The unparalleled beauty of the face flickered under the candlelight, captivating and chilling for no reason.
His slender white fingers held a teacup, turned it gently, and smiled, "Since you know it's an interruption, why don't you invite yourself in? Shangguan Qingyun, when did you become so bold, so... annoying gone?"
At the door of the room, the man raised his head, revealing an old and pale face, it was the Great Elder Shangguan Qingyun.
He closed the door behind him casually, and then said with a slight smile: "I dare to enter without invitation and annoy the high priest because there is a deal to be made with the high priest. are interested."
Wei Zixi raised his eyebrows and said with a half smile but not a smile: "Oh, tell me, what kind of deal is it?"
The Great Elder took a step forward, his deep and cloudy eyes reflected the special candlelight in the Emperor's Palace, showing a strange blue light, "Get rid of Ji Mingyu, I don't know about the High Priest, are you interested?"
There was no surprise on Wei Zixi's face, instead he shook his teacup and took a sip, "It's up to you to get rid of Ji Mingyu?"
"It's not enough for me alone, but if the high priest is willing to help, I guarantee that my plan will be successful."
The Great Elder raised his head, and the light in his eyes became more and more dazzling, "High Priest, you have plotted against Ji Mingyu for so many years, and even used the Ice Prison, don't you want to really get rid of him? Not to mention, as long as you get rid of him Without him, Her Majesty the Holy Maiden will no longer belong to anyone. High Priest, are you really not moved?"
Wei Zixi slowly raised the corners of his lips, drank the tea in the cup, and the smile on his face became more and more seductive.
He said, "Okay, I'll work with you."

The hour slowly rolled into the wee hours of the morning, but the dawn sky was darker than ever.
Duanmu County was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night, and he had no intention of practicing.
Thinking of tomorrow, he will become the true successor of the God Emperor, and his whole body is full of excitement.
Just as he was tossing and turning, the window suddenly opened without wind, and a piece of jade slip flew towards him.
Duanmu County caught it casually, frowning slightly, sinking his consciousness into it.
There was only one sentence in the jade slip—come to the God Emperor’s Nave, this trip is related to whether you can sit on the throne of the God Emperor.
The central hall of the emperor is the place where the chaotic jade butterfly is stored, and it is also the main hall where the great elder Shangguan Qingyun conveyed the will of heaven a few days ago.
And that place is also the closest to the gate of the Emperor's Palace.
Duanmu County analyzed the aura of divine consciousness in the jade slips, but he couldn't guess who it came from.
He hesitated in his heart, whether he should listen to the jade slip or not, and go to the Emperor's Nave to have a look.
In his heart, he was afraid that this was a trap set by Ji Mingyu or Sikong Ye, but when he saw the sentence "it is related to whether you can sit on the throne of God Emperor", he couldn't bear it anymore.
If there is any chance, or if the Great Elder specifically mentioned him
What's more, there is Chaos Jade Butterfly there, even if someone really framed her, if Chaos Jade Butterfly can save herself once, she will naturally be able to save herself a second time.
After struggling, Duanmu County still walked out of the palace and headed for the Divine Emperor's Nave.
As soon as he arrived at the main hall, he saw a familiar figure.
"Sikong Ye, why are you here?" Duanmu County's expression darkened, and he suddenly thought of something, "Could it be that you also got the jade slip?"
Sikong Ye was also full of astonishment, "You also received the jade slip? Then... who is it that called us? What is the purpose?"
