Chapter 740: One Person, One Lonely City
"Whatever, but I didn't let you talk about him. But since it's a 'dream fish', you can try it...... But...... No, forget it......" Lilou hesitated slightly. He didn't think that Xia Yanfeng would give him a positive answer, but if it was a dream fish, Xia Yanfeng should be blunt. Lilou couldn't accept a sad outcome, even if he was mentally prepared. She has a secret agent, it doesn't mean that Xia Yanfeng doesn't, at this time in Glora City, has her disappearance become "news"?
In fact, this is just Lilou's quick tongue for a while, and it is pointless to talk about it casually. Xia Yanfeng didn't need to be monitored at all, she just wanted to further confirm the facts. Now send Guan Lianhua to keep an eye on Xia Yanfeng, then the same cat appears twice, and it is impossible for Xia Yanfeng not to be suspicious. Lilu just wants to cultivate Shangguan Lianhua into a new elite in the transformation world, after all, Shangguan brothers and sisters, at present, one can only become a human, and the other can only become a cat, Lilu herself doesn't like to change around, but if the truth of fate's choice is destined to make her heart waver, then she can only follow the flow to do meaningless "transformation".
Lilu needs to take everything into her hands, although this trip is inevitably suspected of talking to herself, but in the final analysis, he just wants to make sure that he can contain Xia Yanfeng's heart, and even if her true identity is exposed, Xia Yanfeng will stand by her side and bear the betrayal of the world with her. But it's just a fool's dream and a fantasy, Xia Yanfeng will not be that kind of person, for betrayers, Xia Yanfeng can become a devil in a second. Lilu doesn't want to come hard, the kind of soul that was forcibly taken away is meaningless to her, Xia Yanfeng will make a choice, even if it is not her who chooses, she will no longer show that she is sorry, she has already gotten it, and it is providential to lose it again.
Cultivating Shangguan Lianhua is just a gesture, as long as Shangguan Lianhua's lively personality can be properly suppressed, it is not difficult to become a good hand at transforming freely, after all, there is still talent. But what worries Lilu more is the other side of the story.
Bochum didn't come back, but Lilou knew everything about it. Bochum had slain the lone Grechia, and for Lilou, it was not her pain to do so, and it was not necessarily in her favor for the lord. "Xiahou Gang" is currently leading Sun Chao's old troops to clear out the remnants of the nearby Demon Legion, and Xiahou Gang came this time without Xia Yanfeng or Sun Chao's orders. Lilu has an order first, even if she deals with the demon clan, she can be ruthless, so "Xiahou Gang" will not go overboard no matter how much she plays.
Xiahou had just left the city to suppress the demons, and Lu Yusen also embarked on the journey back to the base camp early, according to the secret agent's report, Sutrun's main force had gone to Qigu Mo City, he locked the direction, and left the same day. And Sun Chao, also when the moon was dark and the wind was high, took Zhou Tiexiong, Pan Jinrui and the three thousand military horses in the city, together with the one thousand troops of the headquarters, quietly went out of the city and went south in the night.
Wandering through the streets and alleys that have not changed, wandering in the palatial but cold and lonely palace corridors, everything is the same as before, but the people of the past are no longer there. The dynasty has changed, and the old people have withered one after another, but the palace is still a palace, and the prosperity of the predecessors has been mourned again and again with the silence of the years.
It's still thriving, here and beyond. On the top of the majestic hall, Xia Yanfeng let out an arrogant laugh that belonged to him alone, from the depths of his heart!
Xia Yanfeng couldn't stop the arrogance in his heart, he couldn't bear it for a long time, and the hurdles in his heart were not comfortable for anyone else. Now, the hall, which symbolizes the rise and fall of glory, is the only one left dancing alone!
He has time to dance solo! Here, the world belongs only to him, and he can enjoy the glory to the fullest! However, is this kind of glory really the "treasure" that he "dreams of"? Hehe...... How could he Xia Yanfeng only have such a little ambition?
Laughing unbridledly, he sat back on the throne that belonged to him today, which should have been done only by Sutron. Sitting on the throne, it is like a very "emperor"! Xia Yanfeng can be rampant to his heart's content!
Touching the golden border of the throne, the evil smile surged like a black tide! He smiled, laughing as hideously as a devil! Anyway, now, there is no one else in Trainn City, and he has really become the "boss"! He has taken over the affairs of the city, and now he will not be in charge of even if he directly establishes himself as the king in Tryan City, or becomes the lord of the city.
Xia Yanfeng felt ridiculous when he thought about it, Sutrun They fought bloodily on the front line, but he took advantage of the situation and easily got his rear base. And now this can only be regarded as a "drill", and how to play the mutiny and coup d'état is something that should be considered in the future. Now it's just a simulation, and with this leisure, he can settle some things well.
However, Xia Yanfeng, who traveled all over the city and finally settled in the palace, couldn't help but feel a little different from the past. That slight melancholy always accompanied him, and inexplicably made him feel a little unhappy. Could it be that there is less flow of people in the city? But in this chaotic season, those rich families must have fled to the south for refuge, but this is also good, the more desolate the north, the more it proves that the south will become richer, with the migration of large families, the economic center of gravity is moving more and more south, which can be of great help to Sun Chao's development of the foundation!
