The sky glowed white, and as the sun rose again, the blood of last night disappeared with the wind.

The Ink Pavilion was so quiet that it seemed as if time had stood still, and on the central table was an iced right arm, and mysterious golden spells spilled out from the depths of the ice.

The shrine next to him contained Gao Chengchuan's head, which had been wrapped in layers of white veil, although Gongsun Yan, who had not slept all night, had bloodshot eyes, he was still energetic and could not see the slightest tiredness, biting his finger and clicking on the center of the skull, only to see the blood light slowly burning, turning into a beam of white smoke and gradually gathering in the center of his eyebrows.

Gongsun Yan's eyes gradually changed, and he carefully pinched the smoke, as if he had really pinched something tangible, soft and collapsed, and a little wet, making him feel nauseous between his eyebrows, holding back his emotions, and silently reciting the mantra of Dongming with his lips and teeth together.

The butterfly flew around its head seven times, and finally stopped at the location of the seven orifices, and its wings slowly expanded, encircling the entire skull.

Fei Yuan doesn't believe in reincarnation, but the four realms all have terrifying and weird soul arts, and he can't let this old man who finally died "come back to life" by any means, and "not dead or alive" can't do it!

This person must die, his soul will be scattered, and he will never die without reincarnation!

The white mist sensed the danger, and struggled at his fingertips, one moment condensed, one moment scattered, thicker and thicker, little by little it turned into jet black, conjuring up a hideous eye hole, revealing an indescribable mysterious aura, and he looked at each other directly, Gongsun Yan held his breath, and pulled out the short knife on his waist with the other hand, not in a hurry, the movements in his hand also fell accurately, the short knife cut horizontally from the center of the fog, and when the mist dispersed into two clouds, it was a vertical cut, and a cross mark appeared.

It was at this moment that the Stygian Butterfly flew up again and burrowed into the cross seal, like an ancient and mysterious spell, completely shattering the extracted remnant soul.

"How?" Looking at the movements of his subordinates, Mingxi, who was sitting on the side, coughed lightly and asked.

"The old man has really tried a lot of medicines himself, the power of the remnant soul is much stronger than that of ordinary people, if you don't do this, you can't really borrow the corpse and return the soul one day. Gongsun Yan shook his head and sighed, his hands were not idle, and he said with some joy in his mouth, "Fortunately, the person who hit him hard last time came from the Heavenly Realm, otherwise with the body of the old man, it would be difficult for ordinary people to hurt him, but now that he is really dead, the remnant soul has been completely shattered by me, and it is impossible to live anymore." ”

Celestial Realm...... Hearing these three words, Mingxi's gaze changed from vigilant to helpless, and he suddenly remembered the God of War Emperor Zhong who appeared in front of him that day with Xiao Qianye's body.

Once such a person becomes an enemy, he will only be ten thousand times more difficult than the Night King, right?

Thinking of this, Mingxi still quietly picked up the tea in his hand and moistened his already smoking throat.

Gongsun Yan shook his hand, pointed to the broken arm on the table, and frowned: "What should I do with this thing?"

Mingxi rolled his eyes, and his brows were wrinkled again by his words, and his fingers with jade wrenches shook suddenly, paused the movements of his hands, and looked at the tea intently.

There are dozens of puppet insects hidden in this arm frozen by the Ten Sword Sealing Techniques, each of which is related to the lives of important people in the shadows, and now that they have fallen into his hands, it is tantamount to making these people become his subordinates overnight!

Gongsun Yan held his chin and muttered to himself, not seeing a trace of gloom on the other party's face inadvertently, he couldn't hold his breath and kept looking out of the door, pacing back and forth and muttering: "Why hasn't Xiao Yibai come back, he shouldn't be able to find that male pet, right?" Ah Zheng', several aristocratic wives in the imperial capital city have named him to serve, but he is a little popular, I didn't expect that not only can I coax women to have some skills, but I can also hang the head of the prince under my nose to the governor's mansion, this guy is really not simple, Mingxi, what are you going to do?"

"He has the intention to betray Gao Chengchuan and join me, so naturally he has to try to see if it can be used. Mingxi answered casually, slowly opened his eyes and smiled.

"Try?" Gongsun Yan looked puzzled, but in the face of his friend who lowered his head and chuckled, a trace of coldness flashed in his heart, and he asked with some anxiety, "What to try?"

Mingxi's voice was calm, and he pointed to the arm: "Naturally, try those monsters that were hidden by Gao Chengchuan." ”

"Hey......" Gongsun Yan's pupils shrank, countless complicated emotions flashed in his eyes, and he lowered his voice, "Such a dangerous thing, don't you destroy it directly?"

