"Who does Emperor Yun think is most likely to impersonate Mengtian?" Lin Yu glanced at Emperor Yun, and withdrew his respect for Yun Qingwu. Instead of answering Emperor Yun's question directly, he asked instead .
"The person most likely to impersonate Mengtian...could it be that Lord Demon Lord is talking about Fang..."
"Not bad!" Lin Yu nodded, and then continued: "Although, judging from the battle report, Fang Zhengyi's behavior is not what Fang Zhengyi did in terms of means, and in terms of strength, Fang Zhengzheng does not have this kind of strength. , However, the descriptions of his words and demeanor are somewhat similar, so I made this guess."
"Guess? Does that have anything to do with the sacrifice of five demon clan deputy captains?" Emperor Yun frowned and asked again.
"To prove this speculation, we have to go to Beishan Village. If I go there, Fang Zhengzheng will naturally not get any advantage, but if it is replaced by five demon deputy captains, they will secretly carry out the young master's order. Let's go in the name of revenge, then..." Lin Yu stopped at the end.
"Master Demon Lord wants all five deputy captains to die?!" After hearing this, Emperor Yun finally understood the meaning of Lin Yu's words.
"Haha..." Lin Yu did not answer any more, but casually picked up the tea cup in front of him, slowly put it to his mouth, and took a small sip: "According to the young master's plan, as long as we can always occupy the 'God' Source', then, there are as many deputy commanders as you want in this mortal realm!"
"But, just for a guess, I have to... Okay, I understand, let's make arrangements now." Emperor Yun wanted to say something more, but after seeing Lin Yu's expression, the words that came to his lips were still Instead of continuing, he gritted his teeth and said.
"Young Master, it seems you haven't expressed your opinion yet?" Lin Yu waved his hand to stop Emperor Yun who had stood up from the chair, and looked at Yun Qingwu again.
At this time, Yun Qingwu stood up, looked outside the hall, bit her lips gently, and showed a very rare hesitation in her expression.
"Qingwu, what do you think?" Emperor Yun saw that Yun Qingwu didn't speak, then looked at Lin Yu who was sitting, and couldn't help but take a deep breath and ask again.
"Father, there is no need to ask my opinion on such a trivial matter. You are the current Demon Emperor." Yun Qingwu slowly retracted her gaze, glanced at Lin Yu, then at Emperor Yun, and said calmly.
"Haha... Okay, then father will make the decision!" Emperor Yun smiled and glanced at the several demon commanders standing below: "Shadow Sword, you can arrange this matter."
"Reporting to Lord Demon Emperor, the young master has not expressed his opinion yet." After hearing Emperor Yun's words, Shadow Sword took a step forward and replied respectfully.
"What do you mean?" Emperor Yun's smile froze.
"Master Demon Emperor, please ask the young master what he wants before making a decision. This is also for the sake of the future of the demon clan. I don't want losses similar to what happened in Beishan Village last time to happen again."
"Are you saying that this emperor sent troops without permission last time?!"
"My subordinates dare not, but the fact is that the Demon Emperor secretly ordered to send demon soldiers across Cangling Mountain without waiting for the young master to return to the city. In the end, my demon tribe lost one deputy commander and hundreds of demon soldiers. "
"You..." Emperor Yun tightened his fist and looked at Lin Yu again subconsciously. Finally, his eyes fell quietly on Yun Qingwu.
Emperor Yun couldn't see many special expressions on Yun Qingwu's face. Apart from calmness, it showed a kind of respect for his father.
Of course, Yun Qingwu didn't speak. In fact, Yun Qingwu rarely spoke after he ordered troops to cross Cangling Mountain two months ago before Yun Qingwu returned to Blood Shadow City.
"Alas..." Emperor Yun sighed, and then he withdrew his eyes from Yun Qingwu and fell back on the Shadow Blade standing in front of him: "I have an edict to abdicate here, which has been drafted for many days. If If Ying Dutong doesn’t mind, you might as well announce it for me.”
"Abdication Edict!" After hearing Emperor Yun's words, several other demon chiefs standing in the demon palace looked at each other. There was not much surprise on their faces, and some were surprised. A joy.
Because Emperor Yun's abdication and Yun Qingwu's succession have long been the expectations of all the demons of the demon clan. Moreover, announcing that Yun Qingwu will succeed the throne at this time is equivalent to eating a pill for the demon clan. Stay focused.
the reason is simple…
The identity of Yun Qingwu, the young emperor of the demon clan, is already known to everyone in the demon clan.
