The Demon Emperor didn't ask any further questions, and swung out a stream of black air, which condensed into a black ball on top of Yetong's head. During the rotation, drops of extremely pure and strong dark force condensed, dripped, and landed on Yetong's body. Every point of dark force fell, Yetong's body would tremble slightly, and then a ray of dawn force would radiate from her body, which would be annihilated immediately.
The two dukes watched from a distance, inadvertently showing admiration. Every bit of dark force is extremely refined and pure, and can almost be regarded as the embodiment of the source of darkness. If they can get a drop, their understanding of dark force will inevitably reach a new level, and then break through the current level bottleneck.
After seven consecutive drops of dark force, the black ball finally disappeared, and the voice of the Demon Emperor also showed a little fatigue, it seems that the consumption is not small.
"That's all I can do. In addition, I will postpone the opening of the second door for a month, and I hope you can recover by then."
Yetong said: "One month is enough, there is no need to wait longer."
"I hope so. During this period of time, it's best to clean up those things that may put you in danger again. Although this is just a projection, it still consumes a lot of energy last time."
"I'll think about it." Yetong's voice was cold.
The Demon Emperor didn't force it, he just reminded: "Don't forget what you promised."
"Of course I will."
The endless darkness dissipated, the coercion disappeared, and the projection of the Demon Emperor was gone. The two dukes saw sweat on their foreheads, and they both felt like they had narrowly escaped death. The devil emperor started at the end of the day, and his image in the dark holy mountain is the most gentle and humble. However, this kind of darkness, the feeling of life and death, for the two dukes, they really don't want to experience it again.
A duke came to Yetong and said, "Your Highness, is there anything we can help you with?"
"Not yet. But some of the soldiers here are dying and need treatment."
"Okay, I'll do it now." After the duke agreed, he couldn't help it, and said again: "Your Highness, every word of His Majesty the Demon Emperor has a deep meaning, if you still have any involvement with the human race , it's better to end it sooner."
Yetong said coldly: "When is it your turn to tell me what to do?"
The duke was not angry, but said: "After all, we are responsible for protecting you, but there is nothing we can do if the same thing happens again. It is so important to open the door to the new world, but now it is stuck on the second door. Alas, Even if I don’t say it, you should also know that there have long been voices of dissatisfaction in the parliament.”
Yetong said coldly: "Anyone who is dissatisfied can come to me!"
The other duke Ben was listening quietly, and couldn't help persuading: "Your Highness, of course you are not afraid, and they have no ability to do anything to you. But what the Demon Emperor said is actually true. It's no longer a secret that many people are also suspicious in that direction. Many old guys have waited thousands of years for the new world. Now their lives are coming to an end, and they can do anything crazy. I heard that, Some people are already planning to start from the human race and cut off your connection there."
A cold light flashed in Yetong's eyes, and he said, "What connection do I have over there? How are they going to cut it off?"
The duke said tactfully: "I don't know about that. But since the human race can find you here, they should also be able to find their target there. As for whether there is a real connection, you know, sometimes Doing something doesn't require double-checking. I think if something like this happened again today, they would have a stronger reason to take action."
The killing intent in Yetong's eyes gradually subsided, but she felt more dangerous. She said word by word: "Then tell those old guys that I have never been threatened! If they really feel that they have lived too long , I can help them too."
The Duke sighed softly and said: "Your Highness, this is meaningless, and they don't have to target you. On the contrary, we really think that you should seriously consider the suggestion of His Majesty the Demon Emperor. After all, the human race is too insidious, and they want to kill you. Not once or twice, and the methods are useless. Even the King of Fingers has taken action, you escaped this time, so what about next time?"
Yetong was expressionless, but just said something to understand.
The two dukes glanced at each other, knowing that the words had come to an end, so they went down to treat the wounded. On the ruins of the castle of Theseus, the elite warriors of the blood clan fell to the ground in disorder, unable to get up at all, and even some strong knights were dying.
The terrifying power that the Finger King erupted in an instant was simply not something these low-ranking vampires could bear, and the appearance of the Demon Emperor's projection was to crush them again. The Demon Emperor only cared about Yetong's injuries, and he didn't care about the life and death of these low-ranking vampires, let alone restraining himself from such trivial matters as avoiding accidental injuries.
Yetong's residence was destroyed, so he moved into the underground of the castle. In the center of the underground hall here, a heavy and huge cast iron coffin rotates.
The iron coffin was soaked in a pool of blood, and the blood in the pool was calm and calm, exuding a faint sweet fragrance. The iron coffin blood pool in the Castle of Theseus is quite famous, and it is the key to supporting the strength of the strong in wartime. When the human race awakened and Taizu led the founding fathers to occupy the ancient castle, the first thing he did was to destroy the iron coffin blood pool. After the blood race regained the ancient castle, it took a lot of painstaking efforts to rebuild it.
