Chapter 785 The last straw

"The shadow of Yuan Yan?"

The Demon Sect looked at the secret note in his hand, and he raised his head with infinite emotion. The secret note that was passed from Dangxiang to his hand at the fastest speed turned into ashes in his hand the moment his eyes left.

Helan Black Cloud stood behind him with his head hanging down, and she understood the Demon Sect’s mood at this time.

Her emotions are even more complicated than those of the Demon Sect.

Many years before the Northern Wei moved its capital, the Northern Wei emperor had fully realized the importance of a quick and reliable transmission of military information. At that time, the organization of the Privy Council, which the Northern Wei emperor controlled military information, was already very strict.

As for the shadows of Yuan Yan and Yuan Yan who were later merged with the Privy Council, the two actually had nothing to do with each other.

In order to ensure their safety, the top powerful people in the Northern Wei Dynasty have had the habit of cultivating their own substitutes since many years ago. In many occasions where they do not have to attend themselves, or in some very dangerous occasions, these powerful people often hide in the dark, but instead let their substitutes take their place.

In the eyes of many Northern Wei powerful people, Yuan Yan was just a wild child picked up from outside, but the Northern Wei emperor and the empress dowager seemed to have seen the uniqueness of her since then, and still selected her shadow for her according to the highest specifications of the Northern Wei royal family.

The facts proved that the Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the Empress Dowager were right.

Whether it was Yuan Yan or the shadow of Yuan Yan, they quickly showed amazing strength after the Northern Wei moved the capital, so that the Empress Dowager of the Northern Wei handed over the entire Privy Council to Yuan Yan's hands, and Yuan Yan and her shadow did not disappoint her. In the next few years, they quickly established a complete organization for military information collection and transmission in the Southern Dynasties, just like the projection of the Northern Wei Privy Council in the Southern Dynasties.

In the eyes of many Northern Wei people, Yuan Yan's shadow is even more terrifying than Yuan Yan, especially those Northern Wei powerful people who knew the process of selecting shadows of the royal family. They even understand what kind of cruel selection the shadow of Yuan Yan passed to finally become Yuan Yan's shadow.

But those people will not know about Demon Sect and Helan Heiyun.

Because some of the selection of shadows of the Northern Wei royal family were originally from the Demon Sect, and Helan Heiyun was once one of the candidates for the shadow of Yuanyan, or more accurately, she was the shadow that was eliminated.

In the selection process of the Northern Wei royal family, the fate of the eliminated shadow was death.

But she survived because of the Demon Sect.

Even she didn't know who Yuan Yan's shadow was in the end, and even the Demon Sect didn't know. However, who would have thought that Yuan Yan's shadow was not in the Northern Wei Dynasty, but would have been next to Lin Yi, whom they attached great importance to.

"She is the winner, you are the loser of that year."

The Demon Sect felt her complicated emotions at this moment. He slowly turned his head, looked at her calmly, and said, "But in dealing with these things, I don't want you to do things with the emotions you want to prove. Any emotion you shouldn't have will lead to errors."

Helan Heiyun nodded and said, "I understand."

"Sometimes, success and failure do not mean advantages and disadvantages, they only depend on the rules, and rules are not absolutely fair. What we want to be is the existence of setting rules and breaking rules."

The Demon Sect smiled faintly, "According to the Empress Dowager's preferences and wishes, that person became the shadow of Yuan Yan, but I have different standards for selecting people, so among those people, I chose you. Of course, you will not be inferior to that shadow."

Helan Heiyun nodded again and said, "I understand, there is no need to say so much."

Almost no one dared to say this to the Demon Sect, and no one would dislike the Demon Sect for talking too much. However, when the Demon Sect heard her words, she laughed instead.

"It should be when I went to Meishan that she got together with this young general from the Southern Dynasty."

The Demon Sect thought seriously and said in some respect: "Lin Yi was just an unknown man with a low cultivation level at that time, and I couldn't even see him at all, so I found some young people in Meishan, but he was not in my sight. At that time, I chose Lin Yi as my partner in the Southern Dynasties. Yuan Yan is indeed worthy of respect."

The complex emotions in Helan Heiyun's eyes had completely disappeared. She thought it was nonsense whether Yuan Yan deserved respect. For her, Yuan Yan has always been the most difficult opponent. She thought for a while and said, "I will be valued by Yuan Yan at that time, and even sent her shadow to him..."

Speaking of this, she paused and then said, "And even Chen Baowan and Xiao Shufei have an unusual relationship with him, and Lin Yi is indeed unusual."

The Demon Sect was silent for a moment and said, "It was my negligence."

Helan Heiyun glanced at him and said in an extremely simple and straightforward manner: "Do you want to kill Yuan Yan?"

"The woman beside Lin Yi is the shadow of Yuan Yan, but for the old woman in the Northern Wei Palace, Yuan Yan is her shadow, her substitute, and her incarnation of her walking in the Northern Wei Dynasty."

The Demon Sect shook his head sarcastically and said, "If I kill Yuan Yan directly, it seems that there is no difference between her and killing her directly. She will break with me at all costs. I can't bear such anger."

The Helan black clouds lowered their heads slightly, expressing their agreement.

The Demon Sect turned his head, looked at Liuyun in the sky, and said lightly: "Yuan Yan is the most difficult to deal with, just like her, because it lies in their identity, but as long as they cut off all their tentacles, they can't stir up much waves."

Helan Heiyun understood what she should do, but she understood that the Demon Sect had something to say, so she still listened quietly.

"There will not be suddenly disappeared in the world for no reason. There are some outsiders in the newly built temple of the Northern Wei Dynasty. If I was not wrong, those people might have come from the Southern Dynasty." The Demon Sect said calmly: "Those people must also die."

Helan Heiyun's expression did not change at all, but he just nodded again.

However, a gratified smile appeared on the Demon Sect's face and said, "Have you ever heard of the last straw that broke the camel's back?"

Helan Heiyun said: "I've heard it."

"Between me and Jiange, the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty could not make any choice, but the move Yuan Yan arranged by Lin Yi would become the last straw that broke the camel's back." The Demon Sect said: "With the character of the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty, he could not tolerate a general like Lin Yi and secretly communicated with His Highness the Princess of the Northern Wei."

"So let Ah Chaizhun not do anything, and everything he wants will satisfy him."
