Shen Ning woke up from a daze, the surrounding environment was gloomy and dim, the damp air was filled with the stench of decay, and after figuring out that he was in prison, he closed his eyes and sighed slightly.

Although he lost his mind about the previous events, he remembered them clearly.

In front of the public, the strange aura in his body was seen by the people of the Hundred Sects of the Immortal Family, and many cultivators died because of him.

Even if he destroyed the demons of Hulu Mountain in this battle, the mere fact that he had a strange aura was enough to make everyone wary of him, and it was not an accident that he was now locked up in prison.

I just don't know what kind of disposition I'll receive.

The imperial court doesn't have to worry too much, after all, there are strange things in his body, and Emperor Jing and some high-level officials know about it, but the main question is whether the imperial court can resist the pressure of the Immortal Family.

You must know that in the eyes of the Hundred Sects of the Immortal Family, the threat of the cultists of the Evil God Sect far exceeds that of the demons everywhere!

The cultivators who died because of the cultists of the Cult of Evil Gods are even more like carp crossing the river, and there are countless of them.

Compared with being deeply embarrassed, what distressed Shen Ning the most was Gu Yanwu's death, the man who accompanied him through major disasters, and at the last moment, he used his life to protect him.

Shen Ning recalled the past with Gu Yanwu, his thoughts were very confused, and after a long time, he sat up, his body was still in a faint pain, and he couldn't bear to be uncomfortable, looking at the situation in the prison.

The prison in Shangqiu City was rebuilt by the hundred schools of Xianmen, and many demons captured from all over Henan Province were imprisoned in it, most of them were penetrated through the pipa bone, and the entire prison was covered with special formations and scriptures.

However, he didn't have the idea of escaping, just sat in the prison and began to close his eyes and operate the spirit element, recovering from his injuries and improving his consciousness.

He already knew the horror of the Nether Flame, and now he had another personality in his body, which made him have to slow down the pace of cultivation and use his divine sense to suppress another personality.

If not, the next time he encounters such a situation, he doesn't know how much disaster he will bring.

Time passed minute by minute, the door of the prison slowly opened, and it was Jiang Chuci who walked in, holding a food box in her hand, and walked straight to the prison where Shen Ning was.

Many demons on the mountain all the way saw her figure, their faces were hideous, regardless of the iron chains that penetrated the pipa bones on their bodies, they struggled to rush out, but unfortunately there was the effect of the formation runes, all their actions were in vain, and the roars could not even reach Jiang Chuci's ears because of the existence of the runes.

It looks like a clown.

Coming to the prison where Shen Ning was, Jiang Chuci looked at Shen Ning, who had woken up and was cultivating, and couldn't help but sigh slightly, clenched the iron ring on the prison door, and knocked lightly.

Hearing the sound, Shen Ning opened his eyes slightly, his prison was extremely ordinary, and there were no formations and scriptures, so he could hear Jiang Chuci's voice.

"I've brought you some food, let's eat some."

The first to come to visit him was Jiang Chuci, which made Shen Ning a little surprised, but he didn't refuse his kindness, and took the food one by one through the gap in the prison door, which looked full of color, flavor, and taste, but unfortunately he didn't have much appetite now, and after a simple two-bite meal, he put down the dishes and chopsticks.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Chuci frowned slightly and asked, "What's wrong?" Not to your liking? ”

Shen Ning's face showed a touch of bitterness: "Do you think I can eat like this now?" ”

Jiang Chuci was silent for a while, thought for a moment before asking, "Do you remember what happened in Hulu Mountain a few days ago?" ”

After thinking for a while, Shen Ning nodded and explained: "My state is very mysterious, I feel like I have been stripped out of my body, I know everything, but my behavior is uncontrollable. ”

Most of the cultivators present at the time could see this, Shen Ning was in a state similar to losing his mind.

