This startled Wuxing, who quickly hugged Yulan tightly and anxiously called out to her. Seeing this, the Ghost Doctor also rushed to the Ghost King's side.
After the Ghost Doctor performed acupuncture on the Ghost King, she gradually calmed down, and Wuxing had already carried her to the couch at the head of the table.
Looking at the smug Ghost Prime Minister below, Lin Yaoxie suddenly felt a surge of anger. This Ghost Prime Minister actually looked more like a villain than he did; it seemed this was the real one.
"A villainous character," Lin Yaoxie thought to himself.
Upon seeing Yulan's appearance, the Ghost Prime Minister was even more delighted. He then turned to the remaining officials and said:
"Our Ghost King is not only incompetent, but she has also been trying to give the talismans of all the previous Ghost Kings of our Samsara Realm to an outsider. She has already been punished. Do you still want to support her as king?"
Lin Yaoxie looked at the remaining officials below, who were all exchanging glances, seemingly unable to make a decision. However, several officials spoke up loudly:
"I acknowledge only one Ghost King, the one currently at the head of the list. I do not acknowledge any others. Ghost Prime Minister, if you do this, you will be scorned by the entire Realm of Reincarnation."
Chapter 262 An Invisible Warning
After seeing Yulan's condition, the Ghost Prime Minister initially felt victory was assured. After all, Yulan was seriously injured and hadn't fully recovered. Moreover, she had recently sent away many of her trusted confidants.
Meanwhile, the Ghost Prime Minister secretly developed his own power base during that time. Because he was already a relatively senior prime minister, he had many followers of his own.
As a result, even many of the other neutral people felt that the Ghost Prime Minister was certain of victory. Therefore, the current situation is still very precarious for Yulan.
However, as soon as that official said those words, a large number of officials still walked to the other side, distancing themselves from the Ghost Prime Minister.
Ghost Prime Minister 957 looked at the officials before him who had distanced themselves from him, his expression freezing for a moment, but he quickly composed himself and continued, looking at them, he said:
"You need to think this through carefully. You can't always seize every opportunity. If you make this choice, you might regret it later."
“You all know that when the previous Ghost King left office, he entrusted this Realm of Reincarnation to me. So I certainly wouldn’t do something like forcing someone to abdicate when I have nothing.”
"If you are truly certain of your choice, then I will not force you. Just know how long I have been planning for this day!"
After the Ghost Doctor administered acupuncture to Yulan, she slowly regained consciousness. She stared at the unseen figure, momentarily disoriented. Only when she saw the tense situation below did she realize that everything that had just happened was real.
Whether it was the opposition to her decision or the Ghost Prime Minister's rebellion, it was all true. All the kindness she had shown the Ghost Prime Minister now seemed particularly ironic.
Yulan struggled to her feet, then pointed at the Ghost Prime Minister and said, "Ghost Prime Minister, are you sure you want to go against me like this? If you do this, there will be no place for you in the Realm of Reincarnation."
Unexpectedly, after hearing Yulan's words, the Ghost Prime Minister burst into laughter. After laughing, he turned to look at Yulan and then said:
"Don't try to flatter me anymore. Do you really think I don't know? How many guards and trusted confidants have you sent out of the Realm of Reincarnation to search for things these past few days? You have almost no one left by your side!"
Upon hearing this, Yulan's eyes flickered, and the Ghost Doctor quickly went over to support her. Lin Yaoxie, upon hearing this, also turned to look at the pale-faced Ghost King.
Lin Yaoxie understood that this might be related to Zi Yuehan again. However, Lin Yaoxie couldn't ask now, because he also felt that he couldn't let this Ghost Prime Minister know about Zi Yuehan's existence, otherwise it would become another hidden danger.
Yulan was momentarily speechless after being spoken to like that by the Ghost Prime Minister. Wuxing patted her hand to reassure her. Then Wuxing stood up and walked to Lin Yaoxie.
The figure invisibly looked at the people below and said, "Even if you have truly acquired many abilities, I still have the power of the Heavenly Court, which can intervene and prevent you from succeeding."
Chapter 263 Demons Stabilize the Situation
Wuxing felt extremely distressed looking at Yulan. Yulan was so angry that she couldn't speak. Yulan, who was already recovering from her injuries, was now even weaker.
After offering Yulan a few words of comfort, Wuxing stood up and looked at the people below, saying:
“I am the Heavenly Emperor of Heaven. Are you really sure you want to follow such a traitorous minister and seize power? If you really decide to do so, then you are a group that everyone should kill.”
"Have you really thought this through? Are you really prepared to live such an unstable life from now on?"
