She became a god

"I have one more question for you: Is Her Majesty Wan Jun dead?"

Cang Lan shook her head. "I'm not sure. The existence of Her Majesty Wan Jun is a secret known only to Qingzhou Evil Emperor's confidants. In addition, although Her Majesty Wan Jun is a murderer, her cultivation level is only at the Refinement stage, and her reputation among the evil cultivators is not prominent."

"It's not impossible that the powerful beings of the Six Realms might have missed killing her back then."

Anqi, however, seized upon the loophole in Canglan's words, "Since she only has the cultivation of the Void Refinement stage, why are you so afraid of her?"

"Because Her Majesty Wan Jun can borrow the full power of the Evil Emperor in certain situations, this is why there are rumors that Her Majesty Wan Jun is the Evil Emperor of Qingzhou."

"A pair of twins, the older sister is human but has mediocre talent. The younger brother is a wisp of green energy, yet he is powerful enough to destroy the entire Yunying Continent. The siblings can also borrow each other's bodies and powers, how strange!"

Angie is an only child, and she cannot understand the mysterious connection between twins.

But she wasn't stupid. "You swear to me with your Dao heart, have you ever seen the siblings appear together?"

Canglan replied truthfully, "I have seen it. It was at the ceremony when the Evil Emperor declared himself emperor."

Sixteen thousand years ago, there was a cultivator who created countless evil cultivation techniques, recruited many disciples, and gained the love and respect of countless evil cultivators who worshipped him as their master.

This cultivator, who called himself "Qingzhou," established an evil path, harming countless living beings in the six realms, and was intolerable to all living beings.

The most powerful beings and geniuses of the six realms gathered together to fight against the Evil Emperor. It took them thousands of years to finally perish together with the evil path and the Evil Emperor.

That battle was hailed as the most arduous war on the Yunying Continent.

It was after the great battle against evil that the spiritual energy between heaven and earth was greatly depleted, and no cultivator was able to successfully ascend to immortality anymore.

For a long time, everyone believed that the Evil Emperor and his confidants died in the Great War to Exterminate Evil.

Now, Canglan has proposed a title for Your Majesty Wanjun.

Does this cultivator, Your Highness Wan Jun, really exist?

Is her relationship with the Evil Emperor really just that of a pair of slightly special twins?

With suspicions arising, Anqi had no choice but to ask for clarification.

"Why is it that, apart from you, no other cultivator remembers Her Highness Wan Jun?"

Cang Lan remained calm. "Wen Ning, the head of Canghai Pavilion, and Mu Sha of Yu Kingdom both know of Her Majesty Wan Jun's existence. If Your Majesty does not trust me, you may write to those two."

Anqi had heard of Senior Mu Sha's name, but she only learned today that the Pavilion Master of Canghai Pavilion was named Wen Ning.

Therefore, Anqi decided to contact Senior Mu Sha first to verify whether the Lady Wanjun existed and whether she was still alive.

Back then, when Mu Sha protected the women of Yu Kingdom and established their own country, she owed the Underworld a favor in order to gain their support.

If it weren't for the significant connection between the Evil Emperor and the "Tales of the Underworld," An Qi would never have wanted to use this precious favor.

But compared to that vague and ethereal human connection, finding the last two parts of "Tales of the Underworld" and attaining enlightenment and ascension is more reliable.

In the silence, Angie suddenly spoke, "Why did you want to kill her in the first place?"

Canglan said in a deep voice, "Because I thought she was the reincarnation of Her Majesty Wanjun. I lost the thirty-six Sea-Stabilizing Pearls. If Her Majesty Wanjun knew, she would definitely kill me."

"If I discover during my communication with her that she is Her Highness Wan Jun, I will kill her even at the cost of breaking my oath."

Anqi pondered, "Are you more afraid of Her Majesty Wanjun or the Evil Emperor Qingzhou?"

