Douluo Continent: The Eternal Order of the Azure Sky.

Although they didn't know how the propaganda effect of the live streaming system would change the situation, their keen political sense as emperors made them aware of the risks involved.

Unfortunately, the domestic nobles' demands for it were too great. Just like the issue of promoting soul tools, the united noble class was something even the emperor himself was unwilling to confront.

Ultimately, this has led to the current situation where things are left to develop unchecked, with only a designated person assigned to monitor them.

At this moment, the reason why those carefully selected special agents, who were quite familiar with the national conditions of the Sun Moon Empire, suddenly became nervous was quite simple.

Because that was the formal attire of the Emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire!

There must have been tremendous changes within the Sun Moon Empire, which they cannot afford to ignore.

However, a much larger number of people were oblivious, staring at the screen, simply finding the new host pleasing to the eye, possessing both approachability and dignified presence.

She parted her red lips and said:

"Citizens of the Sun Moon Empire, and people of the entire continent. I am Xu Tianzhen, Emperor of the Sun Moon Empire. I have an important announcement to make to the entire continent."

The very first sentence was earth-shattering.

The Emperor? This is the Emperor of our Sun Moon Empire?

So young? So fair-skinned? And a woman?!

Countless citizens of the Sun Moon Empire gaped in astonishment, their chopsticks slipping from their hands, their rice bowls crashing to the ground with a thud, shards of porcelain and rice scattering everywhere. They seemed unable to process such a massive amount of information for the time being.

Xu Tianzhen's image is far removed from the aristocratic gentleman they had in mind.

However, the name of the innocent princess is not unfamiliar to some people. The good deeds of the Holy Spirit Cult are often carried out in the joint name of Xu Tianzhen and Kong Tianxu.

As for the veracity of the news, the fact that she's standing here already speaks volumes.

In any case, there is no doubt that their curiosity has been fully aroused.

What does Her Majesty the Queen want to say?

Xu Tianzhen's voice gradually became somber—

"Just last night, our capital, Mingdu, suffered an unprecedented terrorist attack. In this attack with extremely heavy casualties, more than one million lives were lost, including my father, Xu Guoyi, the 394th emperor of the empire."

Her voice trembled slightly, and her eyes reddened, but she held back her tears.

Scenes appeared on the Soul Guidance Screen at the right time: the tragic scene after the explosion on Pyongyang Avenue, with broken furniture and clothing scattered among the ruins; the ruins of the Imperial Study in the palace, with carved beams and painted rafters turned into charred charcoal; the tragic wails and cries, the heart-wrenching calls.

Instantly, everyone's attention was drawn to it.

It was too tragic.

Millions of people died! The scene was absolutely shocking.

The glaring crimson craters, the blurred pieces of flesh and blood, and the faces—whether whole or broken, pale and devoid of any life or hope—constantly assaulted the public's vision.

Coupled with Xu Tianzhen's emotional narration, some people couldn't bear it and started crying or vomiting.

For the people who originally belonged to the three kingdoms of Douluo Continent, what was even more unbearable was that among those faces that were forever separated from the living, a considerable number were people they knew well!

Some of them were even their own flesh and blood relatives!

"My son!"

Inside Tiandou City, an elderly couple dressed in brocade robes wailed in despair, their pitiful cries moving all who heard them.

In cities like Xingluo City, Lingdou City, and Shrek City, almost all the cities where live broadcast points were set up were experiencing a similar scene.

The cries of weeping filled the air, like a desolate, ghostly realm.

But more than anything, there was sympathy and anger!

People feel sorrow for their own kind, especially after such a horrific event. The anger of the people has been ignited!

who is it?

Who killed my family?!

Who killed my friend?!

Who killed my compatriots!

who is it!

The sound surged from the depths of everyone's heart, converging in the streets and reverberating in the square, like a sleeping beast awakening.

Like countless other viewers, Xu Tianzhen's eyes were red and tears welled up in them.

She raised her arms, her rounded shoulders trembling uncontrollably, as if they might collapse at any moment.

But her voice remained as firm as ever.

It firmly guides and unites people's hearts and minds.

"The murderers are them!"