Jiang Chuci hesitated for a while, but decided to tell Shen Ning about the current situation:

"No matter what, the strange aura in your body is very threatening, and many disciples of the Hundred Sects of the Immortal Family have died because of you, even if you have made a lot of contributions, but now the elders of the sect who participated in the Battle of Hulu Mountain still unanimously decided to want to put you to death to avoid future troubles."

Shen Ning had also thought about such a result before, but now that it has been confirmed by Jiang Chuci, it is inevitable that his heart will become more and more bitter.

"However, this matter was suppressed by the two guardian lords, White Tiger and Vermilion Bird, on the grounds that you are a disciple of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and the result of the matter still needs to be written to the imperial court to get instructions from His Majesty before it can be handled."

"That means I'm still safe, right?"

Jiang Chu nodded noncommittally.

Shen Ning smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The current Great Jin Dynasty relies on the Xianmen Hundred Schools for many things, and now his own existence has caused the dissatisfaction and fear of the Xianmen Hundred Schools, and the imperial court may abandon itself for the sake of the overall situation to a large extent, but he has the secret of dealing with the gods, even His Majesty will feel very tricky, whether it is life or death, it is still difficult to say." ’

After communicating this matter, Shen Ning asked another matter: "Regarding the cultivators who died in the battle of Hulu Mountain, what are the two guardians going to do?" ”

There was nothing to hide about this matter, Jiang Chuci replied truthfully: "The disciples of the hundred schools of the Immortal Sect will naturally receive a generous compensation, and as for the scattered cultivators from all over the country who came to support the funeral ceremony in the past few days, it can be regarded as a consolation. ”

This way of dealing with it is still feasible, Shen Ning thought about it, and finally put forward his request: "I want to participate in the burial ceremony." ”

Not surprisingly, Jiang Chuci shook his head and replied, "You are now guilty, and I can't be the master of this matter." ”

"You can help me pass on this idea."

Faced with Shen Ning's request, Jiang Chu thought about it for a while, but nodded in agreement.

After talking about this, Shen Ning suddenly remembered that Jiang Chuci's current situation should not be easy, even if she is the daughter of the town guard of Henan Province, but acting without permission, her crime is not small, so she asked: "What is the court going to do with you?" ”

"My father was poisoned by the demons of Hulu Mountain, and the only thing that could save him was the unique spirit grass of Hulu Mountain, so it was inevitable that I would enter the mountain." Jiang Chuci smiled, looking very indifferent: "Fortunately, I found the spirit grass, I think it won't be long before my father will be able to get out of the customs, maybe he will be able to break it and stand up, and his cultivation can be improved." As for how to deal with me, as the daughter of the envoy of Henan Province, the ministers of the imperial court will weigh it more or less, and they will probably be escorted back to Shenjing City and guarded for a few years as a punishment. ”

"It's good to have power at home." Shen Ning also smiled when he heard this, and couldn't help but tease.

"I'm fine, but aren't you worried about yourself?"

"There's nothing to worry about, Tarzan collapsed in front of me, and I just took it calmly."

Shen Ning's indifferent attitude made Jiang Chuci slightly stunned, but immediately a sense of admiration rose, and he simply packed up the food box and prepared to leave.

It was also at this time that Shen Ning stopped her and asked, "By the way, why did you come to see me?" ”

In Shen Ning's thoughts, he was very unkind to Jiang Chuci in Hulu Mountain, and the other party did not kill him, but instead sent food, which was really a bit unexpected.

"Anyway, you saved my life, although you are a nasty person."

Jiang Chuci turned his back to Shen Ning, and after finishing speaking, he left without looking back.

Shen Ning touched his nose, but he didn't care much about this matter.

.................

.................

On the night of the end of August in Henan Road, the cool breeze is blowing, the cold moonlight is swaying on the streets, the people of Shangqiu City have been transferred away before the war, and now most of the people living in Shangqiu City are cultivators who have come to crusade against the demons of Hulu Mountain, and now most of them have fallen asleep during this time period, and the dark streets can occasionally hear the sound of the husband beating the watch, adding a bit of fireworks to the quiet night.

