Emperor Song trembled from his anger, but he couldn't answer back, so he said loudly to his colleagues: "Look, this kid is so arrogant!"
No one spoke for a moment.
After a while, King Disgrace sighed and said, "Xiao Wang thinks that Luo Shangjun should be allowed to go to Nanyan Fuyuan."
King Chakravartin said: "King Disobedience, this matter is no small matter. It's not that we have to embarrass anyone, but the consequences are too serious! Even if it is the mistake of the underworld, it can be compensated in other ways..."
Luo Yingbai became impatient and said, "I don't need any other compensation. If you don't agree, just do it."
The official king said to him: "I know what you are like. Since you must go in, you must also try your best to ensure the stability of Nanyan Fuyuan, right?"
Luo Yingbai looked at him for a moment and nodded slightly.
He had no other words to prove his promise, but the official king seemed to be relieved, nodded, took the lead to walk to the right side of the main hall, and said: "Xiao Wang agreed to take him into Nanyan Fuyuan."
The two sides exchanged words, and the whole hall was filled with the smell of gunpowder. Luo Yingbai's reason was that if no one led the way, it would take him a long time just to find the location of Nanyan Fuyuan, and the Tenth Palace Yama was unwilling to let him in. , On the other hand, he was really wrong, and couldn't afford to offend the person in front of him, so he froze for a moment.
At this time, King Yiguan's statement brought the stalemate to a new direction. The kings hesitated for a while. King Qin Guang took the lead in standing opposite King Yiguan. King Chakravartin quickly followed, but King Yama followed. The disobedient kings stood together.
Luo Yingbai watched coldly, never letting go of the knife in his hand. Seeing that the kings all lined up, it was already a five to four situation. Emperor Song said to the City King who was standing in the middle hesitatingly: "It has been delayed a lot of time. Just stop hesitating!"
He knew that the City King had always had a bad relationship with the people in the world, so his tone was determined at this time. Currently, there are five people who support Luo Yingbai and four who do not support it. If the City King votes against it, then it will return to the status quo. In the stalemate situation, after all, it means that there was no discussion.
But to everyone's surprise, the City King was silent for a while, and then slowly stood next to the Official King under Luo Yingbai's gaze.
Six to four!
The Wheel King was shocked: "You actually..."
Luo Yingbai smiled brightly, put the knife on his shoulder, and said, "Someone will lead the way. Let's go!"
He said and let others lead the way. He had already taken the lead and strode out. When passing by the six people who expressed support, Luo Yingbai stopped and lowered his head and said, "I have recorded your favor."
The official king smiled wryly and said: "Come on, you are right. We have a greater responsibility in the first place, and everyone stops you because they are afraid of causing disaster... Don't talk nonsense, I will guide you."
The five turbid places in the world are filled with thousands of miles of gray fog and are already extremely desolate. However, only when we reach the vicinity of Nan Yanfuyuan can people really have the illusion of "coming to the end".
Looking around, the mouth of the valley is desolate, and even ghosts have not set foot there. In order to suppress the evil energy, the Ten Palaces of Yama have set up a formation at the mouth of the valley. Dozens of stone tablets engraved with the names of the demon-suppressing gods are arranged in a staggered manner. Like barren tombs, the names of Emperor Ziwei, Emperor Guiji, Lord Minglang Yuan, Prince Zhu Yan and others are also impressively listed.
Luo Yingbai stood on the edge of the cliff and looked down. He could only see the devilish energy churning endlessly, like waves like the sea, but he couldn't see clearly the situation below. move.
The strong wind at the mountain pass lifted his forehead hair and the corners of his clothes, as if he could knock Luo Yingbai off at any time, but his feet seemed to be nailed to the ground and remained motionless.
Cang Lingyue's transfiguration appeared beside Luo Yingbai and accompanied him to look down. She seemed a little scared, so she grabbed the corner of Luo Yingbai's clothes and asked cautiously, "Master, what are you thinking?"
Luo Yingbai said: "I'm thinking about how to get in alive and come out alive."
The strong wind seemed to lift up the churning demonic energy a little bit, and the breath of death and corruption rushed towards his face. Cangling Yueyi instinctively hid behind Luo Yingbai, and thought about it after hiding halfway. What happened? He popped up again and stood side by side with him.
He said: "I, I... let me go down and check the reality for the master!"
Luo Yingbai glanced at Can Ling Yueyi and saw that the other person gave him a tearful smile.
His face had been tense, but he couldn't help but laugh at this time, and said: "Then I am nothing. Cangling, you don't have to be afraid or anxious. Although I want to save people, I can't really defeat them." , making this place a mess, aren’t you? I’m just waiting for an opportunity.”
Cang Lingyue was taken aback, but saw Luo Yingbai pointing to a light spot on the ground, the light spot was so small that he didn't notice it at all just now, when he saw his head suddenly raised, he couldn't help being surprised: "This place is actually so bright. There’s sunshine!”
