Returning from the abyss

Chapter 1356: Stab the King

In his blurred consciousness, Han Younian still retained a trace of clarity.

He knew that he had fallen into a hopeless situation. The reason was that he had underestimated the difficulty of the distribution center mission. The dangers in the fifth-level scene were just as hard to guard against.

Fortunately, his abnormality should at least have been noticed by Lu Ning. With Lu Ning's keen sense, she should not have failed to notice that something was wrong with his condition.

There was a noise in his mind, almost drowning him. Death was happening before his eyes, and a great war was taking place, but Han Younian could only retreat woodenly. He felt that he was losing control of his body, and the noise almost drowned him.

"Son... son..."

The intimate whispers began to become clearer in his ears. Han Younian walked towards the voice calling him step by step. He no longer knew whether he was in control or something else. He just saw an old woman who was tortured by longing and separation at the end of his consciousness.

"mother……"

Han Younian opened his mouth and made a hoarse sound. He stretched out his hands like a zombie and hugged the direction where the sound came from, embracing his death.

“To remind others…”

Even faced with such an ending, Han Younian did not complain much. He just regretted that his journey had to stop here.

When he and Fairy Guiyun really hugged each other, Fairy Guiyun's pupils radiated purple light and her expression was extremely excited.

"Son, you're okay, that's great, you're okay..."

"Mom, I'm fine." Han Younian replied hesitantly.

"It's good that everything is fine. When mother finds your father, we will return to Baimei Valley and never care about the intrigues in this world again."

"Okay." Han Younian raised his head and smiled at Fairy Guiyun, "Mom, it's really too risky for you to come to such a dangerous place alone..."

"Alone? Mother brought people from Baimei Valley with her."

Fairy Guiyun pulled Han Younian away from the fighting area of ​​the palace and said to him with a smile: "Look, these are your fellow apprentices. They heard that mother was coming to pick you up, so they all gave their full support and came together."

Han Younian took a look at the incomplete and barely pieced-together bodies and was somewhat surprised.

"Don't be afraid. How could I let them take risks? If something unexpected happened, wouldn't Baimei Valley be destroyed in an instant? That's not okay... I selected the best disciples in Baimei Valley and sent them here using the corpse transformation technique."

"Corpse transformation... Immortal technique?"

"Silly child, you just woke up and don't understand. Mother knows that you are possessed by some evil spirit and can't even move on your own. That's why you always step into danger. You just came to find your father, but you encountered so many dangers. It's because the information I gave you was not comprehensive enough..."

Fairy Guiyun kept chattering and pulled Han Younian away from the main area where Heaven and Fengdu were confronting each other.

Yan Li "watched" all this and suddenly laughed.

“Hahaha, Corpse Reincarnation Immortal, Corpse Reincarnation Immortal! I see. But this magic is not perfect either. Have you really found your son? Are you planning to use this method to resurrect your husband? Baimei Valley… Hahaha, are there really still a few living people in Baimei Valley?”

Several zombies grabbed Yan Li's arms, but Yan Li didn't care at all. Instead, he smiled even more happily.

"Fairy Guiyun, I don't know what you've been through, but I know it all too well. You and I are just like silkworms in cocoons, trying to see the outside world. I didn't see it, but what you saw was just a glimpse of destiny!"

"You should have been a good carrier." Fairy Guiyun shook her head slightly, "But you have too many problems in your head. I don't want the person I awaken to have hysteria."

Yan Li didn't care what Fairy Gui Yun said, she just laughed crazily, her body even began to twitch, and then her arm fell off and smashed into a puddle of mud on the ground.

"The moon waxes and the stars wane..."

Finally, Yan Li whispered this sentence and was torn to pieces by the corpses around him.

Fairy Guiyun didn't care much about the death of such a minor character. She knew that her "corpse transformation" magic was not yet complete and could not really help her find her family. But she was still very happy that she found her son, which proved that the magic was really effective, but she still needed to complete it.

At the same time, the people Qu Hongzhu brought also approached the area of ​​the palace.

Wei Jingxian was quite reluctant to get closer at this moment, but in order to complete the spell of "The Book of Seven Arrows with Nailed Heads", he had no choice but to come here and try to kill a few people or demons who had a strong relationship with life and death.