The only one with the lights still on is the Taishou Mansion in Shangqiu City.

The white tiger lit an oil lamp and was still reviewing the documents from all over Henan Province.

Although the matter of the demons in Hulu Mountain has come to an end, it does not mean that there are no hidden dangers in other places in Henan Province, just take advantage of the aftermath of the victory in Hulu Mountain, and take the opportunity to sweep away the large and small demons in Henan Province, so that the current situation in Dajin can be greatly alleviated.

After processing the official document, Bai Hu took out the envelope that had not yet been written, and after a little thought, he recorded what happened in Henan Province during this period of time, and recorded it in detail.

After writing most of the things, Bai Hu stopped writing, he was thinking about Shen Ning's affairs.

In fact, for him, there is nothing tricky about this matter, just record it truthfully and report it to the imperial court.

It's just that a few of the problems revealed in it made him have to think about it.

The most important thing is Qin Wuyang's joy after seeing the strangeness shown by Shen Ning, which means that Shen Ning is very likely to hide secrets that the Great Jin Dynasty does not know, which is why he resisted the pressure of the Immortal Family and temporarily kept Shen Ning.

As for Shen Ning's commander and the identity of the disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, these are of course also one of the major factors.

Out of many considerations, Bai Hu still decided to record the matter, as well as the pressure he is currently under, 1510, and how to deal with Shen Ning's matter has to be handed over to the princes and ministers in the court.

After writing this, there was a knock at the door, and the white tiger said lightly: "Come in." ”

It was none other than Suzaku, one of the guardians of the Quartet.

"Why hasn't the kitten slept so late?" Suzaku lay lazily on the bed in the study, the firelight reflected her delicate face, ruddy and full lips, looking particularly seductive.

Baihu rubbed his temples that were a little painful, and said coldly: "The town guard makes the adults retreat and heal, you ignore the mundane things, if I am the shopkeeper again, what will Henan Dao do?" ”

Hearing Bai Hu's slightly responsible words, Suzaku smiled and said indifferently: "What are you going to do about that person named Shen Ning?" ”

"What else can I do? Just report it truthfully to Your Majesty. ”

With a smile in the corner of his eyes, Suzaku said lightly: "I'm afraid that Your Majesty has known about this matter for a long time, but it's just hiding it from us and the people of the world." ”

Bai Hu's brows furrowed slightly: "How do you say this?" ”

"Don't forget, the team that supports Shangqiu City is led by him." Suzaku said with a smile: "Moreover, I also heard that the matter of the Qin Palace, he has always been secretly plotting, plus His Majesty often recruits him into the palace, such a person who can be involved in core affairs, how could His Majesty not investigate him?" ”

With that, Suzaku handed an envelope to White Tiger.

Unwrapping the envelope, Bai Hu read it briefly, and roughly wrote some measures about how the imperial court would deal with the Xishu Dao famine, but at the end, Bai Hu saw that the person who mentioned this measure was Shen Ning, who was now in prison!

"Your Majesty, I attach great importance to him!" Bai Hu sighed slightly: "It seems that his trip to Henan Road is largely due to His Majesty's desire to pave the way for him to enter the power center of the imperial court." ”

"Kittens are still very smart!" Suzaku glanced at the white tiger with a smile and praised it.

The White Tiger ignored him.

The Fan family has inherited the position of the White Tiger for generations, although they are generally only responsible for the handling of demon affairs in various places, but they still have basic political literacy, so they can quickly detect the problem.

It stands to reason that many of the people in the team who supported Shangqiu City surpassed Shen Ning in terms of qualifications and strength, but he led the team exceptionally, and after he left, Emperor Jing immediately proposed some of the measures he had written in the court and began to implement them.

