Chapter 968: The Truth That Is Gradually Revealed
A demon clan elder shouted in shock, "What's going on?"
No one answered his question and could not answer it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoThe officials of the Demon Clan's Imperial Court are rushing over there, and there are already priests of the Demon Clan in that mountain, and I believe it won't take long to know the exact answer.
The shepherd had already noticed the vision of the mountain, and had vaguely guessed something.
The young man in the hat was deep at the bottom of the mountain.
Only then did she know that she still underestimated the black robe.
- Although it was impossible to determine the specific situation, it was obvious that the young man and even the entire demon clan might have benefited greatly from this Heavenly Tree Wildfire Purge.
As she pondered whether to go to the mountain and take a look for herself, the vision in the distance faded.
The mist emitted by the Celestial Tree quickly faded, and the rumbling sound from the depths of the earth gradually became less and less until it was finally no longer audible.
The Red River gradually returned to calm, and neither the old city nor the demon clan bigwigs around the high platform noticed anything unusual.
But at this time, the two River Clan powerhouses who were still absorbing the Heavenly Tree Wildfire underground were greatly affected.
Suddenly, he found that the wildfire had become extremely violent, and a strong man of the River Clan was afraid and wanted to avoid it, but as a result, he angered the ancestral spirit of the Demon Clan, and he was directly shocked and fainted. Even if he was able to save his life afterwards, his meridians had been broken, his sea awareness was broken, and he could no longer practice, so he could only become a wasted person.
In addition, the performance of the River Clan powerhouse named Xia Luo was much better, worthy of being a well-known person who had gone to Kyoto to practice and had successfully gathered stars twenty years ago, in the face of the sudden strangeness of the wildfire and the rumbling and shaking of the ground, his state of mind was unwavering, and he persevered silently and steadily to the end.
By this time, four of the five people who had participated in the Heavenly Tree Wildfire Trial had already come out.
The patriarch of the Xiang clan glanced at Mrs. Mu's side face, unable to see what she was thinking at this time, and felt a little uneasy in his heart.
It didn't take long for the young man, surrounded by priests and officials, to return to the high platform among the mountains on the shore.
His clothes were full of burnt cuts, and he could even faintly smell burnt paste, and the hat that always covered his face was also burned out of a few large gaps, and the bamboo branches were stabbing everywhere outside, looking very embarrassed, like a real beggar by the roadside.
Countless eyes fell on the young man, with peeping, curiosity, and vigilance.
Why the Heavenly Tree he went to make such a big movement was something that everyone wanted to know. And everyone wants to know what this young man with a mysterious identity looks like. The hat, which was burned to pieces by the flames of heaven, provided a very precious opportunity.
His eyebrows and eyes could not be seen through the gap in his hat, but his face could be seen to be very white, white as jade, and as white as snow.
Looking at the dazzling white, many demon clan bigwigs remembered a name that had gradually been forgotten by the mainland-Tianhai Shengxue.
Tianhai Shengxue is also very famous in the demon clan, in addition to his repeated military exploits in the Blue Pass and the Snow Pass, but also because of his most famous skin Shengxue.
The demon clan has a rough temperament and does not pay attention to details, but it is fair and delicate.
Some people who have seen Tianhai Shengxue feel that the whiteness of the two is not the same.
The young man's face seemed to be snow about to melt, as if it was transparent, and there was an extremely eerie attraction.
The patriarch of the Xiang clan was also looking at the young man, and some vigilance gradually appeared in his deep and calm eyes.
He knew the young man's identity, so he couldn't understand what was happening today.
Since it is a demon race, even if it is a child of the royal family, how can it withstand the coercion of the ancestral spirit and the power of the wildfire? Could it be that the other party really willingly dedicated the spiritual world to the ancestral spirit and turned his body and bloodline into the White Emperor's lineage?
No, the patriarch of the Xiang clan definitely did not believe that the other party would do this.
Whether it is Xiaode or Xuanyuan Po, they have passed the test of the ancestral spirit in other ways, and this person should also have other methods.
The patriarch of the Shi clan was also looking at the young man, and he didn't know if he saw something, and his face gradually became solemn.
Under the eyes of countless pairs, the young man remained calm.
The atmosphere around the platform became very oppressive and tense.
But neither Mrs. Mu nor the patriarch of the Xiang clan, who was the Great Elder, spoke, so no one dared to jump out and question anything at this time.
The process of the Election Ceremony continued, although it was already a little unsavory.
The last item is very simple, that is, the choice of people that was mentioned yesterday before the Imperial City.
The four who had been tempered by the wildfire fought in two pairs, and then the victor fought again.
Xuanyuan Po's opponent is the River Clan powerhouse named Xia Luo.
Tak's opponent is the mysterious young man in the hat.
After seeing this result, a suppressed exclamation sounded around the high platform.
The most eye-catching was of course the second one.
Xiao De looked at the tattered hat that the young man was wearing, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he wanted to say something.
The patriarch of the Shi clan changed his expression again, and ordered the clansmen to step forward and take Xiao De away, without giving him a chance to speak.
The River Clan patriarch took Charlotte away.
The Bear Clan patriarch took Xuanyuan Po away.
The movements of several patriarchs were very fast, so fast that the imperial ministers and those elders did not react.
They didn't even salute the Lady Mu and the Xiang Patriarch before leaving.
The atmosphere of oppressive tension did not disappear, but became stronger and stronger.
......
......
On the top floor of the ferry back to White Emperor City, the conversation between Xiao De and the patriarch of the Shi clan did not go too smoothly.
Because the patriarch of the Shi clan asked him to renounce the Chosen One.
Even the most uninformed poor people in the lower city knew that Xiaode could not accept it.
The patriarch of the Shi clan stared into his eyes and said, "You are worried that the imperial throne will fall into the hands of Daxizhou, and now that it is no longer needed, why do you still insist on it?"
Xiao De said: "I know that the clan does not want me to inherit the bloodline of the White Emperor, but you should be able to see that I have other methods. ā
"So what, if Your Majesty or the Empress really want to make you heir, they have no other means?"
The patriarch of the Shi clan said with emotion: "But these are not important, if you can really inherit the throne, even if you change the bloodline, I will still support you." ā
Xiao De's voice was slightly cold, "Then why are you doing this today?"
"Because it's no longer possible. ā
The patriarch of the Shi clan was silent for a moment and then said, "We didn't expect that Your Majesty and Niangniang had already chosen a successor. ā
Xiao De was also silent for a while, and said, "You mean that guy?"
The patriarch said, "I think you should have guessed something. ā
Xiaode said: "No matter who that young man is, it will not affect me. ā
The patriarch of the Shi clan said in a deep voice: "This matter is too important for the demon clan, the queen mother will not allow it to be destroyed by you, and Your Majesty will not allow it." ā
Xiao De said: "Who can be sure that this is what Your Majesty means?"
The patriarch of the Shi clan said: "The old minister personally went to the mountains the night before yesterday. ā
Xiao De shouted in a deep voice: "Even if Your Majesty thinks so, it is wrong!"
