Chapter Twenty-Five: The Demon Emperor's Robe
The white light was in a coma for three days, and when he woke up, it was the morning of the fourth day.
He sat up, feeling the power of more than two thousand years roaming back and forth in his body, wandering freely and unimpeded. "This feels great!" Bai Guang stretched out his right hand, trying to gather the power into his palm.
In just an instant, a flame appeared in his palm. He knew that what he had condensed was the magic of the Red Fire Demon. He clenched his fist, and the flames vanished.
He spread his palms again, gathering his strength there.
After a while, a white glow appeared in his palm. This light is full of righteousness, which is completely consistent with Bai Guang's character, which is the power that originally existed in his body.
He waved his hand and withdrew his power.
Bai Guang got out of bed and saw the food on the table, and then he remembered that he had slept for an unknown amount of time, and he didn't know if it was day or night outside. "Whatever he is! Bai Guang thought to himself.
He grabbed the flatbread on the table and devoured it.
When he had eaten and drunk to his heart's content, he thought of the leaves. "I wonder how the leaves are now?"
What else can the leaves do?
In Ye Zi's heart, these three days of waiting are like three or even thirty years.
Ye Zi looked forward to the white light energy appearing in front of her in an instant, taking her away and flying away. But she also hoped that the three days would pass quickly, and the white light would not appear. She felt that the power of the white light could not be better than Mao Hai and Mao He, and these two brothers were completely beyond the human race.
Ye Zi looked at Hongjian lying on the bed, and felt very uncomfortable. He suffered serious internal injuries, and one of his legs was broken by Mao Hai. The old woman didn't eat a single bite of the rice leaves, and Hongjian didn't eat a drop of water. He persuaded Ye Zi to leave the village as soon as possible while it was dark and go to find the location of the white light, even if he couldn't find the white light, at least leave this place of right and wrong first.
Ye Zi repeatedly told Hongjian to take care of his injuries first, and don't worry about the rest. She thought that these two brothers were highly skilled, and they were definitely not something ordinary people could resist. If they escape, they will attack the villagers. It is not easy for everyone to live, and instead of letting them persecute the villagers, it is better to exchange themselves for the peace of the whole village.
The old woman couldn't stand it anymore, so she contacted several villagers and asked them to leave the place at night while the moonlight was taking the leaves and red mi.
Ye Zi has a stubborn personality and makes it difficult to change things that he decides. She told the old woman that she would go from house to house tonight to inform everyone that they would leave the village overnight and find a good place to settle down. And he will stay, if he waits for the white light, he will fly away with him. If she can't wait, it will be providence, it is God who asked her to marry Mao Hai, and she will admit it, and then please take Hongjian away.
The old woman said nothing and left alone. She did as Ye Zi instructed, and notified them door to door. Everyone was reluctant to leave the leaves behind, and they decided to face the Mao Hai and the Mao River with the leaves.
Ye Zi is most relieved now that Hongjian is not in the village, and there is no good doctor in the village, and his injuries need to be treated well. Now the best thing to do is for the people in the village to leave with Hongmi.
When night fell, dozens of people gathered in the old woman's house. They were specially invited by the leaves. Ye Zi also told them what she thought, but everyone was unwilling to leave her alone.
Ye Zi was really helpless, so she could only threaten her with death, so everyone had to do what she wanted.
Everyone carried Hongjian, taking advantage of the moonlight, and slowly assembled at the entrance of the village.
Maohai and Maohe are not fuel-efficient lamps. The two of them had already discussed, and Mao Hai stayed behind to observe every move in the village. Mao He returned to the Dragon Clan and told their father, Elder Jiang, that in three days, Mao Hai would marry a mortal woman as his wife, so that they could prepare early.
Therefore, when the villagers gathered at the entrance of the village, they were drunk back by Mao Hai one by one.
A few bold people repeatedly begged Mao Hai to let them out and heal Hongjian's injuries. Mao Hai saw that he was alive and dead, and said sarcastically, "Isn't he capable, then let him heal himself!"
