Sometimes, Night Emperor often feels that his mentality is very strange.
In the past, Ziwei tried to please her in every possible way, but she only felt that he was very noisy.
Nowadays, Zi Wei never comes to her unless he has something important to discuss. Instead, she is full of curiosity about him.
She couldn't help but wonder, the soul and cause and effect of the person in front of her showed that he was Zi Wei, but why was his temperament completely different from Zi Wei? How did he quietly replace the amazingly talented and powerful man from thousands of years ago?
But it was inconvenient for her to ask Gu Xu directly.
"Even if you don't mention it, I will protect your life," the Night Emperor said calmly, "If you die, I will have no chance to rescue my sister and avenge my dead compatriots."
p>"Then there is His Majesty the Emperor Lao Ye." Gu Xu said with a slight smile.
After saying that, he suddenly remembered something important. After a pause, he asked again: "Your Majesty the Night Emperor, your "secret" authority can really hide anything from the world." Is it a thing? Does it have any weaknesses?"
Hearing this, the corners of Yehuang's mouth raised slightly, revealing a playful smile: "You ask me about the weaknesses of authority? Why should I tell you this secret that concerns my life and my path? If I let you know, wouldn’t it be at your disposal in the future?”
“We are just grasshoppers on the same rope now,” Gu Xu Repeating what she said before, "I need to know where the limits of the "secret" power are and what I need to pay attention to when using it, so that my clone can do things better in the spiritual world.
"If you help me, you are helping yourself. "
The Night Emperor narrowed his golden eyes and stared at him as sharp as lightning. He did not respond immediately.
"If you tell me, I will be more confident to find out. With the news about Jiang Zhaoyue, we might be able to find a chance to rescue her. "Gu Xu continued.
The Night Emperor's expression softened slightly.
She pondered for a moment and said: "There are a few flaws in the "secret":
“First, in front of people whose cultivation level is far higher than mine, its effective time will be greatly shortened, and there is a certain possibility that its flaws will be discovered.
“Second, it cannot It takes effect in the realm of Tao of other eighth realm strong men.
"Third, it cannot be effective in front of people who do not belong to this time and space."
"People who do not belong to this time and space." Gu Xu said these words silently in his heart for a few seconds Again, I felt a little confused.
The first thing he thought of was his identity as a time traveler.
But a few days ago, when he saw the crow with golden eyes, he was slow to recognize that it was the Night Emperor's transformation - this obviously proved that his guess was wrong.
What does this mean?
Could it be...
A bold guess suddenly flashed in Gu Xu's mind.
…………
The next morning, Li Yun was summoned to Changchun Garden to meet the saint.
He was wearing the bright red robe of the Zifu Army, with a long sword hanging from his waist. Compared with a year ago, he looked more stable and mature.
Although Li Yun admires His Majesty greatly, he has never had the opportunity to communicate with His Majesty alone.
Most of the time, when His Majesty was inspecting the Zifu Army, he stood among a group of companions and looked at His Majesty's handsome, calm and powerful figure from a distance, as if he had descended from the clouds to the world. of gods.
"For Dahuang, compared to the "god" in the past, His Majesty is more like a genuine god today," Li Yun often thought in his mind, "People worship" God" After so many years, the wilderness is still plagued by ghosts and the people are in dire straits.
"But His Majesty has only been on the throne for more than a year, and the world has undergone earth-shaking changes.
“Not only can the common people have enough food and clothing, and no longer worry about ghosts invading their homes, but the monks can also practice with peace of mind, no longer being corroded by evil spirits and worrying about becoming evil.”
Because of this, Li Yun felt flattered when a eunuch came to the mansion to inform him that His Majesty wanted to summon him alone.
He specially bathed and changed clothes, carefully smoothing out every wrinkle on the clothes with his true energy, combing his hair smoothly and making sure his hat was straight, and then walked out to Changchun Garden.
It was quiet in Changchun Garden, except for the faint sound of the wind rustling through the pines and cypresses in the distance.
Han Shunxi had already been waiting outside the garden gate. When he saw Li Yun arriving, he led him towards the emperor's study room.
When he arrived in front of the door, Han Shunxi stopped and said softly: "Your Majesty is already in the study. Mr. Li can enter directly without being formal."
Li Yun took a deep breath. After adjusting his mind, he crossed the threshold and stepped into the royal study.
The room is spacious and bright, and the sunlight shines through the high windows, illuminating the volumes of ancient books on the bookshelf.
The young emperor sat behind the desk, looking down at the memorial and looking attentively.
"Your Majesty, Li Yun, pays homage to your Majesty!" Li Yun clasped his hands and saluted respectfully.
Hearing the sound, Gu Xu put down the brush in his hand and looked up at him.
His eyes are calm and gentle, not aggressive.
However, under that gaze, Li Yun felt as if everything about him had been seen through, and all the secrets had nowhere to hide.
Looking at Li Yun in front of him, Gu Xu had a lot of thoughts in his mind.
It’s late winter now.
After New Year's Eve, it is the third year of the Yuan Dynasty.
He clearly remembers the time point when he traveled to the future through the East China Sea Guixu and destroyed the "Tower of Babel" with his own hands.It is "the third year of Yuanshi".
At that time, the sky was dark and the air was slightly chilly, like early spring or late autumn.
At this moment, Li Yun's appearance quietly overlapped with the figure of the man in red robe in his memory.
"Li Yun, I have an important task for you."
As he spoke, he handed a beautifully crafted golden scroll to Li Yun.
Li Yun immediately took it with both hands.
"I need you to go to Kunlun Mountain and stay at the foot of the mountain. Soon, you will meet a person who looks exactly like me - that was me two years ago," Gu Xu continued, "Take him and go northwest along the mountain road for several miles. There will be a group of people building a formation.
"I need him to destroy that formation— -In this world, he is the only person capable of destroying that formation. ”
When he finished speaking, a golden light flashed from his fingertips and then sank into Li Yun’s head.
Li Yun immediately understood the exact location of the place he was talking about.
It’s just that Gu Xu’s words made him confused.
He didn’t understand why His Majesty appeared in front of him two years ago.
Why does His Majesty need the self from two years ago to destroy that formation?
Why can only His Majesty from two years ago be able to complete this task, but the current His Majesty cannot do it himself?
...
He felt that there must be a shocking secret behind this matter.
But His Majesty did not explain it, so he did not dare to inquire too much.
"By the way, go and give this letter to me two years ago. ”
After a brief silence, Gu Xu took out another secret letter from his sleeve and handed it to Li Yun. The transcoding has been serious recently, which makes us more motivated and updates faster. Could you please touch it? Move your hands to exit reading mode. Thank you
