After thinking all this through, Shengsheng felt extremely heavy-hearted.

She immediately went to look for Jiang You, but only found Jiang Xuan, who was acting as the state affairs officer. Sheng Sheng learned from him that You You had fainted after presiding over the sacrifice. A female Taoist who called herself "Long Zun" had taken her away and left a message that she would treat Jiang You and keep him healthy for the next 500 years.

So Shengsheng's previous complaint about Er Jiang leaving her alone in her empty room was just a casual remark. In her heart, she was actually very worried about Youyouzi's safety, but on the surface she had to pretend that nothing had happened.

Even the daily lectures in the academy had to be attended as usual, so as to avoid being noticed by those who were interested.

It’s a pity that the news about the sacrifice still spread, and all the ethnic groups heard about it. I’m afraid some people with deep thoughts have already made some associations.

Therefore, in order to keep it secret, Shengsheng chose to hide the fact even from her adopted daughter.

It's not that he was afraid of the other party leaking the secret, but he was worried that during the process of telling the story or after Yan Maiyi found out, someone would find out through some special means.

Since it is top secret, the less people who know about it, the better.

Now only Jiang Xuan and Sheng Sheng know that Jiang You was taken away by Long Zun for treatment, so the risk can be controlled with a high probability.

"Phew~, I'm glad that my godfather is okay. I was so worried about her on the way back."

Hearing what Shengsheng said, Yan Mayi patted his chest and let out a sigh of emotion.

There was a relieved expression on her face, but Shengsheng couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth... This girl wished her father was dead, but now she is still pretending to be a cat crying rat and acting in front of her, the queen of the screen.

In addition, Yan Maiyi was also aware that her acting skills could deceive the demons, but not her stepmother Sheng, so it was obvious that she was doing it on purpose.

If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have spoiled this girl because of my guilt towards Yan and Liu.

In fact, Shengsheng wanted to be a strict mother at first.

——Okay! It’s decided. I’ll be very strict with Xiaoqingtan from now on.

——Otherwise, if he raises another ungrateful little girl like Chanchan and Mai, he would be asking for trouble, and it would also show that Da Shengsheng does not know how to discipline his daughter!

Chapter 212 Listen to Shengsheng's Words

"Your adoptive father will be very pleased to know that Mai cares so much about her."

Shengsheng smiled and went along with the mistake, speaking sarcastically.

At the same time, he did not forget to suggest.

"...By the way, Youyouzi isn't too busy today, how about your stepmother take you to see her?"

"No, no!"

After Sheng Sheng said this, Yan Mayi no longer had any doubts in her heart.

She waved her hands repeatedly.

In her mind, Jiang You was still quite dignified, and he was a great power who had reached the half-step of the Dao. If he was really determined to punish her, he would definitely give her a good beating. Although her stepmother's cultivation level was similar, every time she was beaten when she was a child, she would always be submissive in front of her stepfather who was really angry.

There's no way to count on it!

Besides, Yan Mai is now an adult peacock, and she has her own little thoughts.

I don’t want to see Jiang You!

"My godfather has a lot of state affairs to attend to, and he is responsible for the prosperity and survival of our clan. I cannot disturb him unless it is something serious."

"Hey~, kid...you've grown up now. She won't lecture you like she did when you were little. Don't be afraid."

——That’s hard to say.

Yan Mayi glanced at her stepmother Xia Li, who was a beautiful and elegant person like no other in the world, and thought about her own little calculations, and secretly retorted in her heart.

......

Mai returned home to visit her relatives and stayed in the palace for three months.

Although she was a little naughty, loved to quarrel and fight with the fox, and was always annoying Shengsheng no matter what, but these hundred days also added a lot of liveliness to the usually desolate cold palace.

After Yan Maiyi left, Shengsheng went to Nanyang Academy to give a lecture once, and then went there every three months.

When she went to the academy seventeen times, she finally waited for Jiang You to come back.

this day.

It was the first time in 120 years that Jiang You stepped into Sheng Sheng's bedroom.

When the latter looked up, his brows were deeply furrowed...

At that time, Jiang You looked normal, but Sheng Sheng, who was also half a step away from the Dao, had already sensed how weak the other person's body was.

"Youyou is really amazing. If there is no sacrifice, how long do you want to hide it from me?"

In Shengsheng's perception, Jiang You's spiritual platform seemed like crystal clear glass, the kind that would break if touched. Shengsheng felt sorry for her, but the first thing she said was to complain.

"Li'er..."

The woman who was blamed by Shengsheng showed a guilty expression, as if Shengsheng felt guilty and realized his mistakes when he returned from the north... The woman walked to Xia Li's side, pulled the left corner of his sleeve, lowered her head slightly and called softly.

She didn't explain anything because she had thought everything through the moment she made the decision.

Use the candle treasure [Xiuhuangqin] to continue the remaining fire, so that the human race can break through the limitations of the environment of Xumingtian and practice as before, practice to the seventh level of asking for the way and lay a new foundation!

in this way.

Only then can the Shengxia Dynasty truly continue, and even last for a long time.

The price of all this is just her. Standing in this position, Jiang You realized the dedication of the successive generations of Wahuang...

As someone who has the Kongsang clan's belief in protecting humanity engraved in her bones, she has no regrets at all.

The only person I owe is... Xia Li.

The most beloved woman in her life!

Of course.

