Chapter 7: Tianyinjun I.
Everyone in Kazama Ju didn't expect that not long after the water lotus left the Night Secluded Palace, the Nine Heavens King would repeatedly harass the border of the Heavenly Realm, and the Six Pure Heavenly Kings were overwhelmed, so they sent tens of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals to rush to the border and start a fierce battle with the Demon King and Demon Generals led by the Nine Heavens King for three days and three nights.
The Nine Heavens King had been planning for a long time, and the Six Pure Heavenly Kings were negligent in their defense, although they did their best to drive the demon kings and demon generals out of the border, but at the same time, the Heavenly Realm suffered heavy losses, compared to the demon soldiers who were only slightly injured, the heavenly soldiers who suffered thousands of casualties were not blind. On the surface, the Six Pure Heavenly Kings had a slight upper hand, but in fact, this battle had already been lost to the Nine Heavens King. The Nine Heavens King has not yet succeeded to the throne, and for the Six Pure Heavenly Kings, he is just a junior, even if he grits his teeth and sacrifices more heavenly soldiers, he can only admit it.
I thought that the King of Nine Heavens would make a comeback after a short rest, and the border of the Heavenly Realm would always be heavily guarded, but unexpectedly, after a few days of silence, the border was still calm, and the Demon King and Demon General were as if they had never appeared.
Despite this, the Six Pure Heavenly Kings did not dare to relax their vigilance, and sent people to keep an eye on the movements on the border at all times, and even the Heavenly Venerable was on standby, ready to rush to support at any time. Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, two months passed, and there was nothing unusual on the other side of the earth, and the border of the heavenly realm, which had been scorched by the flames, was dead silent.
Some people suspect that this is just a temporary willfulness of the Nine Heavens King, after the war that changed the color of heaven and earth decades ago, the earth realm does not have the ability to counterattack and win. The reason why the Nine Heavens King harassed the borders of the Heavenly Realm was nothing more than to test the strength of the Six Pure Heavenly Kings, deliberately creating panic in a vain attempt to cause chaos in the heavens and the earth.
Some people also say that the Demon Venerable lost his beloved son King Yunyao, the Queen Zun washed her face with tears all day long, and the King of Jiuxiao hit the Heavenly Realm hard, just to find trouble with the Six Pure Heavenly Kings and avenge the Demon Venerable and Queen Zun. First, it is to relieve anger, and secondly, it is also to prove himself and lay a good foundation for an early succession.
But no matter which possibility it is, Kazama is safe for the time being, Shuilian decided to live here, Changqing and Sanbuliu were almost worn out, and they refused to listen to her hard persuasion, so they had no choice but to take the risk to accompany her to be afraid.
Shui Lian knew in her heart that the Nine Heavens King started a war at such a time, to put it bluntly, it was to divert the attention of the Demon Venerable and pull the Demon Venerable back to the reality of the opposition between heaven and earth from the pain of losing Yun Yao. The Demon Venerable and the Six Pure Heavenly Kings are rivals, and the battle between heaven and earth is inevitable, although neither side has recovered its original strength, but the Nine Heavens King's temptation is successful, paving the way for a full-scale attack on the Heavenly Realm in the future.
In this way, the Demon Venerable would not have worked as hard as before to investigate the cause of Yun Yao's death, and even if Queen Venerable had doubts, she would not dare to be an enemy of the Nine Heavens King. The battle between heaven and earth is about to begin, even if the King of Nine Heavens has the greatest suspicion, it is impossible for the Demon Venerable to put him to death, Yun Yao is no longer there, the King of Nine Heavens is the only heir, and he has seventy percent of the military power in the realm.
Demon Venerable needs to retain his strength, he has lost one son, and he can no longer kill each other with another son, at this juncture, he can only endure the pain to support the Nine Heavens King, unless he wants to see the Earth Realm ruled by the Six Pure Heavenly Kings. And Queen Zun knew that she was not the opponent of King Jiuxiao, and she couldn't persuade Demon Venerable to get rid of her heir, so tears could only flow into her heart, watching Yun Yao's death become an eternal mystery.
