Since Zhao Changying was still in a coma, Zhao Yan did not publicize the matter, but found a few trustworthy servants and temporarily placed him in an inconspicuous side room.

It wasn't until dusk that he opened his eyes.

His gaze lingered for a moment on the beams of the roof.

Then he turned his head and saw an unexpected, yet unfamiliar, figure sitting beside him.

"Luo Chuan? Why are you here? ”

"I am entrusted by the emperor to take care of you here."

"Emperor?" Zhao Changying frowned, "By the way, what about my daughter?" ”

In the few short minutes he had been a ghost, his consciousness was not fully awake, and his memories were naturally blurry.

But in the dark, he was very sure that his daughter Zhao Yan had appeared in front of him.

"Your daughter and the emperor have gone to inspect the military camp outside the city." Luo Chuan smiled and replied.

"Emperor, go to the special emperor," Zhao Changying was a little impatient by the word that frequently appeared in Luo Chuan's mouth, "Luo Chuan, can you speak human language?" Who is this emperor? Don't tell me it's the heavens that want to kidnap my daughter. ”

"Lao Zhao, for the sake of me rescuing you from the Luojing Palace, can you calm down?" Luo Chuan said as he rubbed out a black ball of light in his hand, "If you speak disrespectfully to the emperor again, don't blame me for putting this thing on your head." ”

Zhao Changying was silent for a few seconds, staring at the light cluster in Luo Chuan's hand, and muttered, "It turns out that you are really the eighth realm." ”

He knew that this seemingly harmless ball of light was actually a bunch of spatial cracks that were kneaded together like a mess, and as long as they touched it slightly, it would be instantly twisted into pieces.

Although ordinary saint powerhouses can travel through space, it is almost impossible for them to have such precise control over space.

Only a true monarch powerhouse with the "Dao Rule Domain" can play the spatial crack as a thread like Luo Chuan.

He couldn't help but think of the battle in the Imperial City of Luojing—

At that time, Luo Chuan showed fierce loyalty, claiming that "even if we die here today, we will never let you get one step closer to Your Majesty."

But as soon as he launched the "Dao Rule" Realm, Luo Chuan seemed to be attacked by the True Yuan, spitting blood from his mouth and fainting to the ground.

Looking back now, Zhao Changying can't help but praise Luo Chuan's superb acting skills in her heart.

and the space passage that helped him escape from the palace was undoubtedly set by Luo Chuan.

There's just one thing that Zhao Changying can't understand-

That's the motivation for Luo Chuan to do all this.

As the head of the highly respected Exorcism Division, why did he make such a move to betray the Great Qi Dynasty and betray the Tianxing Emperor?

Could it be because of the "emperor" he kept talking about?

Luo Chuan saw the confusion in Zhao Changying's heart.

But he didn't bother to tell the long story about Taishang Haotian and Emperor Ziwei, as well as their rebellion, so he put away the black light cluster in his hand, and then gently patted Zhao Changying's shoulder, pouring a memory directly into Zhao Changying's mind.

He was very satisfied to see that Zhao Changying's face showed a frowning and contemplative expression, staring at him, and suddenly realizing it.

"It turns out that you are actually the reincarnated Star Monarch," Zhao Changying said with emotion, "No wonder you have such a high level of cultivation and can hide in front of Emperor Tianxing for so long."

"It's just that these amazing secrets you told me must not be gratuitous, right?"

"That's right," Luo Chuan said with a smile, "I'm here to pull you into the rebellion on behalf of the emperor." ”

"I'm already a thief," Zhao Changying said, "Emperor Tianxing killed my wife." Even if you hadn't told me about the past, I would have been at odds with him. ”

"Of course we know that you are inseparable from Emperor Tianxing," Luo Chuan responded, "otherwise the Emperor would not have traveled all the way to this barren north to rescue you, a sloppy old thing, from the line of death." ”

"Alas, I thought that I was going to see Lord Yama this time. The spell that Emperor Tianxing hurt me seemed to be beyond the existing power level of the Great Wilderness. I can't think of any cure for it. ”

"That's what I thought. But the emperor's supernatural powers are vast, and they are always beyond your imagination. ”

Zhao Changying sighed softly: "Emperor, Emperor again...... To tell you the truth, when I first saw Gu Xu, I felt that he was extraordinary, especially when he resonated with the altar of the Fire God Temple, I even suspected that he was a messenger sent by the Fire God to the world.

