《Rise of the Great Emperor 》Chapter 339: What a Good Performance
Advertisement
Lei Xing Yi stretched her hand and took out several strands of thread. It was the thread that Mu Xiao Ya used in the past to start controlling her. She found some of them and managed to keep it.
"If you try to use it, wouldn't you be able to recognize your daughter's Qi within the thread?" Lei Xing Yi asked once more in a cold tone.
The man couldn't say anything else. He was looking in their direction with tongue tied and really itching to snatch those threads for himself. If only he could destroy the evidence, it would be easy to say that it was nothing more than Lei Xing Yi framing them.
"You're only bluffing! You have been staying with Mu Xiao Ya for a long time! How can we be sure that you're not saying that for your own convenience?" a middle aged man screamed.
Lei Xing Yi looked at the man coldly. "Of course, I have eyewitness."
Swish!
The Secret Region door was open and several more figures walked out. Hu Fei looked at the crowd and whistled lazily while Prince Lin Yan followed beside him with calm expression. Behind them were Princess Lan Yi Hua, Lin Xiao, Prince Lin San, and Xia Ye.
Pei Chuan's expression changed when he saw Hu Fei. "No way!"
Hu Fei glanced at Pei Chuan. "Ah, so you're here, you b*stard Pei Chuan. Collaborating with Mu Xiao Ya and Sang Guan to kill me, you sure have a lot of guts."
Pei Chuan was stunned. "Nonsense! What are you talking about? I didn't…"
"What nonsense? If not because I managed to break the control of the Demonic Puppet, the two of us will have died. Even with the help of Brother Yan, it's still an unfair fight!" Lei Xing Yi had changed the story.

"No, you…"
"What? You still want to refute when I clearly see that you're collaborating with Mu Xiao Ya? Do you want me to show you the recording during the third stage when you all talked about how you want to kill Hu Fei to take the treasure he got during his visit to the Secret Region?" Lei Xing Yi asked aggressively.
Pei Chuan was horribly stunned. He naturally knew that he did talk with Mu Xiao Ya and Sang Guan before they attacked Hu Fei and the others. Because they were four Golden Core Stage 2 Cultivators, he believed that they would win.
But the truth was not that beautiful.
"There's no way you can record that conversation! You're already controlled by Mu Xiao Ya with Demonic…." Pei Chuan nearly blurted out everything. His face turned pale when he saw the elders were looking in his direction.
He's screwed.
Lei Xing Yi sneered. She had long known that Pei Chuan was not really a good person who knew how to keep a secret. In fact, he was one of the most loose lipped ones. Just by exerting enough pressure would be more than enough for him to speak the truth.
She glanced over at Hu Fei. "Thank you for your help to fight the Demonic Cultivator. When there's time, I'll pay a visit to you."
Hu Fei waved his hand. "It's nothing much. Since they're also targeting me, isn't it only natural for me to help out?"
Lei Xing Yi didn't continue with the conversation and walked over to her own group. She glanced at the others coldly. "I'm sure that you understood the repercussion of Demonic Puppet. In a weeks' time, I'll come with the others to your house. You better be ready, Elder Mu."

Elder Mu, Mu Xiao Ya's father, was already on the verge of losing his sanity when he saw how Lei Xing Yi acted and the way she did everything. So arrogant! So domineering!
He really wanted to flip table.
If not because he understood that Demonic Puppet would destroy the puppet's foundation, he would probably have lost control. Lei Xing Yi was a rare genius and yet she exposed her own condition to the crowd.
It was clear that the halo of the genius wouldn't be that high anymore.
"What a good performance." Hu Fei stretched his hand. "But now that I don't have any business here anymore, it's time to leave."
He walked forward and the elders were trying to think for a method to make him stay. However, they didn't think that there was anything that they could say to him anymore. The truth that Pei Chuan blurted out had told them so many things.
One of them was the fact that Hu Fei managed to gain some benefit and advanced to Golden Core Stage 2 and that he was also very powerful.
The story Pei Chuan said and Lei Xing Yi's words didn't match up, so the elders would need some investigation to find out the truth. However, asking Hu Fei to stay behind was a bit…
The thought of Marquis Hu paying them a visit because of this matter was proven to give them a bit of a headache.
"What is it?"
"Would you please give the story of the fight to us?" One of the elders asked carefully because he was afraid of offending Hu Fei.
Hu Fei's eyes narrowed. He knew very well that Lei Xing Yi was capable to create a story on her own without even relying on him. Besides, if his story didn't match with Lei Xing Yi, that would only spell more trouble
He waved his hand. "Just ask her what happened."
Lei Xing Yi's eyes flashed as she looked at Hu Fei. In the past, she always thought of Hu Fei as someone incompetent because of how famous he was with that reputation. But now that she met him directly and saw part of his fight…
She felt that he was more cunning than what he let out.
However, there was still a gap in their story because they could use soul search to investigate Pei Chuan's soul directly. At that moment, they would be able to find out that Hu Fei was indeed very powerful.

World of Alvarra: Rise of the Vampire Lord
Van was born a dhampir with memories of past lives that plague him. If he does not overcome them, he may face a slow descent into insanity. Growing up in a world where the memories of his past lives, clash with the truth of this strange new world. A world where women outnumber men to a large margin and are in control. Filled with magic, ki, aura, and creatures from other dimensions trying to break into his world to devour it. Will Van survive and thrive and make sense of it all? This is a story where I’m hoping to take some things and put them on its head. Everyone has heard of isekai about now, but has anyone ever really contemplated what it would be like to have voices, visions, or archaic ideas and views swim around a person's mind? We also hear about how the mc’s always gets the harem. But what if that's because there are more women than men and women are somewhat biologically different then the women we know from our world. Imagine a society where anyone can become strong and since there are more women than men, there are more stronger women than stronger men and now apply medieval history and a view that men are lower than women because the goddess made women in her image. And what if, the mc isn’t the only one with memories of past lives, and he meets some people who have been driven insane because of it? This is my first time writing a book and showing it to potential thousands of people. I won’t promise that my work will be good right off the bat. But I'm hoping that, with enough constructive criticism, I can provide an interesting read for all comers and improve to match and exceed the expectations put on me. The image used above does not belong to me. Warning! There is blood, gore, sex, and rape!(not anymore...) I may not be a good writer yet, but I will try to give a more realistic and authentic view of this world. This world and what you know of it will be of the view of the mc. So if something does not make sense to you, it probably does not to the mc ethier. Finally. For the sex or smut, scenes. I will hide them under spoiler. But you should not have to worry about it until somewhere around chapter nineteen or twenty, so if you don’t want to continue reading a book with sex, stop there. I will also be putting an NSFW sign in the chapter heading to warn people ahead of time. (all sex scenes will now be moved to my Patreon and scribblehub.) Thank you for reading and please help me become the writer I am hoping to be as well as the writer you all deserve to read from.