It is not difficult to guess that after Shen Ning has dealt with many affairs in Henan Province, it must be Emperor Jing's reuse that awaits him when he returns to Shenjing City. After getting these messages, Bai Hu sighed slightly and said lightly, "So what do you want me to do?" ”

"I have no other consciousness, but I am reminding you that there must be no accidents in this person until His Majesty's will comes."

Bai Hu frowned, Shen Ning's current situation was not optimistic.

Not only does he have a strange aura on his body, but he also mistakenly killed too many disciples of the hundred schools of Henan Dao Xianmen in Hulu Mountain, if he can't give an explanation to the Xianmen who participated in this battle in Henan Province as soon as possible, then the imperial court is likely to deviate from them, which is inconsistent with the national policy of the Great Jin Dynasty.

However, he had already decided to keep Shen Ning temporarily, so he didn't refute Suzaku's words, but just asked about another thing:

"How is that throne demon in Hulu Mountain doing now?"

Suzaku Xu was a little tired, yawned, and replied: "I arranged a separate cell for her, which was arranged by many sect elders in the formation, plus the pipa bone was pierced, there is no problem in thinking, and after many things in Henan Province are over, I personally escorted her back to the Jokhang Temple in Shenjing City to suppress it, speaking of which, didn't there be news that the Jokhang Temple was destroyed by the cultists?" I don't know if it's rebuilt. ”

Although Suzaku has an idle temperament, Baihu is still very relieved to have him to deal with the detention of Fluorescence.

"By the way, what are you going to do about the Strange Mountain People?" Suzaku asked.

In the Hulu Mountain incident, due to the intervention of the Weishan people, the situation almost collapsed for a while, if it wasn't for the strong strength shown by Shen Ning, which shocked this group of people, I am afraid that the current Henan Dao has fallen into the control of demons.

The people of the Great Jin Dynasty are fierce, and they will definitely not swallow their anger like this and continue to let the people of the mountains do evil.

"They shouldn't have left Henan Province by now, and I'm going to send people to search around." Talking about the treacherous mountains, the white tiger's eyes were cold: "This time, no matter what, let them pay the price." ”

Suzaku nodded, she didn't have to say anything more when Baihu was arranging this matter, and after thinking about it a little, she still didn't tell Baihu about the demon mist, after all, he had always regarded the demon mist as the enemy who killed his father, and now that the other party is dead, for Baihu, it can be regarded as a heavy burden, and there is no need to let him spend his mind on this.

The two of them discussed many things, finalized some details, and Suzaku left.

................

................

Early the next morning.

Jiang Chuci told Suzaku of Shen Ning's request early.

As for why she didn't go to Bai Hu, who was in charge of Shangqiu City, she said that this matter was mainly because she disobeyed the military order and went deep into Hulu Mountain before, which inevitably left a bad impression in Bai Hu's heart.

Although it is said that the punishment has come down, and after the matter in Henan Province is over, she will go to Shenjing City, but it is better to avoid it now.

"You're saying he wants to attend the memorial service?" In the courtyard of the Taishou Mansion, Suzaku was lying on a rockery, and the corner of his eyes looked at the heroic Jiang Chuci next to him.

Jiang Chuci nodded.

"Anyway, he had a lot of disciples of the Immortal Family Hundred Sects in Hulu Mountain before, and they died because of him." Suzaku said lightly: "If he appears at the memorial ceremony, do you think it is appropriate?" ”

Jiang Chuci was stunned, she was just entrusted by Shen Ning but she didn't think deeply about these issues.

"Forget it, forget it." Suzaku smiled and said, "I'll go see him in person." ”

As he spoke, Suzaku jumped down from the rockery, with a faint fragrance, and in the blink of an eye, he was dozens of steps away from Jiang Chuci.

"Are you going along?"

Suzaku asked, tilting his head.

Jiang Chuci hesitated and replied, "I'm not going, I want to go to my father's side to have a look." ”

"It's fine."

Speaking of which, Jiang Chu didn't need to go over.

