Chapter 46 God Viewing the Moon, God Falling Stars, God Clear Night...
The marrow washing pool was filled with fairy air, but it was not a good place for Shen Li. When the rich fairy air washed away the miasma around her body, it also removed a lot of her Immortal Realmic energy. An hour of bathing made Shen Li exhausted as if she had fought a big battle. If she wanted to recover her magic power, she would have to wait until after the White Flower Banquet. Shen Li smiled coldly. She understood that this was exactly what the immortals in the heaven wanted. To remove her magic power and reduce her threat, these hypocritical immortals were always on guard against the Immortal Realm world... Even if they had already surrendered...
A loud "clang" sound came from outside the marrow washing hall, followed by the roar of the beast that seemed to shatter the beams.
Shen Li raised her eyebrows in surprise. There are also Immortal Realm beasts in the heaven? She put on her clothes, tied her hair, and pushed the door out of the marrow washing hall with a mentality of watching a good show.
Above the huge auspicious clouds in front of the hall, a huge white lion pounced on Youlan like crazy. The attendant of the Marrow Washing Hall stood in front of Youlan with a pale face, protecting her from dodging everywhere. However, the lion had already forced Youlan into a corner, and there was no escape. The attendant actually rolled on the ground, rolled under the lion's crotch, and fled in a panic, leaving Youlan standing alone in the corner, staring blankly at the white lion with trembling pale lips.
The white lion roared and raised its claws to slap Youlan. Shen Li frowned, flashed, and landed in front of Youlan. She raised her hand to block. Her arm, which seemed much smaller than the white lion, blocked the white lion's claws. However, although she blocked it, Shen Li frowned. She felt that her breath was unstable and her strength was running out. She couldn't push the white lion away. She knew that it must be the credit of the marrow washing pool. When she was in a stalemate with the white lion, Youlan behind her suddenly said, "No need for the Immortal Realms to rescue me."
"Okay." Shen Li heard this and immediately loosened her hand. The white lion's claws with murderous intent went straight to Youlan's face. Youlan didn't expect Shen Li to let go as she said. She gasped in fear and looked pale. When the claws were about to touch her cheek, they stopped suddenly. Shen Li said, "If you want to save your face, beg me."
If you don't want to get a bargain, then ask for it appropriately. Shen Li thought so.
Youlan hardly dared to turn her head. The wild beast's violent aura on the claws almost pierced her tears. A delicate hand quietly grabbed Shen Li's skirt. Youlan's voice was three parts fear, three parts unwillingness, and more of the weakness of a woman: "Please... please."
Shen Li suddenly didn't know what kind of mentality was satisfied. She smiled complacently, and then shouted in a low voice, pushing away the white lion's claws. With the other hand, she embraced Youlan's slender waist, jumped over the white lion's head, and landed behind it. Shen Li let Youlan go, and saw her fall to the ground limply. Shen Li said: "Originally, I didn't intend to save you even if you begged me, but you came to the Marrow Washing Hall with me, and it was too coincidental that you got into trouble here. I just don't want others to gossip anymore."
Youlan, who had just escaped a disaster, had no mind to pay attention to Shen Li's teasing. She only glanced behind Shen Li, and her face became more and more pale. Shen Li glanced back and saw that the white lion had already pounced in front of the two of them, with its huge claws already swinging. It was no problem for Shen Li to dodge, but it would be a burden to carry Youlan with her. Shen Li estimated that she would only feel pain for a few days after being hit by the white lion's claws, but the goddess might be beaten to death directly. There was no time to weigh the pros and cons. Shen Li hugged Youlan and scratched her back with its sharp claws. Blood and flesh flew everywhere.
Youlan screamed in fear. When had she ever seen such a scene in her life? After the first strike, the white lion's second claw was about to strike. There was some time in between, and Shen Li hugged Youlan and rolled on the ground, escaping the attack range of the white lion.
Youlan's hand accidentally touched Shen Li's back, and she touched her hand with blood. She trembled: "Are you... okay?"
Shen Li didn't even frown: "It's just a flesh wound." Shen Li saw that the white lion was about to pounce in this direction again, and she realized that the white lion had targeted Youlan. Shen Li's brows sank: "Why did you anger it?"
Youlan just stared at the blood on her hand, her face pale and she didn't answer.
Shen Li knew that she had just been in the marrow washing pool, and she must not fight this white lion head-on. She had fought with monsters for many years and was very familiar with the temperament of beasts. When beasts realized that they could not defeat their opponents, they would retreat. This time her goal was not to kill the white lion, but to force it back, as long as she could win it in momentum.
Youlan, who was sitting behind Shen Li, suddenly felt a heat in her body. She looked up at Shen Li blankly. In the backlight, the profile of this woman's face was so handsome that it almost made people forget her gender.
Suddenly, Shen Li's pupils flashed red, and the surrounding atmosphere moved. Youlan seemed to hear the clear cry of a phoenix, which was loud and clear in the sky. The burning breath around her became heavier, and the white lion opposite roared fiercely, unwilling to be outdone. It suddenly became a place for the two to compete for the king.
The immortals around had been pushed far away by the rolling air waves. Only Youlan behind Shen Li could clearly see the red in Shen Li's eyes becoming more and more overflowing until it dyed her whole eyes red. There was another extremely loud cry. The hot air waves seemed to condense into a dazzling phoenix in the air, whistling and rushing towards the white lion. The white lion, which had been roaring continuously, took a step back. The phoenix circled above its head, as if ready to dive and bite it at any time.
The white lion dodged left and right, and finally let out a "woop". Its body suddenly became smaller, and finally turned into a white fur ball, curled up on the cloud and shivered.
The murderous aura was instantly restrained. Shen Li took a step forward, but a hand grabbed her sleeve. She turned around and heard Youlan lower her head and whispered: "Danger... Danger. Don't go, wait until the heavenly generals come and see."
Shen Li raised her eyebrows. This goddess is a person who knows how to repay kindness. She grabbed the goddess's hand and took her away: "It's okay." Shen Li, who turned around and left, didn't see it. Youlan looked up at her back, then touched her hand, with an inexplicably complicated expression.
Shen Li walked to the white fur ball, bent over and picked it up. The white long-haired dog opened its black eyes, looked at her with watery eyes, and let out a whimpering sound for mercy from its throat. She shook it without mercy: "Tell me, who are you, monster!"
The long-haired dog shook even more violently.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please show mercy!" The white-bearded old man holding a whisk hurriedly ran from not far away, until he came to Shen Li, saluted her, and said, "This is the divine beast Huodou raised by the God in the sky, not a monster!"
Raised by Xingzhi? Shen Li threw the long-haired dog to the white-bearded old man and said, "Do you, the God, want to be the big breeder in heaven? He will have a share in everything."
"Hehe, listening to your tone, Your Majesty, it seems like you are complaining that everything is my fault." A word was interrupted and the immortals around him all bowed and saluted. Xingzhi came gracefully. The old man with white beard put down the evil spirit and bowed down: "I am guilty."
Xingzhi helped the old man and his eyes fell on Shen Li. His eyes moved: "Are you injured?"
