silence.
After Huang Xuan said that name, the imperial study room fell into an eerie silence.
Lu Li looked at Huang Xuan like a madman.
After a while, he asked strangely: "Do you really expect me to believe such crazy things that are not even lies?"
Huang Xuan shrugged her shoulders with a very indifferent expression.
"According to what you said, before you sneaked into the palace, you were still in Jitian Demon Kingdom. You didn't even know who was responsible for the attack, so you were taken outside the imperial city of Tiantian Holy Kingdom and met His Majesty?"
Lu Li smiled half-heartedly and said, "So, he wants you to sneak into the palace and let you, a princess from an enemy country, sit on your throne to lead the ministers and control the court?"
"How could an emperor do such a crazy thing?"
"Your Highness Huangxuan, do you think this is ridiculous?"
Huang Xuan still had that casual and natural expression, "That's the way it is. Since you don't believe it, there's nothing I can do about it. But I have to correct you. It's not that Mu Jing wants me to sneak into the imperial city and become the emperor in his place. In his eyes When he came to me, there was surprise in his eyes, as well as a hint of murderous intent that was well hidden, but I still felt it."
"But he didn't take any action, he just said something to himself."
"What are you talking about?" Lu Li asked immediately.
He had a hunch that this sentence might be the key.
Regardless of whether what Huang Xuan said was true or false, even if most of it was made up by her to deceive him, Lu Li had to listen to this 'story' completely before he could make some judgments in his heart.
Huang Xuan glanced at Lu Li and calmly repeated: "He said: It's you. I see. I understand."
"After saying these twelve words, he handed me a jade slip without any marks or characteristics. It completely recorded what I was going to do next. After I read it, the jade slip automatically destroyed."
At this point, Huang Xuan saw Lu Li's thoughtful expression and asked with a smile: "Isn't it weird? Even I find it weird. It seems like there is an invisible big hand controlling everything behind me. Even strong men like Mu Jing are just pawns, and I am probably just an insignificant part of this chess game."
"Desperate, right? I should be desperate. I thought I had a clear understanding of this world, but in the end I was just a frog in the well. I didn't know anything, and I couldn't imagine how terrifying this big chess game was. Only then are you eligible to participate.”
Huang Xuan spread her hands, "So, that's all I know about the whereabouts of Mu Jing and the real messenger behind this. If you really want to ask me, you won't get any results. In other words, maybe in To a certain extent, you and I are actually the same, we are both so ignorant, confused and scared about the current situation."
"Then why do you ask the Holy Kingdom royal family for help?"
Lu Li interrupted Huang Xuan's emotion, "Faced with this strange situation, shouldn't you be more cautious? After all, you don't know if the being behind you is still paying attention to you. Once your little actions are discovered by him, he will There is only a dead end."
"Instead of waiting to die, it is better to survive in death. Moreover, the answer for me to do so is already right in front of me."
Huang Xuan's eyes sparkled and she said with a smile: "Now that I have lured you out, my purpose has been achieved."
Lu Li took a deep look at Huang Xuan, pondered for a moment, and said calmly: "I think everything you said is true. Now let's sort it out from the beginning."
Huang Xuan stretched out her hand and signaled to Lu Li, 'please'.
Lu Li looked at her and said: "From the very beginning, you didn't know who was instructing you and why you wanted to replace His Majesty as the Emperor of the Holy Kingdom. Then didn't you try to ask your father for help? After all, someone with your status , suddenly disappeared in his own palace, there is no way that the Jitian Demon Emperor could just sit idly by."
This is considered a major flaw of Huang Xuan.
After listening to her 'story' in its entirety, although there was nothing logically wrong with it, one of the weirdest loopholes was the reaction of the Jitian Demon Kingdom.
You know, Huang Xuan is not a 'fashion' without any real power. As the Lord of Demonic Shadows and the most valued descendant of the Demon Emperor, her power and status in the Demon Kingdom is almost second only to that of the Demon Emperor.