The underworld, where the sun cannot be seen, is just "under the dark nine springs, the long night". It stands to reason that there is no sunlight shining in at all. No wonder even the ghosts dare not set foot here. It’s about to be wiped out in ashes!
Luo Yingbai said: "Nanyan Fuyuan was not originally a territory of the underworld. It was later divided when the Wheel-turning King converted to the Great Dao. You can't see it from this angle, but there should be a thin place of Yin Qi above our heads, which is where the Yin Qi is thin. The seam left by Nanyan Fuyuan when it was brought into the underworld, where a little sunlight can penetrate."
And what he had to wait for was the moment when the light spot shined above the black mist.
Although Cangling Yueyi could not fully understand Luo Yingbai's intention, this did not prevent him from admiring him: "Master knows everything."
Luo Yingbai patted his head: "It's just talk on paper."
He came at the right time, and the light spot quickly reached the mouth of the abyss, and he could shine right into it.
Luo Yingbai patted the scabbard, and Cang Lingyue returned inside. He then tentatively injected a spiritual energy into Nanyan Fuyuan.
The spiritual energy was very weak, so it would not cause the collapse of the surrounding formations, but the black mist was challenged like never before. It was like a huge stone thrown into the lake in an instant, and the water splashed in all directions. Thousands of black mist suddenly turned into thick chains and shot up into the sky. Luo Yingbai attacked.
When encountering an attack, the formation naturally activates protection, and Luo Yingbai quickly retreats into the formation to avoid the attack.
However, what surprised him was that there were four steles emitting light at the same time, interweaving into a bright web of light in front of him, as if they were guarding him.
At this time, the spot of light had followed the direction of the sun and landed directly above Nanyan Fuyuan. Luo Yingbai didn't have time to explore the root cause, so he hurriedly said "Thank you" and jumped down without hesitation.
The series of actions he just took were to find the flaws in Nanyan Fuyuan. Luo Yingbai could feel the existence of his mother's soul, which meant that Nanyan Fuyuan must not be completely demonized, and the vitality below was still alive. This place turned out to be the place where spiritual energy gathered , there must be some place that has not been corroded by the demonic energy.
Among the countless strands of black mist that attacked him just now, there happened to be an empty space that was still calm, Luo Yingbai jumped down along there, and at the same time pointed the bright blade side of the blade at the sun, and he shouted: "Pu Please light, bless me with magical powers, and be as hasty as the law!"
The small spot of light was refracted on the knife surface into thousands of light blocks, and then rapidly expanded, and suddenly it was bright and bright, covering the whole valley, temporarily repelling the black mist, Luo Yingbai had successfully broken through the first layer The magic energy fell down.
He had not yet mastered the skill of flying. After breaking through the layer of black mist at the entrance to Nanyan Fuyuan, he quickly swung his knife and nailed it into the stone wall next to him, hanging his body.
Luo Yingbai's body was suspended in the air, he glanced at the depth below, and murmured in a low voice: "Fortunately, I don't have a fear of heights."
The knife in his hand kept shaking, it seems that Cang Lingyueyi may have some troubles in this regard.
Luo Yingbai saw the situation around him clearly, drew his sword decisively, and his body fell again. He pressed his hand on the mountain wall to use force, and occasionally pulled the vines that had not yet been demonized to attack, and soon fell to the bottom of the cliff safely.
After Luo Yingbai landed safely, he seemed to have no intention of looking for his mother for the time being. He looked around, and then walked straight down the slope to the highest point.
Can Ling Yueyi shook it in his hand, as if asking Luo Yingbai where he wanted to go. Luo Yingbai said: "I'm going to the source of demonization. Are you afraid?"
Cangling Yueyi's sword fell straight out of the scabbard.
Luo Yingbai pursed her lips and smiled, but that smile was fleeting. He was thinking about how long he had been here, and whether Xia Xianning might be waiting outside in a hurry.
But now that the matter has come to this, Luo Yingbai can't take care of both ends. He can only pray that Xia Xianning has some patience and doesn't follow her in.
——The source of demonization he was going to was really not a simple place.
Now that he has gone deep into Nanyan Fuyuan, Luo Yingbai feels the seriousness of demonization more deeply. Although he can maintain his inner emptiness without interference with his skills, he cannot use his magic power to find people at will. .
So Luo Yingbai plans to simply go to the source of the entire abyss's demonic transformation. There, the source of demonization can inspire the greatest desire in his heart when he comes here, and in order to assimilate and devour Luo Yingbai, he will even consume all the demonic transformations in the abyss. People and things that can hinder his footsteps appear in front of him.
In this way, if he didn't go to Jiang Yujia, Jiang Yujia would be sent instead.
