Chapter 31: The Secret of the Sky (13)
The blood-red set up a ladder between the sky and the earth, and the blood-red sky slipped down the ladder to the earth, dyeing the originally cold ground into a beautiful blood-red, but in the distant wilderness there was still a boundless pitch black, as if the darkness was always a thin point, but it never disappeared. Lan Xingye, the king of light, stood on the castle of the country of light, he looked at the pitch black in the distance that could never be erased, and a trace of sadness rose in his heart, he didn't know if tomorrow's tomorrow would still be full of warmth, he didn't know whether he would see light behind the darkness except for the darkness, he didn't know whether happiness could be eternal, and whether harmony could last forever, so he could only convert the sadness in his heart into endless desolation and lonely hesitation.
At the same time, the faithful minister was about to leave Dugu Jian's wooden house and return to the land of light, his heart was half bright and half sad, bright because he had discovered the source of darkness, sad because the dark king Lu Zhuxuan had snatched the crystal ball, and when he came to the side of the king of light with mixed feelings, he saw that the eyes of the king of light were full of indescribable sadness.
The faithful minister put his hand to his chest and said, "Why is the monarch so sad, the country of light and the people are safe, what are you displeased about?"
The King of Light sighed, looked at the pitch black in the distance, and said, "Aichen, everything in the world must be beautiful and ugly, good and evil, just like this blood red and pitch black, although the two do not blend, but they must exist at the same time. β
"Don't be gloomy, Sovereign, we will eradicate the darkness of the sky for you, so that the Kingdom of Light will always stand above all nations. β
The Lord of Light waved his hand, looked at the pitch black again, and said, "Where is the source of darkness that I asked you to seek, and will it affect humanity?"
"Sovereign, the source of darkness has gathered on top of Dugu Jian's wooden house, and I have been trying to catch up, but when I arrived, Dugu Jian's wooden house was already in ruins, and their family was also frightened. The Faithful Chancellor looked to the ground and said regretfully.
"Are they hurt, and do I need to go and comfort them?" said the King of Light, looking back, worried.
"Sovereign, they were just a little frightened and not hurt, so you don't have to worry too much. β
"That's good, have you found out why the source of darkness is gathered on top of Dugu Arrow's wooden house?"
"I've heard from Crystal Lena that the Lord of Darkness, Lu Zhuxuan, led his soldiers to swarm down from the Demon Mountain and snatched the crystal ball you gave to Dugu Arrow, and this intense pitch black was the result of their unprovoked invasion. The faithful minister said tremblingly, not daring to look into the eyes of the King of Light.
"If you lose it, you lose it, how can a small crystal ball destroy the relationship between the king and his courtiers, and no one knows what secrets are hidden in the crystal ball, it can only be regarded as a useless ornament now. β
"Sovereign, I thank you for your forgiveness on behalf of Dugu Arrow, you are worthy of a generation of Ming Jun. β
"If nothing else, you can step aside, I want to be alone in the castle for a little longer. β
At this moment, the pitch black in the distance began to spread to the blood-red place, and he clearly knew that that place was the Magic Mountain, and a dull haze blinded the eyes of the King of Light through the light.
The blood-red in the sky was dragged into the dark valley again and again, as if the ice-blue sky was fragile, fragile like a thin piece of paper, and the pitch-black was like a sharp knife, piercing the deepest part of the blood-red. Lan Xingye, the king of light, returned to the bedroom from the castle at this time, he lay on the bed and tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, maybe the pitch black was too intense, he felt that the whole room began to be filled with a thick twilight, in fact, he was thinking that there must be some huge conspiracy behind the dark king Lu Zhuxuan snatching the crystal ball, how could a small crystal ball make the overlord of the Demon Mountain gather thousands of soldiers to snatch it, it seems that he has only known how to consolidate the hegemony of Qianqiu and ignored one of the most important things, but he only guessed out of thin air with his own intuition, what amazing secret the crystal ball has He is still ignorant, and his heart has a premonition, the darkness will soon crush the boundless blood red with a mighty momentum.
Suddenly, one of the ministers of the King of Light pushed open the door and walked in, he was the secret agent sent by the King of Darkness Lu Zhuxuan to the Land of Light, the King of Light saw that someone had entered the bedroom, so he turned his head and said, "Minister, the monarch is a little unwell today, let's talk about it another day!"
"Sovereign, I want to reveal to you a great secret, and this secret has to do with the crystal ball. The spy was on his knees, his head hanging low.
