"If you want to die, just die and lie in your coffin. Why do you have to curse me and make everything go wrong for me?"

"I know. You must be afraid of me. You are afraid that I will achieve political achievements that surpass yours. From now on, you will have to be inferior to me!"

Chop suey, chop suey, chop suey!

Under pressure from all sides, Gulanqi, who had already had some mental problems, exploded directly in his dream.

He knocked Eldino onto the bed with one punch and covered him with the quilt again.

But this time, no matter how he covered or hit him, Eldino never looked like he was going to die.

Every time he moved the quilt aside to check on Eldino's condition, all he saw was a mocking face that didn't change at all.

"Ahhhh-"

In the mixture of fear and anger, Guranki almost collapsed and let out a beast-like scream.

"Kill you, kill you, kill you!"

After a long while, he suddenly woke up from a nightmare. Dany, who was sitting next to him, looked anxious and kept shaking his shoulders with her hands.

"Wake up, wake up, wake up quickly!"

Gulanqi was shocked.

"What happened? Is there another rebellion, or an assassin sneaked into the palace? Where is Broderick? Let him come and protect me, quickly!"

Dani quickly explained: "It's okay, nothing happened outside, it's just..."

"Just what?"

"I noticed that your forehead was covered with cold sweat and your mouth was moving constantly. I was worried that something might happen to you, so I wanted to wake you up."

"..."

Gulanqi calmed down.

Oh, by the way, he was just dreaming. No one rebelled, and no one came to kill him. It was a peaceful night.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm fine, don't worry."

Dany nodded.

I'm glad that Gulanqi is okay. In fact, she doesn't have any love for Gulanqi, but if something happens to Gulanqi, she will not be able to enjoy herself as a queen.

But before Dany could completely relax, Gulanqi suddenly raised his head and stared at her.

"I didn't talk in my sleep just now, did I?"

Dany stiffened.

What is this suffocating feeling like being entangled by a python?

She shook her head in horror.

"It's fine if you don't."

Gulanqi withdrew his gaze.

His face looked calm, but his heart was already surging with turmoil.

Just because Dany said there was no, did it really mean there was no such thing?

Even if there really isn't one, what if there is one in the future?

He couldn't allow anyone to appear next to him when he was sleeping, otherwise once the news that he had killed Eldino with his own hands leaked out, he would be completely finished.

As for Dany... kill her?

No, this is definitely not possible. Dany is Sword Lady's disciple, and she must not be killed easily.

Stay away from her for now.

Grunge has found an excuse to distance himself from Dany, his queen.

The next morning, he went to see the Pope of the Unification Church and, on the grounds that he was not feeling well, asked the Church to guide him to pray to Vittis, asking Vittis to bless him and Vestapa, who had been having bad luck recently.

During the prayer process, he needs to abstain from sex, which naturally means he cannot live with Dany.

Of course, Gulanqi did this not just for show, his real purpose was to ask the Pope of Guiyi Church to help him exorcise the "ghost".

This "ghost" refers to the "lingering" Eldino.

At first he even wanted to ask the necromancer for help. To be honest, this action was a bit of a hellish joke, after all, part of the responsibility for Eldino's death should be attributed to the necromancer.

But Gulanqi, who was praised as "very filial" in the nursery rhyme, wouldn't care about these things.

The main reason why he changed his mind was that he felt the necromancer was too difficult to control. If the necromancer plotted against him while helping him exorcise ghosts, he would not be able to react at all.

Just when he was in distress, he thought of Guiyi Sect.

The Pope of the Unification Church is extremely talented in handling religious affairs, but exorcism is obviously not in his skill set.

However, in order to please Gu Ranqi, he still took the responsibility and said that he had a way to help Gu Ranqi exorcise the ghost.

The two hit it off immediately and staged a ghost-exorcism drama disguised as a blessing in the Palace of Vistapa.

In fact, even if Gulanqi was not doing any exorcism, but was praying wholeheartedly, this would still seem outrageous to outsiders.

After all, over the years, the main trend of the Kingdom of Vistapa has been to suppress religion. Praying is allowed, but the person in charge must be the king himself.

Well now.

Come on, come on.

It is much better to let Gulanqi pray in the palace than to let him cause trouble everywhere.

The Kingdom of Vistapa is now like a big ship with a hole in it. It cannot withstand any unnecessary trouble. The only way to get back on the road is to stop the ship on the shore and repair it slowly.

Some people thought about killing Guranki directly and replacing him with a new ship to continue their journey, but the power held by Guranki was much greater than that of Polamene, who also supported religion.

He had fought in battles himself and won several victories, which gave him a group of supporters in the army. Even if the army no longer supported him, he still had the new knights led by Broderick, so it would be too difficult to kill him.

During the month-long prayer period, Gulanchi prayed non-stop every day and even stopped eating meat, hoping to show his sincerity by abstaining from killing.

During this period, the turbulent Kingdom of Vistapa finally became much quieter.

First, the domestic rebellion was completely put down, and several famous bandits died at the hands of the Knights. Then there was news that the southern city-states were in civil strife, and the unbreakable alliance was broken on the spot.