"No, I can't. Mingxi's fingertips secretly gathered, obviously a thin body that couldn't help but be weak, but he pinched out the crack in the tea bowl in his hand, and the candle flame flickered in the dark ink pavilion, and the shadow was reflected on the emperor's slightly bitter face, "Gongsun Yan, I want to make a two-handed plan." ”

The two glanced at each other with strange expressions, Gongsun Yan Huoran understood, and his face turned pale, but he still silently pressed his emotions and looked at Mingxi in front of him like a stranger: "What do you mean?"

"About that god-killing scheme...... I have to do it both ways. Mingxi didn't want to hide his intentions, he raised his head and looked directly into his friend's eyes, "Once the Night King regains the ancient species in the eyes of the array, Feiyuan will face the disaster of collapse and destruction, if ...... I mean, if Xiao Qianye fails, or if he changes his mind and gives up, Feiyuan who has lost the power of the Formation Eye will not be able to continue, so I must prepare for the worst now. ”

Gongsun Yan pursed his lips, and when the words came to his mouth, he was forced back by the bitterness in his throat, seeing his friend's embarrassment, Mingxi was still calm, like all ruthless emperors, and said lightly: "Gongsun Yan, after I sat in this position, I realized that there are too many things in this world that cannot be chosen, I can pin Feiyuan's millions of lives on him alone, and I must also bear the consequences of failure, if it were replaced by you, one person and all Feiyuan, what choice would you make?"

Silence swept in, and the two exchanged glances thoughtfully, and finally turned their heads away, not daring to look at each other's eyes again.

Gongsun Yan is still stunned, once a person's identity and position change, he will face all kinds of helpless choices, just like Mingxi during the crown prince period urgently needs to win over Xiao Qianye to obtain vital military power, and now he no longer needs these, the only thing he has to do is to become a qualified "king".

"It's not that I don't distrust him. Mingxi looked straight into his friend's eyes, and a bleak smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "So I also said that I would let the Wind Demon do his best to help him, but even so, how sure is he that he will succeed in the face of the Night King?

"I'm going to help him...... But also leave yourself a way out. Mingxi gritted his teeth hard, "I am responsible for my own people." ”

Gongsun Yan's mind was confused by what he said, and he waved his hand at a loss, he has always been a resolute and decisive person, how could he be so indecisive at such a critical moment!?

Mingxi's words are obviously right, in the face of the Night King of the Heavenly Realm, no one can say that he is 100% sure of success, once he fails, Feiyuan will face the disaster of destruction, he is the emperor of Feiyuan, he must face all possible consequences and make the most critical choice.

Even if this choice is to give up a person who will help him become king. The first Chinese network

Mingxi exerted his strength again, this time pinching the tea bowl, and the broken slag pierced into the palm of his hand, but he didn't seem to feel pain at all, his eyes were bright in an instant, and he narrated in an extremely calm tone: "If the Night King really succeeds in taking away the Formation Eye, then the only person who is most likely to become a new Formation Eye for a long time at the moment is ...... Xiao Qianye. ”

Gongsun Yan took a half step back, opened his mouth because of nervousness, and couldn't say a word, Mingxi looked at him calmly, and a decisive and stoic light suddenly flashed in his eyes: "If he can make the Night King become the new formation eye, it will naturally be the best result, if not...... Then I can only give up on him. ”

"You're going to ...... Use what Gao Chengchuan left behind to deal with him?" Gongsun Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief, ignoring that the person in front of him was a high-ranking emperor, and shouted sharply, "Mingxi, you can't just throw it away when ......you run out of use! What will Xiao Yibai think of you?"

Hearing such a question, Mingxi lowered his head with a complicated expression, looked at the jade wrench in his hand, and various thoughts flashed through his mind.

What will Xiao Yibai think of him...... Wouldn't it be disappointing, even hopeless?

But this thought only lasted for a few seconds, and a painful expression appeared on Mingxi's face, but he still did not hesitate to speak: "I have to do this, Gongsun Yan, the wind demon is still deployed by you alone, I want you to do your best to help him, but at the same time, those things left by Gao Chengchuan, you must be transferred to the territory of Jia Luo as soon as possible, once they enter the formation, I want those things to be on standby nearby at any time, and besides, today's words are only known to you and me, if a third person knows, you will also die." ”

"Heh......" Gongsun Yan smiled bitterly, a little incredulous, "It is said that a companion is like a tiger, and I have personally experienced this feeling today...... Shouldn't I be glad that you—you trust me so much...... Entrust me with such an important task. ”

“......”