On the screen, a face, its hood just pulled off, clearly appeared, filled with boundless hatred and loathing.

On the other small screen, a humanoid figure with the same face was devouring the last guard of Warehouse Zero.

The man licked his lips, looked up with lingering satisfaction at the mountain of explosives piled up in front of him, and gave a mocking, executioner's smile to all the viewers in front of the screen.

"Feel the pain, Mingdu, I've prepared a huge bomb for you."

"The first person's name is Huo Yuhao!"

Xu Tianzhen's pronunciation was extremely clear.

……

"First hurdle passed."

San Shi, in the end you didn't last as long as I did.

With a dizzying, utterly meaningless spin in her mind, Beibei felt as if everything was drifting away from her.

In a daze, he saw a sea of ​​trees, which seemed to be the Star Dou Great Forest, the place where he, Tang Ya, and Huo Yuhao first met.

The sun was shining brightly, and the shadows of the trees were swaying. She stood under the shade of the trees, turned around and smiled.

Everything seemed fine back then.

In a daze, he opened his eyes again.

It's the same familiar room.

Beibei quickly got up and felt all over her body. Fortunately, this time everything was normal.

There were sounds coming from outside the door, including the crackling sound of flames licking something.

He jumped out of bed and walked towards the door, only to find that he couldn't touch it at all. He had no choice but to peek through the crack in the door.

This time, it was Tang Ya who was outside.

She was setting fire to the Tang Clan.

Beibei's breathing suddenly stopped.

He also saw Kong Tianxu.

They seemed to be saying something, but Beibei felt she couldn't hear clearly at all. All she could see was Tang Ya suddenly bursting into tears and throwing herself into Kong Tianxu's arms.

……

The first layer of illusion created by Wenqing Valley was one thing, but the second layer was a dream entirely formed by the child's own subconscious. How could it be like this?

It's unbearable to look at.

Zhong Liyuan closed his eyes with a hint of disgust.

Chapter 326 Xuanzi: My name is! The Grim Reaper? ? ?

After an unknown amount of time, following a prolonged and intense ordeal, Beibei felt herself about to faint. Her vision blurred, her ears rang, and her body no longer felt like her own.

He could only judge the passage of time from the broken sounds.

But at that moment, the firelight outside suddenly became clearer, and the two people's bodies were completely engulfed in flames, but their heads were visible.

He saw Kong Tianxu's eyes, and he saw Tang Ya's eyes.

She only had eyes for him, as if he were her faith.

Kong Tianxu's cold gaze turned to Bei Bei, filled with the arrogance and mockery of a victor.

It was so cold, my tailbone was shivering. Beibei shuddered, then suddenly lost all her strength.

Just then, Tang Ya let out a high-pitched syllable. With the violent movement, one of her already teetering boots was flung out, smashing through the crack in the door and hitting Bei Bei squarely.

But Beibei could no longer see. In utter numbness, the surrounding sounds abruptly ceased, as if someone had pressed a mute button.

He felt the entire room spinning in darkness and firelight, faster and faster, as if he were being drawn into a giant vortex of fire.

At the center of the vortex was a bottomless abyss, surrounded by surging flames. He was swept up, spun, and fell, before exploding with a deafening roar.

Beibei fell straight backward, landing in a sea of ​​fire.

But he couldn't feel any pain, only an indescribable emptiness, as if something had been forcibly ripped out of his body, or as if something had undergone a fundamental change.

Zhong Liyuan's gentle voice finally showed a hint of something unusual.

"The second hurdle: perseverance, failure. Follow your heart, embark on a journey of self-discovery, and you will pass."

It was all a dream. It was all fake, just illusions fabricated from my own thoughts.

That's wonderful... Ah.

But why would I have such a dream?

Why that particular scene? Why Kong Tianxu and Tang Ya? Why not someone else?

Beibei had a sudden realization.

Was it because she lacked confidence, or even felt inferior, when facing Kong Tianxu?

That's why such hallucinations occur.

But what about the journey of self-discovery?

Following the voice of his heart, the self he discovered was surprisingly distorted.

Is this my true nature? Is this my real self?
