It started to rain lightly tonight in the Imperial City. It was the spring season, but cold winds blew in from the open windows. The candles on the Mo Pavilion table were like willows in the wind, swaying for a few seconds and then extinguished silently.

After the room suddenly fell into darkness, the emperor, who was leaning on the recliner with his eyes closed and taking a nap, leisurely opened his eyes. His light golden sun-like pupils swept over everything familiar in front of him, and he groped for the fire seal placed aside.

.

Before he could light the candle again, the white light on the jade finger floated out. Xiao Yibai lightly lit the candle with his fingertips, but the flame ignited by his spiritual power was a cold blue, which not only failed to restore the warmth to Mo Pavilion.

, on the contrary, it reveals even more the color of death.

Ming Xi looked at him, and then at the blue flames. Such a cold color made his mood feel particularly heavy. He suddenly sighed, leaned forward, and pinched out the spiritual fire with his fingers.

Then he pointed to the fire breaker next to him and motioned for him to light it.

Xiao Yibai had no choice but to help him light the fire and asked naggingly: "Just go to put out the fire, aren't you afraid of burning it?"

"How can such a cold fire burn my hands? You should be concerned about whether I will get frostbite." Mingxi rubbed his fingers. His voice sounded sick, as if he needed to work hard to pronounce every word.

He had to pause for a moment after finishing each sentence. He pointed to the pile of papers on the table, rummaged through a few books and handed them to him, then slowly said: "The wind demon is here to report to me.

The deployment status of the snowfield is all here, you can see it yourself, and then destroy it after reading it."

"Tell me, there are too many and I'm too lazy to read." Xiao Yibai smiled and did not pick up the pile of papers. Mingxi snorted coldly. With his temper, he raised his hand and grabbed a handful and smashed them all.

On the face of this soul, he cursed angrily: "Watch it whether you like it or not. If you don't want to watch it, get out and call Gongsun Yan over here."

"Don't look at what time it is now. He should have gone to bed long ago." Xiao Yibai's expression was calm. He picked up the papers that had passed through his soul, sorted them and put them back, and said with a smile: "Don't look at me.

I know the situation, I just want to hear more from you."

Ming Xi did not look at him, but stared at the candlestick on the table without saying a word for a long time. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was feeling unwell recently. He was unwilling to say another word if he could use gestures instead. Those ministers with sharp eyes

They inquired about his physical condition from the Danzhen Palace, and Qiao Yu also revealed some false information according to his instructions. Sure enough, recently, famous doctors and doctors from all walks of life, and even guys who claimed to be immortals, flattered him and gave him medical supplies.

Tonic pills, those that moisten the lungs, relieve coughs, and refresh the mind, it's like the eight immortals crossing the sea, each showing their magical powers.

These ministers who were busy trying to please him were not aware of the worries hidden deep in the emperor's heart, and they knew nothing about the future of this isolated island that fell from the sky and into the sea under their feet.

Just when he was so upset that he didn't want to go to court every day, this guy could still happily make such a request in front of him, but he actually tilted his head and satisfied the other party's request with just a short pause.

He whispered: "The remnant formation of the Ten Palaces of Hell left by King Chen under Xingluo Lake has been successfully moved to the snowy field. Frankly speaking, it took me a lot of effort, because some things cannot be made public after all. Fortunately, Cen Ge and Cen Qing are there

We succeeded with the help of many foreigners, and it was also thanks to your brother that he was able to delay the Night King for so long, but we still couldn't get close to the snow monument, so we had to choose the location behind the White Sect's Thousand Machines Palace."

Xiao Yibai blurted out in confusion: "Isn't the White Tiger Legion stationed in Qianji Palace?"

"It's okay. I ordered them to retreat a few days ago and handed over the management of the Bai Sect to Grand Siming Cenge. You happened to be away at that time, so I didn't tell you."

"How did you turn it around?" Xiao Yibai was a little surprised. Obviously, he had not learned what Mingxi was talking about from the soul-splitting method. Then he couldn't wait to grab the previous stack of paper and read it carefully. Mingxi laughed at

He stood up and snorted coldly, "I just asked you to see what you said you didn't want to see."

"That thing is not that easy to transfer, right?" Xiao Yibai looked at the calm Ming Xi in surprise. He always felt that there was invisible blood spreading behind such strategizing. He paused, feeling his mouth was a little dry, and raised his finger.

He pointed to the tea on the other table and motioned for Xiao Yibai to bring it over. He took a breath before continuing: "It was the people from the Shengyue Clan who helped to move it. Rumor has it that they were a race that once served the Moon God, so they are not interested in leaving the heavenly realm."

The things below have unique advantages, they... they sacrificed all the clan members over the age of twenty, and used the power of their souls to silently transfer the remnant formation of the Ten Palaces of Hell from the Imperial City to the Jia Luo Bai Sect."

Xiao Yibai trembled slightly, and his eyes sunk deeply. At the age of twenty, the life of the Shengyue Clan lasts for two hundred years. To them, the age of twenty is just the same as a four or five-year-old human child!

Feeling an unbearable soreness in his throat, Xiao Yibai took a deep breath and continued to ask in a low voice for a long time: "Is that all?"

