Chapter Thirty-Eight: Falling Water: Puzzle Solution
After the end of the West Sea incident, the God Emperor did not condemn Xiheng, but instead made him stay in Yong'an during the demon clan's mourning period. After this major change, the demon clan fell into unprecedented restlessness. On the one hand, it was because two demon emperors had passed away in just a hundred years, and on the other hand, it was because Changle practiced the evil path and was also involved in the evil god Lian Xun.
Under the push of many forces, Xiheng was finally pushed to the position. After all, Yong'an was married to him, but he had not finished his marriage. According to etiquette, he was also the most favored candidate for the demon emperor. He was addicted to the pain of losing his wife and had no intention of taking office. He had to temporarily take over the position of the demon emperor. The person in charge of the position will be discussed again.
For a time, internal strife occurred frequently in the demon clan.
As the current patriarch of the demon clan, Danshu has to deal with various government affairs and is busy every day.
Although Danshu didn't know the whole story, she could guess that Changle's actions must have angered the God Emperor. However, with Changle's current status, the God Emperor thought that the God Emperor had no choice but to put it aside for the time being. Changle's father Xihe was placed under house arrest by the God Emperor.
Danshu was happy in her heart. She didn't want to get involved in this kind of dispute, but unfortunately, she had to do so.
While she and Danshu's aunt and nephew were in charge of all the affairs of the clan, they were inquiring about the news. Unexpectedly, before they could find out the whereabouts of Changle and Lian Xun, they received urgent reports from the demon world.
It turned out that when Lian Xun left the West Sea, the demon world suffered a catastrophe. Overnight, tens of thousands of people of the demon clan died. This battle not only completely collapsed the alliance between the two gods and demons, but also seriously injured the demon clan's vitality. Four demon kings died, and the clan leader was also under house arrest. Changle and Danshu's aunt and nephew were forced to return to the divine realm.
The God Emperor was extremely angry because Lian Xun had bloody battles across the demon clan overnight.
He sent the gods of the Heavenly Court to investigate, but Lian Xun's whereabouts were vague and he could hardly find him, let alone capture him.
"Liang Xun is really brave," Changle gritted his teeth and said hatefully, "He dares to take action on our territory. Aren't he afraid of arousing public anger?"
"We should not come forward for this matter," Danshu analyzed calmly, "He is very strong, and at this time, the two realms of gods and demons are already tense. If we intervene now, it will only backfire and trigger unnecessary battles. Moreover, his killing with a knife makes people very beautiful. If we come forward now, it will only make the God Emperor more afraid of us, and it will also lose the talk, which is not conducive to Changle's restoration of the position of Goddess."
Hearing this, Changle nodded.
Danshu paused and said, "But I still want to advise you not to be stubborn anymore. Since you have married Lian Xun, you cannot be confused with him anymore. Otherwise, you will only cause you a catastrophe. Do you understand?"
Changle lowered his head and said softly: "I know."
"It's best if you know it," Danshu saw her humble attitude, and her tone couldn't help but slow down a little, and said earnestly, "Changle, I hope you think clearly. Along the way, your thoughts are clear. If you are obsessed with it, in the end, you will only lose the favor of the God Emperor. Moreover, you will not only lose the protection of the God Emperor, but even his last trace of trust in you will be deprived."
Hearing this, Changle's face suddenly turned pale. Her hands clenched her fists tightly, as if she had used all her strength to control herself from not smashing the teacup in her hand towards Danshu.
"I understand all these."
She raised her eyes, and a firm gaze flashed in her eyes.
She understood all this, but she was unwilling to give up just like that.
Now it is impossible for Lian Xun to marry her again, but she doesn't care. All she wants is to see Lian Xun at all times, even if he appears as a god, it doesn't matter.
She knew that her request was a little too much, but she couldn't control her heart.
"I..." Changle was about to speak, but suddenly he heard someone outside hurried into the house and reported: "Clan leader, elder, and the Emperor of God have arrived."
When Danshu heard this, she hurriedly went out, and Changle quickly got up, lowered her head and retreated to the dark place, not daring to speak.
She could feel that the God Emperor was coming for her.
In a moment, the God Emperor had already stepped into the inner room.
"Changle, I heard that you are looking for me?" He asked as soon as he entered the door, his voice with a cold and stern voice.
Danshu was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Yes, I won't hide it from the God Emperor, I have this intention."
"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?" The Emperor of God sat on the bed, looking leisurely, as if he was waiting for Danshu's answer.
"I thought," Danshu pondered the words and after a while, she said, "The God Emperor is the Supreme Lord. I am a mortal, how dare I disturb the God Emperor."
"Oh?" The Emperor of God raised his eyebrows, "That's better. I will do a favor and give you a good fortune?"
"Creation?" Danshu was surprised, "Where does the God Emperor start with this?"
