Chapter 104.5 Each And Everyone’s Ulterior Motives
Sang Yuanyuan recalled the beautiful and transparent light body that her divine consciousness saw inside the cauldron. It is suspended in the middle of the giant cauldron. As long as the cauldron doesn’t fall over, the Underworld Demons won’t be able to touch it or reach it.
If the cauldron falls over… Sang Yuanyuan takes a deep breath.
This cauldron is the underground foundation of the eighteen states in the Cloud Realm. If the cauldron falls over, the entire continent will collapse and fall to the abyss.
A flash of light flashed in her mind: “So, it was Jiang First who deliberately leaked the news to the King of Qin state and tricked him into digging the underground city! Once the underground of Qin state collapses, the entire great wall in the whole territory will also collapse. At that time, the black iron and long iron surrounding the entire Cloud Realm will become like a twisted chain, dragging the entire ground surface starting from the Qin state to collapse into the abyss!”
“Smart.” You Wuming said, “The scale of Qin state’s underground city is huge. As long as countless black iron chains are used to connect the cauldron’s leg at the bottom of Ji state with the underground city in Qin state, then, when Qin state falls into the dark abyss, it will definitely be able to tilt that cauldron.”
Sang Yuanyuan’s heart froze: “So, has Huangfu Xiong filled that hole?”
“Yeah.” You Wuming smiled proudly, “What did I say before, Little Mulberry? You and I are also the saints that save the world.”
Sang Yuanyuan: “…”
“Wait.” Sang Yuanyuan noticed that something was wrong. “Then, what is Jiang First’s plan?”
You Wuming pulls out a map from his arms and points to the south of the map.
“Look, Mulberry. When the giant cauldron collapses to the north and the Great Wall sweeps across the sky, this area is actually safe.” His finger pointed to Sang state in the West and drew a line horizontally, passing through the three states of Jiang, Zhao and Little Jiang, to Dong state.
“As soon as the giant cauldron fell, the thing that the Underworld Demons wanted will leave the Cloud Realm, and they will never come back again. After that, the remaining half of the Cloud Realm will become a peaceful and happy nest.” The corner of You Wuming’s lips evoked a sneer, “Using half of the territory, to exchange for the stability and peace in this world. This is also the reason why the Jiang clan keep plotting the Sang state. Under the new set up of Cloud Realm, the Sang state which is safe, has a good environment and is rich in resources, is the most suitable one to be the new Imperial Capital.”

Sang Yuanyuan’s scalp tingles from hearing that.
If it wasn’t for her and You Wuming to break the conspiracy chain one by one, everything would probably move forward steadily according to their plan. Han Shaoling and Meng Wuyou have always relied on the so-called ‘power of destiny’, and if they become addicted to that drug-like thing for a long time, they will only become puppets of the Temple of Heaven.
The plan of ‘destroying half the city’ will surely succeed!
Sang Yuanyuan was very shocked. She sorted out her thoughts silently before saying: “So, they each have their own goals. Emperor Yun is for his own immortality, while the Jiang clan and the Underworld Demon King is for overthrowing the cauldron. Yet, in the original unaltered ‘future’, they all failed, right? “
Each of the three parties harbored their own ulterior motives, and the abacus was played so loudly, but the future shown by the Heavenly Divination Mirror was still the ending of the entire world’s annihilation. No one was satisfied with this result, so they joined forces and used the Heavenly Divination Mirror to change the future.
You Wuming said: “Yes. They keep deducing with the Heavenly Divination Mirror time and again, and it was not until more than twenty years ago that a first-line of the turning point was seen.”
That is, after Jiang Yanji and Sang Yuanyuan were thrown into another world, the ‘future’ recorded in the Heavenly Divination Mirror is precisely the version of the ‘future’ that Sang Yuanyuan read in the ‘The Favorite Bed in Han Palace: The Evil King’s Ninety-Ninth Times Runaway Wife’.
Only that version of the future can satisfy the Underworld Demon King, Emperor Yun and Jiang First.
In that ‘future’, when Han Shaoling and Meng Wuyou entered Tiandu, Emperor Yun would not die at the hands of the Yun clan’s descendant, and the Underworld Demon King and Jiang First could successfully overthrow the giant cauldron. Each and everyone of them could get the results they wanted.
“In that future, there is no you and me.” Sang Yuanyuan said with a light voice, “The key to changing all of this, is you and me.”
Waiting for update? Maybe try reading my other translated story? Thank you!
