213: : Stuck in a dead end, Ye Cheng reappears.

[Ah!]

[Is this how the Great Nation's might is calculated?]

[Hai Gonggong was somewhat confused, cursing inwardly about being blinded by lust. He then said with some difficulty, "Prince Wu, that's not good. These two are here to celebrate His Majesty's birthday after all. If they are discovered..."]

[He would be the one in trouble....]

["What's not good about it? They're just women from two small barbarian countries. If someone didn't know, they'd think they were the Old Immortal's favored concubines. What are you babbling about..." You feigned displeasure, the Clown King's true colors instantly showing.]

["After the birthday banquet, just say they are spies from an enemy country Overseas. Bring them to my manor. This Prince will personally interrogate them..."]

["But..."]

["Now, if you talk nonsense again, this Prince will get angry...."]

["This old servant understands..."]

....

[Among the envoys from the various countries Overseas.]

[The Ghoul-Eyed Empress, disguised as a human princess, stared intently at you in front, her eyes flickering, not knowing what she was thinking. A strange smile appeared on her exquisite face behind the black veil: "Great Nation's might... interesting..."]

[Beside her, Su Mei, also disguised as a human, was somewhat dejected, her face pale as snow, and her breathing rapid, like a sick person.]

[Ever since she was taken away by the Ghoul-Eyed Empress some time ago, upon learning of Brother Lu's disappearance, she was instantly anxious. She couldn't help but talk to the Ghoul-Eyed Empress, expressing her hope to quickly increase her strength. Afterward, she was arranged for a "Bloodline Awakening" ritual. Her strength advanced by leaps and bounds, and she had almost reached the Realm of an eighth-order Weird Alien, comparable to the Celestial Human Realm of the Human Race...]

[However, with the surge in strength, there were naturally some side effects. At this moment, Su Mei's Physical Body began to struggle to bear the "Bloodline" after it awakened, and her eyes also turned pitch black...]

[But all of this was bearable for her, because Ghoul-Eyed Sister had promised to bring her to see Brother Lu...]

["Ghoul-Eyed Sister, can we really find Brother Lu by coming here..."]

["Of course we can..."]

[The Ghoul-Eyed Empress said with a smile, gently stroking Su Mei's head. The look in her eyes contained both pity and a hint of greed.]

[The rest of the people around them subconsciously ignored their presence, avoiding them.]

.....

"Damn it, this Ghoul-Eyed Empress has a problem. It seems that finding Su Mei wasn't as simple as imagined family affection; it's more like she has ulterior motives..."

Lu Gan looked at the content in the Villain Simulator, his eyes turning cold. He instantly realized that he might have been too optimistic before.

How could such a Weird Alien risk so much to come to the Great Xia Empire for a so-called relative? There must be some plot...

Combining the information received before, could it be that more than ten years ago, the reason the Ghoul-Eyed Empress joined forces with the Old Guy Chen Xuan was to demand "Su Mei"...

This possibility is not impossible...

Thinking carefully, how did Su Mei escape from the Nether Eye Clan back then, get targeted by the human capture team, and coincidentally enter the territory of the Great Xia Empire...

There seem to be some hidden secrets within this...

As for Su Mei still being alive in Great Xia all these years and not being handed over...

Either the Old Guy Chen Xuan didn't know Su Mei's whereabouts at the time and was just fooling the Ghoul-Eyed Empress...

Or the Old Guy Chen Xuan turned hostile afterward, directly launching a heavy attack and driving the Ghoul-Eyed Empress away...

"But no matter what, Su Mei was clearly tricked by me. I even fantasized about using Su Mei's relationship to get in touch with the Ghoul-Eyed Empress. Now it seems like throwing meat buns to dogs—they go and never return..."

"And that Old Immortal Chen Xuan, besides his terrifying strength, also has the Sage Talent [Eye of Heaven], which can fuse with the heavens, gain the power of the heavens, and peek into the future. He is too great a threat to me. If it weren't for the [Emperor Eye], I might not even know how I died..."

"I wonder how this Villain Simulation will turn out..."

.....

[You and Hai Gonggong entered the inner city...]

[Knowing that you were in a trap, you realized that you were like prey with one foot already in the abyss. If you weren't careful, you would be shattered to pieces.]

["The Ghoul-Eyed Empress is very likely the Old Guy's invited help. This time, it's definitely a double trap. I don't even have confidence in dealing with one Old Guy, and now there's an additional Forbidden Weird Alien..."]

["At this moment, I must find a way to find a glimmer of hope. I hope Xuan Fuzi didn't deceive me and really hid something incredible..."]

[Perhaps, I also need a helper..." Just as you were about to take out the "Skull of the God of Hunting" from your body, you suddenly heard a strange movement.]

[Pfft!]

[Suddenly, Hai Gonggong, who was leading the way and had already entered the inner city, had his throat slit by a knife and died on the spot. He didn't even scream. His body was grabbed by a hand and put into a space ring.]

[Then, a bloody knife slashed towards your neck, almost killing you...]

["Die, Chen Tai, you bastard..."]

[The assassin who attacked wore black clothes, was tall and slender, and faintly revealed fair skin and a stunning face...]

[Seeing this scene, you weren't panicked at all. Instead, your eyes lit up...]

["Hold the knife, Ye Cheng, it's me...."]

[Swish!]

[The knife light paused, stopping just zero point one millimeter from your neck...]

[The assassin Ye Cheng let out a slightly suppressed sound of doubt, tilted her head, and looked at you with strange eyes...]

["Chen Shi?"]

.....

[Great Xia Imperial Palace, Xuanwu Hall.]

[Human Emperor Chen Xuan was playing chess alone, playing against himself. As the white piece fell from his hand, it immediately formed an ambush on all sides, almost strangling the black piece representing the great dragon...]

["Slaying the Dragon..."]

.....

["This Venerable is surrounded, I need to cause a bigger commotion..."]

["Chen Xuan," who was moving around, avoiding the pursuit of the Imperial Observatory, suddenly stopped. A trace of determination flashed in his eyes. The one soul and one spirit hidden within had clearly made a certain decision.]

[Swish!]

[He turned around without hesitation and rushed towards the Great Xia Imperial Palace.]

["Let's explode with him!"]