Outside the prison in Shangqiu City, there were more than a dozen stars of the Tsing Yi Division in charge of guarding, and when they saw that it was Suzaku coming, they still routinely checked it, and then they were ready to let Suzaku in.

The heavy door slowly opened, a ray of sunlight shone into the dimly lit room, the smell of discomfort wafted in the air, Suzaku frowned slightly, and walked straight towards the prison where Shen Ning was.

Ever since Jiang Chu left, he had been recovering from his injuries and improving his divine sense, and he slowly opened his eyes when Suzaku arrived.

"Listening to Jiang Chuci, do you want to participate in the memorial ceremony?"

Suzaku asked straight to the point.

Shen Ning was noncommittal.

"You're very smart, you don't know what the consequences will be if you participate in the memorial ceremony."

Of course, Shen Ning knew what Suzaku meant, but he still replied: "They died because of me, I should appear at the memorial ceremony, this is a understandable thing, if I evade this matter, then even if it is a future cultivation, I am afraid that it will wear out the Dao heart." ”

Suzaku's eyes stared at Shen Ning, looking the young man in front of him up and down, as if he wanted to see him through, and only replied after a long time: "The time of the memorial ceremony is tomorrow morning, you can come and participate." ”

"Thank you, Adult." Shen Ning got up and respectfully saluted Suzaku.

After Suzaku left, Shen Ning continued to cultivate, and it was at this time that a phantom slowly appeared behind him.

In terms of appearance, it is similar to Shen Ning's figure, but he can't see his face clearly, and his whole body reveals a feeling of discomfort, and the entire prison seems to have become darker and more gloomy because of his appearance.

This phantom came behind Shen Ning, bent down, and approached Shen Ning's ear, the voice seemed to be questioning and comforting, with an extremely bewitching ability: "Do you want to take advantage of the memorial ceremony to escape from here?" Can I help you? ”

Because of the appearance of this phantom, Shen Ning's brows furrowed slightly, and cold sweat seeped out of his forehead, and he didn't bother with him.

"Why are you working so hard for Da Jin, you know very well that as long as the two of us join forces, you will soon be able to reach the top in this small world, and then you will be fearless even in the face of the gods, what you want to do, isn't it up to you to decide?"

The phantom continued to bewitch Shen Ning, but the latter never paid attention to him, perhaps feeling a little bored and gradually disappeared into prison.

Shen Ning slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity.

His current cultivation has reached the peak of the Xuan Realm, and it is only a matter of a thought to break through to the Heavenly Xuan Realm, and it is only in order to suppress the second personality in his body, so he has not made a breakthrough.

The clock ticks by.

I don't know how long it took for Shen Ning to hear the sound of the cell door opening again.

Those who walked in were the disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, Li Hongye and Peony, and a few others, after Shen Ning woke up before, they came in to visit, and now they just brought Shen Ning to participate in the memorial ceremony.

With Suzaku's password, the Tsing Yi Division personnel in charge of guarding the prison opened the cell, but when Shen Ning left, he stopped him:

"Wait a minute, you can't go out like this."

As he spoke, the Tsing Yi Division took out two golden leaves from his arms.

Li Hongye naturally recognized this, his brows furrowed slightly, those two golden leaves were a basic magic weapon widely used by the Tsing Yi Division, which had the effect of restricting the operation of the muscles and veins in the cultivator's body, and had a lot of harm to the cultivator himself.

But he didn't say anything, but Peony said sharply: "What do you mean? ”

The personnel of the Tsing Yi Division had a cold face, glanced at the peony, and said coldly: "He is now a repeat offender of the Tsing Yi Division, and I am just doing a routine." ”

Peony was angry when she heard this, and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Shen Ning:

"It's okay, senior sister."

"Little junior brother, in the battle of Hulu Mountain, if you don't have you, maybe everyone will die somewhere!" Peony was dissatisfied: "It's okay to be locked up in prison, why do they treat you like this." ”

Peony's words can be said to be very realistic, but the more realistic thing is that Shen Ning does have a great threat.