Ming Xi pressed his fingers hard on the table. At that moment, he hesitated a little, his eyes flickered, but he quickly calmly put away his emotions and continued: "There are also the former Six Spirits, Six Saints and Twelve Immortals.

The eight existing branches of the Forty-Eight Ancestors sacrificed about half of the population of the clan, as well as a million people who were seriously injured in the fragmentation and could not be treated, and could only hang on to breathe. In addition, they were imprisoned in the prisons of the four realms.

The total number of prisoners should be over three million..."

"You!" Xiao Yibai looked at his friend in disbelief, unable to imagine that there was such a painful price behind his plain tone, "I only left for a few days, and you killed so many people?"

Such questioning only earned the emperor a disdainful smile: "Those foreigners have always been regarded as weak and incompetent by us, but in the face of the life and death of the country, they are braver than our well-trained warriors.

, I was hesitant at first, not that I should sacrifice them to gamble on an unknown future, but that the plan of killing gods should not be known to so many people! But when Cen Ge took the risk to tell these things to the remaining eight alien races

After that, they believed it without hesitation, why? I still can’t figure it out, what made them believe in me and a royal emperor who has exploited and oppressed them for thousands of years?”

Ming Xi rubbed his eyes and said too many words at once. His tone was already a bit difficult to express, but affected by the complex and turbulent emotions in his heart, his eyes became sharper, forcing him to continue speaking word by word: "But

For those seriously injured people and prisoners, I didn’t explain much. Wasn’t there a drug called Wenrouxiang that was secretly circulating not long ago? I asked Chi Qing to take some privately, and after they swallowed it, they fell into hallucinations and then killed them.

, it can be regarded as a more pleasant death."

Xiao Yibai was speechless for a moment. He knew from the beginning that not sacrificing was only a child's fantasy, but it was so tragic that it still made him unable to calm down for a long time.

Such a huge price still cannot guarantee that this isolated island that has fallen from the sky into the sea can usher in a new tomorrow.

"I really want to kill all those sensual guys in the Imperial City!" Ming Xi bowed slightly, covered his mouth and coughed for a while, his face full of disgust, "Waiting for everything to end, Fei Yuan's political power will be over.

, I want to check them one by one from top to bottom! I will never let them sit back and enjoy their gains."

Probably because he was too angry, the corners of his lips were bleeding as he spoke, and the bright red blood hung on the corners of his pale lips. His smile was like a knife carving: "Of course, if you fail, then you can only die with them reluctantly."

, it’s such a pity that these people should die together.”

Xiao Yibai came back to his senses immediately and handed the water to him: "It won't fail if you talk nonsense. Don't worry, leave the rest to me. I'm already at the source of the glacier and will set off tomorrow.

Feng Ji is also here in Xueyuan, I will go find Cen Ge first to make peace."

Hearing this name that Fei Yuan had not mentioned for a long time, a smile appeared on Ming Xi's lips. He quietly put down whatever he had been worrying about, waved his hand and said, "There is one more thing, do you still remember? When your brother was killed

After the ANBU sneak attack, how many days did he live in the underground cracks of the Holy Blind Clan to hide from others? He got something from there, which was a horn of your ancestor, the ancient species, and he later took that thing away.

, the Holy Blind Clan told Cen Ge about this, and then I ordered people to go to your house to look for it. Sure enough, it had been kept in his room. He came back several times and left in a hurry, and he didn't even bother to come back.

Important fetish..."

"What are you looking for that thing for?" Xiao Yibai was confused. Mingxi frowned and glanced at it with disdain, but still couldn't help but cursed, "I don't know what to ask, so when you come here, I will let you check the situation by yourself.

Still talking back to me!"

"Okay, okay, it's so thick that I won't see it until tomorrow morning, so just tell me directly." Xiao Yi Baibai's scalp was numb and he gripped the paper in his hand. Mingxi turned his head with a groan and continued, "Fei Yuan has been busy recently.

Monsters are rampant in the territory. I am worried that it is affected by the power of the Night King to command all beasts. That ancient horn has a very strong suppressive power on monsters. At least it can ensure that they will not easily invade the Thousand Machine Palace. The Thousand Machine Palace is now ten

The core of the Palace of Hell's remnant formation must not be affected by monsters. If Feng Ji is traveling with you, please tell her about this. I hope that the guardians of the major forbidden areas can also help."

Xiao Yibai nodded, still worried and said: "If it is to command the power of all beasts, I am afraid that the forbidden land guards will not be able to suppress the out-of-control monsters, but it is always good if I can help stop them."

Ming Xi raised his head, feeling slightly absent-minded, followed by a long silence.

There was no expression on Xiao Yibai's face. Even though he had been a friend for many years, he could not see the emperor's true thoughts at this moment, until Mingxi turned his jade ring finger and said tiredly: "Let me rest for a while."

Before he could answer, Ming Xi cut off the connection with the Soul Dividing Technique.

At the same time as the soul dissipated, Xiao Yibai's body had followed Feng Ji to the source of the glacier. Before he jumped into the water, he gazed distractedly in the direction of the imperial capital for a long time - the moment before the soul-splitting technique disappeared,
Chapter completed!
