In mid-air, a god with long golden hair fluttering in the wind, his gaze cold and arrogant.
The familiar sun totem mark between the eyebrows first outlines the outline, and then gradually becomes richer and complete.
Perhaps the last god in the plane, she was staring at Ye An and Qi Xi on the ground below as if they were ants.
The oppressive aura, as heavy as a mountain, hit hard like a waterfall from the Nine Heavens. Deep in his heart, the human race's inferiority complex towards the gods arose, making Ye An unable to help but want to kneel on his knees and bow his head as king.
But when he lowered his head, he saw that the eyes of Qi Xi in his arms were gradually blurred, and the sun totem mark between his eyebrows, which symbolized the body of a demigod, had long since disappeared.
This made him raise his head again, gritting his teeth to endure the oppressive power of the god.
In his arms, Qi Xi, with blurred eyes, slowly raised his hand and gently tugged on his collar. His red lips moved slightly and he said weakly: "Ye An... you, go."
However, he couldn't listen to this.
As if feeling Ye An's persistence, Qi Xi used his last strength and said, "I order you... to go."
Ye An frowned, stared at Qi Xi's tired eyes, and said: "Your Majesty... Now you are no longer His Majesty, and you can no longer order me."
"you…!"
Ye An exhaled heavily, then slowly raised his head, staring at the blond god in the sky.
"As the new empress, pray to the moon!"
"What did you do to her?"
Crunch—
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, crisp sounds came from the bones of his body, and the pressure of the gods slowly increased invisibly.
"Hey, so you know me?"
Qi Yuexi's eyes drooped slightly, her eyes indifferent.
"Ignore this matter for the moment, you are just a mere ant calling me by my name... you will be punished."
She raised her delicate white jade hand and waved it gently. The mountain-like pressure suddenly increased, exerting all the pressure on Ye An's back.
Crunch!
Crunch…
There was a violent shaking sound in the bones of his body, as if he was about to be crushed. Ye An only felt a heavy weight on his back, his knees were weak, and he was almost about to kneel down, but he still stood up straight.
"Mortal bodies are tough."
Qi Yuexi stared at Ye An indifferently and said suddenly.
Under the pressure of this god, Ye An stubbornly raised his head again and looked at the golden god in the sky.
Although Qi Xi in his arms was constantly trying to dissuade her, she found it difficult to even speak, let alone dissuade him.
"I just want to ask one thing, what did you do to Qixi?"
Ye An looked solemn and said.
Qi Yuexi was silent for a moment, her golden eyes still indifferent.
"Are you questioning me?"
The moment the words fell—
Crunch!
A sharp and clear sound came from Ye An's bones again, which seemed to annoy Qi Yuexi, and the pressure of divine power on his shoulders continued to increase.
"Master..."
At this moment, Qi Xi bit his red lips and said with all his strength, "Master, please be merciful..."
However, Qi Yuexi just watched indifferently and calmly, without responding to her call.
The heavy pressure became more and more terrifying, the earth made violent sounds, and cracks spread.
Being disrespectful twice in a row has angered Qi Yuexi.
However, at this moment, invisible force suddenly erupted, and violent sounds echoed between heaven and earth -
boom!
The majestic power of the stars surged out of the void, colliding with the ubiquitous pressure of the gods in the air, and immediately dissipated that pressure.
Ye An finally felt better, but there was still some pain in his bones.
"Star power? Interesting."
Qi Yuexi became more interested and said: "What's your name? Oh, yes, yes, the current saint, Ye An..."
She murmured and nodded slightly, with some appreciation in her eyes.
"The third time."
Ye An put away the power of the stars in his body and gasped weakly, "What did you do?"
Just breaking away from this divine oppression has exhausted all his spiritual energy.
When Qi Yuexi heard this, she couldn't help but frowned again, with a hint of displeasure in her eyes. But after a moment, she chuckled and said:
"I just took back something that belongs to me, the inheritance of the divine power of Rimu Xihe. Why, you already know something, why do you need to ask three more times?"
The inheritance of the divine power of Rimu Xihe... belongs to Qi Xi.
This was obvious, but he couldn't control it for a moment, and he still temporarily lost control and asked Qi Yuexi.
Ye An was silent for a while, shook his head slightly and said, "I still have questions."
Qi Yuexi said calmly: "You guy... can you be polite to me?"
"You can kill me for disrespect."
“…”
Qi Yuexi's cold eyes lowered slightly, she was silent for a moment, and said, "You can ask two more questions."
She won't kill Ye An for the time being. There are many reasons...
This is why Ye An was able to break through the pressure of the gods.
It was purely Qi Yuexi who held back her hand.
"When it comes to it, there should be only one question."
Ye An said in a deep voice:
"You are willing to let go of your past identity and become a maid, deconstructing the way of heaven, studying the power of the stars, secretly refining puppets, and developing the Crescent Sect... You have been waiting for a thousand years."
"In order to return to the human world again, you gave up the opportunity to ascend to heaven. Until now, why are you waiting for this day?"
By guessing with hindsight, many clues can be found. For example, Mu Qingxue said, "The writing style of the maid Yue'er is very similar to that of the previous empress." For example, Yue'er could sometimes replace Qi Xi in reviewing memorials... and there are more clues. , Qi Xi is even more aware.
Of course, the most important thing is the words of the Red Emperor of the West Desert: "There has never been a new leader."
It's just puzzling why Qi Yuexi gave up the honor of ascending to heaven and was willing to do so many useless and harmful things.
"Do you really naively think that ascending to heaven is an honor?"
Qi Yuexi gave a rare sarcastic smile and coldly snorted: "After ascending to heaven, I only regret that I escaped too late, so that my consciousness and soul were taken away by heaven..."
Ye An was slightly startled, "Seize it?"
Qi Xi in his arms was extremely tired and about to fall asleep due to the drain of his divine power inheritance. But when I heard this sentence, I also tried my best to listen to the reason.
Qi Yuexi raised her head slightly, with a look of recollection in her eyes, and said seriously:
"The way of heaven is nothing but a scam..."
"At that time, when I passed on my divine power to Xiao Chenxi, my soul entered the palace in the sky."
"It's a magnificent place, spacious and vast. Although the gods are no longer here, the stone statues of the gods will last forever. I thought... I could become one of them, but -"
"But I was swallowed up by a golden light."
"When only the last trace of my godhead and soul was left, I finally realized that the so-called ascension to heaven was empty talk. Sacrificing myself and becoming the fodder for heaven to maintain the laws of the world is the final way back."
