Outside the main city of the Principality of Assamet, a secluded path.

It snowed heavily last night and will stop this morning.

Thousands of trees are covered in silver, and the green hills in the distance are vast.

This path is usually rarely walked, and only the occasional Orion passes.

At this time, the snow covered the mountain, and there were no traces on the path, but there were two figures, standing in the snow.

The wind stopped and the snow was quiet, and thousands of miles were frozen. Enjoying the scenery here is also a unique taste.

In the eyes of outsiders, the two should be the people of the wind and snow, and they are here just to watch the scenery. But Snake would never think so, because he actually hates snow.

After all, on that nameless snow peak that snows all year round, he has never encountered anything good. In other words, he didn't meet any good people there.

Snow Peak was the only place where he and Anfil could meet privately, and it was once the place where the gods of light and darkness played against each other.

The two great gods are both strong men who turn their hands into clouds and rain, and they have also laid an enchantment with their own hands on this snow peak, one of the purposes of which is to prevent outsiders from setting foot here. And the second is that if one day, when the two play chess to the point where they disagree and fight, the aftermath of the battle can not be affected.

Therefore, on this dark light continent, only this snow peak is the most suitable for Snake to meet Anphil. Because the relationship between these two people is very similar to the two great gods back then.

Snake hates snow, but Li Yanbei is the opposite. Not only did he enjoy the snow, but he also preferred to drink and dance on snowy nights.

Seeing this situation, Li Yanbei's heart suddenly flashed over Erin's pretty face.

He knew he would be glad if Erin was here.

Thinking of Erin, Li Yanbei's heart gradually became heavy.

That story has been spread among the people in the city, and the relationship between himself and Fiona has also been made public.

Fiona is now his wife, the only wife.

Even if she's gone.

Erin must have heard of it, after all, she is the only saint in this continent. And what news did she not know?

She didn't say a word, and she didn't say anything. His Royal Highness Roy's hidden identity was revealed to the world, and she didn't seem to react.

The marriage contract between the two empires is shaky, and the relationship between the two empires of darkness and light is also in jeopardy. Now the situation on this continent has been tense to the limit. Everyone believed that the war would most likely start at the next moment.

The major principalities in the empire have begun to prepare for war, and the iron cavalry on the border have also begun to actively prepare for war. There are not many places as tranquil as this mountain and snow scene.

"Snake. ”

Looking at Snake, Li Yanbei spoke leisurely.

"Thank you for the trouble. ”

Snake waved his hand, then let out a long sigh.

"Don't do anything to cause trouble in the future. ”

Hearing Snake's teasing words, the corners of Li Yanbei's mouth unconsciously set off an arc.

He hadn't laughed in a long time, and when he faced Alice, he was afraid that Alice would be worried, so all the smiles he made were forced to laugh.

And now Snake's words made him feel warm from the bottom of his heart.

Although he didn't have much contact with this Demon Emperor, Li Yanbei had a rare friendship with him.

Ever since he first met in Black Rock City, he had inexplicably had a good impression of the chief deacon of this dark veil.

And then experienced many things, whether it was as the Demon Emperor or as the chief deacon

Snake has always been helpful to himself. After all that he had been through, he also talked about Snake as a friend.

Just started smiling, Li Yanbei's face froze again.

Suddenly, he remembered something, something very important.

"Snake, your identity ······"

Li Yanbei's face was worried.

"Does the Holy Emperor know?"

Snake shrugged his shoulders and made a gesture of indifference.

"I don't think so. ”

Raising an eyebrow slightly, Snake looked into the distance.

"That crazy woman, I know her too well. ”

"But I don't know now, but sooner or later I'll know. ”

Li Yanbei frowned slightly.

"After she knows about it, will she go to war directly?"

Snake scoffed.

"At war?"

He pursed his lips disdainfully.

"Even though the chief deacon of the Shadows doesn't exist, I don't think she's stupid enough to think she's going to win. ”

Li Yanbei was a little puzzled.

"One less strong enemy who is enough to change the tide of the battle, why doesn't she dare to make a move?"

The smile on Snake's face widened.

"There is one less prince-level chief deacon of the dark curtain, but there is one more Li Yanbei who can seriously injure the prince, think about it, will Anfil think that the strength of our dark empire is weak, or has it strengthened?"

Looking at Snake's shy smile, Li Yanbei shook his head and smiled.

"The first time I saw you, I knew you were a treacherous fellow. ”

"Cut, if you don't have this ability, how can you maintain peace on this continent for a hundred years?"

Instead of being ashamed, Snake raised his chin.