Upon hearing Wuxing's words, the people inside the Ghost Prime Minister's group exchanged glances, their hearts pounding with anticipation. It seemed Wuxing's words did indeed have some effect.
However, the Ghost Prime Minister remained completely calm. Instead, he spoke slowly and deliberately with a smile, looking at the invisible figure and saying:
"Are you telling the truth? Wuxing, I'm actually a little scared! But it seems like you've forgotten something. I don't know how you could forget something like that."
"So fast?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yaoxie understood what the Ghost Prime Minister was about to say, and thought to himself, "Oh no! It seems that Wuxing is about to choke on his words."
Sure enough, the Ghost Prime Minister spoke, looking at Wuxing, and then said:
"I remember, our Ghost King seems to have killed and injured several elders of your Heavenly Court! And you, the former Heavenly Emperor, have now broken ties with your Heavenly Court because of our Ghost King!"
"In your opinion, given this situation, whose side will your Heavenly Court ultimately help? Will it help the enemy who killed their elder, or the person who helps them kill their enemy?"
Sure enough, after the Ghost Prime Minister spoke, those who were originally preparing to leave his group stood still again, looking at the Formless One above with even greater confidence.
Sure enough, when Wuxing heard this, his face turned pale. What the ghost prime minister said was indeed true.
Given the current situation, the Heavenly Court will not help Yulan no matter what. It would be quite remarkable if they didn't take advantage of her misfortune.
Lin Yaoxie noticed that Wuxing's expression was not good, so he walked over to him and said, "Go and see how Sister Yulan is doing. Don't worry, I'll take care of things here!"
0..oo Requesting flowers.
After hearing Lin Yaoxie's words, Wuxing nodded in relief, then stepped back and helped Yulan up.
Lin Yaoxie paced back and forth above, looking at the people below without speaking, which made the group below somewhat uneasy.
One of them, unable to hold back any longer, continued speaking to Lin Yaoxie:
"What exactly do you want? Let me tell you, everything that happened today was caused by you. Even if you really want to protect them now, it's probably too late!"
"We have a large and powerful force here, while you only have a few of your own. Most of the Ghost King's trusted men have been sent out. Do you really think you have a chance of winning? Don't dream!"
Upon hearing these words, Lin Yaoxie merely smiled faintly and then said:
"Oh? Is that so? Then I'd like to see how you killed us!"
After Lin Yaoxie finished speaking, he used his mental power to instantly grab the person who had just spoken by the neck.
Chapter 264 The Ghost Prime Minister's Choice
Seeing Wuxing suddenly retorted by the Ghost Prime Minister, Lin Yaoxie felt a surge of anger welling up within him. He walked to Wuxing's side, comforted him, and told him to go and take care of Yu-0.
Then he stood in the very center, his eyes fixed on the people below, his gaze cold and sharp, like a knife cutting into the skin, inspiring fear.
Lin Yaoxie looked at the arrogant person who had spoken provocatively, and "957" then gathered his spiritual power and grabbed the man by the throat. Then the man was slowly pulled into the air.
The last person ascended into the sky, looking down at the people below with fear, his eyes filled with endless regret and terror, his whole body trembling slightly.
Lin Yaoxie smiled wickedly at him, his smile sinister and terrifying. Slowly, Lin Yaoxie loosened his grip on his throat, then looked at him and asked:
"What's wrong? Weren't you just arrogantly saying you were going to wipe us all out? It hasn't been that long, and you're already this scared. Where did your arrogance go?"
Once his neck was freed, the man began to gasp for fresh air, listening to Lin Yaoxie's humiliating words without the slightest embarrassment. He simply stared at the Ghost Prime Minister below, pleading with him repeatedly:
"Prime Minister Ghost, you know me. I've always been loyal to you. You...you must save me! Prime Minister Ghost, look at this brat, so arrogant and disrespectful. You must teach him a lesson!"
"Ghost Prime Minister... Ghost... Save... Me..."
Before this man could finish his fawning words, Lin Yaoxie gathered his power again, stared intently at him, and once again gripped his throat tightly.
Then Lin Yaoxie stared intently at the Ghost Prime Minister, then put on a very sinister smile and said to the Ghost Prime Minister:
"Well, after hearing the plea of your loyal subordinate, what do you plan to do? Will you save him? Ghost Prime Minister! Now, it's not just me who wants to see your reaction; everyone else is waiting for your response!"
For a moment, the Ghost Prime Minister panicked. He hadn't expected Lin Yaoxie to threaten him in this way. If he chose not to save this person, he might lose the support of others…
However, if the Ghost Prime Minister chooses to save this person, he will inevitably be hampered by Lin Yaoxie and will be unable to achieve his desired goal.
