Rebirth of the Supreme Celestial - Chapter 742

Yan Tianhen couldn’t help laughing. “Don’t tell me that Imperial Uncle is actually worried about a baby that hasn’t even been born yet? Even if you worry, you should be worried about me, right?”

Yan Zizhang: “…”

You Ming kicked Yan Tianhen. “Why are you telling the truth?”

Yan Zhonghua glanced at Yan Tianhen, and Yan Tianhen immediately closed his mouth.

Yan Zizhang frowned, “You don’t know this. If I didn’t realize just how horrible that woman is, I would never have come to you for advice.”

Yan Tianhen said, “A woman can scare you like this? I’m really curious about what she has done to you.”

Yan Zizhang’s eyes sank. “It’s not what she did to me, but what she did to our father.”

“What do you mean?” Yan Zhonghua asked.

“Father Emperor had already handed over the Black and White Crow Guards to that woman when he was in closed-door seclusion. Now on the surface, the power of the whole Purple Emperor’s Heavenly Capital is in the hands of Father Emperor, but in fact, half of it is in the hands of that woman.”

Yan Zizhang continued in a deep voice, “Moreover, at the beginning, she and I were still allies. However, a few days ago, just before the emperor left secluded cultivation, she came to me to break up our alliance: she also said that she wanted to have her child sit in the supreme position of the Nine Lands–her wolf ambition was clearly exposed!”

Yan Zizhang’s words were quite credible.

If he wasn’t truly desperate or wasn’t so angered that he was about to vomit blood, he always liked to secretly form alliances and make small moves, but at the same time, he still insisted on maintaining his dignity and never admitted to any of his schemes. Thus, the normal King Zhang would never be so frank and confess that he had colluded with the imperial concubine.

Not to mention–

“Haven’t the Black and White Crow Guards always been in your hands?” Yan Zhonghua also frowned slightly.

Yan Zizhang’s face changed a few times and looked very ugly. “Because of the dispute between you and me, our father took the Black and White Crow Guards back into his hands and only gave it back to me in the last two years. However, I have found that the Black and White Crow Guards were no longer the team I was familiar with. Most of the people there have been replaced, and most of them don’t listen to my command anymore. Although it looks bright on the surface, in fact, only I know how miserable it is. Unexpectedly, after that woman Jing Shui took in the Black and White Crow Guards, those people, the shadow guards of our Yan family, only obey her now!”

It went without saying what this meant.

It was very likely that the imperial concubine had already started to put her own people in the Black and White Crow Guards when the emperor took back the military power from Yan Zizhang. If so, then she was very scheming and frightening.

Yan Zizhang paused, then added, “Although I have some ideas about that throne, I prefer for the Yan family to sit in that position than for it to fall into the hands of an outsider.”

You Ming sneered and said, “Who are you fooling? I think you want us to deal with that woman and reap the benefits by yourself.”

Yan Zizhang was so shamed by You Ming, but it was rare that his face didn’t darken.

Yan Zizhang said, “Now I can see that it’s great to be alive. Look at Yan Huaizhen. In his heyday, even I had to avoid his edge. The whole Ling family supported him. Later, didn’t he gradually fall down, all the same? Even if there was a chance for him to make a comeback, he still squatted in the barren northern border like a drowning dog. What’s the meaning of living like a frightened rabbit all day?”

He looked at Yan Zhonghua with deep meaning and said, “If that woman’s child gets the throne, the mother will have power when her son is young. It’s hard to say what our futures would hold when that happens. You’d better think about it carefully.”

Yan Zizhang left without stopping.

After he left, Yan Zhonghua looked at Yan Tianhen and asked, “What do you think?”

Yan Tianhen touched his chin. “The Yan family has always followed the order of succession. There has never been any special situation. Unless the people in front of them die, the people in the back cannot take the throne. According to Yan Zizhang, if the child of the imperial concubine wants to rightfully win the throne, that child would have to sweep away the people in front. Moreover, the order of succession is now hundreds of people long. Even if she has a child, that child still doesn’t have any nominal qualifications.”

Yan Zhonghua rubbed Yan Tianhen’s head. “You think of her too simply. There is the possibility of pushing forward a substitute successor. If someone is more suitable for the front position, everyone else will be pushed back one rank in the order of succession. It’s not like this never happened before.”

Yan Tianhen blinked and said, “But I always feel that the imperial concubine doesn’t have so much power. After all, the first in line is my Dage.”

Both pairs of eyes fell on Lin Xuanzhi.

Lin Xuanzhi: “Although I’m not interested in that position, if someone wants to snatch it from Ah Hen, I won’t stand idly by.”

You Ming: “How can the world be so chaotic now? It seems that every single trouble ran out overnight.”

Yan Zhonghua held You Ming’s hand and said faintly, “This is the case in troubled times. The more chaotic it is, the more chaotic the world gets. Any gods, demons, and ghosts will appear one after another.”

You Ming sighed with emotion, “Troubled times are coming.”

……

The imperial concubine Jing Shui’s bedroom was dotted with shark beads, paved with exotic flowers and plants, and countless silks, satins, magic treasures, and pills. One could see that she was very favored, and even King Ye’s Palace couldn’t compare with her residence.

Concubine Jing Shui stroked her stomach with one hand and leaned against the soft bed to eat the medicinal diet specially refined for her by the pharmacist. Around her were ten maid servants who served her. Suddenly, the bell hanging at the corner of the eaves rang twice.

Jing Shui lifted her eyes and said, “This one is sleepy. You can leave first.”

