The banquet of the Nacai Festival will last all night, but Ji Mo did not stay in the hall for too long, because when Ye Junhou and Ye Po were talking, Qingye had quietly left. He was originally an inconspicuous young man with neither a strong cultivation nor a special identity. Except for Ji Mo, who was secretly observing, and Su Ge, who knew everything, no one noticed his departure. Let Ye Mingjun come forward to hold Su Ge, and Ji Mo silently chases out.
From the beginning of the banquet, Qingye kept his head down. Ji Mo still remembers how the young man and himself would be amazed when they saw any novelty when they were on a mission. However, now he is in a magic palace full of rare treasures. The only response was silence.
Aoba was brought back to the temple by Chang Hui sixteen years ago. At that time, Chang Hui gave him the identity of an orphan whose parents lost both of his parents. For an ordinary child, being able to be adopted by the temple in a chaotic world and living a life of worry-free food and clothing is already a blessing. He was extremely lucky, so he always respected Chang Hui who saved him, and devoted himself to serving the temple priests. But what if all this is false
The demon's slave blood contract cannot be solved, but it can be overwritten by a new blood contract. Ye Junhou never buys people's hearts. Since the establishment of Mozhou, all his subordinates have been controlled by demon blood. In this way, there is no betrayal in the iron-blooded empire created by slaves' absolute obedience to their masters. Its flaws, until now another demon is about to appear.
The abyss can only have one master, so each generation of demons has the ability to control their own inheritance, and only when they die will they leave their descendants. It is impossible for Ye Junhou to forget his weakness, and he probably won't have two sons. Ji Mo doesn't know why he left offspring in his prime. He only knows that if there is no action from the queen, no one can send the son of the devil. Magic Palace.
Wuyan easily found Qingye hiding in the flowers. Ji Mo remembered that Qingye once told himself that when he was a child, seeing common people's children with parents but not, often felt sad because of this. But there are too many children in the temple, and the god attendant who is responsible for taking care of them is very busy every day. He doesn't want to cause trouble to the adults, so he just hides in the flowers in the courtyard and weeps silently.
"So I think, in order to prevent the children of Shenzhou from being as uncomfortable as I am, we must try our best to stop the war. If you die because of this, it will be considered as a repayment of the kindness of the Rising Sun Priest."
When he asked Aoba why he chose to show up to defend the city, the boy answered shyly. At that time, although he saw the prince of Mozhou who was completely different from his own life, he never envied that person for anything. He still had faith in the temple and the priest of the rising sun as his father. He didn't think that In this way, he is not as good as Ye Po.
So, now what? When he found out that he was not an orphan, it was his mother who gave him to the temple in order to kill his father. His biological father cared about him very much, but all the favors that should have belonged to him were given to another person, and his most respected Rising Sun Priest personally sent him to the front line, and let him be hanged by the child who replaced him on the city wall, Almost to death...
Can a 16-year-old boy accept such a reality
What answered him was Qingye's uncontrollable blood-red demonic energy and painful whimper. He silently looked at the young man who was trying to hide himself in the flowers. Ji Mo sighed softly, "Qingye, are you going to be enchanted?"
"Morning Star Priest... I'm not reconciled."
Hearing this somewhat indifferent voice, the surging demonic energy in Aoba's body stagnated a little, and he still remembered that it was the morning star priest who saved him. The priest in white has been looking at the world indifferently, as if the joys and sorrows of all beings can't make him have any emotional fluctuations, but now, only this person has never used him.
"Is this really justice?"
Until now, the boy cultivated by the temple still retains a bit of innocence. He can't accept such cruel justice, and seeks answers from bystanders with bewildered eyes.
Leaning over and gently brushing the blades of grass from the boy's hair, Ji Mo's answer was still calm, "Yes, but it's justice that is twisted to the point of disowning six relatives."
"Morning Star Priest, now only you have never lied to me, I only trust you, please answer me seriously."
Even if it is twisted, it is justice. After understanding the meaning of the words, Aoba clasped her knees with both hands, and finally chose to face it, "Will the world be saved as long as I fall into the devil?"
"Even if you destroy Ye Junhou and expel heaven and man to rule the five continents, the world will never be at peace. Those who want to bring you down will begin to liquidate all the sacrifices you made in the war, and will regard your father-slaughter as a Crime will magnify any mistake you make and criticize it. If you want stability in the world, you have to shut up all opposition forces with iron and blood, and these people may not all be evil."
