Chapter 20: A Little Parting (Part II)

Previous Chapter

In the midst of the rumors, the coronation ceremony of the witch cult came as scheduled.

This was the first time after the founding of Great Chu, and when the previous Great Witch Zhu Tang Yan took over the Wujiao, the Metaverse was still under the rule of Great Qin.

Therefore, despite the recent rebellions in the whole country and the turmoil of the government and the opposition, the plain Chu Emperor Xiang Lin still ignored the advice of his ministers and personally drove to Lingshan to attend the ceremony.

For a time, at the foot of Ling Mountain, the pure water sprinkled the road with flowers and paved the road, and tens of thousands of Great Chu forbidden troops and witch sect troops protected the front and back of the mountain tightly and impermeable, lest there be a little more chaos.

But the heavens are not beautiful, and on the day of the coronation ceremony, a light rain fell on Lingshan.

Ji Chengche did not follow Xiang Lin's brigade to the mountain, he stayed in the Zhangwu Emperor's Mausoleum for another day, and sent a bouquet of flowers to Xiang Yi and Concubine Yu, before leaving quietly with Wang Rou.

One day earlier, the Xuanyuan Demon Lord had already set off and would be waiting for him in the Southern Wilderness for the final handover.

There, too, there is a coronation ceremony waiting for Ji Chengche.

Liu Fenglan also returned to the East China Sea, he wanted to see his granddaughter again, and then went to the Northern Wilderness Ice Plain with the Xuanyuan Demon Lord.

An era is coming to an end, and an era is about to begin.

The same ups and downs, but there will be different wonderful.

Ji Chengche came to the foot of Lingshan and was not in a hurry to climb the mountain, but he came to the tavern where he fought with Xiang Lin last time.

There, Lin Yin and Hai Mingyue were already waiting for each other.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Ji Chengche changed his appearance and sat down at the table where he drank last time.

Lin Yin and Hai Mingyue sat opposite him, and there was also the Dragon Boat Festival that was ready to accompany him to the Southern Wilderness.

The five of them gathered around a table and called for a glass of food and a drink.

Hai Mingyue asked, "Chengqing, do you really plan to go to the Southern Wilderness to be the Demon Emperor?"

Fortunately, the Dragon Boat Festival has secretly cast an enchantment to block everyone's voices, otherwise with this girl's words, I don't know how many tables will be overturned.

Ji Chengche smiled and said, "This glass of wine should be regarded as your congratulations to me." ”

Hai Mingyue is still open-mouthed, and she doesn't care about the Dragon Boat Festival and sits next to her, and says with a grin: "What is there to be a demon emperor? If you really want to be the emperor, it is better to go back to the heavenly capital, let's grab the dragon chair of the big man and sit down, and keep it more majestic than this!"

Ji Chengche smiled and said, "Although I have half of the blood of the Immortal Clan, I am still a Demon Clan in the eyes of the world. ”

Hai Mingyue said disappointedly: "Then you won't change your mind." But I don't want to be enemies in the future. ”

Lin Yin said lightly: "No." ”

Hai Mingyue was surprised: "Why?"

Lin Yin didn't answer, and Hai Mingyue felt more and more confused, not knowing where his confidence came from.

Ji Chengche smiled and said, "Because I don't dare." There really will be a day when you don't wait for you to come to the door with a sword, this guy Lin Yin will come to me desperately. ”

Hai Mingyue snorted and laughed, and peeked at the wood beside her sweetly in her heart.

Lin Yin didn't laugh and said, "I wanted to beat you up, but for the sake of your treat today, I will make a note of it first." ”

Ji Cheng said: "Is it because I went to the Southern Wilderness?"

"That's not a problem. Aren't you my junior brother if you become the Demon Emperor?" Lin Yin said disapprerovingly: "But you went to arrest Yan Kui and didn't greet me, you owe a beating." ”

Ji Chengche said with a bitter face: "Then you can't blame me, who knew that the Kui would appear in the Zhangwu Emperor's Mausoleum? There is another very important thingβ€”β€”"

He said solemnly: "Although you have eaten dry food for a year or two more than me, I am the first to start after all." So I'm a senior brother, you're a junior brother, and this can't change for thousands of years. ”

Lin Yin sneered, and just as he wanted to speak, he heard Wang Rou say: "Yes, just like I don't call him Brother Chengqing?"

