"The Nichirin Pavilion is in front of you. If you see the Queen later, please..."
"No, it's nothing."
After walking through the streets of Nichirin City and seeing a palace standing in the dark night, Yao Ji, who had been silent for the entire journey, finally couldn't hold back some emotions in her heart and wanted to say something.
But when he touched the latter's calm eyes, the words he wanted to blurt out were swallowed back.
Because she knew clearly that no matter what she said or warned, this young onmyoji from a foreign land would act according to her own heart and will.
Just like the other person had just faced his father.
In addition, the bright lights and peaceful atmosphere along the way were also one of the reasons why Yao Ji stopped talking.
After all, how could he watch his home fall into eternal darkness?
Moreover, no matter how much she denied or resisted, in fact, asking the Queen to cancel the wedding was indeed the best way to avoid disaster.
My father must have recognized this, so he didn't say a word before.
"Just leave the rest to me."
"You don't need to speak, just keep insisting on your own ideas."
"Well, just think of it as repaying your trust."
Huang Cheng continued Yao Ji's unspoken words and continued to speak on his own.
Following the woman all the way, he could clearly tell from the eyes, expressions, and words of the passing residents the respect and love these original residents had for Yao Ji and Queen Himihu.
Therefore, he is very able to empathize and understand the inner struggles of the other party.
So the next bad guys let themselves do it, treating it as the price they have to pay in order to obtain the artifact Yun Wai Mirror.
Of course, during the journey together, Huang still activated the secret technique of Ming Jing Shisui, and ordinary people could not see his existence at all.
After all, earlier, he had some conflicts with the defenders of Nichirin City. This was done to avoid unnecessary trouble.
"Thanks."
Hearing the response of the Onmyoji whom she met for the first time today, Yaoji was speechless for a moment. After a brief silence, she could only use these pale and short words to express her emotions.
"Don't jump to conclusions. Maybe I will be the one thanking you in the end."
"Don't forget, you promised to save me."
"Suppose I accidentally fall into reincarnation."
Huang said seriously.
Although the result was described as very terrifying, there was no clear fear on Yu Zhi's face.
After all, he has a more direct trump card than the Yamata no Orochi sealed in the narrow room.
That trump card was lodged in his chest and heart, and the burning sensation that he had gradually become accustomed to reminded him all the time that he had to work hard and become stronger faster.
only,
Once this trump card is revealed, Nichirin City, Takamagahara, and themselves will all be unable to bear the consequences of the other party's birth.
"I swear."
Compared to Huang Na, who looked a little less concerned, Yao Ji looked much more serious.
After all, she has always had a sincere apology for dragging a new Onmyoji master into a punishment event that required him to face the gods.
Therefore, some necessary and not excessive agreements mentioned in the former are even more important.
Faced with Yao Ji's serious response, Huang seemed a little at a loss.
In fact, his intention to obtain the [Yun Wai Mirror] was immediately revealed.
But this impulse was finally suppressed by him, and all his emotions were reduced to a simple sentence:
"Let's go".
If there is another opportunity to cooperate and meet each other in the future, I will find another opportunity to make amends.
After withdrawing his eyes from the determined gaze with the former, Huang Yu thought silently in his heart.
"Please step aside first. I want to talk to the Queen tonight."
"So, it's enough for me to protect you here."
After arriving at Rilun Pavilion, Yao Ji had suppressed most of her emotions and calmly spoke to the soldiers guarding the place.
"Yes, Lord Yaoji."
"Then I'll have to trouble Lady Yaoji tonight."
Hearing this, the Nichirin City guards guarding the place did not doubt him, but quickly responded in agreement after their eyes met.
Because they all know very well the close sister-like relationship between Lord Himihu and Lord Yaoji, and the latter has had such a late-night stay before.
The most important thing is that Her Majesty the Queen will get married in two days. Due to her increased status, it may be difficult for the two of them, who are like sisters, to have such intimate time alone.
Now it is understandable that Lord Yaoji has such a wish.
"polite."