After a moment, Canglan replied, "Naturally it is the Evil Emperor Qingzhou, but the Evil Emperor Qingzhou is dead. Her Majesty Wanjun's fate is unknown, and I am most afraid of Her Majesty Wanjun now."

"Even if Her Majesty Wan Jun were alive, her cultivation level might not be higher than yours, and she can't borrow the abilities of the Evil Emperor Qingzhou. What do you have to be afraid of her for?"

Upon hearing this, Cang Lan said in a trembling voice, "No, you don't understand. Her Majesty Wan Jun never harms people with force, but with poisonous schemes. If you offend Her Majesty Wan Jun, you won't even know how you died."

"You think you're better than her, but you're just a puppet acting according to her script. The puppet thinks it has its own thoughts, but it doesn't know that she has long predicted the puppet's thoughts and is letting the puppets go to their destruction in the pursuit of self."

Anqi exclaimed in surprise, "If what you say is true, Her Majesty Wanjun's destructive power is no less than that of the Evil Emperor."

Canglan murmured, "If the Evil Emperor and Her Majesty Wanjun had truly cooperated, the Evil Emperor might have been the one to win the great war against evil ten thousand years ago."

"Aren't they genuinely cooperating?"

“Of course not.” Canglan revealed another secret, “His Majesty the Evil Emperor and His Highness Wanjun had different ideas, and later they even fell apart because of a woman.”

"Who is that woman?"

"Lu Tong, the 168th generation patriarch of the Lu clan of Yingdu."

Anqi frowned, "I remember that Senior Lu Tong ascended to heaven before the Great War of Exterminating Evil."

"Yes, His Majesty the Evil Emperor captured Lu Tong and wanted to torture her to death. But His Highness Wan Jun released her and even helped her ascend to immortality. This was the fuse that caused the falling out between the siblings."

Anqi asked in confusion, "Didn't you say that Wanjun was unpredictable and loved to torture people? Why is she so good to Lu Tong?"

"It's mostly for one word—love."

If it were for other reasons, Angie could still argue a bit more.

But when it comes to love, Anqi, who has mastered the Way of Ruthlessness, cannot understand it. She has never understood why some fellow Daoists would risk their lives for the sake of love.

What is love in this world that makes people willing to die for it?

Anqi felt a sense of bewilderment. Although she had avoided countless troubles by cultivating the ruthless path to shun the world, she also had an invisible barrier in terms of worldly affairs, like being separated by clouds, and could never see things very clearly.

"You've revealed all of this to me. Aren't you afraid that Her Majesty Wanjun will seek revenge?"

"To be honest, it was precisely because I feared Your Majesty Wanjun that I decided to join your ranks. In any case, as the Lord of the Underworld, you are one of the most righteous and capable protectors of me."

Angie asked many questions, and Canglan's answers were all acceptable.

However, Anqi always felt a vague unease in her heart.

For some reason, she suddenly remembered Ye Aizhu's last comment: "Everything is made wrong in haste; the wise wait for the right opportunity before acting."

But can she really afford to wait any longer?

Feng Jiaojiao has already reached the Tribulation Transcending stage. The power dynamics of the Six Realms are changing, and she has lost the right to remain calm and collected.

The underworld must not be weaker than any other realm.

Over the years, the Human Lord Xuanyuan Wuji, the Buddha Lord Bodhi True Buddha, and the Heavenly Lord Fu Zichen have all entered the Great Perfection Realm of the Mahayana Stage, while I have only entered the Great Perfection Realm a few decades earlier than them, so the difference is almost ≈0.

The Demon Lord Shi Guang remained silent for a long time, and it was unknown whether she had entered the Tribulation Transcending stage like Feng Jiao Jiao.

Time waits for no one, and Angie can't wait any longer.

If I wait any longer, what if Feng Jiaojiao ascends to immortality while I haven't even reached the Tribulation Transcending stage? That would be terrible.