Therefore, Lin Yaoxie's actions this time were indeed very decisive. No matter what choice the Ghost Prime Minister makes, the initiative will be in Lin Yaoxie's hands.
The Ghost Prime Minister watched Lin Yaoxie warily, then remained silent for a long time. He understood that everyone at the banquet was watching his reaction and awaiting his answer.
However, for the Ghost Prime Minister, 5.4 is an extremely difficult choice! It has been no easy feat for him to get to where he is today, and he would certainly be very unwilling to give up now.
However, he also worried that the forces he had gathered through his own efforts might abandon their loyalty to him due to his momentary hesitation.
Chapter 265 Using One Demon as a Warning to a Hundred
An unusual silence fell over the scene, and where Lin Yaoxie and the Ghost Prime Minister's gazes met, sparks of intense tension flew.
Although Lin Yaoxie still maintained a smile, a closer look would reveal a murderous intent in his eyes.
The same was true of the Ghost Prime Minister. Although the two of them only looked at each other without making a sound, everyone present seemed to feel the glint of swords and the lurking killing intent between them.
But the Ghost Prime Minister was in the most agonizing state of mind at that moment. No matter what, he couldn't bring himself to make the decision to destroy all the schemes he had been working on for so many years.
However, he also felt that his connections with the other allies were too weak. Relying solely on his past experience and his deliberate acts of chivalry to maintain these alliances was simply too unreliable.
The person Lin Yaoxie has captured is a representative of his remaining followers. If he chooses to abandon this person, he is not sure if the remaining people in his group will still be loyal to him.
Looking at the conflicted Ghost Prime Minister, Lin Yaoxie thought to himself, perhaps his decision, whether it looks or sounds like the actions of a villain, but shouldn't he be a villain?
This life-or-death decision he prepared for the Ghost Prime Minister was also to screen out who was the most quintessential villain, the kind who could spout righteousness and morality while committing evil deeds without batting an eye.
Lin Yaoxie was now quite looking forward to seeing if the Ghost Prime Minister would give him a surprise. So, looking at the Ghost Prime Minister's expression, Lin Yaoxie's smile deepened.
The Ghost Prime Minister also noticed Lin Yaoxie's mischievous expression, as if he were waiting to see a good show. Finally, the Ghost Prime Minister couldn't resist and looked at Lin Yaoxie, asking:
"What do you mean by this? Your human race has always been the most eloquent and adept at using intrigue and trickery. Why should I believe you? We're already at a point where we have no choice but to act."
"You're trying to negotiate with me now, making a deal? Here's what we'll do: I can promise you that once we conquer the Realm of Reincarnation and become Ghost Kings, I can spare you and your friend, that girl!"
"So, how do you feel now? I've been more than kind to you! Release the person you're holding. I always keep my word and won't go back on it. Put down the person you're holding..."
"I will spare you, even those who are like that!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yaoxie could no longer contain himself and burst into loud laughter. His laughter seemed to echo throughout the entire Realm of Reincarnation, piercing the dark sky and striking straight into everyone's heart.
After chuckling for a while, Lin Yaoxie smiled, but then, with an extremely cold expression, addressed the Ghost Prime Minister:
"Are you trying to negotiate with me? Your people are in my hands, and you have the audacity to say you'll spare my life! Don't you find yourself ridiculous? What gives you the right to negotiate with me?"
After Lin Yaoxie finished speaking, he smiled, then looked at the ghost messenger in his hand who was still struggling desperately, and said, "He won't save you!"
Chapter 266 Demons and Evils See Through the Ghost Prime Minister
The Ghost Prime Minister originally wanted to use his own words to lead everyone to believe that he actually wanted to save the ghost messenger, which is why he was willing to use his own conditions to get him back.
However, Lin Yaoxie seemed to see through the Ghost Prime Minister's intentions at a glance. He laughed loudly, pointed at him, and then looked at him with disdain, saying:
"You don't want to give up your grand ambitions, which you've been plotting for years, for the sake of an ordinary ghost messenger in my hands. But you dare not speak up, for you fear that if you reveal your true thoughts, all those around you will abandon you!"
"Because your alliance is not unbreakable, and you yourself know that. Therefore, you must use a high-sounding reason to make yourself appear selfless."
.
“You told me you were willing to use the status and power you would gain after your rebellion to spare my life and Hua Rou’s. But you know my personality; I would never allow you to humiliate me in such a way.”
"You probably anticipated that I would fly into a rage and kill this insignificant ghost under my command. This would give you even more and more direct reasons to incite..."
These people have come to avenge the ghost messenger I killed!
"You're quite the schemer. I originally wanted to test who was the real villain between us, but it seems you're the better one! You can be the villain and come up with a perfectly plausible excuse. You're truly impressive!"
