Ever since Yi Lin secretly returned to Qingdu and hung the heads of two princes on the city wall, the haze of the Apocalypse Assassin finally shone here, causing ordinary people to hide at home and not dare to walk around at will.
The Apocalypse Assassin has a notorious reputation, and the rumors are getting more and more outrageous, and he is rumored to be a murderous devil.
Although this is the result of Yi Lin's initiative,
But recently, Yilin gradually felt like there was a huge stone pressing on his chest while walking on the road, making him unable to breathe smoothly and feeling uncomfortable in his chest.
At first he thought it was caused by his illness,
But later, Yi Lin accidentally looked up at the sky and found that there was always a dark cloud following vaguely above her head, which made Yi Lin vaguely understand something.
"It's what the monks call 'karma', or 'destiny', and it's what Green calls 'reason'."
Yi Lin suddenly understood.
He is obsessed with this world.
This should be impossible.
No matter how he comes,
How many grievances and hatreds he has caused in this world,
How many connections has he made with people in this world?
But in essence, they are all "apostles" from another world.
With the help of "Xi Paradise", the apostles traveled through time and space like a pack of wolves, reaching all realms and completing their missions.
The apostles are destined to be passers-by.
But as Yilin gets closer and closer to the center of the whirlpool, he begins to feel that he is "entangled" in this "world" and has a sense of oppression that he cannot help but feel trapped in the general trend.
At this moment, he still doesn't understand the consequences of being "entangled" in a world that is both strange and familiar.
But if this consequence is what Xiao Xi has planned for five thousand years, just to save his relatives and friends in reality, no matter what fate he will end up in, after these three reincarnations are over, Yi Lin is willing to do it as long as he can go back alive.
Willing to kill, willing to taste.
"In this life, I am destined to be struck by lightning from the sky as a 'great evil person'."
Yi Lin returned to Qingdu and looked at the once prosperous streets that had now turned into deserted streets. She laughed at herself, hid herself, and ran straight to the palace.
After careful consideration for this trip, he had several outcomes in mind.
Within Qingdu,
Let alone the common people, there are no soldiers patrolling the city.
The Daqian Dynasty was fighting a last-ditch battle. The enemy was about to approach the city. The commander-in-chief brought the remaining elite troops to the front line. The Qing capital was empty and it could be said that it was completely undefended.
Now King Zhennan only needs to send a team of assassins to sneak into Qingdu, and they can easily capture this ancient capital.
Now, with the frontline fighting in close combat, does it still make sense to capture this ancient capital?
Actually there are.
Yi Lin put herself in the shoes of King Zhennan and thought about the problem. Looking at the situation, Yi Lin felt that King Zhennan had been struggling for so many years, and one of the most important moves must have been made here.
Of course, Yi Lin also had a move, which landed here.
Who can win the game in the end depends on God and fate.
…
"Master, what a strong evil spirit!"
On Yi Lin's shoulder, Bai Chuchu touched his nose and reminded.
Although the strong demonic aura made Bai Chuchu unable to help but feel uncontrollable emotions, as a wild demon, she was enlightened by eminent monks and walked in the secular world for hundreds of years without a single demon friend. Now around Chang'an Palace, there are almost no demons to the naked eye.
The visible evil spirit made Bai Chuchu feel like going home.
Of course, she did not forget her identity and status, and decisively acted as a "temptress" to remind the young master to pay attention to safety.
Yi Lin knocked on the forehead of Bai Hu on her shoulder: "Nonsense, it smells so bad, I can smell it."
She said it lightly, but Yi Lin felt confused in her heart.
He and Xia Xiaoman lived near Chang'an Palace back then. If Concubine Shu was really a demon, the pervading demonic aura would definitely float down the wind to Yingxue Pavilion, and it was impossible for her to be discovered until now.
Or... is there another demon?
Yu Yilin paused in the sky not far from Chang'an Palace and smelled the evil spirit. When he was thinking about the soul-touching question of "whether to enter or not", the evil spirit covering the walls of Chang'an Palace suddenly rose and became a little thicker.
point.
Yi Lin's eyes were stunned for a moment, and then she laughed dumbly: "This is obviously asking you to enter the urn!"
"Master, there may be a scam."
"You are a monster, are you afraid of an egg?"
"Chu Chu is not afraid, but Chu Chu is afraid for the young master."
"Those who are about to die will die early and be reincarnated at the worst possible time. I'm so scared."
