Chapter 56 Dao Realm
A thousand miles south of Fengxi Mountain is a large wasteland with no scattered trees inside. If the weather is good, people can see a very far place in the wasteland.
A bronze chariot and a golden tent stood in the wasteland, and no wild beasts or humans dared to approach.
Eighteen knights were guarded by the king's tent and chariots, all of whom were leading a pair of black sky horses with wings. If anyone familiar with the history of the Western Wilderness and the Heavenly Temple would know that the Eighteen knights were the legendary sacred knights of the Heavenly Temple, but these sacred knights had fallen into an affiliation to the Hanging Mountain.
They all appear on the list of the killings in the Temple of Heaven, and now there is an appropriate name that they all recognize - "Dark Knight".
The Dark Knights will bring darkness and chaos, and eliminate all the enemies they see. They no longer believe in the gods, but sacrifice everything they have to their current commander, which is the genius of the Western Wilderness Demon Clan - Prince Xuantong.
Even if there are such an existence as Qiantangjun in this era, there are also leaders like the Demon Emperor who have supreme reputation among the Demon Clans, but all the Western Demon Clans believe that the future belongs to Prince Xuantong.
Even the mortal enemy of the Hanging Mountain, Tianshen Temple, deeply recognizes this.
In the list of the killings in the Tianshen Temple, Prince Xuantong is in the first line. Of course, this is why the Tianshen Temple knows that the demon emperor cannot be killed, so it is not placed on the list of the killings.
But no one would look down on Prince Xuantong because of this incident, because Prince Xuantong was placed on the list of the killings of the Tianshen Temple and ranked first, it proved that the Tianshen Temple Fair has been targeting him, ambushing and assassinating him.
The killers sent by the Tianshen Temple are all real dead soldiers, and they can sacrifice everything in order to complete the task. Moreover, these killers also have the power and talents that only powerful Qi Refiners have. Therefore, when a killer of this level really wants to kill someone at all costs, even if the target is twice as strong as the killer, he may not be able to survive.
But Prince Xuantong has been alive. Even the eighteen Dark Knights on the list of the Celestial Temple were living well under the leadership of Prince Xuantong.
This point even shows the terribleness of Prince Xuantong even more than any brilliant record.
What's more, he had even entered the Temple of Heaven and brought people out alive.
At this moment, the young demon genius was sitting cross-legged in the king's tent. He was still wearing black armor, revealing only a pair of dazzling and strange purple eyes.
In front of him was a beautiful woman. With just her smile, she could make many people fascinated by her, but it did not include Prince Xuantong in front of her.
There was no trace of turbulence in the purple pupil. Under the woman's foot was a hexagram of three feet in size, which was shining with a very strange and colorful brilliance, which made the woman unable to get out of it.
The woman is Izumo.
"You'll let me go." Izumo snorted coldly.
Prince Xuantong said lightly: "I will take you back to the Hanging Mountain after I capture the Phoenix."
Izumo said, "I don't want to go there."
Prince Xuantong pondered, "I don't want to force you either."
Izumo sneered, "Then you let me go."
Prince Xuantong said: "No."
Izumo suddenly softened his expression and said softly: "Did you forget what happened when you were a child?"
When she is cold, she is like an iceberg and dares not approach her, but when she becomes gentle, she is softer than the spring breeze and rain, which makes people unable to bear to refuse any requests from the bottom of their hearts.
Prince Xuantong's tone also softened, and he said, "Of course I remember that I was born very thin, and I was just an ordinary half-demon, with no father or mother, and was often bullied on the Hanging Mountain. At that time, only you looked down on me. Every time you came to Hanging Mountain, you would always bring me some delicious food and toys. You know that you don't like toys, so you will find swords and magic. You know that I hope to become stronger and not be bullied. Even since you met me, I have gradually been no longer bullied."
Izumo said, "So you remember it all."
Prince Xuantong said: "How can I forget that when I was the weakest, you covered some storms for me, otherwise there might not be Xuantong in the world today."
Izumo said: "But I would rather you be a child of that time forever."
Prince Xuantong said softly: "Whether human or demon is a human being, they will grow up. Do you still remember the incident when I broke into the Heavenly God Temple alone five years ago?"
Izumo said: "Of course I remember that no matter how brilliant your record is, so far, that experience is still the most commendable thing for you."
Prince Xuantong sighed softly and said, "You must remember that I took a woman away from it."
Izumo smiled and said, "I do remember and am happy for you, thinking that you finally found the one you love."
Prince Xuantong said: "I still remember that day was August 16th, and the day before was the full moon. During that time, it was the time when osmanthus flowers were in full bloom. I know that at this time of year you like to pick some osmanthus flowers to make osmanthus wine.
Do you remember telling me before that the water used to make osmanthus wine is best for the Tianshen Temple of Heavenly Temple. You said that you drank osmanthus wine brewed with Tianshen Spring Water once when you were a child. Since then, you have fallen in love with osmanthus wine, but the osmanthus wine you drank later was not as good as the osmanthus wine brewed with Tianshen Spring Water.
You told me once, and I remembered it. I happened to be on a mission near the Tianshen Temple, and I saw the osmanthus flowers in front of the Tianshen Temple Mountain, and I remembered you. So I broke into the Tianshen Temple."
