Chapter 3146: Chapter 109: Mom! I Suspect I’m the Reincarnation of the Immortal Emperor

...

However, this confusion was only fleeting.

Very quickly, Yun Yuhe snapped back to reality and continued to grab Wang Youyue and give him a good beating, all the while scolding him: ”You little dog, your tricks against me are getting fresher, now you’re even coming up with such nonsense?”

This beating directly knocked Wang Youyue out of his reminiscing.

As soon as his consciousness returned to reality, Wang Youyue couldn’t be bothered to sort his thoughts and immediately started yelping in pain: ”Mom, really, it’s true, I’m not just talking nonsense. Ow ow ow, Mom, I really suspect I’m the reincarnation of the Immortal Emperor.”

”Get lost! Do you think your old mother is stupid? Do you think you can just act out a scene and I’ll believe you?”

”I really feel like I am...”

”Even if you really are, so what? Being the reincarnation of the Immortal Emperor means you can lie flat? Means you can indulge in gaming? Do you think your mother can’t beat you?”

”...”

Miserable~ So miserable~

Beside them, Wang Youxuan watched on, unable to bear the sight, covering his eyes.

Fortunately, he’s been mediocre in his performance, so his mother, Yin Lingzhu’s temper wasn’t as explosive.

On the other side, Wang Youyue, who had been thoroughly beaten, still couldn’t escape his fate, dragged off by Yun Yuhe like a chick all the way to the military camp.

...

At the same time.

Luojing.

Dingyin Divine Palace.

Provincy Office.

The large divine timber desk, with a patched seam, remained in its original position, but the pile of memos stacked like a small mountain was noticeably reduced, and the Saint Kings and ministers, who used to gather frequently in the Provincy Office, had now dispersed.

Behind the desk, after handling a batch of memos, the Cangping God Emperor casually picked up a cup of warmed tea and took a sip, feeling a comforting sensation spread throughout his body.

Recently, the frontline reports of victories have been coming in incessantly, putting him in a very good mood.

After a few sips of Immortal Tea, the Cangping God Emperor took out the previous victory reports and secret memos to appreciate them, his expression inevitably somewhat smug: ”The boy Rich ultimately did not fail my trust and guidance, a series of operations executed quite beautifully.”

”Otherwise, wouldn’t everyone say His Majesty has an eye for talent?” Old Tan laughed nearby, ”Previously Lici and Yuxuan were both unearthed and entrusted with significant tasks by His Majesty from obscurity, each achieving outstanding Merit Points results. If His Majesty spotted talent once, it could be said to be luck, but consistently discerning talent so accurately, it’s evident how keen His Majesty’s vision is.”

”Old Tan, we must stay humble, stay humble. I hear Hengqi has been quite impressive lately, willingly taking risks to guard Lici as she executes her plans; indeed, worthy of being my bloodline descendant.” The Cangping God Emperor leisurely savored his tea, speaking humbly yet glancing occasionally at the black-robed official seated at the imperial designated seat beside him.

He appeared somewhat advanced in age, his black official robe meticulously arranged, maintaining a perfect posture even in the face of the Cangping God Emperor. His slender physique, combined with his austere appearance, made him seem even more rigid and difficult to approach.

This official was none other than Historian Taisi Wenbo.

However, at this moment, Taisi Wenbo was half-closing his eyes, as if completely ignoring the conversation of the two.

He had seen such scenes often lately; His Majesty’s frequent self-praise had nearly formed calluses in his ears.

Seeing that Taisi Wenbo was not playing along, the Cangping God Emperor casually said again: ”Old Tan, what do you think historians will say about me facing the joint attack from four Great Commanders of the Demonic Clan this time, yet decisively commanding widespread actions to resolve them one by one?”

”Although Your Majesty’s achievements this time might not match those of the Shitian Divine Emperor, they should rank among the top three among past Divine Emperors.” Old Tan placated the emperor with a smile.

”Nonsense.” The Cangping God Emperor promptly frowned, gravely admonishing Old Tan, ”Every ancestor from the Xuanyuan family was an unrivaled god of might; how could I, a junior, possibly compare with our ancestors? My greatest wish in life is that our East Xia remains peaceful, able to safeguard the empire handed down by our Old Ancestor. Just accomplishing these two objectives would bring me great comfort.”

Upon hearing this, Historian Taisi Wenbo finally opened his nearly closed eyes, and then he quickly took out a small book to jot down a few notes.

The Cangping God Emperor, craning his neck, seemed eager to see what he had written.

”Ahem ahem!”

Taisi Wenbo, seeming ready for this, quickly closed his notebook upon finishing his notes, then stood up to take his leave: ”If there’s nothing urgent, Your Majesty, I shall take my leave.”

”Farewell, dear Taisi.”

The Cangping God Emperor smiled amiably.

Once Taisi Wenbo had truly left, the Cangping God Emperor dropped his pretense of a smile, grumbling irritatedly: ”That old rascal Wenbo, impervious to all cajoling, would it kill him to let me take a peek?”

The custom of the Dongxia Divine Dynasty is such that the historian responsible for recording history holds significant power; many Divine Emperors do not ever see their own historical records until their demise.

This serves as both a spur and a warning to the Divine Emperors that if they do not perform their duties properly and engage in misconduct, they cannot blame anyone for unfavorable historical evaluations after their death.

After all, at the level of a Divine Emperor, few constraints remain that can curtail them—should they wish to slack off, very few people could genuinely hold them accountable.

Fortunately, at the level of a Divine Emperor, there remains little to pursue in their lifetime, thus whether their legacy allows them to endure in history is quite significant.
