Chapter 498: Missing Starry Sky [Please give me a monthly ticket! ]
silence.
In the vast starry sky, all sounds suddenly disappeared, and for a moment one could hear a pin drop.
Bei Luo Shimen's eyes revealed a trace of doubt, looking at the girl in front of him, as if she had encountered something that surprised her. For tens of thousands of years, she had changed her body and name every thousand years, but she had never received such an answer.
After a long silence, she finally asked, "What do you want me to do to make you agree?"
Liang Xiaoyun's tone was still gentle, but her words were very strong. "I don't need you to compensate my family. If you ask them, they will never agree to use my life in exchange for all their wishes. I am not willing to sacrifice for the world. If you want me to agree to merge with you, you must give me all the divinity and power, and keep my soul, so that my consciousness can lead everything. From now on, I can be that god to protect the world."
"Master, you have protected the human world for so long. I believe that even if you hand this world over to someone who comes after you, it will not be destroyed in chaos, but will likely be reborn."
"You have supreme divine power and can definitely achieve your goal by force. But even if you ask me ten thousand times, I will not accept being sacrificed in this way."
She said word by word: "I don't want to."
"That's really a pity." Bei Luo Shimen said softly, "I have the responsibility to protect this world, and I can't hand it over to others at will. I also don't believe that others will be like me, sitting on divine power but never interfering in anything in the world. Xiaoyun, I can only say sorry to you."
As she spoke, she raised her hand and pointed at Liang Xiaoyun's forehead.
call out--
Liang Xiaoyun immediately and involuntarily fell on her back, her eyes emitting white light, and her entire consciousness seemed to be instantly pulled away.
In the face of absolute power, she had no room to resist.
But even so, she still said, "I don't want to."
Bei Luoshimen's dark blue body swept forward and merged with her immediately, but in just a moment, a little surprise appeared in her eyes. From the depths of Liang Xiaoyun's temple, chain-like spells floated out, surrounding her body and isolating her from the outside world.
At the same time, the endless stars around suddenly dimmed, and in the blink of an eye, they all disappeared, and everything around was hidden in endless darkness.
"It's really you..."
Today's "Liang Xiaoyun", or Bei Luo Shimen, looks as calm as ever. With a wave of his hand, he can change the world again in an instant.
boom--
After the stars disappeared, she appeared on the sixth floor of Wentian Tower with Liang Xiaoyun's body.
At this time, the lower floors were filled with priests from the Wentian Tower, and a young man was slowly walking up to the sixth floor. Through the window, he could see the sky outside, which had fallen into pure darkness.
Looking at the time, it should have been daytime, but not only was there no sunlight, even the light from the stars and the moon had disappeared.
The entire Longyuan City, along with a small half of Zhongzhou, fell into a long night.
Bei Luo Shimen ignored the chaos and noise outside for the time being, and instead focused on the figure of the young man in front of him, and saw the divine origin within his skin.
"You should have been born a long time ago. I was wondering why you didn't come to find me this time." Her voice was still as ethereal as if it was in the sky. "So you have prepared so many means. Not only is this little girl willing to help you, but you can even bring in that old Zhulong."
"It was it that found the forget-me-not grass, and we went to snatch the immortal seed away, but you wanted to kill it. I let it go, giving it the opportunity to survive in the Xuanming Sea for so long." Xuanyuan Fourteen smiled and said, "It owes me this."
"It has lived for tens of thousands of years. Even if it dies here today, it is worth it." Beiluo Shimen said coldly.
"Yes." Xuanyuan Shisi's eyes turned cold, "It has already paid back what it owed me. When are you going to pay back what you owe me?!"
……
Not long ago, Liang Fuguo received an imperial decree summoning him to the palace.
There was no handwritten letter, only an oral order.
He sat in a chair in a trance for a moment, then chuckled, "Prepare the car, and enter the palace."
The carriage stopped in front of the Liang Mansion. He walked out of the gate accompanied by Jin Lan. When he was about to get on the carriage, he saw a figure in white standing in front of the door.
"An order to kill the evil." The guards beside him nodded and saluted, then at Liang Fuguo's signal, turned around and retreated a certain distance.
