On the contrary, Tang Xi Haoyue's face was simply a dramatic change, a burst of blue and a burst of white, this old guy Yu Su Ming was simply stubborn, if it weren't for the fact that the Yu clan had the support of many small families, she would have wanted to take them all a long time ago.

Chu Li looked at Tangxi Haoyue and said, "I remember that the city lord of Phoenix City has always been taken over by the phoenix lord selected by the Phoenix Stone, I don't know how Miss Tangxi's position as the city lord came about?" ”

Tangxi Haoyue was choked by Chu Li's words, her face turned red, since she was born in the past thirty years, she had never been humiliated like this, she wanted to burn Chu Li alive.

"The Phoenix Stone has been lost for a thousand years, and I, the city lord, am just elected by everyone, and when the real city lord returns, I will step down and return the position." Tangxi Haoyue said with a smile.

"Miss Tangxi is really virtuous, so I will thank the queen." Chu Li said with a smile.

Murong Yue looked at the two of them coming and going, as well as Chu Li's smile, and his heart was cold, should he think that just a phoenix stone, and himself, a phoenix lord who doesn't know whether it is true or not, can get Phoenix City.

Tangxi Haoyue said with a smile: "Emperor Chen said that he was joking, but the appointment of this city lord is a big event, and it still needs to be prepared for a few days." ”

"It's natural, and it's okay for me to stay a few more days." Chu Li responded cheerfully.

"There is one more thing that Emperor Chen must not know, this city lord who was selected by the Phoenix Stone needs to perform the Nirvana ceremony on the Phoenix Terrace on the day of succession." Tangxi Haoyue said, staring at Murong Yue, and the corners of her lips hooked up with a just right smile.

Chu Li frowned puzzled, and asked with doubts, "Nirvana ritual?" Miss Tangxi, can you elaborate on that? ”

Murong Yue looked at Tang Xi Haoyue's gaze, and a trace of coolness rose behind her staring, what kind of fame did she want.

Tangxi Haoyue smiled, her tone was gentle, and she began to say word by word, "This nirvana ceremony is held on the Phoenix platform in the middle of Phoenix City, it is difficult to say, it is not difficult to say, it is not difficult to say, this ceremony is mainly to test whether the city lord is someone impersonating, after all, this lust for profit is consumed, and there are many people who want to fake, did Emperor Chen say yes?" ”

"It's natural, I just don't know how this ritual needs to be done?" Of course, Chu Li could hear that this was sarcastic about him, but he smiled indifferently and didn't take it seriously at all.

"Phoenix Nirvana rebirth, Nirvana ceremony, will be spread around the Phoenix platform with firewood, and then poured with fire oil, and the phoenix lord needs to be tied to the stone platform, until the fire is extinguished before coming out, if this person is pretending, this fire will definitely kill her, of course, if it is really the phoenix master, there will be no damage at all."

After Tangxi Haoyue finished speaking, she looked at Murong Yue's expression, wanting to see her scared look, but she seemed to be disappointed, and the other party couldn't see anything except calm and indifference.

In fact, Tangxi Haoyue was wrong, Murong Yue was not afraid, she didn't want to be burned alive, but she wanted such an unreliable thing, Chu Li would definitely not agree, so she didn't need to worry.

Sure enough, Chu Li showed a smile on his face, and then said with a smile: "Miss Tangxi, I don't think this joke is funny at all. ”

"Emperor Chen doesn't believe me?" Tangxi Haoyue raised her eyebrows and asked.

Chu Li's slender fingertips tapped rhythmically on the tabletop, and a pair of clear eyes stared at Tangxi Haoyue and said, "It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that the story made up by Miss Tangxi is really a bit excessive." ”

"Hehe..."Tangxi Haoyue heard Chu Li's words and smiled lowly.

Then he raised his head and said: "Emperor Chen, whether you believe this matter or not, if your queen does not carry out the Nirvana ceremony, then all the people of Phoenix City will definitely not accept her, so please ask the emperor to take her back." ”

When Chu Li heard Tangxi Haoyue's words, he couldn't help but have a touch of displeasure on his face, is this Tangxi Haoyue a little too arrogant.

Nan Tianzhu didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, and said: "Phoenix City does have such an ancient precept, if you can't accept the Nirvana ceremony, then I won't recognize this city lord." ”

"Brother Nan is right, and my Gu family doesn't admit it." Gu Changfeng nodded and said.

Yu Su Ming glanced at everyone present, and finally stood up tremblingly, looked at Murong Yue and bowed and said, "City Lord, this Nirvana Ritual is indeed an ancient precept in my Phoenix City. ”

Murong Yue looked at Yu Suming's movements, as well as what he had just said, her heart sank, could it be that this thing turned out to be true, thinking of this, she glanced at Chu Li.

Sure enough, Chu Li lowered his head and began to ponder, if what they said was true, would it really be impossible to send Murong Yue to the Phoenix Stage, but what if it failed.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks this matter is feasible, the queen is the phoenix lord selected by the Phoenix Stone, and there will definitely be no problems." Zen Yu said in a hoarse voice.

Chu Li suddenly looked up at Chan Yu who was speaking, he knew Zen Yu's ability, watching the stars at night, and predicting good fortune had never made a mistake, could it....

Murong Yue looked at Chu Li's gaze at her, and her back was cold, sure enough, Chu Li was planning to sacrifice her in exchange for that unattainable hope.

Originally, she thought that even if Chu Li liked power and used her, but in the end, he still had some feelings for her, and it seemed that she was still too naïve after all.

How could Chu Li like her, the reason why he cared about himself was because she still had use value, and once he could sacrifice himself in exchange for power, he would definitely not hesitate.

That night, Murong Yue lay on the bed, tossing and turning, and when Chu Li's last gaze fell, she only felt that her breath was stagnant, as if there were countless blunt knives slamming her heart.

As early as when she saw her father die, Murong Yue knew that she could no longer be with Chu Li in this life, he was just her enemy, but where was this heart controlled, she knew that she still liked Chu Li.

But now she has to admit that she is ignorant, how can she believe Chu Li's words, how can she believe that he really loves herself.

She never thought that her ending here would really be burned alive, and it was the person she loved the most who personally sent her to the Phoenix Stage.

"Yue'er~"

In the quiet night, the originally small voice was exceptionally clear, Murong Yue sat up, looked around, and said softly: "Brother Shen, is it you?" ”

"It's me." Shen Congnan jumped down from the girder lightly in a night suit without making a sound.

"Brother Shen, why did you come suddenly, didn't you say that tomorrow would be good?" Murong Yue lowered her voice and asked.

Shen Congnan shook his head and said, "Tomorrow's action is really too risky. ”

"But tomorrow is the best time to escape." Murong Yue opened her mouth and said.

"Yue'er, I don't dare to take any risk to you." Shen Congnan's cold eyes were never gentle, if something happened to Murong Yue, he really didn't know if he could hold on.
