The moonlight is like water, and the moonlight is like ink.
At midnight, the three Shangguan elders came to the Human Realm Association's headquarters in Beimeng City with a slightly uneasy look.
After signing the oath to serve the gods, the three of them have basically understood how vicious and harsh this oath is. In other words, their life and death are all determined by the thought of Emperor Shitian.
Even if hostility towards Emperor Shitian arises in their hearts, the Yangshen of the three of them will be on the verge of collapse.
The one who serves the gods, serves the gods, and enslaves them is their Yang God.
Therefore, in the previous Demon-Slaying Alliance station, when Huangfu Xiaotian mentioned that there was something wrong with the three of them's recent performance, Shangguanfeng did not dare to tell him directly.
Just because he couldn't tell his current situation at all, not to mention that he was carrying the entire Shangguan family behind him.
Regardless of whether they had their own selfish motives towards the Human World Society before, the family's sense of responsibility always comes first.
Boom, boom, boom.
Shangguan Feng breathed a long sigh of relief and knocked on the door in front of him.
After the door opened, the familiar mask and the conspicuous fiery red brocade clothes came into the eyes of the three people.
Ouyang Chili's tone was a little flat: "Three of you, Lord Heavenly King is in the conference hall now."
Shangguan Feng and the others took the initiative to bow, and then headed to the largest room in the courtyard with Ouyang Chili.
At this moment, Lin Mo was still chatting with Leng Chuluo. When he saw Shangguan Sanlao coming, he nodded slightly and motioned for the three of them to sit in the guest seats.
"You should know your current situation."
Hearing that slightly indifferent voice, Shangguan Feng and the other three exchanged glances, and nodded with a wry smile as if they were resigned to their fate.
"In this case, our next communication should be more harmonious."
Lin Mo was very satisfied with the attitude of Shangguan San Lao. He knew very well that the three of them must have a lot of unwillingness in their hearts, but from the moment they signed the oath, the relationship between the two was destined.
Therefore, Lin Mo didn't act like a courteous corporal like he did towards Ye Xubai and Yuan Haishan, because it was simply not necessary.
"I asked you to come here because of two issues. The first is the final battle that will follow. I need you to protect Asura's safety.
Prevent the surprise attack from the masters of the Yangshen Realm of the demon race on the opposite side."
Shangguan Feng stood up and bowed: "My Lord Heavenly King, I wonder if my Shangguan family will also participate in this final battle?"
Lin Mo shook his head: "The order of the Dimeng Realm is still in a state of chaos due to the new demon clan. All this needs to be managed by your clan members from the Shangguan Family.
Besides, if you, the Shangguan family, really go to the battlefield, you will most likely die in the hands of your own people without knowing why."
Shangguan Feng sighed. He understood what Lin Mo meant. This person did not refer to other forces in the Demon-Slaying Alliance. After all, there was a divine oath. It was almost impossible for the current Demon-Slaying Alliance to survive in the past three months.
There was internal fighting.
And those who may secretly attack the Shangguan family members are ordinary martial artists.
There are always some people who are dissatisfied with the outcome of the Shangguan family's trial, but because of the pressure from the human world, they don't dare to blatantly do some extreme behavior.
But if you go to the battlefield and everything is in chaos, it will be difficult to say.
Then Shangguan Feng bowed again: "Thank you, Lord Heaven, for taking care of my Shangguan family."
Shangguan Feng is also a sensible person. He knows that Emperor Shitian asked the Shangguan family to be responsible for dealing with the new demons in the Dimeng Realm, which was to protect the Shangguan family from the side.
In any case, although the reputation of the Shangguan family has been damaged, there have been no casualties among the clan members, and the family inheritance has been preserved. The three elders of Shangguan can further convince themselves.
As long as the family can continue smoothly, they will be happy to be slaves.
This may be one of the few redeeming features of the family.
"Second question, Ye Xubai."
Hearing this name, Shangguan Sanlao was a little confused at first, but after thinking about it, he understood that what Emperor Shitian wanted to ask was about the control of Ye Xubai's fate by the seven aristocratic families.
Immediately, Shangguan Feng was very cooperative and told the information he knew. Most of it overlapped with what Shangguan Feiyun said at that time. At least Lin Mo and the others did not hear any more valuable information.
"I heard that there is a rumor among the seven aristocratic families of yours that you jointly protect a god. I wonder what you three think of this rumor?" Dragon King Leng Chuluo on the side suddenly asked.
When Lin Mo heard Leng Chuluo mention the word god, he clearly sensed the obvious mood swings of Shangguan Sanlao through the oath of serving the gods.
However, in the eyes of Leng Chuluo and Ouyang Chili, although the three of them were surprised, these behaviors were within common sense.
Just when Shangguan Feng was about to speak, Lin Mo said first: "The three of you may not know much about the magical effect of the Oath of the God of Service, so you'd better be cautious about what you say next."
Shangguan Feng's expression became much more solemn, and then he took a deep breath and said: "Master Tianwang, this so-called god is indeed just a simple rumor.
If gods really exist, my Shangguan family and the Dongfang family and Murong family of the Mo Dynasty will not end up like this."
Lin Mo shook his head and looked at Shangguan Lei, who looked slightly nervous and subconsciously clenched his fists: "I think you should know more.
I was very satisfied with your attitude before, so I won't let the three of you do anything that goes against your will.
But if the three of them are too uncooperative on this issue, I will have no choice but to use some old-fashioned methods, such as killing the chicken to scare the monkey."
The tone was still so calm, even without any fluctuations, but Shangguan Feng and the other two people felt a chill from the bottom of their hearts spread crazily.
Seeing the three people looking slightly confused, Lin Mo was not impatient. Instead, he tapped the armrest of the seat rhythmically with his fingers.
Ta da, da da, da da.
As the beating rhythm became faster and faster, Shangguan Lei, who was the weakest, finally couldn't hold it in anymore and stood up directly and loudly said: "Yes, this rumor is true!
My Shangguan family did once seal a part of the so-called god, but due to various reasons, this god has left!"
Dragon King Leng Chuluo shook his head: "There are no traces of seals in the residence of your Shangguan family. I can still confirm this."
Shangguan Feng breathed a long sigh of relief, pulled Shangguan Lei's sleeve, and then took the initiative to say: "Because this kind of seal is a member of the direct line of my Shangguan family, and uses his own body as a container.
The sealer of this generation, Shangguan Feimeng, was induced by God's consciousness and has disappeared.
No matter how many of you I have, I don’t know. Lord Heavenly King, regarding the oath to serve the gods, the three of us have accepted our fate, but there are some things that the three of us cannot say, nor dare to say.
I sincerely ask for your understanding, Lord Heavenly King.”
Speaking of this, Shangguan Feng actually knelt down to show his surrender.
