Before launching a rebellion against the Black Emperor, eliminating internal traitors was their primary task.
As Chairman Chang said, "To resist external aggression, we must first pacify the internal situation," and this is exactly the case.
After her sister comforted her, Shao Nanqin felt better.
Then she calmed down and let Mai lead her out of the room. Outside was a winding corridor, beyond which was a meticulously maintained courtyard with artificial hills, flowing water, lush vegetation, and a tranquility that seemed otherworldly.
Looking at the landscape and gardens before her, Shao Nanqin was deeply shocked. She, who came from a poor family and was born in an orphanage, had never seen such a scene before.
She secretly asked her sister where they were. Shao Nanyin shrugged and casually said that this was the master's villa in Chengdu, which was given to the master by a big shot among mixed-race people named Qin Wuyi.
Mai walked ahead, her back straight and her steps steady, as if she didn't care about the whispers between the two sisters.
They passed through several moon gates, walked along a cobblestone path, and finally arrived at a secluded quiet room deep in the courtyard.
The door to the quiet room was open, and the room was softly lit with a faint aroma of tea.
Mai stopped in front of the door and bowed slightly: "Master, they have arrived."
Then, she gestured for Shao Nanqin and Nan Yin to go inside.
"Aren't you going in?" Shao Nanqin asked curiously.
Mai Shude gave a polite smile. Of course, she also wanted to go in and listen in, but she understood that some secrets, once known, are no longer secrets.
Just like her former boss, "Little Devil," whose authority was in the realm of dreams, he was able to extract the knowledge he desired from the dreams and memories of ordinary people.
Each person is like a book to him. If the next generation of dragons is not on guard, his memories will be spied on. If the third generation of dragons is protected, they can resist to some extent.
As for those hybrids below the third generation, including humans, whether they are "Emperor" or "S" class, as long as they are not as powerful as the first generation like "Amaterasu," "Tsukuyomi," "Susanoo," and "Izanagi" who are passed down in her hometown, and even have the authority to use the World-Destroying Word of Power: Return to the Void, no one can resist her former boss's spying.
As for Mai Shude, she has to admit that she is one of the people in the world with the deepest relationship with her former boss. Her former boss rarely takes action himself and relies entirely on the "nanny group" to operate.
Oh. Now that there's another Chu Tianjiao, we can call it the "Dads' Group".
Even so, she was the person most deeply controlled by the little devil. What she didn't know was that in the original "Dragon Raja" novel, she was the only person besides Lu Mingfei who had been "possessed" and had his bloodline "rewritten" by the little devil Lu Mingze.
What are all these fancy and flashy things like Tenyuu Habakiri and Futsu no Mitama?
Of course, at this point in time, Mai Shude has not yet encountered any enemies that require her bloodline to be rewritten to deal with, so she is unaware that in the order of the healer group, her attribute as a "tool" to a certain extent is even above "zero".
Seeing Jiu De Mai's smile, Shao Nanqin remained silent. She took a deep breath, clenched her slightly trembling hand, and stepped over the threshold. Nan Yin followed closely behind her.
The interior of the quiet room was more spacious than I had imagined, with minimal furnishings: a low tea table, a few cushions, and a display shelf against the wall with several pieces of porcelain of indeterminate age.
A man stood with his back to them by the window, gazing at a clump of green bamboo outside.
Opposite him was a girl who was unbelievably beautiful.
The two are playing chess.
Chapter 193 I once wielded the whip of Cao Cao?
As Shao Nanqin watched the two playing chess, her younger sister Shao Nanyin stepped forward and sweetly called out "master".
Wang Anzhi paused his fingers on the chessboard, and then saw the Little Dragon Girl on the other side casually mixing black and white pieces, just like the Great Han Chess Saint. Finally, she turned her hand and said that this time it was a draw!
Xia Mi then walked between the Shao sisters, Shao Nanyin and Shao Nanqin, and looked at them with curiosity, especially Shao Nanyin, who had rarely seen her own kind since she woke up from her slumber three hundred years ago.
