart that you are a woman, and want to be a woman from the bottom of your heart!"
"Only in this way can we truly become perfect and eliminate that last flaw!"
"Then, I succeeded. I really did it."
"Moreover, as time went by, as I rose step by step in the four universes and in this Dongyue universe, became famous, had a Taoist partner, and finally joined the Old Heaven, inherited the title of 'Hou Tu the Great Emperor', and became one of the Four Imperial Gods, I suddenly felt that being a woman... was pretty good..."
"I thoroughly enjoyed it and fell in love with this feeling...so, I became a woman through and through..." Emperor Hou Tu said slowly, with a look of genuine happiness and enjoyment on her beautiful face.
This scene left Ye Wuque speechless.
He doesn't understand Emperor Hou Tu's mental journey yet, but he expresses respect for him.
After all, the world is so big that there are all kinds of strange things.
"Haha, I'm sorry. I was so emotional at the time that I said so much. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you." Emperor Hou Tu seemed to have come back to his senses from his memories and spoke like this.
"It's time to tell me your true origins..." Ye Wuque finally spoke.
Hearing this, Hou Tu the Great was not surprised, as if she had expected it long ago, but she shook her head and said: "I can't say!"
Ye Wuque raised his eyebrows.
"But I can tell you where I came from." Emperor Hou Tu continued.
Soon, the Great Emperor Hou Tu pointed to the mighty Yaochi Mother River below, which was constantly surging and rushing forward, and said: "In the past, I slowly floated over from the end of this river, and finally came to the four universes!"
As soon as these words came out, Ye Wuque's eyes suddenly flashed.
"For this, I paid a huge and cruel price. In fact, crossing this river was like suicide in my eyes at the beginning. It was a last-ditch effort. There was an 80% to 90% chance that I would die completely and turn into ashes!"
"But I have no choice. Even if the probability is only one in ten thousand, I will try my best!"
"But in the end, I succeeded! I drifted all the way, fainted countless times, and woke up countless times. In the end, it was as if I had drifted through the vicissitudes of life and drifted across an endless distance. Finally, along this branch, I was constantly teleported and pulled randomly in the chaotic space, and floated here alive."
"Lucky enough!"
"But because of this, my body was completely destroyed. It's tattered and broken, and it can't be repaired. If it weren't for my innate characteristics that earned the recognition of this river, I probably wouldn't have had a chance to survive." Emperor Hou Tu recounted the past with deep emotion.
But the fact revealed invisibly shocked Ye Wuque's heart!
Not long ago, out of curiosity, he wanted to go to the end of the Yao Chi Mother River to see what was going on. In the end, he did reach the so-called end.
However, Ye Wuque knew that was not the real end. The purple-black water of the Yao Chi Mother River was still flowing forward mightily, and no one knew where it was going. Instead, if it went further, it would encounter terrible space turbulence. Once it stepped over it, it would be easy to be teleported to an unknown place.
So, he stopped exploring and eventually returned.
But it was there, in front of the chaotic space barrier, that he discovered the remains.
Now, what was unexpected was that the Emperor Hou Tu in front of him actually floated over from the other side of the Yao Chi Mother River!
This alone is enough to prove that Emperor Hou Tu was extraordinary in the past and was definitely not an ordinary creature.
"And..." Emperor Hou Tu continued to speak with emotion, his beautiful eyes looking at the vast purple-black river with a hint of trance and deep awe.
"The real name of this river has never been the so-called Yaochi Mother River. Yaochi Mother River was just given by the old Heavenly Court. Its real name is..."
“Taichu Lingze!”