The King of the Nine Heavens was busy dealing with the Heavenly Realm, training demon generals and demon soldiers, preparing to launch a more fierce attack. The time for this preparation can be as short as a few years or as long as ten years, and during this period, when he succeeds to the throne, the entire realm will be his. Maybe when the Demon Venerable finds out the truth, and then questions the King of Nine Heavens about Yun Yao's matter, I'm afraid that there will be nothing I can do at that time.
Everything was expected by the King of the Nine Heavens, recruiting troops, getting rid of Yun Yao, attacking the Heavenly Realm, and seizing the throne, he turned the planned steps into reality, and the development of the situation was completely in his hands. Even if he didn't defend himself, he didn't have to be responsible for poisoning Yun Yao.
For the sake of the safety of the realm, the Demon Venerable did not thoroughly investigate the cause of Yun Yao's death, he preferred to believe that the murderer was someone else, and passed on the throne to the King of Jiuxiao with doubts. Queen Zun believed in Shuilian's words, but she only had the ability to protect herself, and she could not fight against the King of the Nine Heavens.
Now, who else can deal with the Nine Heavens King? Do you really want Yun Yao to end up unjustly? After a person like the King of the Nine Heavens becomes a Demon Venerable, he will be even more lawless, if even the Heavenly Realm is occupied by him, what will become between heaven and earth?
"Oh, fortunately, before the Nine Heavens King attacked the Heavenly Realm, we collected nine thousand nine hundred and ninety spirits to create a unique spirit weapon to help the Nine Heavens King win the battle. If we drag our feet and cause the demon kings to be defeated, wouldn't it be a big deal, I'm afraid we will all have to go to hell. ”
Three do not leave people to boast of their own merits, but I don't know that he has never received a spirit, but he has long been accustomed to taking the credit of his companions as his own, and boasting that Haikou's face is not red and his heart is not beating.
Changqing glanced at the water lotus basking in the sun in the yard, and sighed with a heavy heart: "It's been more than two months, and the lotus still refuses to speak." ”
"The beloved is gone, and she has nothing to care about." Sitting in front of the window, he picked a grape and threw it to Sanbuliu, "You can take the credit for us, but now you can't stay here and do nothing like us." It's your turn to do something, and I ask you, where is the good place you're looking for, and when will you take us there? ”
Sanbuliu scratched the back of his head and grinned, "I've been everywhere and I haven't found any better place than Kazamai......"
"Are you mistaken?" Changqing raised his eyebrows and glared at San Buliu, "You mean, you want us to continue to live here?" Don't forget, this is the place of the Nine Heavens King, he will find it at any time, and when he finds Ah Lian, you know what the consequences will be. ”
San Buliu blinked his mung bean eyes, and said disapprovingly: "I see that this matter has passed, and the King of Nine Heavens is now busy dealing with the Heavenly King Lao'er, how can we care about what we are doing." Besides, the spirit weapon has also been handed in, and our task is completed, what does he want to do here, aren't you afraid that we will chase him for supernatural powers? ”
"For Ah Lian, I don't want the supernatural powers promised by King Jiuxiao in advance, what else do you want from me." Sanbuliu sighed, picked up the wine jug and poured a few sips, wiping his mouth vigorously, "To be honest, I really can't find a better place, the entire realm is under the nose of the Nine Heavens King, where else can we escape?" He doesn't want to have anything to do with us anymore, even if he lives here, there will be no danger, if he wants to be honest with us, he can be caught hiding in the eighteenth layer of hell. ”
Changqing was silent, although Sanbuliu's words were for his own quibble, but it was not unreasonable. It's just that it's always inappropriate for Water Lotus to stay here, in case one day the King of Jiuxiao remembers, or the Bi Lian Bijun sisters find it, what should they do.
