After one obeisance, the Federation bowed its head respectfully and withdrew.

During this process, he could feel the eyes of the Seventh Prince sitting on the high part of the hall was always on him, so he didn't try to hide his expression at all.

Whether it was reluctance, relief, and ultimate calmness, they were all fully revealed. It was not until he left the hall and walked a long way that he stood up straight again and walked towards his residence in the capital with a smile on his face.

When he met a familiar colleague on the road, he would greet him gently.

He didn't hold himself back because of his second-level cultivation of returning to the void, and he couldn't see the slightest airs on his body. From the beginning to the end, his expression was gentle and elegant, until he returned to his residence, lit an incense, and sat there Take out the chessboard and play chess leisurely by yourself.

But if you look carefully, among the smoked birds, there is a natural coldness in the depths of their eyes, like a poisonous snake hidden in the belly of a lamb.

"On the first day I came here, I brought up the issue of the cauldron with His Highness the Seventh Prince, but at that time he didn't care... But today he suddenly summoned me to bring up the matter again..."

There was a gentle smile on the corner of Zongmeng's mouth. This was his instinct. Every time he thought about a problem, he always had a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"The warlord brought tens of thousands of soldiers, and Ling Yun... lost contact in Fenghai County!"

"At this moment, His Royal Highness asked me to fetch the furnace cauldron."

Zongmeng's smile was softer, and the coldness hidden in the depths of his eyes was also more hidden.

"So things can never be seen on the surface. On the surface, I was asked to bring the furnace, but in fact, I was treated as a pawn. I used my hand to test the real situation of Fenghai County, and then he can analyze the reasons for the loss of the army. the real reason."

"As for him, he can advance, attack, retreat, or defend. If something goes wrong with me, he can easily get rid of it."

The General League picked up the chess piece with a smile, and obviously it did not fall, but the chessboard turned into two chess pieces by itself.

This scene seems simple, but if Guixu is gazing here, he must be in a state of mind, because this simple action contains the almost extreme application and sublimation of the law, which surpasses all illusions and reality.

The realm of returning to the void includes shattering the emptiness and thousands of ways, transforming the virtual into reality, opening up billions of imaginations, and returning to the unity of the law.

"I like the number three." The General League chuckled softly and calmly.

At the same time, in Fenghai County, in the Immortal Forbidden Land, in front of the Fengniao Hall.

As the door opened, black swallowed everything.

Not only the figures of Xu Qing and Zixuan, but also their minds are also integrated into this black spread.

The main hall in front of my eyes was silent and empty, as cold as a dungeon, and there was only one statue standing in the middle, as if sealed in a cage.

This woman looks like a middle-aged woman, similar to Zi Xuan, but obviously not. His appearance is full of grace, his expression is smiling, his eyes are full of compassion, and there is a lamp in the corner of his eyes.

Like the most precious treasure in her life, this lamp is made of purple stone, like a blooming purple flower, with a purple phoenix bird perched on it, its wings spread out, lifelike.

The moment Xu Qing saw this lamp, the tearing feeling in Xu Qing's mind was suddenly strong, and the lost memories emerged one by one.

He turned to look at Zixuan, he remembered that he had entered here before, saw some pictures about Zixuan, saw a woman exactly like Zixuan appeared under the statue, saw the door open, walked in a man.

He also remembered the dialogue on the screen, that man... seemed to be the son of Xuanyou Ancient Emperor.

Everything appeared in Xu Qing's mind, turning into thunder, roaring in the mind.

But at this moment, Zixuan was trembling, looking at the statue with a sad expression, she let go of Xu Qing's hand, and unconsciously walked towards the statue, murmuring.

"My dream is a dark world, where there is a light."

"It is extinguished, and I imagine it should be a blooming redbud with a purple phoenix bird perched on it."

"This lamp has always appeared in my dreams, dreams without light."

"The world in the dream is here."

Zixuan's voice had an ethereal meaning in this silent hall, as if it came from the years and reverberated in this life.

And as she walked, when she stood under the statue, the illusory body that appeared in Xu Qing's memory actually overlapped with Zi Xuan standing there, without distinction.

She looked at the statue with admiration and bitterness in her eyes.

And then, the scene in Xu Qing's memory reappeared in front of her eyes.

The figure of the prince pierced through his body from behind and stood in front of Zixuan. The imperial robe of the four-clawed golden dragon and the shaking of the nine-beaded imperial crown made this figure exude a strong power of heaven.

The prince seemed to say something, but Xu Qing couldn't hear it, he could only see Zixuan looking out from a distance, with deep nostalgia and sadness in his eyes.

But this time, there was something different from his memory after all, he heard Zixuan's voice.

"I will not leave."

