The black-gold flowing light came towards him with billowing power. Su Yuchen stretched out his hand and pinched seven inches of the flowing light. He couldn't help but smile as he watched it struggle in his hand.
"This little snake has a pretty keen sense of smell."
"hiss--"
The struggling little snake let out a threatening groan, and its vertical pupils exposed in the light mist stared at Su Yuchen unblinkingly: "Emperor's blood..."
Su Yuchen knew deep in his heart that he was able to determine his location because he smelled part of the imperial blood flowing through his body, not because he saw it.
Fortunately, the imperial family's attention is now focused on the Haijin tragedy, otherwise it would continue to lock in its position.
While thinking, Su Yuchen patted Xia Yushuang's back, then held her with one hand and held the seven inches of the light snake with the other and walked towards the house.
He could feel that this light and shadow snake was just the power of condensed magic power, and its true identity was probably hidden somewhere in the house.
Walking into the house, the interior has been frosted by Xia Yushuang's magic power, except for one place——
"you……"
The light snake wanted to speak, but Su Yuchen's hands were so strong that it couldn't make any more sound.
Walking to the wall of the room, Su Yuchen let go of Xia Yushuang's hand and punched the wall open without any hesitation.
What comes into view is the long circular staircase leading underground, which is bottomless.
But the most eye-catching thing is the monster skulls on the raised anti-slip devices on the handrails on both sides of the steps.
"At least tens of thousands." Xia Yushuang said softly: "They should all be descendants of the Demon King's blood, most of them in their early childhood."
"How did you get so many monsters with the blood of the Demon King?"
"Fish in troubled waters." Su Yuchen walked up the steps: "Many human countries participated in Amaterasu Co-Prosperity's [Lost Formation] plan, and they secretly cooperated with each other to capture many ungrown descendants of the Demon King. The imperial family must have swallowed a lot of goods in this process."
"In addition, by cooperating with Dai Ming, it won't be a problem for Dai Ming to help him steal the descendants of his mortal enemy."
After a pause, Su Yuchen continued: "And who knows when the imperial family started this plan?"
"After all, the imperial family has been in existence for two hundred and ninety-one years."
While talking, Su Yuchen continued to rub the seven inches of the light snake in his hand until it crushed several bones, causing it to let out bursts of mournful screams.
Xia Yushuang glanced at the light snake who had been tortured by her own man, and a smile flashed in her eyes.
No wonder he occasionally behaves a little rough in bed. It seems that there is a lot of violence hidden in his bones...
Thinking about it, Xia Yushuang was thoughtful, wondering what he would do when he completely let go?
"Let Xiyu try it first..." Xia Yushuang muttered.
"Xiyu?" Su Yuchen looked at her strangely: "What are Xiyu trying?"
"It's nothing." Xia Yushuang hugged his arm: "Don't leave, let's jump down directly."
"Hmm." The main reason why I took this circular step was to observe these skulls.
Su Yuchen discovered that the skull got bigger the further down it went. If he guessed correctly, the age of the skull of the monster got older - from infancy to maturity.
After climbing over the handrail of the stairs and jumping down, Su Yuchen looked at the skull passing by and his guess was right.
"The Demon King."
After quickly falling to the bottom and just standing firm, Su Yuchen looked at the real braised lion's head stuck on the pole in the center, with the flesh and blood not yet completely cut out.
"Yanqi." Su Yuchen narrowed his eyes, not forgetting that this was the first demon king he had killed.
But when I was in the Sky City, I should have wiped out all the traces with a fire...
Who transported it here? Also made into a lion head?
"You know?" Xia Yushuang glanced at him.
Su Yuchen leaned into her ear and spoke, while turning her around to look at the endless corridor in front of her.
Listening to Su Yuchen's voice, Xia Yushuang was thoughtful. Yuchen's identity when he came to the Sky City may be similar to the bloodline position when he came to the Jade Phoenix Snow Mountain.
So the real culprit is the imperial family, and the Demon Kingdom of Paradise invited Demon King Yanqi as an intermediary?
"The conditions for being able to mobilize Yan Qi may have something to do with this place." Su Yuchen said as he took a step forward: "I remember this direction should lead to the bottom of the sea, right?"
"Yes." Xia Yushuang nodded. Frost spread from the soles of her high heels, freezing even the space wherever it passed, let alone the barrier placed here.
The eyes of the light snake held in Su Yuchen's hand gradually turned frightened. It couldn't see clearly what the two men looked like, but it knew very well that this man was definitely a human being.
He was still a human being related to the imperial Zhao family, but how could such a human know such a powerful demon king?
And she's still a female devil... I've lived for thousands of years, why haven't I heard that there is such a female devil who is good at ice still alive in the world?
