399 Mu Qingtian's choice
Phantom Rain left, and returned to Tianque City with this completely unacceptable answer.
As for whether Ming Xuan was Ling Chendao or not, it seemed that it was no longer the most important thing to him.
At this time, he was sitting alone on the edge of Mu Qingtian's bed, his face full of struggle.
That's right, the thing in the picture at that time was the Demon Soul Bead.
And if the other figure is guessed correctly, it should be the true demon youth.
In other words, when Mu Qingtian was still young, he had already been seeded by that young man.
Plus now the true demons are about to invade the human race.
All this kept passing through his mind, and Phantom Rain naturally understood it.
It's no wonder that Mu Qingtian would stop him from delving into this matter in the first place, and even Mu Qingtian himself seems to have made a choice.
If nothing else, Ling Chendao should have known about this matter a long time ago.
He deliberately told himself that he could get the antidote to the poison in Mu Qingtian's body by going to the demon clan, and he was afraid that he had already known that the young man would give him the Demon Soul Bead.
At first, Phantom Rain thought that the young man was trying to control him, but it seemed that he was wrong about all this.
Maybe that young man really wanted to control him, but more than that, he hoped that he would use the Demon Soul Bead to save Mu Qingtian.
Although Phantom Rain didn't know what would become of humans devouring the Demon Soul Bead, or why Mu Qingtian chose to swallow the Demon Soul Bead in the first place.
But if it is devoured by Mu Qingtian again, I am afraid that Mu Qingtian will completely become a puppet of the true demon.
In that case, it would be more than just a disaster for the entire human race.
"Alas!". Phantom Rain let out a long sigh, completely confused.
Maybe even if he didn't come to the rescue, Mu Qingtian shouldn't have died.
At least not until the true demons arrive.
It wasn't that he hadn't thought of sucking the Demon Soul Bead out of Mu Qingtian's body, but the Demon Soul Bead had already merged with Mu Qingtian's body, so it was naturally impossible to do this.
However, at this moment, Mu Qingtian on the bed woke up faintly.
The moment he opened his eyes, he saw some distracted phantom rain.
Perhaps sensing his gaze, Phantom Rain also came back to his senses and looked at him.
Looking at each other, Phantom Rain's eyes were full of complexity.
And Mu Qingtian originally wanted to say something, but when he noticed Phantom Rain's eyes, he seemed to understand something.
The two looked at each other like this for a long time, and finally Mu Qingtian showed a little self-deprecation, and said with great difficulty: "You already know, right?"
Hearing this, Phantom Rain's body trembled slightly, and then he nodded.
After getting his answer, Mu Qingtian's face seemed to be a little soothed, and then said, "Then can you promise me two things."
Phantom Rain was stunned for a moment, and then continued to nod.
Seeing that Phantom Rain agreed, Mu Qingtian also showed a smile on his face.
With his understanding of Phantom Rain, since Phantom Rain agreed, he would inevitably do it, so he didn't rush to say what it was, but with a thick reminiscence in his eyes, he slowly told a story.
Mu Qingtian was the fourth son of the previous Emperor of the Shenyu Empire.
When he was a child, he didn't actually have a phantom root, and he couldn't even cultivate.
So he spent most of his time studying the text.
At that time, he didn't actually have the idea of competing for the throne in his heart.
But then something happened that changed him completely.
He still remembered that it was also because his father was terminally ill and the empire was in turmoil.
In order to compete for the throne, his three elder brothers not only slaughtered on a large scale, but even his own brother refused to let go.
In the end, he escaped by chance, but his mother was poisoned.
Since then, he's changed.
He vows to avenge his mother and at the same time get back what he is rightful to be.
However, he didn't have an illusion root, so naturally he couldn't cultivate.
So he took a different path and began to try his hand at becoming a businessman.
As the saying goes, money makes the devil grind.
He believed that as long as he had a certain amount of wealth, he would naturally be able to invite countless masters to work for him.
At that time, he naturally had the strength to take back what he should have.
Hearing this, Phantom Rain also sighed in a low voice.
Obviously, Mu Qingtian at that time was still too naïve, if he didn't have strong enough strength, even if he had more wealth, he wouldn't be making a wedding dress for others.
Sure enough, things were similar to what Phantom Rain expected.
Although Mu Qingtian didn't know how to do business at first, as time went by, he slowly found some doorways.
It took more than ten years for him to finally accumulate some wealth.
At that time, he also inquired that the ultimate winner of his three elder brothers was his eldest brother.
In other words, at that time, the emperor of the Shenyu Empire was his eldest brother.
As for the ending of the other two brothers, there is no need to say much.
So he began to secretly recruit some masters of the sect.
At first, everything went well, and he hired a lot of masters in his account.
His plan is naturally to secretly get rid of his eldest brother, so that when he comes out, he can naturally take over this huge empire.
However, before he could make a move, the so-called masters he recruited took the lead in countering the water.
If it weren't for the fact that he still had a few loyal subordinates at that time, I am afraid that he would have been dead by that time.
In the end, with the escort of those people, he originally managed to escape.
But it didn't take long for him to be overtaken.
After all, he was just an ordinary person, and the speed of any great illusionist could quickly catch up with him.
But just as he was about to be killed, a man suddenly appeared in front of him.
Originally, the young man didn't want to pay attention to it, but Mu Qingtian hurriedly called for help as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, and also told his identity.
At this moment, the young man suddenly became a little interested, and with just a wave of his hand, all those who were chasing him died.
At that time, Mu Qingtian was stunned, such a method was completely beyond his imagination.
So he begged the young man to help him regain the throne.
I didn't expect the young man to readily agree.
What happened next was even more bizarre.
The young man led him straight into the palace and brought his eldest brother to him.
Mu Qingtian, who was blinded by hatred, killed his eldest brother with his own hands without thinking about it.
Since then, he has successfully ascended to the throne.
However, when the young man left, he gave him a demon soul bead and told him to swallow it, and then left without saying anything.
It was precisely because of the Demon Soul Bead that he was able to possess the strength of the Phantom Emperor.
For so many years, he regarded the young man as a benefactor.
It wasn't until he found that there was something wrong with his body that suddenly a stranger appeared in front of him and gave him a demon soul bead again.
As he spoke, Mu Qingtian's hand slowly stretched out, and in the palm of his hand, a round crystal was quietly placed there.
Looking at this scene, Phantom Rain couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.
Maybe Mu Qingtian didn't know the true effect of the Demon Soul Bead, but he still guessed something, or Ling Chendao told him something.
So this time, he didn't swallow the Demon Soul Bead again, but chose to die.
After listening to Mu Qingtian, Phantom Rain was silent for a long time.
