That's What Villains Are Like

"Sister, she has been busy practicing a skill recently, and she really can't escape. I hope you will forgive me..."

"Sister, she actually misses the young master very much, so after getting this thing, she asked me to come over and give it to the young master as soon as possible."

Chu Yun lowered his head, looking very dull and honest, and answered exactly what his sister Chu Chan told him.

"oh?"

"Looking at it this way, Chan'er is indeed interested."

Jiang Lan smiled.

He vaguely guessed what Chu Chan was thinking. During this period, Chu Chan had changed a lot. Whether it was cultivation or power, it could be said to be earth-shaking compared to before.

Although he didn't deliberately pay attention to Chu Chan's every move, he could still determine her movements through the feedback of luck.

Chu Chan has great ambitions. If she wants to surpass her, she must be far stronger than her.

At first, Chu Chan relied on him not out of sincerity, but because she wanted to borrow his background and power.

During this period of time, Chu Chan didn't take the initiative to contact him. Jiang Lan actually knew some of her thoughts.

But now, Chu Chan took the initiative to hand over the origin of the Seven Stars, but she did not show up. This was actually testing Jiang Lan's attitude towards her.

"I will accept the things. Tell your sister later that I don't care what she thinks. On the contrary, the more powerful she is, the more I appreciate her..."

"Compared to vulgar vases, I prefer vines that wrap around towering trees and can even take all the nutrients from the trees for themselves."

Jiang Lan waved his hand. Although there was a smile on his face, his words were somewhat meaningful.

"I understand. I will tell my sister what you said later." Chu Yun lowered his head, but cold sweat quietly appeared on his back.

Jiang Lan nodded, picked up the Sumeru Ring in Chu Yun's hand, played with it casually, and said again, "The origin of the seven stars came into the world, and it was a gift from God. However, an ordinary man is not guilty of harboring a jade. How much is the land of Kyushu?" The living beings fought for this thing, causing a bloody storm and destroying their families."

"Your sister is a smart person. Later, you ask her to keep the origin of the other seven stars well, so as not to let the news leak out, attract covetous people, and get into trouble."

"Young Master, I may not be able to keep her when the time comes."

Hearing this, Chu Yun was shocked. Although he tried his best to remain calm on his face, there was a turmoil in his heart.

He raised his head and glanced at Jiang Lan, but what he met was those deep and intriguing eyes.

Chu Yun hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Yes, I will definitely tell my sister this when I get back."

He was shocked and horrified, and couldn't figure out how Jiang Lan knew that his sister had the origin of two seven stars.

He originally thought that after offering one, no matter how powerful Jiang Lan was, he would not be able to get it from his sister. In fact, there were two seven-star origins.

At this moment, Chu Yun was sweating in his heart, and a gust of wind blew, making his back feel wet.

When he came into contact with Jiang Lan in Anyang City before, he only thought that he was a powerful second-generation ancestor who did not have much ability. But now, everything tells him that Jiang Lan is probably one of the most unfathomable people in the world. one.

How on earth did he know all this? Is it true that he is the future Emperor of Heaven as the rumors say?

Chu Yun didn't dare to stay for a long time. He felt that he couldn't hide his secret from Jiang Lan at all.

In front of Jiang Lan, he seemed like a transparent person.

Soon, Chu Yun hurriedly said goodbye without even drinking tea.

Jiang Lan did not hold back. With his current cultivation and status, many things did not need to be as secretive as before. Showing his holiness in front of others and building his reputation were all in preparation for the next plan.

"The origin of heavenly power..."

Then, Jiang Lan looked at the dense mass sealed in the Sumeru Ring. There were dots of stars in it, and they were extremely gorgeous, like a star shrunk countless times, surrounded by a layer of nebula-like material, and sometimes Swell and sometimes shrink.

Nowadays, the seven-star origins have basically appeared in the world. Fa Miaoyin has the fluctuating light origin, Jiang Yuheng has the Yuheng origin, Chu Chan has the Tianshu origin, and the Tianxuan origin that Xiao Teng had before is now in his hands.

