Seeing that Zhu Yuan's outstretched hand was about to touch Chu Qingxiao's heart.
But at this moment, a hand suddenly stretched out and stopped in front of Chu Qingxiao.
It's Chu Zhaozhao.
"Chu Qingxiao! Wake up!"
"He has been lying to you from beginning to end! Can't you hear it?"
"If you stay here, your souls will be corroded by the candlelight sooner or later and you will become their slaves! Look at those people, they are not even alive at all!" Chu Zhaozhao shouted loudly towards Chu Qingxiao.
To become a convert of Zhu Yin, you need to hand over a ray of your soul. From then on, life and death are held in Zhu Yin's hands. At the same time, as long as Zhu Yin is willing, he can indeed control them to do anything!
Zhu Yuan frowned, and the black dragon on the dome also roared.
Obviously, the god was dissatisfied with Chu Zhaozhao's interference.
Zhu Yin's displeasure was like an oracle to Zhu Yuan.
There was a fierce light in Zhu Yuan's eyes. He turned his wrist, and the hand that was going towards Chu Qingxiao's chest suddenly changed its direction. At this time, he stretched out his hand and pinched Chu Zhaozhao's neck.
He exerted force with his palms and lifted Chu Zhaozhao's body. At this moment, the evil energy from the sky gathered and was about to rush towards Chu Zhaozhao's body.
"Miss Chu, am I too kind? Do you think you can challenge the majesty of my god at will?" Zhu Yuan narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice.
Chu Zhaozhao did not respond.
To be precise, there is no way to respond.
Her neck was pinched tightly, making it difficult to breathe. At the same time, there was a huge amount of evil energy that was constantly eroding away. Under such a situation, she couldn't make a sound at all, and could only struggle while fighting.
Staring at Chu Qingxiao.
"Let her go." At this moment, Chu Qingxiao's voice suddenly sounded.
The young man turned his head and looked at Zhu Yuan.
Zhu Yuan frowned slightly, but had no intention of obeying Chu Qingxiao.
"Let her go, and I will hand over the Zhuyin Divine Blood." Chu Qingxiao said again.
The moment these words were spoken, Zhu Yuan's frown relaxed and a smile appeared on his face.
He squeezed the hand on Chu Zhaozhao's neck and immediately let go.
Chu Zhaozhao fell to the ground with a plop.
She was panting heavily, covering her neck with her hands, and her face was very pale, as if she had not recovered from the situation where she had just brushed past death.
"It seems that after just a few days of getting along, you don't know how much this girl holds in your heart."
Zhu Yuan squinted his eyes and said so, with a hint of joking in his brows. He added: "But this is not a big problem. I can help you erase her memory and leave her in this eternal night world."
.”
"What kind of stories do you like?"
"The daughter of a rich family falls in love with a poor boy? Or is she a childhood sweetheart? Or maybe there is a cliché drama where a hero saves a beauty and then she agrees to marry him?"
Facing Zhu Yuan's teasing, Chu Qingxiao's expression was calm, and he repeated: "What I said is, let her go."
Zhu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and Chu Zhaozhao on the side also came to his senses and looked at Chu Qingxiao in disbelief.
"This is not a good idea."
Zhu Yuan's eyebrows darkened, and he whispered: "You must understand that your life and death are now tied to my god."
"She is a disciple of Tianxuan Mountain. Once she leaves this place and brings this news back to Tianxuan Mountain, the human race will definitely send a large army to encircle and suppress her."
"My God has just woken up, and I may be unable to withstand it. Once he falls into deep sleep again, the Eternal Night Realm will be shattered. You..."
"Let her go and I'll give you the divine blood, otherwise we'll die." Chu Qingxiao interrupted Zhu Yuan at this moment.
"I'm not discussing with you, I'm giving you a choice. Now, it's your turn to make a decision."
Chu Qingxiao's voice was low, but it was wrapped in a kind of determination that was as solid as gold and stone.
Zhu Yuan noticed something strange in the voice and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Chu Qingxiao.
I saw that the young man who was almost emotionally depressed just now seemed to have recovered.
His eyes were calm, and the expression on his face was calm. It was difficult to see his inner sorrow and joy at this moment.
But Zhu Yuan read that the other party was unquestionably firm in this decision.
He knows Chu Qingxiao very well.
To some extent, he even understood Chu Qingxiao better than himself.
In the past twelve years, he has seen every struggle, every self-doubt, and every cry and roar in despair.
He is not much different from most ordinary people, even in many cases, he seems indecisive and always wants to consider everyone's feelings.
But whenever he really makes a decision, that decision cannot be shaken by anyone or anything.
Zhu Yuan's heart sank at that moment.
According to his original plan, Zhu Yin was resurrected, and tens of thousands of dead souls in Wuling City became believers.
After transforming them into Zhuyin's warriors, they can occupy several surrounding cities in a short period of time, further strengthening the newly revived True God.
At the same time, the resurrection of True God Zhuyin will definitely give the clansmen in the Black Abyss the hope of reviving the Zhuyin clan. Under the call of the True God, all clans can unite again. If it works properly, they can completely defeat the human race before the Royal Court reacts.
Turn the entire Muzhou into a dark realm.
At this point, there is the possibility of taking over the Central Plains and regaining the throne of God.
But once Chu Zhaozhao leaves, it will be a huge obstacle to his plan.
