"Water Monsters?!"

Xia Jie snorted, completely unexpecting that he would propose this condition in exchange. But after thinking about it, the current Shi Jie people have no interest in destroying the world, and the water demonic beast has been suppressed by Qing'er, and it is difficult to awaken this ancient demonic beast if there is no exact summoning technique.

For thousands of years, Miao Jiang has only been able to do this, and apart from him, no one else has such great power.

Shi Jieren took a sip of tea and continued: "I know you have a different opinion on the Water Demon Beast, you failed to do so ten years ago, and now you are returning to Nanzhao Kingdom, it should be for it." ”

Xia Jie didn't answer, he stretched out his hand to hold the teacup, and said secretly: "Well, it's interesting." Looks like he's got a plan, so it's no wonder he's so emboldened to make a deal with me. ”

"At the moment, Shi Jieren is not a threat, and within the scope of his ability, this is the only one that can attract me."

In all fairness, he didn't have the idea of getting involved in Shi Jieren's ability, and the use of the Five Spirit Beads was not Shi Jieren's originality, but Miao Jiang's technique, which did not help him much to master the Five Spirit Beads.

And the foundation of Shi Jieren's strength still stems from his own intelligence and talent, just like Li Xiaoyao, this talent is innate.

After thinking for a while, Xia Jie had sympathy for Shi Jie's life, with his talent, if he was properly educated, he was afraid that he would be a great talent, and his achievements might be far above Li Xiaoyao. It's a pity that creation has caused his psychology to become so distorted.

Xia Jie shook his head, frowned and persuaded: "If you want to go to other worlds, in addition to soaring, there is indeed a way to smuggle in, but after the past, you may not live as well as now." ”

Just like Xuanxiao relied on Wangshu Xi and made the entire sect soar, Shushan has a long history, and although most of the methods recorded in the ancient spell books have lost their effectiveness, there are still some ways to go, but once they cross the border, they can't come back.

And the gap in the strength of the two sides is there, this move is tantamount to a sheep into the mouth of a tiger, otherwise, just with the strength of the God Realm and the Demon Realm, just take out a few people, it is enough to crush the strongest in the world.

No matter which realm Shi Jieren chooses, his prestige as the Moon Worship Sect Master can no longer be revived, even if he has unique spiritual power and Miao Jiang witchcraft mana, he is not their opponent at all.

"It doesn't matter." Shi Jieren laughed when he heard this, as soon as he raised his eyes, the kettle flew up automatically, refilled Xia Jie's water, and replied calmly: "I have already put life and death aside from honor and disgrace, as long as I can see what I ask for but can't get it, it's enough!" ”

Xia Jie nodded silently, he also knew that this kind of obsession could not be dispelled in one or two sentences, Shi Jieren's current mentality was like the Taoist 'Chaowen Dao, and death at night was enough. ’

"You're very open-minded. If so, then I have no reason to refuse this deal. ”

Shi Jieren's face was happy, he raised his glass to replace the wine with tea, and saluted: "Then, I wish each of us to achieve what we want." ”

……

"Qing'er...... No! No! Qing'er, you, are you a demon?! ”

Zhao Ye woke up from the dragon ** sweating profusely, his face still had the horror of the dream, and the whole person was like a person who had been sick for a long time, and his face was very pale.

In the dream, he recalled a scene ten years ago, when his queen turned into a half-human, half-snake monster!

Although Zhao Ye knew that Qing'er was a descendant of Nuwa, but in the thousands of years since the mortal changes, no one had ever seen Nuwa's true body, how could he know the identity of this Nuwa's descendants, which actually meant that they were not ordinary human beings?

Anyone who sees this scene is afraid that they will have the same emotions as him.

"Whew, Whew......"

Zhao Ye looked at the flickering candlelight around him, and then looked sideways at the empty ** couch, and for a while, the fear was gone, but a strange sense of emptiness rose.

He stretched out his hand and pressed it on the golden pillow on the left side, and his eyes unconsciously glowed with crystal water, "After so many years, I thought I had forgotten her, but I didn't expect that when I woke up every night, I would remember them one by one." ”

"Sacred Lake...... Qing'er, I haven't come to see you for a long time......"

In the empty dormitory, Zhao Ye's low moan was inaudible, but until the early morning, when the court meeting began, he had already returned to his former majestic appearance, wearing a hunting gold suit, and changing his solemn robes, which made the black and white Miao officials in the palace all puzzled.

After accepting the salute of the hundred officials as usual, Zhao Ye looked sideways at the empty golden seat on the right, and frowned, "Why didn't the sect leader come?" ”

"Back to the emperor, the sect leader worked hard day and night for the people, and he was ill and could not participate in the court meeting." A Hei Miao military attache replied that he actually didn't know why Shi Jieren didn't come, but this was mostly the reason why ordinary officials couldn't go to court, so he instinctively justified it.

