Chapter 47: The Transformation of the Lion King
The conversation between Ouyang Yong and Lion Wang Cheng sounded in Xia Qiu's ears, which was a little vague at first, but slowly became clear.
"Why are you so sure about that young man? It seemed to me that he was a far cry from his father and his grandfather. Lion Wang Cheng thought about it again and again and asked Ouyang Yong.
"Because he is a descendant of the Demon King Fox, he has the innate talent and potential of the Demon King Fox, and the power of the Silver Fox Divine Monarch in his body has also awakened, all he needs is the experience of time." Ouyang Yong replied firmly.
"In my opinion, he is just a hairy boy, and as far as I can see, he is not even good at communicating with people, how can he become a king and lead the entire demon world?" Lion Wang Cheng continued to ask, not reluctantly.
"Why did his personality become like this? Aloof and wary, aren't we all responsible for the loss of both parents when he was a child? Ouyang Yong deliberately aggravated the word us, covering himself, "When his father, Xianwang Xueye, died, we, as elders, could not calm the contradictions between the princes and nobles in the royal city, nor could we unify their opinions, Xiao Leng, as the descendant of the demon king fox, could not even live peacefully in the palace that the demon world king city should belong to him, and could only be raised in the world by red leaves, what he carried was far from what we gave him, how could the children who grew up in such a situation be happy?!" ”
"Alas, now is not the time to investigate who is right and who is wrong, now the disaster facing the demon world is related to the life and death of each of us, even if the crisis of the Heavenly Power Hall is calmed, we still have to face the war with Qingyun, don't you think it has reached the point of despair?" Lion King Cheng sighed and said, in his opinion, the demon world has been doomed, "I am willing to use this last bit of my strength, but it is also a drop in the bucket, I will do my best to slow down the fall of the demon world It is my responsibility as an elder of the demon world, but what should come will always come, no matter what we do." ”
"In fact, I have also fallen into despair several times, at the moment of the death of Lord Li, I also thought that this demon world may no longer have any future, but then the snow night rose, and the demon world also prospered again, although it was destroyed by Qingyun again, everything had to start all over again. But I see hope in Xiao Leng again, I feel his changes, since he met that human girl, his heart is gradually being opened, and he has become more mature and takes the overall situation into account, I feel that the era of Xiao Leng, Xia Qiu and Qianqi has come! No one can make up their minds until it's over, so I decided to gamble the rest of my life and trust them once, and since I can do it, can't you choose to believe it again? Ouyang Yong said the truest feelings in his heart in one breath.
Belonging to the era of Xiao Leng, Xia Qiu and Qianqi, these words echoed in the mind of Lion Wang Cheng. Once upon a time, he also had his own time, he was born in a princely family, but he was dissatisfied with living under the halo of his father, and joined the army of the first king from a young age, determined to become a brave and good fighter, not afraid of life and death. At that time, it was also denied and doubted by countless people, believing that the glory he received was only because of his noble birth, and he himself was once disheartened, but Xian Wangli never gave up on him, and if it were not for his encouragement and affirmation, he would not have been able to fulfill his wish. This is also the reason why he respects and loves the former king, and he even sacrifices himself to protect him. At this time, Xiao Leng was the same age as himself back then, but he bore more denial and doubt than he was at that time.
He seemed to be able to understand Ouyang Yong's mood, Ouyang Xiaoleng and Xian Wang Li had the same blood, and this moment was an important moment for them to believe in and support his descendants, so he said: "Okay, I am willing to believe this time!" ”
Xia Qiu felt her heart fluctuate with the conversation between Ouyang Yong and Lion King Cheng, she wanted to tell Ouyang Xiaoleng at the first moment that he had won the affirmation of Lion King Cheng, but she couldn't do anything, and her self in a state of soul separation should be just a shadow for people in this world.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that her limbs became more and more weak, and even almost paralyzed, and she didn't know who was supporting her from behind. It was the first time for her to experience the feeling of being touched in the state of soul detachment, and she hurriedly turned around in a panic to see that it was the Yuhe Immortal standing behind her. She didn't know why they had met each other again in the Soul Separation, but in fact he had come after her, and he was by no means in vain as the best Soul Separation Ability.
After she fell asleep on Immortal Island, she quickly entered a state of soul detachment, which was closely related to her excessive worry about the current situation of the royal city and Ouyang Xiaoleng. The Feather Crane Immortal who was also in the soul separation followed her all the way to the Tianquan Hall of the Chenji Palace in the Wangcheng City, her soul separation ability was obviously not strong enough, in the soul separation, the soul would be disturbed by external emotions and cause large fluctuations, becoming strong and weak, this was an extremely dangerous signal, he was fortunate that he could give her proper guidance by her side, otherwise her soul would definitely be hurt, he took her hand and led her soul to quickly return to her own body on the island of eternal life along the same path.
When Ouyang Xiaoleng and they rode the demon horse into the royal city of Yongchuan, they were greeted by a lifeless atmosphere, except for a few scattered princes and nobles of the demon carriage back and forth with the inside and outside of the Chenji Palace, there was not a single pedestrian on the street, in the past, this time was the lively moment of the shopping street, but at this moment the doors and windows were closed, it seemed that the tense atmosphere in the royal city was stronger than when they left, they dismounted in front of the Chenji Palace, and after calling the demon horse away, they met the thorns that greeted them in front of the palace.
"How's the situation in the royal city?" Ouyang Hongye and the others asked as they walked towards the main hall with the thorns.
