Chen Guo Palace, in a dim underground dark room.

The huge monster that closed its eyes and fell asleep soundly sensed the breath of the little emperor, and suddenly opened the huge eyes of the copper bell.

Those eyes carried an incomparably terrifying chill.

It just opened its eyes, and it frightened those Chen Guo dead guards who had killed countless people into retreating a few steps.

They were glared at by it, and their hearts and livers couldn't help but throb, very violently, as if they were about to go beyond their chests.

Some of the dead guards who killed less people were already weak and couldn't stand.

"Whew-"

The giant monster let out a breath of heat from its nose and ignored them.

The death guards were relieved to see the monster take its eyes away, and stabilized its embarrassed body.

And the little emperor, at this time, with the support of the old eunuch Li Ying, slowly walked down the dim stone staircase and came to this underground dark room.

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

When the dead guards saw the little emperor, they immediately knelt on one knee as if they had just been stared at by the huge monster, and bowed quietly with bated breath, not daring to be disrespectful in the slightest.

"Flat. ”

The little emperor didn't look at them much, but just lightly asked them to get up, and himself, went straight to the monster's cage and looked at it quietly.

Every day at this hour, he would come to this underground dark room to see it.

As the sharp blade in his hand that can help him sweep away all the countries, he never gets tired of looking at this monster, and he likes it more than his beautiful concubines who are like mutton fat and white jade.

Its claws will help him tear the throats of those who oppose it, and its teeth will help him bite off the heads of those who disobey.

Mortals have no talent, even if they are the emperor of a country, they can only work for life, but after one or two Jiazi, they will turn into a handful of loess.

It's fate!

But the little emperor doesn't believe in fate, as an emperor who crawled out of the sea of corpses and blood, he never believes in fate.

He knows that as long as he works hard, as long as he is ruthless enough, everything can be changed, even the same is true of Xianyuan.

He, a mortal with dull talent, can also ascend to the sky in one step.

The vast luck of the mortal world, the dragon vein that crisscrosses the world, is the cornerstone of his ascension to the sky.

And this monster was the mount that carried him to the cornerstone.

The little emperor looked at the monster like a hill in front of him, and his eyes were full of fanaticism.

Today, however, he suddenly noticed that it was different from the past.

It seems, there is something to say to yourself.

The little emperor frowned and said, "What do you want to say? Just say it, do you think that child is too big today?" It's okay, I'll ask them to catch some small and tender ones for you!"

"Roar—"

The monster rose from the ground, craned its neck and moved its limbs, and roared.

The little emperor stood so close to him that he could even smell the human flesh he had just eaten in the morning.

Through this roar, the monster conveyed its thoughts to the little emperor.

It is true that there is something to say to the little emperor.

"In the capital, there are some powerful characters, I don't want to expose myself, you let your people come back, you don't need to help me find food anymore! During this time, we don't do anything, wait quietly for months, wait for them to leave. ”

These were the words that the monster conveyed to the little emperor.

The fox launched a spell to cause fluctuations, which not only attracted the attention of the gray-clothed boy and Lin Xiuran, but also made the monster vigilant.

The monster lurked in this underground dark room, and sensed that there were powerful beings such as the gray-clothed boy and Lin Xiuran in the capital, and he didn't dare to act rashly for a while.

As an outsider to this world, it is actually very careful in every step it takes.

In the eyes of the little emperor, it is nothing more than a monster, a demon who loves to eat people.

But in fact, its identity is not so.

It's not a creature of this world, it's not a demon.

It comes from outside the territory, and it is an extraterritorial heavenly demon.

Unlike other extraterritorial demons who only know bloodthirsty killing, like locusts, it is full of intelligence, a natural leader, and an important person who directs how its own people kill.

Now it is not it, more precisely, not all of it.

In this world, it is nothing more than a doppelganger separated from the original body that is outside the territory.

It separates itself and transforms into a small beast, breaking into the world through the gap in time and space.

And the ultimate purpose of its trip was to destroy the mountain protection array that blocked them from entering this world, so that thousands of extraterritorial heavenly demons could break into this place and devour all living beings.

For this reason, it needs to lie dormant and grow in the human world, and only when it has the strength to destroy the mountain protection array will it make a move, destroy the array, and deal a fatal blow to the human race.

Until then, it needs to keep a low profile and lie dormant to avoid being discovered by the powerful of this world.

The little emperor was obviously surprised by this monster's words.

He knew very well the strength of this monster, and the only ones who could make it so jealous were those immortals of the Immortal Court.