"Bastard, beast, have the ability to kill me!" Hiromi lay on the stretcher, rolled over, and rolled to the ground. He endured the pain and crawled to his feet, and drew his dagger.
Mao Hai was annoyed and angry, and punched him over, directly knocking Hongjian away.
The villagers were frightened, and they took a few steps back one by one, not daring to look up at Mao Hai.
"Who else wants to leave the village?" Mao Hai roared.
Everyone was so frightened that they didn't dare to make a sound, and they didn't even dare to gasp for air.
"Come on, eat my sword!" Seeing the blood flowing from the corners of his mouth, Hong rushed up panting, wanting to give Mao Hai a fatal blow. It was almost his last blow, and it was his full blow.
"Bang!", Mao Hai flashed in an instant, and quickly jumped to the top of Hongmi's head, kicking Hongmi to the ground, making a huge sound, and this kick directly shattered more than half of Hongmi's bones.
Hongjian fell to the ground, bleeding profusely, he had no power to fight back, and he couldn't even speak.
Ye Zi didn't know when she ran over, but she was still late. Hongmi had fallen to the ground half-dead, and no matter how much she shouted, Hongmi never answered.
"I said, do any of you want to leave the village? "Three days later is my big day, you are all gone, who will witness my big day?"
Ye Zi tore a few strips of cloth from her clothes and wiped the blood for Hongmi, who completely ignored Mao Hai.
Mao Hai continued, "In three days, I want to see my beautiful wife and you all appear at the entrance of the village, not someone missing. If that's the case, I'll kill all the people in the village without mercy......"
"You don't have to do that!" Ye Zi couldn't bear it anymore, and said, "If you let them go, I won't break my word." β
"Let them go? Do you think you have any capital to negotiate with me? If something happens to you, none of them will want to live, not even a hair. Mao Hai didn't know where he got so angry, he grabbed Hongmi on the ground and hung him from a tree.
Ye Zi didn't say anything, she didn't do anything, there was only indifference in her eyes, only that feeling of heart death.
Ye Zi didn't say a word to anyone and went home alone.
She continued to tidy up the house, with a serious look, as if the marriage in three days had been forgotten. Her serious appearance makes people feel distressed.
The old woman stood behind the leaf at some point, and she felt sorry for the leaf. However, she is single and weak, and now all she can do for her is companionship.
The leaves were cleaned up for a long, long time, and finally everything was cleaned up to their liking. She leaned on the window, looking at the stars in the sky, thinking about the bits and pieces with the white light, although short, but so beautiful.
The old woman looked at the leaves, and saw that she was looking down at the window, and then smiling...... She didn't know how to comfort the leaves. She watched and watched, tears flowed involuntarily, she put on a coat for the leaves, and then accompanied the leaves and sat beside her.
Ye Zi was overly missed, and after a night, many gray hairs grew on her temples. But she didn't notice it, the old woman saw it in her eyes, and she was anxious in her heart. She hoped that Bai Guang could come back as soon as possible and save Ye Zi and the whole village in time.
How did they know that Bai Guang had been in a coma, and when Bai Guang woke up, three days had just passed.
At this time, Bai Guangzheng was sitting alone at the door of the Lingshi Palace, he looked at the bouquet of flowers in front of him blankly, this flower grew alone at the door of the Lingshi Palace, very conspicuous, and the appearance was also very peculiar, the petals were red and purple, charming and dignified. Bai Guang looked at it, although he couldn't name it, he just liked it inexplicably. "This flower is too much like a leaf, stubborn and beautiful. Bai Guang muttered to himself.
"Hey, what are you doing here?" the Red Fire Demon hurried over.
"What's wrong?" Bai Guang stood up, and seeing the Red Fire Demon's serious expression, Bai Guang had a hunch that something bad must have happened.
"Remember your little henchman?"
"You meanβHongmi! What's wrong with him?" Bai Guang saw the Red Fire Demon's expression solemn, and a sense of foreboding arose.
