Chapter 132: Correcting The Empress Misconceptions!
Watching Wutong leave the hall, the Empress put down the document in her hand.
After receiving the answers from her trusted aide, she felt even more confused.
Mainly, when Wutong was discussing several possibilities that could make someone act contradictory, she inexplicably emphasized one of them.
Emotions are often the most common reason for people to act inconsistently.
Normally, as the Immortal Nation Empress, she would scoff at this and begin to suspect whether her trusted aide was once again concerned about her marital matters.
But in the current situation, she couldn't help but replay in her mind the scene of a certain Demon Sect Holy Saint confessing in her dreams.
The bracelet made of a beautiful jade known as "Star-Moon Jade" also occasionally flashed in her mind.
If that Demon Sect Holy Saint were to confess to her in reality, would he also create a bracelet of the same design with that unique jade and give it to her?
Such thoughts inexplicably crossed her mind.
People under the influence of the illusion of love may expose their true thoughts hidden deep within, even in their dreams.
In other words, although the young man later claimed that everything in the dream was due to excessive psychological suggestions by his master, deep down, he must have had such thoughts.
Otherwise, why would he bring up the matter of marriage again after waking up?
So, did he really consider marrying the so-called "Empress's sister"?
The Empress fell into contemplation.
According to what Wutong had just said, emotions are the most likely trigger for a person's contradictory actions
Thinking like this, it seemed that after the night when the Magical Artifact Pavilion was opened, the other party changed his mind.
(He began to suspect me back then?)
A sudden thought flashed in her mind, causing her phoenix-like eyes to widen slightly.
She finally realized something.
When the Human Emperor Sword Sheath was lent to her trusted subordinates for the demon extermination operation, this may not have meant much to others, but in the eyes of the Demon Sect Holy Saint who had been looking for the so-called "Empress's younger sister" from the beginning, wasn't it an "anomaly"?
Sometimes, intuition is often the beginning of discovering the truth.
What came next perhaps that Demon Sect Holy Saint really thought that after communicating with the mortal incarnation of the Immortal Nation Empress, marrying the Golden-Ranked member of the Six Gate Bureau, who was supposedly the Empress's sister, was a feasible option, and that's why he decided to prepare to help the immortal nation? To help his "sister in law"?
The Empress was startled by her absurd thoughts.
Although this theory had many loopholes, just thinking about it made her heart race.
After all, she was the ruler of the immortal nation, the youngest Nascent Soul cultivator of this generation known so far. She appeared experienced and capable of doing what ordinary people could not, but ultimately, she was still just a young girl.
The so-called cunning and scheming were forced upon her by this throne.
If it was true, as she had just thought, that Luo Wusheng did everything for the sake of love, what should she do?
Deep down, she knew very well that she never had a younger sister!
Due to the technique that she used, the one that allows her to separate her body into three forms, if the Demon Sect Holy saint were pursuing one of her forms, its no different than pursuing all three of her forms!
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but curse the Demon Sect Lord who fabricated her nonexistent sister and even arranged for his disciple to marry her.
How could there be such a teacher?
He was truly unworthy of such a title!
The more she scolded in her heart, the more confused her heart became, and the scenes of the brightly lit courtyard and her own phoenix-like appearance in the dream kept replaying in her mind.
In the world, there is a saying.
[Misfortunes never come alone]
At this moment, memories from her mortal form synchronized with her.
In the synchronized memories, a certain member of the Six Gate Bureau, Night Crow, who wore a feathered mask, showed some pages to her mortal self with a somewhat playful tone.
On those pages were speculations about the relationship between the Demon Sect Holy Saint and herself, the Empress of the immortal nation.
As for the more specific content of his speculation
"Ridiculous! How could I have that kind of private meeting with him!"
She, as the Empress, hadn't even had a formal face-to-face conversation with that Head of the demon artifact pavilion!
She angrily slammed the document in her hand onto the table.
The exquisite young girl's face blushed slightly, and her chest heaved with each breath.
Naturally, she couldn't quarrel with her own people, but this kind of paper, though absurd in its content, was often spread among the people. After all, she and that Demon Sect Holy Saint had been too conspicuous in the northern part of the city last night, and it was understandable that the people would fantasize.
Some of the content on the pages even made reasonable speculations based on the common people's perspectives, and even a few reasons why the Demon Sect Holy Saint helped her, replacing her with her supposed sister, were not much different from the answers she had come up with earlier because of Wutong's words.
But
"Night Crow just you wait."
"I may be unable to deal with the common masses, but as your superior, you think I cant deal with you?
The moment Wutong emerged from the depths of the Imperial Palace, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Facing the questions of her Empress, she eventually gave an answer that satisfied herself.
"I wonder if I can make Her Majesty slightly change her perspective on matters of the heart" Wutong muttered to herself.
Honestly, she originally thought that while Her Majesty could find a suitable partner, she hadn't reached the point of those ministers in the court.
After all, she also thought highly of her Empress, and finding a man with enough qualifications in the mortal world was indeed challenging.
But after seeing a certain Demon Sect Holy Saint and witnessing what he had done these days, she understood.
Was there anyone more suitable for her Empress than this Demon Sect Holy Saint?!
As for the rumors that she got regarding himself? All nonsense! Not one of them is true!
In the rumours that she heard, its said that the Demon Sect Holy Saint is an emotionless person who only cared about cultivation and jade, the rumours and the real one were completely different people!
Tha man has an unparalleled talent, extraordinary temperament, deep thoughts, and far-reaching plans.
Even her Empress, at that age, would not be a match for that Demon Sect Holy Saint!
Moreover, although the Head of the demon artifact pavilion was calculating, he showed no arrogance or superiority to those around him, and his thoughts were delicate.
Like on the day of the pavilion opening ceremony, he faced the demonic being with the means to display his Nascent Soul's might, but he remained calm, not rushing to take action. Instead, he moved his younger sister and another woman to a safe place, preventing the battle from affecting them.
Combined with her careful observations and the information provided by Night Crow, with whom she had early contact
Wutong's mind inexplicably came up with this thought: Besides him, was there any man in this generation of geniuses who was qualified to stand by her Empress's side?
Unfortunately, Her Majesty seemed to be particularly concerned about age
But it didn't matter. Her Majesty's misconceptions would be corrected by those who served her!
Wutong's steps slowed slightly as she looked at a figure coming towards her.
"Are you also going to see Her Majesty? Have you found any clues about the suspicious people during these days?"
Looking at the newcomer, Wutong asked in a low voice.
The figure was Night Crow, wearing a feathered mask.
"Yes, I have organized a batch of suspicious individuals and am about to present them to Her Majesty."
Night Crow, in a hurry, did not stop his steps.
He had an extremely uneasy feeling as he approached the depths of the Imperial Palace. (If he didn't inform Her Majesty of this information as soon as possible, there might be some unexpected changes)
Thinking like this, after exchanging a glance with Wutong, the two of them passed by each other.
Everything that needed to be said was understood without any exchange in words.