Together with the source of Tianquan in front of him, he has two seven-star sources in his hand.

"If my prediction is correct, the inheritor of the origin of Kaiyang Star who appeared in Dongyuan State will eventually die in the hands of Xue Wuchen."

"The origin of Tianji has not been found yet."

Jiang Lan thought.

For him, the Seven Star Origin has little meaning and use. All he cares about is the destiny and great luck contained in it. After all, Fa Miaoyin is his person and can give him a lot of luck in return.

As long as Chu Chan knocks it, she will understand how to do it.

Afterwards, he accepted the origin of Tianquan, and then drove away all the servants. An invisible force enveloped and spread in Niwan Palace, wrapping it up.

Jiang Lan began to refine and absorb the luck from the source of Tianquan.

As for the wonderful truth of the stars contained in it, he has already controlled it in the process of refining and absorbing its destiny.

When he refined and absorbed Tianxuan's origin before, he had already noticed that the inheritance and creation corresponding to each seven-star origin were similar, but the corresponding star fields in the sky were different.

And these inherited creations can help monks practice to the realm of saints, and there are almost no obstacles in this process.

When Jiang Lan was absorbing and refining, he was actually blending these inherited creations, integrating them and turning them into his own use.

In the evening, Jiang Lan finished his training. When he stepped into the Chengming Hall of the imperial palace, Emperor Xia, who was wearing a dark red black bird robe, was sitting with his legs crossed on the big brocade bed on the soft carpet paved with brocade. Just stepping on the jade feet without socks, the instep is delicate, the skin is like jade, and it is so white that even the faint blood vessels can be seen.

The hall is filled with a pleasant fragrance, which makes people think of the warm fragrance and warm jade, the soft moon and the beauty of flowers.

Chunlan stood quietly beside Emperor Xia. Seeing Jiang Lan come in, she bowed to him and then stepped back wisely.

"This morning I handed over all the affairs of the court to the Minister of Internal Affairs and the Nine Ministers. Starting from tomorrow, I will focus on cultivation."

"As for the meeting between the DPRK and China, I will leave it to the Prime Minister to decide. Starting from tomorrow, the ministers do not have to come to the DPRK every day. The meeting will be held once every six months or every three months to determine the basic situation of the DPRK and China..."

After Jiang Lan came in, Emperor Xia changed to a more ladylike approach, lowering his crossed legs and informing her of her plans at the same time.

When she announced this today, there was a stir in the DPRK.

Many ministers thought it was inappropriate and felt that this was a sign of being ignored.

How can an emperor leave all matters to the Minister of Internal Affairs and the Nine Qings to resolve, and also let the Prime Minister preside over the meeting between the DPRK and China?

At first glance, isn’t this a direct denial of all rights?

In the past, the Confucian faction of civil servants who had always maintained a neutral attitude rarely refuted today. Several royal family members were also alerted and came to stop it.

However, Emperor Xia's attitude was very firm. She could also see that Daxia had reached a point where it was too big to lose. If it was not dealt with in a drastic way, if it continued, the problem would only become more serious.

In the past, she would definitely not have trusted Xiang Guo so much and let him preside over the North Korea-China meeting.

But now, even if she secures this position, she actually relies on the support of the Prime Minister's Office, so her worries are of no use.

"This is a good thing. From now on, you can focus on your cultivation. When you are strong enough, you can just suppress the enemy in the dark with force."

"After all, Daxia is not a small ordinary country. In this world, the size of your fist speaks for itself." Jiang Lan agreed with her decision.

If he becomes emperor, the first thing he will do is to mobilize the whole country to help him practice.

When he is strong enough, he will use his own force to maintain the operation of a country, intimidate the villains from all directions, and feed his own country.

And Emperor Xia is obviously delayed by the many troubles and problems in Daxia, making them a burden on herself, forcing her to focus on how to deal with and solve these problems and troubles.

But she forgot that the reason why she had all these troubles was entirely because she was not strong enough.