Everyone laughed dumbly, and even Lin Yin, who had never been smiling, couldn't help but smile at the corner of his lips, and said: "You didn't kill Kui, but handed it over to Xiang Lin to be imprisoned in the prison, which is very good, and it will not be difficult for the snow to fall." ”

Ji Chengche sighed and said, "You don't know how hard I endured, I almost cut off his head several times and sent it to my mother-in-law's grave to worship." But my mother-in-law may not like it, and the snow will definitely be uncomfortable. ”

Lin Yin agreed: "If you can think so, I will be relieved to go to the Southern Wilderness." ”

"Fuck off. Ji Chengche rolled his eyes at Lin Yin and said, "I don't feel at ease when you go back to the Northern Wilderness like this." ”

Lin Yin said casually: "It's okay, it just takes three or five more years." With the sharp cold, there will be no problem. ”

Hai Mingyue said: "Don't worry, I will go with Brother Lin." ”

Ji Chengche advised: "Miss Hai, you must keep an eye on him, this guy is not known to others, I don't know? I'm not around as a senior brother, so I have to bother you to help me take care of it. ”

"Get out. Lin Yin's words were concise and to the point.

This time, Ji Chengche didn't hold back, raised his glass and said, "Take care." ”

Lin Yin nodded and said, "You too." ”

The two clinked glasses lightly and drank them all.

Thinking that the two brothers will say goodbye today, and they don't know when and where the next time they meet, Hai Mingyue couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in her chest when she watched from the side, and there were tears in her eyes with a smile on the corner of her lips.

Suddenly, the wine table was quiet, and everyone was thinking about their own thoughts, only the innocent Wang Rou picked up the dishes she liked and stuffed them into her mouth.

I heard a big man at the next table say: "I really don't understand, there are rebels rebelling everywhere, and Your Majesty still has the heart to come to Lingshan." ”

Ji Chengche smiled at each other when he heard this, knowing that these drinkers were idlers who didn't have invitations but wanted to join in the fun.

An old man sitting opposite the big man reprimanded: "Ma Laosan, what do you know? If Your Majesty doesn't come, there will be something to see later." ”

The third horse was unconvinced and said, "What is there to see?"

The old man said angrily: "I won't use your pig brain to think about it, the more chaotic it is, the more you have to show that the Great Chu Court and the Witch Sect are close to each other, otherwise the rumors and rumors will not know what to panic about." ”

Ma Laosan was not angry when he was scolded, and said with a smile: "You old man has some truth in what he said." ”

A middle-aged woman next to him interjected: "What's the matter with that Ji Chengche, isn't he the prince of the Han Dynasty, how did he become the regent of our Great Chu?"

The old man snorted and said, "This is still not easy to explain, the two countries of Chu and Han have already spread, and this kid has fallen in love with the great priest of our witch sect." The so-called heroes are sad to pass the beauty pass, and they don't love the country and love the beauty. Da Chu is in trouble, the witch sect is in trouble, and he can't fight for his life? ”

Ji Chengche touched his nose and couldn't cry and laugh, Hai Mingyue had already laughed over there.

Ma Laosan was puzzled and said: "But the first emperor didn't just crown him as regent for this?"

The old man said proudly: "I don't understand, let me tell youβ€”I heard from friends in the palace that this is exactly the wisdom of the former emperor." As the saying goes, horses have no night grass and no fertilizer, and they just rely on the great priest to order Ji Chengqing to keep Lingshan okay at most, but he won't care about the affairs in the holy capital. Now that he is given the title of regent, he can't protect his own one-third of an acre of land like an old hen?"

Hai Mingyue was already smiling on the table, and the Dragon Boat Festival frowned and was ready to make a move to give these bastards some hardship.

Ji Chengche waved his hand and said, "Forget it, this old man is also quite cute." He couldn't help but smile bitterly as he spoke.

The crowd was not interested, so they got up and checked out and left.

Ji Chengche took Wang Rou's hand and walked out of the door of the tavern, and an ox cart stopped under a tree in the distance.

Wu Dazhui and Yuan Sanniang sat side by side in front of the car, and Shi Yifu wore a hat and a robe, like a farmer leading a horse and stood beside the car.

Ji Chengche stepped forward in a daze, and saluted the people in the ox cart: "The old man is going back?"

The ghost master's hoarse voice came from the ox cart and said, "It's time to go back." ”

Ji Chengche bowed again and said, "Chengche is here to see you off, the old man will go all the way." ”

Unexpectedly, the ghost master said, "I'll wait for you to go together." ”

Ji Cheng was stunned and said, "The old man may not know, I am going south today." ”

The ghost master smiled in the car and said, "Coincidentally, the old man is also preparing to go to the Southern Wilderness." ”

Ji Chengqing was stunned when he heard it, almost not believing his ears.