Yao Ji nodded lightly at the soldiers who were evacuating from her side. She didn't know whether it was because of the darkness or the help of the Onmyoji beside her, but there was nothing wrong with her face.
As for Huang who used the secret technique of [Flower in the Mirror, Water and Moon], naturally he was still not noticed.
In other words, in this city, the only ones who can truly discover its existence are Yao Ji and the Queen of Rilun City, and even the current general cannot.
Entering Nichirin Pavilion, you step through the towering vermilion torii gate, pass by a large martial arts arena, and then continue to climb up the well-defined stone steps to a square high platform. A large-scale palace officially appears in the desert. in sight.
At the same time, he could also feel a fiery and majestic aura from the depths of the palace, which was completely opposite to Yao Ji, who practiced the mysteries of the moon.
There is no doubt that the owner of that aura must be Her Royal Highness the Queen of this ancient land of the sun.
Moreover, Huang also noticed a feeling of being explored.
Obviously, Her Royal Highness the Queen, who is loved by the residents of Nichirin City, has also vaguely sensed his existence, but due to the distance and secret techniques, it seems that she has not yet reached a conclusion.
Simply, he directly canceled the maintenance of the secret technique of [Mirror Shisui], openly appeared on the high platform he was standing on, and surveyed the surrounding environment.
He saw a huge statue with a gold-plated surface, exaggerated size, and a head like a lotus crown, standing steadily in front of his field of vision. Even in the dim sky, he could feel its majesty.
[Is this the symbol of the sun god? 】
[It is true that no era or plane can escape the law that 'gods and Buddhas' require gold equipment. 】
There was no respect in Huang's eyes, only a fleeting look of teasing.
Because it reminded him of the time he was rejected by the monks of the Fire Temple.
After stopping for a moment, and adjusting his mood as Yao Ji took a few breaths of relief, Huang Cai continued to follow him towards the main hall in his sight.
During this last distance, Yao Ji did not stop. The sound of her boots hitting the stone slabs of the palace was particularly clear and passed in circles toward the depths of the inner hall.
When you cross the front hall which is neither long nor short,
The field of vision and the light became brighter together, and a gorgeous woman wearing a white wedding dress also appeared in Huang's eyes. There was no doubt that she was Himiko, the queen of Nichirin City.
And white, for this ancient city, is a symbol of the sun's rays.
"Here you are, my lovely Yao Ji."
"Come and take a look at my wedding dress the day after tomorrow, how about it?"
The woman who was paying attention to the arrival looked very happy, and her voice was extremely cheerful. She even raised her skirt elegantly and spun it around in circles. She did not look like a queen of the ancient city who was aloof and inviolable at all. She looked more like a woman. An ordinary girl immersed in joy and happiness.
Seeing the Queen spinning around happily, Yao Ji couldn't help but squeeze out a stiff smile on her serious face.
"Yes, Your Majesty the Queen."
"You are very beautiful now and you will always be beautiful."
"Lord Wan Deng..."
Yao Ji poured out words of praise without hesitation, and her mood and voice, which were originally a bit low and stiff, became much lighter under the influence of the former's joyful mood.
However, when she mentioned the queen's lover, her smooth speech was involuntarily interrupted briefly.
"I believe Master Wan Deng will also like it very much."
However, Yao Ji finally continued what she had not finished before, but she lost the emotion she had just summoned.
Originally, she wanted to confess everything directly to the former, but after seeing Meimei put on her wedding clothes and immersed in joy, all the previous determinations and decisions were stuck in her throat, and it was difficult to express them at all.
After all, how could she have the heart to break and prevent the person she respected most from achieving happiness?
"Yeah,"
"Does Wan Deng really like him?"
Himihu didn't pay attention to the interruption in Yaoji's emotions and words. Instead, he was immersed in the fantasy created here like a little girl, with a slight shy blush on his gentle and noble soft cheeks.
She must be looking forward to her wedding the day after tomorrow.
