In the quiet courtyard in the middle of the lake, Emperor Xiao Yan looked through the open window toward Jiankang City shrouded in the sunset.
In winter, it gets dark very early in the south, and the sunset time is shorter than in summer.
Different from summer, the silver-covered Jiankang City has a solemn atmosphere that is difficult to describe in words, especially even the top of the tower of the Buddhist temple in the distance is covered with white snow. At this time, the brilliance of the setting sun is shining on it, and even more
There is a kind of beauty that is difficult to describe in words.
The condition of Emperor Xiao Yan who was imprisoned in the Jingyuan in the middle of the lake was naturally much better than when he was imprisoned at the beginning. In the eyes of all the courtiers who were loyal to him, the condition was naturally much better.
In addition to the fact that his dietary needs have become simpler, from two meals a day at the beginning to one meal every two days now, Xiao Yan is no longer the same as he was at the beginning and does not want to talk to anyone.
Don't care about anything happening outside.
In the past ten days or so, although he has eaten less and less and has lost a lot of weight, his aura has become more stable and calm.
In the eyes of all the practitioners in the palace who were most familiar with him, Emperor Xiao Yan at this time had already begun a special kind of hard training.
His requirements for food and life were reduced to the minimum, and he spent more time thinking.
The current emperor Xiao Yan would even sometimes ask people he wanted to see about things. He did not express any opinions or orders. Even when he mentioned the names of Lin Yi and others, he seemed to be concerned about the needs of food and life.
He seemed to be able to remain calm even when it reached its lowest point, to the point where he was angry even though he had no extra energy.
When he heard that during these days, Tie Cejun showed force in an almost barbaric way, suppressed the objections of the powerful, and then began to search for some special spiritual books from all the spiritual places in the Southern Dynasties, he asked even more questions.
A little more.
So when he was looking at the afterglow of the setting sun, a previous worshiper from his palace got his permission and entered the tranquil courtyard in the middle of the lake.
"After asking around clearly, those classics should be sent to Lin Yi. Most of those classics are related to the energy of the stars. It seems that Lin Yi's cultivation method has reached a certain bottleneck at this time. He needs to use some unique energy of the stars.
But I can’t seem to find a way to exploit it.”
This priest had met him several times in Huxin Jingyuan, so he was very familiar with the way he talked to Xiao Yan now. He had almost no unnecessary words, and just told Xiao Yan the news he had learned very simply.
"Use the energy of the stars?"
Xiao Yan's eyes were still on the snow-covered eaves of Jiankang City. Although his tone was questioning, his tone was extremely calm, without any joy or anger. In fact, the most practice he had done these days was not related to
The cultivation of true energy that enhances strength is not the understanding of certain true energy methods. What he practices most is Buddhist scriptures that have nothing to do with fighting.
He fell into his own hell, and now after putting aside those distracting thoughts step by step, he gradually pulled himself out of that quagmire.
Eating less and thinking about less things did not make him sluggish. On the contrary, when he was thinking about things, he felt that his whole body and thoughts were very light, and his thoughts were clearer than usual.
"I heard that some practitioners among the survivors of the Northern Wei Dynasty are the best at using the vitality of the stars. Since Yuan Yan is a close friend with him, he may be able to get some of the things he needs from the Northern Wei Dynasty, but maybe those are not enough."
He went on to say this. When the worshiper was stunned and didn't know what he meant, he had already continued, "He is the master of the sword pavilion. There are many things that need to be dealt with urgently in Dangxiang and the Northern Wei Dynasty.
But he is busy with this kind of practice at this time. There is only one possibility to break through the barrier. That is, they feel that as long as the Demon Sect appears again, they will not be able to cope with it with their strength. He is in a hurry to practice in order to fight against the Demon Sect.
means."
The worshiper's face was a bit stunned. He had seen Xiao Yan every two or three days in the past ten days. Every time he saw Xiao Yan, he felt that Xiao Yan was very different from before. Especially today, he felt that Xiao Yan was very different from before.
Yan can even face the Demon Sect calmly.
Before this, he had clearly felt the fear, helplessness and despair that Xiao Yan felt when he thought of the Demon Sect.
The current Xiao Yan may not be the Xiao Yan in his heyday, and he is even less likely to be the opponent of the Demon Sect, but at this time, he can't feel the emotions of fear and despair from Xiao Yan.
In the eyes of all the courtiers loyal to the emperor in Jiankang City, the person who brought huge and rapid changes to Xiao Yan was the old monk who swept here once, but they were all very sure that the old monk
Monks are not even practitioners.
And they were very sure that it would be difficult for just a few words to completely change Xiao Yan's state of mind at that time.
Maybe emotions can change emotions.
They couldn't understand the old monk's practice.
"The Empress Dowager of the Northern Wei Dynasty also died, and Helan Heiyun, a practitioner who was previously loyal to the Demon Sect, spread a lot of news on the border of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Later, based on the news spread by other parties, the Demon Sect was in Guangming that year
The Shengzong obtained the Destiny Blood Box was only an arrangement by the descendants related to the You Dynasty. When the Demon Sect was killing people in the Northern Wei Dynasty, it was controlled by those people, but the Demon Sect finally got rid of the control of those people." The worshiper looked at it.
Looking at Xiao Yan's back, I intuitively felt that it would be right to tell him more things today.
"So behind the Demon Sect, there are actually higher-level manipulators." Xiao Yan's face finally showed some obvious emotional changes, and a wry smile flowed from the corner of his mouth.
He thought of the old woman in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and also thought of the emperor in the Northern Wei Dynasty who had been fighting with him for many years, that admirable and hateful opponent.
What came to his mind at this time was that although the emperor was in the Imperial Palace of the Northern Wei Dynasty, when he looked at Luoyang, the imperial city of the Northern Wei Dynasty, he would probably feel the same as himself.
The worshiper waited quietly, waiting for Xiao Yan to ask more questions.
However, what surprised him was that Xiao Yan did not delve into the mysterious powers behind the Demon Sect related to Emperor You.
Just while looking at Xiao Yan's back and waiting quietly, the worshiper was gradually infected by Xiao Yan's emotions, and he somewhat understood what Xiao Yan was thinking at this time.
No matter who the mysterious forces related to Emperor You are, at this moment, Xiao Yan thought, I am afraid that those people will no longer be able to control the Demon Sect, a beast that has escaped their control.
The enemy that the Southern Dynasties and the Northern Wei had to face in the end was probably not the mysterious force related to Emperor You, but the Demon Sect in the end.
"If you have the chance, let's see clearly what kind of hurdle Lin Yi has encountered."
Xiao Yan's voice sounded again.
At this time, the afterglow of the sunset had disappeared, and darkness began to descend on the entire Jiankang City.
The worshiper's body trembled slightly, and he stopped talking, and just bowed seriously to Xiao Yan.
This is Xiao Yan's first order, or request, in many days. (To be continued)
