Tang Ling hesitated for a while, and was about to speak.

The white hair and cold eyes had already taken the first step to intercept his words: "You just need to answer me, yes? or not?"

"Yes. ”

replied indifferently, and was decisive beyond Jiutian's expectations, and also made the white-haired killing god who was called "a thousand thoughts and a thousand slashes" by the world stunned on the spot. It's just that before she could speak again, Tang Ling raised her hand and tapped the mask on her face with her fingers: "Don't worry, this mask can temporarily delay the speed of the Lock Spirit Pattern, at least for the next few years, I will still be the wind chill of the Blood Sea Peerless Shadow Hall." ”

As he spoke, the gray mask actually flashed with the origin light of the six clans, and he sighed for nine days.

This seemingly rough mask was actually the Chaos Devouring Array set up by Tang Ling, which was used to absorb the continuously growing Origin Qi of the Lock Spirit Pattern, and to delay its counter-devouring speed. Although this is not a long-term solution, according to Tang Ling's words, it can indeed allow him to maintain the status quo, and he will not collapse within a few years.

His eyes were fixed on the mask that could not show his expression, and Jiutian felt a sour feeling in his heart for a while: "Why did you do such a meaningless thing?"

"Meaningless?" Tang Ling repeated these four words, "Probably in your heart, if I go back, it will just be a new form and a ban that will not eat you." In time, I will be able to return to this world in my present appearance and identity, right? If so, I can only say that you do not understand what this skin means to me now. ”

Jiutian's gaze turned to the left side of Tang Ling's heart: "Just because of a mere rue flower?"

"It seems that you know a lot about me. ”

"My relationship with Yun'er is beyond your imagination. Jiutian hesitated for a while, and then said, "The reshaping of your form means that your body will now be reduced to nothingness, including the 'heart' that you use to fill the emptiness in your heart. ”

"In that case, you should agree with my reason for holding on. Tang Ling was gloomy, "I have lost her now, and I should keep everything related to her as much as possible." ”

"That's why I'm the deputy hall master of this Shadow Hall. Jiutian turned around to face the night scene outside the window, so as not to let Tang Ling find his expression at the moment, "I want to come to Cheng Youlu It seems that I have something to discuss with you today, you might as well inform me as well, and see if there is anything that can be effective with 'One Thought Thousand Slashes'?"

Jiutian was no longer aggressive, and Tang Ling somehow felt an inexplicable relief in his heart. After taking a long breath, he said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that the imperial court plans to select the new three statues from the current major forces to replace the vacancies in the Blood Sea and the Underworld." ”

"Oh, haven't they learned a lesson from the underworld?" Jiutian sneered, his face full of disdain, "Or is the destruction caused by the underworld still not enough to make them feel uneasy?"

"It's not enough. ”

Although the underworld rebelled against the imperial court, what he did was only to carry out actions against the Blood Sea and Qixia Castle. In the eyes of others, the Blood Sea and the Underworld have been in conflict for many years, and they have long been incompatible, and Qixia Fort has a grudge against Qin Jingsheng to kill his father, so all kinds of actions in the Underworld are reasonable. And Yang Guozhong, who used to be the backer of the underworld, excused the underworld many times with words such as "young and vigorous", until Qin Jingsheng beheaded the Qin Cha who went to persuade him under the sword, and finally confirmed the fact of rebellion. However, before the Sea of Blood and Qixia Castle were destroyed in the underworld, and the real turmoil side, Tang Ling took the Absolute Shadow Hall to slaughter them. One of these three statues has not yet shown its fangs, and it has not had time to cause damage to the Li family dynasty and the people of the world before it can be destroyed, although it has avoided a bloody storm, but it has not let the officials of the court see where its crisis lies.

"The sea of blood is loyal to the imperial court, but it is the relationship between you and Cheng Yanjin who supports and supervises the future. The Underworld and Qixia Fort are based on profit, and their loyalty can be imagined, and now if they want to elect a replacement, it can only be said that their efforts are in vain. ”

Jiutian's words were thorny, and his face was full of disdain for the re-election of the "new three honors", Tang Ling did not debate with her, and sighed: "Your evaluation does have a certain truth, but they need to elect a substitute after all to deter the forces of the rivers and lakes, such a decision cannot be said to be completely meaningless." ”

Hearing Tang Ling's helpless tone, Jiutian sneered again: "Among the three deities, the sea of blood retreats, and the underworld is destroyed, isn't there still a Qixia Fort? Could it be that without Zhang Jin, Duan Huanshan will not be able to deter the world's heroes?"

He really didn't have that ability. Tang Ling shook his head, "What's more, if the Qixiabao family is really dominant, it is not something that the officials of the DPRK and China are happy to see." ”

"Because behind Qixia Fort, there is An Lushan, the envoy of the three provinces?"

Tang Ling stopped talking, and in silence, as if he was thinking about something, he spoke again and ended the topic: "The election of the three respects will be scheduled for next month, and you can go with me at that time." ”

"You-"

Ignoring the nine days of protest, the words under the mask were thoughtful: "Maybe we can find a clue about the Heng clan from it." ”

Hearing Tang Ling being so persistent, Jiutian was also helpless, with a cold snort, the white-haired pretty figure had disappeared in front of Tang Ling, and there was only a thin voice left in the house, sitting alone like a statue.

The bloody case of Liu Renyang's family spread all over the city before noon the next day, as Tang Ling thought, after knowing that the bully in the perennial fish and meat neighborhood was cut off, the neighbors mostly celebrated with their crowns, and did not pay much attention to whether the perpetrator was for wealth or righteousness. On the contrary, it was the people in the official mansion who knew the inside story, and after learning that this time it was the handiwork of the Blood Sea Shadow Hall, they only pretended to investigate for a few days and then gave up, allowing this big family with a little reputation to disappear.

Although he had already retired, the sea of blood was one of the three former deities, and what kind of courage did the ordinary people in the government have to provoke? Not to mention that a behemoth like the underworld could not hold up for a day in front of the True Murder Shadow Hall, the local government naturally did not dare to ask for trouble, and really pursued the sea of blood, so they had to cooperate with the rhetoric and designate Liu Renyang's family as the "remnants of the underworld" and report it to the imperial court.

When the aftermath gradually subsided, Tang Ling had already set foot in Chang'an again with Jiutian.

At the beginning, the imperial court promoted the status of the three deities, and indeed used its prestige and strength to deter the rivers and lakes. However, with the withdrawal of the sea of blood and the destruction of the underworld, the three major forces have gone to the second, so Emperor Xuanzong Li Longji, after discussing with the Chinese military officials of the DPRK for a long time, then issued an order to inform the world that suitable objects should be selected among the various sects of the rivers and lakes to replace the current vacancy of the three statues. It is said that when this news first came out, it had already caused an uproar in the rivers and lakes, and all the famous families in the world were eager to try, hoping to gain the favor of the imperial court and achieve immortality from then on. However, before they could truly show their strength and become famous, thirty percent of the invited forces had already been slaughtered by the Shadow Hall with the title of "Remnant of the Underworld". Therefore, in the past few months, there has been a lot of noise in the rivers and lakes, and everyone is worried, for fear that they will be targeted by the "Blood Sea Killing God" if they are not careful.
