Chapter 124: Snow Country(1/2)
Today is the coming-of-age ceremony for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and everyone is celebrating. Many people spontaneously sang and danced, and countless people were paying attention to the Crown Prince's movements. This grand ceremony, which was already attracting a lot of attention, also gained popularity because of the appearance of the young man from the Fighting God Clan.
A more terrifying heat.
The Imperial City Security Department, the Royal Guards, the Imperial Military, the Inspection Department, the Central Intelligence Agency... all major departments are paying close attention to this matter. Countless pairs of eyes filled with solemnity and scrutiny gathered here, three hundred meters away.
The defenses inside and outside the tall and magnificent walls have also been strengthened. Every component of this huge machine in the Imperial City has been tightened at this moment. If you pull one hair, it will affect the whole body. If there is any crisis, the whole world will see this.
The power of such a huge dynasty.
The young man from the Fighting God Tribe fought through the obstacles in the ring, and with lightning speed he defeated two of this year's super geniuses. At the same time, he also brought the Fighting God Tribe, a term that seems to have been very long ago, but seems to have no distance from human beings, back to everyone.
.
When mentioning this race, it is inevitable to think of the invincible former God of War - Yuan Jiang.
Today's God of War is Tian Mo, the God of War who holds a weight of tens of millions of pounds. Before Tian Mo, there was the God of War of the Dou Shen Clan who died due to rebellion. When Yuan Jiang was the God of War, all races would fight against this God of War.
He bowed his head under the power of the God of War, just like this young man in the battlefield of the Imperial Academy, crushing countless races with an invincible attitude, and made great contributions to the establishment of the Han and Tang dynasties and the divine world.
Yuan Jiang, who comes from the Dou Shen Clan, is undoubtedly the representative of the Dou Shen Clan, and also represents the most powerful force in the world. Even though there was a rebellion, he was destroyed because of the rebellion, and the name of Yuan Jiang is still known to everyone.
It was deeply engraved in the hearts of many people, so when the Dou Shen clan, which had disappeared for thousands of years, appeared in the dynasty, the name Yuanjiang also appeared in many people's minds.
When people began to recall the life of the former God of War, this long-standing name that would never be forgotten, followed the news and spread all the way to the north.
There are no clouds in the imperial capital today, and the warm sunshine shines all around. In the northwest of the dynasty, the Fiery Demon Purgatory, where the sealed gate between the demon world and the human world is located, is further north. It is the northernmost area of the entire continent, and there is no fire all year round.
The melted Tanghuan Snowfield. Although it has a happy name, this place has been frozen for thousands of years, and the ice and snow have not melted all year round. The heavy snow almost never stops, and naturally there is no human habitation.
This is a restricted area for mortal spirits and one of the territories of the God Realm. Guarding this snowfield is the polar goddess Youlan, one of the twelve main gods.
It was October, and there were still heavy snowfalls here. Snow-white frost trees were in full bloom on the white land, and their pure white petals fluttered in the biting cold wind, stubbornly refusing to fall. They were like a snow-white flower.
Polar birds flew by here, and this forest of Tanghuan trees filled the sky with fragrance. Snow-white petals mixed with goose down and heavy snow were flying in the sky.
This polar bird with clean and beautiful wings has a long tail dragging white air waves over the snow-capped mountains. The flying snow in the sky hovers behind it, forming a beautiful vortex. Its beautiful eyes penetrate the sight.
The wind and snow flew to the lake it was familiar with ten kilometers away.
This lake is extremely magical. It is about a million hectares. Half of the lake is covered by ice. The other half is warm in spring, with fish jumping for joy. It even steams up with some warm water vapor, forming a dense color and streaks of rainbows.
The bridge hangs in mid-air.
On the side of the lake where the spring water is warm, there is a particularly exquisite Tanghuan tree. It is different from any other Tanghuan tree. Its trunk is crystal clear and its petals are colorful. Each petal has a difference in color. It seems that
All the colors in the world are displayed on a tree. The tree is about thirty meters high.
