"How is that possible? I won't lose."
The Emperor said faintly.
The Emperor of the Empire would never easily reveal his inner thoughts, nor would he let others see through his true thoughts, not even his closest partners.
Li Guangyuan had always been suspicious by nature, and decades of being on the throne had deepened the harshness and suspicion in his temperament. He did not believe in Sun Lang, Empress, or the princes. He did not even believe in human beings, so how could he completely trust the spirit of a Sky Demon sword … They were just using each other.
Both of them had a tacit understanding about this.
"Won't lose …" The Devil asked suddenly, "Then what are you hiding in your sleeve?"
When the Emperor heard this, his face turned red, and he said angrily, "Is it fun to make fun of me?
When I was humiliated by that thief before, you didn't come out to help, but now you're making sarcastic remarks here! "
Mo Ling's voice was so calm that it was hard to tell if she was telling the truth or not. "Sun Lang has been looking for me all this time. Today, he caused a ruckus in the Imperial Garden. Most likely, it was to test my location. How can I do as he wishes … With his cautious nature, he will only feel at ease after he catches all of us in one fell swoop.
It was true … Kill The Devil of the Ancestor first. The Emperor's dream of immortality would be shattered, and he would certainly launch a fierce revenge. Even though Sun Lang was powerful, he could not split himself. Even if only one or two of the relatives and friends he cared about were lost, it would be a lifelong regret. It was the same for dealing with the Emperor first.
The Devil of the Ancestor had accurately grasped Sun Lang's mentality.
The Emperor just snorted and reluctantly accepted this explanation.
The Devil asked again, "How did he humiliate you?"
Asking this was not giving him face. The Emperor's face darkened. Thinking of Sun Lang's ugly face before, he could not help but feel angry. He did not want to answer, and then he heard The Devil say, "We are partners, and Sun Lang is our common enemy. He is full of tricks, insidious and tricky. Today's matter, he may have buried a lot of powerful backup plans. For the sake of you and me, I suggest you be honest …"
The Devil sincerely advised, "You are an Overlord who has endured a hundred times to become an Emperor. You should treat these little humiliations as a breeze, and not let them blind your reason and influence your judgment."
Li Guangyuan's expression was very subtle. As an Emperor, it was his instinct to be suspicious. He sneered and said, "You said so much, you don't just want to hear a story."
"Don't judge me with your human thoughts.. as a human with a short lifespan, you can never imagine what I have seen in my long time …"
The Devil's tone was very calm, but it contained the vicissitudes of life accumulated over the years. The glory and glory of the past, all the blood and fire, had become a corner of eternal memory, only for recollection and aftertaste.
It said faintly, "I have seen the Templars in the starry sky of Aiur launch a leap to the lost home planet, and countless blue streamers illuminated the dark universe. I have seen the Lich King summon his army in the polar regions of Azeroth, and the bone dragon that had slept for ten thousand years roared to the dark sky. I have seen the courage and heroism of the fearless fleet of the Star Alliance across the distance of light years to rush out of hyperspace to support the Extraordinary … You have never heard of or seen all this. Tell me, would I be interested in your trivial scandal?"
The feudal Emperor, whose soul was bound by gravity, did not understand but felt that it was awesome. Even if he was the current Emperor and had the wealth of the world, he had never heard of such things.
He couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. In front of this ancient devil spirit that had lived for who knows how many years, he could be said to be ignorant and inexperienced … It was just that this devil's way of speaking and tone was very similar to Sun Lang's. According to Shi 'er, when Sun Lang bragged, he also liked to talk about these mysterious things that others couldn't understand.
It should be that during those six years, Sun Lang had spent all his time with the Demon, so he had heard a lot of strange stories from the Demon. Then, he had taken them out to boast. Humph, this old thing is just a broken sword. He had followed his master for countless years and had gained a lot of knowledge. Now, he dares to flaunt his seniority in front of me. How hateful …
Although the Emperor cursed in his heart, he was still intimidated.
He hesitated for a moment, and in his heart, he was indeed afraid that Sun Lang might have left behind traps and plots, so he could only reluctantly talk about the losses he had suffered before.
After listening, The Devil pondered for a moment and said, "So that's how it is."
The Emperor said in a cold tone, "The speed of your speech seems to be a little lighter."
The Devil replied, "It's because I'm relieved … Although he beat you up, he did not take the opportunity to explore your body, and I did not feel the power he left in your body. This boy is very clever."
The Emperor took out the canned herring in his hand and said angrily, "He left this for me!
He also said that he put sword energy in it. When I let go, it will explode. You remove the restriction for me! "
The Devil said without hesitation, "It's fine if it explodes. Sun Lang has a sense of propriety. Before he has a plan, he will definitely not hurt you …"
The Emperor was flustered and exasperated, "It's filled with shit!"