She was not strong enough, and all the vassal kings, princes with different surnames, and even the national master Ge Qixing were all ready to move and covet her position.

Emperor Xia rarely refuted Jiang Lan's words.

"I am only at the first step of the Bridge Tribulation Realm. I am afraid that National Master Ge Qixing has survived six or seven heavenly tribulations. In the battle at the Goddess Palace, he forced four powerful men to retreat in the Goddess Palace. That ancestor-level figure is probably someone who has survived six or seven heavenly tribulations..."

"This is enough to show that the strength of the national master is still above the ordinary supreme power." There was some worry in her eyes.

"The world will change greatly in the future. As the Lord of Great Xia, the benefits you will receive will far exceed those of anyone else. Your current cultivation level does not mean anything." Jiang Lan comforted.

Emperor Xia is much quieter today than before. Dressed in casual clothes, she is less aggressive than before, and her eyebrows are much softer.

"You actually comfort me..."

She stretched out her hand and wrapped a strand of black hair hanging from her temples around her long, white fingertips. This look gave her a more feminine look that she had never had before.

Jiang Lan smiled and said, "Is it possible that at this time, you still want me to scold you?"

"You dare?" Emperor Xia's eyebrows suddenly rose.

However, looking at Jiang Lan, who was always smiling, her expression softened inexplicably, and she said, "Do you think that I have always been cruel to you?"

"Although you often help me think about things, make suggestions, and solve problems for me, I have always been cruel to you and my attitude towards you is not very good..."

When she asked this question, she didn't even notice it. She clenched her other hand quietly, as if she was very nervous about the answer to this question.

Jiang Lan didn't seem to know that her whole body was tense at this time.

Hearing this, he thought seriously for a while, and then replied, "Sometimes it can be really cruel. I mean it with good intentions, but in the end I will be a little sad by your bad words. Then I will wonder, isn't it? A little self-indulgent and nosy..."

"I……"

Emperor Xia hesitated when he heard the words. He subconsciously wanted to explain, but he didn't know what to say. He could only interrupt him and said, "It's nothing. I never thought you were nosy."

Jiang Lan always had a gentle smile on his face and said, "But I also know that it's just because you are not good at words and are used to it. When faced with other people's kindness, you don't know how to express your response. You should understand deep down... …”

Emperor Xia felt inexplicably that his words made his face get hot and he felt a little unnatural.

"You are so annoying, stop talking..." She hurriedly stretched out her hand to silence Jiang Lan.

"Isn't that what you asked me?"

"I'm just asking, who asked you to talk so much? You are not good at words. I just don't like to talk too much..."

Seeing Jiang Lan's smiling eyes, Emperor Xia's face became hot, his eyes couldn't help but wander, and his aura softened inexplicably.

"I'm just saying this, actually, I just want to tell you that in front of me, you don't have to pretend to be strong like you do in front of others. If you have anything, you can tell me directly, and I will help you share your worries..."

"Or you can also act like other women and act coquettishly. It's actually nothing..."

Jiang Lan looked at her like this and sighed in his heart. Jiang Rushian really did bad things for him.

"I am the king of a country, how can I act coquettishly?"

"I am different from ordinary women, Jiang Lan, don't underestimate me..." Emperor Xia was dissatisfied and stretched out his hand to pinch him, but Jiang Lan held him down.

She stretched out her other hand, but was held down by Jiang Lan again, and her hands were instantly pressed behind her.

Emperor Xia suddenly became unhappy.

The two immediately started to struggle, and the Jinmu bed shook for a while. Finally, with a creak, it finally collapsed under the weight. The curtain was like a cloud, covering the two of them in an instant.

"Jiang Lan..."

"You've hit my hair, get up quickly..." Emperor Xia was so angry that his hands clenched tightly.

"Really?" Jiang Lan didn't believe it.

Emperor Xia immediately hammered him.

After a while, Emperor Xia, whose bun was disheveled, finally asked Jiang Lan to stand up under his feigned fierce gaze.

She sat blankly on the collapsed Jinmu bed for a while, then thought of someone, gritted her teeth, and saw deep hatred and anger in her eyes.

