Chapter 56: Forever
It's late at night, and it's silent.
Yuan Huang raised his head and looked out the window, there was nothing there.
He was the only one in this small study.
This is where his father spent most of his life.
Yuan Huang walked out of the room and stood in the dark.
In the corner of the courtyard, there stood a few dark shadows, they were the imperial guards, who had just experienced a humiliation and were now trying their best to protect what little dignity was left.
Yuan Huang raised his head and looked at the night sky without a trace of light.
It was a cloudy day without stars and moons, the air was so cold that it seemed to freeze, and the night sky looked like a whole black ice.
But Yuan Huang could still see the majestic fluctuations in the northern sky.
That's the Gate of Heaven.
That is the lack of heaven, the wheel of God, the source of calamity.
It was the rushing clouds, the twisted knots, the walls of the gods.
Yuan Huang stood there quietly, thinking to himself, maybe it was really the same as in the legend, it was a gate between the good gods and the evil gods, and for those who were lucky enough to live in the world of good gods, every time the gate was opened, it meant a terrible disaster.
The prophecy of the ancient capital was not enough to convince Yuan Huang, but the demons had their own research on the Fallen Heaven Gate, and everything indisputably pointed to one thing - the Fallen Heaven Gate was about to open, and a new outsider was about to come.
It was a war that would destroy the world.
So Yuan Huang will not allow anything that might make him fail to exist.
Whatever that thing is.
......
The third prince stood in front of the gate of the imperial city and suddenly began to hesitate to leave.
Last night, he received a message from Yuan Qing and the death of the sixth prince one after another, and although he was shocked in his heart, he also began to feel that his brothers would definitely deal with Yuan Huang together.
But now, standing in front of the gate of the imperial city, he didn't see the eldest prince, the second prince, and the fifth prince, and the third prince suddenly felt a wave of fear attack.
However, when he saw that the Seventh Prince, the Eighth Prince, and the Ninth Emperor were all by his side, he was relieved again.
The door opened, and the three of them entered. Passing through the square and around the main hall, they saw Yuan Huang in the emperor's study.
He is now the emperor.
Thinking so, the third prince flashed a trace of knife-like pain in his heart.
"There is one thing I want to discuss with you, this is a family matter, it is not good to talk about it in the outside court and let others talk about it. ”
The three of them sat on the side, not knowing what Yuan Huang wanted to say.
The third prince hesitated, not knowing whether to talk about Yuan Qing's death, but the two brothers beside him didn't mean to speak, so he didn't interrupt Yuan Huang.
"The abolished prince Yuan Bai, the eldest prince Yuan Hei, the fifth prince Yuan Lu, unruly, when the first emperor was there, he tolerated a lot, and he couldn't bear to deal with it with the hope of the prodigal son, and now it seems that it is a piece of kindness to the beast!"
The third prince was startled, he wanted to say something, but Yuan Huang didn't give him a chance, and the fourth prince, or rather the emperor, stood up excitedly, as if his heart was full of suppressed anger, and walked back and forth on the ground in the middle of the room.
"They actually slandered the emperor!"
The third prince almost couldn't help laughing.
This is a crime that is too child's play, the demons are not afraid of slander at all, language is a weapon for the weak to them, vulnerable and stupid.
"How can it be, although they have a bad temper, they always respect their father. ”
Yuan Huang turned around and glanced deeply at the third prince.
"They said that my father made me emperor because he was blind and confused. ”
The third prince felt a little embarrassed.
Of course his brothers said so, and even he himself said so, countless times.
"That's not going to be ......"
"Father's bones are not cold!" Yuan Huang roared, "Death in front of everyone's eyes!"
"That's it! You're still scolding him in your hearts!"
Facing the beast-like Yuan Huang, the third prince began to feel fear.
He suddenly understood that if Yuan Huang was willing, the three people here would also die quietly like Yuan Qing.
After all, he is now the emperor.
"I'm going to let them think about it behind closed doors!"
"Your Majesty. ”
......
Bai Gongzi stood in front of the window, looking at the sleeping Magellan.
Her breathing struggled, but she was controlled by a special technique, and she didn't make a sound.
Bai Gongzi stood silently, silent for a long time.
Then she reached out and picked up Magellan's sword.
It was a dangerous weapon that was as heavy and sharp as it was amazing, and Bai Gongzi even felt a palpitation in his heart for a moment, as if there was a dangerous soul in the sword who wanted to take her life.
Then Bai Gongzi put the long sword on Magellan's throat.
Magellan opened his eyes.
He looked at Bai Gongzi and didn't say a word.
"I think this is the only chance that I will have time to ask all the questions while I am sure I will kill you. ”
Magellan laughed.
"A god once told me that for those who seek answers, the answer is not untouchable, but incomprehensible. ”
"There are no gods in this world. ”
Bai Gongzi's voice was weak, but there was a chilling cold determination in her eyes.
"If you answer incorrectly, you die. Magellan smiled in a twisted pain, "Then you can kill me." ”
His bloodline has not yet recovered, the remaining dark wounds of the Qingque Book have not been cleared, and Bai Gongzi, although his internal injuries have not recovered, is only weak, as she said, this is the only chance, Bai Gongzi is completely sure that he will let Magellan do anything.
"Why did you kill the emperor?"
Magellan did not answer.
"Why, the emperor is dead, and you are still relieved?"
"I thought it would be a familiar place, but it turned out to be a disappointment. ”
"Because of this, you have killed so many people, including the emperor, and even so, you are still not relieved?"
A hint of disappointment flashed in Bai Gongzi's eyes.
"Death to the murderer. Are emperors different from others? All men are created equal, but they are born different. ”
Bai Gongzi was silent for a moment.
For a moment, she was immersed in the distant past, her thoughts in turmoil.
"So, what would you do to put you at ease?"
Magellan was expressionless and silent.
"Man should always save himself. ”
"What will you do after this?"
"I'm going to the maelstrom. ”
"Fallen Heaven Gate......" Bai Gongzi put down the long sword, it was too heavy, if she continued to insist, the trembling blade would cut Magellan's throat, "So everything you did in this place, including killing the emperor, was just a passing by?"
"I won't do more, I killed the emperor......" Magellan sat up quietly and looked at Bai Gongzi, "Has it changed here?"
