Chapter 192: Meeting One by One

Empty conference room, Zhi Sha Palace Master took off her silver mask, facing Zhang Yuanqing with her most authentic appearance.

Her features were eight or nine points similar to "Little Aunt", the remaining point being the difference in temperament and charm.

Little Aunt was cute and playful, with a touch of "older sister".

Zhi Sha Palace Master, on the other hand, was charming and mature, with a hint of playfulness.

At the same time, she had a faint maternal glow, gentle and kind.

This was the change brought about by the promotion in level.

She looked at him with a smile, "What are you apologizing for?"

Zhang Yuanqing didn't answer directly, but said to himself, "There are some things that I didn't confess to you at the beginning. At that time, I didn't think it was necessary, but now I want to say that after being polluted by the Fallen Holy Grail, my and Bing Ge's spirits gradually developed problems."

"The evil thoughts in human nature began to magnify, especially the existing personality flaws.

Bing Ge was暴躁 impulsive and 好斗bellicose. He became gloomy and cruel, ready to fight at the slightest disagreement. Every time he fought, someone died. He killed many ordinary people because of this, and put himself in danger countless times."

"My personality is偏激 extreme. It's the most terrible personality flaw. It always makes me get into a dead end in everything, becoming more 暴躁 than Fire Master and more 残暴than the Enchantress."

"Once, when I completed the task of the Tricky Eye Judge and asked for a reward, I chose the help of a Dream Weaver. I hoped that he could help me solve the defects in my personality. That Dream Weaver told me that the Fallen Holy Grail pollution is irreversible, and it will inevitably make the target crazy."

"But he can regularly appease my 编激 emotions and stimulate some personality defects. In this way, the Holy Grail's magnification effect will be transferred to that defect."

Zhi Sha Palace Master still smiled, "So you chose lust."

Zhang Yuanqing nodded slightly.

"We have to admit that among the many evils of greed, anger, delusion, hatred, and lust, lust is the least harmful. It neither hurts people's lives nor robs them of their wealth. And there are many men and women in society who are dissatisfied with their desires. As long as there is a specific goal and the right group is found, I can minimize the harm of the Fallen Holy Grail."

"I have slept with many women, some by force, some by coercion, some by enticement, some by.... Those women are still living well today. Their status has not changed, their wealth has not been lost, and they have even received huge benefits from me. If they encounter other Fallen, the consequences would be countless times more miserable."

"I'm not trying to excuse myself for what I did back then. I did try my best. In fact, even Yin Ji, I don't think I owe her anything.

Only you, Yu'er, only you are the one I can't face with a clear conscience."

Jiang Yu'er still smiled.

But there was a hint of sadness in her eyes: "After saying so much, after your resurrection, you still ended up with Guan Ya."

Zhang Yuanqing stared at her, silent.

This woman had exhausted herself for his resurrection, lowered her level to repair his soul, silently guarded him during the Demon Lord period, and selflessly helped him during the Yuan Shi Tian Zun period, only to be rewarded with the Demon Lord's lechery and the Yuan Shi Tian Zun's deaf ear and the romance with Guan Ya.

After a long time, he said, "I have never faced our relationship squarely, or rather, I have never regarded you as a possible love interest. Sometimes I would notice your abnormality towards me, and sometimes I would think that you don't look like Little Aunt at all, but over the past few years, I have gotten used to it."

Jiang Yu'er said, "Well, I see. That's why I contacted you and teased you as the Zhi Sha Palace Master, cultivating feelings and flirting with you, so that you would gradually develop a good impression of me, even fantasies. With this transition and buffer, even if you still resist and reject when you find out my identity, you won't cut off the thread of love."

Zhang Yuanqing nodded slightly, a trace of tenderness flashing across his dignified face.

"You succeeded."

He got up and walked to Jiang Yu'er's side, hugging her tightly in his arms, and said in a low voice: "Thank you for accompanying me through my life."

Jiang Yu'er did not respond, her shoulders trembling.

Figures appeared one after another around the conference table, the Returned from the Dead Saints, Guan Ya, Tian Xia Gui Huo, Sun Miao Miao, Queen, Xie Ling Xi, Zhao Chenghuang, and Hong Ji Ge. Everyone tacitly looked towards the chief seat, seeing the Sun Lord sitting there with dignity.