Shen Li folded her hands and bowed: "Thanks to the God, I only suffered some flesh wounds." Xingzhi
moved his fingertips, and finally seemed to suppress some emotions. He just bent down and picked up the evil spirit and touched its head. The evil spirit rubbed against his palm as if it was very aggrieved. Xingzhi asked softly: "What happened?"
The old man with white beard said: "I followed the God's order to bring the evil spirit from Tianwai Tian to Xiyuan. Who knew that the evil spirit suddenly went crazy when I got here. I couldn't stop it. It hurt the prince and the goddess Luo Tian. It was really my fault."
Xingzhi then looked at Youlan from a distance and was silent for a long time: "It's not your fault that Huodou suddenly went crazy. Send the prince back to the West Garden, and then find a doctor to take a look." He turned around, walked to Youlan, and helped her up, "Come with me."
Youlan nodded with a gloomy face.
Shen Li returned to the West Garden. She didn't wait for the doctor from the heaven. She really didn't dare to trust the people from the heaven. She wrapped her wounds and changed her clothes. Seeing the white-bearded old man in the backyard looking for a rope to put Huodou on, Shen Li stopped him and said, "Don't put it on."
The old man hesitated a little: "But if it hurts the prince again..."
"It's okay not to put it on when it's good, and it's useless to put it on when it's not good, so don't waste the rope." Moreover, Shen Li is not stupid. As a divine beast, Huodou will not go crazy for no reason. Seeing that Xingzhi secretly went to find the goddess today, Shen Li knew that this disaster must have been caused by Youlan herself. Thinking of this, Shen Li sighed a little. She had only been in heaven for a few days, and she had been attacked so many times intentionally or unintentionally. It was really incompatible with this place.
The white-bearded old man thought about it, but he didn't insist on using a rope to tie the evil spirit. He muttered, "That's good. If you like it, play with it more. The God King originally wanted it to kill time for the prince."
After hearing this, Shen Li's body stiffened slightly, and finally pushed the door and returned to her room expressionlessly.
Close and distant, seemingly unintentional but intentional, Shen Li sat in the room for half a day, wondering what Xingzhi thought of her now. She felt like the long-haired dog. When she remembered it, she teased it a few times, like a fun to kill time in her spare time.
In the evening, the door was knocked twice gently. When Shen Li went to open the door, she didn't see anyone, only hot food was placed at the door of the room. Shen Li was not polite, and went back to eat with the food. This person's cooking skills have not deteriorated at all, but Shen Li can't help but feel a little sad when eating such food.
She put the bowl at the door, and suddenly saw Xingzhi walking out of a room opposite her. That was not his room, but Shen Li often saw him coming out of that room.
The two of them met, and Shen Li just nodded to Xingzhi, and closed the door without saying anything.
The words "Is the food to your taste?" stuck in his throat. Xingzhi glanced at the closed door and smiled suddenly, with a slightly bitter expression. "Is the food to your taste?" "Is the wound okay?" "If you are bored, you can play with the Huodou. It won't hurt you anymore..."
There are so many things he wants to say, but he shouldn't say them, and the other party doesn't give him a chance to say them.
Unable to advance or retreat...
So this is what it feels like.
At night, Shen Li couldn't sleep no matter what, so she simply went out for a walk in the yard. The moon in the sky was very round and bright, illuminating the house with the light of the night in the dark. Shen Li saw a twinkling light from the opposite room. She knew that this was the room that Xingzhi often went to. She was curious. Could there be any rare treasures in it? Shen Li glanced at the closed door of Xingzhi's room and walked to the opposite room lightly. She pushed
the door open, entered the room, and closed the door carefully. Shen Li turned her head and saw a huge screen. It was different from the usual flowers, trees, mountains and rivers. It was a dark and blue night sky with stars on it, like a sky curtain. The stars were flowing in it. It was a moving painting.
Shen Li was amazed and thought that there were indeed rare treasures hidden in it.
But when she walked around the screen, she was stunned. This was not an ordinary room, but another space that was opened up. There was no bottom under her feet and no top above her head. Shen Li seemed to have walked into the painting on the screen just now. The stars and the sea of clouds seemed to be out of this world.
What surprised Shen Li even more was that on those bright stars, there seemed to be small words engraved. She squinted her eyes and took a closer look, and her heart was even more shocked.
God Viewing the Moon, God Falling Stars, God Clear Night...
This is actually... the place where the spirits of the ancient gods are enshrined!
"It's best not to come in here." Xingzhi said lightly, but it still scared Shen Li. She turned around and looked at him with wide eyes. Xingzhi saw Shen Li's vivid expression and smiled suddenly, "Didn't I tell you before?"
Chapter 47 He stands too high, and no one can touch him
Shen Li stared at the movement blankly, thinking that this place where the ancient gods were enshrined should be a very quiet place, and no one should be allowed to enter easily. But... is it really okay to put such an important place in such a room? Are the people in the heavens too comfortable to even know how to guard against it! They don't even know to set up a barrier at the door...
"Is it too late for me to go out now?"
Although Shen Li is a member of the Immortal Realm clan and has never liked the style of the immortals in the current heaven, he still has some respect for the ancient gods.
Xingzhi lowered his head and smiled: "It's too late." He looked up at the flickering spirit tablets in the sky and said, "It's not a big deal. Since you are here, just worship. No one has come to see them for a long time."
Since Xingzhi said so, Shen Li was not in a hurry to go out. She looked up at the stars in the sky. Those spirit tablets seemed to have spirituality. They gradually formed a circle, surrounding Shen Li and Xingzhi in the middle, as if a group of people were surrounding them to explore. Xingzhi had a faint smile on his lips: "This place is the same as the scenery outside the sky. They are usually arranged in the shape of stars and will not move around. Today, seeing you coming, they all came to watch the excitement. They are very happy."
Shen Li glanced at him and saw that although the smile on his lips was light, it dyed the joyful mood on his eyebrows, which was very different from his usual light smile. Shen Li knew that Xingzhi was really happy at this time. She turned her eyes to look at the floating cold spirit tablets, and felt a little sad and desolate in her heart.
For Shen Li, all she saw were the words engraved on the spirit tablets, but Xingzhi saw his former friends, some friends who would never come back. Xingzhi has lived until now, and no one knows how many years he has lived. He is called a respected god by the three realms, enjoying the highest courtesy, living alone in the sky, lying on the vast stars, watching the world's major events, but no one can accompany him anymore.
He stands too high, and no one can touch him.
"Do you feel... lonely?" Shen Li asked this question inexplicably. Xingzhi turned to look at her, was silent for a while, and smiled: "Why do you ask?"
"I don't know what you think, but if one day the Immortal Realm Lord, Rouya, and my generals and subordinates all become speechless tablets, and I have to live alone in the empty Immortal Realm Realm..." Shen Li paused, "I will definitely not survive."
Xingzhi smiled lightly: "You will get used to it, and I have a heavy responsibility. Whether it is loneliness or life and death, it is not under my control."
Shen Li looked at him: "Shouldn't God hold everything in the world in his palm?"
"I guess so." Xingzhi said, "But I am the only exception. God cannot have private feelings because his power is too strong, you probably know it, and life and death are not something I can control. Unless I turn into the energy of heaven and earth and stay in the mountains and rivers forever when my life ends, otherwise, I can't die."
