moonlit night

It wasn't until he stepped on the solid ground again from the inside of the turbulent giant clam that Yue Qingchen realized that his legs were a little weak, and the blackness and dizziness in front of his eyes were even worse than before.But Yue Qingchen didn't care about this kind of trivial matter, let alone make it public, so even Jun Changye, who was walking behind, didn't see anything wrong with him.Although the latter was always worried that the previous torment was too much, and that the master would not be able to calm down for a while, so he looked at him frequently, seeing that the other party looked completely unharmed, he felt that he was thinking too much.

At this moment, a familiar voice with obvious surprise suddenly came from not far from the left rear:

"Mozun! Wang Shujun! I just said, you must still be alive!"

It was Leng Beixiao's voice.

The two looked towards the source of the sound together, and the first thing that caught their eyes was the general outline of this illusion.Looking around, Yue Qingchen saw that the place where he landed this time was a very wide platform, surrounded by countless carved beams and painted pillars, turtle heads and tortoises, and the floor tiles were all old-fashioned and atmospheric.But in the middle of the square where Kuanke raced horses, there stood a white jade platform abruptly. It was more like a place of worship than a Xuanwu tomb.

His eyes were briefly attracted by the jade platform, and some indescribable strange feelings welled up in his heart.But the abnormal feeling passed by in a flash, before Yue Qingchen had time to capture it, it disappeared without a trace.

He knew very well that this Xuanwu secret realm was extremely treacherous, and now that he had come here, he had to make up his mind and never act rashly, so he planned to meet up with his own people first, and then discuss countermeasures together.So he turned his head to look for Leng Beixiao, who had called out to the two of them earlier, and saw a lot of mussel remains that had been swept up by the previous vortex piled up in the left rear.And in the middle of the wreckage, there is a tall and straight bamboo in a green dress, like a pole that will never fall down, which seems out of place with the chaotic scene around.

Seeing that Luo Mingche was fine, Yue Qingchen's hanging heart was half relieved, because he knew that Mr. Hengwu was always reassuring in his affairs.Sure enough, in the blink of an eye, the injured Old Crab Essence and the unconscious man were safely placed aside, and the wounds on their bodies had been treated.It's just that the old crab demon was seriously injured and needed rest to recover his previous vigorous energy, and the man was still in a deep coma and did not wake up because of the inhuman torture he suffered before, obviously his vitality was seriously injured.

Yue Qingchen still needs to take a closer look, but a black shadow quickly covered his eyes. He held Jun Changye's shoulder with his big hand, shook it vigorously, and laughed while shaking: "Hey, there are no missing arms and legs. , as expected of the Demon Lord!"

Jun Changye glanced at the elated Demon King, feeling dizzy from being shaken by him, so he broke free from the opponent's clutches the next moment.He patted the shoulders of his clothes, brushed off the ashes brought by Leng Beixiao, and then asked, "Demon King, do you have the Liuliyan in your hand? Take it out now."

Leng Beixiao touched the back of his head, his expression suddenly became a little strange.Instead of taking out the glazed eyes immediately, he talked about him from left to right, trying to evade it: "That...we...actually..."

"What's going on?" Jun Changye quickly sensed something was wrong.

"Oh, forget it, let me tell you the truth." Leng Beixiao sighed, "Actually, when he was inside that clam monster, someone broke that glazed eye. Even though I took it out, I couldn't restore it." , Mozun, Wang Shujun, we definitely can’t rely on it to enter the Xuanwu Tomb.”

Jun Changye was slightly taken aback, obviously he did not expect such a change.Yue Qingchen shook his head, and said: "Yao Wang, it's not just a question of whether or not he can enter the Xuanwu Tomb. The problem is that since the emperor wants this glass eye, no matter who owns it, he will definitely become his target."

"Emperor?" Leng Beixiao wondered, "Where did another emperor come from?"

"Is the emperor Wang Shu mentioned the Zhaoya Emperor on the Jiuchongtian Tower?" Luo Mingche walked over, and when he heard the name, his expression froze at first, and then he said: "He really came."

"What do you mean he really came?" Leng Beixiao became more and more puzzled, "You all knew he was coming? But what does the glazed eyes of this merman have to do with Zhaoya, a fairy clan?"

Yue Qingchen gestured with his eyes, and Jun Changye told Leng Luo exactly what he had seen at sea earlier.He just deliberately omitted matters related to Luo Mingchuan's identity for the time being, so as not to affect Mr. Hengwu's judgment on the situation.

Unexpectedly, Luo Mingche listened to everything, only pondered for a moment, and said to Yue Qingchen: "Wang Shu, come with me."

Yue Qingchen knew that this was probably about housework in the cultivation world, so he couldn't say it in front of foreigners, so he naturally agreed and followed him to the other side of the wreckage.When the figure was completely covered by those broken shells, the two stood still, Luo Mingche turned to look at Yue Qingchen, the worry in his eyes was very obvious.Yue Qingchen was shocked, thinking that he had seen the relationship between himself and Jun Changye, but unexpectedly when the other party opened his mouth, he asked first:

"Wang Shu, do you still remember that in the historical records, ten thousand years ago, on the day when Zhaoya ascended the throne in front of the Xuanxiao Palace, what kind of fortune-telling was made in front of the heavenly immortals?"

