The Beast Emperor sighed and said: "Child, you must have suffered a lot, it's all because I didn't estimate it at the beginning, I didn't expect that the Holy Dragon Knights you said would participate in this treasure hunt, so that you were in danger, what you said earlier about encountering Furukawa, I know it, he personally came to the orc country, told me about the situation at the time, and hoped to unite with us again, I agreed to his request, now, we and the demon clan are allies again, child, you won't blame me." ”

I smiled and said, "Father, how can I blame you, you did it too right, under the threat of the Holy Dragon Knights, only if our two clans form an alliance can we have some resistance." Didn't they tell you what happened to us, big brother?"

The Beast Emperor sighed and said: "After Panzong and Jin Yin came back, it was as if they had changed people, both of them were extremely silent, only said that you were captured by the people of the Holy Dragon Knights, and did not say the specific details, looking at their appearance, I didn't ask much, and later, I sent people to the Dragon God Empire to negotiate with them, hoping that they could let you come back, but it was refused, half a year has passed, I am worried about your safety every day, this is good, you are finally back." Tell me how you got out of that Holy Dragon Knights. ”

I said emotionally: "Father, it's all bad for children, so you are worried, and you were able to break away from the Holy Dragon Knights thanks to the help of one person." ”

The Beast Emperor asked, "Who?"

I said, "Demon princess Moyue." Don't be surprised, let me start at the beginning. That's the case, when we were crusading against the Demon Clan's Dunde Province...... "I told Moyue about it, but I didn't say that I would destroy Moyue by force, but changed it to seriously injure Moyue." “...... Later, we fell in love with each other, and with her help, I finally escaped. ”

The Beast Emperor smiled: "Besides, as soon as Furukawa left me, the Demon Emperor's messenger arrived, and he wanted me to help him find his daughter Mo Yue in our Orc Country Territory, it turned out that your kid was abducted, where is she now?"

I scratched my head and sneered, "In my house." ”

The Beast Emperor complained, "Then why don't you bring her to me to see, you kid." ”

I said, "I'm afraid you won't accept her." ”

The Beast Emperor shook his head and said, "How can you not accept it, not to mention that the demon clan has formed an alliance with us now, even if it is still antagonistic, as long as you like the girl, your father will support you to chase it." When I come back next time, I will definitely bring her, so that my father can see what kind of girl she is, and I can make my capable son tempted. ”

I nodded and said, "Father, where did the eldest brother and second brother go later?"

The Beast Emperor pondered for a while, and sighed: "Because of your capture, both of them hate their lack of ability and failed to help you, and they have already found a place to retreat and cultivate, either back to the Sasi Territory or to the Yun Na Territory, your two sworn brothers are still very good to you." ”

I miss Panzong and gold and silver very much in my heart, I can't blame them for my loss, if I hadn't gone my own way, there would not have been that kind of result, although I don't regret it now, but I don't want them to blame themselves for this matter anymore, I said to the beast emperor: "Father, I want to go to them." ”

The Beast Emperor's face suddenly sank, and he said, "No, you can't go now." ”

I paused for a moment and said, "Why?"

The Beast Emperor had a painful expression on his face and said, "Because, there is a more important thing for you to do. Do you know that your father is better than King Leo, and he is dying? ”

I was taken aback, with my father's skill and my father's strong body, how could I say that if it doesn't work, it won't work, I hurriedly said: "Father, what's going on." ”

The Beast Emperor said bitterly, "Go and see him yourself, you have to hurry up, because I don't know how long he can hold out." If I go late, I'm afraid I won't even see him for the last time. ”

I felt a blank in my mind, and for a moment, my father's voice and smile kept flashing in front of my eyes, although I used to hate him very much, but he was my father after all, and I had his blood in my veins. "Father, I want to go and see my father now. ”

The Beast Emperor nodded and said, "Go quickly, help me greet him." ”

Bidding farewell to the Beast Emperor, I hurried to my father's mansion in Beamon, father, what's wrong with you?

As soon as I arrived at the gate of the Beamon Palace, the four Beamon beasts who were in charge of guarding the gate immediately bowed down to me. I walked in quickly, and I bumped into my eldest brother, the Brontosaurus. Lei Long was overjoyed when he saw me, and said, "Third brother, you're back." ”

"Big brother, I heard from Your Majesty that my father is sick, what the hell is going on, you can take me to see him. ”

The brontosaurus nodded, turned around and led me towards my father's bedroom. Before I entered the house, I smelled a strong smell of medicine, pushed the door in, the room was empty, my father's big bed was draped with a curtain, I looked at my eldest brother, he motioned for me to come over. I took two steps forward and knelt down in front of my father's bed, "Father, I'm back." ”

The big bed seemed to shake a little, the curtain was lifted a little, and what I saw was a large, wrinkled, shriveled hand, and an old and weak voice came from inside, "Is it Lei Xiang?" I got up from the ground, lifted the curtain, took my father's big cold hand, sat on the edge of the bed, and when I saw my father's appearance, my heart shook wildly, and my face became unusually old, my face was full of wrinkles, my hair turned grayish, and my eyes were dull, showing a kind of gray of death.