"Okay, Ah San, let's live here." Tilting Gu and Jin frowned slightly, and looked at Shui Lian with one hand on his cheek, "Where Ah Lian is, we will be there, no matter who finds it, don't be afraid." ”
San Buliu pouted: "Fox patriarch, even if you have two brushes, you can't open your eyes and tell nonsense!" Not to mention the King of the Nine Heavens, just Bijun found it is enough for us! However, I appreciate you saying this, there is nothing to be afraid of, the soldiers are coming, the water is coming to cover the earth, there will always be a way. ”
"Yes, when we came back from the Night Temple, we didn't even dare to sleep, and now it's been more than two months, and we haven't lived well." Changqing shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Let's count it as a day, everything has a fate, and it's not up to anyone at all!" ”
"Yes, yes, fate is predestined, why do you want so much uselessness!" Since there is no way to retreat, then you can only resign yourself to fate, San Buliu rubbed his round belly, thinking about where to find something delicious later, and was about to go out, but saw someone coming.
"Hey, hey, why is she here?" San Buliu stomped his feet and pumped his mouth hard, "It's really a good and not a bad spirit, I just said that Bijun's little girl, she came over......"
"Bijun?" Changqing was shocked, and hurriedly got up and rushed out, blocking in front of Shui Lian, staring at the green figure not far away.
The brows of the ancient and modern are getting tighter and tighter, Bi Lian has poisoned King Yun Yao, is he still unwilling to let go of the water lotus? Although the water lotus hurt her eyes, it is not as important as King Yun Yao's life! Isn't she afraid of forcing the water lotus to tell all the "good things" she has done to the Demon Venerable and the Queen!
The three of them did not stay and poured the ancient and modern to protect the water lotus, and the three of them stood in a row and blocked the door, not allowing Bijun to get close to her.
Bijun saw that they had set up a posture, quickened his pace and walked over, stood on tiptoe to look at the water lotus behind them, and said hurriedly: "I promise you, I won't hurt her, you get out of the way!" ”
Sanbu clasped his hands around his chest and hummed disdainfully: "Girl, this is not your Tourmaline Palace, what kind of young lady are you going!" Do you think we're so stupid to believe you're a good person based on your words? ”
Changqing was also full of anger when he saw her: "Say, what are you sisters talking about, don't you think you hurt Ah Lian deep enough?" ”
Bijun didn't bother to explain to them, so he walked directly in front of Gu and Jin, and pulled down his sleeve: "I'm here for serious business, not to trouble you." I know that she is a celestial, her family has come to look for her, I brought that person without telling my sister, you will scare people like this. ”
He shook his head amusedly: "Please make up a good reason for you to deceive people, it is impossible for Ah Lian's only family to come to her, I know this better than you." ”
"I'm not lying, that person claims to be her family, they're all Shui family, aren't they?" Bijun was so anxious that his eyes were red, "I can't leave the Tourmaline Palace for too long, the celestials have come to the earth realm, if they are discovered by my sister, you will all be in danger." Don't hide it anymore, Ah Lian is Water Lotus, she is the eldest lady of Water Garden Palace, the daughter of King Water Garden, right? ”
Tilting his eyes narrowed: "How do you know?" Did the King of the Nine Heavens tell you? ”
"No, it's that person......" Bijun pointed to the man hiding in the forest, "It's him, he came to the Tourmaline Palace through the Yin-Yang Mirror, and I happened to meet him, so I brought him here......"
Looking at the tall man with a haggard face, he wondered, "Who is this?" Isn't Ah Lian's brother a child? ”
Changqing sensed the other party's spiritual power, raised the shining spirit lock in his hand, and warned him: "Stop, don't take another step, otherwise I will be rude to you." ”
"Wait a minute......" Hearing Shuilian's slightly hoarse voice, the three of them looked back at her together.
Shui Lian stood up and looked at the man of unknown origin in disbelief, her pale lips trembled slightly: "Zhiqing, Zhiqing......"