"Under the sea..."
Su Yuchen didn't waste any time and drove Xia Yushuang all the way. When he opened the last door, what he saw was a huge barrier that blocked the sea water.
Inside the barrier, corpses of monsters and humans piled up in mountains, mutilated and mutilated.
The smell of blood that hit her face was so strong that Xia Yushuang couldn't help but frown slightly. She didn't like such a dirty environment.
'The bones of ordinary humans. '
Su Yuchen lowered his head and looked at the corpse at his feet, frowning slightly. Why should ordinary men and women who don't even let go of their magic power be treated as food?
"Look over there." Xia Yushuang pointed forward.
Su Yuchen looked forward. Among the mountains of corpses and sea of blood, there was a blank area with a diameter of no more than five meters. There was a chair in the center of the blank area. There was a person sitting on the chair with his hands and feet chained to the armrests and chair legs. , the woman looking up at the dome of the barrier.
"Princess Xunyang Zhao Qiongzhen." Su Yuchen recognized this woman's identity at a glance.
"Is it her?" Suspense flashed in Xia Yushuang's eyes: "Did Liu Shu treat her like this, or was it an order from the imperial family?"
"The imperial family." Su Yuchen had no doubt about this. Guang Liushu, a prince-in-law, would never have the courage or strength to lock Zhao Qiongzhen in such a place!
After finishing his words, Su Yuchen looked at the soles of Zhao Qiongzhen's feet. With her as the center, black and gold magic patterns formed a huge magic circle and spread out, covering the entire underwater barrier.
Su Yuchen casually snapped his fingers, and clusters of beating flames appeared above the mountain of corpses and sea of blood. In an instant, they were scorching flames, burning all the flesh and blood and evaporating the sticky blood.
The full view of the magic circle came into view.
The black-gold magic circle was corroded with part of the blood. The blood gathered along the magic lines towards Zhao Qiongzhen, sank from the soles of her feet, and converged on her heart in a strange trajectory.
Tick, tick, tick.
Within the barrier that blocked out the sound of the seabed, the sound of water droplets dripping into the metal container could be clearly heard. Su Yuchen looked at Zhao Qiongzhen's fingers.
Between the skinny fingers, drops of golden blood dripped at an extremely slow frequency into two large round bowls on the ground, gathering into a small half bowl of golden blood.
Looking at this scene, Su Yuchen roughly estimated that with this frequency of blood dripping, it would take half a year to accumulate less than half a bowl.
"This magic array is not the main array." Xia Yushuang said softly: "This is an auxiliary magic array, which is used to supply the main array."
"Awesome." Su Yuchen praised as he took a step forward.
"Senior, I am a top student." Xia Yushuang snorted, "Now I have the ability to study for a Ph.D."
"As expected of my sister Yu Shuang." Su Yuchen came to Zhao Qiongzhen. Zhao Qiongzhen was still alive, but like a vegetative state.
The only value of her existence is to produce these golden blood, which contains dragon energy.
"Dragon..." Su Yuchen squatted down and looked at the golden blood in the container. The blood was very active. Through the surface of the blood, Su Yuchen heard the roar of the dragon.
The light snake in his hand struggled harder and harder, but it couldn't break free from Su Yuchen's hand, and it couldn't even open its mouth to say a word.
Su Yuchen stood up and looked at Zhao Qiongzhen's eyes that had lost all their sparkle. Her spiritual world had collapsed and she was like a walking corpse.
"Do you need me to save her?" Xia Yushuang asked, "Ask her some questions?"
Su Yuchen shook his head: "It doesn't matter whether she was voluntary or forced. It is a relief to be completely dead now."
"From both our standpoints, we are enemies."
"And..." Su Yuchen lifted the light snake in his hand: "You can also ask Mr. Demon King."
Guang She looked away and told Su Yuchen that she wouldn't say anything.
Su Yuchen smiled noncommittally: "You are here."
As soon as he finished speaking, he stamped his feet on the ground. Between the collapse of the mud and rocks, a huge coiling python appeared in the barrier.
Under the barrier, there is such a giant python with wings on its back.
At this time, the place where he and Xia Yushuang stepped was the head of the giant python.
The vertical pupil of the giant python is open, and there is a little golden blood contained in the pitch black. It is not difficult to guess that the vertical pupil can also be regarded as a container, and the golden blood stored in it will be extracted regularly.
"The corpse." Xia Yushuang said softly: "There is the breath of abyss energy, and... the breath of dragon."
Xia Yushuang, who had the power of the Ice Phoenix, clearly felt this.
"A magical beast with dragon blood, right?" Su Yuchen stepped on the scales on the soles of his feet: "There is no record of this demon king in the existing human literature."
