Chapter 58
It was night, and the sky of the Demon Realm was like a deep blue transparent gem, clear and beautiful. A full golden moon hung over the horizon, quietly emitting a pure white glow. From time to time, a breeze on the ground caressed the treetops, making a subtle "rustling" sound.
Jun Nuochen sat in the courtyard, looking at the bright moon, the moonlight gently sprinkled on his face, exposing his handsome face to the night sky at a glance.
Suddenly, his figure moved, he lowered his head, and immediately after, a faint blue light appeared in front of him. After the light dissipated, a young man stood in place, judging from the person's clothes, it should be the gatekeeper of the Demon Realm.
Jun Nuochen looked at the person in front of him and smiled gently: "I can't even recognize you like this." ”
The person on the other side smiled lightly, then gently brushed his face with his right hand, and in an instant the person lost his original clothes and appearance, and turned into a slender and heroic young man.
"Mo Xuan, you've worked hard all these years." Jun Nuochen patted the other party's shoulder gently, "It's been a while since I've been back, but I haven't had a chance to meet you. "Indeed, ten years have passed since then.
The young man named Mo Xuan shook his head and said, "I am willing to do things for my eldest brother, how can it be hard?" When he said this, his face was full of sincerity and respect for Jun Nuochen. He will not forget that it was Ju Nuochen who saved him more than ten years ago, and he is willing to treat him as a brother.
Jun Nuochen looked at him, pointed to the vacant seat beside him, and motioned for him to sit down: "You must already know about the affairs of the Demon Realm, so I don't need to say anything more." You've been in the Demon Realm for a long time, but someone treats you differently? ”
Mo Xuan smiled and said, "I'm just a small gatekeeper here, who will notice me?" ”
Jun Nuochen didn't ask anything more, just looked at him with approving eyes. Indeed, if you want to hide in one place for a long time, the identity does not have to be conspicuous. The more you are in a situation where no one cares, the more you earn the most space for investigating the situation here.
Mo Xuan seemed to think of something, and said: "I heard from a few soldiers today that the Demon Queen died suddenly, and this matter seems to be related to the Demon Saint, for this reason, the Demon King and the Demon Saint are at war...... When the two fought, the Demon Saint was in danger, but was rescued by a burst of golden light......"
"What do you want to ask?" Jun Nuochen curled his lips, revealing a hint of gentleness.
He ...... You rescued you, didn't you? Mo Xuan asked, although there was doubt in his words, but he was already a little sure in his heart.
Jun Nuochen was noncommittal, but with Mo Xuan's years of understanding of him, he already understood the answer to the question.
Mo Xuan's expression fluctuated a little for a while, and he frowned: "No, An Lengyao's move is too dangerous." He has been friends with the Demon King Yue Ming for many years, and even if the two are incompatible at the moment, they are not absolutely sure that they can be used by us. Big brother, you have to think carefully. ”
"What else to consider? The person I have a fancy for will never be wrong. Jun Nuochen said lightly, "I came back this time because of him." Xia Moxuan, you've been with me for more than ten years, don't you still believe in my eyes on people? ”
"I'm ......," Xia Moxuan was speechless for a moment, "It's not like that." I just think that An Lengyao and Yue Ming have friendship, so it is not suitable for us to use, the so-called friendship is the most taboo thing in the battle. ”
Jun Nuochen smiled leisurely, and he lightly opened his lips: "Mo Xuan, don't you know that those deep friendships will turn into strong hatred under certain circumstances?" Don't you think the latter can be a more powerful weapon than a person who has no emotions and faces everything calmly and a person who harbors hatred? If I am not sure of him, why should I save him? If he doesn't have any use value, I can make him disappear from this world in the next second. When he said this, his eyebrows were still as warm as ever, as if he had been born a young man with a gentle temperament. But between talking and laughing, the inner coldness revealed is already chilling.
"I understand what big brother means, forgive me for being so careful." Xia Moxuan nodded, he should have thought that Jun Nuochen was a person who did things well, how could such a person allow himself to leave hidden dangers.
Jun Nuochen gently tapped the table with his slender fingers and looked at the full moon in the sky: "Many years ago, I failed once, overestimating An Tiankuo's ability and underestimating Yue Xuan's ability. This time......" He didn't say any more, and the ruthlessness in his tone made everyone understand everything. He remembered that many years ago, he wanted to use An Tiankuo's hand to eradicate Yue Xuan and fight for the throne, so he pretended to intersect with An Tiankuo and pulled the other party into the trap little by little, seeing that everything was about to succeed, but he didn't want Lin Yunye, who was under Yue Xuan, to be lurking beside An Tiankuo all the time, and turning all his hard work into ashes at a critical moment.
An Tiankuo was executed soon after, after his death, Yue Xuan ordered a thorough investigation of clues related to An Tiankuo's rebellion, although Jun Nuochen knew that he had always been in good disguise, coupled with a figure like Ye Qian by his side, naturally no one would suspect him. But he was still afraid in his heart, An Tiankuo's failure was already outside his plan, if everything went well, Yue Xuan would have been pulled off the throne long ago, so at this juncture, he didn't dare to be careless, so he wandered outside for ten years on the grounds of distraction, wanting to wait for a good time to return.