Izumo couldn't help but be stunned, and then said, "You actually went to the Tianshen Temple for the sake of the Tianshen Spring? I always thought that was the test of the Demon Emperor on you."
Prince Xuantong smiled faintly and said, "Actually, seven years ago, the Demon Emperor had already tested me for the last test. I did it well, beyond his expectations, so he had already given me the future of the Hanging Mountain with confidence."
Izumo has mixed feelings. She has always known that Prince Xuantong is excellent, but his excellence is beyond her expectations. Moreover, her care for him when she was a child was only due to sympathy and had no other thoughts. Even after Prince Xuantong began to emerge, they rarely contacted each other. Even if they met by chance, they were only a little better than passers-by, so she never felt that Prince Xuantong would have any special feelings for her.
Just now, she had no choice but to mention the past, but this made her see the unknown side of Prince Xuantong.
Prince Xuantong continued: "Five years ago, my Heavenly Demonic Technique had reached the realm of transformation and quietly sneaked into the Heavenly God Temple. No one noticed me until I took the Tianshen Spring Water. But before I left the Tianshen Temple, I saw a woman who was about to be burned to death in the Judgment Square of the Tianshen Temple, so I made a crazy decision to take her away, but the reason was that she looked a bit like you."
Izumo sighed and said, "It turns out that I am so important in your heart, but I never thought of it before."
Prince Xuantong said: "Because you won't pay attention to me at all."
Izumo said: "What's the point of saying this now? After you said so much, I can still feel that you won't let me go."
Prince Xuantong said, "Yes, I won't let you go, because you will be the demon queen in Hanging Mountain."
Izumo frowned and said, "But I won't marry the Demon Emperor, you should know very well."
Prince Xuantong said: "I know the rules of the Dongyi clan. If you want to practice the most powerful witchcraft, you must keep your body as jade. You often come to Yunkong Mountain not because you like it, but because Yunkong Mountain has had a good relationship with Dongyi clan for generations, and you have some secret techniques that need to be practiced in Yunkong Mountain. Over the years, you not only have the Dongyi clan's witchcraft, but also refined the magic mirror in Yunkong Mountain and stole the purple gold bell, so there is no place you miss on Yunkong Mountain.
If it weren't for the Purple Gold Ling's great symbolic significance to the Hanging Mountain, I think the Demon Emperor wouldn't send someone to catch you. Even the goods he sent out were not your opponent at all. He was deeply in love with you and never thought of hurting you."
Izumo said: "You are here to capture me this time, isn't the Demon Emperor's intention?"
Prince Xuantong said: "This is what I mean."
"Why? You know that even the Demon Emperor doesn't plan to pursue me, but you still want to catch me back?" Izumo was even more confused.
Prince Xuantong said calmly: "Because I want to take you back."
Izumo said: "You want to take me back to be a demon queen? What do you think?"
Prince Xuantong said, "I know you think I'm crazy, but I actually don't. With your intelligence, you should understand what I mean."
Izumo's body trembled and said, "You mean he has been in a few days and you will soon succeed to the Demon Emperor?"
Prince Xuantong said: "Not bad."
Izumo said: "How is it possible? He will have at least a few hundred years of life."
Prince Xuantong said, "Because that test seven years ago was that he wanted to fight me once, he thought he could teach me a lot. Indeed, during that whole battle, I had almost no power to fight back. Until the end, I realized the Tao realm, which was my own Tao and a key step to step into the ranks of truly peerless strong people. Only he, Qiantang Jun, has a few people who understand that, by the way, recently, there is another Liusheng Daozhai, which is my favorite opponent so far. I have decided to fight with him on the day I inherited the throne of the Demon Emperor, that is, when I got married with you. That must be the most eye-catching battle in the mountains and seas in the past thousand years, and that day will be unforgettable."
Izumo said coldly: "I don't think there will be the day you imagined. And you hurt the Demon Emperor?"
Prince Xuantong fell silent and said, "To be precise, he deliberately hurt me. At that time, I had not yet been able to revitalize the power of the Dao Realm, so he had only two choices, kill me, or be hurt by me."
Izumo said: "I will never forgive you for this."
"Why?"
"Because she is wearing green or not, green is the color of forgiveness." Someone said leisurely.
The young man in white clothes suddenly appeared in the tent of the king. It was Ji Liao.
"You could have died a little later, but you insisted on coming out now." Prince Xuantong was not surprised at all, as if he had known Ji Liao's existence.
Ji Liao walked to Izumo slowly.
Izumo said: "The joke you told is not funny at all, and that's right, get out quickly."
Ji Liao clapped his hands and smiled and said, "I'm just telling a joke to relieve your mood. You haven't received any good results."
As if Ji Liao was so distant, Prince Xuantong was not angry, because for him, Ji Liao was immediately dead.
Izumo said angrily: "Go away quickly."
She knew very well how terrible Prince Xuantong, who could hurt the Demon Emperor, was that it was not something Ji Liao could handle.
Ji Liao said: "I promised your niece to take you away, and I have always done what I say."
Prince Xuantong said, "I know you have some skills. You were spying on me before, but with your ability, if you take her away in front of me, I'm afraid you won't be able to take her away in front of me."
Ji Liao smiled and said, "Then I will try my life."
