Raising the Demon

Chapter 707
The inner city, the imperial palace, and the road paved with yellow bricks stretch into the distance, creating an illusory sense of sprawl.

It never seems to end.

The golden-armored guards standing on both sides, and the golden dragon guards walking three steps in front of the side, seem to have turned into an eternal image.

Zi Baifeng stopped suddenly, stood in the center of the road, and looked up.

His thoughts seemed to be floating in the air, flying around above the yellow brick avenue and the purple brick wall, looking down at himself standing on the ground below.

So small, like a drowning person about to be submerged in the sea.

Jin Longwei turned his head and looked at Zi Baifeng, his pupils had a faint golden flash, as if a layer of golden coating had been applied to his eyes.

"Master Zi?" Jin Longwei clenched his fist behind his back tightly, waiting for Zi Baifeng to make trouble or regret it.

At the end of the road, after two palaces, Ji Yan also clenched her fists nervously, did Zi Baifeng notice something?
Impossible, he asked himself, he didn't show any tell.

"What a beautiful world." Zi Baifeng said suddenly.

There was a strange excitement in his voice, as if at that moment, he had already decided something.

"Yes." Zi Baifeng's voice seemed to have a peculiar persuasive force, and Jin Longwei unconsciously turned his head to look at the huge square just like Zi Baifeng.

Neat, serious, luxurious and lofty.

This is the imperial city, the most authoritative place in the entire Celestial Kingdom.

And here, so beautiful.

Every point is unique, soaked in the wisdom of the builder.

"Are you willing to give everything to protect it?" Zi Baifeng asked.

"Yes." Jin Longwei's voice became firm, he had already decided to give everything.

Zi Baifeng tilted his head slightly and looked at him.

This is a middle-aged Golden Dragon Guard. His face bears the vicissitudes of the years, and there are scars left after the killing. He is serious, resolute, and determined.

I don't know what kind of life he has experienced, why he became Jinlongwei, and why he is willing to dedicate everything to protect the most beautiful world in his mind.

But Zi Baifeng laughed.

"Me too."

"Let's go." Zi Baifeng waved his hand and strode out without stopping.

Jin Longwei quickly walked a few steps, and continued to lead the way in front of him.

After walking the long road and bypassing the two main halls, Zi Baifeng saw Ji Yan, who was wearing a yellow robe, standing at the door of the side hall, his eyes were calm and indifferent, but there was an unpredictable smile in his eyes. Light.

"Your Majesty." Zi Baifeng bowed to salute, Ji Yan laughed loudly, stepped forward and said, "Zi Aiqing!"

Ji Er waved to Jin Longwei, who bowed his hands and retreated, guarding outside the side hall, Zi Baifeng noticed that Ji Er didn't even look at him.

What is the purpose of such a Jinlongwei, to sacrifice his life to protect this world?
Zi Baifeng doesn't understand, maybe they also have people and things that they have to protect, and they have to protect them at all costs.

Even if you become a tool of others, become a vassal of others, and lose your free will and power to choose, the same is true.

Perhaps they are nobler than themselves.

And myself...

And Ji Jing!
The two sides sat down as guest and host, Zi Baifeng sat at the head, and asked with a smile: "Your Majesty invited me this time, why?"

"I have nothing to do, so can't I invite Zi Aiqing to talk?" Ji Qin smiled, but sighed again, and said: "I have been very busy these days. I just took the throne, and everything is not stable. Thanks to Youzi Aiqing for your support."

"This is what I should do." Zi Baifeng responded with a smile, without any sincerity.

"Zi Aiqing has always worked hard for the country and the people, fighting against the fairy world, the demon realm, and the demon world. But starting today, Zi Aiqing can take a break."

Zi Baifeng smiled slightly, but didn't answer, just looked at Ji Qin.

"Come here, serve good wine!" Ji Yan clapped her hands, and four Golden Dragon Guards came in from the outside and stood beside Zi Baifeng, they didn't have any wine in their hands.

At this moment, the earth suddenly shook.

