Chapter 807 The Reincarnation of the Wise Emperor [1st Update]
This was the year he disappeared from the Xiu family.
It was also the time when Xiu Yu left the Xiu family heartbroken.
That year, she was not even 15 years old.
He lost his mother and his father.
“There’s something wrong with the divination.” Ying Zijin’s fingers tightened around the booklet. “This kind of divination is very strange. I’ve been worried that there’s something wrong with it. No wonder I’ve had it done several more times after I entered the city, and the result has always been the same.”
Several divinations confirmed that Xiu Shaoning was not in mortal danger, but everything else was unknown.
In short, the hexagram is a blank.
The three blank tarot cards were the same as when she had her Norton reading done at Norton University.
A blank space signifies that the wise and righteous are no longer in this world.
If Xiu Shaoning was just an ordinary person, then the divination she made back then would have been very accurate.
Ke Xiu Shao Ning is the reincarnation of the sage Zheng Yi.
When her strength hadn't recovered, she couldn't foresee major events like the life or death of other sages.
Most importantly, Xiu said he had not seen Sage Justice or Sage Power since the late nineteenth century.
The starting point for Yao Guang and others to hunt down the reincarnations of sages was exactly 1848.
Everything fits together.
It seems that the reason for the island experiment was not because the experimental subjects were particularly valuable.
Rather, it was because among that group of researchers was a reincarnation of a sage.
"You worked with Zhengyi before?" Fu Yunshen patted her head. "How is he?"
Ying Zijing knew he was asking about when they co-founded the NOK forum. She closed her eyes briefly and said, "Just like his title, he's a very righteous person."
She lowered her head: "If only I could have stayed longer."
Clearly, Yao Guang and the Tower took advantage of the fact that the Sage Justice and Sage Power had been reincarnated in response to a calamity to begin their attack on them.
Fu Yunshen's eyes darkened slightly: "Yaoyao, this is not your fault. Don't take this kind of thing upon yourself."
Ying Zijin leaned against his broad, strong back and looked up at the sky.
As dawn broke, a touch of white appeared on the horizon.
Daylight is approaching.
The sun rises, and light shines again.
Ying Zijing looked at the first star that appeared, her eyes dimming slightly.
After a long silence, she spoke softly, "I was just thinking about how I should tell Xiaoyu this news."
"Don't tell her yet," Fu Yunshen said. "The City of the World is too chaotic. She might act impulsively. We can't afford to lose anyone else."
From the moment he became a sage, he knew that one day he would inevitably die from a calamity.
That's how the wise and the foolish, and the wise and the temperate, parted ways.
But the sage's justice and power died at the hands of his own people.
How ironic.
“You’re right, we can’t say now, there’s another page.” Ying Zijing rubbed her temples and breathed slowly. “Let’s continue reading.”
The last page has four large characters at the top—
Wise Emperor.
Ying Zijing narrowed her eyes slightly: "They hunted down the reincarnation of the Sage Emperor very early."
It started in the 12th century.
This page is entirely filled with names from the continent of O.
Moreover, each of these names represents a famous emperor in the history of O Continent.
However, the last column was left blank.
The Sage Emperor's last reincarnation, the Black Skull, has not yet been found.
“Fortunately, the emperor is still alive.” Ying Zijin frowned slightly. “However, I also cannot figure out where he is.”
"Don't worry," Fu Yunshen said calmly. "I've crippled all three of them; they won't be able to move for a while."
"Once you recover, you will be able to find out where the emperor is."
He sent men to guard every door of the City of the World.
“Not bad, there’s one more question.” Ying Zijing looked him up and down. “How did you escape from the combined attack of the Tower and the Hanged Man, and then cripple them, and you’re still unharmed?”
He was already covered in bruises when he forcibly sent her away.
Fu Yunshen did not reveal how the tower had pierced his shoulder blade. He smiled and said casually, "I accidentally became a sage."
"An accident?" Ying Zijing crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow. "Devil, lying through your teeth is not a good thing."
The familiar address and tone of voice suddenly pulled him back to many years ago.
The girl looked at him with eyes that seemed to see right through him: "Devil, you're lying."
"How did you guess it so quickly?" Fu Yun lowered his head and hugged her. "You couldn't have predicted me, could you?"
“It’s a very simple matter.” Ying Zijin glanced at him. “Miss Power and Mr. Justice have passed away, and Norton is with the Lyinger family, so I don’t think he will leave.”
"Then tell me, among the twenty-two sages, who else could withstand the combined attack of the two of them?"
"Alright." Fu Yunshen conceded, his voice tinged with amusement. "Miss Ying, let's make a deal. Don't slap me in the face."
"Don't call me Miss Ying." Ying Zijing slapped his hand away, her eyes cold. "It sounds like flirting. I'm still angry."
She found that no matter what he called her, it always sounded inappropriate.
"Okay." Fu Yunshen readily agreed. "Little friend, girlfriend, fiancée, which one do you like?"
"..."
Ying Zijing turned and left.
Fu Yunshen took her hand from behind: "Are you really angry?"
“No, I need to go to O Continent first.” Ying Zijing’s eyes narrowed. “I’m still a little worried. I need to settle my teacher first.”
“Okay, let’s go.” Fu Yunshen didn’t say anything. “I’ll take you.”