"I gave him a pill and told him to throw it into the sky when he and the leaves were in trouble or when their bodies were threatened. The pill was actually a flare, but they haven't sent a signal so far!"
"That means they're doing well!"
"Not true. Every day I use my power to use my divine sense to determine where they are. Just now, just now, I couldn't even sense where they were. Either they left Yanping Village, or they ......"
"Or what?" Bai Guang was anxious, grabbing the Red Fire Demon's hand and shaking it non-stop.
"Either there's no sign of life!"
When Bai Guang heard "There are no signs of life", his blood and air flow continued to surge throughout his body, and that kind of resentful aura made the Red Fire Demon feel a chill.
But that resentment quickly faded.
It turned out that it was the Holy Water Divine Bead in the Spirit Stone Hall that played a role. This is something that the white light is now deeply felt. He quickly quieted himself. He knew that it would be very dangerous for him to be in a negative mood all the time in front of the Holy Water Divine Bead. He can only remain peaceful, and there is nothing else to do.
"Perhaps, they went somewhere else!" said something that Bai Guang couldn't believe himself, but where would they go?
"Newspaper-",
At that moment, a heavily armed guard in armor ran to the side. He presented a wedding card with both hands and said, "Your Highness Bingsan, the Dragon Clan has sent an invitation to attend their wedding banquet!"
The Red Fire Demon took the wedding card and opened it to look at it. "What the hell is this dragon going on?" he said to himself, and then asked the guard, "Did my eldest brother and second brother receive the invitation?"
"Back to the Third Highness, His Royal Highness and Second Highness received it, but neither of them said they would go. β
"Then I'm not going either, what's there to go, those idiots of the dragon clan!"
Bai Guang on the side was silent, he frowned, and thought of something. He whispered to the Red Fire Demon, "Can you sense the situation in that dragon forbidden land?"
The Red Fire Demon laughed dryly, he waved his hand, motioned for the guard to stand back, and then said to Bai Guang, "That forbidden land is not called for nothing, even if you can sense it, but I don't know anything about the situation there." I guess you're thinking about Hongmi and Leaf, and it's related to the dragons, right?"
"Yes, I have a bad feeling that this dragon must be doing something ...... ghosts."
The Red Fire Demon looked incredulous, and he thought to himself, "But don't let this kid and the dragon clan go against each other." This kid has dragon veins on his body, and nine times out of ten he is a member of the dragon clan. If this is really right, there will be trouble in the future, and it will be difficult for the Heavenly Palace to intervene......" The Red Fire Demon didn't dare to think about it anymore, and he didn't have a better way for a while. Because he still has important things to do at this time, otherwise he would talk so much nonsense to him, and he has the kung fu to go directly with Bai Guang to find out, but he just can't go.
Just when he was in a dilemma, four people walked aside.
The four of them were dressed in gold armor and red cloaks, looking like gods and generals.
The four of them walked towards this side, talking and laughing.
When the Red Fire Demon saw the four of them, his eyes suddenly lit up. He let Bai Guang stand by and stepped forward himself, stopping the four men.
The five of you talked and I said a word, they talked and laughed, and they were old friends who saw each other and couldn't wait to drink his three hundred cups.
The Red Fire Demon suddenly became serious, and he said something to the four of them. I saw the four of them listening attentively, looking at the white light from time to time. In the end, they seemed to have reached an agreement, and then the four of them bowed to the Red Fire Demon together.
The Red Fire Demon bowed his hands as well, and then turned to the white light.
"Boy, I'll borrow you four people and a robe, you can rest assured and boldly go to Ye Zi and Hongjian. People block killing, and demons block killing demons. By the way, the gems in the Spirit Stone Palace, you pick one and bring it with you in case you need it. I still have important things, so I won't go with you. β
As he spoke, the Red Fire Demon walked into the Spirit Stone Hall, took off a robe from the altar in front of the stone statue, put it on for Bai Guang, and put back the black cloak that Bai Guang had originally put on.
"Boy, don't worry, with this robe, even the Emperor of Heaven has to give three points when he sees it. In addition, the four people I am talking about are the four of them, I will go first, you and them will set off immediately, they will help you!"