Shen Li was stunned: "God also has... a day of death?"
"Naturally, all things have life and cannot die. Even gods cannot escape this. Although my life is long, it will eventually end. When that day comes, I will follow the power of Heaven and turn into a ray of vitality between heaven and earth, and merge into the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas. Although my divine form will be destroyed, my divine power will remain forever and continue to guard all things and stars."
Shen Li was stunned when he heard this: "In that case, then these gods have all died of old age and turned into a ray of vitality between heaven and earth?"
Xingzhi shook his head: "Thirty percent of them have reached the end of their lifespans, but the remaining seventy percent all had accidents before their lifespans ended. They did things that violated Heaven's will, were stripped of their divinity, and fell into reincarnation forever, experiencing all the sufferings of the world. Their divine forms are destroyed, all their divine powers are gone, and the magic they left between heaven and earth during their lifetime will also disappear." He looked up, "These spirit tablets can be regarded as the kindness of Heaven, leaving a little thought for the remaining people."
He watched with his own eyes the people around him leave one by one, and the number of tablets here gradually increased.
"That is to say, the gods who follow the way of heaven and die at the end of their life span will still have their divine power remain in the world, while the gods whose divinity is taken away by the way of heaven will leave nothing behind..." Shen Li was stunned, and suddenly a terrible thing flashed through his mind, "If something happens to you now and your divinity is taken away, then all your spells will disappear. As for Xu Tianyuan..."
Xingzhi nodded: "Xu Tianyuan is another space torn out by me. If my divinity is taken away, there will be no divine power to maintain the spells, and it will naturally disappear."
Shen Li's face sank: "Thousands of scorpion-tailed fox-like monsters will run out?"
"No." Xingzhi's lips curved slightly, "They will disappear with the disappearance of Xu Tianyuan, but at the same time, the Immortal Realm world will also be implicated by Xu Tianyuan and fall together."
Shen Li was shocked: "Why!"
"Even for gods, it is extremely difficult to open up another space as huge as that." Xingzhi waved his hand casually, and a ray of light flashed across his palm. "Even if it is opened up, it will be like light, fleeting. Only by relying on the power of mountains and rivers and borrowing the natural way can we create Xutianyuan. So I borrowed the power of the five elements of the Immortal Realm Realm and infused it with divine power to create Xutianyuan. From then on, the Immortal Realm Realm and Xutianyuan were connected together. Live and die together."
Shen Li stared at Xingzhi in disbelief, and said angrily: "You actually did such a thing without considering the future generations of the Immortal Realm Realm!" Connecting Xutianyuan and the Immortal Realm Realm together, if there is any turmoil in Xutianyuan one day, wouldn't the Immortal Realm Realm be the first to suffer!
"At that time, opening up another space was the fastest way to solve the chaos of monsters." Xingzhi's voice was slightly cold. Even now, he did not hesitate at all when talking about the decision made that year. "If we hadn't done that, the Immortal Realm Realm would have been gone by now."
Shen Li gritted her teeth. She knew that in a battle, sometimes sacrifices must be made for certain interests. But such sacrifices...
"You can't have any accidents." Shen Li gritted her teeth and said, "Not even a little bit, you must live to the end of your life."
Xingzhi smiled with his head down: "This is natural, not to mention that now I am the only god in Tianwaitian, and the entire Tianwaitian is maintained by my divine power. If something happens to me, Tianwaitian will overturn, and all the stars, stones and tiles will fall on the Nine Heavens, which will definitely cause the Nine Heavens to collapse and endanger the people of the world."
Xingzhi said it easily, but it weighed down Shen Li's heart even more. Thinking about what Youlan said to her, Shen Li lowered her eyebrows. She was right. Xingzhi must not get into trouble. No one could afford to lose him, just because he was no longer just himself. Such a heavy responsibility was really hard to bear...
"So." Xingzhi spoke softly, his voice was very calm, but his emotions surged. Even Shen Li, who was as slow as she was, could sense it. His eyes reflected the bright stars, and he said word by word, "Shen Li, I can't like you."
The warning in his words was so obvious that she didn't know who he was warning.
Shen Li's heart twitched for no reason, and she turned her head away: "God is joking. At this point, Shen Li dared not have any illusions about God. As long as God doesn't tease Shen Li from time to time..."
"I can't control it." Xingzhi suddenly interrupted Shen Li's words. He said such irresponsible words with a smile, "I can't control it, I want to tease you."
This guy...
Shen Li clenched her fists, suppressed the anger that surged up, turned her head, stared at Xingzhi, and said coldly, not even bothering to use the honorific title to save face: "What do you mean?" He said that he had a heavy responsibility and couldn't be emotional, but he was also the one who said this to hold her back. He was the one who pushed away, and he was also the one who held her tightly. Shen Li could not bear it any longer, "You are sick, right?"
Xingzhi nodded, "I guess I am sick."
Is this an admission of something...
Shen Li stared at him, and suddenly felt that there was such a moment, all kinds of emotions surged in her heart, but she could not find any words to say. The room was silent for a long time, and even the spirit tablets flew back to their own positions.
Shen Li slowly realized what Xingzhi meant, and then suddenly felt that this person was really despicable. His words were so ambiguous, but the meaning behind them was so clear - all emotions should be restrained.
But he said he couldn't do it, so... Shen Li suddenly nodded: "In that case." She took a deep breath, held the breath in her chest, stared at Xingzhi, and said in a sonorous and powerful voice, "I will definitely help the God to control this problem."
This was not something she could control alone, but what could she do? A person who shouldered the heavy responsibility of the world was cheating in front of her...
Then let her do it. There was nothing that Lord BiCang could not cut off.
Xingzhi chuckled, "Thank you, Your Highness." Xingzhi glanced sideways into Shen Li's dark pupils, which reflected the sky full of stars, making Xingzhi absent-minded for a moment. He turned his head and blinked, "I hope Your Highness... don't treat the symptoms and not the root cause."
Shen Li sneered, "I will definitely live up to your trust." She turned around and was about to leave, but Xingzhi suddenly called out again, "Your Highness..."
Shen Li paused and waited for a while before Xingzhi said, "Xingzhi has something else to ask of you." Without waiting for Shen Li to agree, he said, "I don't know how long I have lived or when my life will end, but if one day, my spirit and body disappear and turn into the vitality of heaven and earth, leaving a spirit tablet here, I hope Your Highness will come to visit and clean it up when you are free."
Even though she had made up her mind not to pay attention to Xingzhi, Shen Li couldn't help but look back slightly at this time: "Why me?"
Xingzhi smiled, "Because, you are so nice to look at."
Because, if there comes that day, after that, he still wants Shen Li to come and see him. She knows her behavior better than anyone else. Memories won't last long, but if you look at her often, you'll remember her for a longer time. If she forgets him early...then he... will be so lonely.
Chapter 48 Eighty-one bells
The Hundred Flowers Banquet will be held tomorrow. Shen Li has not seen Xingzhi since the conversation with Xingzhi that day. Even though they live under the same roof, it is very easy for two people with magical powers to avoid each other.