Answering the despairing answer flatly, Ji Mo thought that maybe this was the reason why Su Ge didn't let Qingye see him. To win against Ye Junhou, he had to get a new demon, but he couldn't use a bright future. Seduce a teenager into the battlefield.
Having experienced it personally, he understands better than anyone how bumpy the road ahead is and how painful it is when his ideals are shattered. If he must enter a troubled world, he hopes that everything is the choice of the young man, so that at least he will not regret it in the future.
"The tyrant wants to kill, and the wise king will kill. Even if you don't do anything, the world is doomed to blood. However, as long as you get the power, you can decide how to change this terrible world."
It's just a little hope, but it's enough for Aoba. After all, he can't turn a blind eye to the cruelty of the world, and he will feel uncomfortable and almost suffocated by the indifference of human feelings. The first to stand up and clean the world must be the people who can't stand the stains, such as Qing Ye, such as Su Ge, and such as the former Young stranger.
"This burden is too heavy..."
Muttering and looking ahead, the young man seemed to have foreseen the bloody storm coming in the future. As Ji Mo expected, he finally raised his head and pleaded in a weak voice, "Priest of Morning Stars, can I leave some feelings behind? , just a little bit is fine, at least, don't let me become like the devil."
The blood of the demons was awakened by sacrificing people's hearts. Ji Mo knew that Qingye also felt the call from the abyss. He didn't know how much he had to pay to get the power of the demons. He only remembered that Ye Junhou gave up all the emotions that belonged to people. now cultivated.
When he was hesitating how to answer, Su Ge's gentle and calm voice came from behind, "Qing Ye, I believe you will not become the second Ye Junhou."
"The High Priest..."
Seeing the look of the high priest in white clothes and green leaves, Ji Mo immediately looked at Ye Mingjun, who was in charge of stopping him, but the immortal just smiled helplessly, "I was persuaded by him."
Well, he actually forgot that Su Ge was the protagonist who could take Chang Hui as his subordinate just by talking.
Finally remembering that Su Ge, who usually doesn't care about things, has the skill of tearing Confucianism with tongue. With Ye Mingjun's current understanding of human feelings, he is definitely not his opponent. Ji Mo can only sigh silently and accept the reality.
And Su Ge did not live up to his evaluation, so he squatted down in front of Qingye, stretched out his palm and touched the top of the boy's head, his expression was as peaceful as ever, "The reason why you choose to rule the Demon Continent, except that you are Ye Son of a prince, and because you are the child of heaven and mortal, only in this way can you build a kingdom where the two coexist. And I will take the responsibility to teach you to be an emperor who can control this huge empire."
In the temple, the high priest is the god. When the words of comfort entered his ears, Aoba finally calmed down. Seeing the tension on his face dissipated, Su Ge smiled lightly, "What we need is the blood of the demons, what sacrifice? It is up to you to decide, even if you are the weakest demon, I can teach you to become a powerful temple priest. As for this world, if you can't bear it, then I will bear it."
As soon as these words came out, Ji Mo knew that Su Ge had won. Sure enough, with the support of the High Priest, Qingye took a deep breath and finally made up his mind, "High Priest, please give me some time."
"There is news from the Demon Empress Fang that Ye Junhou and Chang Hui will have a ceremony to summon the gods tonight in the other palace. You still have half an hour to consider which feelings to give up. Please don't imitate the devil, if you also become a ruthless and ruthless person People, even if you overthrow the rule of Demon Continent, it doesn't make any sense."
After successfully appeasing the young man and letting him think silently about how to choose, Su Ge turned his attention to Ji Mo. In his memory, "God" has always been indifferent, but he did not expect them to intervene in human disputes. Although it was an accident, he calmly answered the question in the other party's heart, "Priest of Morning Star, I didn't tell you the plan because I knew you would definitely stop them from summoning the gods."
It was a technique designed by Ji Mo, and he naturally knew its weaknesses. Although this method can summon sleeping blood relatives to his side, it consumes a lot when crossing the space. In the past, when Ren Qingya summoned him, he directly returned to his original form, and it took three days to slowly recover. He didn't know how the demon king had improved this technique over the years. At least Ye Junhou would definitely enter a weak state after participating in the summoning.
