Chapter 157: Stealing from the Emperor? Call upon the 12 gods!_2

...

After a short while.

In a room at the inn.

Yibai was gathered with Hui Shu, the Rabbit Demon.

Yibai shared everything he saw at the State Preceptor's residence and the background of the State Preceptor, including his intentions, with Hui Shu and the Rabbit Demon.

Hui Shu and the Rabbit Demon were greatly shocked upon hearing this.

"Are the two of you aware of the State Preceptor's purpose in performing good deeds?"

Yibai sat on the edge of the bed and asked aloud.

"True Dragon, I reckon the State Preceptor seeks to fish in troubled waters, continuously doing good deeds to accumulate his own fame, weakening the Emperor, thus allowing the spirit of humanity to no longer revere the Emperor. Eventually, he aims to usurp the Emperor's mantle," Hui Shu stated his guess from beside the window.

"So, has this State Preceptor succeeded?"

The Rabbit Demon, sitting beside Yibai, asked.
