Tang Yan sat down in silence, becoming more and more curious. Who is his mother? What kind of secret identity does she have? What kind of mission does she shoulder?
The royal mother of a clan should be announced to the public, receive worship from the whole clan, and receive blessings from the whole clan.
Why did she keep hiding?! The only people who saw her true appearance were the emperor and her father?!
"The mistress should still be alive. When your identity is announced to the world, young master, the mistress will return to you. Her identity is a mystery, and her hiding place is also a mystery. I have investigated it more than once, but to no avail."
Tang Yan originally thought he would get clues about his mother, but now he is even more confused.
Tang Zhibai said: "I understand your purpose of evolving the spirit pool, young master, and I agree with your adventure. The chaotic and turbulent Demon Spirit Clan needs your shock, and you need to wake them up completely.
Since the young master has chosen to come to Yixiantian and also to enter the Hualing Pond, it shows that young master you have an expectation deep in your heart, hoping that more people will recognize the late emperor.
The words I just said were to express my determination to you, young master, and to let you know that there are still people you can trust in this demon spirit tribe.
Here, there are still many people who choose to protect the Demon Spirit Clan. In fact, they have always been protecting the former emperor.
Because it was the Emperor who shaped the Demon Spirit Clan. Without the Emperor, the Demon Spirit Clan would never be what it is today. Every aspect here, everything here, is left by the Emperor. We choose to stick to it because we regard the Demon Spirit Clan as a
The late emperor."
"Are there... many such people?" Tang Yan weakly returned to the cold ground.
"There are many, many, many. From the Ethnic Affairs Council to the Military Affairs Council, from Yixiantian to the four major frontiers, if you look at the highest level, there are not dozens, but more than a dozen.
I do not deny that the current people are gradually beginning to accept Prince Cang and try to support Prince Cang. But when your identity is announced, many, many people will choose to support you. You can even take away many troops and take away many
clan elders, they may follow you south to join the alliance.
Prince Cang won't be back for a while, so we have at least two days to prepare.
I personally come forward and cooperate with your identity. I can gather many troops for you within two days and add a bargaining chip to the alliance's offensive and defensive battles. As long as you trust me, young master, and are willing to give me this opportunity."
Tang Yan looked at him steadily for a long time and shook his head weakly. Tang Zhibai in front of him was very excited, and his words were full of rebellion. He was completely different from the wise man he knew, so...
"Are you testing me? Are you probing my character? Are you testing the weight of the three words "demon spirit clan" in my heart?"
"I don't dare!" Tang Zhibai was a little more polite and solemnly said: "I am telling the truth!"
Tang Yan smiled casually: "It's okay to test me, I can accept it. What I can tell you is that you are wrong. I was once full of hatred, but from beginning to end, I never thought about destroying the Demon Spirit Clan. I never thought about it.
To divide it."
He could see that Tang Zhibai was testing him. Tang Zhibai was determining his true purpose of coming here and judging the importance of the Demon Spirit Clan in his mind. If Tang Yan agreed to Tang Zhibai's request, it meant that he was full of hatred.
My purpose of coming here is to split the Demon Spirit Clan, and I hope to destroy this most powerful clan of the human race through civil strife.
Just as he is judging Tang Zhibai, Tang Zhibai also needs to have an exclusive judgment for himself. Loyalty is loyalty, support is support, but it will never be blind. The more Tang Zhibai tests himself, the more it proves that he sincerely wants to protect himself.
.
Tang Zhibai shook his head and smiled: "Young Master, you have misunderstood me. I am not excited because I saw you, nor have I made any decisions eagerly, nor am I testing you to test you. None of this is necessary! None of this is necessary.
!
To be honest, as early as half a year ago, from the day I saw you, I started to think about it.
I have thought about this decision today and weighed it for half a year.
I sincerely want to bring you a group of loyal generals and counselors.
If you don’t come to Yixiantian this time, I will also go to the Alliance to find you.”
"Um??"
"One month ago, I took the initiative to propose military deployment to Western Xinjiang. At that moment, I had already made the decision. This military deployment in Western Xinjiang will be my last time to do my best for the Demon Spirit Clan. When the military deployment is fully completed, I will
He went south alone to pay a visit to the War Alliance, and together with the young master, he spent the difficult time of the War Alliance's attack and defense.
