Luo Tian took the light spirit stone, but he didn't try to peek into its contents, he just waited for Yingyue to come. The latter came not long after together with Hei Yue, she was clearly in a bad mood because the moment she came, she released a bit of her aura so that the restaurant was destroyed instantly and the people inside were thrown in all directions.
She didn't look directly at Luo Tian, instead, she stared at where the woman had disappeared to. The remaining snowflakes were still there, they started to disappear as the sunlight hit them.
"Yingxue, do you want to play with me," Yingyue said in an emotionless tone.
Her eyes emitted a sharp light, various kinds of strange phenomena appeared around her.
Unfortunately no changes have occurred to the place where Yingxue disappeared.
"You're really good at hiding," she said again.
She then looked at Luo Tian and took a deep breath before calming down.
"Let's go back."
...
Inside the palace, he sat alone with Yingyue. The woman had already taken off her mask and was looking at him.
"Do you have any questions?" she asked.
"No," he answered.
"You're lying, you must be curious about whether the story is true or not, right?"
"I naturally want to know. However, even though I want to know, I won't ask if you don't want to say it."
"Do you think that's true or not?"
"I can't guess."
"Then what if it's true?"
"Erm." He was confused about what to answer.
"If that's true, will you be disgusted with me?" She asked again.
She was clearly in a sensitive mood, she seemed to really care about his opinion.
He knew an answer wasn't something she really wanted, what she wanted was trust, he sighed before grabbing her hand and pulling her into his embrace.
"Yingyue, no matter what, I will stay by your side," he said.
Her expression became calmer in his arms.
"She is indeed my twin sister, her name is Yingxue," she said.
"Not many know of her existence, some people think it's just a rumour."
"Are you still going to antagonize her?" he asked.
"She came to provoke me, how could I be silent."
She released herself from his embrace before continuing, "As the Moon said, the world only needs one supreme goddess."
She spoke in a cold tone, her expression showing that she tolerated no one to compete with her, not to mention being himself.
She then looked at the light spirit stone in her hand that she had taken from him.
She infused her spiritual energy into the stone, immediately after, the stone emitted light that formed a screen.
An image appeared on that screen. It was a picture of two thirteen year old girls, they were standing on a road in the village.
Both of them wore the same dress, had exactly the same face. And their faces were so beautiful that they were prettier than the dolls carved by the highest artist.
Miya and Jasmine could be said to be extremely beautiful girls with their thirteen year old appearance.
However, compared to the two girls, they were like country girls who had not yet experienced glows up.
"One of them is you?" Luo Tian asked as he glanced at Yingyue.
The two girls actually had black hair and purple eyes, Luo Tian was a bit confused as to why Yingxue's color and eyes had changed. Hair color may be changeable, but eye color changes are usually related to strength.
Yingyue blushed slightly after she heard his words. She looked at him, then reached out her hand to push his head away.
"Don't look," she said.
She gripped the stone so that it stopped emitting light.
Luo Tian guessed that there were more photos of them in the rock, he wondered what purpose Yingxue sent their photos to Yingyue.
Did she want her to remember their memories. Or there are other intentions, such as stating something.
Yingyue then sent her spiritual sense into the stone, that way, she saw all the images without having to display them.
"Hmph." She suddenly snorted coldly.
Her grip on the stone became so strong that it crumbled to dust.
"Actually I'm afraid she's trying to seduce you," she said.
"Taking you away from this realm was definitely the right choice."
He smiled wryly before replying, "Yingyue, don't you trust my loyalty?"
"It's not a trust issue, but men need to be guarded against cheating. You know, 999 of 1000 men I know have more than one woman."
"How can they compare to me. As Luo Jian's son, I believe his loyal gene runs in my blood."
"Hmph, do you think that's enough to convince me."
"Miya,," she suddenly called Miya.
The latter quickly appeared.
She still looked calm, but Luo Tian felt she was a bit nervous.
As soon as she arrived in front of Yingyue, she lowered her head.
"Master, I am ready to accept punishment for the misinformation I gave," she said.
When Yingyue's subordinates gave her information, they had to make sure it was the correct information. They also had to look for gaps in that information.
Miya gave Yingyue the information without noticing the gaps in it. She couldn't find any sign that it was a trap so she dared to tell Yingyue the information.
Even though it was later discovered because of Jasmine, still she still made mistakes.
Others could forgive such an unintentional mistake, but that was not the case for Yingyue. Every mistake would still be a mistake in the rules she made.
It was a bit unreasonable, but it was her way of keeping no intruders in her faction. Every intruder in her faction couldn't play around because of that rule.
She looked at Miya before saying, "well, your mistake is quite understandable since you are still an immortal emperor while this is paragon level information, I can reduce the punishment for you a bit. I'm planning on going pretty far, maybe 50 years or 100 years. While I'm away, I want you to subdue ten thousand peak immortal emperors, force them to submit to you until they don't mind sacrificing their lives. I don't care what means you use, but you can't ask a saint for help, you must also restrain your cultivation from breaking through within this time."
Luo Tian, "..."
While he was dumbfounded by Yingyue's request to Miya, the latter nodded without the slightest hesitation on her face.
"Thank you, master. I certainly will not disappoint you," she said.
"You are my best disciple so far, as long as you succeed, I will definitely reward you. Alright, you may go."
"Thank you."
She thanked her once more before stepping back.
After she left, Luo Tian said to Yingyue, "aren't you going too far with her?"
Ten thousand peak immortal emperors was definitely not a small amount. Luo Tian doubted that their number reached ten thousand in the Qin empire.
Even if Miya had a hundred years, it would still be too short a time to conquer them all.
First, she definitely couldn't do that to the immortal emperors in big places, their backgrounds were definitely not weak.
All she could do was subdue the immortal emperor who was the ancestor of her clan. In order to subdue them, she might be able to use their family as a threat. But finding immortal emperors who didn't mind dying for their family was definitely not easy. In the cultivation world, there are more selfish people.
Miya had to go to various places to look for them and then subdue them.
With the power of the saint, it might be easy to do, but the reason Yingyue forbade her to use the power of the saint was obviously because it would keep the other factions from standing still.
The cultivators of righteousness would not allow such an unfair fight.
"You're wrong," Yingyue replied.
"My goal is not to punish her but to train her to become sharper."
Luo Tian was silent for a moment before showing an expression of understanding.
"I see, I understand," he said before she continued.
"Hmph, you understand too late, isn't that because you still think I'm a petty woman." She showed a displeased expression.
"I may be a cruel and mean woman, but I'm not petty. Everything I do has a reason."
"Well, I can only apologise, I'm still inexperienced," he replied with an apologetic expression.
He understands.
When Miya thought it was a punishment given by Yingyue to her for her mistakes, as a loyal disciple who admitted her mistakes, she would work harder in doing her duty.
"By far Miya is my best disciple, both in terms of talent and intelligence, she is the best. She is also the most loyal to me out of all my subordinates. I really hope she can reach the peak in the future."
"You did very well." Luo Tian nodded. It was indeed a very clever method.
"Miya is very smart, sooner or later she will realize what I mean."
"What if she doesn't realize what you mean and then starts getting annoyed with the way you treat her so that her feelings for you lessen?"
"Well, I don't need stupid disciples, it's not that I don't have stupid disciples, sooner or later I will send them to their deaths."