What made Xia Yanfeng feel melancholy, but he was so duplicitous that he almost didn't even recognize himself. He played a "big fool" with Sun Chao and Lu Yusen, and said a series of "big rebellions". When it comes to persuasion, he may not be so good at fighting, but he is better than fanning the flames, at least he is the most powerful of the seven brothers. If they didn't have different intentions, Xia Yanfeng wouldn't be able to move them, and it would be impossible for them to get around Guo Xing and them to the point where they are now "favored". And Guo Xing thought that he had unlimited potential, and even wanted to cultivate him for a while, which was a very absurd statement, but it was taken seriously by Guo Xing.
Whether there is ambition or not, Lu Yusen's initial mentality when he followed Guo Xing was the same as Xia Yanfeng, and Sun Chao was also said to have a sore spot in his heart before, they all wanted to be independent and self-reliant like Xia Yanfeng. But most of those rebellious words, and even those provocative words that want to betray their brothers and break up their teammates, are only said for the benefit of their tongues, and their mouths are like knives, but their hearts are comparable to cotton.
Every time I think back to the battle against the Demon King of the World, Fanil, his desperate performance, even sacrificing his life to defend his brother, is not as cold-blooded and ruthless as it is now. He knew that his strength was very different from that of his opponent, he knew that even if he touched a trace of breath, he might be wiped out, and he knew that he had no chance of winning, but he still went, regardless of the persuasion of Mengyu and others, and vowed to live and die with all his brothers. That time, he was ready to die, and he couldn't have expected the Qinggang Sword to appear in advance. He really thought that he would die and go to the abyss of destruction with his brothers, but he resolutely gave up the only chance to escape, and resolutely left Mengyu and others in the rear, and rushed to the battlefield of death alone. At that time, he really couldn't bear to watch the miserable situation of his brothers being abused, and he couldn't stand idly by!
But now, has everything changed? Could it be that only at the most critical moment can Xia Yanfeng admit that Guo Xing is his brother? Fighting against the Demon King, he is still not afraid, just because he has strong support for his brothers behind him, but now he is lonely and lonely, and even has a tendency to be cranky, is it because he has not yet gotten rid of his dependence on others? Isn't he going to become a strong man? But ...... That's just a strong man, not a king......
Recalling the beginning, the most dangerous moment, in front of the demon king, he shouted to Guo Xing and others "Because we are brothers", all of which moved the brothers to the fullest. That was the only "sincere" and the only touching sentence he had ever said to his brothers, and no matter what he said at the time, he would have been considered "honest". Until now, Xia Yanfeng couldn't believe that such words would come from him, had he forgotten the purpose of defecting to Guo Xing in the first place?
No, he didn't forget, he just didn't want to remember. As his enlightenment mentor, without Guo Xing, he would not be where he is today, but those past events cannot become an obstacle to his future progress. The so-called fetters are meaningless, he lied to himself again and again, he shouldn't be moved by those guys, but reality slapped him mercilessly several times.
The battle of Kaolan, Xia Yanfeng in the city, and Guo Xing under the city, before they were identified, fought to the death, and fought against the soldiers, from then on, he shouldn't have to care about any friendship, right? At that time, he really wanted to weaken the combat power of the Human Guild, and since he didn't know each other, he didn't need to care which side he was on. If you want to talk about true friendship, Xia Yanfeng probably only recognizes one person, and that is the only "Sister Mengyu" he can trust in this world.
"Hu ......" another wild thought, Xia Yanfeng woke up like a dream. Remembering that now he is the only important member of the guild in the city, he can do whatever he wants, but he is not in a hurry to have fun. Now the most fatal weakness of the city under the rule of the Human Guild has been exposed in the slaughter of the Demon Legion, this is a lesson in exchange for blood, so the defense rectification of the city is urgent, but this can not be rectified overnight, and Xia Yanfeng is not in a hurry at this time.
Xia Yanfeng instructed his subordinates to prepare food, and when he remembered that he wanted to be like the emperor again, enjoying that large table of delicacies from the mountains and seas alone, he not only did not feel excited, but even more lonely. He was not afraid of such loneliness, but at this time, he remembered the full banquet at the beginning, which was like this in the guild, between brothers, and in the Yuan family's Zhongguo, but now, it was like an illusion of being isolated by the whole world...... No! It's not that he's isolated from the world, it's that he's isolating the world!
The "Lilou ......" dish is in the mouth, the wine is in the stomach, and the taste of loneliness is infinitely pouring into the heart. And when Xia Yanfeng muttered to himself, the first name he blurted out would actually be "her"!
The imperial chefs in the palace are all personally **, but Xia Yanfeng is not a chef, except for "tomato scrambled eggs", he can't do anything. But with this "one trick", he was praised by every imperial chef. And the only "tomato scrambled eggs" he can make is from his sister Xia Chengcheng, he only made it twice in his life, and each time it was made for someone he regarded as a treasure in his heart.
The first time he made "scrambled eggs with tomatoes" was for Narcissus, and he didn't cook it again for years, but he never forgot how to make it, and the second time, he was not new, but he had made it for Lilou in his private house in Glora City not long ago, and when he ate it again, his heart sank slightly. Because, how much he likes it, how good it is to have Lilu by his side and Lilu at this moment......