After that, Xingzhi still cooked and sent it to Shen Li's door, but Shen Li would not eat the food served at noon until the evening. After two days, Xingzhi stopped sending food.
However, Shen Li could not let herself go hungry. Although she did not like the immortals in heaven, she still had to go out every day. This day, she went to the venue of the Hundred Flowers Banquet and wanted to take some immortal fruits to fill her stomach. However, she did not expect that she had just taken a peach with her hand. When she turned around, the goddess Luo Tian was standing behind her and staring at her.
Shen Li cleared her throat and said, "The peaches in heaven are quite big." As she said that, she was about to throw the peach back. Youlan said, "This peach is not big. It comes from a peach tree that has been bearing fruit for a hundred years. It is not a rare thing. Your Majesty, you can try this peach and then try the peaches that have been bearing fruit for five hundred years. You will know which one is better."
Does this mean... that she can eat whatever she wants? Shen Li blinked and looked at Youlan. Youlan turned away unnaturally. She walked to Shen Li, picked up three peaches, took a pot of wine and stuffed it into Shen Li's arms, and walked away quickly with her head resting on her head.
Shen Li looked at the food in her arms and still hadn't reacted. What exactly does this goddess mean now? Does she want to choke her to death with these fairy peaches? Or does she want to frame her for stealing fairy fruit? There was a little fairy maid busy around her. Shen Li turned around and asked, "Is it not stealing if I take the things that your goddess stuffed into my mouth?"
The little fairy maid was startled: "Your Majesty, you are joking. Since it was given by the goddess, it is naturally not stealing."
Shen Li raised her eyebrows and decisively took a peach and put it in her mouth to chew.
They ate peaches and drank wine all the way back to West Garden. But when they walked into the room, Shen Li felt something was wrong. The power of the heaven was too strong. She couldn't open her eyes after falling on the bed. Shen Li pulled the quilt and buried her face in it and muttered: "I knew he had bad intentions and was waiting for me here..."
Shen Li didn't wake up again until the bell for the opening of the Hundred Flowers Banquet rang through the nine heavens the next day. It rang for a full ninety-nine and eighty-one times before waking Shen Li up. Shen Li stuck her head out of the quilt, looked at the sky outside, and woke up immediately.
She came here on behalf of the Immortal Realm world, and it would be a big joke to be late. She turned over and sat up, quickly tied up her hair, pushed open the door, and Xingzhi was gone.
That guy didn't even call her! Shen Li's heart was filled with anger, but she suppressed it helplessly. It would be better if they didn't even have the relationship of roommates... When she reached the front yard, Shen Li wanted to fly on the clouds, but suddenly a red light flashed across the sky. Shen Li frowned.
At first, she thought it was a firework from the heaven, but as the red light got closer, it actually rushed straight to Xiyuan. Shen Li frowned, still hesitating whether to stop it, and then she saw the red light suddenly speed up and fall on the roof of the lobby of Xiyuan. With a "boom", the earth trembled, the lobby of Xiyuan collapsed, and the hot flames spread instantly, burning an orange-red sky.
The heaven... was attacked? This thought flashed through her mind, and Shen Li looked up into the distance, only to see the fireball shot from nowhere and smashed towards Xiyuan again, and one of the places where it fell was the wing room where the spirit tablet was placed! The genuine smile on Xingzhi's lips passed through Shen Li's heart. She almost didn't hesitate at all, and her figure flashed and landed on the roof of the square wing.
The Immortal Realmic energy washed away in the marrow washing pool has not been recovered yet. Shen Li shouted softly and barely supported a semicircular barrier to protect the house below. However, the power of this fireball was completely beyond her imagination. It was extremely hot and carried such a huge pressure. If it weren't for the fire nature of the phoenix, it might have been burned to ashes before she took on this pressure. There was a "click" under her feet, which was the crisp sound of tiles breaking.
Shen Li gritted her teeth, and the red light in her eyes was bright. She shouted in a deep voice, and the magic power around her body turned into a wave of golden light, carrying the overwhelming force to rush straight to the fireball, shattering it from the inside, turning it into dust-like fire points, and scattering around the wing. Shen Li stood alone on the roof, and blood slowly dripped from her hanging hands. The wound on her back was broken.
However, there was no time for people to rest, and the fireball came towards them again. Shen Li's face was solemn, he didn't dodge or avoid, his fists were clenched, his eyes were full of determination not to retreat.
After the eighty-one bells rang, the Heavenly Lord bowed slightly and said to Xingzhi: "God, please take the seat." In such an occasion, even the Heavenly Lord couldn't sit in the highest position, but no one knew that Xingzhi hated to sit in that position the most.
The white jade seat on the steps was too cold... A red light passed through the sky, and the eyes of the immortals followed it. One immortal smiled and said: "Whose car is that? It looks so majestic and beautiful." Before he finished speaking, there was a loud noise, and the sky in the west turned bright red. The top of the cloud surrounded by fairy mist trembled, and the cups and plates fell over, making a mess. The fairy maidens couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice.
However, after the panic, there was a terrible silence. In the comfortable heaven, no one reacted to what happened at this time. Xingzhi didn't sit on the white jade seat. He looked up and saw several fireballs chasing the previous red light in the distance.
His brows sank, and he felt a little panic in his heart. "Report!" The guard's drawn-out voice sounded particularly harsh in the silent Hundred Flowers Banquet. He ran all the way in a gorgeous and cumbersome armor, which made a crisp ding-dong sound. The immortals liked music, but no one had the heart to appreciate the sound of jade at this time.
They only heard the guard shouting in panic: "There is... there is a fire attack! It's going to the West Garden!" The immortals were shocked. The guard's voice was hoarse and trembling: "It's burning!" After the breeze passed, no one saw when the person in the seat disappeared. When everyone came to their senses, there was no trace of Xingzhi Shenjun at the Hundred Flowers Banquet. The Heavenly Lord came to his senses and hurriedly summoned the generals to assign tasks. He personally led a team of people to the West Garden at a rapid speed. Lord BiCang attended the banquet on behalf of the Immortal Realm Realm, but he had not arrived yet and should still be in the West Garden. If she was attacked in the Heaven Realm, it would be difficult to explain to the Immortal Realm Realm.
Moreover, the West Garden also enshrined the spirit tablets of the ancient gods...
Looking at the anxious look of Lord Xingzhi, we know that those spirit tablets are extremely important to him and none of them can be lost. If the guards are not in time, and Lord Xingzhi gets angry, it will be bad. Fireballs fell one after another, and the tiles under Shen Li's feet were all shattered. She cursed Xingzhi and the idiots in the Heaven Realm more than once in her heart. Such an important place didn't know to set up a barrier to guard it, and it has been so long since the incident, didn't anyone see that something was wrong here!
Such a high-profile attack with fireballs in the air, no one went to find the attacker and kill him! The idle people in the Heaven Realm have really been comfortable for too long, and their brains have been used to grow fat! If the Immortal Realm Realm wants to attack the Heaven Realm one day, Shen Li feels that she can make these drunkards surrender in one day! Another fireball fell, this time with even greater force than before. Shen Li heard the roof beams creaking under her feet.