, the huge and quiet petals are fluttering in the wind, and the dense tree crown is covered with continuously scattered white snow, forming a head of white hair. A branch falls like an arm, and a person under the tree is wearing snow-white clothes, and his skin is as white as snow.
, the incredibly beautiful woman gently brushed a piece of snow velvet off her shoulders.
This woman's slightly loose snow robe covers her flawless body, her fragrant teeth are hidden under her cherry lips, and the beauty of the snow flying in the sky is captured in a pair of divine eyes. Just one look at these eyes will make her feel...
People feel as if they have been baptized from soul to body.
Everyone in the dynasty said that Liu Guoshi was the most beautiful woman in the dynasty, but if Liu Guoshi were here, compared with this woman, even if the huge gap between humans and gods was eliminated, in terms of appearance alone, the so-called most beautiful woman would fall into the dust.
inside.
This incredibly beautiful woman, sitting and lying here, staring blankly into the sky, as if thinking about something, is one of the twelve main gods who are worshiped by people, especially in winter.
One of the polar goddesses - Orchid.
"The man has passed away, Orchid, and winter is coming soon." The branches of the Tanghuan tree were retracted, and the snowflakes lifted up into the sky, blending into the wind and frost, and the tree emitted a somewhat old and slow sound.
Female voice.
A smile appeared on Orchid's snow-white skin, and the ice-blue orchid on her head became even brighter with this smile. There seemed to be no boundary between the long life and the boring life of a god. No matter how beautiful the scene was back then,
After that incident, all that remained in her eyes was the monotony of the desert.
"Is it October again?" She put her hands on her knees. She had lived a long life, but she was still just a teenage girl. She held her hands on her knees. In the eyes of the other gods, she was
The goddess, who is as ruthless as the ice and snow, actually showed a somewhat cute attitude. "It's already been another year in the blink of an eye."
"Maybe you have to learn to forget." Tang Huanshu pondered for a moment, his voice as sad as the howling wind and snow.
The smile on Youlan's face gradually disappeared.
Tang Huanshu said in a deep voice: "Didn't you forget what you said... He fulfilled the agreement, why don't you?"
In Youlan's eyes that were smiling just a moment ago, a drop of crystal sparkled, then turned into frost and was swept away by the cool breeze.
"He is unwilling to give in, and he has swallowed it for so many years. The decision was made by you and him together. Why is he willing, but you... are still unwilling?"
Youlan's long eyelashes trembled, and she closed her eyes gently. A few sparkling crystals trembled at the front of her eyelashes, and her voice became ethereal and sad: "Where..."
She didn't say anything, but Tang Huanshu knew that what she wanted to say was, how could it be so simple?
It is indeed not that simple, but after being paralyzed for so many years and having pain for so many years, what is the point of maintaining it except for more pain? Tanghuanshu sighed longly, and the colorful petals were like a flower.
A spring rain fell, falling on Orchid's snow-white body, embellishing her with a bit more color.
"Aren't you torturing yourself? You need to forget it. If the Emperor of Heaven knows about it..." Tang Huanshu fell into silence. After a long period of silence, he said slowly: "I'm afraid you will be in more pain."
Youlan didn't reply, but the body of this goddess was trembling slightly because of the heart-breaking pain. Tears like broken threads rolled down her cheeks and turned into pieces of blue snowflakes.
, flying in the air, the orchid above my head, which had been gone for sixteen years, was trembling gently in the wind and snow.
Tang Huanshu looked sadly at the goddess who had been with him for thousands of years. He knew that she still couldn't let go, even if she could make such a decision a few years ago.
She could bear the pain of sending him away forever and completely severing ties with him, but she could never forget him in her heart.
Tang Huanshu wanted to say something else, because as a bystander who witnessed the whole incident, he knew best that although the problem seemed to be solved, the root cause was only half resolved. If the root cause was not solved, the goddess might be with him for the rest of his life.
pain.
Before the words could be heard, a sound broke through the air.
"Goddess Orchid, Goddess Orchid..."
Youlan slowly raised her head, all the tears in her eyes disappeared, and her clear eyes saw a snow-white polar bird flying above her head and landing on the branch of the Tanghuan tree.