"The situation is similar to what you saw, people everywhere were panicking, many people tried to flock to the world, Lord Yong ordered some of his subordinates and the cavalry regiment from Dongyao to guard the corridor of the two lives, they tried to be impassable, some hid, and the rest were crowded in the Chenji Palace." Thorn replied.
"So...... That's why so many people are allowed to stay here? ”
Ouyang Hongye saw that the palace was full of princes and nobles gathered, and those people showed all kinds of expressions when they saw them coming back, and then tried to surround them and trap them as if they had agreed, but fortunately they were protected by thorns, because of the sharp thorns and flames that burst out of the thorns, the other people were discouraged, and they only had expressions of disgust, and they wanted to stop and retreat to the side.
"Lord Yong and Elder Cheng have been suppressing the divine power leaking out from the Four Divine Pillars on the Heavenly Power Palace, and since you left the city to find the Heavenly Rune, the guards of the Chenji Palace have been slackened! This is only a small part, the front hall has been crowded with them, they even brought some necessities, food and living are outside the Tianshu Palace, the stone demon Yanming is there to appease them, let's detour to the main hall from the side of the road. As he spoke, the thorn led them to the right.
Before entering the Heavenly Power Palace, Ouyang Hongye felt that the demonic power of Lord Yong and Lion King Cheng was much weaker than when they left, so he said to himself: "I finally caught up!" This day talisman came at a good time! ”
"Well, it's very timely, according to the current situation, Lord Yong and Elder Cheng shouldn't be able to hold out for long, just shaking one Divine Pillar is already quite difficult for them, although after the Earth Talisman was sent, the situation has eased a bit, but the situation of the other two Divine Pillars has been getting worse in the past few days." Thorn replied with an anxious look on his face, when he reported to Lord Yong every day in the past few days about the situation that Wang Cheng and Ouyang Hongye had fed back, watching him get old made him worry.
Ouyang Xiaoleng quickened his pace when he heard this, and after entering the Tianquan Palace, he saw two old men sitting with their chests on their chests, although it had only been a few days since they left, the posture of the two elders had obviously aged a lot, and the outer layer of the cyclone generated by the demonic power had also become quite fragile.
Seeing Ouyang Xiaoleng and the others coming in, Ouyang Yong let out a long sigh of relief and sighed: "If you don't come back, our two old bones will soon be wiped out." ”
Fenghuo rushed to Lion Wang Cheng in three steps and two steps, and knelt down beside him at once, "We're back, my lord, and the Heavenly Fu has also been brought back." ”
"Xiao Leng, I'm going to use the power of the Silver Fox Divine Monarch in your body again." Ouyang Yong nodded at Ouyang Xiaoleng and said.
After hearing this, Ouyang Hongye took out the pocket containing the Heavenly Rune from his arms and handed it to Ouyang Xiaoleng, he took it and activated the power of the Silver Soul Divine Monarch in his body again, revealing the body of the Demon King Fox.
Ouyang Yong and Lion King Cheng exchanged glances, and at the same time untied the demonic power chains that bound the two divine pillars of Vermilion Bird and Xuanwu, while Xiao Leng removed the ribbon on the Heavenly Talisman at the same time. As the Celestial Rune was unfolded, it turned into an umbrella in the golden light, spun and propped into the air, and the umbrella grew larger and larger, and finally in an instant covered the two pillars of Vermilion Bird and Xuanwu, sealing them completely again.
The two elders Ouyang Yong and Lion King Cheng could finally move their already stiff bodies, if it weren't for the thousand-year-old demonic power and a strong physique different from human beings, how could they withstand so many days of sleeplessness, Ouyang Hongye and Ouyang Xiaoleng helped Ouyang Yong get up from the ground and sit on the chair next to him, while Lion King Cheng was helped up by Fenghuo and Mochizuki.
As soon as he sat down, Ouyang Yong suddenly came back to his senses and asked, "What about Xia Qiu?" Why didn't I come back with you? ”
"After we met the Feather Crane Immortal in Xianhe Spring Township, he proposed to us the condition of exchanging the Heavenly Fu, that is, to let Xia Qiu stay there to accompany him for a while, although I can't understand why he made this request, but Xia Qiu voluntarily accepted his request for the sake of the demon world, so ......" Ouyang Hongye's words were interrupted by Qianqi before he could finish speaking.
"So they didn't hesitate to trade her." Although it had been many days, when she mentioned this matter, Qianqi still felt anger and frustration in her chest, which made her breathless.
"Don't talk about yourself, as if you weren't with us at the time." Ouyang Xiaoleng retorted.
"She wouldn't listen to my advice, but some people could have persuaded her but didn't." Qianqi did not show weakness.
"Although the Yuhe Immortal does not have much contact with the outside world, I heard that he is a gentle person, and he never goes to places other than Xianhequan Township, so he can be regarded as a reclusive master." Ouyang Yong tried to calm the anger between the two teenagers.
"Maybe it's a weirdo, maybe it's a weirdo of unknown origin." Qianqi said childishly.
"So far, the dispute is in vain, no one can change what has happened, it is better to leave some strength to solve the problem in front of you, and the rest is only to wait." Ouyang Hongye patted Qianqi's shoulder and persuaded.
"Let's take a little rest, and then we can start preparing for the ceremony." Lion Wang Cheng, who had been gasping for a long time on the side, suddenly said.
"The Great Canon? What canon? Ouyang Hongye didn't react for a while.
"Of course, it's Xiao Leng's succession ceremony." Ouyang Yong said with a smile.