Obviously, this room could not hold out for much longer, and these attacks were not over yet... Shen Li gritted her teeth, feeling extremely aggrieved in her heart. She had always been good at attacking but not at defending, and she liked to fight quickly. It would be better to let her be chopped by the enemy directly than to let her hold up the barrier for such a long time today.
The wound on her back kept splitting, and the blood had soaked her clothes. Shen Li could no longer hold on due to excessive blood loss and lack of mana. Her body seemed to be hollowed out. Fireballs hit the barrier she had set up, and the huge pressure made her knees slightly bent. What was more troublesome was the burning flames. Without mana, the fragments of the fireballs pierced into Shen Li's thin barrier, leaving a red mark on her cheek.
However, Shen Li never cared about skin injuries, but was afraid that the sparks would burn into her eyes... As she was thinking, a spark whistled towards her pupils. Shen Li subconsciously closed her eyes and lowered her head to avoid it.
However, at this moment of trance, another fireball hit the place where Shen Li was standing. The huge impact caused Shen Li's feet to soften, and one knee knelt hard on the beam. With a "click", the beam broke and a dent was made where Shen Li was kneeling.
Suffering from this sudden attack, Shen Li's already unstable breath became even more chaotic, and her blood was surging. Even though she tried her best to suppress it, blood still flowed from the corner of her mouth. However, she didn't know if it was an illusion at this critical moment, as if a cool air jumped out from the broken beams, wrapped around her body, and relieved the burning pain.
But at this time, Shen Li had no mind to feel this coolness.
She just felt that this was the first time in her life that she was forced into such a situation without even seeing the enemy. It was really aggrieved! Shen Li was angry, and when she looked up, she saw a fireball bigger than before coming quickly. The word "bad" flashed through her mind, and suddenly she felt a chill in her breath, and the huge pressure was removed in an instant. The white hem passed in front of her eyes, and Shen Li, who was kneeling on one knee, only saw a back figure in the backlight. Because he had to attend the Hundred Flowers Banquet, his bun on his head was more formal than usual, but he still looked lazy. When the hot wind blew, his clothes and long hair flew together, which was very chic. His figure blocked all the heat waves and pressure. Shen Li covered his chest with one hand, feeling that the heart that was still beating rapidly due to the battle just now was soothed and relaxed.
This back figure... can bring too much sense of security. For Lord BiCang, it was a sense of security that he rarely experienced...
The heat wave was approaching, and the huge fireball rushed over with the force that seemed to turn everything into ashes. Xingzhi's face was calm, and he just stretched out his hand lightly, and the fireball suddenly stopped, like a vicious dog with a noose around its neck, struggling to the limit of the rope, and could no longer move forward.
"Get out!" Xingzhi shouted in a low voice, and waved his sleeves, and saw that the huge fireball was easily thrown back at the speed and trajectory it came from... thrown... back. Shen Li roughly understood why the way of heaven does not allow gods to have emotions.
If such a powerful force is used for private affairs at will, wouldn't the world be disrupted? The side where the fireball flew back was ignited with blazing flames, and sure enough, no more fireballs came. Thinking of the other party's flustered appearance at this time, Shen Li felt funny in her heart, but as soon as her heart relaxed, she felt more tired all over. She lost too much blood and could no longer control her body.
She leaned back and rolled down from the dilapidated roof. But before she fell to the ground, she was grabbed by someone as expected, and unexpectedly, the person who grabbed her did more than just grab her. The warm palm was placed on her back, which had long been soaked, and the wound on her cheek was gently stroked by someone with a cool hand. Xingzhi's face enlarged in front of her eyes. Even though Shen Li was too distracted to see anything else at this time, she understood Xingzhi's eyes. He was angry.
He was saying, "Shen Li, don't you want to live?"
"I can't die."
She heard her own unclear voice, "I'm just a little tired."
"For this house, you force yourself to be like this..." He seemed to be trying his best to suppress his emotions, "How heartless you are."
"I can't..." Shen Li's eyes were about to close. Her tired muscles couldn't support her head. She fell forward, her forehead against Xingzhi's shoulder, and her voice was small and vague, "I can't... let you have no thoughts at all."
Xingzhi's shining eyes and warm smile when he saw those spirit tablets made Shen Li remember them deeply in her heart after just one glance, and she could never forget them. Xingzhi's fingertips trembled slightly, as if he had been struggling for a long time. He wrapped one hand around Shen Li's quilt and pressed the back of her head with the other hand, pressing her into his arms.
The force was sometimes tight and sometimes loose. He... couldn't control himself. It turns out that there really is such a person, who can't even control the strength in front of her... His fingers gently touched her hair, and his lips fell right beside Shen Li's ear.
Xingzhi lowered his eyes and lowered his voice. He was three parts helpless and seven parts bitter. He only said to Shen Li: "My lord, are you really helping me control it..." The Heavenly Lord led the guards and hurried over. Except for the wing room that Shen Li was desperately protecting, other places had been burned to ashes.
Xingzhi God Lord held Lord BiCang in front of a pile of broken walls and tiles. He turned his back to everyone, and no one could see the expression on his face. The Heavenly Lord was slightly surprised: "Xingzhi God Lord..."
"Don't come over." Xingzhi said lightly, "I'm helping Lord BiCang heal his injuries."
He said, "No one is allowed to come over." Sure enough, no one dared to step forward. Xingzhi held Shen Li in front of everyone, holding the normally-looLord BiCang King. Everyone then saw that, compared to the Godly Lord, Lord Bicang was actually so petite...
By the way, Lord Bicang was also a woman, she was supposed to be slender and petite...
Chapter 49 Return to the Heaven Beyond Heaven
The Heavenly Lord ordered a thorough investigation of the fire attack on the Heaven Realm. However, it was not until three days later that the scene of the fireball thrown back by Xingzhi was found in a corner of the north of the Heaven Realm. There was no one alive.
People were lying there for people to find. The Heavenly Soldiers had been searching for so long, but their inefficiency was so low that all the knowledgeable immortals were worried. What was even more worrying was that the guys who attacked the Heaven Realm this time...
were not from the Immortal Realm Realm, nor were they monsters, but from the North Sea Clan who had always been subservient to the deep sea in the north. They were an extremely docile and peaceful clan that had never provoked a war for thousands of years, but this time they attacked the Heaven Realm like crazy. What unbearable things had the Heaven Realm... done in the Mortal Realm?
The Heavenly Lord was furious and immediately sent people to the North Sea to investigate. However, there was no news from the North Sea yet, and the Heavenly Lord turned pale when he saw an urgent letter from the Immortal Realm Realm five days ago...
The West Garden collapsed, and Shen Li moved back to Furongjun's mansion, but this time, in order to prevent someone from taking advantage of her serious injuries to harm her, Furongpersonally added a barrier to the room where Shen Li lived, and Xingzhi moved into Furongjun's mansion without hesitation. With the two distinguished guests staying at home, Furongcould no longer do whatever he wanted in the mansion, and he was very unhappy.
That day he was calling an acquaintance immortal to play chess with him, and the other party laughed at him: "Look, Lord BiCang was injured, and the Heavenly Lord was furious, but Lord Xingzhi treated his injury and took good care of him.