Under the earth, there was a strange roar, like an earth dragon turning over, a volcano erupted, the whole capital was shaken, even the imperial palace was crumbling, the food and drinks on the table fell all over the ground, and several Golden Dragon Guards were almost Subconsciously, he flew forward and surrounded Ji Yan, and more Golden Dragon Guards rushed in together.

Zi Baifeng turned his head to look over, and after a glance, he could see clearly.

"One, two, three...fifteen...sixteen." Zi Baifeng smiled, "Your Majesty is indeed cautious, it seems that His Majesty's throne is really unstable and needs more than a dozen Golden Dragon Guards to protect it .”

And these Golden Dragon Guards, without a doubt, each possessed the strength of a true immortal.

Zi Baifeng squinted his eyes, and in his vision of spiritual power, there was a golden glare in front of him.

Under the protection of these golden dragon guards, Ji Yan felt at ease for the first time. Finally, he had great power, and he only listened to the power at his disposal.

Powerful and reliable, with such strength by your side, any opponent can be defeated!
Zi Baifeng sighed inwardly.

Ji Yan really succeeded. He thought that with Xiaopan's calculation ability and his ever-changing magic formula, he should be the strongest in imitating and deciphering the technique of raising immortals.

But I didn't expect Ji Yan to finish it faster.

When he saw these Golden Dragon Guards for the first time, he was shocked by them, but now seeing so many Golden Dragon Guards, he was even more shocked in his heart.

And he had already prepared for the reasons for these Jin Longwei's sudden appearance.

His domain is hidden, and the few cards in his sleeves are already sweating.

"Boom!" There was another loud noise, and the whole of Shangjing was shaken, as if someone had put Shangjing on a wooden board and stepped on it desperately.

"What's going on!" Ji Yan finally couldn't calm down and shouted loudly.

Sudden changes prevented him from carrying out his original plan immediately.

He planned to dispatch sixteen Golden Dragon Guards to take Zi Baifeng in one fell swoop, regardless of life or death.

As for himself, he wanted to see Zi Baifeng captured by him, Zi Baifeng's annoying face that was always calm and confident was swollen, and his overly bright eyes were blinded. Looking at him with equal eyes.

That's right, what he couldn't bear the most was when Zi Baifeng looked at him with no respect in his eyes, no respect for the superiors, no respect for the royal family, and no obedience to the Son of Destiny.

From this point of view, he is a genuine member of the Ji family. Like his dead brother, he cannot bear others' contempt for him.

They are the emperor's family, which can never be erased.

"Report—" A spy rushed over, threw himself on the ground, even slid forward a few meters, and said loudly, "Report Your Majesty, the Demon Realm is attacking the city!"

This is an urgent military report in the most urgent situation. Before Zi Baifeng came in, Ji Jing had already ordered the road to be closed, and at this time, the spy broke through all the checkpoints and rushed all the way.

At this time, Ji Jing was not the emperor, but the commander-in-chief of the entire Celestial Kingdom.

"What?" Ji Yan's complexion suddenly changed.

"Where's the defenders? Why don't they block it?" Zi Baifeng asked.

Ji Yan glared at Zi Baifeng, but still asked, "Where's the defenders?"

"The defenders have already fought with the demons in the Demon Realm, but they suffered heavy casualties..."

"Give me the order to mobilize the imperial army immediately!" Ji Jing slapped the table and stood up. In fact, he has not even completely gathered the imperial army. The imperial army is the army most loyal to the emperor. There is no time to finish cleaning.

Therefore, Ji Jing has been suppressing the forbidden army in a corner of Shangjing, and both welfare benefits and power have been greatly weakened.

But at this time, all he can use is the forbidden army.

The spy immediately took the order and left. Zi Baifeng watched coldly, and even reached out to take the jug from a golden dragon guard, poured a glass of wine, and said to Ji Yan: "Your Majesty, there is no need to panic. The capital is as solid as gold, and the evil spirits will definitely be there." It's hard to break through."

"Don't drink!" Seeing that Zi Baifeng was about to drink, Ji Yan hastily stretched out his hand to stop him, Zi Baifeng looked at Ji Qin with a half-smile, and asked, "Why?"

He didn't listen to dissuasion, and drank the wine in his mouth in one gulp.

After drinking, Zi Baifeng felt a line of fire piercing his stomach, and all internal organs were burned.