"You are very good."
Xia Mi patted Shao Nanyin on the shoulder, immediately making the dragon maid feel tense, and she quickly pledged her loyalty:
“Your Highness Jormungandr, I will always be loyal to you. If you ask me to be your bed warmer, I will never be your concubine.”
Upon hearing this, not only was Xia Mi stunned, but even her older sister, Shao Nanqin, felt ashamed. She tugged at her sister's sleeve and whispered:
"Nanyin..."
Shao Nanyin was not ashamed at all. She continued to spout her fallacious arguments, such as how Prince Jormungandr was both literate and martial, and that their family could be her maternal relatives.
Upon hearing this, Xia Mi verbally rebuked her for being full of feudal ideas and lacking any of the modern values of equality for all, but in reality, she was extremely happy.
For many years, no dragons had come to her of their own accord. As a result, other dragon kings always had a dragon servant by their side, and Odin was even able to convene an entire "Dark Lords Council," while she only had a Kamaitachi Queen in her lair.
How pitiful! How pitiful!
Wang Anzhi covered his head. These two were indeed extraordinary individuals among the dragons. They were truly evenly matched and had almost led him astray in no time.
So he interrupted the mutual admiration between the two and said to the dragon maid:
"Alright, Shao Nanyin, you know I didn't come here to discuss these things."
"I will forever follow Your Majesty's glory," Shao Nanyin said, her expression immediately becoming serious. She even assumed a military posture, and the pure white maid outfit she wore gave the impression of her wearing a military uniform, just like a female knight.
"We are one and of one mind."
Wang Anzhi covered his eyes again, finding it somewhat unbearable to look at, but he didn't say much and went straight to the point:
"Shao Nanyin, when have you ever met Constantine, the King of Bronze and Fire?"
Shao Nanyin fell silent immediately.
"You've also met Constantine?" Xia Mi looked at Shao Nanyin and immediately felt a sense of betrayal.
Looking at her silent younger sister, the older sister Shao Nanqin quickly said, "This must be a misunderstanding." She turned to her sister with a pleading expression, "Right, Nanyin?"
After her sister and Mai Shude explained things to her, Shao Nanqin gained a rough understanding of the Dragon Clan, and that the Four Sovereigns were the current leaders.
My sister has connections with the King of Bronze and Fire. This doesn't make her a "traitor to humans." No, my sister is a dragon, but she has sided with a hybrid. So now she should be considered a "traitor to dragons."
After careful consideration, Shao Nanqin suddenly realized that her younger sister might still be a spy sent by the Dragon Clan. After several visits, it was a spy within a spy. This sister was a "three-surname slave" and a "living Lu Bu"!
As she thought about it, Shao Nanqin's gaze towards her younger sister became somewhat strange.
It's as if all [Junyan] have a gossipy heart.
"Alright, sister, stop overthinking," Shao Nanyin looked at her sister and smiled helplessly. The two sisters were of one mind, and they could understand each other's thoughts with just a glance. She turned her head away, "Unfortunately, it is indeed true."
Then, she looked at Wang Anzhi, her tone sincere:
“Master, I did not mean to deceive you. I just wanted to find a suitable opportunity to tell you all this. You should understand that if I had really sided with Prince Constantine, I wouldn’t have gone so far as to steal an elixir of immortality. Prince Constantine would not allow me to do that.”
"Oh, so when did you meet Constantine?" Wang Anzhi watched Shao Nanyin's performance with great interest.
To be honest, he wasn't in a hurry to find Constantine. After his trip to the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wang Anzhi vaguely realized that he, as Liu Xiu in his previous life, had signed a contract with Constantine and the Norton brothers.
The contents of the contract are unknown, but it is clear without much thought that it concerns the seizure of the power and authority of the King of Bronze and Fire.
The fact that the two Fire King brothers fell asleep for two thousand years is completely illogical. In the original work, it could be explained as a loophole in the Blue-Faced Beast's design, but now it can only be seen as a flaw that he deliberately left behind.
