Xia Chongming watched the old man remain silent for a long time, the expression on his face gradually became twisted and ferocious, and he roared:
"Liar! You damn old liar!"
Xia Chongming couldn't accept this ending. He couldn't accept that the Nine-tailed Fox bloodline was obtained through the prince's self-sacrifice. There was no intrigue or despicableness during this period.
This does not conform to his worldview, nor does it conform to the values that have been accumulated through long-term experiences in the past. The more honorable the answer the old man gave, the more ugly and humble he appeared.
Xia Chongming was full of anger in his chest, and he could not pursue a dream all his life. The so-called ultimate answer to the so-called Taoist inaction was that the prince voluntarily sacrificed himself and used himself as firewood to light the way forward and let Xia Yu continue to move forward.
"Haha. Do you think the answer is surprising?"
The old man looked at the furious Xia Chongming, smiled and said, "Don't you know me well?"
The old man was born in peace and witnessed chaos. He saw countless soldiers marching forward one after another. Even when faced with the immortal formation, he stepped forward without hesitation. He used his life to carve out a safe road to obtain the magic weapon to kill demons and let Emperor Xia Yu shoot it. Kill the Ba snake that threatens Xia Yu's land.
After overcoming obstacles all the way, the old man deeply understood what his responsibilities were.
There was no Wusheng Emperor at that time. Xia Yu faced all kinds of tyrannical demons. The size of those demons could often cover the sky and cover the sun and was larger than the city, as well as the unpredictable inheritance methods of the clans and tribes.
The word responsibility runs through the first half of his life. Even if he is now a ghost cultivator, he still does his part.
He was guarding Xia Yu's cornerstone here, as well as accompanying his mother who fell into deep sleep.
Xia Chongming was clever at first and hid behind the golden door from the old man in the early stages. However, the old man noticed it later but did not make any announcement.
He even deliberately let him go to see Emperor Wu Sheng.
It is more cost-effective to subdue a cultivator who is proficient in evil magic and transcend the tribulation period than to directly kill and suppress him. Of course, this is because the old man knew the details of Xia Chong's name and took advantage of the situation.
Although Xia Chongming has now lost all his cultivation and his soul has become incomplete, it is not unsolvable.
It just takes some time. For the Xia Yu Dynasty, hundreds of years are just a blink of an eye.
The old man looked at Xia Chongming with a smile on his face.
………………
………………
In a different space in the Demon Suppression Department's warehouse, the old man brainwashed Xia Chongming with a smile on his face.
Above the Imperial City, Emperor Wusheng waved his long sleeves and issued an order: "Inform the Demon Suppressing Department, the Ministry of War, and the Minister of Punishment to prepare enough prison cages. The people of Nightmare Town do not want to let them finish the celebration in peace, and let them live alone. But tonight!”
"Do the ministers have different opinions?"
"none."
Faced with Emperor Wusheng's inquiry, no one from the imperial court, the royal family, or kings with different surnames had any opinions, or rather they did not dare to put forward any opinions.
There are some things that Wusheng Emperor doesn't care about, which means he has no intention of paying attention. Once he speaks, he must obey Wusheng Emperor's will no matter what happened in the past.
In the imperial court, there have always been matters involving officials and the Nightmare Town sect. The members of the Nightmare Town in the central state are very useful desperadoes. Some guys who cherish their wings can do things that are not convenient for them to show up. Let the people from Nightmare Town do it.
Even originless sins can be thrown at their heads.
Emperor Wusheng knew these things, but everything the officials did was beneficial to Xia Yu's interests.
Those who break laws and disciplines are recorded, fattened and then uprooted to enrich the national treasury.
"Kakaka"
After the officials answered, the space in front of them directly shattered into a space tunnel.
Xia Yu's Third Division, the King of Different Surnames, and the Successor Kings all parachuted directly into the Nightmare Town sect's hiding place through the space tunnel.
The Demon Suppressing Department, Punishment Department, and War Department, which were named, also began to be busy at this moment.
Emperor Wusheng stepped into the space passage in front of him and returned to the throne in the imperial city in a blink of an eye. He sat directly on the throne and looked at the monks from other sects:
"Today's martial arts performance is suspended, but it will be held as scheduled tomorrow."
"嘤——"
Emperor Wu Sheng had just finished speaking when Su Yan on her shoulder couldn't help but let out a mournful cry.
Emperor Wu Sheng turned around and took his seat in a cool manner, but Su Yan, who was lying on Emperor Wu Sheng's robe on his shoulders, was stabbed hard in the back by the angular throne behind him.
A curved edge hit Su Yan's buttocks covered with white fur.
Su Yan held back his words at first, but as Wusheng Emperor swayed, the tip of the hook was almost touching Su Yan's bell. Su Yan, who had been holding back, subconsciously let out a cry.
Emperor Wu Sheng, who heard Su Yan's scream, seemed to have noticed Su Yan's embarrassment. He reached out and pinched the back of his neck and carried him to the armrest of the throne. He put one hand on Su Yan's white back and squeezed. Su Yan froze and immediately leaned down to pretend to be the armrest of the throne.
The remaining monks and officials present couldn't help but cast strange glances at the white-furred fox on the throne.
Su Yan didn't say anything. After seeing Emperor Wusheng's expulsion order, other monks from the sect were not prepared to get involved in the dispute between the Xia Yu Dynasty and the Nightmare Sect.
Emperor Wusheng didn't pay attention to those things. He put his hand on Su Yan's back and stroked it, thinking about something.
"Are you losing color?"
But as Emperor Wusheng touched it, he found something was wrong with Su Yan's hand. Emperor Wusheng noticed that white floc appeared on the palm of his hand, which seemed to have fallen from fox fur.
With that said, Emperor Wusheng handed his hand to Su Yan.
"Reporting to your majesty, that is the gouache used by ordinary people to cover the official seal of Princess Wuxi on their buttocks."
When Su Yan saw Emperor Wu Sheng speaking, he seemed dissatisfied with the service of his hand warmer, so he immediately explained. At the same time, he sat up straight on the armrest, raised his front paws and wiped it on his white belly. Nervously wiping the gouache on Emperor Wusheng's hands.
"Ah"
Seeing that Su Yan was so panicked that he lost all control, he used the fox's forefoot to hold the back of his hand, and then used his fox elbow to clean the palm of his hand, Wusheng Emperor couldn't help but chuckle:
"I have no intention of harming you, so there is no need to panic and speak normally."
For most demon females, having cubs of the same species will make them more patient.
Moreover, when Xiu'er returned, she brought with her the memory of getting along with Su Yan. Su Yan was not some wild fox in Emperor Wusheng's mind, but an acquaintance of his descendants.
Therefore, seeing Su Yan's panicked look of fear of death, Emperor Wusheng couldn't help but chuckle.
"You know Gu's secret, Gudu didn't execute you directly, do you still care about the dirty palms?"
Emperor Wusheng said this, but after taking his palm out of Su Yan's hand, he patted the fox's back with his backhand and rubbed the palm of his palm with rouge and gouache.
Just like when you touch a dog's head and you touch saliva, you will subconsciously rub it directly back to it.
Obviously, Emperor Wusheng was still a little disgusted.