After the war alliance incident is over, I will recruit some soldiers from within the Demon Spirit Clan, and they will be stationed in the war alliance, injecting new strength into the scarred war alliance after the war, and completing all the work of the war alliance in the later stages of the war.
Leave it to them, including resisting the demons, and you... can cultivate with peace of mind."
Tang Yan stared deeply at Tang Zhibai. This time, he was really surprised and a little touched. The tight vigilance in his heart relaxed slightly.
He stared into Tang Zhibai's eyes, and what he saw was determination and clarity.
Thinking about his fierce performance at this moment, it is more like a kind of determination, a free and easy way to let go of all burdens.
Tang Zhibai met Tang Yan's gaze calmly. The two of them faced off silently for a long time, and then said again: "I understand what the young master means. You want to use the Spiritual Transformation Pond to shake the Demon Spirit Clan. You want to use that grand occasion to announce yourself.
's return.
But I... hope the young master will stop doing this.
I am loyal to the Demon Spirit Emperor and my mentor, the Imperial Priest, but I am also loyal to the Demon Spirit Clan.
Although the Northern Continent is stable now, it is only on the surface. The Demon Spirit Clan remains strong, but it is also on the surface. The Demon Spirit Clan cannot withstand violent civil strife. Once the civil strife breaks out and the four major territories are damaged, the Blood Demon Clan will never
If we miss the opportunity, when the time comes...our demon spirit tribe will surely decline in chaos.
I just made a fierce proposal to take away some soldiers for you within two days out of selfish motives.
If you don't come to Xiantiantian, I will go south alone and recruit soldiers later.
And now that you are here, we can speed up the process. I will privately announce the news of your return to the generals and clan elders who are loyal to the late emperor, and we will leave quietly. Even if there is turmoil in the later stage, it will not be a threat to the demon spirits.
The clan brought civil strife.
As for what kind of turmoil this will cause in the follow-up, and what kind of speculation it will cause from outsiders, I can handle it for you, young master, as long as you trust me."
From the beginning to the end, everything Tang Zhibai said were sincere words from the bottom of his heart. The suggestion that Tang Yan take away the generals was not a test, but to better protect the Demon Spirit Clan.
This was the neutral adjustment he made between protecting the late emperor and protecting the Demon Spirit Clan, and it was also the last time he paid for the Demon Spirit Clan.
Tang Yan was speechless and looked at Tang Zhibai with weak eyes.
These words touched him again and somewhat shook his persistence in this adventure.
"Young Master, stop it. Let him let go of what happened back then. After all, this place is the hard work of the late emperor. Every plant and tree is the late emperor's blessing. In fact, you don't want to destroy it. Let's leave here and start everything again.
.”
Tang Yan slowly shook his head: "Thank you for your kindness, but I will not change my decision. I will make the decision for the Hualing Pool. I am not here to ask for anyone or anything, I am just here to find an answer for my father.
Also for myself.
No matter what the final answer is, even if it is a disappointment or a regret, I will let it all go and will not cause harm to this place. Give me a reason to completely sever ties with the Demon Spirit Clan."
"The Spiritual Transformation Pond is scarier than you think. It's too dangerous for you to enter alone. Your situation may be very special, but because it is special, there is no precedent. Without precedent, there will be all kinds of unknowns. It is possible
It’s chance, it could be destruction.”
Tang Yan closed his eyes: "Thank you, thank you for coming, and thank you for being loyal to my father. But I have my decision and my own path. On this trip to the Demon Spirit Clan, I
I want to complete it by myself, no matter how much I put in, no matter how much I make a mistake, I will have no regrets.
Please respect me, don't interfere, don't help, I will bear everything by myself and complete it by myself."
Tang Zhibai stared at Tang Yan for a long time, and bowed deeply to Tang Yan: "Okay, I respect your decision. You can walk this road yourself."
But silently, he muttered to himself: "I also have my decision. No matter what the final result is, I will protect you and leave safely."