"You don't need to know. In short, as long as you do this, I guarantee that your status in the demon world will not change. Moreover, I can guarantee that as long as you no longer have contact with Lian Xun, I will give you everything you want."
Hearing this, Changle's face changed.
She knew that everything the God Emperor refers to naturally includes her own body.
Danshu's face also changed slightly, and she didn't know how to answer.
"Changle, have you considered it?" The God Emperor looked directly at her, with a strong sense of oppression.
Danshu pursed her lips and gritted her teeth and said, "Divine Emperor, you have to think clearly that your identity is here, so you can give up your power so easily, I'm afraid..."
"What are you afraid of?" The Emperor of God smiled faintly, "I want to see, who dares to commit rash here?"
Danshu suffocated, and a bitterness curled up on the corner of her mouth.
"Okay, Changleding should do his best to serve the God Emperor!"
"Very good," the God Emperor nodded with satisfaction, "Danshu, I believe you, you will be a very outstanding heir."
Danshu was stunned and immediately said, "Thank you for your praise, but Changle still wants to advise you to think twice."
The God Emperor's eyes flashed.
"I don't like being threatened."
Danshu's face turned pale.
When Danshu came out of the temple, her face turned pale as paper.
She didn't know whether she should be glad that she had successfully convinced the God Emperor or she should be sad that she had been exploited.
Danshu walked, and replied in her mind what the Emperor said: I believe in you, you will be a very outstanding heir.
The Emperor of God said this and spoke a gentle and calm tone, as if he was just saying a fact.
Danshu was not stupid, and she soon realized another meaning behind this sentence.
She is the pawn of the God Emperor, but her father has become the puppet of the God Emperor. However, the God Emperor did not say it clearly.
Her mother is a demon, her father is a snake, and a poisonous snake.
There is no airtight wall in this world, and her life experience has finally been discovered.
Her mother died of illness when she was ten years old, and her father was also implicated by this incident. He was expelled from the divine realm and became a slave to the demon world. He became haggard and became haggard until he was over 100 years old. He had a glimmer of hope. He survived until now, but he was still in peace.
Danshu was very unwilling to accept it, why is their fate so unfair?
However, her mother taught her that everything should be followed step by step and should not be too hasty, otherwise it will backfire.
Her mother was too soft-hearted, so she suffered a loss and was used to die.
Moreover, her father once told her that there is no love for no reason and no hatred for no reason in this world. All good is based on a certain basis. If you cannot control the other party in your own hands, then you will never expect to gain the other party's trust. This is a dangerous trust. You can understand it as a kind of attacking the mind, because you will never guess clearly when your enemy will attack.
Danshu's heart was filled with deep hatred. If one day she could take revenge, she would have to make the God Emperor pay the price of bleeding. She would let him know what the price of hurting her mother was!
"What are you talking about?" A familiar and cold voice interrupted the conversation.
Changle turned his head and saw Lian Xun standing not far from them, staring at them with deep eyes.
"Why are you here again?" Lian Xun frowned, with a somewhat blame-like tone, "Have you forgotten? We are allies, and you should trust me, not doubt my intention."
Lian Xun did not know how to observe his words and expressions, nor did he know how to judge the situation. However, he knew more clearly that once Danshu stood on their opposite side, it would be extremely unfavorable to them.
"I'm just here to confirm whether your promise can be fulfilled." Lian Xun walked closer to her step by step until he came to her, stretched out his hand, trying to touch her.
Changle couldn't hide and directly crashed into Lian Xun's arms.
Lian Xun's hand was stiff in the air and it took him a long time to withdraw it, but the smile on his face became brighter, "You can be good at this."
Danshu couldn't help rolling her eyes when she looked at Lian Xun's successful appearance.
"Miss Danshu, you are my fiancée. Please take care of me in the future!"
A trace of disgust flashed through Danshu's eyes.
"Lian Xun, since we have become sworn brothers now, you should call me elder sister, not Miss Danshu."
Lian Xun's face changed slightly, "Are you really planning to break up with the Dan family?"
"yes!"
"You are not worried that the Dan family will cause trouble for you? After all, their eldest son is in my hands now."
Danshu's face suddenly sank, "This little trick can't fool me at all."
"Oh?" Lian Xun smiled with interest, "It seems that Miss Danshu has found something. Why not take it out and share it? Maybe I will help you?"
"Ha~" Danshu mocked, "Will you help me?"
"What? Do you think your strength is stronger than Mr. Dan?" Lian Xun sneered disdainfully, "Miss Danshu, I know that although Mr. Dan is not weak, he is not at the top in the entire immortal clan. If I am willing, I can get rid of him at any time, and my strength is still above him."
Danshu's face became more and more ugly. She clenched her fists tightly to suppress her anger, "Is that so? Then what qualifications do you have to say such things?"