Gulanqi thought that this was a breakthrough in praying and exorcising ghosts, and for this he specially commended the Pope of Guiyi Church.

But before he could get a few good night's sleep, Eldino appeared in his dream again and laughed at him loudly, saying, "It's done. Even if you get more compensation afterwards, you are still a scum who killed your father."

Gulanqi was so angry that his defense broke down. It was probably because he was still thinking about the effect of Guiyi Sect, otherwise he would have killed the Pope of Guiyi Sect on the spot.

However, the Pope of the Unification Church was fine, but several maids in the palace were in trouble.

Just because they passed by Gu Ranqi's residence, Gu Ranqi killed them on the grounds that they eavesdropped on his sleep talking.

"Trash, it's all trash!"

The mental illness turned into a physical illness, and with the doctor's treatment, Gulanqi survived.

Including the previous time he fell into the water, this was the second time he felt death, which made him have an almost twisted desire for life.

He cannot die. If he dies, he will not be able to surpass Eldino, and Eldino will never be able to make a comeback!

In his anger, he suddenly thought of what he had overheard outside Eldino's room a long time ago.

Eldino told him that Sword Princess was an immortal.

Live forever.

If he could get the secret of immortality from Sword Lady, then all the problems would no longer be problems for him, and he would no longer have to blame Sword Lady for training up Xiludi, the bitch who ruined his plans.

Thinking of this, Gulanqi went to find Dany excitedly.

He has hardly contacted Fiora recently. It would be better for him to let Dany act as a middleman and plead with her before he goes to her to ask for the secret of immortality.

"Master is not here."

"Not here?"

"She left Vestapa a few days ago and went to Treya to find that old woman, Xiludi."

Dany said sourly.

Among all the disciples, the master always thought of Xiludi first, and she had been dissatisfied with this for a long time.

"what?!"

Gulanqi's expression suddenly changed.

Xiludi, it’s Xiludi again. Even at this time, I still go to see Xiludi.

Anger rises.

After a long time, Gulanqi finally suppressed his anger.

Don't be angry, you must not be angry. He is still counting on Sword Lady to teach him the way to immortality.

As long as Sword Girl could teach him the secret of immortality, he would not only go to visit Sylvia, but he would also be able to bear it even if she cheated on him in front of him.

"If she comes back, let me know immediately."

Gulanqi waited for a month.

In fact, Alsophila knew that going to see Shiludi at this time would cause Guranki's dissatisfaction, but Shiludi had been unwell recently due to years of fighting, so she hurried over to take care of Shiludi.

This matter made Xiludi feel very embarrassed. She was already not young anymore, but she still needed an even older master to take care of her. It was really embarrassing.

As soon as Alsophila returned to Vestapa, Grunge brought Dany to see her.

After sending Dany away, Grunch played the emotional card again. He cried about how difficult his life was and said that he still had infinite ambitions in his heart, but his health had been deteriorating recently and he was afraid that he would die before realizing those ambitions.

【What do you want to say? 】

Alsophila was full of doubts.

Gulanqi made a plan to reveal his true intention. He prayed to the Alsophila tremblingly, hoping that the Alsophila could teach him how to keep healthy.

[If you want to be healthy, isn't it enough to exercise every day? 】

Gulanqi smiled and said, "Not only is it about good health, but also... I hope I can live longer, so that I can have more time to realize my ambition, which is immortality. Lady Jian Ji, can you..."

He had said this much, and Alsophila immediately understood what he meant.

Live forever.

Did you get that from Eldino?

She didn't mean to blame Eldino, after all, she told Eldino herself this time.

The problem now is that she can't teach Gu Ranqi the method of immortality. Not to mention that she doesn't understand why she can live forever. Even if she understands, she can't tell others because it will cause turmoil in the whole world.

Alsophila spoke frankly: "I don't know how to achieve immortality, so I can't help you."

Gulanqi continued to beg, but no matter what he said, Alsophila's answer was always the same sentence, and at most she would add that everyone would die, including her, and told him not to think too much.

He was finally irritated.

The dissatisfaction he had felt towards Alsophila over the years reached its peak at this moment, and he regarded Alsophila as an enemy on the same level as Eldino.

Although he was angry, Gulanqi was still very clear about the difference in strength between himself and Alsophila, so he did not attack on the spot.

It was not until he returned to his residence that he roared in anger.

"What about the guardian angel of Xueta? Is this how you, the guardian angel, protect me?"

"That's right. You only have Bernal and Eldino in your eyes. You look down on me. You look down on me just as much as Eldino does. I will prove it to you. I will do better than all of you!"

Alsophila knew very well that her answer would make Guranki furious, but what could she do at this time?

The emergence of cracks is inevitable.

In fact, if it weren't for the old friendship, she should have just driven out Gulanchi, who had plunged Vistapa into turmoil, as she had agreed with Bernal.

But, after all, she is not a cruel person.

She can neither be a hero who saves the world nor a king who can bring happiness to the world. She will always live on the back of history.

It is said that if God wants to destroy someone, he must first make him crazy. Gulanqi is already a little crazy now.

Unable to gain any benefit from Alsophila spinulosa, he asked Guiyi Sect to help him find a way to achieve immortality.

Under the reward, there must be a brave man.
