83.The Edge of Heaven (II)
Ye Yao pierced through the bubble and swam to the dragon's head of the candle flame.
The crimson dragon scales are as hard as armor, and the dragon whiskers that curl up nine paths float in the water, all of which are traces of his time.
At this time, he was bound by heavy iron chains, and suppressed by a powerful forbidden spell, and the cause was unusual.
Although Candle Yan had her eyes open, she did not react to the light in her hand.
"Little girl, you're also a water tribe?" his ears moved.
He couldn't see a glimmer of light, so it was no wonder he reacted so keenly to other movements in the water.
"Barely so. Ye Yao replied.
Raised by the aquarium since childhood, even a pigeon has already been raised as a water bird.
"Senior, why are you trapped here? According to the General History of the Six Realms, after you led the Divine Dragon Clan to ascend to the Nine Heavens, you retreated and disappeared. She asked.
Candle Yan shook the dragon's head, "The years have passed, the vicissitudes of life, and there is still anyone who remembers the old man?"
Ye Yao hurriedly said: "You are the hero of the Heavenly Clan, don't dare to forget each other in the Six Realms!"
"Hero? hahaha-"
Candle Yan let out an indescribable laugh, and there was an undercurrent of water around him.
Ye Yao barely managed to hold her ground, hovering in front of him.
"It's true! In all the history books of the Six Realms, you are a great hero with a great reputation!"
The laughter stopped abruptly, and Candle Yan suddenly asked, "What year is it now?"
"Three hundred and twelfth years of Tianyuan. Honghua Emperor ...... It has long been doomed. Ye Yao replied.
After thinking about it, she added, "It has been more than 168,000 years since the Divine Dragon Clan ascended to the Nine Heavens. After Emperor Honghua, the Celestial Clan went through several Heavenly Emperors of Mocheng, Mingsu, Jade Dynasty, and Tianqi. The phoenix fell into the demon, and the divine dragon was already the only celestial clan. The current Emperor of Heaven is the great-great-grandson of Emperor Honghua, the Emperor of the Imperial Pole. ”
"It's been 160,000 years?! The old man has survived to this day, and Honghua is ...... He's dead!"
Candle Yan raised his head and let out a mournful roar. The aftermath echoed in the water for a long time.
The dragon's mourning, the death has passed.
Looking at this dragon ancestor who was perhaps the oldest in the world, Ye Yao's heart swelled with indescribable sadness and melancholy.
......
The water flow gradually slowed, and Meng Xu'an pushed the blister to move to the faucet.
"Yeyao, did you ask about the way?" he shouted, knocking on the wall of water.
Ye Yao came back to her senses, and then she remembered what was going on.
"Senior, we had some misunderstandings in the Netherworld, and we accidentally broke into this place by mistake. Although the spiritual power on your body is sealed, it can't help you get out of trouble for the time being, but as long as you can get out of here, you must find a way to go to Heaven and ask His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor to send rescue!"
She stepped on the prism and bowed down.
Although the other party can't see it, it is the greatest respect that the water tribe has for the elders.
The faucet moved a few points to pinpoint her position.
"Little girl, this well is filled with polar cold water, and a thousand huge stones are sealed on the top. It was nothing, but there was a forbidden spell that sealed all mana. Unless you are born with divine power, you will definitely not be able to get out. ”
Ye Yao glanced at her feet, there was a small point of light where it came from, it should be the place where the bottom of the deep well meets the netherworld.
"Do you want to go back to the Nether?" she gritted her teeth.
"There's no going back——, that road is also a dead end. You can only get in, not out. Otherwise, the old man would have been here for so long, and he would have passed on the news a long time ago. Candle Yan's words cut off her hopes.
Are you going to be stuck here forever?
Xue Li can't find her, wouldn't she want to demolish Sheng Jing!
Seeing that she didn't speak, Candle Yan smiled and said, "The old man has been here alone for too long. It's nice to have someone to accompany you——, it's very good!"
He was happy, Ye Yao couldn't laugh at it. Sit on a prism and meditate with your chin propped up.
"Senior, is there really nothing you can do? You hear me, there's a mortal here. I can live here like you, but he's going to eat. Mortals, if you go crazy with hunger, you can eat everything. Among the various recipes in the world, the best is dragon liver and phoenix marrow......" She babbled and thought, trying to find some reason to ask Candle Yan to help.
"You little girl, how dare you threaten the old man......?! Phoenix pith ...... Hahaha, cough-cough-cough-" Candle Yan laughed a few times and immediately coughed.
Ye Yao could clearly see that a few bloodshots were spilling out of his mouth.
"Senior, what's wrong with you?!" she stepped forward, reaching out to get a glimpse of his breath.
Candle Yan turned his head away and sighed: "Life is not long, and the time to be robbed may be approaching." ”
A god said that his life was short, and the time could be long or short, not to mention that there were still more than 100 years to survive.
"You ......," Ye Yao sighed.
Soon after, Meng Xu'an will die of old age, and Candle Yan will also die, how will she spend her time here alone?
Across the wall of water, I saw that she was sitting still.
Meng Xu'an knocked and shouted again: "How is it?!"
Ye Yao was full of sorrow, and she really didn't bother to pay attention to him.
"Whoa—"
The candle in front of him suddenly raised his head, pulling the chain and suddenly tightened.
"It's not completely impossible...... he said.
"What?!" Ye Yao cheered up.
"Kill the old man. Candle Yan replied.
Ye Yao's face fell, "What are you kidding?!"
Candle Yan's breath sank, and he said solemnly: "The forbidden spell here is set for the old man. As soon as the old man dies, it will disappear naturally, and your spiritual power will be restored. Break the pressure on the top, and you can leave with the mortals. ”
Another beam of light descended from the top, slowly slicing through.
The beam of light illuminated the cold water suspended by the moss, shone on the blister of Meng Xu'an's body, and then on Ye Yao's body, on the huge dragon head...... Finally slowly disappears.
For a long time, there was not a sound between the three of them.
"Little girl, it's easy to kill the old man...... Just pull out the scales. Candle Yan said slowly.
"I know. Ye Yao didn't move.
"Let's do it, then. Candle Yan suddenly came to her spirit and urged her.
"No—"
Ye Yao raised her head, her sideburns swaying with the water.
"I can wait. She said.
Wait for him to die?!
Candle Yan was a little surprised, "Do you know how long it will take? ”
Looking at Meng Xu'an in the blister, Ye Yao said word by word: "All beings are equal, and every life is equally important. If we kill you, we can regain our freedom, then how can we be safe for the rest of our lives? If we can't have peace of mind, what difference does it make if we are?"
"Oh, so open-minded at such a young age, I wonder if the mortals who are traveling with you think the same way?"
Candle Yan spit out a bubble in his mouth and wrapped his dragon head in it with Ye Yao and Meng Xu'an.
The small blister "snapped-" and shattered, and Meng Xu'an fell on the prism.
"Mortal——, as long as the old man dies, the little girl can take you out of here. To kill the old man, you only need to pull out the reverse scales. ”
Candleflame lifted her neck, revealing the only white scale in the red scales.