The next second, everyone tacitly lowered their heads, like an instinctive reaction after looking directly at the sun.

They originally wanted to ask about the resurrection of the Demon Lord and the process of Yuan Shi Tian Zun becoming the Sun Lord, but now they felt that they might not be qualified to access such high-level information.

Zhang Yuanqing slowly said:

"With your levels, it's best not to look directly at me, otherwise your vision will be permanently damaged, and so will your spirit."

His voice was grand and layered, as if coming from outside the sky, from all directions.

Yuan Shi Tian Zun has become a real big shot... Zhao Chenghuang had this thought in his mind, followed by helplessness, bitterness, and joy.

After losing to Yuan Shi Tian Zun in the ring battle last year, he, who was arrogant, had been thinking about surpassing Yuan Shi Tian Zun to avenge his shame. As a result, the gap became wider and wider.

It was clear that his promotion speed was already very fast. In the past eight months, he had risen three levels in a row, becoming a peak Saint, but the person he wanted to surpass was already a demigod.

Today, Zhao Chenghuang had long lost the idea of comparing himself, so he was sincerely happy that his friend, who had gone through life and death with him, was standing on the highest peak in the world, experiencing unprecedented scenery.

Sun Miao Miao was a little sad. She felt that Yuan Shi Tian Zun had changed a lot, not as humorous and funny as before, as if he had matured overnight.

Xie Ling Xi and the Queen had similar feelings. They felt that the chief was... both the Yuan Shi Gege哥哥they were familiar with and not like him at all, but they were both equally charming.

Hong Ji Ge originally wanted to praise him a few times, monkey 赛雷sai lei, but the majestic image of the Sun Lord he had glimpsed earlier was still deeply imprinted in his mind, making him afraid to be noisy and presumptuous.

He felt that his Fire Master nature was suppressed. Zhang Yuanqing looked at his former partners and said, "With your family backgrounds, you should be clear about the current situation and my past life. I can tell you very clearly that the probability of defeating the Star Lord is less than 50%."

As soon as these words came out, Tian Xia Gui Huo sighed first. As someone who came from humble beginnings, his desire for power far exceeded that of the other Saints who had Returned from the Dead.

His boss, Yuan Shi Tian Zun, had been promoted to a demigod... He should have ascended to heaven with his dogs and chickens, but the world was on the edge of doomsday.

"Then what should we do?" Hong Ji Ge couldn't help but blurt out, his face anxious.

No one paid attention to him, including Zhang Yuanqing. He continued, saying: "Next, the real world may usher in turmoil. This is a guess made by a few of us, not a deduction. The Star Lord has interfered with the celestial phenomena, and all astrology deductions have failed."

Hearing this, Sun Miao Miao and Zhao Chenghuang suddenly understood.

No wonder they had been observing the stars and deducing anything and anyone recently, and the celestial phenomena presented were chaotic.

Zhang Yuanqing continued with a dignified expression: "I have put a few saint-level top-grade props and rule-type props in the gang warehouse. They are my previous collections. You can take one according to your respective interests and needs."

"In case the real world really experiences turmoil, you can protect yourselves with these props."

Zhao Chenghuang, Hong Ji Ge, and Tian Xia Gui Huo looked at each other and lowered their heads respectfully. "Yes."

This time, they were not receiving favors and accepting orders as companions and friends, but as subordinates.

Zhang Yuanqing smiled slightly: "Then let's do that. I wish you good luck, and I wish myself good luck too."

The Saints of Returned from the Dead felt unspeakable sadness and heaviness in their hearts. Yuan Shi Tian Zun's actions looked like he was arranging his funeral in advance, meeting his old friends, and giving his last words.

They lowered their heads and sincerely wished him, "Good luck."

Their figures gradually disappeared from the conference table, leaving only Guan Ya.

Zhang Yuanqing looked at his girlfriend, who had been silent and had a stiff face from beginning to end, and sighed, "I've disappointed you, Guan Ya Jie."

