Princess Jinrou is always alert, and her perception ability covers her surroundings.
Some black spots will always appear around the Heavenly Palace, then slowly expand, and then disappear inexplicably somewhere.
Those should be the powerful men patrolling the Tiangong. Most of the soul pets they control seem to be dragons.
After entering the Heavenly Palace, Yu Suo didn't say a word. From the soul covenant, Chu Mu felt that her emotions were actually fluctuating very strongly, and at the same time, she was deliberately restraining herself from showing such emotions.
As we get closer and closer to the white city, the guards become more and more strict.
"There are several places near the city that are guarded by powerful creatures. We have to enter the city from other places." Princess Jinrou said.
"Follow me." Yusuo finally spoke.
Yusuo led the two of them around the front of the white celestial city and flew into an independent town on the side of the white city.
This white town is connected to Baicheng, but you can see some white walls separating the traffic between the town and Baicheng.
You can feel that the aura of the strong here will be a bit weaker.
The streets are made of white jade and carved with various ancient patterns in blue.
The building is also white, as clean as if it were cast from ice crystals.
There are no shops here, so it can be seen that there is no business here.
Chu Mu didn't see any plants here. Although the entire Celestial City seemed to be shrouded in a special fairy spirit, without plant embellishments, it would always feel like it was missing some real natural flavor.
It was difficult to see pedestrians on the white streets, and it was unclear whether the people here stayed in their houses or were concentrated somewhere.
"The lifestyle here is not much different from that in human cities, but for everyone born here, after undergoing uniform and strict training, some will stay in the Heavenly Palace as guardians of the Heavenly Palace, and others will be sent to
On the ground, it controls the operation of the human race to a certain extent." Yu Suo knew that Chu Mu was confused, so she explained aloud without waiting for him to ask.
Chu Mu looked at her and saw her expressionless face, and said, "You are very emotionally unstable."
Yu Suo pretended not to hear and continued: "Then, the people living in this town are a group of eliminated people. They have not been able to become the guards of the Heavenly Palace, have not been able to enter the White City, and have not become the envoys sent to the human race.
, so they were demoted to live here.”
"There is nothing here except houses. Isn't it very monotonous to live here?" Princess Jinrou said.
"Monotonous?" Yusuo felt that the word was not used accurately enough and corrected: "They are already dead."
"Why do you say that?" Chu Mu asked.
"The time should be up soon, let's watch quietly here." Yu Suo said.
Chu Mu looked into the distance and found that the scorching red sun had disappeared at this time, replaced by a mesmerizingly beautiful silver full moon.
The silver moonlight fell on this white city, and it suddenly looked as beautiful as the moon palace in the painting.
Just when Chu Mu was sighing that the moon here was particularly moving, the silver moon was suddenly slowly covered with a layer of blood-colored gauze. This gauze made the clean silver moon become hazy, and the projected light also showed
Deep red color.
"Rumble, rumble, rumble~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
Suddenly, the ground and the city began to tremble!
An inexplicable wild wind whipped in from outside the city, whipping the white city.
Immediately afterwards, heart-stopping roars came from the distance, filled with the smell of hunger and cruelty.
Chu Mu and Princess Jinrou both looked outside the city and discovered that at some point, creatures with black wings appeared in the starry sky. On the flat blue-black land, there was a group of powerful creatures heading towards them at the speed of starlight.
Speeding here, even under the hard blue land, some strange-sized creatures crawled out of the potholes and holes under the rocky land, with pairs of red eyes blooming with extremely ferocious light!!
They are all heading towards this white city, or to be more precise, they are all heading towards this isolated town.
At this time, the houses in the town suddenly opened, and Chu Mu saw many people walking out of them, and then they all gathered on the street.
The aura of these people is not too weak, but Chu Mu doesn't understand, those terrifying monsters are about to arrive in the city, why haven't they summoned their soul pets to resist.
Moreover, there are obviously many strong people in Tiancheng. When faced with such monster attacks, they seem to be indifferent, as if they are not worried at all that those monsters will break through their city.
Soon, the streets were filled with people from all over the town.
There was no one leading the group. These people walked in rows towards the outside of the city. Their eyes looked very strange.
According to Chu Mu's understanding, when the city was attacked by monsters, the eyes of the people in the city should be full of fear or fighting spirit, but the eyes of these people Chu Mu saw were extremely numb.
They clearly have their own thoughts and look just like normal people. In Chu Mu's opinion, the average strength of these people is considered to be the best in the human field, but now they are like a group of walking zombies, slowly moving towards the outside of the city.
Go.
The city gate opens to welcome the monster outside the city.
There are about three thousand people, but none of them has summoned a soul pet.