And this moment has finally come.
Xia Moxuan took out a white envelope from his arms and handed it to Jun Nuochen: "I have verified this deployment of the Demon Realm's forces many times, and there will be no omissions. ”
"Of course I believe you." Jun Nuochen pursed his lips and put the envelope in the pocket of his clothes, "Have you contacted all of our people?" ”
"Hmm. Everything is ready and just waiting for your orders. Xia Moxuan replied.
Jun Nuochen looked at him and shook his head slightly: "It was right to prepare earlier. However, I am not in a hurry to move this game, and for now, I want to wait a few more days, and it is not too late to start again. ”
"Big brother means ......" Xia Moxuan understood something.
"Yue Ming is a clever man, and with the slightest hint I intend to leave behind, it won't be long before he will understand everything and come to me to question me. That's when the show begins. Jun Nuochen said, unconsciously revealing a confident look.
"Na'an Leng Yao ......"
"He doesn't have to worry, now, he will do whatever I want him to do, everything is under my control." Jun Nuochen said, thinking of something again, "These chips in my hand can probably be pressed for about five days, and in the next few days, I want your identity in the demon world to disappear completely." ”
"Yes." Xia Moxuan replied respectfully. He is just a doorman in the Demon Realm, and such a person exists in a humble corner, and no one notices him. Even if you die, no one cares. At this time, a simple identity is the best way to get out.
Jun Nuochen said no more, a shallow smile on his lips, and the moonlight enveloped his whole body in a thin veil. He still looks handsome and gentle, but from this moment on, he is no longer the gentle man he usually is......
This was the fourth day of Yin Qianluo's death, and Yue Ming buried her next to Yue Xuan's grave. There was a drizzle in the sky, and the sky of the Demon Realm was wrapped in a dull gray, and Yue Ming stood quietly in front of the grave, and from time to time a light breeze in the air caressed it, reflecting the rain on his cheeks. Countless raindrops slipped down his fair face, like tears that could never be wiped away.
Ye Qian stood not far away, and he gently waved his hand to signal the soldiers on the side to retreat. He looked at Yue Ming, and sighed softly in his heart, creating and making people.
After a long time, Yue Ming stepped forward and stroked the tombstone of Yin Qianluo with his right hand, and only a few words were engraved on it: The one who sleeps here is famous on the water.
There are so many different circumstances in life, some people are born in a high position, some people never stop working hard, and some people are drunk and dream all day long...... But one day, when you really say goodbye to this world, you will find that the so-called money, fame and fortune are all empty in the end. All merits and demerits are just bits and pieces left in this world, and these will eventually dim with the passage of time, fame and fortune are like words written in water, they are all nothing.
But the more you meditate, even so, there will always be traces of the deceased in the hearts of the living. Thinking that he was a king at a young age, thanks to his mother's careful cultivation along the way, he was able to get to where he is today. However, he recalled that after so many years, he and her had spent most of their time arguing. Because he didn't want to let down his friends, he spoke coldly to her because of this, but in the end, he forgot that he didn't live up to the world, but he failed his mother.
"Mom, I'm sorry." Yue Ming whispered, tears running down his cheeks to the wall in front of him. For more than ten years, his apologies to his mother have finally fallen into these few simple words. If he had understood the truth that Yin Qianluo had been hiding so hard to hide, maybe it wouldn't have been like this.
Family affection is always the softest place in a person's heart. Yue Ming stared at the grave of Yin Qianluo, and childhood memories suddenly flooded into his mind. He still remembers his childhood mischievous and disobedient to discipline. Every time Yin Qianluo wanted to blame him for making a mistake, he was always discouraged by a few naughty words from him, and looked at him with a helpless smile instead.
At that time, he always complained about his mother's harshness, but forgot to explore what was contained under that severity.
It's love.
Yue Ming suddenly sank his knees and knelt on the ground. He solemnly kowtowed three times to the grave of Yin Qianluo. In his life, he owes his mother too much, and he misunderstands and hurts her too much. He and she have never left anything for each other between life and death. But there is no need for words, and Yue Ming already knows everything.
"Mom, I swear to you today that I will definitely avenge you." Yue Ming solemnly promised, and then thought of something, "Of course, I will not fail you." The Demon Realm is the greatest responsibility in my life, and I will go to the end and never give up. ”
Then, he slowly got up, his hands clenched into fists, hanging at his sides, his eyes shining with a determined gaze that he had never seen before. At this moment, he really grew a lot. Indeed, when the person who can shelter you from the wind and rain is gone, growth is a must.
When Yue Ming raised his head again, he was no longer the young man who was sad about the loss of his mother just now, but a majestic young king.
"Elder Ye, do you have any clues about what I asked you to do?" Yue Shen asked in a deep voice.