This is a typical approach of catching tiger cubs without entering the tiger's den. Although it is dangerous, there is no other choice. Following Luo Yingbai's footsteps, the terrain has been rising. I don't know when, the surrounding scenery has gradually changed. .
Cang Ling Yueyi was carried behind Luo Yingbai. He also did not dare to use his spiritual power, so he did not transform. He just observed the surrounding situation nervously, ready to defend Luo Yingbai from danger at any time.
But soon he discovered that the trees, rivers, and black air on both sides were gradually disappearing like melted marshmallows. Modern signs such as roads and high-rise buildings appeared in the originally barren forbidden land of the underworld, like a This bustling but silent silent film is very eerie.
Can Ling Yueyi was shocked, and quickly looked at Luo Yingbai, wanting to remind him, but from his angle, he could only see half of the owner's soft profile profile. Luo Yingbai's face had no expression, and his face was originally cold. Even more indifferent.
His lips pursed slightly, but his pace was still leisurely. With years of understanding, Cangling Yueyi immediately realized that Luo Yingbai should have noticed this abnormality long ago, and everything was as he expected.
Also, with this person's character, he never fights unprepared battles.
Luo Yingbai walked straight ahead, passing fashion stores, restaurants, and shopping malls on both sides, but even though the surroundings were so bustling, there was still not a single sound from anyone. In the whole world, the only sound he could hear was his own walking.
"Tap, tap, tap..."
The road has no end, and Caoling Yueyi even has a feeling that they will keep going like this until they die.
He had such thoughts in his heart, but then he saw a building in front of him. The body of the building was made of glass, and the roof was invisible, as if it could go straight to the sky. From the outside, you could see the steps inside. Almost vertically upward, ad infinitum.
As soon as Luo Yingbai's footsteps stopped, Cang Lingyue knew that he was the laziest. He thought that Luo Yingbai must have been frightened by the steps and wanted to take a rest, but there was only a momentary pause, so he pushed open the glass door and walked away went in.
After entering, Cangling Yueyi understood Luo Yingbai's hesitation just now.
There was a woman in blue clothes standing inside the door. There were faint traces of time on her brows and eyes. It seemed that she should not be too young, but her beautiful appearance and graceful temperament made it easy to ignore her. age.
——That face is very similar to Luo Yingbai.
The moment he saw her, Luo Yingbai felt as if his throat was stuck by an invisible hand, he could hear his violent heartbeat and heavy breathing, he thought he could no longer speak, but But the voice clearly seemed to come from an extremely distant place: "Mom."
He held his heart, as if he was afraid that it would suddenly break through his chest and pop out: "I...I'm coming."
Jiang Yujia didn't speak. Luo Yingbai knew that it was because her soul had been in this place for a long time, and she didn't communicate with others for a long time. , mother and son rarely communicate.
Luo Yingbai picked up Jiang Yujia on his back, and Cang Lingyue shrunk it back to the length of his fingers, and stuffed it into his pocket. He took a breath to stabilize his mood, and walked up the first staircase.
As we walked up, phantoms began to appear on the stairs. Some of these images were blurred, some were clear, scenes of light and shadow interlaced, and countless familiar figures flew up and down the stairs. Those were all Luo Ying. Bai's acquaintance in the real world only had a passing fate with him here.
Glittering, floating life is like a dream. In fact, life is like this. Gathering and separation or meeting by chance should be something that can be expected when we meet. If you indulge in the joy of "meeting" and forget that there is parting in life, then it is not because of "" "I don't want to let go" and fall into the devil's trap is because I feel pain because I "have to let go".
Luo Ying didn't squint her eyes and walked forward with Jiang Yujia on her back. Although the building looked high, it was not endless. As long as you climbed to the top, the other end would lead directly to the main hall of the Palace of Hell.
But what is difficult is not only the phantoms of the past that pop up in front of me from time to time, but also the increasingly difficult road under my feet.
It was certainly a good thing that Jiang Yujia was brought to Luo Yingbai, but he did not forget that this was actually a trap set by Mo Yuan to make him stay. His choice to take Jiang Yujia away was tantamount to You can't give up your obsession, in this way, the influence of demon energy on Luo Yingbai will increase accordingly.
As he walked up the stairs step by step, Luo Yingbai could already clearly feel the suction on the ground. It was as if something was sticking to the soles of his shoes on the clean marble tiles, and his shoulders seemed as heavy as a hill.
Luo Yingbai couldn't use his magic power, so every time he raised his legs, he had difficulty walking. He felt that he had walked for a long time, and the stairs above still couldn't see the end.
Luo Yingbai tripped and fell to the ground. His face hit the edge of the stairs. It hurt a little, but besides the pain, it was more of a relief.
Climbing stairs is really tiring. Lying down on the ground comfortably like this doesn’t require any effort, let alone thinking about so many messy things...
