Covering the Sky: I, Wang Teng, truly lack the bearing of an emperor.

Chapter 203 The bustling night, witnessing a "major event"

If we truly accept the personality of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor, then the Great Emperor Chaotic Ancient was not unjustly beaten back then.

Besides the struggle for the imperial path, there must have been other reasons why the Chaotic Ancient Emperor was constantly being sought after...

Of course, those things are kept secret.

Even if the Great Emperor of Chaos had a broad mind, he would not allow those things to continue to spread.

With the passing of those people, even the Great Emperor of Chaos probably felt that that period of history had vanished.

However, the Chaotic Ancient Emperor's weapon deity was a chatterbox, and casually revealed things that outsiders didn't know.

Wang Teng thought to himself, "It's a good thing the Chaotic Ancient Emperor perished. Otherwise, what if he were like the Ruthless Great Emperor, entrenched in some forbidden zone of life, calmly watching the Chaotic Ancient Emperor's weapon gods and his successors 'explain' the past?"

Wang Teng pondered that if the Chaotic Ancient Emperor were still alive, he, as an "insider" spanning hundreds of thousands of years, would probably be killed to silence him.
If you put yourself in someone else's shoes and think from their perspective, Wang Teng would probably kill someone to silence them if his own dark history were spread around.

"Senior, I think there's no need to mention these trivial matters. It's really not good for the Chaotic Ancient Emperor," Wang Teng transmitted his voice, subtly reminding the Chaotic Ancient Emperor of his divine power.

"Hahaha, it's nothing, just some trivial matters from the past. No one else would tell you anyway. That big black dog is alright, but it's a bit ruthless and might not be willing to reveal some of the Great Emperor's secrets. Talking to it is too boring." The Chaotic Ancient Emperor's weapon deity muttered to himself.

Wang Teng listened to his words and thought they made a lot of sense, so he pretended not to hear them.

For the next period of time, Ye Fan and Tu Fei traveled around the Azure Dragon King's small world, their goal being the Hall of Immortality.

Because Wang Teng had visited once and clearly expressed his dissatisfaction, the demon race's small world's attitude towards the Hall of Immortality had changed.

Although the Azure Dragon King did not speak, many people already had some guesses in their hearts.

This made it easier for Ye Fan and his group to enter the Hall of Immortality later on.

However, Wang Teng was not concerned about the Hall of Immortality.

He wasn't familiar with Pang Bo, and even less so with that so-called descendant of the Demon Emperor. In fact, Wang Teng felt quite uncomfortable with that so-called descendant of the Demon Emperor, so he completely pretended not to know or see what happened this time.

If you really force him to choose a side...

Wang Teng chose to remain an observer.

Like tonight.

"Does the princess think Qin Yao can win over that sacred body?" Wang Teng asked with a smile.

The two of them stood atop a mountain, bathed in moonlight, looking at the grand hall not far away, and casually discussing something.

"Brother Wang, you're really in high spirits. Did you make me come out so late just to witness this scene?" Yan Ruyu said with a hint of reproach, her gaze as clear as autumn water, rippling as she looked at Wang Teng.

The moonlight spilled down, casting a faint silver hue over everything around, like a veil of silver gauze.

Even so, it couldn't hide the faint blush on Yan Ruyu's face.

Whether she was a descendant of the Demon Emperor or a princess of the demon race, she was still a naive young girl who had never experienced such things. She was a little embarrassed to be suddenly pulled over by a man to witness the "night scene" tonight.

If Wang Teng hadn't been a true acquaintance, someone who had helped the demon race before, and someone with whom she had a genuinely good personal relationship, Yan Ruyu would probably have already turned away or even broken off relations by now.

"Of course not, it's just that this scene is... too memorable, and I just wanted to witness it. I have no urge to peep," Wang Teng said with a smile.

"Worth commemorating?" Yan Ruyu pondered these words seriously.

However, no matter how she thought about it, she didn't think it was anything particularly memorable. Ye Fan did possess the Ancient Sacred Body, but in the present day, this kind of physique was already recognized as a useless physique, even by the Holy Lands and the Ancient Families.

Although Qin Yao was Yan Ruyu's maid, there was an old saying in her previous life: "Even the lowest-ranking officials are in front of the prime minister's door."

From Yan Ruyu's perspective, Ye Fan is indeed somewhat unworthy of Qin Yao.

“Yes. This Ancient Sacred Body is somewhat special; it might be able to break through its limitations in the future,” Wang Teng said with a smile.

What Ye Fan experienced in the Azure Dragon King's treasure vault was no secret. Even though Yan Ruyu didn't have Wang Teng's precognitive abilities, she had heard others mention it. Ye Fan was suspected of obtaining the inheritance of the Ancient Sacred Body, which was comparable to that of ancient sages.

Yan Ruyu nodded without saying a word.

Under the moonlight, a man and a woman calmly watched the commotion in the distance.

Only when the palace was on the verge of collapse did Wang Teng speak, trying to attract Yan Ruyu's attention.

"Princess, that's about enough. It would be impolite to say any more," Wang Teng said with a smile.

Having come this far, Yan Ruyu should understand what will happen next.

So, with a slight blush, she nodded and followed Wang Teng away in the moonlight.

"After this incident, how should the demon race handle its relationship with that ancient holy body?" Yan Ruyu suddenly asked.

She is an extremely intelligent person, capable of analyzing a great deal from seemingly minor details.

For example, right now, without a special reason, Wang Teng would never casually bring her to admire this "beautiful scenery" under the moon.

“No special treatment is needed. Everything remains the same, just show some goodwill appropriately. With the protection of the Peacock King and the Azure Dragon King, he already has some goodwill towards the demon race,” Wang Teng said, reminding Yan Ruyu.

Often, trying too hard can backfire.

Even though he knew about the past and future of the world, Wang Teng rarely took the initiative to intervene in anything too obviously. At most, he would win over some followers and send them out to guard a region when there was turmoil in the future.

“I understand.” Yan Ruyu nodded. “You seem to admire that Ancient Sacred Body quite a bit, and believe that the other party is definitely able to break through the shackles?”

Yan Ruyu couldn't help but ask.

Throughout history, so many ancient holy bodies have emerged in the post-ancient era, but none of them have been able to successfully grow up. Yan Ruyu knew more or less about these things.

"Uncertain, but very likely," Wang Teng smiled.

"As for Qin Yao... just keep a little extra attention to her. Don't let the other demons harass her, and remind her not to be impulsive in any situation," Wang Teng continued.

In the original novel, Qin Yao's death was very inexplicable, almost like a plot device.

Now that Wang Teng has arrived, he naturally won't let Qin Yao perish so easily.

Wang Teng wouldn't waste his time creating chaotic situations, but he also wouldn't stand idly by while things unfolded.

If he can help, he'll lend a hand; as for the consequences...

Those things were all done by Ye Fan. What does it have to do with Wang Teng, who is supposed to be a helpful person?
The moonlight tonight is exceptionally noisy.