"Yes." Xia Yushuang nodded: "It should be a magical beast that existed before humans were born."
"Perhaps he also died in the war where the Abyss clan destroyed the dragon species, but he was not completely dead." Su Yuchen looked at the light snake in front of him: "You are him."
"It's a tough life to live till now with a trace of your soul, but I guess someone is helping you." Su Yuchen smiled slightly: "I guess the devil who arranged this magic circle is helping you, that is, the magic circle. The demon king is hidden in the main formation."
"Maybe there is really a dragon alive in the world." Su Yuchen tilted his head and looked at Xia Yushuang and said softly.
After the words fell, Su Yuchen let go of the light snake. The light snake almost wanted to escape from here without hesitation, but not to mention that it was not the opponent of Su Yuchen and Xia Yushuang at its peak. How could a wisp of its remaining soul escape now? Out of their Wuzhishan?
boom!
The light snake that hit the frost barrier was dizzy for a while, staring at Su Yuchen and Xia Yushuang. It couldn't see their faces clearly.
"You don't have much Zhao blood in your body. It's not even as good as a branch of the Zhao family. King Chang'an? King Dingnan? Or are you the heir of other kings with different surnames?"
"It's not important." Su Yuchen looked at it: "The reason for eating king-blooded monsters is for their bloodline, and for eating ordinary people in Xuanqing, it is for the so-called dragon energy and national destiny."
"It is said that the founding emperor of the Zhao family received a strange connection from the ruins and thought he had some connection with the dragon. However, the dragon's state may be similar to yours now. It wanted to be resurrected, so it cooperated with the imperial family."
At this point, Su Yuchen narrowed his eyes: "Perhaps the dynasty before the Zhao family began to cooperate with that dragon, so the humans living in this land have always used the dragon as a totem."
"If the destiny of the country is related to dragon energy, then the decline of the old dynasty led to the decline of dragon energy, and the new dynasty can make the dragon energy surge, so there was a change of dynasties."
"It has been two hundred and ninety-one years since the Xuanqing Empire, but the dragon energy leaked from the imperial palace has disappeared... probably because it has reached the final stage."
Su Yuchen turned to look at the container next to Zhao Qiongzhen: "Whether you are a magician or an ordinary person, as long as you have the blood of this country, you can nourish dragon energy to a certain extent."
"When you have people, you have a family, and then you have a country, and the country protects its people..." Su Yuchen breathed out lightly: "The 'pilgrimage' ceremony performed by the Zhao family every year is actually a sacrificial ceremony. Sacrifice the monsters and people, and offer the blood produced to the dragon... There are more than one place like this!"
"Of course the above are all my guesses." Su Yuchen looked at the light snake: "How much do you think I guessed right?"
Guang She stared at Su Yuchen without saying anything.
Su Yuchen didn't care and continued: "Because imperial princesses and princes like Zhao Qiongzhen carry dragon energy, they can extract dragon energy from ordinary people."
"The blood of imperial families like Zhao Qiongzhen is actually a kind of filter."
"And you." Su Yuchen looked at the light snake: "There should be more than one corpse of a demon king like you with dragon blood. The reason why you are still needed is because the imperial family is human and dragons are the strongest in the world. The human body cannot withstand too much dragon energy from large monsters, so we need you monsters with dragon bloodline to help the imperial blood bear the powerful energy from the king-blood monsters."
"So it's a transformer."
Su Yuchen laughed: "No wonder the imperial family is not in a hurry even though the empire is getting late. It turns out that they have such a backing."
"After the dragon was resurrected, the imperial family helped it continue to manage this land. Who dares to resist?"
"The dragon is alive, and Zhao will become the emperor of the world forever... wonderful." Su Yuchen nodded affirmatively: "If it were me, I would cooperate with the dragon like this."
"Submitting yourself at the feet of a dragon is indeed not a shameful thing."
The light snake remained silent, but Su Yuchen was not in a hurry, he already had a way to make it speak.
"Just like me." Su Yuchen looked at the light snake: "I'm almost the same as you."
Light Snake's eyes moved: "What do you mean?"
Su Yuchen walked aside, introduced Xia Yushuang with his hands, "I surrender to her!"
Xia Yushuang glanced at him, and in the next second she tacitly released the energy inherited from the ice phoenix. The shadow of the ice phoenix appeared behind itself, spreading its wings and soaring, showing the power of the king of birds.
Guang She's eyes widened, and Su Yuchen smiled brightly.
The dragon species and the phoenix species are equal existences. It surrenders to the last dragon, and it surrenders to the last phoenix.
They are in the same camp.
Let’s see if he can still open his mouth and tell the truth!
