The Wise Sovereign coughed twice, pulling everyone’s thoughts back, and continued to answer Vay’s question: "As for the matter about those Demon God believers you mentioned, they... they should still be around."

The Wise Sovereign’s expression became somewhat serious at this point.

"Since Adanis has tasted the sweetness of pretending to be a Demon God, do you think she will stop now?" The Wise Sovereign asked everyone but didn’t give them a chance to respond, instead stating directly: "No, she won’t. Even if the Demon God believers of the past have mostly perished, as Adanis’s power continues to grow, she has already broken through the shackles of the Underground Aqueduct. Through the Mirror Domain, she can now connect with the outside world."

"As long as there’s a mirror existing externally, she can continue to pretend to be the Demon God to deceive, encourage, and cultivate followers."

"Even if these Demon God believers won’t be as crazily trusting of Adanis as the first batch of believers, whose memories were washed away by the Sea of Void Mirror, the subtle influence and long-term brainwashing will always give rise to devout believers."

"Where are they? I don’t know."

"What does Adanis aim to do by cultivating them? I can guess some things, but that’s not necessarily accurate."

The Wise Sovereign: "Perhaps the true answer is something I still need you all to provide to me."

The Wise Sovereign cannot ask Adanis, nor is it certain that Adanis would respond to him. Thus, Angel and the others became the hope of the Wise Sovereign.

Currently, Angel and the others’ stance is definitively opposed to Adanis, continuing their hostility, which might even cause Adanis to summon those Demon God believers to obstruct them without Angel and the others having to ask deliberately.

This is why the Wise Sovereign mentioned that he may need Angel and the others to provide him with an answer.

After hearing the Wise Sovereign’s reply, everyone realized they needed to reassess Vay’s question. Previously, they thought the question was meaningless, something from ten thousand years ago. But the Wise Sovereign clearly said that Adanis is still cultivating her forces, making Vay’s question not a useless inquiry but one that needs serious attention.

However, while it warrants attention, it doesn’t require too much worry.

If Adanis dares to continue pretending to be a Demon God to deceive followers, this matter can be reported to the Extreme Sect. With the Extreme Sect’s style, any trace from so-called Demon God believers will trigger a swift and comprehensive attack until they can’t recover.

"Do you have any more questions..." The Wise Sovereign’s words paused midway, suddenly: "If you wish to pose questions, you might need to pause for now; the person knowledgeable about the inner workings of Qingkong Poetry Room has arrived."

After speaking, the Wise Sovereign patted his lapel, shifted from relaxing back into the soft sofa to sitting upright, transforming his lazy expression into a serious one.

As the Wise Sovereign "renewed" himself, a slightly naïve and childish voice echoed in the room.

"Sovereign! Lord Sovereign, I’m here!"

Calling "Lord Sovereign" twice, the first time sounded distant and far away, but the next call was much closer to everyone.

Even without further information, the tone gave away a hint of coquettishness.

Like the attachment a younger generation might have towards their elders.

"What are you yelling for? Haven’t I told you many times not to rush in without knocking; learn to knock before entering. Also, try to speak like your two brothers, instead of always being so startled."

The Wise Sovereign said this sternly, with a stern face, clad in authority; contrary to his previous lazy, drowsy demeanor.

Evidently, when confronting this intruder, the Wise Sovereign played the role of an elder, even a stern father.

However, the newcomer completely ignored the Wise Sovereign’s words, still clamoring: "Why are they here? Lord Sovereign, Lord Sovereign, they are the ones I mentioned earlier, those outsiders, not the outsiders from the Merchant Organization!"

The Wise Sovereign: "...I know, you don’t need to repeat."

"But..."

"But nothing," said the Wise Sovereign. "Quiet now, and later I’ll explain to you, or you can ask your second or eldest brother later." This time, the Wise Sovereign showed his stern side, forcing the newcomer to reluctantly keep quiet.

Those present watched this scene unfold, temporarily ignoring the content of their dialogue, instead growing curious about the newcomer’s form and identity.

In the enclosed room, the newcomer didn’t knock but directly entered, moreover making a sound but without showing their form.

The group, filled with doubt, gazed toward the source of the voice.

The source emerged in the end at a place very close to them, almost within reach.

Right on the table in front of them.

The table, originally laden with food, had all disappeared including the plate, leaving only a solitary cup.