O Continent, Herven Experimental Base.
Licinius has been safely delivered by Dean Norman.
With the addition of another capable member to the space carrier experiment project, Herwin naturally welcomed it wholeheartedly.
Dean Norman had also woken up, though he was still a little dazed.
He had no idea how he got out of the city or how he got here.
But when he saw the sophisticated mechanical instruments, he forgot everything else.
Dean Norman had never left the City of the World in his entire life, nor did he know the level of technology outside the city.
Upon seeing it, I couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "Wonderful, absolutely wonderful!"
No wonder Ying Zijing mentioned Herwin to him many times, saying that Herwin's abilities were absolutely no less than those of Simon Brand back then.
“Dean Norman,” Herwin adjusted his glasses, “you also think physics is beautiful, right?”
“Yes, that’s right!” Dean Norman said firmly. “Physics is the most wonderful thing in the world! When in doubt, quantum mechanics! What problem can’t physics solve?”
He looked incredibly proud, his face practically screaming, "Physics is the best!"
Herwin's eyes lit up, as if he had found a kindred spirit: "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Norman, you are truly a kindred spirit to me."
As he spoke, he sighed again: "Sigh, last time I met a girl from the same place as you. She was very good at physics, but she actually said that she hated physics the most, which broke my heart."
Dean Norman: "..."
Why does it sound like something his eldest disciple would say?
Ying Zijing, who had just arrived at the experimental base: "..."
She no longer wanted to go in.

On the other side, the Sage's Institution.
Sara spent the whole night in fear, worried that the Sage Demon would just storm into the Sage's Courtyard.
Until the sun rises and a new day begins.
Because the tower was destroyed by Fu Yunshen, his special abilities could not be used, and the sky over the City of the World returned to normal.
All of this made Sara very anxious.
She found that more and more things were getting out of her control.
"Where's the tower? Where's Yaoguang?" Shaluo frowned. "How come they've both disappeared?"
The magician was also puzzled.
Ta came to see him last night, saying he was going to kill someone.
However, the tower, Yaoguang, and Zhouyan are always elusive, disappearing for a period of time from time to time.
He didn't take it to heart, and just casually replied, "Maybe something's wrong, why do you care?"
He was only responsible for concocting medicine; nothing else was his concern.
"You mean I can't control them?!" Sara screamed in fury. "So anyone can defy me and humiliate me?!"
The magician was startled: "I didn't mean that, why are you so agitated?"
Neuropathy.
The magician just wanted to leave as soon as possible and get back to making potions.
He didn't have time to waste with Shaluo here.
"Report—" Just then, the steward rushed in, "Your Majesty, the head of the Yu family has submitted another application to leave the city. What do you think, should we approve it or not?"
“The head of the Yu family.” A chilling smile played on Sha Luo’s lips. “You want to leave the city, is that it? Very well, bring him along.”
Leaving the city comes at a price.
Abolish the use of force and erase memories.

After watching Awakening Age, I repeatedly wanted to go in and slap Zhang Fengzai a few times (flips table).
