Chapter 925: Demon Venerable Saves the Emperor
That night, Sun Changkong and Xuan Ang Baoshuai returned to their residence, and when they saw the other party's severed shoulder, Sun Changkong's heart was quite uncomfortable.
"Bao Shuai, I'm really useless, if I can go back to the sky sooner, maybe this arm of yours will be saved. ”
Looking at Sun Changkong's self-reproachful appearance, Xuan Angbao patted his arm with a smile and said, "Hey, for those of us who have lived a life of fighting and killing all year round, this is really nothing. Compared with my injury, it is really a pity for Qu Bing. ”
Hearing the other party speak like this, Sun Changkong couldn't help but say: "Since Baoshuai is so unbearable, then why do you ......?"
"Hehe, you want to say why I beat him to that half-dead appearance, right? If I had done it, maybe he wouldn't have been able to get into the military tent. ”
Sun Changkong raised his eyebrows, and couldn't help but say, "Baoshuai, do you mean that it was not you who injured Qu Bing Waffle, but someone else?"
"That's right, that's what I meant. And the reason why I brought him back was to uncover the hypocritical mask of that murderer in public. But ......"
"But what?" Sun Changkong then asked.
"However, I didn't expect that he would be so unscrupulous, and in front of so many people, he would dare to openly kill people and kill people. ”
At this moment, Sun Changkong's eyes almost popped out, he looked at Xuan Ang Baoshuai's beast-like eyes, and said word by word: "You mean, the person who secretly instructed Qu Bing Waffle to sneak attack you before, and seriously injured Qu Bing Waffle, is the general king?"
At this time, Xuan Ang Baoshuai did not speak, but nodded silently. After learning the truth, Sun Changkong immediately stood up from the bed with a "whoosh".
"Why did he do this, is there any holiday between you and the king?"
Hearing Sun Changkong's question, Xuan Ang Baoshuai couldn't help but sigh: "Actually, I don't want to mention this matter anymore, and even I myself once thought that the king had let go of this matter and was no longer obsessed. Brother proved that he was really narrow-minded, even if I tried my best to do things for the Penglai Continent, he wouldn't believe me. ”
"This ...... Otherwise, why would he want you to become one of the four great marshals?"
Sun Changkong's words made Xuan Ang Baoshuai laugh out loud, and it could be heard that his laughter was more unimaginably desolate than helpless. At this moment, he seemed to have aged a lot, and his eyes as bright and sharp as knives had become dim and cloudy.
"I'm not from Penglai Continent, I'm just like you, I'm a citizen of this land. ”
Sun Changkong pointed to the land under his feet and said, "Here, the Rising Continent? It turns out that you are from the Rising Continent, which really surprised me." But, good manner, why did you leave your homeland and go to a completely different country?"
Xuan Ang Baoshuai sighed again, and then said: "Do you remember that when you and I first met, I told you that you and one of my old friends looked very imaginative, so we could see each other at first sight, and you should be able to feel my attitude towards you." ”
I don't know why, being mentioned by Xuan Ang Dingshuai, Sun Changkong actually felt a sense of shyness, and he didn't even dare to raise his eyes, for fear of being discovered by the other party.
"This ...... Alas, it's only because I look like your friend that you're showing favor like this, which is really a little disappointing!"
Looking at Sun Changkong's aggrieved expression, Xuan Ang Baoshuai smiled: "But don't worry, you are you, he is him, you two are originally different people, I will not confuse you." Besides, my friendship with that person had completely disappeared a thousand years ago, otherwise I wouldn't have followed the king to the Penglai Continent. ”
It was getting late outside, and when Sun Changkong saw the moon rising in the ventilation hole above the military tent, he couldn't help yawning, and then said, "I said Baoshuai, can we lie down first." I'm also a little tired from the long journey these days. You don't know, in the ethereal clouds, I almost died in the explosion. ”
"Oh, so good, I regret not being there. By the way, did the Demon Emperor really appear?"
"Well, I heard it's ......"
In this way, the two of them were like before, Sun Changkong slept on the bed, while Xuan Ang Baoshuai lay on the ground, not afraid of the cold at night. The two of you said one sentence to me, the voice became smaller and smaller, and in the end, no one spoke, and both fell asleep. That night, they slept soundly.
In the Demon Realm, under the assignment of the Demon Emperor, the Demon Venerable and his three envoys from the Demon World embarked on the journey to the Valley of the Falling Stars, that is, the Demon Star Clan. The four of them were extremely fast and sleepless, and they rushed to the Valley of the Falling Star just before sunset that day. However, even the Demon Venerable didn't expect that the Falling Star Valley in his impression had changed greatly, and the Falling Star Valley, which was originally covered by heavy mountains, actually appeared openly in front of the four of them, and he didn't use any camouflage techniques, which should never happen as the base camp of the Demon Star Clan. Once found by the enemy, it will suffer a catastrophe.