Liang Fuguo and Chen Su had a private conversation face to face. "Don't enter the palace today." Chen Su said bluntly, "Tang Wei just left the capital, and Emperor Mubei summoned you at this time. I'm worried that he will harm you."
"Heh." Liang Fuguo smiled again, "You are still a man of the world after all. How can you disobey the king's summons?"
"There's nothing wrong with being a Jianghu person." Chen Su did not refute, "I can come to the court as I please and leave as I please. I don't have to be like you, who insists on going there even though you know there's a trap ahead."
"You think too much. I will be fine." Liang Fuguo said calmly.
He took a step forward, but the distance between him and Chen Su did not shorten, as if there was a force in the void blocking him.
"I never thought that you would be a loyal person. How many corrupt officials and royal relatives have we killed in the past few years? Such people in the court have never had a good end in history. I am always ready to return to Sanqing Mountain. Have you never thought about withdrawing?" Chen Su asked.
"When you have to, do what you have to do." Liang Fuguo took another step forward and brushed shoulders with Chen Su. He patted the other's shoulder and said, "I was the runner-up in the sixth year of Mubei. Your Majesty personally appointed me to the court and has treated me with no injustice for more than twenty years."
"I can't be the one to back off first."
"..."
Chen Su stood there, watching Liang Fuguo's carriage go away, and suddenly felt a little confused.
He thought he was quite familiar with Liang Fuguo. He had always believed that he was heartless and unscrupulous, but now that he thought about it carefully, he realized that he was one of the few people in the court who valued friendship and loyalty.
It's really strange.
The carriage headed north and soon arrived at the foot of the imperial city. Palace servants were already waiting there to lead the way for Liang Fuguo.
Surrounded by palace maids in brocade uniforms, Liang Fuguo walked along the familiar long road along the high walls and came to the white stone square outside the Shanhe Hall.
"How many people did your majesty summon? Why do we have to come to the main hall?" Liang Fuguo asked.
"I don't know. Lord Left Prime Minister will know when he goes inside." Several palace maids were sent to the edge of the square, but they did not dare to move forward and stopped there.
In front of the main hall across the square, Cao Wujiu's figure could be seen from afar. The old eunuch was tall and straight-backed, and he called out in full force, "Lord Zuo Xiang, please come into the hall and see me—"
Upon hearing the voice, Liang Fuguo strode forward.
On the huge white square, there is only this scarlet figure, as if walking in the snow.
In fact, he knew better than anyone that Emperor Mu Bei allowed him to eliminate corrupt officials, kill royal family members, and slaughter aristocratic families, wishing to kill half of the court, just to clean up the court. Sooner or later, he would be abandoned after he had played his due role.
Tang Wei was invited out of retirement by himself. Now he has a large number of troops under his command. If he himself controls the Ministry of War and cooperates with him from inside and outside, no one will feel at ease.
Now he has firmly grasped the three ministries of military, criminal, and engineering, and is truly powerful. Few emperors can tolerate such a thing. Emperor Mubei can accept that the court is full of ministers of dragons and tigers, but he can't allow Liang Fuguo to be the only one left.
This means something completely different.
But Liang Fuguo still came.
He wanted to see how Mu Beidi would treat him and what his ending would be.
"Lord Zuo Xiang!" Halfway through the journey, Cao Wujiu suddenly shouted, "Stop."
"Your Majesty, don't want to see me?" Liang Fuguo asked.
"The high priest has already confirmed that you are the real culprit of the massacre of the royal family in the Lingxue Temple of Taihuang Mountain." Cao Wujiu's tone suddenly changed, and he said fiercely, "Liang Fuguo, do you admit your guilt?"
As he shouted, murderous intent suddenly rose from all sides of the square. Nearly a hundred black flags rose up, forming a dark cloud formation. In the clouds and mist, the vast number of imperial cavalry appeared. Among them were the strong men of the Worship Hall, with a majestic and magnificent momentum, like a god descending.
The boundless killing array is just for one person.
Faced with the sudden change in the situation, Liang Fuguo responded with another indifferent smile.
"I am guilty."
"But...so what?"
