In the dark attic of the ancient castle, the Demon Emperor stood quietly in front of the window.

He folded his hands and stared into the ethereal void.

The stars loomed under the vastness of the smoke waves, and the bright moon was also half covered by a few floating clouds.

On such a peaceful night, his mood was not at slight.

At this moment, he is very entangled in his heart.

He struggled with not knowing whether he should do it or not, and he didn't know what the consequences would be if he did.

Don't dare to act rashly, this stems from his identity.

As the Demon Emperor, his every move, word and deed implicates countless creatures in this dark empire.

In the eyes of outsiders, this Demon Emperor is the most beautiful in the world, but the pain in his own heart is only clear to himself.

"Alas......"

With a long sigh, the Demon Emperor slowly shook his head.

"You guy, why do you go to make all the fun. ”

A trace of compassion flashed in his eyes, and he muttered to himself,

"That's a dead end......"

The whispers slowly dissipated, and there was dead silence in the attic.

He recognized the black-robed figure that entered the Valley of the Dead that day, and he knew very well that the owner of the figure had discovered him.

Thinking of that figure, the corners of the Demon Emperor's mouth lifted a slight arc.

"You guy, you're always so unexpected. ”

A faint smile slowly dissipated, and a trace of sorrow welled up between his brows.

"But now, what exactly am I supposed to do?"

He hung his head and muttered to himself, but received no answer.

The Demon Emperor seems to be caught in a whirlpool of reincarnation, and he can't find the answer he has been searching for.

The night is like condensation, and the breeze is coming.

A few strands of messy hair swayed gently in the wind, and the Demon Emperor seemed to have lost himself in this drunken night.

Suddenly, the tranquility was shattered.

I saw a figure that appeared behind him strangely.

"Your Majesty. ”

"How?"

The Demon Emperor put away his gloomy color and opened his mouth lightly.

"Matthews. ”

Grand Wizard Matthews respectfully bowed and said,

"The Canyon of the Dead has been completely closed, and the Evil Spirit King should be ready to make a move. ”

The Demon Emperor's lips pursed tightly, and he said no more.

He looked into the distance, and there seemed to be some confusion in his eyes.

Seeing His Majesty the Demon Emperor with such an expression, Grand Wizard Matthews hesitated slightly.

He opened his mouth slightly, but said nothing.

"Hoo ......"

With a sigh of relief, the Demon Emperor turned around.

He looked at Matthews, who looked hesitant, and said slightly,

"One hundred and eighty-three. ”

The red eyes were full of compassion.

It seems to be a slight sigh, and it seems to be a little unbearable.

"One hundred and eighty-three talented people in my Dark Empire may have fallen like this. ”

Spread out your palms and magically feel the breeze blowing through your palms.

"They are all so young and full of yearning for the future, but they don't know why, so they die so inexplicably. ”

"His Majesty the Demon Emperor. ”

Matthews was ruthless, and then spoke,

"Their deaths are all valuable, as long as Erin dies, Adema's halberd will not see the light of day, then the empire will last at least a hundred years. If there were a war, I am afraid that the empire would have lost hundreds of times more than this one hundred and eighty-three times. ”

"Matthews. ”

The Demon Emperor looked at his empty palm, and then laughed miserably.

"Although I know it very well, I still can't bear it. ”

Hearing this, Grand Wizard Matthews shuddered violently.

"Your Majesty!"

The Demon Emperor retracted his palms and looked at the void again.

Although he has long recognized the stakes, he has long made up his mind to make this decision. But at this point, I still can't convince myself. After seeing these young people, it dawned on me that maybe we also have a promising future. ”

Matthews had a solemn look on his face, and he seemed to have suddenly understood the words of the Demon Emperor.

"Your Majesty, the future may be promising, but how can we predict the future......?

With a frown, Grand Wizard Matthews said with a little difficulty,

"Besides, we don't have time. ”

With a wry smile, the Demon Emperor said lightly,

"I know, Matthews. ”

The bright moon was still in the sky, and the smoke clouds slowly dissipated.

Looking at the silver-white world sprinkled with moonlight, the Demon Emperor was quite lonely.

"But I still believe in the future, just like the teacher believed in me back then......"

......

The slender blade of the sword refracted back with dazzling light.

The word 'Liuyun' on the sword's body deeply stabbed Carmen's eyes.

Staring at these two words, he suddenly had a sense of déjà vu.

"These two words ......"

Carmen spoke slightly, muttering to herself.

"Why do you think you've seen it somewhere?"

The aura circulating in the field brought an extremely abnormal feeling to the four of them.

It's a fluctuating feeling, but it's real. It was as if the woods were a dream, and they were all immersed in it. But when they felt the ground under their feet and the trees around them, they realized that this was definitely reality.

"Hoo ......"

With a long sigh of relief, Carmen shook her head violently.

He seemed to be trying to dispel all the doubts in his mind, because he knew that now was not the time to think about it.

"Be careful, everyone. ”

The corners of Carmen's eyes jumped slightly.

"There's something wrong with this wood!"