This is the best time to get rid of the demon master. Suger thinks that as "gods", they will not allow the same kind to be summoned into this world, so he will only announce it when things can no longer be stopped.
After rationally analyzing the current situation, Ji Mo did not waste time asking questions, but just like every exchange in the past, he lightly put forward his own conditions, "The summoned god must be handed over to us."
"It's natural, I've never been hostile to God."
Su Ge was telling the truth, he never wanted to do anything to God, otherwise he would not have risked turning his face with the demon king to save Ji Mo many years ago.
Ji Mo still had no doubts about his justice, but when he recalled the goal in Su Ge's mouth, he couldn't help frowning, "High priest, heaven and man are not as easy to rule as you think."
This year, there are only a handful of protagonists who do not dominate the world. So many world hegemons gather together, and it is very difficult for them to obey the orders of others. He does not understand why Su Ge is going to challenge such a difficult task.
"Morning Star Priest, I have no way of knowing the struggle between the gods, but I know that you don't want the heaven and the human to continue to stay in this world."
Softly speaking out the results of his observation of Ji Mo over the years, Su Ge did not back down. He looked firmly at the god in front of him and expressed his thoughts for the first time.
"Mortal human beings are life, and so are heaven and human beings. They may be very different from ordinary people, but heaven and human beings also have their own feelings. It was God who created heaven and human beings, so please don't abandon us for the sake of the world."
"Father, what am I in your eyes? A doll controlled by you? A weapon to conquer the world for you? Or an obedient and docile pet? But I'm neither."
When the high priest looked at him with his gentle and clear eyes, the deliberately forgotten voice suddenly resurfaced in Ji Mo's mind. He finally realized that his hostility to heaven and man had never diminished over the years.
His distance from heaven and man was indeed related to Ren Qingya's betrayal, but before, it seemed that from the beginning, he regarded all heaven and man except Ren Qingya as enemies. Although he knew everything about heaven and man, he never regarded these characters as living people, and he also forgot that people will always change with the environment.
No wonder Xihuang Qimingzhu still refuses to admit who he is now. It turns out that this is what Ye Mingjun said, that he is not mature enough.
Why hide it from him, because Su Ge has long seen his rejection of heaven and man, but the high priest who has a good impression of God has never broken this point. Even if he exposes the reality, he just looks at it with such sad eyes He, with a little hope, did not complain.
Even if Su Ge is not the character he created, this is a look no writer can resist. He sighed silently, Ji Mo did not make any more stop, just asked, "Will there not be a problem with Chang Hui?"
"What the demon king gave him was just a letter, but I have partnered with the priest of the rising sun for thirty years."
Hearing this, Su Ge knew that Ji Mo would not be his enemy, and there was a smile on his face when he answered. He stayed outside Chang Hui's room for the first three nights before arriving in Mozhou. Although the man refused to show up at first, he couldn't help but open the door.
He knew Chang Hui very well, and even if there was God's arrangement, that person's attachment to Fiji was not a fake. Over the years, he has never managed political affairs, and the person who has been teaching Fei's culture in Shenzhou is Chang Hui. It is also Chang Hui who chooses to take in the remnants of Fei's country to fight against Mozhou, and this should be something that God can't decide.
Thinking of the scene where Chang Hui threw his pigeon out of the window with a dark face, Su Ge sighed with some nostalgia, "Morning Star Priest, hatred can deceive people for a while, but it can't eliminate the friendship that once fought side by side."
After he finished speaking, he realized that these words seemed to have the taste of God, and he smiled again, "This sentence has not been said by God, it is the truth that I have learned on my own over the years."
"Well, you convinced me too."
Reluctantly leaning on Ye Mingjun, Ji Mo finally chose to surrender. How could he have thought that even the author couldn't tell the protagonist's mouth to escape
Finally let God stand on his side, Su Ge, who has always been calm and composed, was also secretly relieved. When he found out that there was a conflict between his thoughts and Ji Mo, he was actually confused. He was not sure whether he should disobey God's will.
Fortunately, the gods finally recognized him.
Although these two people were not the gods who created him, at least now I can tell myself that even if I have long felt no connection with God, if one day God finds him who is still working hard, maybe it will come to him spontaneously. in front of him, and then showed a relieved smile.
He wanted to be a proud believer in God, and that's all Suger wanted from the first day he set foot on the journey.