"What happened here, I remember when I asked him to borrow the heavens a few decades ago, this place was not like this, how come just a few years have passed, but this place has become such a miserable scene!"
It is indeed not an exaggeration to say that it is a tragic situation, because the four of them did not have the slightest anger as far as their eyes could see. There is no spring, summer, autumn and winter in the demon world, because these four seasons can be felt in any corner of the demon world, in the same day, and this is one of the major characteristics of the demon world, the climate change is drastic, and it is very bearable.
It is for this reason that all the vegetation that can survive in the Demon Realm has an extraordinary tenacity, and they can grow in the extremely cold snow and can also be found in the hot craters. Therefore, unless it is an extremely major natural and man-made disaster, the vegetation in the Demon Realm will never disappear in large numbers. And right now, this scene happened. Thinking of this, the Demon Venerable finally understood the purpose of the Demon Emperor sending him. In this way, Demon Emperor Qiongshan has indeed encountered a lot of trouble.
"Demon Venerable, what should we do? For the sake of a former nemesis, we don't need to risk ourselves, right?"
The person who spoke was the Demon Envoy of the Three Devils, with a pair of bat wings, a thin face and few cheeks, looking as if he was seriously ill, and it seemed that he didn't have much to live. However, his exaggerated big eyes were extraordinarily attentive, and when he saw someone else's body, it was as if he had pierced it with an awl, forcing the other party to flash aside.
The Demon Venerable shook his head, and then said in a deep voice: "Heavenly Demon Envoy, you don't understand, this time the Demon Emperor sent me, in addition to letting me come to rescue the Demon Emperor Qiongshan, a more important purpose is to test my loyalty and test whether I, the Demon Venerable, really obey him." ”
The Heavenly Demon Envoy looked at the Demon Venerable, and couldn't help but say, "So, what do you ......mean?"
Demon Venerable said: "We are all descendants of the Demon Clan, since the Demon Emperor is the leader of the Demon Clan, then we naturally have to obey his orders." ”
At this time, the Earth Demon Envoy with two bear arms next to him suddenly interjected: "But Lord Demon Venerable, you have also paid a lot of blood and sweat for the Demon Realm, and the Demon Emperor will come back when he says it, and he doesn't seem to take you in the slightest. As a result of this, my earth demon envoy really can't swallow this evil breath. ”
Looking at the Heavenly Demon Envoy's gradually reddening face, the Demon Venerable immediately laughed and said, "You, you, are still the same as before, with well-developed limbs and a simple mind. You must know that in the minds of the demons, only the Demon Emperor is the true master. What Demon Emperor Demon Venerable is all a disguise, a substitute, and he can't become the king of this world at all. So...... If I want to control the entire Demon Realm, and even the outside world, I must use the power of the Demon Emperor. Only when the time is ripe, can we take their place, and then we can command the demons?"
After knowing the Demon Venerable's plan, the Earth Demon Venerable's face immediately filled with a knowing smile, although his hideous face was not good-looking to smile, and even a little scary.
After looking at the three envoys of the Demon World in front of him, the Demon Venerable said again: "How is it, do you have any other questions?"
The three of them didn't respond, so the Demon Venerable tilted his head to the only demon envoy who didn't speak, and said, "Ah Jian, do you have anything you want to ask?"
The demon envoy held his delicate cheek, and after a long time, he said, "When can I go home?"
Demon Venerable was immediately stunned, and couldn't help asking, "What home, where is it?"
The demon envoy said: "Home is home, the place where I was originally born and raised. I hope that after this battle, I can go home and guard my family. ”
When he heard the word "Shou", Demon Venerable's face suddenly became gloomy, and he was not angry, but sincerely felt a trace of sadness for his young subordinate.
The reason why the Demon Envoy does not say "accompany his family", but "guards his family", is because all his relatives have died twenty years ago. The previous home has been turned into a mound, and there are seven tombs in one building. His parents, his brother and sister, his wife, and his young children were buried in these graves. From the day they died, his world turned gray.
There is nothing more painful in the world than this, he is still alive, and his beloved has all returned to the sky. Hearing what had happened before, Demon Venerable couldn't help but feel heartache for his subordinate, and after relieving himself for a while, he smiled and said, "Okay! Although I am reluctant to let you go, if you must insist, then I will fulfill you." ”
This is the end of the conversation between the four people. At the very end of their line of sight, a long, winding path peeked out of the corners, and then descended into the dense jungle, and the Demon Venerable knew that the journey would be difficult, even fearing for his life. But for the sake of the ambition in his heart, he can only grit his teeth and move forward.
"Qiongshan, don't you want to die, I'm here. ”