But the spiritual power of the Demon Cultivation Art in Zi Baifeng's body started to work spontaneously, and in an instant, the toxin in the wine was decomposed and turned into harmless substances, which were scattered throughout the body.

Zi Baifeng drank another glass of wine, then he sat down, drank and ate, without any worries.

"You..." Ji Ren looked at Jin Longwei beside him.

At this moment, the strongest power in his hands is here.

In order to arrest Zi Baifeng.

Now he has two options, one option is to take down Zi Baifeng immediately, and then send these Golden Dragon Guards to deal with the invading demons.

One is to directly send Jin Longwei out to deal with the demons and let Zi Baifeng leave.

Ji Yu hesitated for a moment, he could see the sneering smile on Zi Baifeng's face, and he even believed a hundred times that even if he tore his face here, Jin Longwei would not be able to take Zi Baifeng down.

He didn't know why, but he was so convinced that at some point, Zi Baifeng had already planted an invincible seed in his heart.

But if you don’t try, how can you be content?

Did he live in the shadow of Zi Baifeng all his life?

Could it be that the forbidden army and the defenders couldn't even defend this moment?

Zi Baifeng waited quietly, waiting for Ji Qin to make a decision.

Whether it's war or peace, Zi Baifeng puts the right to choose in Ji Qin's hands.

"Zi Aiqing, the evil spirits are attacking the city, and I ask for your help." Ji Qin said.

"No hurry, no hurry." Zi Baifeng smiled, "It's just a group of demons, I've seen them a lot, and Shangjing is as solid as gold, so I don't think it will be so easy to break through."

Ji Jing said whatever he wanted, but if Zi Baifeng just sat there and Zi Baifeng didn't move, Ji Jing would not dare to withdraw Jin Longwei. He was really afraid that as soon as Jin Longwei left, Zi Baifeng would attack and kill him.

Ji Yan's heart swelled, she gritted her teeth suddenly, and ordered Jin Longwei to take Zi Baifeng down, you forced me to do this!
But at this moment, Zi Baifeng stood up, laughed, and said, "Since Your Majesty needs to defend against evil spirits, I don't want to bother you anymore. I have been unwell for the past two days, and I have a slight illness. Your Majesty is surrounded by strong soldiers. I don’t need to take action, I’d better say goodbye.”

After finishing speaking, Zi Baifeng patted his buttocks, stood up, and strode out.

At that moment, Ji Quan really wanted to stop Zi Baifeng desperately, but when Zi Baifeng was out of sight, he didn't dare to speak.

"Trash!" Ji Yan was extremely angry, and suddenly slapped the Jin Longwei beside him on the face.

That Jin Longwei turned his face slightly, and endured the slap, but his complexion did not change at all, not even the slightest change in his eyes.

"Waste, waste, all waste!" Ji Er stomped desperately, overturned, smashed and spilled the wine and vegetables all over the floor.

After venting, he pointed to the outside and shouted angrily: "You trash, hurry up and defend against foreign enemies!"

The sixteen Golden Dragon Guards all turned around and were about to leave.

Ji Yan shouted angrily: "Wait! Leave four people to protect me, what if Zi Baifeng comes back?"

The sixteen Golden Dragon Guards looked at each other, four of them stood up, and the others flew away and disappeared.

Ji Yan sat back on her throne, feeling resentful, yet terrified and worried.

What if Zibaifeng leaves and returns?
What if the demon breaks through Shangjing?
How to do?
How to do?
How to do?
"Alas." Seeing the twelve Golden Dragon Guards flying out, Zi Baifeng sighed softly.

When one of the Golden Dragon Guards flew over his head, he looked back at him.

He recognized that person, it was the Jin Longwei who brought him into the palace.

Are you willing to give everything to protect this beautiful world?
If yes, then now is the time for you to pay the price.

Zi Baifeng bowed his head and walked forward. At that moment, he didn't look like a winner in the psychological struggle with Ji Qin, but a complete loser.

Because, he finally started to be desperate for the purpose.

Lost the principles he once insisted on.

……

The demonic siege of Shangjing lasted for a whole day.