"I've been creating the illusion of the chief deacon of the dark curtain for more than a hundred years, and if it weren't for you, I would have been able to pretend to be able to do it again. As long as the chief deacon of the Dark Veil exists for a day, Anfil will not dare to go to war easily. ”

The humor in Snake's words finally infected Li Yanbei. He punched Snake with a smile, and his mood relaxed a lot.

"You guy. ”

Snake raised his chin triumphantly.

"Do you know what I'm doing best?"

Li Yanbei sneered.

"Is this still a guess? It must have been the angry expression on her pretty face when she learned that the chief deacon and the demon emperor were alone. ”

Hearing this, Snake laughed.

"Yes, yes, it's fun to think about. This crazy woman has been tricked by me for more than a hundred years, hahaha······"

Snake's hearty laughter made Li Yanbei's originally sad mood relax a lot.

When you are sad, it is best to have a friend with you.

Although Li Yanbei knew that Snake was also trying his best to make himself feel better. Although it is not ruled out, he is also covering up the sadness of parting with a forced smile.

"Alright, I'm leaving. ”

Li Yanbei patted Snake on the shoulder.

"I can't thank you enough. ”

Snake turned, and the smile on his face began to grow unnatural.

He knew that no one could persuade the person in front of him to decide something.

"Today, a month from now, I will transfer Anfil out of the Holy Imperial City. ”

The smile had completely dissipated, and Snake's face began to become solemn.

"The dungeons of the Holy Light Inquisition aren't that easy to break through, and the Presiding Inquisitor Kyle isn't Hikari. ”

Seeing Snake's face, Li Yanbei's smile was reversed

And it's a little thicker.

"I don't want to be an enemy of that blood-winged archangel, but now only Gagson knows how to summon demons. ”

With a long sigh, Li Yanbei looked in the direction of the Holy Emperor City.

"That unlucky guy was so careless, he was captured alive by the Holy Emperor. ”

"Well deserved. ”

Seeing Li Yanbei's loveless appearance, Snake suddenly laughed.

"I can imagine you being ravaged by Kyle. ”

Li Yanbei rolled his eyes.

"Can you change the word?"

Hearing this, Snake smiled even more happily.

He stopped talking and looked in the direction of the Holy Emperor City with Li Yanbei.

After Li Yanbei returned from the Empire of Light to the Empire of Darkness, the Church of the Holy Light launched a major operation.

They destroyed the dungeons of the Black Alliance at all costs, capturing Gargerson alive. And the people of those Black Alliances suffered heavy casualties, and only a very few escaped.

Li Yanbei wanted to go to the underworld, but he didn't know where the entrance to the underworld was. Until one day he suddenly remembered that it seemed that the Black Alliance's summoning array could summon Asmodeus.

This was the only information he knew about the underworld, so he wanted to find Gargerson and the five wizards who knew the Evoking Circle. But when he learns that the five wizards have died tragically, he can only target Gerson.

"Alright. ”

Standing silently for a while, Li Yanbei breathed a sigh of relief.

"This time it's really gone. ”

Turning his head to look at Snake, Li Yanbei chuckled.

"I ask you something. ”

Snake blinked.

"What's the matter?"

Li Yanbei looked Snake up and down, and then thought about it and said,

"How long have you been breaking through the barrier?"

Snake spread his hands and said helplessly,

"Ten years ago, I felt the barrier. ”

Li Yanbei patted Snake on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice,

"On the occasion of parting, I will send you a word. ”

Snake looked puzzled.

"Send me a word?"

Li Yanbei smiled faintly.

"The sky you see is not the heaven you see. ”

Hearing Li Yanbei's brainless words, Snake was even more puzzled.

He originally wanted to ask, but suddenly found that there seemed to be some mystery hidden in Li Yanbei's faint smile.

"Gone. ”

Li Yanbei turned around and left, walking unusually freely.

Seeing his fading back, Snake seemed to be stunned for a while.

"The sky I see is not the heaven I see······"

Muttering under his mouth, Snake lost his mind.

And just when he was in a trance, Li Yanbei's distant voice suddenly came from his ears.

When you understand this sentence, it will be the day you break through the barrier. ”

"I'm sure you won't let me down. ”

"I'm waiting for you in the Cave Realm······"

"Brothers······

The echo slowly dissipated, and Snake stood still.

Li Yanbei had already walked away, and the smile on his face had dissipated.

For some reason, when he heard the word 'brother' in Li Yanbei's mouth, his red eyes suddenly became hot.

"Take care ······"

"Brothers······