Before they even got married, Lord Xingzhi and the Heavenly Lord had already propped up Lord BiCang's waist. It seems that the face of the Immortal Realm world is very big. When they get married in the future, Lord Furong, you...tsk tsk tsk."
When Lord Furong heard this, his face turned pale. He swept the chess pieces and threw them to the ground, angrily saying: "Do I need you to make fun of me! Did I ask you to come here to make trouble for me? Get out!" The other party laughed instead of getting angry. When Lord Furong was so angry that he was furious, he said A chaotic and rapid footsteps hurriedly walked into the yard.
Youlan's face was solemn. Seeing the scene here with Furong, she said coldly: "Where is the Lord Bicang Shenli?" Furong was stunned and rubbed her forehead in distress: "I say, Royal sister, can you please stop causing trouble? They are now protected by the God, how can we get any good out of them? Just shut up and go back." Youlan's eyes were cold, staring at Furong and asked again: "Where is the Lord Bicang Shenli?" Furong realized that something was wrong, and hesitated: "In... in the wing room in the backyard. In order to recuperate, I set up a barrier for her..."
"Take me there." After saying that, she hurried forward. After taking two steps, she didn't see Furong following her. She turned around and glared at him fiercely. Furong was frightened and hurried forward to lead Youlan.
As he walked, he asked, "What happened?" Youlan ignored him. When they reached the gate of the courtyard, Furongsuddenly stopped and said, "I'll open the barrier. You can go in. I won't go. I'm afraid of seeing the God of Xingzhi..."
Youlan did n't hesitate at all and stepped into the yard. The barrier closed behind her. This time, it seemed that Furonghad spent some time on the place where Shen Li was recuperating. The winding path led to a secluded place, and there were fragrant plants on both sides of the path, which separated the noise from the outside world. Youlan's steps became faster and faster, but she stopped when she was about to walk out of the fragrant woods, because she vaguely saw the God of Xingzhi and Shen Li standing at the door through the shadows of the trees. Shen Li looked unhappy and the two were arguing.
"Why should we take so long to treat superficial wounds? It's just a waste of time!" Shen Li stood in the doorway, and Xingzhi blocked the doorway with his hands folded, his expression indifferent, which made Shen Li's anxiety even more prominent. "Let me out!" "You can't go out until your wounds are healed." Xingzhi said indifferently.
"The wounds are healed! Those fireballs are not as powerful as imagined..." "If it weren't for the overflow of the spirit energy in the room, and my friends' divine power to protect your heart, do you think you can still speak so loudly today?" Shen Li was stunned, and suddenly remembered that there was a moment when she felt refreshed all over her body. It turned out that... it was the power of those spirits that leaked out to protect her...
Shen Li felt that those ancient gods were really amazing. Even when only a tablet was left, they could still find time to protect a few people...
Shen Li continued: "In that case, I'd like to trouble you to thank Shen Li next time you go to worship. In addition, since I was protected at that time, and my wounds are almost healed now, let me out quickly." "No."
Shen Li was furious and asked word by word: "Why are you locking me up!" "What are you doing outside?"
Shen Li laughed angrily, "Five days have passed, and the Heaven Realm has not caught the mastermind yet. Why go to the North Sea to gather information? Even if the person who went to gather information set out the day before yesterday, he could have run back and forth from the Heaven Realm to the North Sea more than a dozen times in the past two days.
Did the person who went to gather information get lost in the water?" Shen Li spitted, "What efficiency!"
Xingzhi smiled, "The people who should be anxious are not anxious, but you are anxious here." "I'm almost going blind being locked up here!"
Shen Li gritted his teeth and muttered to himself, "If it were in the past, I would definitely take up my gun and wipe out the lair of those bastards." "You were beaten up and you feel unwilling to get it back." Xingzhi smiled and exposed her cover-up.
Shen Li looked away. Because she was angry, her mouth was subconsciously pouted, but the arc was very small, and it was not noticeable if you didn't look carefully. But from Xingzhi's angle, he could see her slightly bulging cheeks.
The uneven skin color was the mark of her previous burns. Thinking of the guy who fell in his arms that day, Xingzhi almost subconsciously pressed the skin with his thumb and rubbed it twice. Shen Li has a very good recovery ability.
Whether it is inside or outside the body, the skin under the fingertip has completely recovered in just five days, except for a little color... "I will help you get it back." He said softly. Shen Li was slightly stunned by the hoarse voice.
She looked up at Xingzhi, and then "slapped" his hand open. She stared at him solemnly, her eyes cold and rational. There were three finger marks on Xingzhi's wrist. He looked at Shen Li for a while, then lowered his hands, letting the wide sleeves cover the marks.
He smiled, and for a moment he didn't know what to say. "Lord God."
Youlan suddenly spoke and walked out of the fragrant woods. She bowed and saluted: "Lord God, Prince." The two looked at Youlan. Before they could ask, Youlan hurriedly said, "Prince, the Heavenly Lord invites you to the Lingxiao Palace for an important matter."
Hearing the solemnity in Youlan's words, Shen Li frowned: "Lead the way." Xingzhi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why can't you ask someone to send a message?" Youlan was silent: "Lord God, it is indeed an important matter."
Xingzhi nodded: "In that case, let's go together." In the Lingxiao Palace, the civil and military officials of the heavenly realm stood on both sides. The Heavenly Lord sat on the dragon throne with a serious face.
Seeing Xingzhi and Shen Li coming together, he frowned slightly, asked someone to sit in the first seat on the left, and then said: "Prince Bi Cang, here is a letter from the Immortal Realm Realm, take a look."
The attendant presented the letter to Shen Li. Shen Li took it, glanced at it, and suddenly his face turned pale and his voice became stern: "When did the letter come?"
"It was received five days ago." The Heavenly Lord sighed, "Unfortunately, due to the fire attack, the immortals were busy and neglected this letter. Someone presented it to me today."
Shen Li's face became even colder, and he said, "Heavenly Lord, what happened?" "
The capital of the Immortal Realm Realm was also attacked by the North Sea clan. The Immortal Realm King was in a coma, and dozens of Immortal Realm generals were sacrificed. In addition, there were conflicts in various places... The situation is extremely dangerous."
With every word the Heavenly Lord said, Shen Li's brows tightened. This is the battle report from five days ago. The situation will only get worse now. Shen Li has nothing to say about the efficiency of the Heaven Realm. However, any complaints about the allies at this time are useless. The more times like this, the more calm analysis is needed... Shen Li closed his eyes, cleared the surging emotions in his heart, and spoke coldly in a moment: "It seems that the attack on the Heaven Realm five days ago was a feint, a method of the other party to attack the east and attack the west."
If they really wanted to attack the Heaven Realm, how could they only arrange such a point for launching fireballs, and how could they attack a secluded place like Xiyuan? The other party just made a feint, which made everyone in the Heaven Realm run up and down, making a mess and having no time to take care of other things. Naturally, they could not help the Immortal Realm Realm. Its main forces attacked the Immortal Realm Realm... But... The Immortal Realm Lord was in a coma, and dozens of generals died...