"The young master is free and easy."
Bai Chuchu raised his thumbs and paws, but deep in the green tiger eyes, there was a trace of sadness that he tried hard to hide.
Yi Lin laughed and coughed up blood, then turned over and fell into Chang'an Palace.
"Lin Yi of Tianjian Sect, please see the Empress Dowager."
Yi Lin fell into the empty courtyard, defiant and calm, and said loudly.
…
After Yi Lin came directly to the door and shouted at the closed palace door, not long after, the palace door opened to both sides with a "bang", and the peerless concubine Shu, whose appearance was not old, slowly walked out of the darkness.
Concubine Shu was accompanied by two women.
One of them is Ju'er whom Yi Lin has met.
The other one had a cat face, with faint vertical pupils that gave off a frightening cold light.
Yi Lin expressionlessly patted the "cat" butt on her shoulder and said calmly: "Chu Chu, I didn't expect to meet your relatives here."
Tigers belong to the cat family in biology, and there is obviously a cat demon opposite. It is not too much to say that the two are related.
Bai Chuchu: "Meow?"
Miaomiao licked Senbai's paw: "Meow!"
Bai Chuchu: "Meow meow?"
Miao Miao stopped licking her paws, then turned around and complained to Concubine Shu: "My lord, she is a fake cat."
Bai Chuchu: "Bai Chuchu, the tiger demon, comes from Qingniu Mountain."
"Meow! What a good tiger monster, why are you pretending to be a cat!"
Miaomiao's hostility came up. She put her front paws on the ground, raised her butt high, and her two furry tails swung up from under her skirt, suddenly entering the posture of a fighting cat.
"Ju'er has met Mr. Lin."
Ju'er seemed much calmer, but at this moment, she didn't have the submissiveness she had when they last met. Instead, she looked at Yi Lin curiously with a pair of big bright eyes, as if it was the first time they met.
Concubine Shu gently stroked the two erect and swaying tails of the cat demon, and said with a smile: "Miaomiao, don't worry, he has no murderous intention."
Yi Lin narrowed his eyes: "You are looking down on me. At my level, the so-called murderous intention is something that you can show if you like it, and if you don't, you can't show it."
"oh?"
Concubine Shu glanced at Yi Lin lightly, then waved her sleeves sideways, signaling Yi Lin to enter the palace: "Please come in."
…
…
Yi Lin looked at Bai Chuchu on her shoulder, and then stepped into the palace.
"The tea has cooled down, Ju'er, go and change it to hot tea."
Concubine Shu smiled at her personal maid Ju'er.
Yi Lin stepped into the palace and found a pot of cold tea on the table. Yi Lin thought for a moment and recalled the route she took before coming to Qingdu, and then she was speechless: "I thought that the spies on all sides were already outrageous. No.
To think that Feng Qingluan is actually yours."
Concubine Shu had a calm expression, leaning happily on the special rocking chair, rocking gently. After hearing this, Concubine Shu nodded first, but then quickly shook her head and explained: "Feng Qingluan was loyal to the late emperor and admired him. Everything she did,
It's just to fulfill the late emperor's last wish. She doesn't know the true identity of the Ai family."
Yi Lin stared at Concubine Shu's hand gently stroking her belly. The belly was flat and didn't look like she was pregnant. However, Yi Lin really didn't believe it if she said there was nothing inside.
Concubine Shu seemed to have read through Yi Lin's thoughts. She smiled slightly and said proactively before Yi Lin asked: "The late emperor and the Ai family have the name of husband and wife, but they have no real relationship with each other. To be honest, Mr. Lin, the late emperor has no regard for the Ai family."
Yan, rather than being a husband and wife, it is better to say that they are close friends who talk about everything."
In the last conversation, Concubine Shu called Yi Lin "Shangxian". This time, she called Yi Lin "Mr. Lin". This subtle but obvious change was obviously a showdown.
After entering the main hall, Yi Lin smelled the demonic aura around her, and at the same time discerned the aura coming from Concubine Shu. Her brows first wrinkled, then relaxed, then relaxed again. Obviously in these short few minutes, Yi Lin's
The brain was spinning rapidly, and it went through many thinking processes of "establishing hypotheses, deducing, verifying, overturning conclusions, re-establishing hypotheses...".
After a while,
Yi Lin looked at Concubine Shu, who had always maintained an elegant smile on her beautiful face, and sighed softly:
