Ali spoke these last words in a very decisive and loud voice, so much so that even the residents of Xingdu outside the small courtyard could hear them.
But after hearing what A'li said, the residents were not excited, as if they had already known this would be the result.
The two-headed Jie Xiong man, both male and female, sighed at the same time, and rarely did they mock or quarrel with each other.
Several feathered people lowered their heads, with their wings slightly folded in front of them, and their expressions were gloomy.
Even the ape-man, who did not get along well with these residents, put down the charcoal in his hand, looked down at his feet, and did not raise his head for a long time.
Only Old Xuan, who was standing under the shade of the tree, seemed unaware of what was happening in the small courtyard. He just stood there blankly, gnawing on the branches in his hands.
In the room, Su Lie raised his head, looked at the little girl in front of him and said, "After you die, will the Star City return to its original state and continue to exist?"
Ahri shook his head and said, "No, if my guess is correct, the star city will disappear and this world will no longer exist."
Tian Yang vaguely guessed the girl's purpose, but still asked: "What good will this do for you?"
Ah Li smiled and said, "We will be relieved, not only us, but also Lady Qingluan. She has endured so much pain for us, and none of us want her to continue to suffer like this."
"She used to be so kind and benevolent, but now she has become twisted and crazy. She is suffering more than anyone else."
"We hope that she can be freed."
Su Lie said calmly: "If Xingdu disappears, what about the people outside?"
Ahri raised his little head and looked outside the door: "They, including you, entered the Star City in the state of spiritual will. So after the Star City disappears, your spirits will return to your bodies."
"As for them... their bodies either no longer exist or have turned into monsters..."
Ah Li clenched her small fists: "But even so, we have decided to do this! Lady Qingluan has sacrificed too much for us. Now, it is time for us to sacrifice for her!"
"I understand. That is to say, only when the stars disappear can we escape from this world. Apart from this method, is there no other way?" Su Lie looked at the little girl and asked.
Ah Li nodded: "If it was before, as long as she got the consent of Master Qingluan, she would send you back. But now, she will not do that. She imprisoned herself in the bottom of the dream, in the 'Infinite Maze'. There is a dream maze where she imprisoned herself, and even she can't find the exit."
"She has become crazy and twisted. She is in that maze, so she can't send you back. And I don't have the ability to do that."
"So if you want to leave here, this is the only way."
"kill me!"
Tianyang frowned and was about to say something when he heard his father say, "Are you sure that Xingdu will disappear after you die?"
"this... "
Ahri hesitated: "I'm not sure either. After all, I am only a part of Lord Qingluan's power and personality. But if I die, Lord Qingluan will definitely be severely hurt. In this case, Xingdu may disappear in a few days."
Su Lie shook his head: "Since you are not sure, I refuse to do this."
"I think it would be more efficient to go directly to the Infinite Labyrinth and kill your crazy and twisted Lord Qingluan."
"She is the real owner of the dream. If she dies, the dream will disappear."
Ahri cried out, "No, that's too dangerous!"
"The Endless Labyrinth is affected by the adults, and many terrifying monsters will be projected inside. And the adults themselves are powerful enough. You should know that you can use your own power in the dream, which is given by the adults. How are you going to use the adults' power to kill her?"
Tian Yang coughed and said, "In this case, you are also a part of the Dream God. Normally, we should not be able to kill you."
Ah Li was stunned for a moment, her face was a little confused, as if she had never thought about this question. After a moment, she said: "You can kill the nightmare old man. That terrible old man was born from a part of the adult's ability to control nightmares. He can also be regarded as a part of the adult."
"I think since you can kill him, you should be able to kill me too. So, if you go to the Endless Maze, is it really possible to kill the Lord?"
Su Lie smiled slightly and said, "That's right. You are under the protection of the Dream Goddess and have never thought of fighting against her, so you naturally think it is impossible to resist her power."
"But we are different. We have killed alien gods before. We know and believe that those things can be killed."
"So, take us to the Endless Labyrinth. We will free the Dream God and, at the same time, free you!"
Ahri's eyes sparkled slightly, and she nodded vigorously: "Then you should rest for a day or two. I need to make some preparations before I can take you to the Endless Maze."
"good."
So, A'li called a resident who looked relatively normal and asked him to take Tianyang and his son downstairs to rest.