Countless demons gushed out from the horizon like a tide, and even came out from the ground, making it difficult for the Shangjing defenders and the imperial guards to deal with it.

Later, all the forces in the entire capital participated in the war. The monks, sects, and big families all sent out their own forces to fight against the evil spirits.

The battlefield spread from near the city wall to under the imperial city.

When the battle was at its most intense, the leader of the demons, the huge troll general, even beat the defensive formation of the imperial city with both fists like crazy, making the entire formation crumbling and almost being breached.

Sixteen Golden Dragon Guards participated in the battle one after another, and then died in battle one after another.

The troll will bring four demon generals. Their biggest trump card is to wear ordinary demons on their bodies to form a terrifying armor. Under the protection of this armor, the attacks of the Golden Dragon Guard can hardly destroy their defenses. force.

And Jin Longwei also exposed the most fundamental flaws in this battle, that is, they are all quick-improved, not cultivated from scratch, and their combat power cannot last long. The most one lasted for half an hour, and was defeated The demon general tore it into pieces and ate it directly into his stomach.

Fortunately, the troll general was repulsed in the end, maybe because of too many casualties, maybe because he felt that he could not attack for a long time, or for other reasons, when the sky was getting dark, the troll general let out a roar, and the tide The demons that came normally receded like a tide, disappeared above the horizon, and disappeared under the earth.

Only corpses and endless ruins are left on the ground.

I don't know how many civilians were involved, and there were cries everywhere.

Shangjing, where singing and dancing was peaceful, turned into a huge battlefield overnight, and less than half of Shangjing was destroyed.

And Zi Baifeng never participated in the battle from the beginning to the end.

He once asked Jin Longwei, are you willing to give everything to protect this beautiful world.

Jin Longwei said yes.

So is he.

If not, how can the high and proud dignitaries in Shangjing feel the pain and feel the threat.

If there were no demons that could come to disturb him at any time, there would be no need for his Zi Baifeng.

If there is no cunning rabbit, where is the need for lackeys?
Without birds, where is the need for a good bow?
This is reality, the law of reality that no one can escape.

Therefore, Zi Baifeng knew that the demons were going to launch an attack, even though he promoted the attack, he didn't make a move.

And after this attack, all the super masters created by the imperial family's Huangjisheng Immortal Technique died, and at the same time, the biggest shortcoming of the Huangjisheng Immortal Technique was exposed. , Those quick masters are only semi-finished products after all.

That night, the crying was loud, and Shangjing couldn't sleep.

Zi Baifeng also couldn't fall asleep for a long time. He stood in the courtyard, looking up at the moon, not knowing what to think.

"Brother?" When Xiao Pan walked out of his room, he saw Zi Baifeng standing there in a daze.

"I'm fine." Zi Baifeng wiped his face. He hadn't gotten used to his decision, which caused tens of thousands of people to lose their lives because of him, and even changed the lives of even more people forever.

"Brother, you are right. I have calculated all the possibilities, and your approach is the least loss among all the possibilities."

"That's just calculation..." Zi Baifeng shook his head, the simulated thing, no matter what, is just a simulation.

"We don't have much time, we have to do this." Zi Baifeng seemed to be explaining to others, but also seemed to be convincing himself. After a while, he turned his head and asked Xiaopan, saying: "Did you find anything? "

"Well, I found something." Xiao Pan said in a deep voice, "I think, I know where the disappeared Golden Fairy Zhiluo went."

"Weaving Luo Jinxian?" Zi Baifeng was puzzled, not understanding why Zhiluo Jinxian was pulled out.

"I'm very confident that other than me, it's impossible for anyone else to make such a fast progress." Xiao Pan said, "The development of Huang Ji Sheng Xianshu is really too fast, even far exceeding my progress, and other The idea is very clever.”

He paused, and said: "We have several real immortals and magic doctors, plus my computing power, they can't match the development speed of the royal family. I think this is almost impossible, even if the royal family has a deep background. , and it won’t be so fast.”

"So, I carefully dissected a few corpses, and I found some suspicious things. The emperor's ascension to immortality technique is not the point. Some seeds of fairy spirit buried in their bodies are the important reason for their rapid improvement in cultivation. .”