Therefore, the personnel of the Tsing Yi Division did not stop the movements of his hands because of the words of Peony, the two golden leaves merged into Shen Ning's body, and felt the stinging pain coming from all over his body, Shen Ning frowned slightly, but he still resisted the discomfort of his body, and looked at everyone with a smile: "Let's go." ”

Everyone left the prison, and the memorial ceremony was held on the outskirts of Shangqiu City, and all the cultivators who survived the Battle of Hulu Mountain came to this suburb, among which there were many people of Shangqiu City who heard the news and rushed back, and they wanted to send these martyrs who protected them on their last journey.

The scene is solemn, and the relics contained in sandalwood boxes are neatly arranged on a high platform made of bluestone bricks.

The cultivators and the people stood in two columns, and the scene of thousands of people was silent, and the white tiger came out of the crowd, and in front of him was a huge incense burner made of bronze tripods.

According to the custom, the white tiger began to tell the eulogy, and the words were sincere and sincere, causing many people and practitioners to burst into tears.

If it weren't for these cultivators, Henan Dao would be the world of demons now, and when the time comes, there will be corpses everywhere, what is the difference between it and purgatory on earth?

When the eulogy was finished, the crowd began to offer incense to the deceased.

With the White Tiger presiding, the proceeds were orderly.

However, when Shen Ning's figure appeared on this memorial ceremony, the scene became turbulent.

"Who is this?"

"Isn't he a cultist?"

"How did he end up here?"

"Shouldn't he be in prison?"

"My brother was buried in the fire because of him!"

For a while, all kinds of discussions sounded in Shen Ning's ears, he ignored these, took the long incense from the peony's hand and walked slowly towards the bronze tripod.

The elders of the major sects of the hundred schools of Henan Dao Xianmen saw Shen Ning appear here, and their complexions changed, as if there were turbulent waves surging in the dark!

Suzaku stood aside, looking at all this with interest, she wanted to know what Shen Ning's plan was for insisting on appearing on such an occasion.

As for the white tiger next to the bronze tripod, when he saw Shen Ning appear here, his brows furrowed slightly, but he didn't say anything.

There seems to be a wonderful tacit understanding between the people.

However, this tacit understanding was interrupted in a shout:

"Cultist of the Evil God, what qualifications do you have to offer incense to our dead soldiers of the Great Jin?"

With this loud shout, the scene was like a powder keg that had been ignited, and it suddenly exploded, not only the curses of the people, but also the disdainful and suspicious gazes of the monks!

Under such circumstances, Shen Ning walked towards the bronze tripod step by step, he wanted to put a stick of incense on these dead cultivators, this was the only thing he could do.

However, the others were not willing to do this, in their eyes, Shen Ning deserved to die as a cultist of the Evil God Sect, and he was not qualified to appear on such an occasion at all, and immediately someone shot at Shen Ning, and a strong spirit yuan was like a fierce beast, attacking Shen Ning with teeth and claws!

On such an occasion where White Tiger and Vermilion Bird were there, Li Hongye and the others didn't expect that someone would make a move on Shen Ning, and their faces changed drastically, and it was too late to organize it.

I saw that I didn't know who hit the Ling Yuan and attacked Shen Ning directly!

"Peng" sounded.

That Lingyuan hit him, Rao is Shen Ning's body is so strong, in the case of Lingyuan being blocked, he took this blow hard, and his internal organs were as if they were broken, the pain was unbearable, and he immediately fell to the ground.

Peony was about to go to Shen Ning's side to see how he was doing, but she didn't expect to be stopped by Li Hongye!

"What are you stopping me for?" Peony looked at Li Hongye, and the anger in her eyes was hard to dissipate.

Li Hongye was extremely calm at this time, she not only stopped Peony's actions, but also used the sound transmission secret technique to make other Heavenly Master Mansion disciples not act without permission.