"Speak quickly!" the King of Light blurted out, staring straight at the minister lying on the ground, and said, "If you have anything to do, stand up and say it, no need to be polite!"
"Sovereign, I have heard that the crystal ball is a condensation of the essence of the universe, and has blessed the spiritual power of God, giving it the ability to rule the world and predict the future. The Secret Agent paced around the room, his hand scribbling in mid-air.
"Really?" the Lord of Light sat up at once, his eyes almost popping out.
"Well, whoever has that supreme crystal ball will be able to rule the whole world. The spy raised his hand high as if it were about to reach to heaven.
"As you say, the kingdom of light will surely be destroyed, and the kingdom of darkness will once again stand above all nations. The King of Light said in a cold sweat on his head.
"That's right, monarch, don't forget, the country of darkness and the country of light once formed a blood feud, once the Lord of Darkness led his troops to attack the country of light, we will definitely not be their opponents, coupled with the invincible power of the crystal ball, the country of light will cease to exist at that time. β
The King of Light was furious when he heard this, and rebuked angrily: "It's only because I was too negligent and gave the crystal ball to Dugu Arrow, which caused such a huge disaster." β
"Sovereign, you can't be blamed entirely for this, Dugu Arrow and they also have an unshirkable responsibility, besides, they lost the crystal ball because they didn't take good care of it," the spy minister looked at the face of the King of Light, knowing that his plot had succeeded, so he continued, "Sovereign, I think you should personally go to Dugu Jian's home to inspect it, so as to convict them of a serious crime." β
The King of Light breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand, and said, "You go down first, and let me think about it again." β
At this time, the faint pitch black in the sky had swallowed most of the blood red, and some of the too strong pitch black directly smashed through the door and floated in, the Lord of Light knew that the darkness was about to sweep the whole world, and the disaster would erupt violently in the bloody wind and rain at any time. He thought for a long time, then quickly jumped out of bed, ready to gather all the soldiers of the Kingdom of Light and go straight to Dugu Jian's wooden house, and suddenly his eyes released a strange blood red.
The blood-red flame burned from the edge of the sky to the center, and from the center to the edge of the sky, and even the earthy yellow earth began to glow more and more blood-red. Lan Xingye, the king of light, looked at the raging blood-red, his memory returned from pitch black to blood-red, from night to day, from the past to the present, and there was still a warm light flowing in front of his eyes.
The sky was soaked with fiery red flames, as ruddy as roses blooming in the warm spring, and the earth quietly watched the blood red drifting from the sky, feeling that it should have been red. When the executioner raised his broadsword and slashed down at the tyrannical minister, two blood-red flames of light came out from the sky, these two flames of light were gathered by the ancestors of the Lord of Light using their spiritual power, and a flame of light shot towards the executioner who was performing the beheading, only to see him shout loudly, and the broadsword in his hand slid softly to the ground.
Another flame of light shot at the loyal minister sitting on the high hall, his snow-white high hat spread out layer by layer, all illuminated by blood red, at this time, a blurred face appeared behind his head, the king of light Lan Xingye fixed his eyes, this face is the face of the dark king Lu Zhuxuan, he didn't know when to possess the body of the loyal minister, although the dark king's body has rotted, but his lonely soul still exists, the king of light immediately took out the blood-red wand, emitted a blood-red light flame and shot overγ
The loyal minister was controlled by his thoughts, and he quickly drew out the transparent black wand, and sent out a transparent lightning bolt to fight back, and suddenly, the two forces that were difficult to coexist competed with each other between heaven and earth, however, after all, the dark lord was parasitic on someone else's body, and the lightning he sent out was obviously much weaker, plus it was the world of daylight at this time, and the blood red flowed all over the sky, he finally couldn't parry, and retreated step by step.
At this time, the Lord of Light saw that the time was ripe for a counterattack, so he sent out a more powerful flame, only to see the blood-red tongue of fire devouring all the tiny transparent colors, and piercing the chest of the faithful minister, he was hit by this blood-red flame and flew far away, lying on the ground and spitting out a large patch of blood, at this time, the Lord of Darkness saw that his fiasco was irreparable, so he dragged the lonely soul to the magic mountain. The Lord of Light withdrew his wand, and with a heavy heart, he walked over, and took the faithful minister into his arms, and ordered the soldiers to give him a great state funeral, and put the tyrannical minister back in prison until all his life was exhausted.
The sky was burned by blood-red flames that did not leave a single gap, as if blood-red only belonged to day, but the pitch black was still brewing, a vague world was fighting a bright world, and everything was just beginning......