Coming to a quiet wooden house, Tianyang placed "Wild Fire" in the corner and opened the window.
There is emptiness outside the window, the night sky is clear and quiet in the distance, snowflakes are drifting, and there is a feeling of silence between heaven and earth.
"I never thought that there is a world that exists in dreams. This time I have really broadened my horizons." Su Lie also put Juque aside, sat on a wooden chair, leaned back, looked at the roof and said.
Tian Yang smiled and said, “Just now I thought you were really going to kill that little girl.”
"My sword only kills the evil."
Su Lie scratched his messy hair and said, "However, if I can leave this world immediately by killing that little girl, I don't mind going against my principles, although that may leave me with psychological barriers in the future."
"But this dream world is too dangerous. The cornerstone of its existence is the Dream God, and that adult is now crazy and twisted..."
After a pause, Su Lie jumped up and said, "Let's not talk about this. How are you using your 'phase'?"
Tian Yang nodded slightly: "I have been able to use it skillfully, and combined with my own 'phase', I have created a secret technique."
Su Lie laughed and said, "That's good. As long as you find your own 'phase', at a certain time, when the opportunity arises, you will be able to break through and awaken your own 'qi'."
After saying that, Su Lie's ears moved slightly, and he caught the undisguised footsteps coming from outside. A moment later, the little girl A'li came, followed by several residents of Xingdu. They brought food to Tianyang and the others.
Asking people to put down their things, Ah Li waved her hand and several residents retreated respectfully.
"After Lady Qingluan created me, she asked me to lead everyone to seek refuge and brought the things she found in the Eternal Night World."
"These things are very strange. They are the only real objects that exist in Xingdu. The fact that they can enter dreams in their physical form is enough to show how extraordinary they are."
The little girl turned her hand over, and something gradually appeared in her hand: "You are willing to help, willing to take the risk to help Master Qingluan free. I can't think of anything to repay you, so I will give them to you."
"After the Star City disappears, these things will be ownerless anyway, so I might as well give them to you, but I can't guarantee that you can take them away."
As he spoke, two light yellow stone slabs appeared in Ah Li's hands. Their edges were rough and irregular, and there were slight cracks on the surface.
But when they saw them, Tian Yang and Su Lie were both slightly shocked at the same time, and the father and son shouted in unison: "Dusk Slate?"
"Huh?"
"Ehhhh..."
Ah Li was very surprised and asked, "How do you know they are the 'Dusk Slabs'?"
Tian Yang and Su Lie exchanged glances before saying, "We have seen it before and know that this kind of stone tablet records the mysteries of the universe."
Ah Li nodded: "Lady Qingluan said the same thing. She pinned her hopes for the survival of Xingdu on this stone slab, hoping to find a way to save Xingdu from it."
"For this reason, she ventured into the world of eternal night. Unfortunately, although she found the stone tablet, she did not find a way to save Xingdu."
She sighed, placed the two slabs of stone on the table, and left the cabin with a gloomy look on her face.
Except for seeing two slates collected by his father in the "grave", Tianyang had never seen the Dusk Slate again. However, he did not expect that he would get two slates in the dream world after accidentally entering it.
At that moment, the father and son didn't even bother to eat. They each picked up a piece of stone and put their hands on the stone slab to see if they could get any information.
Tianyang put his hand on the stone slab and could feel its roughness. Just like last time, he felt nothing at the beginning, but after a while, some information naturally emerged in his mind.
'... ... ... They celebrated, which was normal, because the newly discovered universe was still young and no gods had been born yet. They announced loudly at the gathering that they would connect the two dimensional universes, migrate to the other side, become the gods of that universe, and become the masters of all things. But would it be that easy? '
Tian Yang's mind was shaken, and he took his hand off the stone tablet. "In order to escape the eternal night, the gods of the Twilight Universe tried to connect the two different dimensional universes. They tried to migrate. Have they succeeded?"
He calmed himself down, put his hand back on the stone slab, and read the second message.
'... ... ... Haha, they are arguing again. The radicals have already started to formulate a rigorous plan and intend to put it into action. But the conservatives think it is too dangerous and that there are too many uncertainties in the radicals' plan. However, the conservatives' concerns are justified. They point out that another universe has completely different energy and laws. If one is not well prepared, even if one is a god, will he be able to adapt to a brand new universe instead of being destroyed by the brand new laws?'