"Do you think that after you go up, they won't make a move on the little junior brother?" Li Hongye analyzed the situation that appeared, and also thought of Shen Ning's intentions: "As disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, we must remain silent at this time, otherwise we will be enemies of all the immortal sects in Henan Province and the hundred immortal sects in the world, do you understand?" ”

Peony just saw that Shen Ning was attacked, and she was angry for a while, so she lost her sense of proportion, and now that she was stopped, she immediately understood Li Hongye's intentions, but she still said anxiously:

"But what about the little junior brother? Now that his Lingyuan is blocked, these people are killing again, how can he bear it? ”

Saying that, Peony actually cried with a hint of crying: "Senior Brother Qi is gone, I can't watch the little junior brother have an accident anymore." ”

Li Hongye looked at Peony like this, and didn't know how to comfort her for a while, but said slowly: "This is the choice of the little junior brother, we have no choice." ”

Peony, who calmed down, held back the grief in her heart, and just looked around at everyone present, as if warning them!

It's a pity that under the pain of losing their loved ones and friends, these people don't care about the threat of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, not only are their words cold, but there are also many cultivators who stand in front of Shen Ning, their expressions are cold, just like looking at the great enmity of life and death.

"We don't want to kill people in front of the spirit, and if we leave now, we can spare your dog's life, otherwise we won't blame me for being ruthless."

Suzaku and White Tiger, who were watching all this from the sidelines, did not stop it, because if they wanted Shen Ning to survive the subsequent trial, this was the best way to let these immortal sects of Henan Province vent their anger in their hearts in advance.

Unless it involves Shen Ning's life and death, they will not make a move.

Shen Ning's eyes were blurred by blood, and he struggled to get up with difficulty, and staggered towards the bronze tripod.

Seeing that he was still going to pay tribute, these cultivators did not hesitate and shot towards Shen Ning again.

Two powerful forces hit Shen Ning's body, and he flew out directly.

Although they were not aware of the situation, they could see that the person in front of them should be a sinful person, and as long as it was the person who was spurned by the practitioners, it was the person they spurned.

After this blow, Shen Ning coughed up a mouthful of blood violently, and it seemed that the strange voice sounded in his ears again.

"Look, this is the person you're desperately trying to protect."

"How much did you pay for this, for this Gu Yanwu died in Hulu Mountain, who of them sympathized with the grief in your heart, and who of them took pity on you?"

"Merge with me, let me be the main body, and let these ignorant people see that with your ability, you are the most powerful existence in this heaven and earth."

"Shut up!" Shen Ning suddenly shouted loudly.

This frightened the people and didn't dare to say anything, they didn't know that Shen Ning was just himself.

Thinking of Gu Yanwu, two lines of tears slipped down Shen Ning's face, that was the first friend he had ever met, how many life and death crises he had accompanied him through, if he could, he would rather die by himself, the grief in his heart came like a tide, and the netherworld fire in his body became restless!

A golden glow emanated from his chest, a sign that Ling Yuan had broken through the restraints again.

Shen Ning raised his eyes, looked at the few people in front of him who intercepted him, and said sharply: "Get out of the way!" ”

These people knew that Shen Ning's whole body was restricted by magic weapons, and of course they would not retreat, and immediately some people continued to attack Shen Ning.

Just as they were attacking, just when the disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion were hesitating to make a move, a loud shout came from the sky: "Stop!" ”

At the same time, a golden wall appeared in front of Shen Ning, blocking the attacks of those people, and everyone looked up and saw a middle-aged man in a white fine robe, with a face on his face, walking down from the air step by step.

Behind him was Jiang Chuci, this person was none other than the town guard of Henan Province - Jiang Wumian!