It's just that those people are high above and rarely walk in the world.

The last time the little emperor saw the immortals of the Immortal Court, it was when he killed King Lao Fu and pacified the civil strife.

At that time, a beautiful woman like a fairy, the imperial sword flew to his palace from the sky, and coldly scolded him and his civil and military ministers: "Since you have fought enough, you will recuperate well in the future, treat the civilians well, if you still make waves, regardless of the people's livelihood, I will change the officials of the Chen State court, big and small, this emperor official, some people have to do!"

After the woman finished speaking, she turned into a streamer of light and flew away.

Leaving him and the civil and military ministers behind, stunned and silent!

That is, from that day on, the little emperor knew that his enemies were not only those mortal gate lord families, important ministers of the imperial court, but also the immortals of the immortal court who were far away from the nine heavens.

He is a proud enough person that he will never be reconciled to his fate and be pinched by others like this.

Even if that person is an immortal of the Immortal Court, it can't be!

The little emperor was well aware of the seriousness of the monster's words, he stiffened his face, nodded solemnly, and said, "I understand, I will do what you say." ”

However, in this way, his only interest in this monster is gone.

If he doesn't catch those immature children and give them to him, will it still help him kill those dissidents in the court?

The extraterritorial heavenly demon saw the little emperor's suspicions, and it roared again.

"Roar—"

Another thought reached the little emperor's mind.

"The Zhen Yuan you said, I will kill it for you, but I have to wait for those people to leave. However, in return, after that, you will also keep providing me with food, and I need more. ”

Its growth is accomplished by feeding young children.

When the little emperor heard this, he couldn't help but be a little ecstatic.

It was the first time the monster had made such a promise to him.

"Good!"

The little emperor was afraid that the monster would regret it, so he agreed.

When the Extraterritorial Heavenly Demon saw that the little emperor had agreed to this, he no longer paid attention to him.

It closed its eyes again, fell to the ground, and continued to sleep.

The little emperor turned around and said to Li Ying, the old eunuch who was waiting on the side: "Li Ying, you ordered to go down, from today onwards, the operation of abducting people has been canceled, and all the dead guards have been suspended." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”

The old eunuch Li Ying never dared to disobey the will of the little emperor, and nodded in agreement.

"Hahaha!

The little emperor suddenly burst out laughing and walked out of the dark room.

He laughed very suddenly, which scared Li Ying a lot, he, as a master, always makes nerves?

But he would never dare to say it.

He just stood by and followed his pace.

When he walks quickly, he walks faster, and when he walks slowly, he slows down.

The little emperor walked in the palace of Chen Guo, which belonged to him, and looked up at the sky. The sky has darkened, and the little emperor looks at the bright moon in the sky that is about to be round, and his heart is magnificent, as if the world is in his hands.

The old eunuch Li Ying followed him step by step, looking up at the bright moon, but all he thought about was how to continue to please this master tomorrow.

A master and a servant, as well as a team of guards, walked quickly through this palace, and I don't know which concubine's dormitory they were going to.

......

Under the same bright moon, Lin Xiuran was alone, sitting quietly in the courtyard, closing his eyes and recuperating.

In front of him, there was a basin of extremely clear water.

The water, under the reflection of the moonlight, looks like a very delicate and dazzling jade pendant.

Lin Xiuran's mouth was full of words.

The language is obscure, and I don't know where it came from.

A quarter of an hour later, Lin Xiuran finished chanting.

He suddenly closed his mouth, and at the same time made a seal in his hand, pointing at the basin of clear water and the void.

"Wow-"

The clear water in the wooden basin stirred and splashed out of the basin.

The basin full of clear water, for a moment, but only half a finger deep.

Lin Xiuran's strange behavior was not pretending to be a ghost, but doing "divination".

In the evening, in the ruined courtyard, he confirmed that the stone in the fox's hand was not a fragment of the Stone of the Question, and he had the meaning of divination.

The clue to the Asking Stone was broken, and he had to find it again through the secret method.

It's hard to find, and it's hard to snoop on.

But Lin Xiuran is not an ordinary human being, nor is he an ordinary immortal of the Immortal Court, he is the old turtle who has lived for tens of thousands of years.

He has a method of divination that no one else knows.

The spell that chanted at the clear water was.

Lin Xiuran opened his eyes and let out a long breath of turbid air, and then looked into the clear water.

In the wooden basin, only a few big characters floated in the clear water that was only half a finger deep.

The big character made Lin Xiuran's brows condense into the word "Sichuan", and he couldn't stretch it out for a long time.

"Wait!

......