The Devil's huge divine thoughts swept over and then said, "Nonsense, it's clearly filled with fish."
The Emperor even had the impulse to roll his eyes. This ancestor The Devil had lived in the sword for a long time, and his way of thinking was very different from that of human beings. There was no way to communicate with them at all. He said impatiently, "Anyway, remove the sword energy in it!"
The Devil scanned it again, "What sword energy?
Sun Lang tricked you. "
He pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "What a stubborn lad. You pushed your daughter to him and made him suspect that there was a restriction placed on Ping Yang by me. Then, he became suspicious and put himself in a difficult position. Then, he handed this thing to you and made you worried for a while …"
The Emperor was stunned at first, then gritted his teeth and said, "This cunning boy …"
But when he recalled the purgatory-like smell, he shivered, "… Really?"
The Emperor got a positive answer and no longer wanted to hold the hot potato in his hand. He immediately identified the general direction that Sun Lang had left in, and with the strength of his right arm and the Genuine Qi running, he suddenly threw it.
The Devil suddenly shouted, "Wait a minute!"
Bang.
Sun Lang, who had already left the inner palace, suddenly turned back and clenched his fist, "Yeah!"
The head of the internal guards who were responsible for sending the General out of the palace were shocked. Sending the general out was fake, but monitoring was real. Their mission was to not let Sun Lang make any more trouble, so they were on tenterhooks all the way. When they suddenly saw Sun Lang stop and cheer, looking very proud, they felt a little guilty.
Sun Lang had just been presumptuous in front of the Emperor. Not only did he humiliate the Emperor, but he also humiliated the internal guards and the officials. As the saying goes, if the Emperor was humiliated, the officials would die. How could these internal guards be happy?
But because of this person's fierce power, it was really not good to get angry. At the moment, one of them said politely, "General, it's not convenient to stay in the inner palace. Let's hurry on our way. If some gossipy palace maids and eunuchs see you here, if they make up some rumors, it will also damage your reputation."
Sun Lang laughed, "What rumors?
Saying that I sleep in the dragon bed at night and have sex with the harem? "
The faces of the internal guards all turned the color of pig liver. They wished that they could increase their power by a hundred times and punch this bastard who was full of nonsense into pieces. If other officials dared to say such nonsense, they would be squatting in the internal guards' dark prison at the latest. But ….
The head of the internal guards who had just spoken forced a smile and said, "General, it's important that we hurry."
Even if the Emperor was as cunning as a ghost, he still drank the water that Sun Lang washed his feet. General Shentse achieved a life achievement and was very happy. When a person was happy, he was easy to talk to. He did not want to lower himself to the level of these internal guards. Just as he was about to leave the palace, he suddenly had an idea.
Looking at the hostility and hatred in the eyes of the internal guards, he thought for a moment. The head of the internal guards, Mei Ruozhuo, was a person who would seek revenge for the smallest grievance. Today, he had beaten him back with one palm and humiliated the old man. Not to mention that the internal guards had collectively lost face in front of the Emperor. The hatred between the two sides would not be resolved.
In this case, he could borrow the Emperor's sword and see if he could kill Mei Ruozhuo.
He made up his mind and waved to the head of the internal guards. He secretly transmitted a message to the head of the internal guards, "Do you know why I was so happy just now?
Because I put a restriction on His Majesty. Now the Emperor has triggered the restriction. Even if he doesn't die, he will lose half of his life. If I'm not wrong, His Majesty must be alone and there must be no one around to look after him. If you don't go to Mei Ruozhuo to save him, you can only collect the Emperor's corpse. "
The internal guards' faces changed greatly. They all stepped back and looked at Sun Lang. Their eyes kept changing. One of them forced a smile and said, "General, don't be a fool …"
Sun Lang leisurely turned around and left, "Believe it or not."
The internal guards looked at each other. One of them gritted his teeth and said, "I'll go back and find Commander Mei!"
Nothing was trivial in the imperial family. If His Majesty was fine, it was just a trip.
Sun Lang and the others leisurely left the palace. The internal guards who had completed their task turned around and ran away. Bao Xiren looked at the magnificent palace gate and the deep imperial city. He said in a daze, "It's over?"
Sun Lang stared at him and said, "… Why are you here?"
Bao Xiren shouted, "I've been following you all the way. You just found out!?"
However, he immediately thought of another matter. He pounced on Sun Lang like a wolf and made a gesture to strangle him. "What the f * ck have you done? Ahhhhh!"
Sun Lang slapped him aside and picked his nose, "Bao Heizi, how can you bite the hand that feeds you?