As the young emperor of the demon clan, Yun Qingwu's status is naturally more noble. However, this kind of dignity actually means another layer of meaning in a certain sense.
Dual identity!
So, in this battle for "results", whether Yun Qingwu's position is biased towards the demon clan or the demon clan has become a crucial existence.
The only way to solve this problem is for Yun Qingwu to succeed to the throne. As long as Yun Qingwu becomes the new Demon Emperor, it will naturally be impossible to leave the Demons behind.
"I refuse to inherit the throne. There is no need to discuss this matter!" Yun Qingwu's voice made Shadow Blade, who had already taken a step and was about to speak to read the edict, freeze in place.
But soon, Shadow Blade also reacted, and then he knelt on the ground, stretched out his hands, and touched his forehead to the ground.
"This subordinate is only considering the future of the demon clan. I hope that the young master..."
"Shut up!"
"Little Lord… "
"Whoever dares to mention the matter of succeeding to the throne will be killed without mercy!" As Yun Qingwu finished her words, she turned around and saluted Emperor Yun, and then walked slowly out of the palace.
The surrounding demon clan commanders looked at this scene, and all of them were silent. No demon dared to speak again, but they looked at Emperor Yun who was standing in front of the throne with a complicated look on his face.
The expression on Emperor Yun's face was somewhat different from that of other demons. When he saw Yun Qingwu's leaving back, there was some slight surprise on his face.
He is naturally very clear about the current situation of the demon clan.
Although he still sits on the emperor's throne among the current demons, his power of speech and prestige are all below Yun Qingwu's.
At this point, Emperor Yun actually didn't have much grudge in his heart.
Because the future of the demon clan can no longer be handed over to other demons. Only Yun Qingwu, the only successor, is qualified to sit on the throne of the future demon emperor.
So, in this situation where there is no second choice, the so-called prestige and right to speak are actually not as important as imagined.
After all, Yun Qingwu is destined to become the successor to the Demon Clan's throne. The only question is whether it will be sooner or later.
"Qingwu, my father really wants to pass on to you. The demon clan has always respected the strong. From childhood to adulthood, my father has been studying cultivation. Compared with your wisdom, my father's vision is really It's too short, too short..." After seeing Yun Qingwu step out of the gate of the Demon Palace, Emperor Yun sighed again.
"Lord Demon Emperor, don't worry. Now is indeed not the best time for Young Master to take over the throne. However, it is not too close. I guess that within two years, Young Master will definitely agree to Lord Demon Emperor's request to abdicate."
"Two years?" Emperor Yun looked at Lin Yu. First published on Jiukan Chinese website
"Yes!" Lin Yu affirmed, and then looked at the shadow knife below, which was still lying on the ground: "Isn't Ying Dutong going to make arrangements according to the instructions of the Demon Emperor?"
"I'll make arrangements now!" Shadow Blade's body moved, he stood up from the ground, and then quickly exited the Demon Palace.
Emperor Yun looked at the Shadow Blade who had exited the Demon Palace, and then at Lin Yu who was standing next to him. He couldn't help but reveal a wry smile: "It seems that I will have to sit in this position for another two years."
"In less than two years, Lord Demon Emperor will be free." Lin Yu smiled.
"Haha, it is indeed a relief. By the way, Lord Demon mentioned last time that the demons will encounter five major problems when they break through the holy realm. I am unclear about two points. Can I ask Lord Demon for advice?"
"The young master has gone back to his room to rest. My duty is to protect the safety of the young master. If Lord Demon Emperor has anything to ask, you can come to my room and discuss it later."
"no problem!"
…
Blood Shadow City, in a side hall of the Demon Palace.
Yun Qingwu, who was wearing a snow-white dress, slowly sat down and looked at the guqin in front of her. After a moment of silence, she gently pressed her fingers on the strings.
"Ding!" There was a soft sound, and the strings made a pleasant sound.
It was still the same song. The sound of the piano echoed in the hall and spread outside the hall. Yun Qingwu's expression was as calm as ever, but her eyes seemed to have been looking into the distance, as if she was reminiscing about something, and she seemed to have returned to Xinhe. On top of the boat on the riverside.
Seven days later, Qingchen.
The late autumn sun shines down from the sky, shining over Blood Shadow City, casting a touch of golden color on this ancient city.