The three Knights of the Round Table behind him had already sensed that something was wrong, but they couldn't tell if there was anything wrong. Experienced in a hundred battles, they have a special sensitivity to danger, so several of them have already raised their defenses to the highest level.

"Carmen, here'......"

A knight behind him spoke slightly, and the look of vigilance in his eyes became thicker and thicker.

"How ...... here"

Before he could finish speaking, Carmen suddenly raised her hand to interrupt him.

The momentary confusion of his divine consciousness made him feel a strange aura.

"Who is the master here, please show up!"

Carmen was furious.

"Since the sword has appeared, why should Your Excellency hide!"

Voices echoed through the woods, but no one was answered.

It wasn't until there was a moment of silence that a heavy sigh rang out above the heads of the four Knights of the Round Table.

"Alas......"

Carmen and the other four were startled, and the vigilance of the whole body was raised to the highest.

None of them felt the direction of the comer, as if they were blindfolded by a pair of invisible palms.

"You guys......"

Just when the four of them were nervous, a black-robed figure appeared strangely in the field.

"You two guys are really lucky. ”

Looking at Alice and Mousse, who were already unconscious, the corners of the black-robed man's mouth under the cold mask rose slightly.

"When Lao Tzu was hunted down and killed, he didn't have such a good life as you. ”

The black-robed man didn't know what he remembered, so he sneered and shook his head slowly.

He seemed to be glad for Alice and Mousse, and seemed to be quite self-deprecating.

"Who is Your Excellency?"

Carmen's face tightened, and a solemn glint appeared in her eyes.

"Why don't you dare to show your true face?"

Hearing Carmen's question, the black-robed man turned his head.

A blazing gaze shot out of the hole in the pale mask, and the look seemed very calm.

This calmness is natural, as natural as a gust of wind sweeping through your body.

Seeing this figure, Carmen did not dare to be careless at all. He looked at him and exuded his spiritual power to investigate, but found that there was no trace of darkness or light on the comer's body.

"Civilians?"

Carmen's heart was slightly relieved, and the tip of the sword he lifted drooped slightly.

"How can civilians end up in the Canyon of the Dead?"

The afterglow swept over the long sword in the field, and his shoulders suddenly shuddered.

"That's not right!"

The heart that had just been put down suddenly tightened violently, and Carmen's slightly relaxed defense immediately raised another level.

"If it's a civilian, how can you force us back with a sword!"

Thinking of this, Carmen's hand gripping the hilt of the sword tightened a little.

The tip of the long sword raised pointed directly at the black-robed man, and the quaint emblem also shone brightly under the waning moon.

"Who the hell is Your Excellency, why are you stopping my Holy Light Church from acting!"

Looking at Carmen quietly, the black-robed man shrugged his shoulders slightly.

"I don't know what your Holy Light Church is going to do, and I don't bother to care what you do, but this is my territory now, so whatever grudge you have with the two of them, please think about it later. Today, I'll keep them. ”

"Your territory?"

Carmen narrowed her eyes slightly.

"I haven't heard of anyone in this Canyon of the Dead. ”

The black-robed man chuckled, then reached out behind them.

"From the moment you step into this forest, you have entered my territory. ”

Raising his chin slightly, the black-robed man's eyes showed a look of pride.

"It took me three days of hard work to lay out this Five Elements Phantom Array, and you are naturally in my territory in this formation. ”

"Five Elements Phantom Array?"

Carmen frowned slightly, as if she didn't understand the black-robed man's words.

Because of this Five Elements Phantom Array, he had never heard of it.

"No matter what kind of array you set up, and no matter who you are. ”

Carmen's face sank, and then she said aloud,

"I have better not interfere in the affairs of my Holy Light Church. ”

Gritting her teeth fiercely, Carmen's hostility was not disguised in the slightest.

"The Knights of the Round Table of the Holy Light Church is not something Your Excellency can afford to provoke!"

Hearing this, the black-robed man spread his hands.

"As I said, I'm too lazy to meddle with things, but I have some connections with Duke Assamet, so I won't let you take people away. ”

Hearing this, the faces of the four changed in unison.

They looked at the powerless black-robed man in front of them, and they had a faint sense of foreboding in their hearts.

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

There was a faint murderous intent in Carmen's eyes.

"Although I don't know your identity, no matter who you are in this Canyon of the Dead, you can only exert the combat power of the seventh-order peak. ”

A sneer hung on the corner of her mouth, and Carmen said slowly,

"Even if you are a seventh-order pinnacle, I don't think you can resist the combined efforts of our four Knights of the Round Table. ”

Carmen's words didn't pose the slightest threat to the black-robed man, on the contrary, the guy smiled and shook his head indifferently.

"If I were somewhere else, I wouldn't think I would be able to resist the four of you knights who are holding quasi-holy relics. Or if I hadn't succeeded in marrying yesterday, then I wouldn't be able to take care of this idle matter today. ”

With full confidence in his laughter, the black-robed man seemed to be confident.

"But here and now, with the strength of the Jindan Period, I will urge this Five Elements Phantom Array......"

The cold light emitted from the hole in the pale mask made the four of them tremble in unison, and the killing intent exuded by the black-robed man at this moment carried a strong aura of danger!

"You really can't take people away!"
