Who Stole My Eggs?

What followed was a series of murders committed by Yuzhao, so cruel that even Xie Zuo couldn’t bear to look at them.

Was this the so-called immortal? The cruelty of the methods and the viciousness of the intentions were truly breathtaking. Just to compete for the position of a southern emperor?

Xie Zuo suddenly understood that Huo Yao was now fulfilling his duty as the Great Deity of Thunder – execution.

This was the first time Xie Zuo had seen Huo Yao doing executed. Lao Luo said that before execution, the Great Thunder Deity usually summarized and drew portraits of the person being executed, and made sure that they died clearly. If the merit outweighed the fault, after the thunder punishment, the executioner’s cultivation would be improved to a higher level; otherwise, he would be wiped out on the spot.

Yuzhao’s soul reunited and turned into a human form. He lowered his head, unable to face Princess Lin.

The emperor of the Southern Kingdom had countless messengers, the Wind Messenger was just the most inconspicuous one, but he was the most ambitious one. He refused to accept it. He was obviously very strong, so why was he not qualified to run as the new emperor of the Southern Kingdom?

After much deliberation, he found that only Rain Deity Lin was the least scheming and the easiest to talk. Although Rain Deity Lin had a respected position, he was the most approachable one. When Rain Deity Lin was preparing to descend, he got him drunk, secretly hid in his sleeves, and went down to the lower realm with him.

He never expected that because they were born together as a twin, the Wind Messenger would be raised as a girl and live a life of neither boy nor girl all his life!

This made the Wind Messenger angry, so he secretly exchanged his and Rain Deity Lin’s ribbons. However, the guilt for it had been tormenting him. While he loved Princess Lin, he couldn’t help but hate him. Why was he not as lucky as Rain Deity Lin?

By now, it was too late…

.

Huo Yao raised his right hand, and suddenly the sky was filled with strong winds and thunder. His hand fell gently, and in an instant, thick thunder and lightning swooped down like a swimming dragon, hitting Yuzhao’s soul.

Yuzhao didn’t even have time to look at Princess Lin again before he was already gone. The punishment made the Wind Messenger completely disappear from the world.

A wisp of black shadow suddenly jumped out from Yuzhao’s body and fled into the dark night.

Xie Zuo complained to Huo Yao: “Why didn’t you kill him too?”

Huo Yao had to explain: “I couldn’t use thunder punishment until the day when the evildoers’ fate was done.”

Mengzhao looked at the direction in which the Black Cloud Messenger escaped, “It sounds like you are all the deities descended to the earth. Since you have come to the mortal world, you should follow the rules of our mortal world.”

Mengzhao took out the tiger talisman he had been hiding close to his body and handed it to Xie Zuo, “Yunzhao, Mengzhao’s country has millions of people. The army will be at your disposal from now on. I have only one request, leave Wuzhao to me.”

“Okay!”

.

Three days later, news came from the Yuzhao Palace that Princess Lin fell ill and died suddenly. This kind of news did not cause too much controversy. After all, she was married before her death, and the people of Yuzhao had experienced too much death and pain and were already numb.

Yuzhao was buried as Princess Lin, and Rain Deity Lin personally held his coffin.

Rain Deity Lin became the leader of the Yuzhao Kingdom. He was exactly the same as Yuzhao and did not arouse any suspicion for the time being. Just like that, he and Yuzhao were exchanged together again without anyone noticing.

Xie Zuo had experienced all this personally, and he could only sigh that the way of heaven reincarnation and retribution was really good. Yuzhao tried his best to replace Rain Deity Lin, but Rain Deity Lin finally returned to his original position.

However, as Rain Deity Lin became the leader of a country, he could not return to Yunzhao with Xie Zuo and the others. When they parted, Rain Deity Lin burst into tears and it rained heavily throughout Yuzhao.

Xie Zuo couldn’t laugh or cry, and advised him to stop crying quickly, otherwise, the whole country would be flooded. On the way back, Xie Zuo asked Huo Yao: “Did you guess Xiao Lin’s identity when he cried?”

Xie Zuo closed his eyes and rested his mind. After a while, he whispered: “The way you executed is quite scary, much fiercer than when you hacked me.”

Huo Yao gently stroked his hair, “Get some sleep. I will always be you.”

.

Two years later, Rain Deity Lin completely stabilized the situation in Yuzhao Kingdom, and with the consent of the ministers, he officially led the subordinate countries to submit to Yunzhao Kingdom.

At the same time, Wuzhao and Mengzhao officially turned against each other, and the two countries changed from friendly neighbors to unrelenting enemies.

Xie Zuo and Huo Yao led the Yunzhao Kingdom’s army and joined forces with the Mengzhao Kingdom to completely defeat the Wuzhao Kingdom’s army.

Wuzhao had refused to surrender, so Mengzhao went to the palace alone to persuade him to surrender. Later, no one knew what they talked about. They only knew that the palace doors were closed that night and a fire broke out in the palace. Wuzhao and Mengzhao both died in the fire.

When the fire burst into the sky, Xie Zuo wanted to save people but was stopped by Huo Yao, “It’s too late.”

Xie Zuo sighed sadly, “Why didn’t you kill the the Black Cloud Messenger?”

“Wuzhao has great merits, he and the Black Cloud Messenger shares the same soul, I can’t touch him.”

At this point, the Southern Kingdom, which had been divided and warred for thousands of years, was finally unified in form. Xie Zuo also followed the minister’s advice and officially changed the country’s name to Southern Country in January of the following year. However, a bigger crisis was spreading in the Southern Country.