Entering the hall, Yetong said to the two viscounts following him, "Go out and wake me up in three days."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
The heavy gate of the underground palace closed behind Yetong, she slowly took off her armor, and looked down at her flawless body. The wound on her abdomen has miraculously healed, but where the original injury was, the new flesh and blood are almost transparent, and it can be seen that the newly resurrected bones inside are only as thick as a finger, and they are far from growing to their intended extent. This is just flesh and blood, and the damaged internal organs have not had time to repair.
On the skin, there were still faint flames flickering, and Yetong frowned slightly, as if being burned by the flames was very painful. This is the flame transformed by the remaining dawn force, like a maggot attached to the bone, burning forever. Even the Demon Emperor's means could not completely drive it away.
Nighteye stuck her fingertips to the flames, and a little spark attached to her fingertips, burning continuously, trying to devour her flesh and force.
She put her fingertips in front of her eyes, quietly looked at the jumping sparks, and after a while, she said to herself with some self-deprecation: "It's really a waste of money. Do you want me to die like that? Hehe, I don't seem to have provoked you yet. Woolen cloth."
This Dawn Flame was so difficult to deal with, it was naturally not an ordinary method. To add to it the characteristics similar to the curse of the dark race, not only would it consume extremely rare and rare materials, but also Nighteye's own soul fragments. When Li Fengshui used the soul mill to torture her when she fell into the hands of the military, he probably collected some fragments of her soul.
But now, with Nighteye's reawakening, the value of these old soul fragments has increased infinitely, immeasurably. Since the empire is willing to invest a little soul fragments, and add curse attributes with materials equivalent to super-grade original crystals, it is really determined to win.
It's just that what kind of deep hatred is there to strike such a heavy hand? She is not the only one who wants to prevent the opening of the new world gate, and she is by no means the best one to deal with. Could it be that the only reason is because of the old fetters, because of the little nostalgia deep in her heart, and the little kindness and trust in the human race? So, she is the easiest one to attack
Yetong blew out a stream of blood and extinguished the fire on his fingertips. And the fire in his abdomen was still too strong to be extinguished at this moment. Only after three days and three nights of immersion in the iron coffin blood pool can it be completely extinguished.
The Finger King made exceptionally good preparations for this blow. He may not have expected that Yetong had grown to the point where he could barely block his blow, but he did not forget to prevent accidents either.
This inexhaustible dawn flame only needs a short while to burn her flesh and blood, thus killing her completely. Sending the remnants of her blood relatives before her awakening as assassins is to defuse her vigilance, let her easily step into the trap, and make it impossible for the two dukes who are in charge of guarding to react in time.
Perhaps the only mistake of the Finger King was that he didn't expect the Demon Emperor to appear, and he appeared so quickly. Almost as soon as the change occurred, the projection of the Demon Emperor had already descended.
Although the Demon Emperor himself does not know which continent he is on, most of them are in the traditional territory of the demon descendants. It is not a small consumption for the Demon Emperor to cross such a distant space and go deep into the blood race's native land. The one month he said was not only reserved for Yetong, but also for himself.
Yetong opened the iron coffin, stepped into it, and lay down slowly. When the blood soaked his face, there seemed to be a faint sigh.
Qin Lu, the imperial capital.
In a secluded manor on the outskirts, an old man is sitting on a rock and fishing by the stream. The long fishing line is constantly floating with the flow of the stream, and the afternoon sun shines through the treetops and sprinkles on the water surface. A few small fish in the stream are moving back and forth nimbly, occasionally touching the bait, but they will not bite easily.
The old man squinted his eyes slightly, as if he was asleep or awake, and was wandering among the mountains and rivers, when suddenly he heard a snap, the fishing line broke in two, and a wisp of black air went up along the broken line, wrapped around the fishing rod, and rushed towards the old man.
Only then did the old man open his eyes, and the flames on the fishing rod flashed, covering the black air and burning continuously. Although the flames were fierce, the wisp of black air was extremely tenacious, and it took a long time to burn before it was completely dissipated.
This time, the old man finally sat up straight, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said to himself, "It turned out that he made the move himself. Could it be that that person is more important than he thought?"
"Did you catch anything today?"
The old man didn't turn his head, and said: "You are not in the court, what are you doing here? There are many important events in the world, but they are not yet neglected."
Standing behind the old man is Emperor Hao. At this moment, he was dressed in commoner clothes, and his aura was restrained, just like an ordinary farmer, and he could not tell at all that he was the supreme existence of the Great Qin Empire. He stood casually, not caring about the old man not looking back at him from the beginning to the end, and not caring about the old man's almost admonishing words.
