Chapter 222


Lin Zaozao listened to the smug voice of the system, feeling confused and puzzled in her heart.

[How can I strangle a ghost by myself? Isn't this a bit far-fetched?!]

[How is it far-fetched? You can even travel through worlds. Strangling a soul from another world now, how can that be far-fetched.]

The system said indifferently.

[System, you just said she stayed in this world to take revenge on me, but system, I haven't even seen her before, so how can there be any enmity between us that would make her want to take revenge on me to this extent?]

[Host, it's not because you were so bad that she wanted to take revenge on you. You have to know, in this world, there is a kind of person who is just born bad.

When she dislikes or hates someone else, there is simply no reason at all. This soul from another world wants to harm you because there is something wrong with her own mentality.

Alright host, the most urgent thing now is for you to hand over that lingering soul to me in exchange for the method to save Ye Yi's clan and the entire Canglan Country.

You've also seen that the fortune of the entire Canglan Country has been affected by this lingering soul to the point where the country is about to be destroyed.

If host Zaozao doesn't save Canglan Country soon, once Canglan Country's fortune is taken away, I'm afraid the people living in Lan City won't live long.]

[Fine! I'll give you this tattered soul, I have no use for her. Holding it in my hand is so sticky, she almost disgusts me to death.

But system, can you tell me what exactly is the enmity between me and the Empress of Canglan that is worth her dragging the entire Canglan Country to take revenge on me?]

[Host, the sticky feeling in your hands is the slaughter she created in this world.

Once she is reclaimed by the Heavenly Dao, she will have no more chances for reincarnation. For life after life, she can only exist as the unremarkable dust in the mortal world, despised and punished by the Heavenly Dao.

As for the grudge between you and this lingering soul, later when you reach the prayer platform in Canglan Imperial Palace, there is a great formation she set up that can change Canglan Country's fortune.

With the help of Ye Yi's elder sister, Princess Yexia, as long as you sit in the eye of the great formation, you will naturally be able to see the grudge between you two.

However host, the things between you and this lingering soul happened in your previous life.

Do you know, for your current self, this lingering soul is completely irrelevant?]

[Irrelevant? System, that lingering soul is going to take so many people down with her for burial, and just now she even wanted to absorb the fortune from my body. This matter can no longer be described as irrelevant.

So I must get to the bottom of what happened between my previous self and her. Also, Han Ye brother and State Preceptor Han Xibei have memories of their two lifetimes.

The reason they got close to me now has a lot to do with my previous life. I really want to know what exactly happened between them and my previous self now?]

[Host, since you want to know, then go to the prayer platform in Canglan Imperial Palace! The answers you want to know are there.

However host, you can only go to the prayer platform to find the answers after you have truly regained control of Canglan Country and changed Canglan Country's impending calamity.]

[No problem. The priorities come first, I'm not in that much of a hurry. But system, I want to ask, is that lingering soul and the Empress of Canglan completely separate individuals? If not then why do they look exactly the same?]

[No.]

[Then are they the same person?]

[Host, that lingering soul and the Empress of Canglan have a previous life-present life relationship. That lingering soul is the previous life of the Empress of Canglan.

As the empress of a nation, her conduct became so despicable, she truly died an utter failure.

At this time, Lin Zaozao was sitting on a chair blankly staring at the corpse of the Canglan Empress.

With the Canglan Empress dead, her wanting to seize Canglan Country's regime now would be extremely easy.

Moreover, there were too many Han Country spies implanted in Canglan Country.

She was now worried about what kind of reason she could use to stop the endless gossip of the world, so that she could smoothly incorporate Canglan Country into Han Country's territory.

"Uncle Zhang, has Ye Yi woken up yet?"

"Young Master, the Third Prince Ye Yi is still unconscious."

"The Empress of Canglan died right in front of me in front of so many people. What are the civil and military officials of Canglan Country doing now? Is anyone trying to avenge their Empress and investigate the cause of her death?"

"Young Master, they do want to, but they don't have any evidence either. After all, when the Empress of Canglan died, we didn't lay a finger on her."

"The civil and military officials of Canglan Country have now gathered in the Great Hall, waiting for the Third Prince Ye Yi to wake up and take charge of the situation."

Hearing the mocking tone in Uncle Zhang's voice, Lin Zaozao couldn't help but feel like laughing.

Before she came to Canglan Country, Ye Yi had already been stripped of his power by the Empress of Canglan.

A prince without power or influence and with a declining clan, what situation could he take charge of for them?

The reason why the civil and military officials of Canglan Country were now anxiously wanting Ye Yi to take charge of the situation for them was simply to control Ye Yi, so that they could "wield power in the name of the Emperor".

Some brainless fools, Ye Yi indeed had no power or influence in Canglan Country now, but he was her, Lin Zaozao's, husband.

And she, Lin Zaozao, was now the power and influence that Ye Yi could rely on.

She was just waiting at the moment to obtain Ye Yi's consent. After all, Canglan was Ye Yi's country.

And no matter how unworthy the Empress of Canglan was, she was still Ye Yi's Imperial Mother. She wanted to obtain Ye Yi's consent before taking his possessions.

"Your Majesty!"

A guard knelt beside Lin Zaozao and said.

"What is it?"

"Word is now spreading all over Lan City that you killed the Empress of Canglan, controlled the Third Prince Ye Yi, and wanted to seize Canglan."

"Where are these words coming from?"

Lin Zaozao took a sip of tea and asked casually.

"They were spread deliberately by some of the civil and military officials of Canglan before entering the palace."

"I see. Pass down my order not to stop them from spreading rumors. It's best to add fuel to the fire and let the rumors reach Fengshuo Country until everyone has heard about it."

Seeing the guard withdraw, Uncle Zhang looked at Lin Zaozao somewhat puzzled and said, "Young Master, why order people to exacerbate these rumors? If such rumors spread, it does not seem good for you to take over Canglan."