When this person appeared, everyone present, including the people, knelt down and bowed respectfully and said, "I have seen the town guard." ”

Jiang Wumian was quite prestigious in Henan Province, and after he appeared, those who originally wanted to make a move on Shen Ning immediately spoke: "Lord Guardian, this person is a cultist of the Evil God Sect, many people died in the Battle of Hulu Mountain because of him, and his crime should be punished!" ”

Jiang Wumian glanced at these people a few times, and said indifferently: "I have already heard about him, as for how to deal with the affairs that should be the imperial court, you took action without permission, do you want to rebel?" ”

"I ......"

Jiang Wumian looked at the many cultivators, with an extremely heavy sense of coercion in his eyes: "Why, it's not easy for me to speak in Henan Dao?" ”

At this point, the cultivators who gathered around them retreated angrily.

Seeing this, Jiang Wumian's voice softened a little: "He is guilty, but he also has the credit of Henan Dao, as for how to deal with him, he must wait for the order of the imperial court, if anyone dares to do something more than his duty, he will blame the town guard for being ruthless!" ”

Jiang Wumian's words were in axiom, and no one could refute them.

Shen Ning gasped for breath, and slowly eased up from the previous attack, but the pain in his body and the large amount of blood loss made him feel dizzy, and he barely kept his consciousness and said, "Thank you, Lord Guard." ”

Jiang Wumian turned around, looked at Shen Ning with a cold face, didn't say anything, and made way for him.

Seeing this, Shen Ning staggered towards the bronze tripod, with a lot of thoughts in his mind, but there was more guilt and sadness for Gu Yanwu.

He was not far from the bronze tripod, but every step seemed to exhaust his strength, and it was very difficult to walk.

When the disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion saw this scene, they couldn't help but redden, they didn't know why there was a strange aura in the little junior brother's body, but they knew that this little junior brother who had grown up watching it since he was a child would definitely not be able to surrender to the deceitful gods, and behind all this, there must be other factors.

And now, they can only watch the little junior brother suffer a catastrophe.

Shen Ning walked very slowly, and everyone's eyes were focused on him, with anger, disgust, unwillingness, and of course, sympathy and worry.

I don't know how long he walked, Shen Ning's front was already blurry, he struggled to insert the long incense in his hand into the bronze tripod, the whole person seemed to have lost his life, and he knelt on the ground weakly, muttering in his mouth: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry for your ......"

No one could hear what Shen Ning said, only to see this cultist of the Evil God Sect faint in place, and in the end, it was the disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion who took him down.

Shen Ning's consciousness fell into a blur, and he once again came to the gray world.

This place seemed to be darker than before, Shen Ning walked aimlessly among the flowers on the other side, smelling the faint fragrance of flowers, for some reason, the originally painful heart seemed to be soothed, and gradually calmed down.

Qingyue, who was sitting on a dead tree and playing the jade flute, didn't seem to notice Shen Ning's arrival, and only listened to the melodious sound of the flute echoing in this world, as if she was washing away the filth that existed in the world.

Probably due to the exhaustion of his body and mind, Shen Ning fell among the flowers on the other side, and he didn't know what he was thinking, and his eyes were empty.

He hated himself, hated that he couldn't control this power, hated that he had killed so many people out of control.

I don't know how long it took, but Yu Xiao's voice finally stopped.

After thinking about it for a long time, Shen Ning's eyes finally had a hint of brilliance. He suddenly asked, "Am I wrong?" ”

Although Qingyue had forgotten too many things in the long river of time, and even had no human emotions, she still heard the grief in Shen Ning's heart, and she replied:

"There are many things that have no answers, if you feel that what you are doing is right, then you can go down this path, if you doubt yourself, then it is useless for others to say anything."

Yes, Shen Ning fell into deep doubt.

He suspected that his cultivation of the strange aura was a mistake.

He also hated that he couldn't fully grasp this power.

"So, what should I do?"

Qing Yue jumped down from the branch of the dead tree, walked to Shen Ning's side, and said softly, "Only you can save you." ”