After two thousand years of trials and tribulations, he believed that he hadn't done nothing in the past, nor had he failed to do anything to the two Fire King brothers who had signed the contract.
This feeling intensified as Constantine traveled upstream along the Yangtze River to Sichuan, as if by destiny.
When the "elixir of immortality" was stolen, and the Bai family and Qin Wuyi were both humiliated, but Constantine remained silent, Wang Anzhi felt more and more strongly the "ideological imprint" he had placed on Constantine.
From the Bai family who have lived here for two thousand years, to Shao Nanyin who seems to have met by chance, and Norton who went to America just like in the original story.
These are no coincidences.
On the other side, Shao Nanyin took a deep breath and began to tell her story.
"His Highness Constantine found me a week ago."
Xia Mi thought for a moment and said, "Didn't Constantine discover you as soon as he arrived in Sichuan?"
"Yes, I am of the bloodline of bronze and fire, and I once followed His Highness Constantine, who once buried the mark of bronze and fire in my blood."
If we're far apart, that's fine, but if we're in the same city, His Highness Constantine can use the call of blood to discover my identity and location.
Shao Nanyin lowered her eyes. "This is a power that belongs exclusively to the monarch, and I cannot refuse it."
Xia Mi opened her mouth, but had nothing to say. Her bloodline members had all been killed by her before even the Black Emperor Nidhogg abdicated.
During the period of warring kingdoms, she had almost no experience of summoning blood descendants.
Looking at the group, Wang Anzhi felt somewhat embarrassed. Shao Nanyin, the dragon maid, had the mark of Constantine, while his head maid, Jiu Demai, had the mark of the little devil.
Now they are all under his command. Could it be that in another life he became Prime Minister Cao, leading a wave of Jian'an spirit and wielding the whip of Wei Wu?
After a moment of speechless silence, he looked at Shao Nanyin and said weakly:
"Go on! Tell me about your experience with Constantine."
Chapter 194 The Bonds Between the Four Monarchs
"I met His Highness Constantine on my way home at night."
When I met him, the streets had become completely empty in an instant, and the tall buildings had transformed into a scene of small bridges, flowing water, and houses.
It was then that I realized I had entered the Nibelungen?
"Is there a Nibelungen here?" Xia Mi looked around curiously, completely unaware that there was a Nibelungen in Chengdu.
Hela, the ultimate form of the Queen of the Earth and Mountains, is the Goddess of Death. She possesses the authority to open all Nibelungen lands and rule over all the lands of the dead.
That is why Xia Mi never cared that he had no one to rely on.
When the gates of the dead open, all the spirits of the past, the mythical beasts of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and the saints of the Bible will open their eyes once more and launch a revenge against the world of the living.
This was an authority that had never appeared in this world before, and even Xia Mi herself could only vaguely sense it.
As she originally said, when Hela, the goddess of death, appears, neither Jormungandr nor Fenrir will exist.
He is neither Jormungandr nor Fenrir; He is wiser than Jormungandr and more powerful than Fenrir. The boundary between life and death is blurred, and all people are trapped in a state of neither life nor death, becoming servants of Jormungandr.
This should have been something Jormungandr longed for, but when Wang Anzhi asked her about it, the ever-smiling girl, who was like an elf, fell silent.
The silence was not out of reluctance to part with his brother Fenrir, but rather out of fear of the unknown.
Jormungandr should be Hela if he goes any further, so why is this girl afraid of such a future?
When he asked the girl why she was afraid of her future?
The dragon girl gently told him that he would never understand the stories among the dragons.
When the four monarchs were born in the darkness, they seemed to be able to sense the new power they gained after devouring their brothers.
Just as bronze and fire are to Surtur, sea and water to Njord, earth and mountains to Hela, and sky and wind to Thor.
None of their eight siblings had ever devoured their own brothers, nor had any elders of similar lineage in ancient times ever done so.
Ultimately, the idea of improving one's bloodline through blood-mixing and gaining power close to that of the Black Emperor is nothing but a beautiful dream, without any empirical evidence.
