Chapter 142: The Shadow Emperor
Caiyi City, an ordinary square house, lined with bones that had been lightly processed, which were dead disciples of the Wu'en Sect, Meng Changfeng shook off the white cloth and covered them one by one (shēn).
"Elder Chen has arrived. Chu Zhong hurriedly walked behind Meng Changfeng and said in a low voice.
"You guys go out, I'm going to talk to Elder Chen alone. Meng Changfeng slowly smoothed out the hair of a disciple (xiōng) whose abdomen had been torn open by a blood golem, without looking back.
"We will be on guard outside, senior brother, if you have something, call us. Chu Zhong glanced at Gao Hong and Liu Yizhi, and withdrew from the courtyard lightly.
There were a few red lanterns hanging in the courtyard, and a few candles were shaking the faint firelight, and in the huge space, only these faint halos shrouded Meng Changfeng and Chen Sheng, and the ground was covered with corpses covered with white cloths.
"Uncle Shi, should you tell me something?" Meng Changfeng unloaded his long sword and sat in front of the square table, and the god (qíng) had no joy or sorrow.
"To tell you the truth, didn't you doubt me for a long time?" Chen Sheng smiled, and the god (qíng) was quite relaxed.
"I can't doubt it, but I know you must have done something behind my back that I didn't know (qíng). I've already seen the base you built, and those blood golems, and I'll never forget them for the rest of my life. But I don't want to talk to you there, you're my uncle, that's why I invited you here. Meng Changfeng untied the wine jug around his waist and lit the candle on the table.
After seeing Chen Sheng clearly, he was stunned, Chen Sheng's current outfit was very different from before. In Ping (rì), Chen Sheng likes to wear a white shirt the most, which is also a plain dress with white lines, just like an ethereal sword fairy. But now, Chen Sheng is wearing a tight (shēn) black robe, with a dagger hanging from his waist, and the badge in front of (xiōng) is more like an embroidered pattern, with only a sword on it, which represents the supreme power and status of the Wu'en Gate, the royal power.
"Are you a member of the Nightmare?" Meng Changfeng frowned.
These two characters represent the killer organization that once shocked the entire northern territory of Canglan, but its real part (shēn) is the former (shēn) of the Law Enforcement Hall of the Wu'en Gate, but it is more violent, more bloodthirsty, and more all-encompassing than the Law Enforcement Hall.
"It used to be. Chen Sheng pulled out the scabbard of Zhanlu, one of the seven swords, knelt down on both knees, straightened his waist (tǐng), and laid the saber flat on the table.
"Do you want me to send you on your way with my own hands?" Meng Changfeng looked at the saber that emitted a glowing blue light.
Chen Sheng was ready to die before he came.
"Before that, I had been thinking that if one day I really had to die to apologize, I wanted you to be the one who cut off my head. Chen Sheng's tone was indifferent.
"Although I am the head of the law enforcement hall, I don't have the leisure to cut off a person's head casually, before I am executed, you should give me the reason. Meng Changfeng stretched out his hand to grasp Zhan Lu and slowly sent it back to the scabbard.
"The sins I have committed are too numerous to mention, and the demons and gods are tired of them. It is a great gift for me to die happily. Chen Sheng whispered, "I used to be the eleventh member of the Sword Nightmare, and the Blood Emperor was released by me personally. ”
Meng Changfeng's face changed slightly: "Go on!"
"It's going to take a long time, really. ”
"I still have a lot of time to listen to you tell you about your sins, but those people of Pingyang City, my unkind sons, they can't hear them anymore. ”
Chen Sheng took a slight breath, "This starts when I was a teenager. I have been an orphan since I was a child, without a father or a mother, and I heard that my parents used to be deacons of the Wuen Gate, and they had a great credit, so I was honorably sent into the inner gate as their children and began to practice the sword. At the age of twenty-five, I joined the Law Enforcement Hall, also known as the Nightmare, and I was also the youngest and best member of the Nightmare. In the past 20 years, I have lived a very happy life, with my younger brothers and sisters, with the masters who have cultivated me with my heart, and even the sect that I have fought for. It wasn't until later by chance that I came across a secret stronghold of the Evil Puppet Sect when I was out on a mission, which was within the jurisdiction of the Graceless Gate, but we had no idea what that stronghold was for. Later, when I went there, I found out that there was a group of orphans who had been raised in this stronghold, nominally to see if any of them were cultivators or kendo geniuses. Chen Sheng paused, "The person in charge of that stronghold is my parents. ”
"You used to be in there, too?"
Chen Sheng nodded slightly: "But my previous memories have been cleansed, maybe my parents' conscience found out, or some unavoidable reason that they were forced to stop the experiment, in short, I came up with all the ways I could think of to retrieve my memory." I am the first batch of blood puppets of the Graceless Sect, or the one who has the blood of the Blood Emperor. ”
"Go on. Meng Changfeng had blue tendons on his forehead, his fists clenched, and he forced himself to calm down.