At first glance, the cup looked ordinary, filled to the brim with water, but upon closer inspection, there were oddities. The cup, typically about half a foot high, should easily reveal its bottom, however, it now seemed as deep and dark as an unfathomable Abyss of Shadow.

Previously, the source of the voice disappeared into the cup.

"The smell is... Cyclops Family." The Black Earl murmured.

Did someone from the Cyclops Family arrive? With a bit of thinking, everyone quickly guessed the newcomer’s identity.

The Cyclops Family member present could be none other than Big Treasure, Second Treasure, or Little Treasure, with You Nu also counted. Having met Big Treasure, Second Treasure, and You Nu face-to-face before, there was no doubt that the visitor now was the only one not encountered in a true sense, the Cyclops Little Treasure.

As the Black Earl’s words fell, the surface of the water cup where ripples danced revealed a face.

The face wasn’t realistic, dominated by a large cyclopean eye occupying half the space, with remaining parts consisting of small mouth, small ears, and a tiny nose. Particularly the nose, which was nothing more than a tiny dark hole.

It bore a resemblance to children’s art.

Not scary at all, rather somewhat endearing.

"Hey, hey, outsider, state your intentions, or my brother will swallow you all!"

Freshly rebuffed by the Wise Sovereign, the Cyclops Little Treasure turned directly towards Angel and his group, although targeting the wrong person. His cyclopean eye glared at... Black Earl.

Cyclops Little Treasure spoke only a few words before being categorized by the Black Earl as a brat. Faced with the brat’s insolent questions, Black Earl didn’t even bother to respond.

Even though Black Earl remained silent, Dox found the Cyclops Little Treasure quite interesting.

"So you’re Cyclops Little Treasure?" Dox asked with a smile, leaning in.

Cyclops Little Treasure looked at Dox warily, not answering but posing a question in return: "Who are you?"

Dox replied: "Who I am doesn’t matter to you, does it?"

The Little One-eyed Treasure thought about it and realized that what this human said was right. These people were not important to him at all, so why should he care about them? It would be better to think about how to continue complaining when the Merciful Mother returns, so she can understand his resolute will.

With this thought, the imposing manner he had when questioning the Black Earl vanished instantly. The water surface that was rippling with gentle waves returned to calmness.

Seeing this scene, everyone was a bit speechless. As expected, he was just a little kid, changing moods so quickly.

Dox continued with a cheerful smile, "But we are not important, while you are very important. You agree with this, right?"

The Little One-eyed Treasure snorted proudly, "Of course."

"So, you should shout out your name loudly, and let everyone present know."

The Little One-eyed Treasure was stunned for a moment, then said, "Okay!"

"Are you the Little One-eyed Treasure?"

The Little One-eyed Treasure shouted loudly this time, "That’s right, I am the Little One-eyed Treasure!"

"Are you the Little One-eyed Treasure, most loved by You Nu?"

The Little One-eyed Treasure’s voice grew even louder, "Of course, I am my mother’s most beloved!"

"Are you the Little One-eyed Treasure who gave the Wise Sovereign the pseudonym ’Blue Fatty’?"

The Little One-eyed Treasure didn’t suspect anything and continued shouting, "Yes! I’m the one who gave the Sovereign the... Blue Fatty..."

Halfway through his words, the Little One-eyed Treasure suddenly realized something, and his voice grew quieter until it disappeared completely.

When the Little One-eyed Treasure’s voice vanished, the air at the scene became somewhat tense, and the surroundings were so quiet that you could almost hear everyone’s breathing.

The Little One-eyed Treasure stealthily glanced in the direction of the Wise Sovereign.

He saw the Wise Sovereign looking at him coldly, and the Little One-eyed Treasure’s composure broke instantly, "Sovereign Sir, it’s not me, it’s, it’s..."

The Little One-eyed Treasure’s nostrils flared, looking all aggrieved.

The Wise Sovereign: "Shut up, I’ll deal with you later. Also, you’re not allowed to cry or run. You can leave only when I say so."

After he finished speaking, the Wise Sovereign raised his gaze and looked at Dox.

There was no question that Dox brought this matter up on purpose.

Previously, Dox had noticed that the Wise Sovereign cared a lot about his pseudonym, explaining it to them intentionally or unintentionally. Now, Dox had torn open this old wound again, and naturally, the Wise Sovereign was a bit annoyed.

