Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 334: Do you know your father is a demon?

Luo Wanyi struggled to lift her head and looked at the members of the Tongtian Pavilion from all over the world, who were paying their respects to the new Pavilion Master in the ruins of the Jinluan Hall in the Great Qin Imperial City. She felt hopeless.

Under the leadership of the six elders, the members from all over the world paid their respects to Su Yun, which meant that the Tongtian Pavilion from both the domestic and overseas regions now had a nominal co-leader.

Although she still held the esteemed position of the Holy Emperor of Da Qin, she was now just an ordinary member of the Tongtian Pavilion.

She knew she had lost.

"If I had fought him on the day he landed in the Western Land, perhaps things would not have turned out like this..."

At that time, Su Yun knew nothing about the Western Continent and his cultivation level was only at the Beginning Movement Realm. She was a hundred percent confident that she could defeat him in a battle.

Unfortunately, she couldn't go back to that day.

Her eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and she finally passed out.

When Luo Wanyi woke up, she found herself lying on a sickbed. She struggled to sit up, and the palace maid, who heard the sound, was both shocked and delighted, exclaiming, "Your Majesty is awake! Holy Emperor is awake! I must inform the Supreme Holy Emperor!"

Luo Wanyi struggled to sit up, but she had a splitting headache and felt weak in her limbs. A palace maid quickly approached and helped her up.

"How long have I been asleep?"

"Your Majesty, you have been unconscious for more than ten days."

The voice of the Supreme Holy Emperor Luo Yujin came from outside the door, calmly saying, "During your ten-day sleep, I managed the court affairs and stabilized the situation."

He walked in, composed and calm, giving people a sense of tranquility even in the face of a collapsing sky.

Luo Wanyi struggled to kneel on the sickbed and expressed her gratitude.

Luo Yujin's gaze fell on her, and a smile appeared on his lips. "Your Majesty, do you know the current situation?"

Luo Wanyi remained kneeling on the sickbed, motionless. "I do not know, Your Majesty."

"After you fell asleep, I dealt with the chaos left by the Pavilion Master. The ninety-six gods and demons wreaked havoc in Yundu, causing heavy casualties among the empire's gods and saints, and severe losses in various armies."

Luo Yujin calmly recounted the thrilling events that had taken place in the past ten days.

Su Yun's release of the demonic gods swept through Yundu, defeating the gods and demons guarding Da Qin, such as Taisui and Jialouluo. Taisui was even captured and used as food, suffering greatly.

Both Martial Saint Jiang Zushi and National Teacher Yu Daoyuan were severely injured in the war.

Afterwards, the demonic gods started fighting each other, wreaking havoc in the mountains and rivers of Da Qin.

The sealed gods and demons in Su Yun's childhood memories were originally divided into many factions. Some came from ancient times, some fell with the Tianyuan constellation, some were summoned by ancient mages to this world, and some were sent by the immortal realm. Some even crossed the stars and came from other worlds.

The grudges between them were also very complicated. For example, those who had been beaten by the Winged Dragon, suppressed by the Winged Dragon, mocked by the Winged Dragon, or teased by the Winged Dragon, naturally had a strong desire for revenge when they met their enemies.

This chaotic situation was poured onto the Western Continent, and the extent of the chaos could be imagined. Not only was Da Qin affected, but all the countries in the Western Continent were also affected. Various natural disasters appeared, with fire spirits living in volcanoes, erupting and turning magma into lakes and seas.

When the Drought Snake passed by, the land turned into a barren desert, with no vegetation. The Drought Snake and the Winged Dragon traveled together, and even the rivers and lakes in the martial world were dried up by them.

There were also strong winds that stirred up hurricanes on the sea, and Wuzhiqi caused floods. The floods swept through fertile fields, and Zhu Yan caused earthquakes, splitting the earth. There were thunderstorms and meteor showers in the sky, and various disasters swept across the Western Continent. It was these demonic gods that caused the calamity.

The Western Continent's countries had originally planned to raise troops and cross the sea to attack Yuanshuo. But now, their territories were occupied by the demonic gods, and they had no time to wage war externally.

Some small countries directly pledged allegiance to the demonic gods, building temples and altars for them, offering them food and drink. The worshipped demonic gods then launched wars and attacked other countries, with some demonic gods personally leading their armies. The conflicts between the countries escalated.

"Your Majesty, I have reorganized the power of the court for you and eliminated the rebellious demonic gods. Only then did I realize that the war between the countries is spreading wider and wider, and it has already reached Da Qin."

Luo Yujin spoke unhurriedly, "Within Da Qin, there are also many demonic gods who have established their own territories and are engaged in wars. As you know, it's not just the demonic gods who are fueling the flames."

Luo Wanyi remained kneeling there and said, "I know. Whether it is Da Qin or other countries like Da Xia, they have reached a point where they must go to war and plunder in order to survive."

The causes of this war that was about to engulf the entire Western Continent were complex. In addition to the demonic gods, the larger cause was within the various countries of the Western Continent.

The aristocratic families had already swallowed up ninety-nine percent of the wealth of the various countries.

The common people could live well on ordinary days, but they couldn't sustain their livelihoods in the face of disasters. If the aristocratic families did not start a war and plunder wealth, then it would not be the country that would be destroyed, but themselves.Therefore, the aristocratic families of various countries in the Western Region also actively followed the demons to participate in the war, plundering wealth and distributing it to the people. As long as they don't touch their own wealth, everything is fine.

As the Little Holy Emperor of Da Qin, Luo Wanyi understood this very well.

"Your Majesty, do you know how to turn the tide and save Da Qin and the Western Region from danger?" Luo Yujin asked.

"I know."