"There is a large amount of Blood Emperor blood there, all of which are extremely pure and undiluted blood, and my parents have teamed up with the people of the Evil Golem Sect to extract the energy in it, and then use this energy to transform people's bodies. They wanted to test if this power could affect human consciousness, but perhaps it was my parents who were having trouble with their own children, and I was eventually released. After recovering my memory, I used all the means at my disposal to obtain the (qíng) report, and the Wu'en Gate gave me great convenience, and I found that this base was a plan inherited from the Wind Thunder Sword Sect. ”
"In order to gain power?"
"Yes, the Wind Thunder Sword Sect was extremely secretive about the implementation of this plan, but they transferred this base to the Graceless Sect, because at that time, the Wind Thunder Sword Sect and the Graceless Sect were still in an alliance, and they were eager to find a way to control this power through us. ”
Meng Changfeng nodded: "Continue." ”
"When I get my hands on these (qíng) reports, I have to meet the people of the Evil Puppet Sect, not with the word "Chen Sheng" (shēn), of course. I made a fake (shēn) copy for myself, and with a dead Elder of the Blood God Mansion, I made myself into his descendants. ”
"What is the relationship between the Blood God Mansion and the Blood Emperor?" Meng Changfeng asked.
"I don't know, it seems to be nothing, no one has evidence to prove that there is a connection between the Blood God Mansion and the Blood Emperor, but there does seem to be some kind of relationship between them. I just used the (shēn) share of the Blood God Mansion, combined with the story of the dead elder, to make up a whole (tào) lie. I have to disguise myself as a fellow traveler of the Evil Puppet Sect so that I can fool the ink (yǔn) and he will be willing to share his secrets with me. In order to win his trust, I also took out a huge sum of money, which was all the funds of the Law Enforcement Hall in five years at that time. ”
"You went to Momo (yǔn) to get something from him?"
"I didn't know at first, I just wanted to know the secret. That secret is so human, how long does it take for an ordinary human to cultivate to the Chen Xuan Realm or the Fa Xuan Realm? Even if it is you, it will take more than ten years or even decades of penance, not to mention those ordinary people with ordinary talents. And now, with a single drop of blood being able to give humanity such great power, who can resist this curiosity? Chen Sheng paused, "Compared to the forged (shēn) portion, it was the huge sum of money that played a key role. At that time, Mo (yǔn) had just succeeded him, and his plan was at a critical time, and he urgently needed a fund to run it, so even an old fritter like him let his guard down. He showed me his "farm", which was full of secretly cultivated blood golems, and there was a place where two of the samples to be cultivated that he was most proud of: you and Changxuan. Mo (yǔn) says that you two are the humans who are most likely to withstand the Blood Emperor's essence blood without losing their minds, and that what he wants to mass-produce is such powerful humans to form an invincible army. ”
"He's not trying to control the Blood Emperor to achieve his goal!" Meng Changfeng suddenly realized, "He wants to become the new Blood Emperor!!"
"Yes, he is a greedy man, and simply (cāo) controlling the blood emperor is not his goal. A child who controls a divine soldier is the most terrifying and least terrifying thing, because he is easy to control, but at the same time the most difficult to control, maybe just because there is no food to taste today, he will control the divine soldier to destroy the world. ”
"It turns out that Changxuan and I are just beasts you have cultivated. ”
Chen Sheng shook his head, "Brute, if Mo's plan is really successful, then you and Changxuan are the right and left hands of the Blood Puppet Army, and they are also the second only to the Blood Emperor's throne. ”
"But why is it only me and Changxuan who are the most perfect samples, why can't others?"
"Because you are the descendants of that man, your father is a man named Tang Wuying, he was the sect master of the Evil Puppet Sect, and he is also the greatest and most powerful emperor in the entire Canglan Empire!"
Meng Changfeng was stunned: "Tang Wuying, why have I never heard of him? Even those people in the Evil Puppet Sect have forgotten his existence?"
"Because he betrayed the Evil Puppet Sect, it was a shame for them and even the entire Leiyang County. He is the most eloscent sect master in the history of the evil puppet sect, and his reign is also the most difficult time for our Wuen Sect, he has been the sect leader of the evil puppet sect for more than 70 years, and he has divided most of Leiyang County and even several small counties around him into his own territory, even the Canglan Emperor at that time dared not speak out, because he was the Shadow Emperor, the most powerful emperor, and even the few hidden old guys in the Emperor Xuan Realm were a little jealous of him. But in the next ten years, he completely lost his image as the shadow emperor, he began to be irritable, self-serving, and borrowed alcohol to kill his sorrows, but in more than ten years, he vomited out all the territory he had beaten down, and the entire evil puppet sect was ruined by him. His abdication was an escape, and in doing so, he even broke the right leg of the man who wanted to take his place. ”
,
"Tang Wuying...... This man, is he still alive?"
