Imperial Treasure-Chapter 944 - 569: Who Is the Empress? (Part 2)

But there was no response.

Sui Yi was immersed in his own world, not turning his head at all.

Uh... this... the plot’s direction seems off.

With the atmosphere so off, it’s my time to shine!

"Only a few people here have unclear identities, just two I suppose."

Frank had already been "disliked" by the group once, so logically he shouldn’t jump out again, but he glanced at Sui Yi, rolled his eyes, and decided to speak up again.

So he redirected the attention to two people in an instant.

The old man and the middle-aged man,

Respecting the elderly and caring for the young are fine virtues, but an S-class elder... that’s a whole different level, like the old demon of Black Mountain.

Everyone looked at the old woman and the two with her.

The old woman smiled slightly, looking at Natasha: "Mr. Frank noticing an old lady like me is quite an honor."

"Having an S-class master speak to me like this, I should be the one feeling flattered," Frank said in Chinese, quite clumsily.

The middle-aged man glanced at Frank and said lightly, "Getting an S-class Director like Old Lady Ming from the Imperial Guards involved, Mr. Frank, you must have quite some influence."

There was a hint of irony.

Oh~ so my research has made the Imperial Guards dispatch two S-class Directors?

Frank was taken aback, instinctively looking at Meng Fang.

The latter kept a straight face, coldly staring at the middle-aged man: "I suppose, sir, that you are the difficult one, being an S-class master from The Gate, coming all the way from New York to our China."

"It’s interesting you say that. Can’t you see that The Gate has never given up on China, even though your Imperial Guards’ performance has greatly disappointed us at times?"

The Gate, a super organization on a global scale, seems to have unspeakable secrets with the Imperial Guards.

It always feels like they’re in a state of having been passionately in love but then broke up and can never be friends again.

The tension in the air was palpable.

Suddenly, Sui Yi turned his face and asked someone: "Who is the Empress?"

Huh? 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

The sudden question left people a bit confused,

The person who was asked had been quiet and silent all along, suddenly being questioned, she looked at Sui Yi and returned a faint smile: "A hacker."

Hacker?

Sui Yi frowned, looking at Gu Sansi.

Meng Fang glanced at the two and said: "The Empress refers to another top hacker online. According to the evaluation in the hacker community, it’s the Black Emperor and the Empress who are considered the best. This time, it was also the Empress who first found the Black Emperor’s location."

"Sounds like you’re saying the Empress is one of your Chinese people," Stanton looked at several of the Imperial Guards.

There was a sense of disbelief.

The Imperial Guards sneered at these foreigners, who needs their approval anyway?

"Found? I really hope you can catch him soon and ask him what exactly is going on. Of course, this matter is undoubtedly a continuation of Hellfire, and now it’s a mess outside. I feel like I’m going to become famous," Pierre said with a fake smile.

"Can’t find him... The Forbidden Forest people are right by his side. It’s only because he was manipulated that he did such things."

"How do you know!" Pierre and the others were unclear about Gu Sansi’s identity, and since she didn’t seem to be part of the Imperial Guards, they didn’t trust her.

Gu Sansi’s voice was eerie, with her fingers tapping one end of the chair, she looked at everyone: "Because I am that hacker."

Pierre and the others: "..."

A hacker who’s both devastatingly beautiful and extremely graceful?

This just shattered their previous perception of hackers, didn’t it?

Shouldn’t it be the ultimate otaku exuding nerd vibes?

Sui Yi also didn’t expect Gu Sansi to be the famous "Empress" online, but that was no longer important.

"Is there anything else?"

As Sui Yi said this, Meng Fang and the others started feeling uneasy.

Seems we haven’t really begun, have we?

Regarding the previous question...

The young man tried to stop, but someone prevented him.

Because the old lady stood up.

Leaning on a cane.

"Miss Xie, regarding you, our Imperial Guards have had some understanding before, and we are very grateful for your several assists. This time, the matter involves a great scope. To say it’s severe is very severe, to say it’s not is not. It’s beyond any individual’s ability to change, and it’s unfortunate to trouble you again."

Too polite, way too polite.

So polite that even Director Meng Fang was somewhat surprised, but Gu Sansi seemed to have anticipated it, showing no special reaction.

Sui Yi halted, looking at the old man, and said: "I know what you want to know."

"I... should be considered a Witch. The previous ones were indeed Black Wizards, although the paths diverged, there indeed are some connections."

"But I don’t want to care."

"At least not right now."

Sui Yi walked to the door, placed his hand on the handle, paused, and turned to the old man: "You carry the aura of Ming Lanyuan’s Inner Strength on you, I would assume you are her elder. Naturally, I should inform you."

"That stone is extremely dangerous, and, it’s not the only piece. There should be many pieces."

"If we dare to speculate further, perhaps the true purpose of the Forbidden Forest is about them."

"And not the apparent threat that seems perilous but doesn’t really matter."

Finished speaking, she nodded slightly to Old Lady Ming, opened the door, and left.

Natasha raised an eyebrow and followed Sui Yi out.

This time, she entirely played the wallflower role, partly not wanting to get involved in China’s internal affairs, and partly because her health was not well. No need to show off; this wasn’t the United Kingdom’s home turf.

--Princess Natasha was indeed wise.

Not many noticed the departure of the radiant presence that was Natasha, Old Lady Ming seemed thoughtful, Meng Fang’s expression was cold, both looking at someone.

Just as she left, Gu Sansi straightened, slightly smiling: "The last sentence she said to the Wizard: The power of the Eye of the God is completely restrained by the Witch, I don’t understand why you worship it as a deity."
