Heavenly King Yuan Shi's progress in the state of mind could not keep up with Old Devil Ji's advancement in manipulating people's spirits.
However, Old Devil Ji had his own explanation.
It was all Jian Gongyou's vile scheme, nothing to do with him.
If Father truly erupted in rage once he went out, Jian Gongyou would be the scapegoat for Father's anger.
After all, Jian Gongyou's soul imprint was within the Ten Thousand People Umbrella. If need be, they could simply ask Empress Nuwa to create a clay figurine for Jian Gongyou in advance.
It was because there was someone to take the blame that Ji Changsheng dared to make his move.
Yet Heavenly King Yuan Shi was still unaware of Jian Gongyou's existence.
If not for the Sect Hierarch and Empress Nuwa holding him back, he would have already exploded in anger.
"That poem..."
The Sect Hierarch quickly said, "Second brother, rest assured, only the Goddess and I know about it."