"It's just that I never thought that he would hide such a powerful identity."

"Have you ever thought about a possibility?" Luo Chuan chuckled, "The god of fire that you people in the north believe in is actually an incarnation of Emperor Ziwei?" The reason why He stole the fire was because the people of the Great Wilderness were the same people who had followed Him? ”

"The god of fire is the incarnation of Emperor Ziwei", this statement was also discussed by Gu Xu and Luo Chuan before, in order to unify the beliefs of the Great Wilderness, so as to promote the realm of "returning to the ruins" more quickly.

When Gu Xu traveled back to ancient times, he was just a weak and helpless Fourth Realm monk who was chased and killed.

But his deeds have become more and more exaggerated and detached from reality in the word of mouth of generations of people in the north.

At this time, if someone makes the truth public, the people in the north will not only not believe it, but may also think that this person is "blasphemous".

"Heh," a complicated smile appeared on Zhao Changying's face, "The people of the Northern Territory and the people of the Central Plains have been arguing over the matter of faith for hundreds of years. At the end of the day, you tell me that we all believe in the same God. That's a ...... It's so interesting. ”

"No, it's not the same," Luo Chuan pointed out the error in his words, "what the people of the Central Plains believe in is just a lie woven by Taishang Haotian. What you believe in is the god who can save you from the dire situation.

"Lao Zhao, as of now, you already owe the emperor two lives - the time I saved you is also counted on the emperor. I know you're a grateful person. Do you need me to teach you how to do it now? ”

"I know what you want," Zhao Changying said, "My life is Gu Xu...... Well, the emperor picked it up. Sell the rest of my life to him, help him deal with Emperor Tianxing, and that Taishang Haotian, I don't have the slightest objection. ”

"What I want to ask is not just your personal choice," Luo Chuan shook his head lightly and said, "Your Zhao family's famous weapon is the 'Jade Horse Whip', a relic left by Zhao Ji, the third-generation Yan Guogong who is known as the 'Optimus Pillar Stone' of the Great Qi, and its name is taken from 'Trying to borrow the King's Jade Horse Whip and command Rong to sit on the Qiong Feast', but it has been accumulating dust in the storage magic weapon in recent years, and it can't exert its once powerful power——"

"-It's not because that bullshit emperor of Tianxing is not worthy of our allegiance." Zhao Changying snorted coldly.

"Lao Zhao, if I'm not mistaken, you raised the flag of rebellion in Luojing and entered the palace more because of your deceased wife and the pampering of a bunch of fanatics, rather than for the overall interests of Dayan, right?" Luo Chuan said earnestly and persuasively, "You should understand that the current Dayan is not the northern territory of a few hundred years ago, not only is it sparsely populated and poor in materials, but after the surrender of the Great Qi Taizu, whether it is food or cultivation resources, it is more and more dependent on trade with the Central Plains.

"Its foundation is no longer able to support an independent country. Self-reliance is not a long-term solution after all.

"Not to mention that after you locked yourself in that broken secret room, there is no saint powerhouse in the entire northern realm who can protect your grass platform regime. Once Emperor Tianxing frees up his strength to deal with you, all of you surnamed Zhao will be finished - what happened to the Lu clan in Qingzhou will be your fate in the future.

"I saw today that your young and beautiful daughter has grown a few gray hairs under this tremendous pressure......"

"Alas, Yan'er, I really can't stand her."

"In that case, why not follow your ancestors' example and let go of the flashy title of 'King of Yan' and follow a monarch who is more worthy of allegiance? I think your 'Jade Whip' must have been hungry and thirsty for a long time......"