"Father, you, what's wrong with you. "I felt my voice tremble a little.

The wrinkles on his father's face moved, and his chapped lips squirmed: "Child, you are finally back, before I die, I am very content to see you again, I die at this age, it is not an untimely death, you don't have to feel sorry for me, I already knew that I couldn't last this year, it's just that I didn't expect it to come so soon." ”

I used my mad spirit to probe my father's meridians, and I found that all my father's meridians seemed to be solidified, without a single gap, and a powerful aura of death continued to flow in his body, repelling my strength. There was a pained look on my father's face, and I hurriedly collected my work and did not dare to continue to investigate.

My father's face gradually calmed down, and he said, "Your kung fu has improved a lot, and it has surpassed me before." Very good, very good, and besides, your abilities seem to have a conflict with this undead curse, but unfortunately, it's too late, if you could have had your current abilities three years ago, maybe, I still have a chance to live, but it's too late now, my body has been severely corroded. Even if the gods come, it can't be undone. ”

"Curse of the Dead, Father, you mean that you have fallen under the curse of the Dead, who is the murderer, you tell me, I will help you take revenge. ”

The father shook his tow and said, "He hurt me, where can it be so cheap to end, he also died in my hands, speaking of which, I am much luckier than him, with the joint efforts of me and your grandfather, he will be turned into powder on the spot." ”

I immediately understood what was going on, "Are you saying that the wound in your body was the same one you suffered when you were dealing with that necromancer with your grandfather?"

Father nodded and said, " It's time to tell you, at the beginning, your grandfather and I met a necromancer, that is, the first level of necromancer, for some reason, we started to move, his necromancer magic opened up another realm, summoned a large number of disembodied undead to attack us, at the beginning, your grandfather and I had no way to resist, in the end, although we worked together to kill him, but at the same time received his last undead curse, I and your grandfather were seriously injured at the same time, later, our injuries healed, and returned to the orc country, at that time my injuries were very serious, and I was about to die。 In order to save me, your grandfather tried his best to heal me when he was also injured, and suppressed the undead curse in my body, but his own injury attacked, and it didn't take long to go, so, in this world, the person I respect the most is your grandfather, if it weren't for your grandfather, I wouldn't have achieved what I have today. Five years ago, I found that my power had gradually become more and more suppressive of the curse, and I spent most of the past five years fighting against this nasty force. Until three years ago, I could no longer completely suppress them, and the undead curse gradually set in my body, causing my body to gradually corrode, and although I tried my best to resist, I still ...... Now, I'm finally like this, kid, it's really time for you to come back, I'm afraid, I'll live three more days at most. ”

I felt something hot in my eyes flow out, "Father, isn't there any way to force that nasty energy out?"

Father shook his head slightly, and said: "It's too late, my whole body's body functions have been completely destroyed, just relying on years of penance to maintain the gentleness of my heart, I can persist until now, don't feel sorry for me, I am the king of Beamon, the first warrior of the orcs, I have lived a good enough life in this life, but I always have a regret in my heart, until I was about to die, I woke up, child, I hope you can do me a favor and make up for my regret, okay?"

My father no longer has the same appearance as before, he is more like an old man in his old age, how can I refuse his request, nodded and said: "You say, as long as I can do it, I will help you achieve it." ”

The father showed a pleased smile and said: "My only regret is your mother, I am sorry for her, under my compulsion, ruined her life, my last wish is that she can come to see me, let me see her again, I don't expect her forgiveness, I just want to meet her, tell her in person, I know I was wrong." ”

I felt a thud in my head, as if it were bursting, and an electric current instantly spread throughout my body, and I felt my nose sore, and I could no longer hold back my emotions, and crawled on top of my father and cried bitterly. My father's big, thin hands caressed my head, as if comforting me. After a long time, I felt that my grief was cathartic a lot, and I slowly raised my head and said resolutely: "Father, I can't guarantee that my mother will come, but I will try my best to persuade her." ”

The father smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, if she really doesn't want to come, forget it." ”

I asked, "Why didn't I meet Thunder Tiger today?" ”

The father sighed and said, "Lei Hu, this kid is very similar to when I was young, he was stubborn and self-serving, and he ...... , forget it, don't talk about it. He has been gone since he came back from you that day, and has not come back until now, and I don't know where he went, and if he comes back to trouble you again, for my sake, you will spare his life. ”

I nodded and said, "I will, Father." ”

The father said with relief: "I am already like this, I will not keep you, your mother is ......."