Seeing Ji Chengche stunned on the spot, the ghost master couldn't help but smile and said, "What, you're not welcome?"

Ji Chengche came to his senses, and was overjoyed and chuckled: "There are many companions on the road, that's the best." ”

Shi Yifu said: "It's not one, it's four." ”

At that moment, Ji Chengche and his entourage bid farewell to the ghost master for the time being, went up the mountain to participate in Tang Xueluo's coronation ceremony, and reunited at the foot of the mountain after the ceremony, and rushed to the Southern Wilderness together.

Ji Chengche held an umbrella, and Wang Rou followed him to the front of the Ten Thousand Saints Palace on the top of Lingshan Mountain, and the coronation ceremony was coming to an end.

The towering Wansheng Palace is crowded with people in front of it, and a hundred-step dragon and phoenix Chaoyang ladder separates the crowd from Tang Xueluo.

On the cloud platform at the end of the stairs, Tang Xueluo was dressed in a splendid white robe with gold brocade tattoos, holding the anti-heaven destiny disk and the staff that symbolized the supreme authority of the witch sect, standing tall, looking down on the thousands of sects under the stage.

At this moment, she is like a holy fairy and a graceful empress, transcendent and unearthly, without half of the breath of fireworks in the world.

The rain sprinkled down and turned into a colorful rainbow behind her, like a cloak woven from the rain flowers.

Koi Carp, Bright Moon Valley, Eight Elders......

More than 100 Witch Cult elders knelt down on the long ladder at her feet, reverently chanting their pledges and swearing allegiance.

Tang Xueluo's gaze crossed them, searching in the boundless sea of people, as if he was looking for someone.

At that end, Ji Chengche stood silently in the depths of the noisy and boiling sea of people, looking at the peerless beauty on the cloud platform, and felt that she was so far away from him in a trance.

"Bang bang bang-"

Colorful fireworks take to the skies and unleash a dazzling array of colours.

"She's so beautiful, like a fairy in the sky. Wang Rou held Ji Cheng's hand and said, with a hint of envy in her eyes.

"yes. Ji Chengche held the umbrella and didn't know what to do.

"But why do I think she's lonely?"

"Oh?"

"There were so many people, and she was standing so tall alone, and she didn't look happy at all. ”

"yes. Ji Chengche looked at Tang Xueluo's unreal face, and said in response emptyly.

In an instant, Tang Xueluo's gaze found him.

Finally, the eyes of the two converged in the empty drizzle of Lingshan.

So, he smiled at her, with the cold warmth of the rain.

A smile also appeared on her surprised face, as if she had lit up the fireworks in the sky, which was a farewell to worry and loneliness in the rain.

"Let's go. After staring deeply at Tang Xueluo for the last time, Ji Chengche took a sharp breath and turned around, leading Wang Rou to walk out of the crowd.

"Aren't you saying goodbye?" Wang Rou was still turning her head to watch.

"I've already said goodbye to her. Ji Chengche couldn't help but look back, and said with a smile: "Let's go, we also have our own things to do." ”

"Yes, we're going to the Southern Wilderness!" Wang Rou jumped up at the thought of being about to travel far away.

"Well, go to the Southern Wilderness. Ji Chengche held an umbrella and trekked in the sea of people step by step, and his chest was suddenly full of pride, but he couldn't dilute the melancholy rippling in his heart.

Tang Xueluo's bright eyes suddenly dimmed, and he watched the back fade away.

At the feet, thousands of worshippers worship the mountain and the tsunami.

But she couldn't hear or see anything, just watched her world go away in the rain and the sea of people.

A crystal teardrop overflowed the corner of his eye, shining beautifully in the light of the fireworks, and quietly slid down the flawless jade cheeks and disappeared.

I don't know where it starts, I don't know where it ends.

11.11 Double Stick Day, coincidentally, it was on this day that the release of a large paragraph of "The King of the Holy Realm" ended. Ji Chengche took Wang Rou away, he had his own last resort and mission, Tang Xue fell after experiencing the double torture of family affection and love, as if he also chose to dedicate his life to the witch cult, the entanglement and reluctance of his eyes at that moment may be the past life and this life, the origin and the extinction.

May there be lovers in the world who will eventually become married, and will not have to suffer from parting!