"Jiang Ruxian..."

At this moment, Emperor Xia's desire to become stronger in practice was stronger than ever before.

Jiang Lan knew that Emperor Xia had thought of something humiliating, and he was very unhappy about it, but Jiang Rushian's cultivation strength was indeed not something he could touch now.

When he first appeared in the imperial capital, Jiang Rushian was probably close to the realm of a saint, and maybe even more.

With the rebirth of the prophet, Jiang Rushian's cultivation speed in this life will be even more terrifying.

"It's all your fault..." Emperor Xia had nothing to do with Jiang Rushian and could only vent his anger on Jiang Lan.

Jiang Lan did not forget about the business, and let Emperor Xia vent his anger for a while before taking out the ray of Emperor's Qi that he had prepared earlier.

A wisp of aura as pure and thick as the blazing sun emerged in his palm, lying quietly across it, exuding a vast and masculine aura.

The Qi of the Emperor is a kind of aura, a kind of great atmosphere, which was condensed and gathered after the emperor in ancient times offered sacrifices to heaven, the people's aspirations, the world's aspiration, and the approval of heaven.

It not only contains the extremely mysterious meaning of the emperor, but also a kind of representative and symbol. To win the emperor's aura means that he is recognized by God and has the support of the people. He is the most orthodox emperor from ancient times to the present.

As soon as Emperor Xia saw this thing, he couldn't take his eyes away instantly.

She even felt that the dragon energy in her body was flowing towards this breath uncontrollably.

"What's this?"

She had some guesses in her mind, but she still couldn't help but ask.

"The Qi of the Emperor was encountered in the Confucian ruins this time." Jiang Lan explained casually.

"It is indeed the spirit of the emperor..." Emperor Xia's beautiful eyes suddenly brightened and became very bright.

The importance of this object to her was even greater than the previously lost national weapon Zhenlong Seal.

The national weapon Zhenlong Seal is just the condensed destiny of Daxia, while the Qi of the Emperor is a symbol of the ancient emperor, representing the recognition of the will of heaven and earth.

But just when Emperor Xia wanted to observe further, Jiang Lan closed his palms in an instant.

"You..." Emperor Xia suddenly felt angry and his teeth started to itch.

Of course, when Jiang Lan took out this thing, he must have prepared it for her. When he was removing the Emperor's Qi from the strange stone that day, he was thinking that it would be useful in the future.

Seeing Jiang Lan holding his hand, Emperor Xia was so angry that he wanted to pinch him.

In the end, after her hard work and a few promises to humiliate the country, Jiang Lan reluctantly gave her the spirit of the emperor.

After receiving the emperor's aura, Emperor Xia immediately wanted to go into seclusion.

Jiang Lan was naturally happy and relaxed.

Now that Daxia has become the official voice of the Prime Minister's Mansion, after Emperor Xia goes into seclusion, everything will not be decided by the Prime Minister's Mansion.

On the day Emperor Xia went into seclusion, the Imperial Master's Office was accused of colluding with relatives of the state and intending to rebel, and his family property was confiscated.

The people from Supervisor Tiansi immediately went to seize the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion.

This matter caused huge disturbances in the imperial capital, and all the noble families were in panic.

The whereabouts of the Imperial Master are now unknown, and the authenticity of this crime is also unknown.

But on the day Emperor Xia announced his seclusion, the Prime Minister escorted all the Imperial Masters to prison for such a crime.

Such thunderous means, in the eyes of many people, is the first step for the prime minister to eliminate dissidents, and everyone is trembling with fear.

Next, all the forces in the imperial capital will probably suffer a bloodbath and usher in a major reshuffle.

In the following days, the imperial capital was in a state of turmoil. Following the imperial master's palace, several relatives of the emperor were implicated. In the palace, secret letters of liaison with other Taoist holy places in other major states were found.

The Prime Minister was in power and had overwhelming power. In the past, the Prime Minister did not care about people whom Emperor Xia did not dare to touch easily. In just a few days, he killed several important ministers.