"I'll try my best. ”

"Okay, then you can go back. I want to take a break. ”

I felt sad and pulled my father's quilt up. Putting down the curtain and walking out of my father's room, the thunder dragon stood at the door, and when he saw me coming out, he said gloomily: "Father, I'm afraid he won't be able to do it." Lei Xiang, do you have a way?"

I shook my head painfully and said, "Father's old injury has recurred, it's too serious, I can't help it, hey, big brother, you take good care of your father, I'll go back first, I'll come back when I'm free." ”

Thunder Dragon nodded and said, "Father has reached the last moment, I hope you can come to see him more." ”

I nodded and said, "I will." ”

With a heavy heart, I left the palace of Beamon, and walked slowly down the street alone, and I was really saddened that my father had ended up like this, but there was nothing I could do to save his dying life. My father's last hope was not only to see his mother, but he certainly hoped that her mother would forgive him, but this was impossible. With my mother's hatred for him, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to convince her to go to my father.

While thinking about it, I had already walked back to my Prince Rui's mansion, and the guard at the door saw me and greeted me, and said, "Your Highness, you can come back, the master mother has come to ask several times." ”

I gave a sigh of encouragement and walked inside. Mo Yue was sitting on the steps in front of the main hall looking at the door, and as soon as she saw my figure, she immediately ran over, "Husband, why have you been there for so long, the family and aunt are worried." ”

I sighed, took Mo Yue's hand and asked, "What about Mother?"

Mo Yue said with some shame: "Mother and Sister Bai Jian are busy calling for dinner, and I can't help, so I'll wait for you here." ”

I nodded and said, "Let's go in." ”

Mo Yue noticed that my expression was a little wrong, and said, "Husband, what's wrong?

I nodded and said, "My father is dying." ”

Mo Yue said in surprise: "What did you say? King Beamon ...... him"

I sighed, "Yes, my father is no longer than King Leo, and his physical condition may not last more than three days." ”

Mo Yue took my hand and said, "Then let's go and tell my aunt quickly, otherwise, her old man will be worried." ”

I smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid, my mother can't wait for my father to die soon." ”

"Why?"

I told Mo Yue about my mother and father in general, "...... Yue'er, do you know? I was so ...... to you at the beginning. Later, I really regret it, I'm afraid that because of the harm I did to you, you will suffer like a mother for the rest of your life, but fortunately, our ending is happy, and I finally got your heart. ”

Mo Yue lowered her head and said, "Auntie is so pitiful!Husband, did you decide to want me because of that incident in the first place?" ”

I smiled and said, "Yes at first." Looking at Mo Yue's gradually turning white face, I continued: "However, later I found out that I really fell in love with you, a ghost elf, since you followed me, I think you have changed a lot, I know, it's all because of me, I can't do without you now, Yue'er, don't think about it, I really love you, I am willing to spend my life to protect you and make you the happiest woman, okay?"

Mo Yue threw herself into my arms and cried bitterly, "Husband, I love you so much, I'm really afraid that you don't want me anymore." ”

I just wanted to comfort her, but my mother's voice came from the door, "Lei Xiang, why did you make Mo Yue cry as soon as you came back, Yue'er, aunt is angry for you." ”

Mo Yue was embarrassed, hurriedly struggled out of my arms, and said, "Auntie, Lei Xiang didn't bully me. ”

The mother held two plates of fragrant dishes in her hand and said with a smile: "You can help him now, and I will see if he doesn't bully you later." ”

Mo Yue's face flushed, and she lowered her head and stopped talking.

In order not to disturb the atmosphere of this dinner, I did not say anything about my father. After a while, a table of delicious food was already on the table, and my mother knew that I liked to eat what she cooked, so she cooked it herself.

Because I came back, my mother was very happy, and frequently gave me and Moyue cloth vegetables, although I was sad in my heart, but I forced a smile to meet my mother's excitement. The meal was finished in a harmonious atmosphere, and Mo Yue often handed over concerned eyes because she knew that I was in a bad mood, which warmed my heart and alleviated my grief a little.

Mother said to Bai Jian: "Jian'er, you let the subordinates clean up, Xiang'er, you and Yue'er come with me." I have something to ask you. ”

I paused for a moment, not knowing what my mother was going to say to me, I glanced at Mo Yue, and followed my mother out of the hall, and my mother led us to her room, let us sit down, and closed the door by myself, I asked, "Mom, what do you want to ask me?"