If it was true as she said, a mysterious and powerful existence took her from the Jitian Demon Kingdom to the Devouring Heaven Holy Kingdom in an instant, then someone within the Jitian Demon Kingdom would have already discovered the identity of the eldest princess. Disappearance, even if it does not lead to all efforts to find it, will at least cause some turmoil.
However, Jitian Demon Kingdom did not seem to show any abnormality in this regard.
There are only two possibilities.
First, Huang Xuan was deceived. She was not forced at all, but had a certain purpose and sneaked into the Holy Kingdom Palace with the approval of the Demon Emperor.
Second, she was indeed missing, but during this period she had already reported her whereabouts to the Demon Emperor, saying that although her situation was not good, her life was not in danger.
If it is the second possibility, this can also explain why something suddenly happened to Lin Wangbei, and why there are five names from the Heaven-Swallowing Holy Kingdom in the list of Daxue Prefecture.
No matter how many possibilities I had thought about before, it was absolutely impossible for me to imagine that the 'emperor' of the Heaven-Swallowing Holy Kingdom had already been replaced.
For now, this is the most reasonable explanation.
But Huang Xuan kept it secret, proving that she still had her own plans.
"Why."
Under Lu Li's gaze, Huang Xuan sighed helplessly, "It seems that Manager Lu still doesn't want to believe me."
She seemed a little aggrieved by this, wrinkled her nose slightly, and then said: "Although I can understand the wariness, the feeling of not being trusted is really uncomfortable."
When she finished speaking, she closed her eyes and opened them again. There seemed to be fire-like light dancing in her red eyes. Her voice suddenly became cold and said: "You want to know the answer? Then I will tell you, why should I let myself go?" My father, who is invincible throughout the ancient times, does not ask for help, but he wants to cooperate with you, a stupid young man who has just entered the realm of Mingyou."
"The Demon Emperor you know is already dead."
"What's sitting in that position now is just a body that only knows how to kill, a controlled puppet!"
"To unify the ancient times and revive the Demon Sect are just excuses."
"Jitian Demon Kingdom, Devouring Heaven Holy Kingdom, including this war, are just a corner of the chess game. All our struggles, in the eyes of some beings, are just an insignificant flapping of wings by ants!"
"If I ask 'it' for help at this time, besides humiliating myself, what else can I get?"
When Huangxuan said this, she laughed at herself: "I believe that not long after I disappeared, even the demon shadow has been cleaned up by my 'mother queen'? Although the incident in Yanzhou is very similar to my style, I can tell You, that is not my method at all. After I leave, my good mother will definitely forge the proof that I still exist as quickly as possible, clear out my true confidants, and use the fastest speed to destroy this world's No. 1 A killer organization is in control."
"Immediately afterwards, she will open her arms to the divine religion, quickly attack the Heaven-Devouring Holy Kingdom from the inside, and complete some shameful plans."
Seeing Lu Li's expression becoming more and more solemn, Huang Xuan couldn't help but sneered: "How about it? This is the truth you want to know, this is the secret you really want to hear!"
"Compared to it, those so-called top masters, the wastes who are hiding and lingering, are not even qualified to be brought to the table!"
Huang Xuan's emotions fluctuated greatly, but Lu Li could really capture the despair hidden behind her words.
Faced with this situation, it was hard for her not to feel desperate.
Overnight, everything she owned had been reduced to nothing, and she realized that her life was shrouded in a huge conspiracy. Anyone else would feel indescribable despair.
"I still don't believe you."
After a long time, when Huang Xuan's mood gradually calmed down, Lu Li spoke calmly.
Huang Xuan was slightly startled, a look of disappointment flashed across her eyes, she sneered and was about to say something, but she saw Lu Li suddenly showed an extremely weird smile: "But the story you told is very interesting, even if it is false, I want to read it." Take a look and see what the 'real' world looks like."