Yue Qingchen thought about it for a while, his eyes became calm and long, as if he had traveled through ten thousand years, and then said lightly: "He said that after ten thousand years, the sun, moon and stars will gradually dim, and the world will fall into eternal night. Middle. Hengwu, how do you think this prophecy should be explained?"

Luo Mingche was silent for a moment, and finally said what he was thinking truthfully: "I thought that the so-called eternal night was referring to the chaotic world of ghosts more than twenty years ago. Countless great powers have fallen to protect the clarity of the world, including Qin Shengzun and Pingyang Jun. After that catastrophe, I watched the cultivation world recuperate and get better little by little, thinking that this nightmare was finally over. However, I didn't know until I heard the name 'Jun Changye' that I was completely wrong. That eternal night is far from coming."

"……What do you mean?"

"Wang Shu, don't you understand?" Luo Mingche sighed, looking at the slightly astonished eyes of his former friend, his tone was rare and cruel: "If not, why would the Qin Shengzun treat his own flesh and blood like this? An absurd name? Although I don't want to make such a guess, judging from the current situation, Jun Changye is clearly the reincarnation of the demon god Li Yuan. Previously, although Li Yuan's soul was lucky enough to enter reincarnation, its strength was too weak to lift it up. What a big wave. But now ten thousand generations have passed and ten thousand catastrophes have been experienced. Although his memory has not yet recovered, his strength has reached an unprecedented peak state, and he even pulled out the Sealed God Sword that has been sealed for thousands of years from the Demon Realm. If it is not removed as soon as possible , will become a serious problem, Wang Shu, you must not be soft-hearted anymore."

"No, Hengwu, you're wrong." Yue Qingchen shook his head, his tone resolute and abnormal, "The Yongye that Zhaoya said ten thousand years ago never refers to Jun Changye. Even now I have sufficient reasons to doubt, Whether it was the destruction of the mermaids thousands of years ago, or the chaotic world of ghosts 20 years ago, or whether the demons broke free from the seal and the ghosts made waves again, Zhaoya is the one behind it. Didn’t you see it before? Behind all these chaotic appearances, there is a hand behind to fuel the flames, and that can never be Jun Changye."

However, before the words fell, Yue Qingchen felt regretful, and he realized that the protection of Jun Changye in his words was too obvious.And how smart Heng Wu is, how could he not see such an obvious flaw?

Or, what he said earlier was simply the other party's intentional probing.

But even if he wanted to remedy it now, it was too late.

Sure enough, after hearing Yue Qingchen's words, Luo Mingche only smiled a little, and quickly returned to his usual gentle appearance.He looked at Yue Qingchen who was silent with downcast eyes, sighed again, and said softly: "Sure enough, I am not mistaken, Wang Shu, you have sunk too deep."

Yue Qingchen was silent for a moment, and then responded in a low voice: "I'm sorry... I can't control this kind of thing."

Luo Mingche stared at him fixedly, seeing that there was a struggle in the other's pale eyes, he couldn't bear it, so he shrugged his shoulders, pretending to be relaxed and said: "Well, what right do I have to say about you? Actually, it's not a big deal Yes. Just one thing, what I said earlier was not all to fool you."

Yue Qingchen looked up at him: "Which sentence?"

"That's right, I didn't understand why Qin Shengzun named her flesh and blood 'Long Night', that sentence." Luo Mingche said, "Until I tried to find out the origin of Qin Shengzun. Wang Shu, I Did I never tell you before that the original body of Senior Su was actually a phoenix ten thousand years ago. The phoenix also has another identity, that is, the female official with palm prints in the Taihe Xuyuanshi Palace."

Phoenix?

The dream left by Lin An gradually became clear before his eyes. Yue Qingchen recalled in a trance that he had indeed seen countless times in his dreams, beside the man in white playing the piano, there was a little dozing child lying quietly. phoenix.

"It is said that after the deity fell ten thousand years ago, in order to protect the remnant soul of the deity from harm, she also jumped into the six reincarnations. If all the records in the historical books are true, as the maid of the deity, Senior Su is destined to be with the deity. Li Yuan, the demon who killed the god, had a mortal grudge. Unexpectedly, ten thousand years later, at the moment when the emperor's prophecy was about to be fulfilled, Li Yuan's reincarnation was conceived from her body. She hated Li Yuan deeply , but he was not willing to get rid of his child, so he gave him such a ridiculous name to warn the world."

Speaking of this, Luo Mingche paused, as if he still had doubts, but then he came to a conclusion for what he said just now: "This is the most reasonable explanation I can think of."

"If it's like what you said, Zhaoya's mission to get rid of Li Yuan's reincarnation this time is to get rid of Li Yuan's reincarnation. Then why did he bother to bring Jiuzhe and Fangzhou's reincarnation as companions? And why did he look for Liuliyan?" Yue Yue Qingchen also feels that if Luo Mingche's thinking is followed, although some aspects are suddenly enlightened, but in some aspects, it is also sluggish and difficult.He was about to add the identity of Su Xihe he had just learned into it, and deduce the possibility he had thought of before, that is, Zhao Yaxia came for Lin An's remnant soul, but suddenly heard the sound of falling objects falling heavily The voice came clearly from outside.

And what followed immediately was Jun Changye's urgent call:

"Uncle Ning."
