The entire ceremony was carried out under the command of the salute officer. In the Jinluan Hall, Gong Yun was proud and not angry. When he looked down at the officials, his powerful aura was revealed, which shocked everyone present.
In front of the square hall, a sound like a roaring mountain and a tsunami erupted, "I pay homage to His Majesty the Emperor. Long live His Majesty, Long live His Majesty."
"I pay my respects to Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty, Long live Your Majesty." The head of the Manmin Mansion came to congratulate him several times, and everything was peaceful.
At this moment, only King Yan stood gloomily in the corner and bowed his head, reluctantly watching him ascend to the top of the dragon seat and receive the worship of his ministers.
Compared to the peace of the Imperial Palace, Netherworld Mansion seemed unusually deserted.
In the pavilion, a handsome and handsome man was sitting quietly. He leaned on the stone pillar and looked at the scenery outside the pavilion.
As the sun sets, a golden light shines on the lake, and layers of ripples rise with the wind. Accompanied by the jumping sunlight, it agitates Bei Mingye's troubled mood.
Within just a few months, he became upset and restless, as if he had forgotten something, lost something, or was missing something.
He stood up slowly, stood with his hands behind his hands, and walked freely in the pavilion, but his eyes fell in the distance, deep and profound.
After walking a few steps, he sat back angrily, reluctantly picked up the book in his hand, and flipped through a few pages at random. Although his eyes fell on the book, his mind was far away...
"Bei Mingye, you have never seen a woman like me who never gives in to you be curious."
"I admit, you are indeed very charming. As long as you hook your fingers, thousands of girls will crawl at your feet."
"However, that person does not include me, nor does he charm me so beautifully..." The woman's clear voice echoed in his ears, and a smile slowly bloomed in her evil peach blossom eyes.
Ever since that girl left Netherworld Mansion, his heart began to feel different. The girl's departure only lasted a few months, but it made him restless and unable to sleep at night.
He walked up to the tea table, sat down slowly, and began to play with the tea set slowly and with a focused look, as if he was doing an extremely meticulous job.
However, no matter how he resisted or tried to hide it, it was in vain for him to feel the discomfort in his heart. It was a heart-wrenching, unbearable, and uncontrollable aching pain.
He thought he was a heartless person, he thought he could maintain a cold heart and not be moved by or even affected by any woman.
But... all this is not what he thought!
"Master?" Yan Lie's voice came out of nowhere, startling Bei Mingye who was sitting aside and his thoughts were wandering to nowhere.
Bei Mingye glanced at him and said nothing.
"Master, I think you have changed a lot. Ever since that woman left Netherworld Palace, you have changed..." In fact, you have become moody. In this case, he can only think about it silently in his heart, but he doesn't
Dare to speak out.
Yan Lie was extremely reluctant to admit it, but he had to say that if this continued, the master would be in danger.
"In my master's heart, I never take any woman seriously, and no woman can occupy your heart like this. However, that woman is an exception. She has entered your heart like this."
"Master, we are not the same as her..." Yan Lie bravely reminded.
"Okay, stop talking. I know what you are worried about." Hearing what his subordinate said, he suddenly became enlightened and felt like waking up from a dream.
Only that girl could overturn his emotions, confuse his thoughts and even make him restless.
It turns out that the feeling of missing someone is so heartbreaking and bitter, like a cup of burning liquor running on the tip of the tongue.
Yan Lie knew that he could not persuade him, so he had no choice but to remain silent.
Bei Mingye glanced at him, turned around slowly, turned away from him and asked solemnly: "What did you find out that girl is doing now?"
Yan Lie sighed secretly and replied: "Back to the master, my subordinates have found out that Princess Wulie of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was poisoned. They suspected that it was Shu Yao. Moreover, Shu Yao was forced by the Northern Zhou Kingdom and the King of Yan to take care of the poisoned Princess Wulie.
Go find the antidote."
When Bei Mingye heard this, his eyebrows moved slightly, he opened the folding fan and said softly: "Isn't there no antidote for Daqing Kingdom? Where else do I need to find the medicine?"
Yan Lie's face was solemn, thinking about what to say, but when faced with the cold look from Bei Mingye, he was so shocked that he even hesitated to speak, "Yes... um..."
Bei Mingye frowned, and his voice suddenly became a few degrees colder, "Where is it that allows you to reply with such sparkling words? Where is it? Tell the truth."
"Yes, Master." Yan Lie paused and said in a deep voice, "It's the Demon Realm Valley."
"What did you say?" Bei Mingye suddenly turned around, his charming and handsome face suddenly changed color, and his pair of peach blossom eyes were full of shock and disbelief.
Yan Lie felt uneasy in his heart, and his palms were already wet with sweat, "Master, Master, you heard it right, it's the Demon Realm Valley."
He understood that the beasts gathered in the Demon Valley were extremely fierce and extremely dangerous. As long as a person entered, there would be no return. The master was obsessed with the woman and knew that she was in danger, so he did not know what stupid things he would do.
Bei Mingye took a few steps forward and said in a cold voice: "What kind of poison did the princess have that requires her to go to such a dangerous place to find it?"
"I heard from the spies that it is the Banished Immortal Powder. If you want to detoxify it, you need to obtain two kinds of spiritual grass from the Demon Realm Valley, one is the Ice Spirit Flame Grass, and the other is the Withered Blood Grass."
When Bei Mingye heard this, his pair of peach blossom eyes couldn't help but narrowed, and a cold light seemed to shoot out from his eyes. These two kinds of sacred herbs are definitely not available to ordinary people. This move is to kill that girl!
Bei Mingye was furious, "How can that be unreasonable? It's clearly a trap. They want to put that girl to death. Can't even Gong Yun'ao see that?"