After the True God is resurrected, he needs to return to the Black Abyss, combine the power within Zhuyin, and hibernate in secret. After the vigilance generated by the human race disappears, he can then launch his plan to devour Muzhou.
This will take years or even decades.
But compared to the result of the true god falling into deep sleep again, although such conditions are harsh, they are still within the range that Zhu Yuan can accept.
Therefore, after a brief hesitation, Zhu Yuan finally nodded.
But Chu Zhaozhao stood up at this moment and said anxiously: "Chu Qingxiao! I admit... I really just wanted to leave here at the beginning!"
"But after getting along with each other these days, I know that Uncle Chu and Uncle Sun are good people. Even if they are in the quagmire, they are willing to spend their only money to treat my illness."
"Although Wang Che is an annoying young man who loves success and is self-righteous, he also has a kind side, and many people in the world have no morals."
"And Mr. Luo, and Mr. Cao, you are all very good people."
"I want to tell you the truth, but I don't know how to speak. I don't even know whether telling the truth will be a good thing or a bad thing for you..."
Chu Zhaozhao was a little incoherent. She was anxious to express her feelings, but the more anxious she was, the more she couldn't express herself...
Chu Qingxiao interrupted her: "Miss Chu."
He called softly, Chu Zhaozhao was stunned, and the explanation in his mouth stopped abruptly.
She looked up at Chu Qingxiao and saw a faint smile on the young man's face.
"I understand you, and I don't hate you."
"You don't have to feel indebted, just go away, you don't belong here."
After Chu Qingxiao said this, he glanced sideways at Zhu Yuan beside him. Zhu Yuan certainly understood what he meant.
He waved his hand at this moment, and the space not far away suddenly distorted, and an exit in the circular vortex appeared out of thin air. Through the gap, a dilapidated city could be vaguely seen outside.
Chu Zhaozhao looked at the exit in front of her. It was something she had dreamed of, but at this moment, her eyes suddenly turned red.
She turned around and grabbed Chu Qingxiao's shoulders.
"Chu Qingxiao, everything here is fake."
"The Eternal Night Realm is just a more realistic illusion!"
"Those who are dead are dead, they can't live!"
"Staying in such an illusion, your spiritual intelligence will be eroded by Zhu Yin step by step, and sooner or later you will become the nourishment and puppet of Zhu Yin. Look at them, some of them are about to become walking zombies!"
"There is no pie in the sky in this world."
"Anything that seems beautiful has a price! Staying here is just a temporary pleasure, and it's just drinking poison to quench your thirst! Do you understand!?"
She tried hard to persuade the young man in front of her to change his mind, but no matter how excited she was, the expression on Chu Qingxiao's face was so calm that there was no wave.
"I understand everything." He said, looking directly into Chu Zhaozhao's eyes.
"But what Zhu Yuan said is quite right."
"No one cares about us."
"We have been besieged by Zhuyin for half a year, and no one wants to come and help us."
"We have been locked up in this realm of eternal night for twelve springs and autumns, and no one has even looked at us."
"We didn't kneel down at the beginning and grovel to the candlelight. We resisted. Even teenagers picked up swords and fought against monsters that could tear them apart with one hand.
!”
Chu Qingxiao's voice was suddenly raised at this moment, and his expression was excited, as if he wanted to vent all the grievances and anguish in his heart!
"Even though we were imprisoned in the eternal night world, we fought hard! As long as there is even one person who comes here!"
"Even if it's just one person... maybe the ending won't be like this..."
"Can……"
"No one comes, no one cares about us."
He lowered his head and his tone suddenly became lower.
"We in Wuling City are not rich, and we have not produced any big shots."
"But we are also the people of Dayu..."
"In the third year of Qingyuan, during the war with the Northern Wei Dynasty, we lost more than 60 people, but only three came back alive."
"In the seventh year of Qingyuan, there was a severe drought in Liangzhou. We in Wuling only had 20,000 households, but we donated 6,000 taels of silver..."
"We are worthy of the world, but the world doesn't want us..."
"Maybe everything here is fake."
"But at least he looks nice enough."
"Since our ending is destined to be ashes, why not have some fun before that ending comes?"
Chu Qingxiao's tone gradually became calmer, as if he had understood everything, and there was no longer any turmoil in his heart.
Chu Zhaozhao's body was trembling: "But...but you are still alive, you..."
"Alive?" Chu Qingxiao smiled bitterly.
"The price of my life is to let them die again."
"Then go alone and face the world that you have missed for twelve years..."
"I'm sorry, I'm not that brave."
Chu Qingxiao sighed in dismay, as if accepting his fate.
"Let's go, Miss Chu."
"If you can hurry up, you may be able to bring this news to you big shots in Tianxuan Mountain before Zhuyin attacks other cities. But that is your business, I don't care anymore."
"Now, I just want to be a coward, pretend that all this has never happened, and live in Wuling City, which I think is real, until the day comes when it turns to ashes."
"oh……"
Having said this, he suddenly paused, as if something suddenly sounded, and then continued.
"By the way, there is also Nian Shuang."
"I know she's not having a good life. But unfortunately, her brother Qingxiao can't help her anymore. Please say sorry to her for me."
"She can't live in the nightmare of Wuling City forever."
"Let her try to open the door in her heart."
"Don't let it close."
After saying this, he reached out and patted Chu Zhaozhao's shoulder gently as a farewell.