With that, the Red Fire Demon turned into a ball of flame and flew away.
The "four people" in the mouth of the Red Fire Demon were the four generals in golden armor not far away.
White Light nodded at them, and the four men returned the salute to him.
Bai Guang was flattered, he didn't understand why the four of them had given him a big gift. He didn't know that the moment he put on his robe, it was simply imposing. The four of them were in a trance, as if they saw the figure of the Demon Emperor in the same circle. They are too similar, both of them are mighty and upright, majestic and domineering. With the holy robe on his body, he can really be said to be proud of the crowd and dominate the world.
Bai Guang hurriedly stepped forward and helped them up one by one.
Only then did the four of them see the white light's faces, and one by one they suddenly realized, and they thanked them again and again.
Bai Guang told them to wait here for a while, and then went to the Spirit Stone Hall to get a red gem, and then the five of them rode away on the clouds.
"Young man, I don't know what to call you......" asked Bai Guang, the elegant-looking of the four generals.
"My name is Bai Guang!
"We are the four protectors of the Old Demon Emperor Tongyuan, the east of the town, the west of the town, the south of the town and the north of the town. The four of them introduced themselves to Bai Guangyi one by one. The elegant-looking one is called Zhendong, the bearded one is Zhenxi, and the south and north of Zhennan are all big men with a nine-foot-long body and a sturdy body, and these four people are still sworn brothers.
Speaking of this, Bai Guang remembered the four gods of wind, rain, thunder and lightning. For a moment, Bai Guang was still distracted.
Zhenxi seemed to see something, he coughed dryly, and opened the conversation box by the way, "I said young man, what is your relationship with the Red Fire Demon? He's a very difficult person to get along with!"
"Oh?" Bai Guang came back to his senses, he couldn't believe that the Red Fire Demon was actually such an evaluation here in the Four Great Protectors. "It's okay with me, I'm friends!"
Bai Guang looked up and found that the four of them were frowning at the same time. He could think if this Red Fire Demon had just said something to the four of them. Now that I think about it, it seems stranger and stranger. "Four, can you tell me something about the Demon Emperor?"
Zhendong laughed, "What do you want to know, young man?"
"Whatever, like this robe......"
The four of them were speechless, and they didn't know what to tell him. For a moment, the atmosphere became awkward.
After a long while, Bai Guang asked, "A few people are always divided, and if we continue like this, we don't understand each other, but we can't be friends." β
Zhendong pondered for a moment before he spoke, "Young man, let's be honest, today, the four of us gathered in the Demon Clan Temple from the residence to celebrate the birthday of the Red Fire Demon. He will soon be 17,000 years old, and the Demon Emperor of my Demon Realm, Tongyuan, has been falling for thousands of years. Since him, the position of the Demon Emperor has been vacant, and it was originally the eldest son of the Demon Emperor, Nuyan Demon, who inherited his father's will and ascended to the throne. However, this angry rock demon is an old stubborn, unwilling to take on this heavy responsibility. It is said that the Demon Emperor has three sons, and the second son, the Ice Spirit Demon, is a geek, and he only thinks about how to improve his skills, and he ignores other things. Let's say that the Spirit Stone Hall was built by him. He advocates strengthening himself, so he just wants to be invincible in the world, and he has always refused the position of this demon emperor. In the end, only the Red Fire Demon remained, and this old boy liked to roam freely between heaven and earth. The old demon queen didn't allow him to let go of the position of the demon emperor like His Royal Highness and Second Highness. The old demon queen once announced that when she was 17,000 years old, it would be the day he ascended to the throne. β
The four of you told Bai Guang what they could say to the outside world, and they didn't dare to mention anything else that shouldn't be said.
