Why couldn't he be happy no matter whether he was Duanmu Jinhong or Duanmu Qingchen? Now, he finally understood that it was his own heart.
When he came back to his senses, Lian Youyou was no longer in front of him, and Yuchi Yanxia was looking at him with worry in her eyes: "Chen'er, are you okay?"
Duanmu Jinhong was stunned again. Didn't Yuchi Yanxia know his true identity? So, when he faced Taotie just now, he told him to be a good emperor.
But at this moment, Yuchi Yanxia seemed to know nothing and called him Chen'er.
Yuchi Yanxia saw the confusion and bewilderment in his eyes, but her expression was calm: "Although I don't understand how you exchanged..." When Yuchi Yanxia said this, she glanced at Lian Youyou who was busy catching the ferocious beasts. She must be the only woman in the world who had such a skill. She sighed, turned back and looked at Duanmu Jinhong again, "But this must be Chen'er's own will. Since you are Chen'er now, then be a good prince!" After Yuchi Yanxia finished speaking, she sighed and turned away. Her expression showed that she was blaming her son for not being able to live up to his expectations!
Dunmu Jinhong clenched his fists and lowered his head.
The sound of artillery fire continued, "Boom, boom." The artillery fire at this time seemed to hit Duanmu Jinhong's heart hard. He used to want everything, but now, he became confused. What exactly did he want
He looked at the smoke-filled world and the figures fighting against the beasts. Lian Youyou's divine power could easily crush him to death and could easily help Duanmu Qingchen get rid of him, but she didn't. Instead, she asked him to exchange with Duanmu Qingchen in exchange for the life they each wanted.
Obviously, Yuchi Yanxia had recognized their disguise, but Yuchi Yanxia put the overall situation first and volunteered to continue playing the role of mother and son with him. Didn't she want her son to be the emperor
He looked down again, and saw that the Yuchi army was determined to defend this last line of defense. They were brave and fearless, willing to sacrifice their lives for the Qian Dynasty and the people behind them. What about Duanmu Jinhong? He was trapped in his own heart, obsessed with the throne.
He suddenly realized that he could not be a good emperor at all, because he was obsessed with the chair, not the responsibility of the king behind the chair, and not the responsibility of protecting the people and the dynasty behind the chair!
Just now, when the beast jumped in front of him, he was afraid and terrified. He thought he would be as calm as before, but when the beast really jumped in front of him and opened its bloody mouth towards him, he was so scared that he couldn't even move.
After surviving the catastrophe, he suddenly realized that he had actually lost a lot, a lot. He lost his father's true love for Duanmu Jinhong, lost his mother, lost the woman he loved, and also lost his true freedom.
He once stood on the top of a mountain, overlooking the entire capital, and ambitiously wanted to rule the world. However, when the world was truly in his hands, he lost everything except the throne.
He even almost caused Duanmu Qingchen to lose her mother. What on earth was he doing? !
"Wake up!" Yuchi Yanxia suddenly shouted at him. He looked at her and saw the severity in her eyes. "Don't forget your current responsibilities! Only if you stay calm, your soldiers will have the will to fight! Because on the battlefield, you are their spiritual support. Cheer up quickly!"
Duanmu Jinhong opened his eyes and immediately straightened his expression, suppressing all the chaotic emotions in his mind. He held his head high and regained his composure. He was not only a prince now, but also a marshal in this battle. How could he show a look of fear of the enemy
Yuchi Yanxia nodded with satisfaction, and once again stood on the tower with her head held high, shouting: "The beasts are already lingering, everyone should not relax - annihilate them in one go -"
"Yes—" Everyone reloaded shells faster, making the dim yellow fog wall thicker and thicker.
Lian Youyou looked at the red sun gradually setting in the west. The ground under her feet was already covered with animal corpses. Looking around, the road from Liangzhou was already covered with animal corpses, as if it had been dyed black. No trace of the original ground could be seen anymore. This was the cruelty of war.
The remaining dozen or so giant beasts are still struggling to survive.
"Cover them!" Lian Youyou immediately shouted at the Fat Buddha, who immediately threw out the pot, and the black pot covered the ferocious beasts with a "bang". The ferocious beasts struggled around in the black pot, and now everyone just had to catch the turtle in the jar.
From a distance, Yuchi Shaolang and Yuchi Jun were also chasing after them. The corpses of the ferocious beasts covered the ground, making it difficult for them to move forward.
Yuchi Shaolang and Yuchi Jun finally reunited with the people from Jiumen, but there was no time to celebrate the victory because there were still ferocious beasts that had not yet been annihilated!
Suddenly, a ferocious beast came out from the gap in the black pot. The bigger the black pot became, the bigger the gap became, so the fat Buddha could not make the black pot too big, as that would allow the ferocious beast to escape.
The beast was extremely agile. After it emerged, it jumped directly into the woods nearby!
Seeing this, Yuchi Shaolang wanted to chase and kill him, but suddenly Lian Youyou flew down and stopped him: "It's up to him to find the female beast. You stay here to clean up, and I'll go catch the female beast!"
"Yes! Master!"
Lian Youyou turned around and nodded to everyone, then flew up. Tracking in the air was more covert and would not be discovered by the ferocious beasts.
Fierce beasts are very protective of their mothers, and once they find someone following them, they will confuse the enemy. This time, the Taotie was completely defeated because they encountered Lian Youyou, who was quite experienced in dealing with them. If it were just the Nine Gates, I'm afraid they would have been killed long ago!
Because to mortals, Taotie is an army of demon beasts! Even the immortals of Kunlun and Penglai, or the demons of the underground city, cannot deal with Taotie in time. Maybe they can find a way to fight against Taotie in the end, but by then Taotie will have occupied the entire planet, because humans who have no power to resist are the best food for them to expand their army.
The design principle of Taotie comes from this, to devour the weakest but most numerous creatures on the planet to expand their numbers and make the ultimate powerful race lose in front of them.
After Lian Youyou flew up, Lin Tingjun also flew up. He was not human, so he did not have the aura of a human. The blood sword just allowed him to keep up with Lian Youyou.
"You should know that Taotie is just an appetizer." Lin Tingjun flew beside Lian Youyou, and a ray of sunset finally penetrated the gloomy sky.
Lian let out a long sigh: "Huh - now I can only gamble that this is a dud and didn't go off."
"What if it rings?" Lin Tingjun glanced at him, the blood-red light of the setting sun reflected in his black eyes.
Lian Youyou's expression suddenly sank: "The only way is to... restore the divine body!" When her eyes narrowed, the cold light was like a sword. (To be continued)