It is difficult to have both love and righteousness.

Personal love and the righteousness of humanity are presented before Jiang You, asking him to make a choice... Should he stay with Li'er forever and be a free and unrestrained immortal, regardless of the survival of humanity? Or should he stick to the ideals he had since childhood and forge ahead with the Shengxia Dynasty until his death?

Jiang You hesitated for a long time.

But she finally chose the latter. She was so stupid, hopelessly stupid. She had the chance to live a carefree life for thousands of years, but she chose to follow the path of suffering and hardship for the sake of her own righteousness.

"Actually, I was going to tell you the truth, but..."

Jiang You called Xia Li again, but the latter just stared at her without responding.

After a long silence, Jiang You decided to explain, hoping that Shengsheng could understand what he was thinking.

"...But you were afraid that I would stop you, and you didn't want me to face the suffering with you, so in the end you chose to bear it all alone?"

Shengsheng was so smart that she guessed everything Jiang You was thinking as soon as he started talking.

At this moment, a strong anger rose in her heart, and the fire was the resentment and endless worry about what Youyouzi had done.

It is because I am extremely worried about the other person that I am so angry!

"..."

Jiang You was speechless for a moment. Xia Li guessed everything right, so she had nothing to say.

Facing the extremely angry Shengsheng, she also felt a little guilty and timid, but all her timidity was hidden under her expressionless and cold face.

now.

The girl suddenly shouted angrily, shocking Youyouzi so much that he almost trembled.

“Jiang You——!”

"I don't want to hear the reason or the thoughts you had at that time that caused you to go crazy, and I don't want to hear any explanation or words of atonement. If you want me to forgive you for what happened this time... you only have to agree to one request of mine."

Hear the words.

Jiang You raised his head and looked at Sheng Sheng with confusion.

Although he didn't say anything, his bright dark eyes reflected the girl's figure, and he listened to her words very seriously.

If Shengsheng wasn't angry, she might have been seduced by Youyouzi, who knew she was in the wrong and seemed particularly weak, and would have forgiven her directly.

Unfortunately, this is a matter of principle!

Jiang You used his own life to continue Shengxia's foundation, allowing the middle-aged human race to practice to the seventh level of Taiyi, and even some individual Daluo realms.

If it were any other Shengsheng, she would only express her respect for the other person, but she was almost mad at Youyouzi for doing this.

Even with her state of mind, she had often fallen into unconscious anxiety and had not been able to find peace or tranquility over the past four years.

"Li'er, please speak."

"You agree to it first!"

"Li'er, please speak."

"Promise first!"

"Li'er, please speak."

"You...you repeat Ji you!"

"Repeat Ji?"

Jiang You tilted his head in confusion.

After a long stalemate, Shengsheng was unable to defeat the stubborn Youyouzi, and said angrily.

"From today on, you and Jiang Xuan will train a successor. When it's almost done, the three of us will fake our deaths and escape, and then we will live in seclusion in Penglai, South China Sea."

I learned this trick from Fuxi and Nuwa.

Penglai is an island with a special geographical location and it has its own remnant of the Yuangu formation.

Sheng Sheng discovered this island by chance during one of her outings. She cracked the remaining formation and also gave it the name... According to Sheng Sheng's judgment, this island can be described as a paradise on earth in Xu Mingtian.

She had thought about it before that after the next generation of king ascended the throne, she and Youyou Yingying would live in Penglai forever, living a free and easy life.

Now that Jiang You has done this, Shengsheng decides to advance her trip.

In fact, she also knew that the human race was not yet stable and must not lose the protection of the three of them, but compared to the survival of humanity, she cared more about her own Youyou!

After all, Shengsheng has always been a selfish bad woman.

"Yingji won't agree."

Jiang You was silent for a long time and shook his head.

Shengsheng got angry when he heard it...

"It's you who doesn't want to agree!"

"Jiang Xuan? I told her to go east but she wouldn't go west. I told her to roll over but she wouldn't dare to lie down!"

Yes.

It's this kind of obedience without any bottom line!

Maybe it’s due to the different ideas between the Kuiwei clan and the Kongsang clan. Compared with her sister Jiang You, Yingyingying is extremely obedient to Shengsheng. Even if Shengsheng asks her to die immediately, she won’t even frown.

Chapter 213 Willing to sacrifice everything for her! In a sense, she is no different from Jiang Xuan

"Yes......"

Having a wife who is too smart is actually quite troublesome.

Jiang You nodded helplessly.

"I cannot agree to that."

"From the moment I was embraced as the King of Lie by the people, I have been bearing the fate of the emperors of all generations. Protecting my people, guarding humanity... This is Jiang You's mission. Even if I die, I will never regret it!"

The woman spoke with great righteousness, but after hearing these words, her blood pressure almost shot up.

——Die, die, die, die! Do you want me to be a widow after you die? Believe it or not, I will go out and crown you with a thousand crowns before I come back!

This time, Shengsheng was also angry at this stinky woman Jiang You.

She likes Jiang You, that's why she is so angry.

"...If you die, what about me?"

Although Shengsheng's blood pressure was high, he still endured it. After all, the purpose of today was to persuade Youyouzi to give up the stupid act of burning herself to illuminate the human race.

If it's just an argument, even if you scold Youyouzi until she is speechless, you won't be able to change her stubborn belief.

Shengsheng played a soft card.