I've saved your life twice. "
Bao Xiren recalled the scene of him breaking Wang Zhen's neck and sweeping away the other Grandmasters. It was as if he was a rebel who had broken into the palace. Even an innocent and good person like Bao Xiren had to suffer the disdain of the inner guards. His reputation as an official for more than ten years was even showing signs of being destroyed.
Thinking of this, his face turned pale with anger, "Saved my life twice?
You're pushing me into a fire pit!
Before entering the palace, I repeatedly told you to speak calmly and not be violent. What about you?
Before I even started speaking, you killed a eunuch. I already said that I could come alone, but you insisted on coming. You came and killed people. You, you, you, you … I'm so angry! "
Sun Lang shook his head and pointed to Princess Pingyang behind him, "Do you know who she is?"
Previously, when Sun Lang and Sun Lang left the Imperial Garden in a hurry, Bao Xiren knew how dangerous it was and hurriedly followed. Along the way, he was monitored by the internal guards and did not say anything. Only now did he have the opportunity to greet them. He saw that the woman beside Sun Lang was dressed in palace attire and had a veil over her face, but she looked familiar. He already had a guess in his heart, so he saluted seriously and said, "Governor Bao Xiren greets Princess Pingyang."
Princess Pingyang bowed timidly and then hid behind Sun Lang.
Sun Lang said concisely, "This time, the Emperor summoned you to the Imperial Garden to have an audience with him. He wants to betroth his daughter to you, an unyielding young talent."
Bao Xiren was stunned at first, then his body trembled as if he had been struck by lightning.
He was not stupid, so he could completely guess the Emperor's intentions.
Princess Pingyang's face was red, as if she was afraid that Sun Lang would misunderstand. She gathered her courage and poked her head out. She said in an apologetic but firm tone, "I don't want to marry a big-nosed man …"
Bao Xiren was still in shock when he suddenly heard this sentence. His body trembled again – big-nosed man …
Even with his temperament, he could not help but feel sad. This Princess Pingyang looked delicate and reserved, but how could she be so sharp-tongued? Her words were so hurtful …
Sun Lang coughed and said earnestly, "Pingyang, don't be so harsh with your words …"
After scolding the princess, he seemed to be in a hurry to change the topic. He continued to ask, "So, Bao Xiren, if I didn't follow you, if I didn't mess up the situation, how would you deal with the Emperor's great kindness by marrying the princess to you?"
Bao Xiren glanced at Princess Pingyang and said sadly, "His Majesty used his own flesh and blood as a chess piece to plot against me. He provoked a dispute between you and me, and even wanted to drag Master into the situation … Since I was determined to find out the truth, how could I be at the mercy of His Majesty?
I would have refused and told His Majesty about the matter of the Sword Palace. I would have questioned His Majesty … "
Sun Lang said lightly, "If I wasn't by your side, you wouldn't be able to avoid the crime of offending the Emperor and being sent to the death row. Even if I was by your side, you would have been in an even more embarrassing situation. You would have needed my help. Not only would you be stained with blood, I'm afraid that Wang Zhen wouldn't be the only one to die."
Bao Xiren let out a long sigh. "Thank you."
After he thanked him, he asked again, "You said that you saved me three times. What else?"
Sun Lang raised a finger. "That cat girl Zhan Zhao obviously has deep feelings for you. You cruelly abandoned her before coming here. She must be very sad and hate you. If you agree to the marriage and bring back a princess, it would be strange if she doesn't want to kill you. Eh, this plot is so familiar. Bao Xiren, I didn't expect a black-faced and long-bearded guy like you to be Chen Shimei!"
"How many times have I said it? I'm innocent and have nothing to do with Guard Zhan."
When Bao Xiren heard that it was this kind of life-saving grace, his expression turned cold. He looked at Sun Lang and said lightly, "Although I don't know who Chen Shimei is, the person who brought the princess back seems to be you."
Sun Lang heard this and couldn't help but shudder. He then forced a smile and said, "This is my disciple. I saved her from the sea of bitterness. How can it be compared?
You black-faced guy actually cursed me. You have no conscience. To think that I was kind enough to ask the Emperor for a brocade robe for you … "
"What brocade robe?"
"Oh, brocade robe and imperial edict. You take the brocade robe and I take the imperial edict. Loyalty and treachery are clearly distinguished …"
As the three of them talked, they left in the direction of the Mars Sword Palace.
In the palace, the Emperor flew into a rage and spat out countless vicious curses at Sun Lang. He gritted his teeth and said, "Imperial edict, imperial edict, imperial edict. I will write one for Bao Xiren!
God damn it! "
