Hey, you are reborn too?

"I have spoken out of turn."

The masked man bent slightly and bowed towards them, but his body remained upright and no emotion could be discerned in his voice.

Although the emperor and the empress dowager were dissatisfied, they could not get angry immediately. After all, they were counting on this man to retreat Beili’s army.

"Well," the emperor raised his head and exhaled, "I will trust you just once. However, you risked being discovered by Beili and came to Dayuan to help. Isn't that a bit too kind?"

Sensing the emperor's hidden message, the empress dowager continued, "If you have any requests, just ask them now."

"My personal request," the Imperial Master seemed stunned for a moment, then said after a moment's pause, "Be kind to the Saint Girl sent by Beili for marriage."

"Wait," the emperor could not help but frown, "How do you know that Beili will let the Saint Girl marry? Now Beili's army is much stronger than Dayuan's. If there is a marriage, it should be Princess Dayuan who goes to Beili to marry."

“Well,” the masked man paused, his voice still calm, “of course I calculated it.”

The emperor nodded slightly, and it was unclear whether it meant he accepted the statement, but at least he did not express any doubts openly.

"Well," the emperor looked at the masked man again, "that's the only thing you ask for, isn't it?"

"Yes."

"Okay, then go and cast the spell now."

"Your Majesty," the masked man said in a neither humble nor arrogant voice, "To perform this ritual, you need real dragon blood. Please allow me to draw some blood from your finger."

"Why?"

The emperor clenched his fists, narrowed his eyes, frowned, and unconsciously leaned back slightly.

"Your Majesty," the man in black said calmly, without any fear of being questioned, "Beili's national fortune is blessed by the Holy Son at this time, and it does not show any signs of decline. If you want to destroy Beili's national fortune, the best way is to curse the Holy Son directly. If you want to curse Beili's Holy Son..."

The man in black paused at the right moment, and when he saw the emperor's frown slowly relax, he continued, "I don't want to make him look so arrogant, but this is the fact. Only a true dragon can interfere with the fate of a true dragon. In other words, apart from you, no one else in the world can resist him."

"Boom!"

There was a sudden thunder outside, and the sky became darker.

The muffled thunder rolled over people's hearts, bringing out all the fear in their hearts. The young eunuch standing outside the Yangxin Palace, because his legs were shaking all the time, suddenly lost his balance and slipped directly into the rain outside the eaves.

"Pfft"!

He was about to cry out "Ouch" when he suddenly saw the gloomy eyes of Eunuch Cao.

The complaint was stuck in the little eunuch's throat. He was like a balloon that had been deflated very quickly and quietly. He did not dare to make a sound. He hurriedly climbed up and stood back in his original position with his wet clothes on.

Inside the Yangxin Hall.

Hundreds of colored glass lamps lit up, making the entire Yangxin Palace as bright as day. Unlike the gloomy night outside, the palace was brightly lit, completely unaffected by the night rain.

Wow…

The rain was pouring down, landing on the window frames in groups. The rain was as fierce as the Beili army that had brazenly invaded Dayuan, beating Dayuan without a word, and leaving the people of Dayuan homeless.

"I see." The emperor nodded slightly.

Doesn't this sudden night rain remind him of the precarious abyss in the wind and rain?

The raindrops hit the windowsill, but it seemed like they were hitting his tired heart one by one.

The pain of being unable to protect the people filled the emperor's heart. His clenched fists were shaking and his body was spasming uncontrollably.

If he hadn't sat on the chair at this moment, he would have been unable to stand.

"What's going on?" The masked man's voice sounded with a thunderous roar. It actually sounded a bit joking. "Your Majesty is the son of a true dragon and you have a sincere heart to protect the people. I heard that Your Majesty is worried about the Beili army and has been sleepless for several nights. Now the way to deal with the Beili army is right in front of you. It's so simple and so efficient, but Your Majesty has backed down."

The rumbling of thunder, amid the sound of clear rain, was like the muffled strings of a musical instrument, which could only emit a faint dull sound, disturbing people's hearts and making them uneasy.

The emperor's breathing became rapid. If the person in front of him really had the ability to seize Beili's national destiny, then wouldn't he also have the ability to seize his own destiny?

He was so frightened by his own thoughts that he broke out in a cold sweat, and his pupils suddenly shrank - he was really careless just now, and he almost agreed to this person's empty words and gave his blood to this unknown person in front of him.

It would be fine if the person in front of him had no ill intentions, but if he had malicious intentions and he gave him his blood, wouldn't that accelerate the demise of the Abyss?

"You keep saying that you are the Beili Imperial Master." The sound of thunder rolling faded, and the emperor's voice could be clearly heard in the Yangxin Palace, with a hint of gloom. "Then do you have a token that can prove that you are the Beili Imperial Master?"

"Your Majesty, are you suspicious?"

Although the words contained obvious doubts, the masked man spoke them as calmly as dead water.

This voice, as calm as the deep sea, echoed in the Yangxin Palace, making it seem inexplicably gloomy. At this moment, even hundreds of burning lights could not dispel this inexplicable chill.

The Emperor and the Empress Dowager shuddered violently.

Something is wrong. The temperature in the Yangxin Palace was obviously not that low just now. Why did the indoor temperature drop suddenly when the masked man was speaking?

This cold feeling makes people extremely uncomfortable, as if countless small insects called "fear" are crawling freely in their bodies, making people feel goosebumps.

"You..." The emperor just said this when he found that his teeth were trembling. His voice became a little weaker, but with a bit of gnashing of teeth. "What kind of monster are you?!"

"I am a monster?" The man raised his head and looked at the emperor through the bronze mask. His voice suddenly lengthened, "Of course I am a monster. If I am not a monster, who else can have such magical powers to drive away tens of thousands of Beili troops outside the city in one go?"

His voice was not loud, but it was clearly audible amid the thunder.

Every word that Beili Imperial Master uttered was like a heavy hammer striking hard on the hearts of the Emperor and the Empress Dowager.

They subconsciously looked at each other and saw deep fear in each other's eyes.

They now realize that they have been courting disaster all along.

"What's wrong?" The man's calm voice sounded again, and this time it was like a life-threatening rope tightly tied around the necks of the empress dowager and the emperor, making it almost impossible for them to breathe. "Are you scared?"

The Empress Dowager and the Emperor dared not utter a word. They stared at the man who called himself a "monster", fearing that he would suddenly explode.

The two of them felt as if there were raging waves in their hearts. Their curled fingers kept twitching and they didn't open their mouths to respond to him.

Seeing that no one responded, National Master Beili spoke himself.

"I was just saying it casually," Beili State Master spread his hands helplessly, his voice rarely carrying a hint of helplessness, finally sounding more human, "I didn't expect you to actually believe it. Why, are you so timid?"

As he spoke, the temperature in the Hall of Mental Cultivation dropped as if it were under control.

The Empress Dowager and the Emperor couldn't help but shudder again.