Of course, many people can also see that the Prime Minister did not really mean to exclude dissidents.

Because several of these ministers were indeed very close to the orthodoxy of other major states during this period.

Obviously, Xiang Guo did have some evidence in his hands.

In addition, even Zhenbei Prince's Mansion was also searched. Xiao Teng, the adopted son of Zhenbei Prince Xiao He, was implicated in the fact that the Blood Immortal Sect and the barbarians teamed up to sabotage Daxia's southern hunting exercise some time ago.

Many people thought that the matter had been over, but who knew that the Prime Minister's Office had actually collected other evidence.

There is another hidden story behind this matter.

Soon, Supervisor Tiansi found some evidence that Xie Jianjia, the daughter of the former Yushi Xie family, had already colluded with the Blood Immortal Sect.

In order to please her for his own selfish desires, Xiao Teng revealed to her the layout of the palace during the Great Xia Southern Hunting Exercise, causing a certain vital item in the palace to be stolen.

Xiao He, the king of Zhenbei, deliberately concealed this matter, but he wanted to be exempted from death penalty, demoted from his official position, and sent to Beihai because of his many great contributions to Daxia.

This incident once again caused huge waves in the imperial capital.

All civil and military officials were in a state of trembling fear.

Under the drastic reforms of the Prime Minister, the originally somewhat smoky imperial capital was transformed into a clear sea and river in less than half a month.

Some forces in the dark could not help but restrain their minions, and were not as unscrupulous as before.

It was also during this time that many monks in Kyushu noticed the magical scene.

In some peculiar areas, the rich divine light came from unknown sources and continued to fall from the depths of the sky, reflecting the entire sky into transparent colors like glass, gorgeous and bright.

The monks and geniuses who were looking for ruins and opportunities everywhere noticed these amazing changes, and felt that the whole world seemed to be gestating a new kind of power.

And the trembling sound of the earth beneath our feet became more and more obvious during this period.

In the Tianyan Sect, which is good at divination and deduction, there was also a sound that shocked many people.

The breath of the heavens penetrates and impregnates the earth under the feet of the active communication. Perhaps a great era that will bring blessings to the people of this world will soon come.

…

On an unnamed mountain peak, Ge Qixing stood facing the wind, quietly looking up at the sky.

Behind him, Lou Long looked into the depths of the sky with shock in his eyes, only to see a black spot the size of a mote of dust there, falling rapidly towards the bottom.

As the distance got closer and closer, the black spot became larger and larger, and finally its outline was revealed at the back.

It was a majestic and ancient palace.

"The emperor can no longer return to the capital. Judging from the current situation, Emperor Xia has been sidelined by the Prime Minister's Mansion..."

"Fortunately, when I was wandering outside the territory, I got a star palace. I originally planned to use it as a dojo to open up in the void after achieving the holy status."

"However, we can only avoid it for now and wait for opportunities."

Ge Qixing's eyes were deep, his Taoist robes were billowing, and there was a sky full of stars above his head. The majestic and magnificent bronze palace penetrated the void and fell so gently.

"Don't you, Qixing, plan to avenge Teng'er?"

"The murderer of Teng'er has not been found yet. I am not willing to accept it." Lou Long said, his emotions fluctuating violently.

Ge Qixing said calmly, "I will avenge Teng'er, but not now."

Lou Long clenched his fists, very unwilling to do so.

At this time, Ge Qixing suddenly felt something and looked not far away, and then there was a terrifying light surging in his eyes.

"What's wrong?" Lou Long followed his gaze, but couldn't see anything.

Ge Qixing's eyes were blazing, and he said in a deep voice, "The breath of the heavens has been imbued with it. In three months at most, the land of Kyushu will undergo drastic changes unprecedented in ancient and modern times."

"At that time, the will of the land of Kyushu under our feet will also be revived. You and I must seize this opportunity. When the will of the land of Kyushu is revived for the first time, everyone will receive indescribable benefits."

Even his mood, when he said this, was full of unbearable surprise and excitement.