"I don't know, since that day, he has completely disappeared in the crowd, and even if he doesn't die, I'm afraid he is just surviving. ”
......
......
The shopkeeper looked at the girl who was eating the bun in a small bite, and still didn't care about the table (qíng): "I'm an old man who runs a teahouse, and the evil puppet sect doesn't destroy my (pì) business! ”
"Think about it. Chen Jianxian drank a cup of tea slowly.
The soup shopkeeper casually picked up the ledger and began to plan the plate, and the kettle next to him made a gurgling sound. Chen Jianxian began to solve the second drawer of steamed buns, and also went to the kitchen to get a dish of soy sauce by himself, and the two seemed to be doing their own thing, and it seemed that they were secretly competing. A quarter of an hour passed, and with a "bang" the soup shopkeeper slapped the abacus on the table, and his right hand slammed his (xiōng) chamber into a fist, and looked up at the sky in anger. Chen Jianxian is still eating steamed buns slowly, even if she is only eating the simplest pig (ròu) celery stuffed buns at the moment, but there is a hazy sense of elegance.
"I'm convinced! I'm convinced!" the soup shopkeeper slammed the table, "Say! Why did those guys provoke you, this little ancestor?"
"I remember you have the tips of the chūn that you have been here since the opening of this year. Chen Jianxian shook the teacup, "Let's have another plate of shrimp dumplings." ”
"You, you, you...... Chen Jianxian! You're a fucking old bastard! Ever since I met you, my life has become a mess! If you want to be the strongest emperor, I'll let you be, and if you want the evil puppet sect to never violate the Wuen Gate, I'll give a death order! You can't fucking let me go once?!!" The soup shopkeeper snorted angrily and went to the counter to take out a bag of tea, "The shrimp dumplings are gone, and there are still a few egg dumplings!
"The heroes don't mention the courage of the year, isn't I, the emperor, also the strongest in the past?" Chen Jianxian smiled like a snow lotus in full bloom, "To get down to business, I have always known that the Evil Puppet Sect is secretly cultivating and studying blood puppets, but I have never asked you for the secret of the Blood Emperor, of course, it is useless to ask for it, you are attached to the Blood God Mansion on the surface, but in your heart you just want to fake the tiger's might; ”
"Hmph, the final result is that the Blood Emperor will be delivered to you sooner or later, you seem to have no intention of fighting the Evil Puppet Sect all these years, don't you just want them to relax their vigilance?"
"Of course I'm smart, otherwise I wouldn't have crushed those old foxes with a woman's share (shēn). Chen Jianxian still smiled, as beautiful as the sunset, "I originally just wanted to control the Blood Emperor and make those old guys of the Wind Thunder Sword Sect compromise, but now I know that your purpose is much more than that, you have built many bases, cultivated a lot of blood golems, and even in the abyss of the Heavenly River, there is also the shadow of that old guy." ”
Shopkeeper Tang was silent for a long time, "How do you know? ”
"I'm just like you, but I've been the strongest emperor ever. Chen Jianxian said lazily: "The formation there is extremely powerful, even I almost died in it, but I also brought a few swords to be on the safe side, and now that place has sunk into the heavenly river." ”
"That's not (tǐng) good?" the soup shopkeeper shrugged, "To celebrate that old fellow's death, I can treat you to a drink." ”
"But the old guy wasn't there anymore, and he was reminded. Chen Jianxian took out a jade slip from the Xuan Ring, and a faint light and shadow flashed on the jade slip, "I was holding the Seven Swords of Grace and wanted to kill him at this time when he was at his weakest, but he was reminded that he didn't know where he had fled. ”
The shopkeeper took the jade slip and looked at it carefully, it was a dark and dead picture, the bottomless abyss and the rolling river that fell from the sky without stopping, he handed the jade slip back to Chen Jianxian, his face was pale.
"The whistleblower must know your secrets, and it is likely that they are the top of the Evil Puppet Sect. Chen Jianxian drank a new cup of tea, "If I can't find him or the people behind him, I can only uproot the evil puppet sect to prevent future troubles." ”
The soup shopkeeper tapped his fingers on the table and thought for a long time, then he got up (shēn) and walked to the counter, picked up a pot of wine and poured a full glass for Chen Jianxian, "This...... There's no need, does it have to be so big?"
"You old guy only know about me now?" Chen Jianxian said, but he still picked up the wine glass and drank it all, with admiration on his face, "Twenty years of imperial wine bamboo leaf green!
"Ahem, (ài) Okay, don't you allow me, an old man, to treasure some wine and drink it?" the soup shopkeeper coughed dryly.
