A curling figure hiding behind a big tree almost cried, but a pair of generous palms tightly covered her lips. She turned around and saw a familiar and handsome face, the deep and clear black jade
Deep sorrow was imprinted in his eyes.
"Mingjing, I——" Shangguan Yiyun threw herself into Su Mingjing's arms, and she cried softly and suppressedly.
"Evian, I understand, I understand everything." Su Mingjing's eyes were filled with gleaming water. "Don't let Li'er see your crying face. This will make him feel even more uncomfortable."
He took her with him and they both left there.
Suye seemed to sense something. He suddenly turned around and glanced at the lush tree behind him.
"Ye'er, what's wrong?" Su Li's beautiful eyebrows showed a hint of confusion. He followed Su Ye's gaze and saw nothing.
"It's nothing, brother, let's go back." Suye's ice-blue eyes flickered, and he said with a faint smile.
On the cold hillside, Su Mingjing and Guan Yiyun were both silent.
They stood there for a long, long time.
Shangguan Yiyun stared straight into the distance, with no focus in her sight. She said with a dull expression: "Mingjing, is there another way? There must be another way in this world, right?" She is the most well-behaved.
My child, the kindest child, her Li'er, why is it hidden so deeply, so deeply, if she hadn't heard it with her own ears just now, she would never know it. Li'er, why is your mother so stupid, why is your mother so stupid?
Only now do I know that you also love Qing'er deeply.
Her Li'er was so distressed that she didn't know what to say. Why couldn't God be kind to her Li'er? Thinking of all these things, how could she not feel sad when she called Shangguan Evian?
Su Mingjing patted her back gently and remained silent. Some things are destined, and some things are not chosen. This is what an emperor should bear.
He couldn't help but hug Shangguan Evian tightly in his arms. I'm sorry, Evian, I'm sorry, he kept thinking silently in his heart. He was struggling with pain in his heart, and a deep pain passed through his eyes and his heart.
He felt that he shouldn't hide it from her. There was indeed another way, but - he gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind to speak out. "Actually, what Evian said is right. The only way to restrain the power of transformation is to abandon Li'er.
Besides this method, there is another method.”
Shangguan Yiyun's eyes suddenly lit up, she pulled his sleeve and said: "Is there any other way?"
"That is to enter the mysterious realm and practice the ninth level of the Netherworld magic." Su Mingjing said solemnly. But the only person who can break into the mysterious realm is Su Ye, because he is the son of the Netherworld Saint Demon Xueying.
With her blood flowing through her, she is also the most suitable candidate for practicing this skill.
However, once Suye practices the Netherworld Ninth Level Divine Art, he is also taking a huge risk. It means that both the jade and the stone will be destroyed. If he is not careful, his other son will be sacrificed.
And both Li'er and Ye'er were his cherished children. How could he bear to let Ye'er, who had been suffering from illness since childhood and suffered double physical and mental torture, go on a road that was almost impossible to return? He couldn't say anything.
Ah, as a father, he owes Ye'er a lot, too much.
When Shangguan Yiyun saw Su Mingjing's conflicted and struggling expression, she already understood.
The Su family had no choice in their fate, either to sacrifice this son or to sacrifice another son. She suddenly fell silent.
After a long time, she raised her head and said with tears: "Let's abandon Li'er." When saying this, Shangguan Yiyun almost used up all her strength.
She knew that to abandon Li'er, Li'er would only suffer a momentary pain, but to abandon Ye'er, he would have to endure the burning fire and the biting ice and snow. The pain was not something ordinary people could endure. She had no way of seeing Ye'er suffer this kind of pain.
Since you have to sacrifice a son no matter what, then choose the easier way.
Su Mingjing knew that Shangguan Yiyun's choice must be like this. He knew that she would never let Su Ye get involved in this kind of pain that was almost burning in flames. In her heart, Ye'er was also her son and her biological child.
Son. As for him, it was precisely because of her kindness and her willingness that he desperately fell in love with the woman he saw at first sight, a woman he would never regret in his life.
But precisely because of her success, he hated himself even more.
Li'er fell off a cliff and disappeared when he was ten years old. Now he finally returns home to reunite, but he has to face the situation of being sacrificed. As a father, he is really as useless as he is. How can he let his son
Sacrifice, but I am standing here helpless.
The strong current of grief and anger surging in Su Mingjing's heart, the powerful and suppressed pain, was forced into the palm of his hand. Leaning in Su Mingjing's arms, Shangguan Yiyun sensed a huge pressure of sadness and contradiction. She lowered her head in surprise and stared at
Su Mingjing's hand found that his palm seemed to have been pierced by a sharp object.
"Ding Jing, your hands -" she exclaimed.
"I'm fine, Evian. I'm sorry, it's my incompetence that makes you sad." As a father and a husband, Su Mingjing hated that he couldn't solve this kind of thing. He even hated the fate passed down from generation to generation in the Su family.