So much so that I subconsciously exclude all bad things that may exist. Just like the complicated expression on Yao Ji's face, it's like there's a panting outsider present in the palace.
"My Lady Queen, actually I came here today to report something to you..."
Looking at the Queen of the Sun who was immersed in happiness and longing, even though Yao Ji had so many things in her heart that she couldn't let go of, she still spoke after all. Her cold, bright eyes were like the shining bright moon hanging high in the night, making it impossible to ignore.
"If you don't talk about anything else these days, just spend time with me, okay?"
Himihu suddenly interrupted the words of the courtier in front of him, but there was a faint hint of resistance and struggle in his suddenly panic eyes.
But such emotions were soon forcibly suppressed and hidden by her with some stronger will and emotion. The look in her eyes gradually returned to calmness, and so did her continued words.
"I still have many, many things I want to tell you."
"Since you grew up, you rarely stay here overnight. Tonight is just the right time."
"As for other things, can we wait until after the wedding is over to talk about it? My Yao Ji."
Yu Zhi's last tone also contained a hint of pleading.
Such progress seems to be beyond the imaginary state when Yao Ji came.
Facing Her Royal Highness the Queen, who was like a biological sister, and feeling the request contained in Yu's eyes, she could not continue her previous decision for a while, and the sudden call in her heart was to obey the former's wishes.
[Anyway, there is still one day. 】
But the remaining sanity and the silhouette of the nightmare still made him glance at the Onmyoji on one side subconsciously.
And from his gradually softening eyes, Huang could see not only a request similar to that of the Queen of the Sun, but also a look of help that was almost completely suppressed.
Obviously, Yao Ji knew that she alone could not refuse the Queen's request.
After all, this is the happiest moment for the other person,
After all, the disaster from the gods has not happened yet,
After all, this is the Queen whom I respect and adore the most.
Therefore, he chose to ask for help.
After all, that person said when he came, just leave it to him! !
【You won’t lie to me, right? 】
"It seems that Her Royal Highness the Queen has also anticipated some things, so she directly stopped what Yao Ji wanted to report."
"But coming from the fear in your heart, do you really want to choose to turn a blind eye?"
After receiving the expression of help from Yao Ji's eyes, Ara then spoke accordingly.
And judging from the appearance of the Queen, she had obviously expected or guessed something.
After all, she is the closest to a god in this ancient land of the sun, and she can occasionally listen to the oracle.
Since Yao Ji has some sense of the disaster after the Queen's wedding, how could the other party really be unaware of it?
There is only one reason that can explain all this:
The precious love made him resist the possible danger, and he resolutely chose to continue taking risks, gambling on forgiveness from the gods.
Such blunt words not only caused a wave of excitement in Queen Himihu's eyes, but also made the resistant look in Yao Ji's eyes gradually become clearer and clearer.
[What do you mean by anticipation and fear? 】
She looked at Her Lady Queen who was so close, but for a moment she felt that she was far, far away from her.
"what are you saying?"
Sensing Yao Ji's emotional changes and the struggling attitude of not responding to her invitation, Himihu also breathed a sigh of relief and slowly lowered his forward palm, and began to choose to face this dangerous aura. Visitors from outside the territory.
After asking calmly, they looked directly into each other's eyes.
This gives Huang a sense of danger of facing the sun,
It also made the Queen fearful of the former's tight left pupil.
"Oh, by the way, I haven't asked yet, who are you?"
While speaking, he did not show the gentleness and respect for an equally powerful person that was rumored to be heard by the residents of Sunlight City. He even turned around and re-seated his own throne.
And this is just a breath of rotation, causing his whole person's momentum and power to undergo earth-shaking changes.
The transformation from a little girl who fell in love to a noble queen who looked down upon the world.
After all, this person is neither Yao Ji nor Wan Deng, so there is no need for her to treat him in the gentlest way.
"Well, it doesn't matter who it is."
"Anyway, every once in a while, adventurers like you will appear here."
"So, Shiqu, Yun Waijing, which one do you want during this trip?"
"Still, I want to get it all."
