Chapter 749: The Incident of That Year
"But—" Meng Die’s face still showed her dilemma, "Your Highness, Emperor had already issued an order before, and no one is allowed to speak of those matters again."
When Divine Lord almost dissipated back then, in his attempt to save him, Emperor almost turned into a demon. It was an event so dramatic that it felt as if the heavens and earth had changed color. Moreover, Emperor had even drawn Evil Qi into his body, and used a Forbidden Technique just to barely preserve a flicker of his Divine Soul.
She originally had a very negative opinion of Emperor, thinking that he had caused Your Highness’s death. However, after seeing Emperor go almost insane, she realized that when something happened to Your Highness, Emperor was actually the one who was the most heartbroken, and he almost went insane.
The events back then were truly tragic, and Emperor had issued a command that no one under the heavens is allowed to mention that matter ever again.
"If we really should talk about it, I should be considered one of the involved parties!" Zhong Niangyao’s lips curled up in a self-mocking smile, "Or do even you think I have no right to know?"
"No, how could that be?" Meng Die hurriedly spoke, "Your Highness, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but Emperor had commanded that anyone who dares to bring up that matter will not be spared lightly. I am just a Little Immortal, I truly dare not defy the order."
"Don’t worry, he can’t do anything," Zhong Niangyao spoke with a smile, "I am still here, I will definitely not stand idly by and watch you get punished. Just tell me!"
"If you don’t say it, it would mean you hold me, your master, as less important than Yichen."
After hearing Zhong Niangyao’s words, Meng Die became anxious and dared not conceal anything, immediately revealing everything about the past incidents.
In Meng Die’s narration, Zhong Niangyao couldn’t help recalling the bits and pieces that had happened between her and Lu Yichen. There were both sweet memories and painful traces.