Gongsun Yan stepped back with a dull look in his eyes, and muttered in a low voice: "It's true that everything has changed, isn't it, Brother Mingxi?"

There was a soft "squeak" sound outside, and crisp footsteps came in this direction.

The two of them converged their expressions at the same time, and sat back in their positions in the next moment, Mingxi quietly withdrew his blood-stained hand into his sleeve and brushed aside the slag on the table.

Xiao Yibai led Ah Zheng back to the ink pavilion, and at a glance he saw the frozen arms on the table and the head in the shrine.

Mingxi casually avoided red tape, and looked up and down several times this male pet who was popular with aristocratic ladies, and he smiled calmly, really blending the femininity of a woman and the fortitude of a man, and he was not afraid at all.

"What's your name?" Mingxi couldn't help but sigh, feeling a little regretful, and asked casually.

The male pet's eyes were crazy, and the corners of his mouth raised a strange arc: "It used to be called thirty-three, but now it is called politics, and as for the future...... Let Your Majesty like it. ”

"Oh?" Mingxi was slightly stunned, and was also shocked for a moment by such a reply, and couldn't help laughing, "What do you mean by changing your mind and being a new person?"

"Whether I can change my mind or not is all in the mind of Your Majesty. ”

Mingxi's eyes revealed a rare surprise, he was silent for a few seconds, pointed to the bookcase in the corner of the ink pavilion, turned around and smiled at Xiao Yibai: "Help me bring the first book on the third floor." ”

Xiao Yibai frowned and glanced at him, but still took it according to his meaning, Gongsun Yan took a curious look, and found that it was a "Classic of Mountains and Seas" from the Central Plains, and couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, and asked puzzledly: "At this time, you still see this kind of strange talk that is not boundary?"

Mingxi ignored him, as if he was seriously looking at something, flipped through the book casually, and stared at a few lines of small words silently for a long time.

Gongsun Yan looked at him embarrassedly, then looked at the male pet, and before he could say anything, Mingxi had already closed the book in his hand and said with a smile: "I heard that you were sold from Jingcheng to the Imperial Capital Drage Pavilion, although most of your background is also fake, but you should know that there is a military pavilion near Jingcheng, named Zhu Yan." ”

"I know. The male pet answered calmly, although he didn't understand the true intention of the emperor in front of him, "There are only six Zhu Yan in Yangchuan, stationed in the Great Annihilation City and the surrounding five small cities, it is said that this strange beast can breathe fire, extremely difficult to tame, the fire accident that caused more than 100,000 casualties in Jingcheng back then, it is secretly rumored that Zhu Yan was injured by mistake. ”

Mingxi nodded and looked at him meaningfully: "This book is from the Central Plains, called "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", it describes Zhu Yan like this, 'There are beasts, its shape is like an ape, and the white head is barefoot, the name is Zhu Yan, and when you see it, you are a soldier. ”

The male pet frowned, he didn't know much about the culture of the Central Plains, and he didn't know why His Majesty suddenly mentioned these things at this moment, so he had to purse his lips and remain silent, not daring to answer easily.

The meaning of this sentence is that this strange beast is a sign of war, and as long as it appears, there will be war in the world. Mingxi exhaled, closed his eyes, and suddenly had a peculiar impulse, and whispered: "From now on, you will be called Zhu Yan." ”

The male pet was stunned for a moment, and there was an unconcealable shock in his eyes - such an ominous name, this person gave him such an ominous name so easily?

He is the emperor of Feiyuan, and war is the last thing he wants to see, so why don't he shy away from it, and even give this name to a person like himself who has betrayed him repeatedly?

He looked up puzzled, trying to find something from the other party's sight, but this glance saw that his heart was like an ice cave, it was obviously a pair of golden eyes as dazzling as the sun, but it revealed the coldness that made him cold to the bone marrow.

What a strange person...... There was no bottom in his eyes, deeper than anyone he had ever seen.

The smile on the corner of the male pet's mouth slowly disappeared, his brain was silent, and the afterglow swept over the frozen arm next to him, and there was a strong uneasiness in his heart - no wonder Gao Chengchuan didn't strangle the puppet worm at that time and die with himself, he must also want to see what kind of fate he would have if he fell into the hands of His Majesty Mingxi, right?

People like him can only go from one hell to another.

The male pet finally smiled stubbornly, knelt down humbly in front of Mingxi, but his eyes suddenly froze, as if he had some kind of consciousness, and whispered: "Zhu is disgusted...... Thank you for your name. ”

The candle flame in the ink pavilion flickered, reflecting a few people with their own thoughts, and there was no sound.
