Hearing this, Cao Yuan's mood gradually stabilized, he took a deep breath and released the palm on the table.

Zuo Qing closed his eyes helplessly and continued: "The relationship between you and An Qingyu is clear to everyone...... It is precisely because of this that I proposed to the gods of Great Xia that the [Nightfall] team should avoid suspicion in this matter.

After all, if you really do something that leads to the failure of the handling of An Qingyu and the return of the [Key to the Gate], it will not only be Great Xia, but the entire earth will be devastated...... When the time comes, Nightfall will become a sinner for the whole world.

But you're supposed to be heroes, aren't you? ”

Lin Qiye looked at Zuo Qing's gaze, and his heart trembled slightly.

Zuo Qing's eyes when he looked at them contained many complex emotions, expectation, relief, helplessness, and guilt...... This kind of gaze has also been seen by Lin Qiye in the eyes of Ye Fan in the past.

The difference is that Ye Fan only saw part of the rise of [Night] back then, while Zuo Qing watched them go from nothing to today.

No one knows better than Zuo Qing how much [Nightfall] has contributed to Great Xia and how many miracles it has created...... He was like Nightfall's father, witnessing their growth, and because of this, he didn't want to see this team end up at the worst.

"So, don't go to Heaven, don't do something stupid...... That's an order. Zuo Qing's tone was extremely firm.

He took out a thick document from the drawer and placed it in front of Lin Qiye and Cao Yuan, and his voice was a little softer,

"An Qingyu left the team, there are only two of you in the [Nightfall] team for the time being, but it shouldn't be long before Jialan can recover, and then you will be three people, and [Nightfall] will not be forcibly disbanded because of the small number of people.

This is a roster of all the active Night's Watchmen, so you can take a look at them and select some of the elite to join you to make up for the lack of numbers. ”

Lin Qiye looked at the roster of night watchmen in front of him silently, and did not stretch out his hand.

I don't know how long it took, he took a deep breath and slowly pushed the roster back in front of Zuo Qing,

"I'm sorry, Commander Zuo...... I have no plans to add new members. ”

When the words fell, Lin Qiye didn't say more, and turned around and walked directly towards the door of the commander-in-chief's office, Cao Yuan didn't even glance at the roster, and followed calmly.

Bang——!

As the two crimson figures walked away, the door to the office closed with a muffled sound,

In the empty room, Zuo Qing closed his eyes helplessly, leaned back on the chair, and sighed......

……

Heaven.

"The Gate of Truth...... ......"

After listening to Lingbao Tianzun's answer, a bitterness appeared in An Qingyu's eyes, "So, as long as I live, I will speed up the recovery of the Gate of Truth, and eventually become the [Key to the Gate]?" ”

Lingbao Tianzun nodded silently.

"But there's one thing I still don't know." An Qingyu paused for a moment, "If the Gate of Truth is revived because of me, will I become the [Key of the Gate], or will the [Key of the Gate] be reborn through my body?" ”

"Neither." Lingbao Tianzun shook his head, "The [Key to the Gate] is the embodiment of truth, he is a part of the truth, and he is also the keeper of the gate of truth...... You may not understand this, do you know the machine spirit? ”

"Is that the spirituality that the artifact contains?"

"That's right, the [Key to the Gate] is, in a sense, the instrument spirit of the Gate of Truth, so he himself will not die, because the truth will never be erased, and the only way to destroy him is to destroy the Gate of Truth itself, so that the [Key to the Gate] will fall into a deep sleep that is infinitely close to death, which is what the ancestral gods did back then.

However, your existence is constantly allowing the Gate of Truth to repair itself, and the moment it is completely restored, the Key to the Door will naturally wake up...... Strictly speaking, you are different individuals, but your destinies are intimately linked, like artifacts and artifacts.

Can you understand that? ”

An Qingyu nodded, "I understand." ”

"That'...... What are you going to do? Jiang Er's lips pursed slightly.

Lingbao Tianzun looked at An Qingyu in a complicated manner, and after being silent for a long time, he slowly spoke: "The simplest and most direct way is to kill you and destroy your soul, so that the Gate of Truth will no longer be able to recover......

Hearing this, Jiang Er's eyes froze, and his face suddenly turned pale.

An Qingyu just nodded calmly, "This is indeed the safest and most cost-effective, as long as you kill me, you can prevent the revival of a three-pillar god." ”

His expression did not change in the slightest, as if he was not talking about his own death, but about a rigorous scientific argument.

"But, I don't want to." Lingbao Tianzun said slowly, "To stop the revival of the Gate of Truth, the key is to make it stop deconstructing the world, you are like the eyes of the Gate of Truth, as long as you completely peel off this world, it will naturally not be able to continue to recover." ”

"Strip the world...... How to do this? ”

"Seal you."

A faint halo appeared around Lingbao Tianzun's body, intertwined into countless complicated dao patterns, and displayed in front of An Qingyu's body, "Gather the power of my Great Xia gods, put 99,999 seals on you, seal every inch of your skin and soul, and then sink you into the Heavenly Court Spirit Abyss, you can completely isolate you from this world......

In this way, both your life will be saved and the recovery of the Key to the Door will be prevented. ”

An Qingyu was stunned for a long time, and smiled helplessly, "Sounds like some kind of punishment...... Is this to make me suffer eternal loneliness? ”

"No, the seal will seal your mind and perception, you will not feel any time passing, no matter how long you have been sunk into the abyss, it will only be a time of dozing for you, and you will not feel any emotions including loneliness."

Lingbao Tianzun paused, "An Qingyu, don't worry, as long as Poor Dao is still alive, he will definitely continue to look for a way to completely exterminate the [Key to the Gate]. Someday, you'll see the light of day again...... But it may take a long time, maybe a hundred, a millennium, or even a ...... Years. ”

An Qingyu stared at Lingbao Tianzun for a moment, and smiled slightly, "I believe in you, whether you are Baili Chubby or Lingbao Tianzun, I believe you...... But, I have one more question. ”

An Qingyu stretched out his hand and pointed at Jiang Er beside him,

"If I'm sealed, what about her?"
