A mother's love will never be exhausted, nor will his compassion.
Heulia remained silent, blocking Ning Lan behind her. Her white skirt flowed around her ankles with the wind and the clouds. She didn't know who she was protecting from the loneliness of being alone for many years.
The Salt Mother has heard the story of Munata's "Hand of the King" Akhtar. It is said that the King's Hand was redeemed by the demon god Harpas during the meat sacrifice, and he has just become one of the most powerful people in the Devatsi Continent.
.
The first thing Harpas did after rescuing Akhtar was to eliminate all participants and planners of the meat sacrifice, including the demon god who accepted the sacrifice, and ordered the destruction of all documents related to the meat sacrifice.
Materials and Secret Teachings.
It can be seen that the war lord deeply hates this kind of ceremony.
To the Rock King Morax, the behavior of his subordinate Ninglan was tantamount to treason. Even during the Demon God War when rituals collapsed and music collapsed, betrayal was an intolerable crime and could not be repaid even by ceding territory.
What's more, Heulia no longer has any land that she can give up.
Under the watchful eyes of the two gods Harpas and Morax, the only way to save the lives of Ning Lan and the children of Yin Yuan Hall was to hand over what Heulia was born with.
Freedom, dignity, or the person of the devil.
Heulia lowered her eyes, her salt lake-like eyes filled with soft waves that could not be turned away. She slightly bent her body, touched Ninglan's black hair between her ears, and then used her remaining arm to hold up the hem of her skirt.
, looking at Liyue Tianquan, who was hovering in mid-air with the help of Xianjia magic.
"You must be the current king of men in Hong Kong City, Tianquan Ningguang?"
Many demon gods have the ability to know and see. Heulia said the name of Ningguang, which made the Qianyan Army surrounding the booth tense up. Then they grasped their axes tightly and stepped forward in unison, hoping to scare the ancient demon.
Regrettably, the Thousand Rock Group, which was originally "a thousand-man formation, can defeat the devil", is now unable to even pick up the Thousand Rock Spear left by its predecessors, so naturally it has no deterrent effect.
Ning Guang also had a solemn expression and cold words. The power of the rock element condensed in the air was already at its peak, and it seemed that it would turn into bright rock crystals and pour out at the slightest touch: "Yes, I wonder if Miss Heulia has any advice?
"
After the death of Emperor Yanwang, Ningguang's attitude represented Liyue's diplomatic attitude. Naturally, she could not show any cowardice in the confrontation with the demon god.
After receiving an affirmative answer, Heulia did not hesitate too much. She calmly put her palms on her chest, bowed down, and knelt down towards where Ningguang was.
"My children, the laws written on high limit the natures to which other creatures are bound, but you are able to act by free decision, and I leave this decision to you that you may determine for yourselves
The limit of nature."
"I have placed you at the center of the world so that you can easily look around and see everything in the world. I created you, neither of the sky nor of the earth. You are your own casters and creators. You will carve yourselves and make yourself beloved.
's appearance."
"You can degrade your natural nature and become an animal; you can also sublimate your natural nature through the cause of your soul until you become a god or a saint."
"This is one of the few things I can do for you."
Heulia moved lightly, and even such a humiliating move was done extremely gracefully. There was almost no sound when her knees collided with the ground. Only the snow-white silver salt still shimmered and stirred up some dust, as if
In mourning for the loving mother of Yantu.
"Your Excellency Tianquan, I know that Ning Lan and Yin Yuan Hall's crimes may not be forgiven."
"But I am willing to use everything I have as repayment, and I beg you to spare everyone in Yinyuan Hall from the death penalty."
Heulia's eyebrows were downcast, completely lacking the power of the ancient demon god. She seemed like the most ordinary mother in Liyue, pleading for mercy for the mistakes her children had made.
Perhaps during the war between the jungle and the strong, Mother Salt's actions at this time were nothing, but for Ning Lan, who had long accepted the concept that "Lady Heulia is a powerful and benevolent god", it was like a bolt from the blue.
.
"Mother! Why are you doing this?! Morax is dead. As long as we kill Liyue Qixing, everything will be ours..."
Ninglan's tone was stern and helpless, but Heulia did not respond to the child's words. The look on her face was calm and determined. She straightened her back, pressed her palms on her abdomen, and took out a piece of paper full of years of erosion from her body.
A sense of salt cup and salt ruler.
The moment the ruler was taken out, the glitz and glamor faded from Heulia's body. The sunset that rested on the woman's eyebrows became dull and dull. The salt flowers surrounding her body gradually dissipated, and the deep wrinkles crawled bit by bit over hundreds of years.
Her temples, the ends of her eyes and her drooping cheeks were cast into three-dimensional shadows under the rich blood-colored candlelight.
"This is the power of salt. Even ordinary people can use it to ascend to the position of the devil."
Heulia turned her head and glanced at Ninglan, her eyes also covered with mist at dusk. She shook her head gently to comfort the overwhelmed Ninglan, and then her soft jaws waited for Ningguang's kiss.
decision.
But in fact, Ningguang suspended in the air and everyone in Liyue were even more shocked by Heulia's actions.
Ke Qing lowered her weapon slightly and raised her head to look at Ning Guang, while Gan Yu, who had experienced the demon war, did not relax at all. She had seen the cunning of the demon god in the battle following the Rock King Emperor, and she still held the ice spirit bead in her hand.
He watched Heulia kneeling on the ground warily.
Ning Guang was such a smart and intelligent person. She frowned slightly and quickly figured out the key.
Rather than saying that Heulia was pleading with her, it was better to say that she was pleading with Zhongli who was standing behind her and Famas who was standing next to Pantalone.
Ning Guang glanced slightly sideways and looked at Zhongli beside the traveler with his peripheral vision, only to find that Mr. Keqing had already quietly moved his body and walked to the other side of the banquet hall. Apparently he did not intend to face Heulia's kneeling and did not want to interfere with Ning Guang.
The decision of light.
The moment Heulia knelt down, Famas, who was sitting on the wall seat, threw the leftover cake back on the table. Like a spectator who had lost all interest, he lay down on the soft sofa specially provided by the Fools.
, remained silent.
At this moment, the corners of Pantalone's mouth showed an inappropriate upward arc, and her pursed lips trembled slightly.
The banker first glanced at the silent Famas, and then turned his gaze to Zhongli, as if he was enduring the ridicule and contempt from his heart.
He had read historical records about Heulia in many classics preserved in the Hermitage.
Although history is always distorted and distorted in the long river of time, the few words captured by Pantalone may not be the truth, but from many details that ordinary people do not pay attention to, the big banker analyzed that Heuli
Perhaps the cause of Ya's death was not just the betrayal of the king of the salt people.
The sword used to assassinate Heulia was a gift from Harpas, and the will of Morax remained in the land-ceding contract signed between Heulia and Chilong.
It's a pity that the truth about the past era is probably only known to Famas, Zhongli and Heulia who are the parties involved.
But now the three demon gods present all remained silent, silently waiting for Ning Guang to make his verdict.
