The ancients watched me play the Starry Sky Railway

"But just as the Chaldeans were about to reach their doom, the First Emperor's voice drifted from the sky:"

"That's enough of the fun, Akechi Hinako... No, since you've been exposed, shall we still call you Yuji... or perhaps Fairy? It's not surprising that the ancients, upon seeing your immortal body, would mistake you for a fairy."

"When I hear the word 'ancients' come out of the First Emperor's mouth, Ritsuka always feels a sense of disconnection..."

"You call my anger and my curse a joke? King of the world!" Yu Meiren's rage continued unabated, even directed at the First Emperor.

"She's not the delicate literary girl she is in human form. She's got plenty of strength and skills!"

"If it's not a joke, what is it? Have you come all these long years to this day just to curse and ravage those people?" the First Emperor said calmly.

"…" Yuji's anger subsided slightly.

"O immortal being, oh true being, it is precisely because I admire your way of living that I cannot bear to see you lose your true nature."

"Return first, and then do what you must do. You still have a covenant to fulfill."

"The First Emperor said."

Yu Ji snorted coldly, "Hmph, to put it bluntly, you still hope that I will do something beneficial to you."

"The First Emperor: "I want you to think carefully about why you came here!"

"!!" Yu Ji's pupils dilated instantly.

"What is the relationship between these two?" Holmes speculated.

"And Gao Yanskaya frowned... Alliance? Could it be that there is a deal between Xiaojie and the First Emperor that I'm unaware of?"

"The First Emperor: "O man who has lived through the ages, you should not be blinded by momentary emotions. You must never forget what you truly desire, what you must do everything in your power to obtain."

Yuji glared at the Chaldeans fiercely and said, "Okay, I understand. I'll let you go for now."

"What I really want...isn't that Xiang Yu?"

"Such a strong woman was brutally manipulated just because of Xiang Yu. Love-brained people are really... enough is enough."

Yang Jian watched and shook his head.

Love brain is really scary.

Think about it, he was the same. Just for Dugu Jialuo, he was even afraid to take a concubine.

Apart from Dugu Qieluo, he only had one concubine.

An emperor and a concubine! Can you believe this?!

That is Lady Xuanhua Chen, the princess of the fallen Southern Chen Dynasty, the sister of Chen Shubao, and the only concubine that Dugu Qieluo allowed Yang Jian to favor.

(Yang Jian had a total of five concubines in his life. Yuchi was executed by Dugu Jialuo before she was given the title of concubine, which led to Yang Jian running away from home... The other three were not taken into the harem until after Dugu Jialuo's death.)

Think about it, Tangtang, an emperor, living such a miserable life. It’s all the fault of being in love!

"From now on, I will never be in love again!" He quietly clenched his fists and encouraged himself in a low voice.

"Hmm? What did Your Majesty say?" Dugu Jialuo didn't hear clearly.

"Hehe, what I mean is that the love between Yu Meiren and Xiang Yu is truly admirable." Yang Jian said hurriedly with a smile.

"Yes." Dugu Jialuo wiped away her tears.

Love that spans thousands of years is so touching.

"After Yuji disappeared, Mashu breathed a sigh of relief."

"Phew, I'm exhausted." Koyanskaya's fox tail drooped, looking exhausted. "Casting magic is indeed troublesome. From this point of view, human-made weapons are much easier to use. All you have to do is pull the trigger."

"Goyanskaya, did you know from the beginning that Akagi Hinako was a poppy?" Holmes asked.

"The fact that the legendary poppy is a True Ancestor is shocking enough, but then again, that monster has infiltrated Chaldea and volunteered to be a candidate for spirit particle transfer... I really don't understand." Da Vinci's mind was a little confused.

"Well, if we only list the results, this series of events is already on par with the Nine Lotus Lanterns. However, if we trace the cause, it's actually very simple. It was intentional by the previous director of Chaldea. That explains it," said Gao Yanskaya with a smile.

"So that's what happened..." Holmes had already suspected: "The first director, Malisbury, may seem kind, but he's actually a brilliant magician."

"And a magus's view of good and evil is completely different from that of an ordinary person."

"Yes, although Director Malisbury is a man of justice, he also seeks to do the best for himself as a magician."

"Isn't Malisbury worried? Can soul transfer really be successful? Even if the theory is correct, can humans really do it?"

"While pondering these issues, he found the trump card of last resort: Poppy."

"If humans are going to die because they can't withstand the transfer of soul particles, then we can just let the immortal True Ancestor do it. After all, they can be resurrected after death."

“To this end, he even deliberately created a disguised identity like Akechi Hinako, recruiting ‘her’, who was hidden in the shadows of history, to Chaldea.”

"As she spoke, Koyanskaya fanned herself, looking quite pleased with herself for having escaped death."

"Da Vinci reminisced, "Indeed, Aku Hinako was already a Chaldea employee before Team A was formed. It seems the first director was determined to verify the transfer of spirit particles at all costs."

"But, Poppy... after all, she's a True Ancestor, so how could she accept the offer from the First Director?" Mashu asked, puzzled.

"From what she knew, the True Ancestor was undoubtedly one of the world's top beings. How could he be recruited so easily?"

"And judging from past experience, the first director didn't even give Yu Ji any preferential treatment."

"Oh, you find this incredible?" Koyanskaya raised an eyebrow. "Never mind. Someone whose life is destined to end can't understand the thoughts of someone who can never die."

"Hey, I have such a bad temper!"

Ying Zheng was angry.

Isn’t it great to be immortal?

Why are you pretending? Do you look down on ordinary people like them who will die?

He must get immortality!

He wanted to see what was so great about immortality!

Oh, world, don't be polite, just use immortality to ravage him as much as you want!

"Your Majesty." Zhao Gao's eyes swiveled as he came up with an idea. "You created the Xiang Yu in the sky, and Yu Ji was in love with him... Does this mean that Yu Ji is somewhere near Xianyang during this era? Why not send someone to look for her?"

Why not take advantage of this opportunity in advance? With such an immortal partner, maybe I can also achieve immortality?

It’s so nice that you don’t have to worry about the evil spirit body you get from worshipping the God of Plenty.

But Ying Zheng just looked at him as if he were a fool.

"Believe it or not, if I announce that I'm looking for Concubine Yu, tens of thousands of young and beautiful Concubines will immediately appear in Xianyang City."

Zhao Gao: “…”

Damn, that was careless.