Luo Wanyi's spiritual power moved, and she took out the immortal scroll that was worshipped on the altar in her spiritual realm. She respectfully held it up and said, "Please accept this treasure, Father Emperor."

Luo Yujin's gaze fell on the floating immortal scroll, revealing a satisfied smile. He said softly, "This is for your education. You shouldn't take things that you shouldn't. Your Majesty, do you understand?"

"I have learned my lesson."

"You may rise."

Luo Wanyi reluctantly sat up and watched him take the immortal scroll. Luo Yujin had countless ways to take it from her, but he didn't act directly. Instead, he wanted her to willingly offer the immortal scroll.

This was the principle of humans and demons. If one refused, demons would not force others. However, those who refused often paid a greater price.

Luo Wanyi was one such person, and the price she paid exceeded imagination.

"Father Emperor, what about Su Yun?"

Luo Wanyi's eyes were empty, but when she mentioned Su Yun, a hint of radiance returned to her eyes. "He suppressed so many gods and demons, and now he has released them. His fate must be very miserable, right?"

Luo Yujin shook his head. "Those gods and demons dare not touch him."

Luo Wanyi showed a disappointed expression. "Are they afraid of his seal? Now, as long as they make a move, they can leave him with no place to bury his body. These gods and demons are truly cowardly creatures!"

She took a breath and continued, "Then, what about the experts of Da Qin? Has no one avenged Yue Liuxi, the Saint of Moon Flow Creek, for the scholars of Jian Ge?"

Luo Yujin shook his head and said leisurely, "No one has mentioned him. It's as if they have forgotten about him. Even if someone mentions him, they keep silent and dare not talk about it."

Luo Wanyi's gaze became dull, and she murmured, "How could this be?"

"Moreover, someone saw Su Yun on Lanling Street. He is still the Deputy Historian of the Supervisory Office of Yuanshuo, and he recently went to Jian Ge to teach and made up for the lesson he missed on Yinghuo Continent. He received two months' salary from Jian Ge."

Luo Yujin said, "He is in Jian Ge, and the scholars there seem to have forgotten their hatred. Moreover, the people from the Heavenly Pavilion have already cleared his name. There are signs that he will be vindicated."

Luo Wanyi's gaze dimmed.

"I hope Your Majesty will cheer up."

Luo Yujin smiled and said, "Isn't this chaos what Your Majesty hopes for? Your Majesty knows well that in order to resolve the internal conflicts of Da Qin and prolong its existence, we must invade and plunder wealth externally. Isn't this a great opportunity? As for whether it is Yuanshuo that is invaded, what difference does it make? This is only Your Majesty's failure, not Da Qin's failure."

Luo Wanyi's gaze gradually brightened.

Luo Yujin said, "The God Emperor who controls the Heavenly Court needs a turmoil, and the demons who caused the Pan Yang Rebellion also need one. They all need a war that sweeps across various countries. But Your Majesty, isn't it the same for you? Su Sect Master's actions have fulfilled our wishes."

He walked towards the door, suddenly stopped, and smiled. "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about me being obsessed with power. The power you care about means nothing in my eyes. All I want is immortality."

Luo Wanyi watched him leave and whispered, "Father Emperor, have you achieved immortality? Do you want to forever be the Holy Emperor and never leave this position..."

She gradually became excited and, after another two days, she could finally get out of bed and walk.

After another few days, although Luo Wanyi still couldn't handle court affairs, her cultivation had finally recovered somewhat, and she no longer needed to take as much medicine.

Her injuries were still severe, but her life was not in danger.

She changed into women's clothing and quietly left the palace, walking in the Cloud City. She saw the craftsmen of Cloud City busy repairing the damage caused by the gods and demons.

"Hateful..."

Luo Wanyi felt a pain in her heart. She walked on the streets of Cloud City, unable to bear seeing the scars of this city, but unable to resist looking.

Suddenly, Luo Wanyi saw Lanling Street and her heart trembled. Unconsciously, she had come to this dilapidated street.

"Since I'm here, I should visit him."

Luo Wanyi gritted her teeth and walked towards the Yuan Shuo Embassy at the head of Lanling Street, thinking, "I am also a member of the Heavenly Pavilion, and as the Sect Master, he has the responsibility to protect me."

At this moment, in the Heavenly Pavilion, Su Yun was sitting across from a young man with dragon horns, his face solemn.

"Brother, are you saying that someone is hunting demons?" Su Yun asked in surprise.

The young man in the yellow shirt with dragon horns was Winged Dragon. He nodded and said, "In the past two days, I tried to capture them and send them back to the Ghost Market of Tianmen, but I found that many demons had already been killed."

Just as they were speaking, Xing Jiangmu came to report, "Young Historian, there is a girl claiming to be Luo Wanyi seeking an audience."He hesitated for a moment. The name Luo Wanyi was not unfamiliar to him. Su Yun had once referred to the Holy Emperor of Da Qin as Luo Wanyi in front of him and the entire civil and military officials of Da Qin.

Moreover, there had been recent rumors that the Holy Emperor of Da Qin was a woman named Luo Wanyi, who usually bound her chest and disguised herself as a man, thus ascending to the throne.

Ying Ying became excited: "A lady? The little Holy Emperor is cross-dressing? Scholar Su, this must be a beauty trap she's using because she can't defeat you!"

"A beauty trap?"

Su Yun's eyes lit up, he pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Let her in, I do love a beauty trap."

Luo Wanyi walked in, paying her respects to Su Yun: "Wanyi greets the Pavilion Master."

Su Yun looked her up and down, secretly approving, while Ying Ying was displeased, whispering in his ear: "Constantly binding her chest, making it smaller, it's unfair to the child, it's not good."

Su Yun turned a deaf ear, smiling and said: "Wanyi, do you know your father is a demon?"
