The old woman in the palace woke up earlier than usual and asked for breakfast earlier than usual, so when she got up to have a meal, there was no sunrise in Luoyang City.

The old woman had a good appetite. She drank a bowl of porridge and a bowl of fish ball soup, and even added a bowl of porridge.

When the second bowl of porridge was brought to her, she asked a young palace maid outside the door to her and then signaled the young palace maid to sit down opposite her.

"They all went to Shangqiu, why did you stay here?"

The old woman added a spoonful of sugar to this bowl of pumpkin porridge and slowly stirred it. During this process, she looked at the eyebrows and eyes of the young palace maid in front of her, and then said, "In theory, even if you don't go to Shangqiu, you shouldn't stay in Luoyang. If the Demon Sect comes to Luoyang and he doesn't kill you, his tribes should be the first to think of killing you."

The young palace maid's face was very calm, and she said, "It's probably because you are in Luoyang."

The old woman suddenly laughed and said, "Your name is Helan Heiyun?"

The young palace maid nodded and said, "Yes."

The old woman looked at her with a little satisfaction. She slowly drank the slightly sweet pumpkin porridge and said, "Tell me a word."

"good."

The young woman dressed in the palace maid was Helan Heiyun. She was not nervous and didn't feel like she had nothing to say. She even scooped a bowl of fish ball soup from the stone pot and drank it slowly, then said: "I know that Zhongshan Wang Yuanying and the others didn't want me to survive at first, but then it was your intention that I survived."

The old woman looked at her and smiled and said, "To be honest, I was a little surprised. You even found out such a thing, but if you want to repay your kindness, there is no need. You were originally a subordinate of the Demon Sect and our very dangerous enemy. You can survive because I was surprised by your willpower, and I think it would be valuable for you to survive."

"If you say repay your kindness, then you'll pass."

Helan Heiyun drank the fish ball soup. She felt it was a little light, and she found that there was only sugar and no salt on the table. So she simply poured a bowl of fish ball soup into her mouth, chewed it for a few seconds and swallowed it. "But I learned a lot in this process at least. I knew that some people might not fulfill their promises, but they would not make any promises with some people... but they did not need to make any promises."

“That’s natural.”

The old woman was a little proud, "Yuan never treats her friends unfairly."

"The Lord of the Demon Sect always thinks you are scary." Helan Heiyun frowned slightly, and she began to seriously and whisper: "He has a high opinion of you. Although he thinks you are too old, and his cultivation is as good as the Three Saints of the South Heaven at most, he cannot surpass the Three Saints of the South Heaven. Because you are too old, in terms of combat power, he feels that you cannot surpass any of the Three Saints of the South Heaven. But he feels that the martial arts you know and the understanding of many methods of cultivation may be greater than that of the Three Saints of the South Heaven. Until two years ago, he specially helped you find spiritual medicines that help your longevity, because he was afraid that you would learn Shen Yue and suddenly take him out of this world."

The old woman seemed to find it a little funny when she heard it. She pursed her lips, shook her head, and said, "He is smart, but he is too sharp."

"If you don't deny it, it means that his speculation should be correct."

Helan Heiyun looked at her and said, "In theory, if you want to kill the Demon Sect, you should also go to Shangqiu, but you stayed in Luoyang."

The old woman restrained her smile and said, "So this is also the reason for you to stay here."

Helan Heiyun nodded and said, "So I think you may not necessarily think that killing the Demon Sect is the most important thing, or that there are more important things here that need to be handled."

The old woman didn't say anything, but just imitated Helan Heiyun's fish ball soup just now, and drank all the pumpkin porridge in the bowl in one mouthful, and then said, "Stop it."

"This kind of massacre of ordinary soldiers... is not what the Demon Sect likes. Even if he wants to continue to kill people to replenish his true energy, he will not use such a stupid method." Helan Heiyun looked at her and said more seriously: "The Demon Sect is smarter than any of his tribes, including me, so since it is something I can think of, he will definitely want it."

The old woman exclaimed a little, "So, do you think there are people in this world who can force him to do things he doesn't like to do?"

"He is already the only saint in the world, which is logically impossible." Helan Heiyun said: "But the truth is not as good as the fact. Since he did this, it means that someone can really force him to do something he doesn't like."

"I felt something wrong before... before moving the capital to Luoyang, something happened in those important towns in the north made me feel something was wrong. I always felt that some people seemed to be secretly watching this world from a condescending moment."

The old woman also became serious. She looked up at the sky outside and said, "I just checked for many years, but those people have never shown any flaws. I'm afraid that until now, these people can finally appear in my sight."

Helan Heiyun was a little shocked and said, "You know it is..."

"I don't know." The old woman interrupted her words simply and said, "But now it should be concluded that the power that makes me feel uneasy and does not seem to exist really should be the one who forces the Demon Sect."

"So what I thought of, you have already thought of it." Helan Heiyun took a deep breath and said, "I asked Xiao Donghuang to arrange for me to come to see you in the palace because I felt that I knew the Demon Sect better than you."

The old woman laughed really, she even looked at Helan Heiyun with some pity and said, "Actually, you won't appear in this palace without my intention."

Helan Black Cloud was slightly stunned.

The old woman looked into her eyes and said, "I just told you that I let you survive before because I was surprised by your willpower and ability to endure pain. I said you are very useful. Of course, you are still very young, and your character and view of this world are not stable in my opinion, and there are even endless possibilities for change. But at least until now, you are very satisfied with me."

Helan Heiyun's brows frowned deeply. She was silent for a while and then asked, "What are you going to let me do?"

The old woman looked at her calmly and said, "Inheriting a powerful force I have given you. In my opinion, this power is also very likely the power the other party wants to seize after using the Demon Sect to lure the tiger away from the mountain."

Helan Heiyun's breathing was slightly paused, and she thought of a possibility, "Will it be painful to use this power, and it requires strong willpower?"

"It's very much for people to bear it." said the old woman.

Helan Heiyun had countless questions in his mind at this time, and the old woman also knew it very well.
