Chapter 2: The Eve of Dawn

"Tonight, it will be the last quiet night. ”

It was late at night, and Li Mucheng, Black Feather, Silver Moon Wolf, and Feng Qingxiao were sitting around a bonfire. Li Mucheng looked at the wine glass in his hand and muttered.

With a slight shake, the liquid in the glass spun into a whirlpool. He looked at the crackling bonfire and drank the liquid from the cup in one gulp.

"Win and lose. Let's have one last drink. If we can, when we win, we'll raise our glasses and drink!"

Feng Qingxiao said, raised her head and drank the wine in the cup.

The liquor is in the throat, like thousands of horses fighting between the lips. The scorching heat is a feeling that other things can't give.

Tonight, they have dispersed their cultivation and turned into mortals, drinking spirits together. The smell of wine was sultry, and in the blur, there seemed to be the sound of thousands of troops fighting in my ears.

"Mu Shuai, are you nervous?"

"Nervous, why can't you be nervous?" Li Mucheng looked at the wine glass in his hand and leaned lazily on Yinyue's body. And Yinyue fell asleep in a daze because she drank too much wine. So let Li Mucheng lie on his body.

"To be honest, I was a little nervous too. I've been the commander for countless years, but it's the first time I've participated in the Immortal Demon War. Feng Qingxiao seemed to be a little self-deprecating, "I don't know what the significance of me getting this position of commander." It's not as happy as when I was wandering the world. ”

"Yes, life is like a dream, and in the blink of an eye, fifty years have passed. When I think back to that scene when I was a child, it seems like yesterday. ”

With a sigh, Li Mucheng poured the liquor into his wine glass again and drank it all.

"Tomorrow's battle is the most critical battle in the Dieluo Mountains. If we are victorious, no one will dare to offend in the Dieluo Mountains. And we can also take a break and go to the Apocalypse Mountains or the Flood Wilderness to help. And if you lose......"

Li Mucheng rubbed his forehead. He drank too much wine, causing his eyes to be a little blurry.

Feng Qingxiao took his words, he put the wine glass on the ground, looked directly at Li Mucheng, and said heavily: "There is no if." In this battle, we can only win, not lose. ”

"yes, you can't be defeated. ”

Shaking his head, "I've only been here for a day, and it seems that the pressure is even greater than yours." If we are defeated, with the ability of the Five Princes, the Dieluo Mountain Range will definitely be lost. I'm afraid you can't even think about the consequences, right?"

"yes, I don't dare to think about it. I'm just a coward. Do you know why I didn't participate in the Immortal and Demon War 10,000 years ago?"

Suddenly, Feng Qingxiao burst out laughing. A shrill voice came from his throat, and he broke the glass like a mad roar.

"Hahaha, because I'm a fucking coward! I'm incompetent, in the face of the immortal army, I actually fled without a fight! If it weren't for this incident, who would want to be a dog under the hands of this fucking fifth prince? I'm a Yuan Infant, a spineless Yuan Infant like me, I'm afraid there is no one but me......, right?"

Tears flowed from Feng Qingxiao's eyes. In the blink of an eye, he restrained his presumptuous smile, and his expression gradually dimmed.

"But what can I choose? My son was only five years old at the time! If I had been in battle, my son would have no one to take care of. I can lose everything, but I can't lose my children. ”

"I'm such a coward, a coward in the truest sense of the word. But what can I do? My son is still dead. He will never come back! And I, too, have been charged with fleeing without a fight!"

Feng Qingxiao lay in the snow with a puff, and her hideous expression gradually calmed down. He turned his head to look at Li Mucheng, who was still drinking, and said weakly: "Mu Shuai, you are different. You are still young, but you have a bright future ahead of you. Tomorrow's battle, even if we all die here, you can't do anything. There are countless tomorrows waiting for you. ”

"Hehe, hahaha, it's really unfair. I gained nothing and lost so much. You're different. You have great creation, great opportunity. To put it bluntly, even if the Demon Realm can't hold it, as long as you live, sooner or later you can re-establish a new Demon Realm. ”

"Haha......"

Li Mucheng held the wine glass and laughed embarrassedly twice. He looked at Feng Qingxiao in a daze, and said in his mouth: "Do you think that what I have lost is less?"

"In order to cultivate, I lost my father. For the sake of power, I lost my master. For the sake of honor, I lost my lover, brother. In order to be strong, I lost myself. ”

Li Mucheng's eyes were also a little moist, "Can you know what it feels like to be treated as a pawn from the moment you were born? My cultivation path, from the very beginning, seems to have been set by someone. Around that bullshit Bai family, bullshit Si Shen Temple. It's all around them. I don't even know who the coffin is carrying in Kowloon! If I could, I'd rather not have everything now, just want to go back to the past. ”

"What's the point of being invincible, even if no one is beating? Is what I'm thinking really what I have now?"

"Big brother is right. ”

On the opposite side of Li Mucheng, Hei Yu struggled to sit up. He swallowed the warm wine that had been burned in front of the campfire, looking a little self-deprecating.

"The eldest brother did not hesitate to give up everything now for the sake of the past. After all, my eldest brother and I are just tied together by a soul contract. I'm just a slave to my eldest brother. ”

"Don't talk nonsense. Li Mucheng waved his hand. He seemed to feel that something was not quite right with Black Feather's expression, but now that he was drunk and dazed, he didn't take it to heart.

"Winter clothes, moon songs, these people, I don't know each other, where did the friendship come from? I was even hostile to my eldest brother before, and so was Yinyue. Let's talk about it, but it's just a pawn of you, big brother. Or a plaything. If you have used enough, or if you don't have it, you can just throw it away. The people that Big Brother really cares about are your brothers in the past. ”

The silver moon behind him squirmed. It seemed that lying in the snow made him feel cold.

"Whew, come over to the wolf master, don't run away...... Hey, hey, hey......"

Yinyue rolled over, lying on all fours on the ground, and said with a thought in her mouth. It looked as if he was having a sweet dream.

"Your dream of being an emperor, I will try my best to help you realize it. ”

Li Mucheng touched the cold silver hair on his body, lay on him weakly, and muttered.

I forgot when Silver Moon said it. He has always dreamed that he is the emperor. There are 3,000 beauties in the harem, and there is no shortage of all ethnic groups, and gold, silver and jewelry are all over the palace. And he built a wine pool in the palace and bathed in it every day.

"Big brother, do you know what your brother likes and what dreams he has?" Black Feather muttered, "I mean, those brothers before you came to the Demon Realm. ”

"Well, Zilei wants to be the most powerful person in the world. Jiangchen, just marry Bai Xue as his wife. Bai Xue has a big mind, she wants to become a heroine among women. As for Mu Ling, she just wants to live a quiet and leisurely life. ”

Li Mucheng stretched out his hand, and a quiet smile appeared on his face. It seems to be holding Mu Ling's hand. "Ling'er, you wait for me, when I find you, let's go to my hometown to live in seclusion, okay? The scenery is very nice and there are few people. You'll love it for sure. ”

"Big brother, do you know what I want?"

There was no echo for a long time. Hei Yu raised his head and looked at Li Mucheng.

A faint cry came in a regular way, as if he had fallen asleep.

"I'm thinking too much. ”

Black Feather smiled self-deprecatingly, and he looked at the crisp liquor in the wine glass, and drank it all again. In the pupils, there is a gloom that cannot be concealed.

"All I want is to be by your side, admire the moon and drink, and talk about life together. ”