Such heavy casualties, this is not what the Immortal Realm Realm should have. It is different from the Heaven Realm. Shen Li knows very well that those generals are elites picked from ten thousand...
"Shen Li begs the Heavenly Lord to allow me to return to the Immortal Realm Realm immediately."
"Of course." The Heavenly Lord waved his hand, and someone else presented several boxes of pills. "The Immortal Realm Lord is unconscious, so he must have been seriously injured. Lord BiCang, please take these boxes of pills back to the Immortal Realm Realm and give them to the Immortal Realm Lord. I have already ordered people to recruit soldiers, and they will be able to help the Immortal Realm Realm suppress the rebellion and eliminate the bandits in no time."
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty." Shen Li took the pills and turned to leave without any delay.
Seeing Shen Li's figure disappear at the entrance of Lingxiao Palace, his movements and eyebrows moved slightly, and suddenly he heard the Heavenly Lord calling beside him: "Lord God, what do you think about this matter?" "
It is no coincidence that the Immortal Realm Realm's and the others were attacked. If we infer according to common sense, this should be a struggle for power. The North Sea Clan may also be a borrowed cover."
The Heavenly Lord nodded: "Lord God and I think the same thing. The Immortal Realm Realm has been subservient to the Heaven Realm for many years, and there are many dissatisfied people among them. Some people are secretly making trouble and want to overthrow the current regime of the Immortal Realm Realm. It is not surprising to establish a new king... But then the new king must be against the Heaven Realm, which is a huge trouble."
The civil and military officials were a little noisy for a while, and they were all whispering with the people around them.
The Heavenly Lord turned his head and looked at Xingzhi: "Your Majesty has been busy and tired recently, and the Hundred Flowers Banquet was not successfully held. It is really our incompetence."
If it were usual, Xingzhi would have to say a few polite words, but today he did not say a word, but seemed to agree with the words of the Heavenly Lord, silently saying "You are incompetent."
The Heavenly Lord was silent, and all the officials followed suit. Finally, the Heavenly Lord coughed twice and said with a little embarrassment: "Your Majesty has left the Heaven Beyond Heaven for a long time, but the Heaven Beyond Heaven is the source of the world's pure air. These days, the heaven is a little chaotic, and the evil spirits are a little heavy... Your Majesty..."
"I will return to the Heaven Beyond Heaven tomorrow." Xingzhi said lightly and left with a wave of his sleeves.
There was silence in the Lingxiao Palace for a moment, and the Heavenly Lord said: "After this incident, many shortcomings of the heaven were exposed. I think everyone has seen it. After all, they have been comfortable for too long. Even such a small matter has caused chaos in the Nine Heavens. All the immortals, what should be investigated and cleared, it is time to rectify it."
All the officials nodded in agreement.
Shen Li just walked to the South Heaven Gate. She didn't know what she was thinking. She turned her head inexplicably and suddenly saw Xingzhi standing ten feet behind her, looking at her calmly. Shen Li clasped her fists and bowed deeply: "Thank you for your care these days, Shen Li will take her leave." Xingzhi's mouth moved, lowered his head and smiled, and whispered softly: "Now I can control it well."
I don't know if Shen Li heard this. She turned her head without any attachment. Her long hair tied up high drew a clean arc in the air. She jumped down the South Heaven Gate.
After many days, Xingzhi thought more than once, why didn't he call her back that day, why did he let her go so easily...
He obviously had something to say...
Chapter 50 Eaten by the Enemy?
The moment he stepped into the Immortal Realm world, Shen Li felt that the air was three times more polluted than usual. Different from the usual miasma, there was now a murderous and violent aura everywhere. Even the people in the capital were restless.
Shen Li walked towards the Immortal Realm Palace from the central avenue of the capital with a calm face. The broken houses along the way told the panic of the Immortal Realm world that day. The white flags hung messily and desertedly on the roadside. It didn't look like the Immortal Realm world's capital, but more like a ghost city, full of death.
In front of the palace gate, the guards wore white cloth strips on their heads, and the expressions on their faces were not as calm as usual, but a bit of forced majesty. The guard on the left side of the palace gate saw someone walking straight towards the palace gate, and did not see who it was. He just raised his spear and shouted: "Stop, stop!"
Shen Li frowned: "Why are you so panicked!" Her voice was slightly harsh, shocking the two guards. When they saw who it was, one of the guards curled his lips, not knowing whether he was crying or laughing: "Prince...Prince...Prince is back." He knelt on the ground with weak legs and kowtowed twice, "Prince is back! Prince is back!"
The other guard stared at Shen Li silently and wiped his tears.
Shen Li clenched his fists: "What a disgrace! Put your emotions in order for me!" Her voice was majestic, "No matter what happens now, as a soldier, you are not allowed to cry when you are on duty. If I see someone crying and shaking the morale of the army next time, I will kill him!"
The two guards kowtowed and agreed.
Shen Li then softened her tone a little: "Where is the Immortal Realm Lord?"
"My Lord, the Immortal Realm Lord is now resting in the bedroom..."
"Has he not woken up yet?"
"Has he not woken up yet."
Shen Li felt her heart burning.
The Immortal Realm Lord was powerful and very good at strategy. He was always protected by people with green faces and red faces. It was very difficult to hurt him. This injury, was it so serious... Shen Li almost ran to the Immortal Realm Lord's bedroom.
Before she got close, she saw maids coming in and out of the bedroom. The water basins in their hands splashed water while running, staining the ground with bright red.
Could it be that the Immortal Realm Lord's injury has worsened? Shen Li became more and more anxious and rushed straight into the hall. Someone kept calling Shen Li in her ears. They were officials from the Immortal Realm world. However, Shen Li had no time to respond to them. She walked around the screen and went to the inner room as soon as she lifted the curtain. The medical officer blocking the door could not persuade her.
The Immortal Realm king was lying on the bed, his clothes still on, and there was a little blood on his neck. A medical officer pressed his neck with a clean cloth, but soon the cloth got wet, so he had to ask the maid to wash it, and then replace it with a clean one.
The blood stains on his clothes dried and got wet for the first time. He did not take off the mask on his face, but only removed the lower jaw, revealing his lips, so that the servants could feed him medicine. The color of his lips revealed his poor physical condition. The color of his lips... was blue.
Shen Li took out the pills in his arms and said loudly: "Here are a few boxes of immortal pills given by the Heavenly Lord. Medical officers, come and see if there are any that can be used now."
As soon as these words came out, the medical officer beside him did not care about etiquette, and hurriedly took the pills in Shen Li's hand, poured them out one by one, carefully identified them, and then took one of them and put it into the Immortal Realm king's mouth.
In a short while, the blue color on the Immortal Realm king's lips faded slightly, and the blood on his neck slowly stopped. "This elixir works! This elixir works!"
The medical officers were ecstatic. Some of them bowed to Shen Li and said, "Your Majesty is truly a blessing to the Immortal Realm world." "Stop the flattery. What happened to the Immortal Realm Lord's injury?" The medical officers looked at each other. After a while, an old medical officer replied, "Your Majesty, the Immortal Realm Lord was only injured by a sword on his neck.
