Midnight Forced Marriage

Chapter 236 Chu Yue's Devil

"Chu Yue, do you really not remember that woman who knows magic spells?"

Back in the room, it was already evening, and I was still immersed in the dream just now.It stands to reason that the lady named Xiangxiang should meet Chu Yue's aesthetic standards, no matter in terms of appearance or personality.

"Apart from seeing those, what else did you see?" Chu Yue was really thinking, "Tell me more."

Chu Yue placed the little boy in black in his hand on the table, and stood side by side with the little boy in red.Now the red-clothed baby in the enchantment has changed beyond recognition, and it doesn't look too hideous, but it has no shape, more like a humanoid mud, an unformed doll that's all.Chu Yue withdrew the original barrier, cast another spell, and set up a barrier that was one size larger than the previous one, covering the red and black clothes together in it.

Thinking about it, this little boy in black named Xuanyu will not escape the same fate for a while.In my life, I am destined to owe this debt, just like my brother Shijiang owed Xiaoyu.

"I didn't see that much." I yawned.

"Then I really don't have any impression." Chu Yue sat there, looking at me carefully, "Frankly speaking, apart from Xiyue's friend, the only woman in my impression is you."

When I raised my eyebrows, I really didn't know if he was telling the truth or deliberately deceiving me.I just know that it's quite useful for me, and maybe my heart is a little calmer and less aggressive.

"That woman's name is Xiangxiang, so it should be a nickname. As for a girl, it's probably the name of a very powerful person."

"Yes, Shangnv is the title of the priest of Wuxiang Kingdom."

I sat next to him, frowned and asked, "The woman is a priest and calls the woman, what about the man?"

Chu Yue chuckled and shook his head, "Wuxiang Kingdom is different from our Chu Kingdom. Men are not respected or allowed to be priests, and they are all women."

"A man is a general?" I haven't had time to tell him about General Shanti, "Or is it lower than a woman?"

"Wuxiang Kingdom never uses force, only uses witch power. Therefore, even if a man can become the highest-ranking general, it is just a vacant post. Because in Wujing Kingdom, people without spiritual power are basically useless. However, the exception is that no matter how strong a woman's spiritual power is, she cannot be a king."

"King? Isn't it passed down from generation to generation?" I asked puzzled.

"Yes, the king of Wuxiang Kingdom is not hereditary like me, Chu Guo, where only the man with the highest spiritual power is chosen as the king, and the Shangnu assists the king in governing the country." Chu Yue told me, "Besides, the Shangnu not only One, because..."

"Because of what?" Seeing that Chu Yue hesitated to speak, my ominous premonition deepened again.

"Because the lady called her a priest, it looks nice, but she is like a victim."

"Sacrifice..." I suddenly recalled what Xiangxiang said to Shang Di in the dream, and the words kept talking about sacrifices and sacrifices to have a chance to come back, "Chu Yue, you said that the female is like a sacrifice?"

"Probably." Chu Yue nodded, but he didn't have such a tangled expression and excited tone like mine, as if he was chatting about the weather in a normal way, whether it was bad or sunny, it didn't matter much to him, "I remember I told you that I fled the city when the soldiers were approaching the city, and I was going to the Wuxiang Kingdom to ask for help."

"Yes." I nodded, remembering clearly, "You said that the area there absorbs the essence of the sun and the moon, and there are priests who will collect the spiritual power of the creatures in the world and store it together. When the neighboring countries need it, they will Sell ​​it at an expensive high price for a huge profit."

"Yes, but do you know how it is stored and how it is used?"

"No...I don't know."

Chu Yue's face looks very gloomy at the moment, and his whole body is covered with a murderous aura. In this warm room, sometimes he is my gentle husband, and sometimes he looks like a distant stranger.

"Chu Yue?"

Chu Yue's face softened, and he rubbed my hair, "Don't be afraid, I just thought of some... cruel things."

"cruel?"

I immediately thought of those words in Xiangxiang's mouth. Could it be at the cost of sacrificing his life?
"Yes, after all, most of the spiritual power is stored in the body of the priestess."

"what?"

I frowned, it seems that my guess is not false!

"Some of the spiritual power is very weak, and it may be stored in some artifacts and dissipate in a short time. Isn't it a waste?" Chu Yue said calmly, "So, those wizards came up with another way to select talents from the country. Talented girls, taught them spells since they were young, practiced and accumulated their own spiritual power. After they grew up, they went through strict screening, and three females were selected every year, and they were raised in the palace, and carried by their own spiritual power. The spiritual power collected from the creatures of heaven and earth or spirit beasts. Those spiritual powers do not come from their own cultivation. It is only after the girls have endured a lot of pain and years of hard training that they can match those spiritual powers. Fusion."

I couldn't imagine it, so I didn't react too much, "Then, what if someone wants to use these spiritual powers and exchange them for gold? Can those spiritual powers be taken out of the body again?"

"Of course not." Chu Yue gave a negative answer, "Sisters have some talents and intelligence, who can integrate the spiritual power planted in their bodies with their own years of cultivation, and after being exchanged for gold , even if you transfer your cultivation base to the other party, or transfer it to the divine weapon, your own life can be preserved, but that will also be at the cost of your own cultivation base being sucked away, because those spiritual powers have been integrated into one. However, hundreds of years ago, only two or three women had this ability, and the rest"

Chu Yue paused, glanced at me, and continued, "The rest of the girls can only be sold as weapons to neighboring countries. At that time, they must be manipulated by wizards to use up the last trace of spiritual power in the wars of other countries." , Kill the enemy to win. The only thing they hope for is that the war will end soon, and maybe they can save a little bit of energy to go home."

"So that's how it is!" I couldn't help sighing after hearing this, thinking, this is what the girl on Xiangxiang thought, right?She still has a little confidence in herself, otherwise she wouldn't have said that to General Shangdi.

Chu Yue looked at me suspiciously and frowned, "What do you know?"

I nodded and told him all the things in the dream in detail. I spoke very slowly, remembering and talking, and it was dark before I knew it.

"So that's it!" Chu Yue also expressed the same emotion as me, but the content of our thoughts is different, right?

After hearing this, he was thoughtful, as if bored and anxious, but he just couldn't remember.I've never seen him anxious before, he seemed to be calm when encountering everything, but at this moment he actually beat his head while thinking.

"Chu Yue" I was taken aback and hurriedly stopped him, "Please, you may not be able to remember it like this, maybe you will forget more... Don't be like this, please"

Chu Yue's expression was very painful, he was pulling his hair with his hands, and beating his head from time to time, as if a headache patient had an attack.But I'm [-]% sure he doesn't have a headache, just a headache.