He was careless and broke a Tanghuan flower. His sharp claws tightly grasped the branch, thus avoiding the danger of falling off the tree.
"Xiaobai, you are always so flustered, can you be more careful?" Tang Huanshu scolded angrily, as if she were a worried grandma.
Xiaobai flapped his wings awkwardly and said, "Ah, I'm sorry, I just learned the big news, so I moved a little hastily."
"You do this every time. This has nothing to do with major news."
"There is really big news this time!" Xiaobai hissed.
"Xiao Bai, speak slowly." Youlan looked forward, her snow-white hair flickering slightly, and snowflakes flew out from her hair.
Youlan's voice was like ice and snow, making people immersed in peace. Xiaobai slowly regained his composure and said softly: "Isn't the goddess Youlan concerned about the situation of the dynasty? I just saw with my clairvoyance that there is a Dou Shen clan.
The clan members have gone to the imperial capital."
"Fighting God Clan?" Youlan suddenly raised her head.
"It's absolutely true. How could I be wrong? It's really...the Fighting God Clan..."
"Why do people from the Dou Shen Clan want to go to the imperial capital?" Youlan frowned worriedly.
Youlan's reaction fully proved Tang Huanshu's judgment, but the signal in this question is the key to concern now. Xiaobai and Tang Huanshu, who were equally at war with each other, fell silent. Neither of them could figure out why.
Youlan's brows slowly unknotted, and the white snow fell freely on the snowfield. Gradually, her mood became as tense as the flying snow. "The Emperor of Heaven must know about such a major matter. The Emperor of Heaven has no idea about it."
The reaction is the tacit approval of the Emperor of Heaven."
Xiaobai flapped his wings in surprise, suspended in the air, and flew to Youlan's feet. Looking at the stunning goddess sitting and lying down, he said uneasily: "The Emperor of Heaven acquiesces? Maybe it's even what the Emperor of Heaven means? The Emperor of Heaven still agrees with him.
The same attitude as before?”
Youlan nodded slowly.
The branches of the Tanghuan tree twisted in mid-air, shrouding the two of them under its shade, and said: "The Dou Shen Clan has been quiet for so long, and there is absolutely no need to have in-depth contact with humans. Since
Yes, it should be man-made, but since the Emperor of Heaven did not stop it, it was tacit approval.
Is there any other deep meaning in acquiescing the Dou Shen Clan to enter the dynasty’s territory? Xiaobai, are the Dou Shen Clan’s people going to the imperial capital?”
Xiaobai nodded repeatedly: "It's the Imperial Capital. A boy from the Fighting God Clan is fighting against a human boy in the Imperial Capital of the Dynasty."
"The Emperor of Heaven must be taking this opportunity to do something, and it is very likely to be related to him? Is there any response that needs to be made?" Xiaobai's voice was as solemn as ice.
Youlan hesitated for a moment and shook her head.
"Things that I don't even know, it is even less likely that the Emperor of Heaven will know. His acquiescence is in response to speculation. It is also possible that we are overly concerned. The Emperor of Heaven simply allowed this exchange between humans and the Dou Shen Clan."
Tang Huanshu pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Well, it's just a guess. It's hard to say anything now. Youlan, we need to calm down and firmly believe that everything we did back then will not cause problems."
Youlan took a deep breath of the cold air, not sure whether she heard Tang Huanshu's words, and leaned casually on the clear trunk. She looked up at the southern sky. At this moment, the sky over there was full of auroras and colorful.
She was amazed, but her eyes were distracted, and a place that was strange and familiar to her murmured softly in her mouth:
"Dynasty...Imperial Capital...Imperial Capital?"
Tang Huanshu also sighed indifferently. Although it knew as well as Orchid that the Emperor of Heaven has not relaxed its guard until today, it was not worried about whether the appearance of the Dou Shen Clan boy in the dynasty would bring something, or whether it would be
The Emperor of Heaven used human hands to search for her. What he was worried about was that for the goddess he was very worried about, she had been refusing to let go and fulfill her promise back then. When would the pain end?
