Chapter 177

Furthermore, his Imperial Brother has no children.

Duan Yu has a great chance of becoming the Emperor of the Dali Duan Clan.

Therefore, Duan Yu must be the child of Duan Zhengchun.

"Duan Yanqing, do you still remember the woman in white who appeared before you all those years ago?"

"You took her to be the manifestation of the White-Robed Bodhisattva."

"If not for her back then, you surely would have already committed suicide, right?"

Xiao Yuanshan said.

Upon hearing this, Duan Yanqing's expression changed instantly.

"What is the meaning of what you say?"

Duan Yanqing asked with a frown.

"The woman who appeared before you back then was named Dao Baifeng; she is Duan Zhengchun's legal wife."

"Duan Yu is the child she bore after that affair you two had."

Xiao Yuanshan simply stated the truth of the matter.

"That is impossible!"

Duan Zhengchun was the first to speak up in rebuttal.

"How could Feng'er do such a thing?"

"This must be you spouting nonsense!"

Duan Zhengchun roared loudly in extreme fury.

Although his marriage to Dao Baifeng was a political one, Dao Baifeng had become a Daoist nun because she could not stand his philandering nature.

However, Duan Zhengchun still could not accept what Xiao Yuanshan had said.

"My mother is not the kind of person you describe."

"How could my father possibly be this villainous Duan Yanqing!"

Duan Yu also could not accept it.

"Whether it is true or not, you can confront each other once you return to Dali."

"My task is now complete."

"Next, I have my own business to attend to."

"Southern Murong Bo, since you have already arrived, then come out."

"Do not hide away any longer; if you do not come out, I will have to make a move against Southern Southern Murong Fu!"

Xiao Yuanshan said in a cold voice.

His tone carried not a shred of emotion.

The crowd of the Northern Song Jianghu had been looking forward to Duan Yu's true identity being exposed.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yuanshan had actually stopped and was instead calling out a person's name.

Southern Southern Murong Fu, who was in the middle of fighting Jiu Mozhi, was extremely astonished upon hearing his father's name.

He had seen his father's burial with his own eyes back then.

How could he possibly appear in this place?

……

Just as these events were unfolding at Tianning Temple.

The Yin-Yang School of the Great Qin welcomed a group of uninvited guests.

Zhao Gao and the Six Sword Slaves of the Net.

"Zhao Gao, what have you come to my Yin-Yang School for?"

"Does His Majesty have some new instructions?"

Lord Donghuang asked coldly.

Although he was no longer the leader of the Yin-Yang School.

He was the one who handled such matters of contact with Zhao Gao.

Therefore, he was handling it today as well.

Usually, Lord Donghuang would send someone to meet Zhao Gao; that he could personally appear today was not to give Zhao Gao face, but to give face to the Great Qin, to Ying Zheng, and to Ying Ziyu.

He assumed Zhao Gao had come to the Yin-Yang School today representing the Great Qin.

After all, whenever Ying Zheng had instructions, it was basically Zhao Gao who came to convey them.

"Lord Donghuang has misunderstood."

"I have not come this time under His Majesty's instructions."

"But rather for some private matters."

Zhao Gao said indifferently.

Since things were not working out with the Flower-Moving Palace, and he had also hit a wall with His Majesty.

Zhao Gao could only try to negotiate with the Yin-Yang School.

Of course, he did not dare to covet Shao Siming or Lord Dongjun Yanfei.

Either the Moon God or the Great Commander would suffice to be married to Hu Hai as a concubine.

"What matter?"

Upon hearing that Ying Zheng had not sent Zhao Gao, Lord Donghuang's attitude immediately became even colder.

Zhao Gao also sensed it.

But he still had to state his business.

If he did not find a way to strengthen the power in his hands, Zhao Gao had absolutely no confidence in defeating Ying Ziyu.

"I have come to propose a marriage for the Eighteenth Prince."

"I hope Lord Donghuang can bear the pain of parting with one of them, and let either the Moon God or the Great Commander marry the Eighteenth Prince as a concubine."

Zhao Gao did not hesitate and stated his purpose directly.

When conversing with someone like Lord Donghuang, one absolutely must not hide anything.

One must state the matter directly and concisely.

"Zhao Gao, are you not looking down on my Yin-Yang School too much?"

"My Yin-Yang School's Right Protector, the Moon God, and one of the Five Great Elders, the Great Commander, are only fit to be concubines for the Eighteenth Prince in your eyes?"

Lord Donghuang asked in a cold voice.

The temperature inside the room plummeted instantly.

The pressure of the Earth Immortal Realm was released.

Zhao Gao suddenly felt his breathing become difficult.

He gritted his teeth and said: "Lord Donghuang has misunderstood, that is not what I meant; making them concubines is only to deceive the public."

"My true purpose is to strengthen the relationship between the Net and you."

"Now that Lord Dongjun is the leader of the Yin-Yang School, and you were forced to step down from the position, surely your heart is filled with unwillingness, and you are constantly thinking of returning to the leader's position."

"As long as you agree to this matter, I will find a way to have His Majesty step in and help you become the leader of the Yin-Yang School once again."

Zhao Gao offered his conditions.

He had not received any promises from Ying Zheng.

However, this explanation was one he had already prepared, specifically to hoodwink Lord Donghuang.

As for whether it could be fulfilled in the end, Zhao Gao did not consider it much; he would get what he needed first, and worry about the rest later.

"Zhao Gao, oh Zhao Gao, I originally thought you were a smart man."

"Unexpectedly, seeing you today, you are actually a foolish person."

"Blinded by worldly power and desire."

"As a martial artist, the most important thing is always one's own strength."

"I am indeed no longer the leader of the Yin-Yang School, but what I have gained is far more than when I was the leader."

As Lord Donghuang spoke, he began to laugh heartily.

After contemplating the techniques used by Lord Dongjun and Shao Siming, he clearly felt his strength increase, and his Yin-Yang arts had become even more formidable.

Lord Donghuang had always wanted to find an opportunity to visit Xianyang and pay his respects to Ying Ziyu.

He was thinking of personally seeking guidance from Ying Ziyu.

Therefore, regarding Lord Dongjun becoming the leader of the Yin-Yang School, Lord Donghuang was not only not envious, jealous, or hateful, but was actually very supportive. ===== CHAPTER 178 =====