"As smart as he is, of course he can see it, but in the face of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the King of Yan, he has nothing to do. Moreover, Shu Yao also agreed and has been setting off for a few days..."
"What?" Bei Mingye's pupils were like an earthquake. Is this girl going to die?
"The King of Yan really did everything he could to prevent Gong Yun'ao from ascending the throne. Either the Northern Zhou Dynasty was colluding with the King of Yan, or the Northern Zhou Dynasty was being used by the King of Yan." In an instant, Bei Mingye's coldness leaked out, "Haha
!He actually agreed.”
In front of the throne of Jiangshan, Gong Yun'ao still gave up on the girl. It seemed that the girl was not that important in his heart! If it was true love, how could he let her take risks, and there would be no return from the Demon Valley???
Gong Yunao, this time, I will never give in.
Seeing that his master was a little abnormal, Yan Lie felt uneasy in his heart. Immediately, he heard Bei Mingye say to him: "Let's go."
"Where are we going?" Yan Lie followed closely.
"Devil Valley." Bei Mingye said directly without turning his head, and Yan Lie was so frightened that he froze on the spot.
Yan Lie's eyes were filled with shock and he said anxiously: "Master, no. The Demonic Valley is beyond the reach of humans. There is no way out but death!"
"I have never seen anything in the Demon Realm Valley. I would like to see it. Is it really as scary as what "Foreign Object Chronicles" says? It's so scary that I'd be embarrassed to talk about it."
When Yan Lie heard this, his expression changed with fear, "Master?! You must not..." Although he was known as Young Master Wu Jue in the world, how could a mortal go to such a terrifying place?
Bei Mingye paused, turned sideways, and asked coldly: "Are you the master or am I the master? Now you are my master?"
Bei Mingye's silent peach blossom eyes were unusually cold, as if there was an invisible pressure that made him unable to lift his head. "I know my mistake. I overstepped my bounds. Everything is subject to the master's orders."
"That being the case, the experts who have been counted are gathered in the meeting hall and are ready to go immediately." Bei Mingye's cold voice paused for a moment, as if he thought of something, and then said: "And... order someone to find out, that Wu Lie
The signs of the princess being poisoned, I suspect it is not the Immortal Banishing Powder." After he explained, he turned and left.
His abrupt behavior made him find a very ridiculous excuse for himself afterwards: in order to prevent this emotion from overflowing and tormenting him, he wanted to see Shu Yao in person. Perhaps, seeing her die in the Demon Valley would put him at ease.
He would rather believe that he went to collect the body of the girl than believe that he had different feelings for Shu Yao.
However, Yan Lie could clearly see that his master wanted to save the girl.
The top of the Demon Valley has been neglected for thousands of years. The dead trees have been buried underground for a long time, emitting a miasma that can cause coma. Over time, people will become comatose and have hallucinations.
The white mist was so vast and miasmatic that it was almost impossible to see the road ahead, and it was so blurry that the figures standing in front of them were blurry. Shu Yao frowned slightly and said warily: "Everyone, follow one by one, don't get lost."
"Yes." Everyone responded immediately.
"Yao'er, just stay with me and I'll protect you." Vice General Shi seized the time and followed him again.
At this time, a big white hand came out from nowhere, grabbed Vice General Shi's long hair and pulled it back, making Vice General Shi grin and say, "Who is it? You're pulling my hair out again."
Because the white fog was so thick, Vice General Shi turned around subconsciously and couldn't see who was collecting it. However, he knew in his heart that there was no one else in this team except Feng Chen.
Shu Yao was too lazy to pay attention to the narcissist like him. After giving him a look, she tightened her grip on the horse's belly, drove the horse away, and distanced herself from him.
A gust of wind blew from nowhere, causing the white fog in front to thin slightly, and some scenery could be seen.
At this time, everyone discovered that the place was overgrown with rocks and barren, with not a single blade of grass growing.
Even the ground is dry and there is deathly silence everywhere.
After walking for a while, it was still the same. The ground was cracked and even the moss was gone. There was also an inexplicable smell in the air, but it didn't look like miasma.
After a while, the fog gradually dissipated and the vision became clear.
Several huge trees reaching the sky appeared in front of us, unattainable and several feet thick. The bark was as rugged as the scales of a dragon and snake, vigorous and simple, with the breath of time.
"What a big tree...it will take a thousand years to grow!"
Everyone was stunned. They had never seen such a vigorous tree.
Looking up, there are no leaves in sight. They are all white and layer upon layer, like flowing clouds entwining or accumulation of clouds and mist.
The hazy and crystal white color, like the purest snow, is piled on the trees, like a dream, revealing the ethereal atmosphere of immortality.
The flowers all over the tree are white without any variegation. They are like strands of thin threads. When they unfold little by little, it seems as if the sea of clouds all over the sky are accumulating here.
When the wind blows, it sways gently.
The white flowers all over the tree were fluttering, and the little guard next to Liang Jinghuan looked at it as if he was possessed, and exclaimed, "It smells so good!"
Then, the body moved forward involuntarily until it was under the tree.
He took a sip, his face full of intoxication.
Stroking the tree trunk gently, my fingertips brushed over the old bark like scales.
As if feeling something, the white clouds on the trees were slowly falling, and within a few breaths, a few fell on Lin Cong's face.
After a while, the ball of cotton wadding automatically separated into several thin white cotton wadding.
Bounce and roll on his face.
"Damn, what a big marshmallow!" Feng Chen looked envious and wanted to run over and hug one.
However, he was stopped by Shu Yao, who had sharp eyes and quick hands. He was a little confused and asked, "Boss?"
Shu Yao didn't look at him, but her eyes were fixed on the white clouds, her eyes full of vigilance, and her face was terrifyingly calm.
The woman's intuition told her that there was something wrong with this thing!
