Chapter 518 Weakness
at the same time.

In an illusory space of consciousness, two identical figures faced each other.

One of them stood high on the golden throne, shrouded in radiance, looking majestic and solemn; the other stood under the long steps, in ragged clothes, with metal shackles on his hands and feet, and his face was shrouded in shadow.

"Xiao Zeyao, you have to remember," the figure on the high seat said calmly, "I released you from the ground this time just to deal with Zi Wei, not to let you do other things."

"I know, you have said this to me more than ten times, and my ears are calloused," the figure under the long stairs said impatiently, "Sometimes I really don't understand, as a member of Supreme Haotian, you Projection, which claims to be able to control everything in the world, cannot even be controlled by a sixth-level monk. It is even wary of a prisoner like me.

"You're not a paper tiger who is strong on the outside, but you're strong on the outside, right?"

The figure on the high seat did not respond.

As a consciousness projection of the supreme ruler of the upper world, he never bothered to explain to the prisoners in the prison.Now, the reason why he cannot directly eliminate the group of rebels headed by Gu Xu is because the rules of the two worlds are different. Every time he uses power across borders, he will pay a huge price.

The golden thunder summoned on the day of the Luoshui Conference caused serious backlash to his body.

But he wasn't panicking at all.

No matter how chaotic the wilderness is today, it has nothing to do with him.

When the passage between the two realms is completed again and his body can descend into the wilderness, all problems will no longer be a problem.

After a brief silence, the figure on the high seat spoke lightly again: "Zi Wei has a magic weapon in his hand that allows him to see everything that is happening in the wilderness. Don't be too smart and fall into his trap."

Hearing this, the figure at the bottom of the stairs laughed loudly: "Many times, seeing too many things is not necessarily a good thing. Maybe this will become his weakness!"

…………

"The Emperor is here today. Why do you want to do this?"

Shangguan Jin, who was sorting out official documents, raised his head and asked calmly.

She had a plain face, thin cheeks, and a pair of beautiful willow eyes, reflecting the figure of the man in green shirt in front of her, but there was no emotion at all.

Gu Xu has long been accustomed to her cold attitude these days.

He dragged a wooden chair from the side and sat opposite Shangguan Jin.

"There is something I need your and 'Qing Ming's help with."

"The emperor just gave the order directly, why bother to discuss it with me."

"Wenchang should have told you that Xiao Zeyao's ghost body has been released." Gu Xu did not follow her around the bush and got down to business. "He has been imprisoned underground for many years, and his stomach is full of all kinds of things." They will use all kinds of dark tricks to deal with us.

"Although we have raised the flag of rebellion, there are still many relatives and friends we care about on the territory of Daqi. I hope to send people to protect them - if they are willing, we can bring them as far as possible On our territory to prevent Xiao Zeyao from making a fuss about them."

After saying that, he took out a thick stack of lists from "Xianyun Residence" and handed it to Shangguan Jin.

Shangguan Jin took the list and browsed it quickly.

In the middle of the list, she saw many familiar names, such as "Shi Xiaohan", "Chen Jisheng", "Wang Yang", etc., and even maids like "Chen Xi" were not left behind.

Shangguan Jin frowned slightly and looked at Gu Xu seriously, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

In her opinion, the Gu Xu in front of her was no longer the young man he once was.

The high and mighty Emperor Ziwei of Zhongtian Arctic may have given up some of his original obsessions in order to better integrate with this body.

But it is impossible for him to value every cause and effect and every bond of the original body so highly, care so much, and consider it so thoughtfully.At this moment, an incredible thought came to her mind -

Is it possible that the boy is still alive?

Emperor Tianxing, who was controlled by Supreme Supreme Haotian, could quietly create a ghost body of residual thoughts and linger under the deep well.

When faced with Emperor Ziwei's seizure of his body, could Gu Xu also have a back-up plan?

But Shangguan Jin quickly put this idea behind him.

When Emperor Tianxing took over the "Tai'a Sword", he was already an eighth-level monk; and when Gu Xu was taken away, he was only in the fifth level. How could he possibly be able to fight against the former Supreme Being of the Upper Realm?

The list in front of him must be a performance by Emperor Ziwei to win her loyalty.

"Yes, Emperor."

Shangguan Jin agreed, his tone calm.

Seeing her nodding, Gu Xu smiled with satisfaction and stood up from the chair.

The reason why he asked Shangguan Jin to do this instead of Luo Chuan was because he was worried that Luo Chuan would see the flaws and discover that he was not the real Emperor Ziwei.

But Shangguan Jin is different.

Even if she discovers a flaw, she will conceal the secret for Gu Xu and willingly provide him with help.

At this moment, a charming voice floated in from outside the window:

"Husband, I have been looking for you in the house for a long time, but I didn't expect you to be hiding here."

The person coming was none other than Zhao Yan.

Her eyes were wandering and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised. She was wearing a bright red dress, which was in sharp contrast to Shangguan Jin's simple and elegant green dress.

She pushed open the door, walked straight to Gu Xu, took his arm and walked outside: "It's getting late, now we should go back to the room to practice. If my husband doesn't seize the time to improve his cultivation, then Tian Xing will What should I do if the ghost of the emperor comes to my door?"

Although Gu Xu was a little tired after going through all the trouble last night, he didn't want to show weakness in front of Zhao Yan, so he smiled and nodded, saying, "When I practice today, I must let the saint see my husband." sharp".

Zhao Yan expressed her disbelief, but quietly and tightly wrapped her arms around Gu Xu's waist, even touching her cheek to his shoulder, as if she was obsessed with the aura on his body.

The two figures quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Shangguan Jin watched them leave, her pale lips pursed into a thin line.

He was motionless and his eyes were in a trance, as if he had turned into a sculpture.

After a long time, she came back to her senses and continued to sort out the documents on the table with concentration, as if nothing had happened.

…………

"The new informants sent by me to the six northwest cities have now lost contact with Luo Jing. According to the results of the divination, they were all arrested by the rebels.

"The rebels' ability to obtain intelligence requires us to attach great importance to it. If nothing else, there should be many moles hidden in our court."

That night, Princess Zhaoning summoned several important officials from the Da Qi Dynasty into the palace and said with a solemn face.