“Ouch!!!!!!!!!!!!”
A rock-type monster that resembled a centipede and a snake suddenly emerged from the blue-black soil, and bit it with a terrifying big mouth. Hundreds of people were immediately swallowed directly into the monster's belly, and a pool of blood sprayed all around.
on other people.
By this time, the crowd was already panicking and they began to disperse.
You must know that humans who do not summon soul pets are very fragile. Those monsters do not need to use any skills at all. They can just tear their bodies apart with their claws and fangs, or eat them alive.
Blood splattered everywhere, severed limbs, heads, and mutilated bodies were scattered on the ground. The person who was eaten alive even had a pair of bones spit out quickly.
These three thousand people who walked out of the city's protection area were like human food thrown into a group of wild beasts, and were eaten by the group of monsters in an instant.
Such a bloody scene made Princess Jinrou close her eyes and dared not look on.
Chu Mu looked at this scene with astonishment on his face, completely confused as to why these more than 3,000 people refused to resist...
It felt like feeding those monsters with their own lives. What was even more astonishing was that the guards of the Celestial City stood on the towering city walls and turned a blind eye to the bloodbath of their compatriots. They were completely indifferent.
manner.
Soon, more than 3,000 people were eaten, and a shocking pool of blood appeared outside the city.
As for the monsters that ate living humans, the fierce glare in their eyes faded away, and some of them still had human intestines hanging from the corners of their mouths, as if they had returned to their own lairs contentedly.
The heavenly palace is like a fairyland, with white buildings, holy fairy aura, and a perfect silver moon. Chu Mu originally thought that this should be the so-called heavenly realm on earth. But not long after he stepped here, he saw the bloodiest,
It was such a barbaric scene that it was hard to understand why those people would give their lives to the monsters to gnaw at them wantonly.
"How could this happen...Why don't they fight? Even if they are invincible, the defenders of Tiancheng are so strong, why don't they come out to fight?" Princess Jinrou asked angrily.
"The moment they were eliminated, they were already dead. In your world, don't you often use livestock to feed wild beasts? Just don't treat them as human beings." Yu Suo said.
She remained expressionless, watching the whole process completely.
Her eyes were as indifferent as those of the guards in the Celestial City, as if everything was happening as a matter of course.
However, no matter how she pretended, Chu Mu could feel the fluctuations of her inner emotions, including anger, resentment, sadness, and helplessness!
Yusuo seemed to realize that Chu Mu was prying into her heart, and glanced at Chu Mu coldly.
The covenant of the soul exists, and some relatively obvious fluctuations of emotions are transmitted to each other. Chu Mu did not deliberately observe her emotions...
"Do you actually care about those people?" Chu Mu said.
Yu Suo hated Chu Mu asking such questions that touched the depths of her heart. She clenched her teeth and glared at Chu Mu fiercely: "So what if I don't care?"
"Why don't you save them?" Chu Mu continued to ask.
"Save? This is not a vast world. The only place where humans can survive is this unique piece of land in the sky. There are still countless things like those ferocious monsters in the land of heaven. They cannot be killed at all. They can't be destroyed.
Inexhaustible, and the speed of reproduction and growth is much faster than that of humans. People born in the Celestial City must receive strict training from an early age. Once they are shown to be weak, then they have no meaning in living. They
What they can do for Tiancheng and Tiangong is to use their bodies to feed those hungry monsters and prevent the city from being attacked," Yu Suo said.
Chu Mu remained silent.
Indeed, this Heavenly Palace is actually equivalent to a completely closed illusion. If the Heavenly Palace is always in danger of monster attacks, then the existence of the weak has almost zero meaning. Even if they want to escape, the land of Heaven is so big that they can escape.
Where?
"Have you done anything for them before?" Chu Mu asked.
Chu Mu had seen some of Yusuo's memories, which were very fragmented, and some of them seemed to be related to what he was seeing now.
Yusuo's purple eyes shone with a cold light.
In fact, what everyone who wears a mask fears most is having someone see through her innermost being. Especially someone like Yu Suo whose personality will change. But whether Yu Suo is cold and arrogant, determined or charming like the Queen of Good and Evil,
In fact, there is only one kind of indulgence in her true heart, and it is also the thing she least wants to be touched by others.
But there was someone who could see her nakedly and tightly guarded and wrapped up in everything.
This person was still someone she hated immensely.
After handing the pistil of the flower to Chu Mu and being unable to stand up again, Yu Suo really tried to get along with Chu Mu peacefully...
But there is no way, this man is really annoying! After helping him with so many things, he still doesn't know how to respect other people's sacred and inviolable privacy!