Zhao Yetou didn't take this matter to heart, he directly ordered: "Okay, the court meeting will start directly, and we will discuss this matter later." ”

Although he was like an arrow and wanted to directly avoid the court and go straight to the holy lake, his duties as the lord of the country made him unable to make such a willful move.

At this moment, the south of the Zhao Kingdom is to the west.

Xia Jie and Shi Jie stand on the edge of a vast green lake, the most sacred place in the whole of Nanzhao, which has been named the holy lake since ancient times.

The people didn't know why it got its name, but it was only after the water monster rushed out of the bottom of the lake and the witch queen turned into a stone statue to suppress the lake, that they realized that a harmful basilisk had been imprisoned in the sacred lake.

Qing'er's stone statue stands on the side of the holy lake, the stone statue has a clear face, holding the heavenly snake staff horizontally with both hands, and the waist is wrapped in a snake shape, like a loyal guard, standing facing the southern Zhao country.

"You, can you easily destroy it?"

Xia Jie asked in a deep voice, in his eyes, this stone statue that is about the same height as the Leshan Giant Buddha contains the power of Nuwa far above himself, and it is too incredible that Shi Jie can easily destroy it.

"It's not difficult to destroy it, the power of Nuwa's descendants is not only their own, but also the divine power generated by the people of Nanzhao Kingdom who believe in Nuwa. Since the establishment of the Lunatic Cult, the people of the whole country no longer believe in her, but the doctrine of equality and mutual love for all, and her most fundamental power has long been dismantled, and it is only an empty appearance. ”

Shi Jieren smiled on the armrest, he changed into a pure white robe, the shoulders and placket of the robe have buttons, and some folds protrude between the pulls, dividing several layers to look more three-dimensional and more stylish.

"Believe in ...... Faith? Xia Jie looked surprised, "No wonder, the god Nuwa is no longer in this world, the power of her descendants does not pose a threat to you, and even the wisp of will she left behind cannot be replenished, so you easily cursed and trapped the Nuwa Temple?" ”

"That's true." Shi Jie smiled, hesitated again, and said: "Actually, I have also figured it out in recent years, everything I did before was too extreme, so I never wanted to disturb her, just like the queen did back then, quietly guarding Nanzhao Kingdom." ”

In the final analysis, Shi Jieren is still a citizen of Nanzhao Kingdom after all, just as he will kneel to the Witch King and Ling'er, in some ways, he still adheres to the way of the monarch and minister, but when it comes to what he pursues, he will show a strange kind of persistence.

"But now, it's time for me to let go."

Shi Jie's personality was peaceful, and he couldn't see that he was reluctant to give up this lofty power at all, but it was a kind of ease to unload the burden, "I can break the queen's seal now and summon the water monster." But I am also subject to the spell, and I cannot harm it or order it. ”

"The Water Demon Beast is an ancient Demon Beast, although it has been suppressed by the Nuwa clan for a long time, resulting in no one in ten, but its strength is not to be reckoned with."

"It lives when it encounters water, it is almost immortal and indestructible, except for Nuwa's power to seal it, all kinds of forces in the world are difficult to cause harm to it, have you really decided?"

Listening to Shi Jieren's very solemn reminder, Xia Jie couldn't help but be upset, his eyes scanned back and forth between the stone statue of Qing'er and the pool of green lakes.

After frowning and pondering for a moment, he slowly shook his head and said, "Wait for now, and then in a few months." ”

"As you wish, my friend." Shi Jieren smiled his head, he bowed slightly and said: "I have finished dealing with the affairs of the church, and it will take some time to leave this world, and I will wait for you in the church altar after that, if you decide to change the requirements, please let me know." ”

Xia Jie silently rubbed the two five spirit beads between his hands, and replied with a firm face: "Okay, I have decided that I will come to you." ”

Looking at this stone statue of Qing'er, he couldn't help but think of the scene where Ling'er controlled the water demon beast's Neidan with the power of Nuwa and died with it.

Although the battle was won on the surface, the truth was a fiasco. After the battle, Ling'er was severely injured and died after walking less than a mile out of the water, while the water monster sank to the bottom of the lake, but it did not show that it was dead at all, maybe it was just the same wounded and fell into a deep sleep.

Indeed, from ancient times to the present, the water monsters have been sealed, if they were killed by Ling'er like this, wouldn't the descendants of Nuwa who sacrificed before be too useless?

And Xia Jie didn't dare to claim that the power of the Five Elements was stronger than Nuwa's, in other words, he didn't dare to guarantee that he could defeat the Water Demon Beast.

This will create an unavoidable problem, if you wake it up now, you can't solve this scourge by yourself, with Ling'er's vocation, she may be able to fight the water monster again, and the outcome is naturally obvious.

And this situation is very likely to happen, so Xia Jie didn't dare to take risks.

However, he didn't give up because he had a great chance to experiment!

Go back to ten years ago, and really fight with the water monster once, in order to find out if you can defeat it, if not, then gather the five spirit beads, use the power of your five elements plus the power of wind and thunder, to test your own conjecture, get stronger power from it, and finally decide whether to wake up the water monster.