"I have mocked the Demon Lord and despised the Demon Lord more than once.

It was only later that I realized that I am the Demon Lord. I accept the identity of the Demon Lord frankly. I must also bear his karma and responsibility. Therefore, it is impossible for me to be monogamous in love."

Guan Ya was silent for a moment, and forced a smile: "You don't have to tell me these things. I am a direct descendant of the Lingjing family. It is the most normal thing for a demigod to open up a harem in the eyes of us children of these families."

"Demanding monogamy from a demigod is just wishful thinking and unrealistic. Fu Xue has also told me more than once that as your level gets higher and higher, the number of women around you will increase, so let me adapt sooner."

Zhang Yuanqing said softly: "But you have a yearning for love that is different from other family children, so that's why you ran away from home back then."

A tear suddenly streaked across Guan Ya's fair cheeks. She stared at Zhang Yuanqing, staring at her boyfriend, not the Sun Lord, and smiled miserably: "But if it's you, I'm willing to give in, willing to compromise."

After sending Guan Ya back to reality, Zhang Yuanqing sat silently in the chief seat until his uncle in a white suit came in.

"Do you need me to bring over the women you slept with during your Demon Lord period again for a group meeting!" The uncle said: "I can be by the side and sing you rap to cheer you up."

"Or I'll twist your head off and give it to them to cheer them up." Zhang Yuanqing said lightly.

He was too lazy to talk nonsense with the family scum and left the Lingjing dungeon.

Before the final battle, he still had to see a few people.

Remote suburb of Jingcheng, a primeval forest.

In a sunroom planted with exotic flowers and plants, Ling Jun lay on a rattan chair, bathing in the sunlight shining into the room, closing his eyes, and gently swaying with the rattan chair.

He had been self-isolating in the Miao family for three days, and his depressed mood had not improved at all. He planned not to go out to see anyone this year.

The identity of Yuan Shi Tian Zun as the resurrected Demon Lord was gradually spreading among the officials. Half of the forum posts were related discussion posts, and half were discussion posts about the Star Lord.

Official members were either discussing the resurrection of the Demon Lord or discussing the betrayal of the Star Lord. No one was discussing the upcoming doomsday.

Because they didn't know, and this was what the official leaders were happy to see.

Middle and lower levels were not qualified to know the truth. Even at the moment of doomsday, they were destined to die without knowing why.

Of course, the fact that Yuan Shi Tian Zun had become the Sun Lord, representing the orderly camp in a duel with the Star Lord, was still known to them.

But in their eyes, this was a routine high-level camp conflict.

Back to the main topic.

Now, everyone knew that Yuan Shi Tian Zun was the Demon Lord, and everyone was mocking him for becoming best friends with his "uncle-in-law".

Flower Master had been wise all his life, but he never expected to fall into the hands of Yuan Shi Tian Zun, this damned thief.

Ling Jun even felt that doomsday was a good thing. At the social level, he was already dead.

At this moment, while he was closing his eyes, he received a flower language.... The flowers around him told him that there was one more person in the room.

Ling Jun suddenly opened his eyes and saw a young man with his whole body painted in gold standing three meters away from him, looking at him calmly.

Yuan Shi Tian Zun!

Ling Jun's face twitched. He stubbornly looked directly at the face of the Sun Lord and stubbornly said a greeting full of maternal content: "What the hell are you doing here?"

Zhang Yuanqing smiled, "As the Sun Lord's dating mentor, you shouldn't have such an expression...."

Ling Jun gritted his teeth: "If I had known that you were the damned Demon Lord, even if Fu Qingyang had stopped me, I would have dismembered you into eight pieces."

"There's no need to be like this. With my current level, even if I include your little aunt and cousin in my harem... it's a matter of course. No matter how unbearable the Demon Lord is, he's at least more successful than your stallion father." Zhang Yuanqing tried his best to restore his tone and expression to the past.

But after becoming the Sun Lord, he became a dignified expressionless face, so these words sounded like naked teasing.

Ling Jun took a deep breath: "You came here just to mock me?"

"No, I'm here to tell you something, about your mother." Zhang Yuanqing said, "I can tell you very clearly that he was the one who killed your mother!"