“Yes.” The maids stepped down in turn and closed the palace door.

A ball of purplish-black evil Qi gradually solidified into a human shape behind Jing Shui. A handsome and pale man with a large coat appeared in the bedroom.

Jing Shui’s eyes flashed an excited color. She knelt down and said, “Master”.

A gust of air lifted her up.

“You are pregnant, you don’t have to salute,” said the man.

Jing Shui smiled and said, “Thank you, Master.”

If Yan Huaizhen was still alive and could see this man, he would immediately recognize that this man was the same Tu Feng who had been lingering with him every night. If Lin Xuanzhi and his colleagues could see this, they would surely gain a new understanding of Tu Feng’s strength, to be able to travel thousands of miles in an instant.

Tu Feng glanced at Jing Shui’s slightly raised belly and asked, “When can this child be born?”

Jing Shui said, “It all depends on when Master wants him to be born. I’ve been pregnant with this baby for many years. I have another pill in my hand that can make him ripe. After taking it, he can be born.”

Tu Feng nodded with satisfaction and said, “Then wait a little more.”

Jing Shui frowned. “How much longer do we have to wait? It looks like that old bastard is very satisfied with Yan Tianhen. Moreover, Lin Xuanzhi is also a troublesome person. He is now in the Grandmaster Realm. If they join hands, then even if we control that old bastard in the future, it will still be difficult to deal with Yan Tianhen.”

Tu Feng was very dismissive. “Now that I’ve achieved great attainment in my cultivation, what is a mere Grandmaster in my eyes? And that Yan Tianhen, hehe, he thinks he can be a savior again just because he cultivated evil Qi? How can there be such a good thing in the world?”

Jing Shui asked, “Then, what does Master plan to do?”

“Yan Tianhen is too self-righteous. He cultivated evil Qi. Before long, the whole Nine Lands will know about this matter.”

“But aren’t there a lot of people publicly protecting Yan Tianhen, despite him being an evil Qi cultivator?” Jing Shui naturally heard about it. “The power behind Yan Tianhen is too strong. Not only King Ye, but also the Fuyao Sect, and the North Land’s Longyao family are all protecting him. Even the East Land’s Xuan clan also intends to protect him. If we want to deal with him, it will be hard.”

Tu Feng raised his lips. “You don’t have to worry about that. I have my own way to make Yan Tianhen fall into a dilemma and let all living beings in the Nine Lands see his hypocrisy.”

After that, Tu Feng glanced at Jing Shui and continued, “When the world becomes hostile to Yan Tianhen, then it will be time for your baby to be born. You don’t have to worry about the rest. You just have to stay in the Purple Emperor’s Heavenly Capital, take good control of the supreme emperor, and have him obey you.”

Jing Shui smiled. “Master can rest assured. Right now, that old bastard is dedicated to me, thanks to Master’s godly Gu — although it can’t make him lose his mind completely, it can still make him more obedient to me without being aware of it.”

“This is the so-called ‘raising troops for thousands of days in order to use them once’. Even though the emperor has high cultivation and cannot be controlled easily, if we fed him some Gu insects every day for ten years, he will naturally be deeply affected.”

Tu Feng showed a cruel smile. He looked out of the window at the bloody sun and said, “The only person worthy of being regarded as my opponent has been dead for many years. The rest can’t even enter my eyes.”

Jing Shui smiled and complimented, “Master is unparalleled in the world.”

Tu Feng said, “I can’t stay here for too long. Remember what I told you before — when something happens to Yan Tianhen, it will be time for you to give birth to a child and snatch the Nine Land’s throne.”

Jing Shui smiled slowly and was just about to speak. Suddenly, a clear gasp came behind the gauze curtain.

Tu Feng’s face changed and suddenly shot a hand at the gauze curtain. They only heard a girl’s exclamation, and she was dragged out from behind the gauze curtain by two extremely long snake evil spirits.

Princess Yuqing’s eyes were about to turn white. She was dragged over the ground for tens of meters. Her feet kept kicking on the smooth ground. She looked like she was about to stop breathing.

Jing Shui’s face changed greatly, and suddenly she knelt on the ground. She kept kowtowing to Tu Feng and said, “Master, this is my younger sister. She came here by mistake. Please let her go first”

Tu Feng’s face was expressionless. He narrowed his eyes. “Sister?”

Jing Shui nodded hurriedly and said, “She’s really my sister. I can assure you that she will never say half a word about today’s affairs, otherwise I will kill her myself before you do anything to her!”

Seeing that Princess Yuqing was about to stop moving, Tu Feng slowly put down his hand and let the evil Qi dissipate.

Yuqing regained her breath, took a big breath, and coughed violently on the ground, as if she was coughing out all her heart blood. Jing Shui’s heart, which had risen to her throat, calmed down.

Tu Feng said coldly, “I’ll let her go for the time being in consideration of your face. In the future, you should discipline the people around you.”

“Yes, yes, I will discipline my sister!” Jing Shui kneeled on the ground. She only heard the eaves bell ring for a while, and then looked up. Tu Feng had disappeared.

Jing Shui quickly got up and helped Yuqing, who was lying on the ground coughing all the time.

“Child, what are you running around for?” Jing Shui scolded, “Do you know that you almost died just now!”

Yuqing kept shedding tears and said in a panic, “Sister, who is that person just now? What you guys said– you, you–”

Jing Shui calmed down and stared at Princess Yuqing. “What did we say just now?”

Yuqing said, “You said, you said you’ll control the Emperor and hurt Yan Tianhen!”