"Father's decision is wrong. Abandoning the people, abandoning the homeland, turning the outer sky into a holy place, and living there alone, what is the meaning of life."

"To survive for myself, to ignore the ancient catastrophe, this ancient emperor...he is not worthy."

Zixuan was sad and indignant.

Xu Qing was shocked when he heard these words.

But the figure in the imperial robe fell silent, stretched out his hand after a while, as if making the last effort, Zi Xuan's eyes showed determination, and he shook his head again.

In the end, with a lonely expression, the prince took out a purple vial, and after doing this towards the statue, he put the vial aside, turned around silently, his expression was filled with sadness, and there was even a touch of pain, and he walked towards the door of the main hall, from Xu Qing passed in front of her, walking further and further away.

Following the disappearance, the door of the main hall slowly closed.

The entire hall was silent, only the lamp was emitting fireworks, burning continuously, making a slight sound, and with the shaking of the flame, the light shone on the hall.

In the light of the fire, Zixuan looked sad, and squatted down against the statue, weeping silently.

The pictures in Xu Qing's memory end here.

But this time, everything that appeared in front of his eyes did not end.

Time seemed to have no value of existence in this hall, and flowed silently, until there were miserable wailing and painful roars from the outside world.

The blood was spreading outside, and the cry for help came faintly.

And Zixuan's figure stood up again at this moment, a set of battle armor appeared on her body, penetrated Xu Qing's body step by step, and walked out of the hall.

Xu Qing couldn't move, he could only watch silently. After an unknown amount of time, the outside voices gradually disappeared, and Zi Xuan's figure returned to the main hall with exhaustion and weakness.

Most of her battle armor has been shattered, and her body is full of scars. But holding the head in her hand, Zi Xuan's figure slowly walked up to the statue, staring at the statue. There was tenderness on her pale face.

"Mother, I can only kill that foreign god once, and she will be revived here in a few years. However, she will no longer have the status of a god when she is revived. In addition, I used the method you taught me, mother. Incantation, she will die from cannibalism in the future, but unfortunately... I can't see it anymore."

Zixuan softly wanted to pick up the purple vial and add some oil to the lamp, but he couldn't do it, so he could only sit down against the statue and slowly closed his eyes.

The soul flies, the soul scatter.

The lamp was still burning, but there was no oil added. As time went by, its flame gradually dimmed until it disappeared completely.

The entire hall was plunged into darkness and ice.

With the disappearance of the fire, and the silence of the outside world, darkness descended, swallowing everything.

Time passes, years change.

After an unknown number of years had passed in the Immortal Forbidden Land, a tremor suddenly appeared one day.

A sense of recovery rose, and a low roar of a god reverberated, and flesh and blood appeared in the forbidden place. Flesh and blood covered the earth, flooding every hall, including this place.

A long, long time passed, until this day, in the dark hall, a purple circle suddenly appeared in front of the statue.

It appeared out of thin air, and the moment it appeared, it immediately caused a roar in the entire Immortal Forbidden Land.

And at the moment when the divine thought swept over, a hand stretched out from the purple circle, grabbed the extinguished lamp, and dragged it into the circle.

This hand seemed to still want to grab the purple vial, but it was too late, so it left decisively.

But it was still a bit late, and the divine thoughts from the forbidden gods came overwhelmingly, slammed into the purple circle fiercely, and touched the hand.

The circle collapsed, turned into countless fragments, and merged into the endless nothingness.

The hand trembled, although it still left, the wick of the lamp in his hand fell off, lost in nothingness, and disappeared.

The picture disappeared at this moment, before Xu Qing's eyes, and disappeared together with this hall and that withered statue, and this place was turned into ruins again.

It's like a dream, when you wake up, everything is gone, only Zixuan standing on the ruins, like a plum blossom in the snow, standing in the quiet valley.

No matter whether there are people around her watching or not, she seems to be alone in an empty wilderness.

Looking at the sky, looking lonely.

After a long time, she said softly, "Let's go back."

Xu Qing walked over silently, and walked out together with Zixuan. They didn't speak a word along the way until they left the Immortal Forbidden Land.

It was night when they came, but the moment they left it was already daytime.

The sky was clear blue and the sun was shining brightly. Looking at the bleak Zi Xuan in front of him, Xu Qing suddenly called him to stop.

Zixuan turned his head and stared at Xu Qing, Xu Qing didn't say much, just let him stretch out his palm.

Under the sunlight, Zixuan's palms are clear, one after another, like fate.

"What's in your palm?" Xu Qing asked.

Zixuan was puzzled and shook his head.

Xu Qing looked into Zixuan's eyes and spoke softly.

"In the palm, there is sunshine."