My mother glanced at me and said, "What can you say now?" ”

I shook my head and said, "What did you say?"

The mother smiled slightly and said, "If I can't even see what my son is thinking, how can I be your mother, when you were eating just now, your expression was wrong, what happened, tell me, what are the difficulties, let your mother help you think of a way." ”

I looked into my mother's eyes full of wisdom, sighed, and said, "Mom, I want to ask you for something. ”

The mother was surprised, "Please, what's the matter?" ”

I groaned for a moment and said, "Mom, do you know? ”

As soon as I mentioned my father, my mother's face suddenly sank, and she turned her back to me and said, "Didn't I tell you a long time ago, don't mention that beast in front of me, what does it have to do with me when he is sick, it is better to die." ”

I had known that my mother would have this reaction, and sighed, "Mom, this time, I'm afraid he is really going to die." ”

The mother's body shook, turned around, and said, "What did you say?"

I looked at my mother's surprised face and said, "I said, this time my father is probably going to die." ”

The mother snorted coldly, "He will die, with his physique, it will die so easily?" ”

"Mom, it's true, my father was cursed by the necromancer in his early years, and now because of his age, he can't suppress the power of the curse, and he began to attack three years ago, and recently, he finally can't support it, I'm afraid, he can't survive for three days, when I went to meet the Beast Emperor today, I couldn't believe it when the Beast Emperor told me about my father's condition, but when I arrived at the Beamon Palace, it was even more serious than what the Beast Emperor said, my father was no longer my father, and he had completely changed. "When I think of my father's old and helpless appearance, I feel uncomfortable all over my body, and there are constant pains in my heart.

After listening to my words, my mother's face turned a little pale, and after a while, she said: "This is also his own fault, he doesn't know how many people he has killed in his life, this can be regarded as his retribution." ”

I couldn't refute my mother's words, because what she said was not wrong, and there were definitely eight hundred people who died at my father's hands, if not a thousand, I gritted my teeth and said, "Mom, my father said that he only had one last wish before he died, and he wanted to see you again and apologize to you in person." ”

My mother burst out laughing violently, "Apologize? What did he do to me, can it be solved by apologizing? He wants to see me? No, no, I don't want to see him again, I don't want to see any brute, let him die, let him die, I want him to die." ”

Mo Yue and I were stunned, we didn't expect that my mother, who was still kind and angry and full of laughter during the meal just now, would become like this at this time. I stepped forward, grabbed my mother's shoulders, gently shook her body, and said urgently: "Mom, calm down, calm down, don't do this." ”

The mother gradually fell silent, two lines of tears flowed down her cheeks, she took a deep breath, and said, "You guys go out, I want to be alone for a while." ”

"Don't you really go to see your father? Good no good. ”

My mother looked at me, shook her head and said, "No, I'm not going, I don't want to see that person again." Get out of here. ”

I frowned and said, "Mom......"

The mother snapped, "Get out." ”

In desperation, I had to take Mo Yue's hand and walk out of my mother's bedroom, Mo Yue hugged my arm tightly, and said, "Husband, don't be sad, my aunt must have her thoughts, wait and see." Perhaps, she will change her mind. ”

I sighed and said, "Wait, I can wait, I can wait as long as I want." However, my father could not wait any longer, his body was already extremely weak, and he could die at any time. Although I don't have much affection for my father, he is my father after all, and I have inherited his blood, and when he is dying, I really want to help him fulfill this last wish. ”

At this time, Bai Jian happened to come over from outside, and when he saw us, he hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Lei Xiang, what's wrong, Mom?"

I looked at her and said, "Mom is in the room, Sister Jian'er, you go in and help me persuade Mom, my father is going to die King Leo, I want Mom to see him for the last time, you know about Mom and Father, I just tried my best to talk about it, but Mom just refused to go." ”

Bai Jian glanced at Mo Yue and said, "Okay, I'll go in and try, you go back and rest first, just came back, you're tired too." With that, he turned around and walked towards his mother's room.

Seeing Bai Jian enter his mother's bedroom, Mo Yue said in a low voice: "Husband, how can I feel that this sister Jian'er looks at you a little wrong, is she ...... you?"

