Chapter 765: Follow the Emperor's lead

~7 min read 1,313 words

He didn't pay attention to Zhong Yu but turned his head and said to the tall, thin youth.

"Be ready to retreat at any time."

"Brother Yi, don't worry. Since our Chonghuo Bounty Hunter Group has taken your order, we won't let you be in danger." The tall, thin youth gave Xu Tian a thumbs up.

Although he had his guarantee, Xu Tian didn't quite believe it.

Yun Shuying's subordinates were as variable as she was, and they couldn't be controlled at all.

Although Xu Tian didn't want to greet the Emperor at all, people have curiosity, and he really wanted to know what the Emperor, who made all the dark forces on Wuji Island fearful, looked like.

It is said that the Emperor's appearance is ugly, so she never appeared in public.

Women, you know, don't like others to comment on their appearance, and Xu Tian could understand that.

Just as Xu Tian walked out from behind several bounty hunters and looked at the main seat in the center, Tang Bingyan, who was sitting in the main seat, also turned her head to look in the direction of Canglang Hall.

Their eyes met, and both were stunned.

A rare look of surprise appeared in Tang Bingyan's cold, waveless eyes, and Xu Tian also stared at Tang Bingyan, his brain stopping its operation.

A moment later, Tang Bingyan put away her surprise, as if nothing had happened, and her gaze returned to the heads of the various gangs in front.

"Brother Yi!" Zhong Yu pushed Xu Tian with some disgust. "That Thorn Emperor is indeed a beauty, but you don't have to be stunned by looking at her, right?"

Xu Tian stared at the woman in the black dress sitting in the main seat with a complex expression.

He wasn't stunned by looking at a beauty; this woman was Tang Bingyan, whom he was looking for!

"Brother Yi?" Zhong Yu saw that Xu Tian didn't respond, so she became even more certain of her guess. "Don't even think about it. That's the Thorn Emperor, who kills without blinking. How many lives do you have to dare to have ideas about her?"

After seeing Tang Bingyan's appearance, Zhong Yu also felt a bit sour in her heart.

Both are women, this Thorn Emperor is not only powerful, but also so beautiful. Does this leave any way for ordinary women to live?

Zhong Yu considered herself to be a beauty, and she was very confident when she dressed up to go out, but compared to the Thorn Emperor in front of her, she lost completely and was convinced.

"Don't make noise."

Zhong Yu's voice made Xu Tian come back to his senses. He looked at the woman in the black dress not far away with a complex expression, the shock in his eyes still not disappearing.

When did Tang Bingyan become the Thorn Emperor? Or did he recognize the wrong person, and this woman just looked a bit similar to Tang Bingyan?

But no matter how confused he was, it was impossible for him to recognize his own wife wrong, right?

Then, could it be that this woman was really Tang Bingyan?

That day Yun Shuying had told him that Tang Bingyan was very likely a member of the ancient Tang family, but how could a member of the Tang family become the Thorn Emperor?

Apart from her hairstyle and dress, this woman was almost 90 percent similar to Tang Bingyan.

And changing a hairstyle or something was too simple for a woman.

But if this woman was really Tang Bingyan, then why could she be so calm after seeing him, as if she didn't know him at all?

Although Xu Tian had thousands of questions in his heart, he wasn't stupid enough to run over and question her immediately.

The situation was critical, and he couldn't show any flaws.

"Brother Yi, the Thorn Emperor is indeed a beauty." The tall, thin youth sighed. "However, this Emperor has never been willing to show her face to the outside world. Today she actually made an exception. I don't know what the reason is..."

However, Xu Tian and the tall, thin youth didn't know that Tang Bingyan, sitting in the main seat, had been paying attention to their direction.

But she had been observing Xu Tian without leaving any traces, and controlled the direction of her eyes very well, without giving Xu Tian any chance to notice.

"Tang Po." Tang Bingyan suddenly spoke.

The short old woman beside her immediately responded.

"My Lord."

"Stop Lin Shanshan." Tang Bingyan said.

Tang Po was slightly startled, but still responded quickly.

"Yes."

Although she didn't understand why Tang Bingyan wanted her to do this, she still walked quickly toward the entrance.

At the same time, Lin Shanshan had already walked into the manor and was rushing toward the crowd.

But before she could get close, she met Tang Po halfway.

"Wait a minute!"

"Tang Po, why are you still here?" Lin Shanshan was very surprised. "Everyone is here, let's hurry up..."

"The Emperor said don't come over, and you don't need to attend today's meeting either." Tang Po said slowly.

"Ah? She said that?" Lin Shanshan was stunned. She had arrived, why not let her go over?

"Yes, the Emperor personally ordered it. You are not allowed to enter." Tang Po emphasized her tone.

Lin Shanshan:...

What is Bingyan doing?

However, at this time, even if she was full of questions, she wouldn't go against Tang Bingyan's wishes.

However, just when she was confused and planned to leave, her peripheral vision suddenly saw a familiar figure in the crowd.

"Holy crap! Am I seeing things?"

Lin Shanshan was dumbfounded.

How could that man look so much like Xu Tian?

She widened her eyes and looked over, only to find that it wasn't just like him, he was exactly the same as Xu Tian, it was Xu Tian himself!

Lin Shanshan only felt that the whole person was not good. Now Xu Tian should be in Jiangcheng, Huaxia. How could he come to Wuji Island and appear at the gang gathering held by Tang Bingyan?

"No wonder..." This time Lin Shanshan finally knew why Tang Bingyan excluded her and didn't let her attend the meeting. "I guess Bingyan didn't plan to confess to Xu Tian. If she appeared, she would definitely be recognized by Xu Tian."

Although Lin Shanshan didn't have much contact with Xu Tian in Jiangcheng, she had eaten with him after all.

Unless that kid got Alzheimer's in such a short time, it was impossible not to recognize her.

Worried about destroying Tang Bingyan's plan, Lin Shanshan immediately took a few steps back, dodged into the flower garden next to her, and quietly observed the movements of Xu Tian's side through the cover of the tree crown.

Main venue.

Tang Bingyan's cold gaze swept over the crowd, and then she said in a deep voice.

"The leaders and high-level members should be clear about the purpose of me calling you over this time."

The high-level members who were named were shocked. The first to react was Zheng Jing, who deliberately stepped forward a few steps, came to Tang Bingyan's throne, and answered softly.

"Rest assured, Emperor. Our Zheng family will definitely abide by our duties, from now on follow your lead, and pay membership fees and various treasures on time every month."

Tang Bingyan lowered her eyes and swept a glance at Zheng Jing in front of her, her gaze staying on him for only a second before moving away, as if he were an irrelevant person. ===== CHAPTER 766 =====

Tang Bingyan lowered her eyes and swept a glance at Zheng Jing in front of her, her gaze lingering on him for only a second before she looked away, as if he were an insignificant person.
