Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 760 Wenchang, Actually I am not Ziwei
Gu Xu clearly felt the loss of spiritual power in his body.

The fierce battle against the backlash of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth had left him exhausted, and he could only hold on for an hour at most.

Time is running out, and he must seize this last hour to make clear important matters and ensure that everyone performs their duties so that the foundation of the Great Wilderness will not be disrupted by his departure.

Although it is said that "everything is empty after death", he still hopes that even if he is gone, Dahuang can continue to develop in the right direction as he planned.

"Call Luochuan and Wang Jian for me. I have something to say to them." He whispered.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Han Shunxi bowed deeply again.

As he turned and left, he unconsciously covered his face with his sleeves, quietly hiding the tears in his eyes and the sobs in his nose.

…………

The concubines temporarily retreated, and the three ministers entered Gu Xu's bedroom one by one.

The first person to come in was Wang Jian.

He looked at the young master lying on the couch, his eyes fixed on his pale and weak face caused by the backlash, his eyes full of worry and uneasiness.

He bowed and saluted, his voice trembling slightly: "Your Majesty."

"Prince..." Gu Xu coughed lightly, stretched out a hand, and pointed to the drawer of the desk beside him with difficulty, "Take it out of the drawer..."

Wang Jian immediately stepped forward and gently opened the drawer. He saw several books with ancient bindings lying quietly inside, exuding a profound and heavy atmosphere.

He was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Gu Xu with confusion in his eyes.

"This is... the Taoism I have compiled in recent months from the true meanings of several powers," Gu Xu closed his eyes slightly, as if gathering strength, and then slowly opened them again, "My understanding of the great Dao of heaven and earth is all in it, and I don't want them to be annihilated with my death.

"You are now in charge of the core formation of the Qingdu Illusion. After I die, place these secret books in the Qingdu Illusion so that everyone in the world can have the opportunity to comprehend them. I believe that there will always be someone who is destined to pass them on and not let them be lost in the years."

Wang Jian's body trembled slightly when he heard this.

He couldn't help but wonder in his heart: Could it be that His Majesty had foreseen today's fate a few months ago? Otherwise, why would he compile these precious Taoist methods one by one and put them in the drawer in advance? Could it be that all this was arranged by His Majesty after careful consideration?
But thinking back on His Majesty's performance over the past few months, everything seemed normal and he behaved calmly, not at all like someone who knew he was about to die.

Was he worried that he might behave strangely before the arrival of a powerful enemy, thus causing instability in the country?
As Wang Jian thought about it, tears flowed uncontrollably from his eyes.

He slowly knelt down and bowed his head to the ground, his voice trembling slightly due to the suppressed sobs: "I... obey your order! I will not let your majesty down!"

"Don't be so sad," Gu Xu smiled gently, "Grandmaster, I will soon go to another world and teach your Master Tie Niu a lesson. Is there anything you want me to convey for you?"

Wang Jian didn't say anything, he just lowered his head even lower, his shoulders shaking constantly.

When he raised his head again, tears were already streaming down his face.

…………

After Wang Jian left, Luo Chuan followed him to the bedroom.

As soon as he entered the room, he quickly walked to the couch, then knelt on the ground with a plop, his voice trembling with sobs: "Emperor!"

He lowered his head and clenched the hem of his clothes tightly with both hands, his knuckles turning slightly white from excessive force.

He was always known for his composure, but at this moment he was like a helpless child, unable to control his emotions. Tears rolled down his cheeks and dripped onto the cold floor.

"Emperor..." He said in a hoarse voice, "You once promised that you would take me, your old minister, with you to fight in the upper realm, kill Taishang Haotian, and take back the heavenly palace that belongs to us... Your wish has not been fulfilled yet, how can you abandon me and leave alone?

“Emperor, I am incompetent! Thousands of years ago, you protected us from the wind and rain, and now you are still protecting us from the strong enemies... I am so useless that I cannot share even a little of your burden. I can only watch you suffer, but I can do nothing... "Emperor, how can this world be without you..."

At this moment, Luo Chuan's mind flashed with past scenes like a revolving lantern -

On his way to Chaoyang City, the capital of Zhao State, he was robbed by a group of bandits.
The Emperor took him away from the residence of Guannei Hou Zhen Shaofu in a carriage pulled by a "unicorn", saying: "The ten-year period has come, and we respectfully welcome the young master of Ziwei Pavilion back to the clan";
The Emperor stood on the edge of a towering cliff, gazing at the starry sky, and calmly but firmly expressed his ambition to "make everyone in the world like a dragon";

……

The Emperor defied the will of Heaven, came back to life, and strode back to the human world from the peak of Kunlun Mountain;

The Emperor used the "Sun and Moon Change the Sky" technique to burn Emperor Tianxing to ashes. His body was covered in blood, but he still calmly picked up Emperor Tianxing's Tai'a sword;
The emperor wore a crown with tassels on his head and a robe, and ascended the throne at the Circular Mound Altar on the outskirts of the city.
The golden "Haotian Ship" cut through the sky, carrying his former comrade "Tianji Xingjun" and countless precious resources from the Lingxiao Realm, and slowly descended into the Great Wilderness World...

……

"Stop calling me 'Emperor'."

At this moment, Gu Xu's voice came lightly, instantly interrupting Luo Chuan's chaotic thoughts.

Luo Chuan was stunned for a moment, and looked up blankly, his mind full of confusion.

What does the Emperor mean by this?
Could it be that the Emperor suddenly doesn't like this title anymore?

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Before Luo Chuan could figure out the meaning of this sentence, he saw Gu Xu raise his weak hand and gently touch his forehead.

There were no earth-shaking visions, nor dazzling lights and shadows.

There didn't seem to be any outward changes in Luochuan's body.

He was in a trance for just a moment, as if something deep in his soul suddenly shattered with a "crack".

Deep in my memory, the brilliant and dazzling figure of Emperor Ziwei thousands of years ago faded away silently in this instant.

Luo Chuan suddenly realized that the Emperor seemed to be different from what he had known in the past.

He is not the perfect, righteous being he has always been.

He also has many shortcomings that are common to ordinary people.

He is selfish, egoistic, lustful, self-willed, sensitive and suspicious.

For the sake of profit, he would use the magic of cause and effect to personally end the life of his wife from the demon fairy clan.

He would be unable to resist and become extremely angry when facing Tai Shang Hao Tian's relentless pressure.

He was even wary of the "Star Lords" he trusted the most, leaving a mark of loyalty deep in their souls...

……

Today, that mark disappeared quietly.

Luochuan just felt that his past life seemed like a long dream.

And at this moment, he finally woke up from his dream and saw the real thing.

Like looking at flowers in the fog or looking at the moon in the water.

"Gui Hai, you are a good person," Gu Xu said softly with a faint smile on his face, "From now on, be yourself. You don't have to live for other people's ideals."