At this moment, he actually regretted it a little. Although the "Seven Arrows Book" was powerful, it was a very demanding magic. It was not like Bai Xiaoshu, which only required killing enough people. However, even if he wanted to change it now, it was too late. Moreover, he believed from the bottom of his heart that only strong strength could be regarded as the real capital for survival.

"But we can also think about the internal situation of the Demon Suppression Bureau." Wei Jingxian suddenly had an idea, "There is no need for me to intervene in that kind of battle. Let the emperor and the demon star fight to the death. If the winner is decided, they will have time to deal with me, which will be bad."

The Demon Suppression Division collected many demon creations, and the demon suppression officials with a slightly higher authority could obtain some of the information. With Wei Jingxian Qinchen's identity, he could even see the action reports of each demon suppression official.

"I hope they don't die easily outside." Wei Jingxian turned around and immediately changed direction, heading towards another road.

Compared to him, Dong Wuyou couldn't wait any longer.

For Dong Wuyou, he is now in a state where he is forcing himself to move up. Qu Hongzhu pushed him to a position that does not belong to him. Now this prince is probably still fantasizing that he is the biggest competitor for the throne, and has never thought that no one takes him seriously.

So Dong Wuyou rushed directly into the center of the battle zone where Heaven and Fengdu collided.

He must have the Azure Dragon Emperor Qi, which is the innate true qi that belongs only to the emperor and is the true symbol of the throne. In his opinion, in order to inspire the strength to compete with the demon star, Dong Zai must have used a large amount of Azure Dragon Emperor Qi to compete, and this aura must be all over the battlefield now.

In a sense, he was right. At this moment, under the cover of "Heaven", the Canglong Emperor Qi was at its most concentrated. Every attack of the heavenly soldiers and generals was attached with this true Qi to destroy the main body of Fengdu. Under the continuous bombardment, Fengdu was almost disintegrated, and most of the buildings on it had collapsed. These smashed buildings killed many people and monsters, but they were also used to the limit by the Ten Palaces.

When the palace of Prince Qin Guang crashed into the Plum Garden, Dong Zai also walked out of the house.

He looked haggard, but full of joy—two adjectives that rarely appear on the same person at the same time. He held a ruyi in one hand and a scroll of imperial edict in the other, looking at the gradually collapsing palace in the sky, which was always within reach of him, and couldn't help but shouting, "Historian! Where is the historian?"

"His Majesty!"

Some officials who were still alive came running over, including Prime Ministers Pei Yingfu and Li Zhuoyu. They all had traces of battle on their bodies, and it was obvious that no one could escape the battle.

Dong Zai became somewhat dissatisfied upon seeing this.

"I called the historians here, why are you all here? Prime Minister Pei, Prime Minister Li, didn't I ask you to bring people to support? Why are you back to the palace?"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is leading the army in person, how can we, the officials, escape first?" "Nonsense! My words are the imperial decree, how dare you disobey it? Historian!"

An official stepped out hastily: "I am here."

"Remember this! Remember this. At the end of the year of Guisi, Emperor Dong Zai moved to Xingyin. He encountered the ancient evil star Ten Palaces heading north. He gathered the strength of the entire city to defeat it, slay the evil star, and punish the chief culprit!" Dong Zai waved the Ruyi in his hand, "My dear ministers! Can I be called a wise ruler?"

Everyone bowed their heads, but no one answered.

"...Yes, I have killed so many people, but I cannot be called a wise ruler." Dong Zai muttered as if in a dream, and then he raised his voice, "Then can I be called a great ruler?"

Still no one answered.

"If I fail to restore prosperity to my country after the country collapsed, I cannot be called a great ruler." Dong Zai denied again.

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty." Pei Yingfu took a trembling step forward and bowed, but Dong Zai completely ignored him.

He spoke words that the ministers could not understand at all, with a smile and hesitation on his face, waving the Ruyi and the imperial edict in his hands. It looked quite funny, but no one could laugh at this scene.

The price is being paid. The collision with Fengdu quickly consumed the reserves of the Heavenly Court, and also made the price to be paid earlier. The ministers didn't even know whether Dong Zai still had self-awareness, but Fengdu did collapse completely here, and the Ten Palaces did not appear, perhaps they were destroyed together with Fengdu.

Suddenly, Dong Zai sat down on the ground, loosened his hands, and Ruyi fell into the snow.

He said a few words, then shook his head slightly, raised his hand and gently made a "go away" gesture.