However, Dox looked nonchalant, and facing the Wise Sovereign’s cold expression, he just used an exaggerated tone to "talk to himself", "So the Sovereign’s pseudonym really was given by the Little One-eyed Treasure!"

Upon hearing Dox’s words, the Wise Sovereign was no longer just annoyed but felt stifled with anger.

The Wise Sovereign had "casually" explained many times before, just to tell them: the pseudonym ’Blue Fatty’ wasn’t chosen by me, but was the result of the Little One-eyed Treasure’s ’good deed’.

However, the Wise Sovereign knew he couldn’t just say it without proof, so he had to pretend not to care.

Now, Dox’s words, from another angle, were practically vindicating the Wise Sovereign. Still... why did the Wise Sovereign feel even more repressed rather than pleased?

The reason lay in Dox’s attitude.

Dox clearly believed what the Wise Sovereign said, yet he just had to bring up the matter in front of Little Treasure.

Under the pretext of vindicating, it was actually intentional.

And the Wise Sovereign couldn’t get angry because Dox’s intent was blatant, but the outcome indeed gave him some vindication, which left him with no choice but to swallow his anger.

Moreover, if the Wise Sovereign, who had previously acted indifferent, showed that he cared now, wouldn’t that ruin the act?

The Wise Sovereign closed his eyes, gently exhaled, and by the time he opened them again, he was calm, as if the previous incident had never occurred.

"The Little One-eyed Treasure is much loved by You Nu, and therefore, You Nu never shies away from its questions," the Wise Sovereign spoke calmly, "And I’ve mentioned before, You Nu is highly favored by the Goddess, frequently making visits through the Mirror to see the Goddess. Although its real body hasn’t entered the Qingkong Poetry Room, it has seen the inside through reflections."

"Once, out of curiosity, Little Treasure asked You Nu about the Qingkong Poetry Room, and You Nu did not keep any secrets, informing him of the situation. So if you have any questions, you can direct them to him."

Black Earl: "Then why not ask you directly?"

Wise Sovereign: "There’s an agreement between me and her not to inquire about the internal affairs of the Qingkong Poetry Room, even if it’s learned from Little Treasure. So I genuinely don’t know what Little Treasure learned from You Nu."

After a pause, the Wise Sovereign continued, "Therefore, when you ask Little Treasure later, I will also actively step aside. After the questioning, I will not ask you about what Little Treasure talked with you, and you shouldn’t ask me if you have doubts."

The Wise Sovereign had an agreement with Adanis, but Angel and the others were not bound by it, so they could learn through Little Treasure, while the Wise Sovereign could not.

This was also why the Wise Sovereign brought Little Treasure here deliberately.

After speaking, the Wise Sovereign glanced at Little Treasure, "These people will ask you questions later related to the inside of the Qingkong Poetry Room, and I hope you will answer truthfully. If they raise questions unrelated to the Qingkong Poetry Room, you may ask Second Treasure, and if Second Treasure agrees you answer, you may do so."

"Second Treasure?" Upon hearing the Wise Sovereign, the crowd questioned in confusion, "Is the Little One-eyed Second Treasure also here?"

The Wise Sovereign shook his head, "Second Treasure isn’t here. But Little Treasure has his own way to contact Second Treasure."

This was actually a form of special ability belonging to Little Treasure.

He could contact Big Treasure and Second Treasure in real time, and because of this ability, Little Treasure loved to bother his two brothers whenever he could.

The Big One-eyed Treasure doted on Little Treasure, almost to the point of spoiling, so when Little Treasure contacted him, he would definitely respond. Little Treasure also enjoyed sticking to Big Treasure, and when Angel and the others first saw the doghole in the wall, it was actually a result of Big Treasure and Little Treasure overlapping, not just Big Treasure alone.

Second Treasure also cared for Little Treasure, but his affection was more like that of a strict father. Second Treasure didn’t fall for Little Treasure’s charm and mostly engaged in relentless education.

Faced with Little Treasure’s antics, Second Treasure would response with selective rationality.

Because of this, Little Treasure often went to You Nu to complain about Second Treasure. And the reasons for the complaints were almost always the same: Second Treasure ignores him, Second Treasure is mean to him, Second Treasure doesn’t play with him, and so on.

Before the Wise Sovereign brought Little Treasure to the hall, Little Treasure was actually still in the midst of complaining...