"I can assure you that not a single word of my words is false. I've come to you because I don't want to use violence to settle this matter, but you know better than I know that if that old guy gets his way, I'd rather destroy the entire Cult of Evil Puppets. Chen Jianxian said slowly, "You have to tell me everything you know, so that I can find him and kill that old fellow." I don't know what that man was up to, but I knew he couldn't live on this earth. ”
"I don't lie to you, in fact, I know very little, at that time, I was bent on developing the Evil Puppet Sect to the point where it could compete with the Blood God Mansion, and I only glanced at those ancient books twice. ”
"That's the most detailed record of the Blood Emperor in a priceless city, you said you just flipped through it?"
"At that time, I only vaguely knew about the existence of the Blood Emperor, and although the people under my command admired me very much, they didn't dare to let me know too much about these things, so they probably wanted to tell me all about the Blood Emperor after the research was successful. At that time, I thought that this was some strange secret genius being cultivated in the sect, so I didn't pay attention to it. ”
"It sounds like there's a Jiupin Xuandan on your lips, and you throw it aside because it looks like a (ròu) ball. ”
"It sounds, but that's what it is. Shopkeeper Tang sighed, "At that time, I was so high-spirited, all I was thinking about was how to bring down your ungraced sect so that I could become the ruler of Leiyang County, and then use this to recuperate, and use the power of the whole county to help me break through the Emperor Xuan, which really made the three major sects jealous." ”
"It's all said that the heroes don't mention the courage of the year, what year and month did this happen?"
"The secret books of the Evil Puppet Sect are all recorded and protected by special personnel, and they can even be traced back thousands of years, and there is a room full of jade slips filled with records about the Blood Emperor. The beginning is the catastrophe of heaven and earth two thousand years ago, the sky opened a hole, so that the water of extreme ice surged, the bottom is the legendary Tongtianyue, in order not to make Tongtianyue submerged, several emperors of the vast continent joined forces to move Tongtianyue to the east for thousands of miles, and since then it has become a famous Tianhe, but decades later, people found a girl at the foot of Tongtianyue Mountain. ”
Chen Jianxian slowly sat up straight, his expression solemn, and listened carefully to Tang Wuying's words.
"The whole mountain has been frozen by the water of the Tianhe River for ten years, and the girl has also slept in it for ten years, and the two Emperor Xuanjing powerhouses who were the first to find the girl fought for the girl, and all the creatures in the vast northern realm looked at Tongtianyue, and they could see the thunder rolling there, and the light covered the sky, and the battle lasted for several months, and finally the girl and the two super strong men disappeared. ”
"The girl is the Blood Emperor, and those two Emperor Xuanjing are the founders of the Evil Puppet Sect and the Graceless Sect, the Evil Emperor and the Sword Emperor?" asked Chen Jianxian.
"I'm not sure, the things recorded in these jade slips (qíng) are too old, and I'm just guessing. Shopkeeper Tang paused and continued: "After that great war, the girl seemed to have sunk into the abyss of the heavenly river for hundreds of years, and after a few hundred years, someone ventured into that bottomless and extremely cold place. We have no way of knowing how that man entered the abyss that was infinitely washed by the waters of the heavenly river, but he did it anyway, and made a deal with the frozen girl. ”
"That guy let her out?"
"Yes, that person is the third generation head of the Evil Puppet Sect, he rescued the frozen Blood Emperor, and the Blood Emperor gave her blood and power. ”
"Now it seems to be getting farther and farther away, I just want to know who that old guy really is, and who let him out. ”
The shopkeeper Tang poured himself a glass of wine, drank it in one gulp, and then let out a sigh: "But that girl is not a complete Blood Emperor, and she does not admit that she is the Blood Emperor, and besides, that girl is always saying that she is looking for her master, and her existence is for the rebirth of her master." In this way, it is naturally not difficult to find that this girl is just something similar to "nourishment", and that old guy just wants to use the blood of the Blood Emperor to become holy. ”
"Sanctification, even if it's a monster?"
"I don't know, but what if you become a monster in pursuit of power, so in our eyes, the Blood Emperor is both a holy and an evil thing, she can give you power, but the price is your soul. ”
"According to what you say, the Blood Emperor is now complete. ”
"That's right, so we have been carefully guarding the existence of the Blood Emperor, and then every sect master who succeeded the evil puppet sect was responsible for suppressing her, but when he was the twelfth generation of the sect master, he found the other half of the Blood Emperor, some people said it was a small flag, but no one knew what it was. The Blood Emperor who fused that thing completely awakened, and the Evil Golem Sect paid an extremely painful price to suppress her. Shopkeeper Tang said slowly, "Although the Blood Emperor has been re-suppressed, the Evil Puppet Sect has also had to share her secrets with the three major sects and the Wu'en Sect. ”