Pei Yingfu looked back and said, "Commander Jiao, organize people to clean up the remaining demons and don't let them get close to the palace."

"promise."

Li Zhuoyu patted Pei Yingfu on the shoulder and said, "I'll go and keep an eye on him. The emperor is more familiar with you... You stay."

Pei Yingfu smiled bitterly.

Dong Zai sat on the steps, looking at the sky with empty eyes.

"I know...you can no longer hear me. Hahaha, I wanted to share this joy with you, but when did you start? Forget it, forget it..."

Dong Zai opened the imperial edict, and the characters on it were floating like ghost paintings. The meaning of the words had been lost. This not only represented the plunder of him by "Heaven", but also represented that the natural rules set by the true immortals were indeed in a state of collapse. He had never heard that "Heaven" had such side effects.

"That's all..."

He let out a long sigh of emotion.

A blurry shadow appeared in the field of vision. Dong Zai couldn't tell who it was, but he had just asked all the ministers to leave. At least these ministers should know how to deal with the next steps.

"Not a subject? It doesn't matter..."

He looked at the only one left nearby.

"Is it Prime Minister Pei or Prime Minister Li? I believe in your abilities, but unfortunately I can't go on. If you have the ability, clean up the ruins of Fengdu and take a look at the situation of the Ten Palaces...ah, you don't understand, so that's it."

Dong Zai stood up on his knees, staggered forward, and waved to the ministers who stayed behind.

Qu Hongzhu hid behind a tree, but saw the emperor walking straight towards her and couldn't help feeling a little panicked.

Seeing the earth-shattering battle with Fengdu just now, even if the emperor would fall down with just one touch, Qu Hongzhu was still afraid that the other party had some tricks up his sleeve.

However, Dong Zai only spoke some words that she could not understand.

Qu Hongzhu calmed her mind for a moment. After all, the tourists had all experienced big scenes. She quickly recovered from the shock just now, slowly drew out her sword, and waited for an opportunity.

Wasn't it just right that the Emperor walked into Merlin himself? He had chosen this graveyard for himself, and no matter what defenses he had, he would never be able to stop the first blow.

"Attribute conversion, sharp." Qu Hongzhu gently stroked the sword, and the cold light on the sword edge began to become more dazzling. The ability that Qu Hongzhu brought into the scene was simple and pure, but it was a disposable item, unlike the things that many big guys could use forever.

However, the cold light in her hand was magnified several times in Dong Zai's eyes. The brilliance of the weapon made Dong Zai immediately realize the identity of the person who came, but he found it quite funny.

When everything had already reached its predetermined outcome, why did this assassin come? Was it just to bring his death a little earlier?

As his strength gradually faded, Dong Zai's legs softened and he fell into the snow. He could not feel the cold around him, nor could he tell anyone about his wonderful feelings at the moment. In this mysterious state, he saw the truth of the rules that were on the verge of being broken, so he used his fingers to write on the imperial edict spread out in front of him, stroke by stroke, no matter what it was, he wrote down what he saw and heard, and everything that was left at the moment.

The Emperor's will of the Wei Dynasty, if one is modified, then all wills will be modified. Although under the cover of "Severed Dragon", it cannot immediately affect the rest of the wills and imperial edicts, but "Severed Dragon" will not exist forever, "Fengdu" will not exist forever, and "Heaven"... will not exist forever.

Dong Jae looks up as the assassin approaches.

"I am the Jade Emperor. This place is the Supreme Palace. Until my Blue Dragon Emperor Qi is completely exhausted, the Heavenly Court will protect my subjects."

The light in the sky flickered, as if responding to the emperor.

Qu Hongzhu raised his sword in front of Dong Zai.

"And in the history books... well, I hope the Grand Historian won't write me as too foolish and incompetent." Dong Zai said leisurely, and then he saw a cold light falling towards him like a waterfall.

Chi.

With a slight sound, the head fell to the ground. Qu Hongzhu was a little surprised and even felt the feeling of chopping off the head.

She did decapitate Dong Jae, but it was like stabbing a corpse. It didn't give her much sense of accomplishment, and Dong Jae didn't even bleed.

"Only in this way?"

At the same time, Lu Ning, who was running in the snowy night and approaching the "Dragon Breaking" boundary, felt the heat emanating from the imperial edict in his arms.