I knocked on her head and said, "Silly girl, you still have the kung fu to be jealous, it is impossible for me to be with her, I only have you and Sister Zi Yan in my heart now, except for you, I will never show mercy everywhere." Let's go, I'll take you to my room. I led Mo Yue back to my long-lost room, which should be cleaned every day, much cleaner and neater than when I left, "Yue'er, you can rest here, I still have to find my mother." ”

Mo Yue took my hand and said, "Husband, you better not go, it's not good if you force your aunt to be too tight, what's more, even if you go and say it, it may not be useful." ”

I felt gloomy for a while, and said, "I know that my mother can't listen to anything now, and I want to kneel in front of her door until she agrees, hoping that my sincerity will move my mother and let her go to see my father one last time." Yue'er, you rest, don't persuade me, I've already decided. ”

Mo Yue leaned into my arms and said, "Husband, I don't advise you, your father is also my father, and I deserve to have a share of helping him fulfill his last wish, and I want to go with you to ask my aunt." ”

I was moved in my heart, and kissed her on the cheek and said, "Then how can I be willing, you should rest here, you are tired after so many days of traveling." ”

Mo Yue shook her head and said firmly: "No, I have also decided, I must go." "She is so well-behaved and sensible now, which makes me love her more and more, with her skills, it should be nothing to kneel for two days. Thinking of this, I said, "Okay, let's go together." Go now. ”

Mo Yue and I returned to the door of my mother's bedroom, Bai Jian just came out of it, she saw me, shook her head gloomily, obviously she had no way to convince her mother, I sighed in my heart, since this is the case, I can only kneel and wait, I whispered to Bai Jian: "Sister Jian'er, you ask the people not to enter this courtyard from now on, what does your mother need, please send it over in person." ”

Bai Jian paused for a moment and said, "What are you going to do?"

Mo Yue and I glanced at each other, both knelt on the ground, and I said aloud: "Mom, although my father has done a lot of wrong things, but he is about to die, the lights go out, he doesn't hope you can forgive him, I just hope you can go to see him for the last time, Mom, I beg you, just agree, if you don't agree, Mo Yue and I have been kneeling here waiting for you to agree." ”

My mother could definitely hear me, but there was no movement in her room.

Bai Jian sighed: "Why are you so troubled, Lei Xiang, don't you know your mother's temper? As long as she recognizes something, it is difficult to change, and it is useless for you to do this." ”

I shook my head and said, "Do your best and obey the destiny of God, if my mother still refuses to go in the end, I will do my best, and I am worthy of my father's request to me." After saying that, I closed my eyes, and Mo Yue moved her body to my side, and also closed her eyes, praying quietly for something.

I suddenly felt that there was another person on my left, also clinging to my body, and when I opened my eyes, it was a white sword, and I said in surprise: "Sister Jian'er, what are you doing here? Didn't you say that it is difficult to change what my mother recognizes?"

Bai Jian smiled slightly, and said, "I think you are right, the lights go out when people die, and I also think that my mother should go to see King Leo, so I am here with you to beg her old man." ”

I smiled bitterly and said, "Sister Jian'er, you are weak, in this case, you will not be able to stand it." ”

Bai Jian said: "Sister Yue'er is fine, of course I can too." After saying that, she also closed her eyes and ignored me. I frowned, how could her kung fu be compared to Mo Yue, but since she was so persistent, I had no choice but to let her.

The sky was completely dark, and the chill continued to blow along with the cold wind, and I saw a faint pink light rising from the white sword next to me, although the energy fluctuation was still very weak, but it seemed to have a misty beauty, I was secretly surprised in my heart, the white sword has only been cultivated for less than a year, and there is such an achievement, looking at the way her fighting spirit can be released, there is more than enough self-preservation, no wonder she is willing to kneel here with me and Mo Yue, since she can insist, I don't have to worry anymore. The light in the mother's room was always on, and the mother's figure could occasionally be seen walking back and forth in the room. My mother didn't sleep until early in the morning, when the light in her room was turned off.

I turned my head to Bai Jian and said, "Sister Jian'er, you go in to see your mother, and then get your mother some breakfast, she doesn't seem to have slept all night." ”

Bai Jian woke up from his meditation and nodded, "Okay." She struggled to get up, but because she knelt all night, her blood was a little blocked, and her body tilted and fell towards me. I hurriedly supported her delicate body, and with a little force, I pushed her to stand up, Bai Jian's body is very different from Mo Yue, Mo Yue's body is very full of energy, and Bai Jian is different, her whole body is weak and boneless, and she is soft everywhere, the moment of hugging just now, makes me feel like holding a cotton ball, very comfortable, I can't help but feel a wave in my heart.

Bai Jian stood firmly, bent down and rubbed her knees, peeking at me, just opposite my gaze, her face suddenly flashed a red glow, looking extremely delicate. I hurriedly closed my eyes, collected my mind, and secretly told myself that I must not have any bad intentions, otherwise, how could I be right for my beloved three wives.