"This old boy was originally a talent, and I don't know how to do it, and he has not been able to break through his own cultivation of fire demon skills, resulting in his ugly appearance of not being a human being or a ghost. β
"Our four Dharma protectors used to be quite majestic, just under one person and above ten thousand. Alas, the Demon Emperor has fallen, and my four brothers have nowhere to go, and the old Demon Queen sees that the four of us have followed the Demon Emperor for many years, and she can't bear to let us go. She arranged for me to wait in the Qili Mountains to guard the border. If it weren't for the Red Fire Demon's birthday this time, it would not be easy for the four of my brothers to get together. β
"This robe you are wearing is extraordinary, this is the Demon Emperor's holy robe, and it has been placed in front of the statue of the Demon Emperor to worship! It can be seen that the relationship between the two of you is extraordinary, and you are ......"
Speaking of this, the four of them suddenly fell silent, as if they had said something forbidden. Bai Guang hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with me?"
"You look like a talent!The Red Fire Demon may want to take you as an apprentice!" explained Zhendong again and again.
Obviously, Bai Guang heard that he was deliberately avoiding the topic, but if people don't tell themselves, there must be someone's truth, and Bai Guang is not good at asking again, he continued to ask about the holy robe.
"This robe is a token of the Demon Emperor, and when the Red Fire Demon ascends to the throne, he must wear it. β
"No wonder, as he was leaving, he told me that this robe would make the Emperor of Heaven give three points of courtesy. Bai Guang added.
"That old boy, alas......" Zhendong sighed.
"What's wrong?" asked Shiro-light.
"He said to the four of us, "Let us all protect you, and ask us to help you go and find your wife." He also reminded us again and again that the person who can wear the Demon Emperor's robe must be the one who can become the leader of the Demon Realm in the future. It's hard for us to refute anything, after all, in a few days, he will be the Demon Emperor. And the four of us may become his protectors again, and since we are entrusted by others, then we must be loyal to others. β
"Everyone, for your hard work!" Bai Guang bowed.
Seeing this, the four Dharma protectors were flattered, waved their hands again and again, and bowed back to the white light.
Bai Guang knew that the Red Fire Demon must have said something to them again, otherwise, how could the four great protectors of the Great Dharma, an existence above ten thousand people under one person, give such a big gift to a kid who has only cultivated for more than 2,000 years?!
"Who is better than the dragon demon of the four?" Bai Guang thought, maybe he would be able to confront the dragon clan. At that time, a fierce battle is inevitable, so it is better to master the strength of the four Dharma protectors around you first. At that time, even if it was really on the bar, it was not necessarily who suffered.
"It's just a dragon demon, the four of us work together, he's slightly inferior!" Zhen Xi snorted coldly, obviously not taking the dragon clan seriously.
"Young man, I see that you also have dragon veins on you, when the time comes, you can enter the forbidden land of the dragon clan and find the location of the dragon pool, maybe there will be an unexpected gain!"
"Dragons?" Bai Guang looked disdainful. "A rabble!"
"Young man, I advise you not to underestimate the dragon clan. Do you know that the dragons' wind, rain, thunder and lightning are famous all over the world. The dragon demon is also the ancestor of the dragon clan, except for the Heavenly Emperor and the Demon Emperor, they really don't take anyone seriously. β
"That's right, the four of me can join forces to repel it, not defeat it, if it's one-on-one, it's not enough for people to see. β
"Don't worry, if it's really time to confront the dragon clan, I will definitely find a perfect solution, try not to embarrass the four, and try not to let the four make a move......"
The four protectors were not embarrassed, and they actually let a junior excuse themselves. This hasn't met the dragon clan yet, if it does, wouldn't it make the kid Baiguang laugh to death.
"Young man, didn't the Red Fire Demon say it, let you rest assured and boldly do your own thing. The rest of the fighting, killing, and killing will be handed over to the four of us, and the Red Fire Demon has specially explained that he wants to take you back safely. β
"Yes, yes, the four of us haven't done it for a long time, and it's tens of thousands of years of cultivation. If you want to hit someone, just call the shots. β
Bai Guang laughed dryly, these four people are really interesting, originally thought that the demon world was a place of darkness, ugliness, and murder, but now, he really wants to polish his eyes and see the world.