However, this sword was not serious. It only injured the flesh. The real cause of the Immortal Realm Lord's coma was... poison." Shen Li frowned: "What poison?"
"It seems to be a kind of miasma. When poisoned, it can make people lose their minds and then faint. If the poisoned person has wounds on his body, the wounds will not heal and the bleeding will not stop.
But this miasma is slightly different from other miasma. It seems to cause great harm to the bodies of the Immortal Realms, but will not pose a big threat to other things. It is just like a poison refined for the Immortal Realms."
Miasma ... Shen Li couldn't help but think of the poison that Fu Sheng had given her when she was in Yangzhou City before, but the poison was not too strong at that time, and Xingzhi also used a little magic power to dispel the miasma.
Is this poison now related to the poison at that time... Shen Li stayed by the side of the Immortal Realm Lord for a while, and saw that after taking the elixir, the blue color on the Immortal Realm Lord's lips completely faded, and the paleness slowly emerged. Shen Li could imagine how pale his face would be after taking off the mask.
She looked at him quietly for a while and clenched her fists: "Where are Qingyan and Chirong?" The guard beside her replied: "The two messengers did not show up in this battle." Shen Li's face sank. It was too coincidental, just like it was planned... She was silent for a while and asked: "Those generals... where are the generals who died now?" "They are still in the military camp outside the city. It may take a few days to bury them." "Why?"
The guard said in a very low voice: "According to military regulations, after a war, the soldiers must be buried first before the generals can be buried." Shen Li turned to look at him in a daze: "Five days have passed, and the soldiers have not been buried yet?"
The guard lowered his head and said nothing. Shen Li's mind was blank for a moment. She stood up, took a deep breath slowly, closed her eyes, and calmed herself down. "Guard the Immortal Realm Lord well and make sure he wakes up as soon as possible."
After that, she left the Immortal Realm Lord's bedroom, and without caring about any etiquette or rules, she rode a cloud in the Immortal Realm Palace and headed straight for the military camp outside the city. Before getting close, one could smell a deep smell of decay in the wind. The closer one got, the more one could hear people crying, some hoarse, some shrill, unbearable to listen to.
Shen Li flew over the area very quickly and landed in the military camp. The soldiers were busy and no one saw her. Shen Li grabbed a soldier and asked, "Where are the generals?" The soldier's eyes were dull. He looked up at Shen Li for a long time before light slowly shone in his eyes, "Your Highness..."
He called out in disbelief, and then seeing Shen Li was still there, he was so excited that he held Shen Li's hand, "Your Highness...Your Highness..." His face flushed and he shouted, "Your Highness is back! Your Highness is back!"
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked over here, and saw that Shen Li was indeed standing there.
Everyone was overjoyed, but listening to their cheers, Shen Li's mood became even heavier.
The Immortal Realm world is not a loose group without rules, and these soldiers should not act like they see anyone as a savior. They should be orderly and act according to the planned plan no matter what happens. They are usually like this.
Even if they are defeated, they will not behave like this. But this time... It seems that the situation is more serious than expected. Shen Li was thinking, and suddenly saw two generals walking quickly in front of her. Shen Li immediately went forward: "General Dao Mu, General Shi Fang..."
She just greeted them, and before she could say anything, the two middle-aged generals knelt down in front of her with a "thump".
"I am incompetent!"
"I am guilty."
They slammed their foreheads to the ground with great force, expressing their extremely unwilling anger and irreparable regret.
"General..." Shen Li's face moved.
Even though he told himself to stay calm at this moment, he was still moved by the kowtow of these two veterans. How big a blow would it take to make the proud soldiers of the Immortal Realm world so depressed? She reached out and helped the two generals up, "Let Shen Li understand what happened in the Immortal Realm world first."
The two veterans slowly stood up and led Shen Li to the back of the military camp, explaining, "Five days ago, a group of people suddenly attacked from the south."
Dao Mu's expression was so dejected that he could hardly continue speaking. Shen Li was surprised, and finally Shi Fang took over the conversation and said, "The other side only has two hundred people..."
Shen Li was shocked and couldn't believe it: "How many?"
"Two hundred people."
Shen Li suddenly understood why the soldiers were so depressed. The capital guards had a little more than 100,000 soldiers, and the generals of all sizes must have more than two hundred people, and so many soldiers were trampled to such an extent by just two hundred people.
"What is the background of the other side?" Shen Li's voice was slightly hoarse. It must be said that even if she had never experienced a battle, she was still shocked to hear this number.
"They are holding the flag of the North Sea Clan. The soldiers are all big and strong. They don't wear any armor and go into battle bare-chested. They don't use any weapons and fight with their bare hands. They either break the opponent's neck or beat them to death. Some even rip people in half with great strength." Shi Fang's voice was flat, but even if he said these words so calmly, it was still shocking.
"Their skin seems to be very different from that of ordinary people. Ordinary soldiers' swords and guns can hardly penetrate it. Only generals with a little Taoist cultivation can infuse magic power into their weapons and still hurt them a little."
"Are there any dead bodies left?"
The two generals looked at each other and said, "No, but I can be sure that at least 30 enemies were beheaded, but their bodies were taken back by the enemy. Only one enemy was captured by the Immortal Realm Lord and blasted into pulp."
Shen Li pondered for a moment. The description of the two generals made her think of the three burly men she met in the Yangzhou City Wall barrier when she was capturing the Earth Immortal Mountain God. If it was them, there would be 200 people, and their strength should not be underestimated. Thinking of the mysterious Fu Sheng, Shen Li asked, "Do they have a leader?"
"It's a very young man. He looks like an ordinary person, but his sword skills are weird, and the Immortal Realm Lord was injured by his sword."
Shen Li's mind immediately appeared Fu Sheng's figure. Thinking of this, it makes sense. Those burly men are his subordinates, and the miasma is also his thing, but how could he be a member of the North Sea clan? Previously, he captured the earth immortals and mountain gods in the human world. Now, he went to great lengths to feign an attack on the heavens and then attacked the Immortal Realm world...
Shen Li paused and murmured, "He attacked the Immortal Realm world... Why?"
Dao Mu heard her mumbling and clenched his fists, "The Immortal Realm Lord's Golden Seal was taken away by him."
The Golden Seal is the symbol of the Immortal Realm world's political power. Thinking of the riots that occurred in various parts of the Immortal Realm world at the same time, Shen Li's eyebrows sank. Is it really to seize power? But what kind of power can be seized by just taking away a golden seal...
Shen Li was thinking about it when he arrived at the mourning hall where the general's body was placed. Shen Li's face became solemn and he stepped in. There were many generals inside, and everyone made way for Shen Li to pass. A row of coffins, dozens of corpses.
Shen Li could call out the names of the people lying here, but now she couldn't recognize some of them, some of them were incomplete, some of them were unrecognizable, and some...
Shen Li stopped in front of a coffin. There was only a sword and some broken pieces of armor in the coffin, and the bloodstains on them looked creepy. "Who is this?" she asked softly.
"It's General Mofang."
The general behind him answered, "He fought desperately on the battlefield and beheaded three enemies.
In the end... he was surrounded by several enemies... and was eaten alive..." Mofang... was... eaten... by the enemy ?