He thought it would never happen, but he didn't expect that the disaster would never leave Su's family.
Shangguan Yiyun hugged Su Mingjing tightly. She shook her head desperately with tears in her eyes. "No, no, that's not the case. Mingjing, you are a good husband and a good father. You have done enough. That's Su Mingjing."
The family has passed down a fate for three hundred years. As long as they are the descendants of the Su family, there is no way to escape this fate. Mirror, from the day I married you, I knew that one of my children would definitely encounter disaster.
.It’s just that I thought that the child in my belly who would not be born in the future had already eliminated this generation’s calamity, but I didn’t expect that Li’er would have to be sacrificed.” The tears in her eyes finally burst out of control.
"I'm sorry, Evian, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, it's all my fault. You didn't have to suffer this kind of pain." Su Mingjing closed her eyes in pain.
"No, no, Ming Jing, this is not your fault, no. In fact, the Su family is much happier than other royal families. At least we don't have to worry about fratricide, or the children's ambitions to provoke war. Our children
, all have a kind heart that embraces the world, which is the pride of us as parents. In fact, I should have blessed Li'er with a smile to save the common people, but I, but I-" But that person was her ten-month pregnancy after all.
What was born was the flesh that fell from her body. How could she not be sad?
"Evian, I understand, I understand everything." Su Mingjing's deep black eyes were filled with water. How could he not understand the pain of a mother about to lose her son? How could he not understand.
He hugged Shangguan Yiyun tightly, and her hot tears burned his chest, like a burning iron, leaving a mark of sadness on his chest.
But his heart was bleeding, it was the silent father's love.
The breeze blew across their hugging backs, and the black shadow, under the refraction of the light, stretched the old man...
A graceful figure flew into the air not far behind them.
The moment he landed on the ground, his ice-blue eyes were filled with water. Thinking of that sad figure, the fists at his side suddenly clenched.
Mother! In his heart, for the first time, he affectionately called mother to the mother who loved him since childhood.
Mother, don't worry, since there is another way, Ye'er will not let his eldest brother sacrifice himself. Mother, don't cry or be sad, Ye'er will definitely protect his eldest brother.
A flash of light flew through his ice-blue eyes, which instantly became firm and absolute.
In the pavilion, Fang Qing looked at the luminous pearl in her palm indifferently. There was an uneasy feeling in her heart that kept spreading. She touched the luminous pearl with her fingers, and her thoughts were wandering.
Why did the eldest brother suddenly give her such a precious gift? Why did he suddenly change the subject? Could it be him - Suddenly, Fang Qing's eyes trembled, and she stood up.
Does the elder brother already know about that matter?
Fang Qing's heart sank, and when she opened her palms, she stared blankly at Ye Mingzhu, uneasy. The laughter and crazy voices came intermittently into her ears. The unkempt woman in green clothes had a dog in the corner of her mouth.
Tai Cao, she stared at the night pearl in Fang Qing's hand with a smile.
"Sister, this thing is so beautiful. It lights up. It's so beautiful." She took the Night Pearl from Fang Qing's hand and started playing with it.
Fang Qing had long heard that Green Clothes had used Soul Loser and became confused and crazy. At that moment, she persuaded her nicely: "Little sister, please give this back to your sister, okay?" Fang Qing approached her cautiously,
She wanted to take back the Ye Mingzhu, but Lu Yi grabbed her hand and bit her hard, leaving bloody marks on the back of her hand.
Fang Qing looked at Lu Yi in pain, but she held on to the night pearl and glared fiercely at Fang Qing. Fang Qing was helpless and knew that she couldn't talk to her with common sense, so she said at that moment: "Little sister, sister, there is something here
What about something more beautiful? Come on, sister, let me exchange it with you, okay?" Fang Qing pulled out a delicate and small hairpin from her black hair and handed it to Lu Yi.
The green-dressed woman stared at the pearl hairpin in Fang Qing's hand with a silly smile, then looked at the luminous pearl in her hand, flipped it over, and then she grinned and clapped her hands and said, "Sister, this one is more beautiful, let's change it, change it." She took it.
Passing the pearl hairpin in Fang Qing's hand, he threw the luminous pearl forward high.
Fang Qing threw herself forward and rolled to the ground. Her arm brushed against the ground, and a pain seemed to spread to her arm.
Green clothes stood beside him and clapped his hands with a smile. "This is good, this is good-looking, big sister, here's another one."
Some guards chased after her in panic. They put up their green clothes and hurriedly apologized to Fang Qing: "Miss Fang, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." They walked down with the green clothes smiling and holding their hairpins facing the sun.
Fang Qing indifferently dusted herself off the ground and stood up. She opened her palms and smiled happily when she saw that Ye Mingzhu was safe and sound. Fortunately, her eldest brother, Ye Mingzhu, was fine, so she was relieved.