Lin Yu, dressed in black, stood beside Yun Qingwu, quietly waiting for Yun Qingwu to finish the breakfast placed in front of him, and then nodded towards the outside of the hall.
Soon, a dusty demon soldier walked in. As soon as he entered the side hall, he knelt down on the ground and stretched out his hands.
"I've met the young master!"
"Get up. Did you see everything in the letter with your own eyes?" After seeing the demon soldier kneeling down, Yun Qingwu also stretched out her hand to signal the demon soldier to get up and speak.
"Yes, everything was witnessed by this subordinate. The subordinate was looking for a hidden location outside Beishan Village, which was blocked by a rock. Therefore, Fang Zhengyi did not find it." The magic soldier heard Yun Qingwu's words. After asking the question, he immediately stood up from the ground and answered.
"Are you sure that all five deputy commanders were killed by Fang Zhengyi alone?" Lin Yu frowned slightly when he heard this.
"OK!" The magic soldier nodded.
"How to determine?" Lin Yu asked again.
"The Traceless Sword was what he was holding in his hand at that time. Although his subordinates did not dare to get too close, they still recognized the Traceless Sword!" the demon soldier affirmed.
"Is it just a sword?" Lin Yu still seemed a little unconvinced.
"There is still strength, the strength of the absolute holy realm, the five vice-captains are all the strength of the reincarnation realm, but under Fang Zhengzheng's sword, there is no chance to resist, even..."
"Even what?"
"I can't even escape. It's too strong. When the five deputy commanders saw Fang Zhengzheng appear, they wanted to escape. However, none of them escaped from Beishan Village."
"I understand, please step back." Lin Yu nodded and did not continue to ask any more questions.
"Yes!" The magic soldier quickly withdrew.
When Lin Yu saw the demon soldiers exiting, he frowned again and looked at the sunlight falling outside the window, seeming to be thinking about something.
I don't know how long it took before Lin Yu finally slowly withdrew his gaze.
"In three days, five deputy capital commanders rushed to Beishan Village. Under such a time, if Fang Zhengzheng is really in the Southern Territory, it is absolutely impossible to come back."
"Yeah." Yun Qingwu nodded.
"But I still think it's a bit impossible. After all, if Meng Tian was really alive, how could there be no news at all for so many years? But..."
"Do you want to say 'Divine Source'?" Yun Qingwu's hand slowly picked up an ancient book on the table, and gently opened the ancient book.
The simple atmosphere is revealed from the pages of the book. Judging from the material of the book, it is obviously an ancient book that has experienced countless years. However, it is strange that the material of this book is obviously very special. Even if it has experienced After countless years of baptism, the writing on it can still be faintly seen.
"If the 'divine source' really happened to descend on Mengtian's tomb, then, under the guidance of the divine source, Mengtian's corpse would be reborn with flesh and blood, and finally, it would be possible for him to be resurrected from the dead." Lin Yu After a moment of silence, he nodded slightly.
"I hope this person is really Meng Tian." After Yun Qingwu said that, she stood up from the chair. Then, holding an ancient book in one hand, she slowly walked to the door of the side hall.
"Young Master, do you also agree with this possibility?" Lin Yu narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard Yun Qingwu's words, and looked out the window again.
"Judging from the time, it is indeed impossible for him to rush back to Beishan Village from the Southern Territory in just eight days." Yun Qingwu did not directly answer Lin Yu's words, but said softly.
"How about I try it myself again, just in case?" Lin Yu thought for a while and then spoke again. At the same time, he tightened his fist slightly.
"No need." Yun Qingwu shook her head, and then looked into the distance: "Lin Ji was defeated, and the layout of the Holy Land was missing. It's time for us to leave Blood Shadow City and go to the Holy Land. .”
"I understand, then I'll get ready now."
"Okay." Yun Qingwu nodded, her expression as calm as water.
Lin Yu quickly exited the side hall and walked into a new stone house built outside the side hall that was entirely made of black stones.
After Yun Qingwu saw Lin Yu enter the stone house, she slowly withdrew her gaze from the distance. Then, she turned around and walked into the house, looking at the guqin placed on the desk.
"Mengtian, is it really the Holy War God Mengtian?" Yun Qingwu's lips moved, and then her fingers subconsciously touched the pendant around her neck, which made her fingers stiffen slightly, because, she There is nothing on his neck now. Inexplicably, a wry smile appeared on Yun Qingwu's lips: "Fang Zhengzheng, you are such a robber!"