Luo Yingbai half-closed his eyes. He really wanted to take a rest, but at this moment, a pair of hands crossed his shoulders and rested on both sides of his body, seeming to want to reduce the weight on his back. Pull both bodies forward as far as possible.
Her eyes didn't close completely, but suddenly widened again. Luo Yingbai said hoarsely: "...Mom?"
The person behind him didn't make a sound, but his hand was still in front of him. Luo Yingbai wanted to turn over to see clearly, but he really didn't have the strength, so he put his hand on that hand and shouted: "Mom." Is it you? Are you back? Mom! Mom! Mom!"
After a while, the hand wiped his face, and there was a familiar fragrance on the bottom of his wrist. Only then did Luo Yingbai realize that the tears had flowed down without him realizing it.
A voice from behind whispered, "Xiao Bao, don't cry."
"Xiaobao" - no one has called Luo Yingbai by his nickname for a long time. When he was born, his name was never decided, so he was given a nickname first, which was Xiaobao.
Later, when the child grew older, Luo Zhao changed his name to him, but in Luo Yingbai's memory, although Jiang Yujia was cold to him, she was the only person who continued to call him that way until he was in his twenties.
Later... Later, there was an eternal separation between heaven and man, with one dead and one injured.
Luo Yingbai felt a fire in his heart, scorching his internal organs, his throat choked for a moment, but he didn't answer the call, he didn't know where the strength came from, he pressed his hands on the edge of the stairs, with a sudden force, his body Moved up one level.
Jiang Yujia still didn't have much strength, so she said, "Put me down. It's difficult to walk out if you carry me on your back."
Luo Yingbai said bitterly: "What do you care if I go out or not? Don't you dislike me? Didn't you want to talk to me since you were a child?"
"Xiaobao..."
Luo Yingbai broke out suddenly: "Since you don't like me, why did you give birth to me? Did you give birth to me just to leave me alone? After your accident, I have been thinking every day, why did you give birth to me?" Willing to give up your life to save me, have you ever really loved me, are you my real mother!"
Luo Yingbai thought that he was open-minded enough, and he believed that as a man, he should not dwell on the past and dwell on the past. He had always told himself to smile at life, and he had always done so.
Right now, it is not so much complaints and grievances as it is the fear and worry that we can only meet after going through hardships. If some things are not hidden in the heart, it can be regarded as nothing happened, even if he has lived a new life.
As Luo Yingbai spoke, he climbed up the stairs as if to vent his anger. He didn't realize that his voice was hoarse: "Why do you treat me like this? Why did I make you unhappy? You gave birth to me and you don't like me. You don't You cared about me and gave up your life to save me, you...why! "
Jiang Yujia didn't speak for a long time, if not for being able to feel her on his shoulder, Luo Yingbai almost thought it was a ridiculous dream.
The ladder in front of him was still endless, he vented his emotions, and his emotions became much more stable, but he also felt tired belatedly because of this.
So Luo Yingbai finally shut up - he couldn't shout anymore.
No matter how hysterical he looked on the surface, he couldn't really throw himself and his biological mother here after all. Then his father and Xian Ning would have to become widowers together... Xian Ning should be considered a widow, it was so pitiful!
Luo Yingbai gritted his teeth, resisting the overwhelming desire to fall to the ground, and rubbed his body forward little by little. His knees and palms were worn out, and every time he rubbed it, he felt excruciating pain. Jiang Yujia tried to get off Luo Yingbai, but was blocked by Luo Yingbai.
After coming down a few times, Jiang Yujia also understood that Luo Yingbai could not put her down and walk by herself, struggling would only add to the burden on her son, so she no longer tried to get off his back. Like Luo Yingbai, she tried her best to grab the edge of the stairs with her hands and moved forward together.
Luo Yingbai said: "I will do it myself."
It was a long story, and I didn't know where to explain it for a while, Jiang Yujia said: "Xiaobao...I'm sorry. Mom loves you."
The only thing she told Luo Yingbai before she passed away in her last life was that mother loves you.
Luo Yingbai's face was wet, and he didn't know if it was sweat or something else. He didn't say anything, gritted his teeth and tried to crawl forward. There was already a long trail of blood on the stairs behind him.
The suction under him seemed to be getting stronger and stronger, and various past images were still swaying in the building. To Luo Yingbai's heart, those fleeting images became clearer and clearer than before.
This shows that he is becoming more and more affected by the demonic energy. If he is completely trapped in it, he will be in trouble!
But what surprised Luo Yingbai was that in these images, apart from the memories he had, there were actually many figures of ancient people. The faces of those people could not be seen clearly, but it was him with long robes and wide sleeves and a graceful demeanor. Never seen it before.
Someone vaguely saluted him and shouted: "Yuanjun, Yuanjun..."
