Before the Empress Goes Dark, Adopt Her as a Villain

Chapter 261: Hallucinations

After being called out by Zhang Wanyang, Ning Wuxie and Zhao Heng could no longer chat. They could only smile and wave their hands and leave to return to the crowd.

Zhang Wanyang was about to ask what the two had said when he heard Ning Wuxie say with a smile: "I didn't expect that the famous Xuanqin Iron Tree had such a secret. I really didn't expect it."

Zhao Heng also smiled and nodded.

Seeing this, Zhang Wanyang closed his mouth and stopped asking.

Everyone looked up at the top of the iron tree at this time. As dusk fell, the large green leaves at the top of the iron tree slowly turned black, and the outline of each leaf could not be distinguished.

But this darkness only lasted for a few seconds. Suddenly, a ray of fire lit up in the crown of the top of the iron tree, like a red lightning or a small snake, crawling over the branches and leaves in an instant, illuminating a small area and then quickly disappearing.

Ning Wuxie and Xuan'er looked at this strange scene in surprise.

Could this be the "flower" of the iron tree?

Zhang Wanyang began to explain: "Every year at this time, the iron tree will emit this kind of fire after dark, passing through the treetops, as if it grows from the trunk and dissipates to the top of the leaves."

"It's like the sparks from the iron tree."

Ning Wuxie nodded and asked Zhao Heng: "Then what is the reason for this spark?"

"This, no one knows at present, we can only guess that the broken world in the magic weapon is dissipating energy outward, and it is transmitted by the ancient tree." Zhao Heng said.

The broken small world...

The emperor's Wuqi can actually contain a world, and this small world is still releasing energy ten thousand years after the emperor's death.

Not to mention anything else, just saying that this plant can grow from a small world to the main world by absorbing the world's energy is unimaginable enough.

If I die, the small world of Tianming City will probably be like this, still existing, but constantly collapsing, sliding towards the abyss and dissipating, and finally returning to the main world.

But the world inside the emperor's magic weapon has collapsed for 10,000 years and has not completely dissipated... Really... Ning Wuxie is more and more frightened the more he thinks about it.

People in the Dharma Ending Age really can't imagine the scenes of the mythological age.

After watching, Ning Wuxie and Xuan'er should also say goodbye. This dinner party can't be said to be fruitless, at least they have eaten a lot.

However, I met Zhao Heng, persuaded him, and learned the secrets of the iron tree, which can be regarded as a broadening of my horizons.

Everyone walked back along the way they came, stopped in front of the hall where the dinner was held, and said goodbye to each other.

"Little friend Ning, where are you going next? Go back to Junzi Mountain?" Zhao Xun asked, touching his big belly.

"Not necessarily, I just came out not long ago." Ning Wuxie said, "I plan to continue to investigate the clues of Huangquanke and eliminate some evil ways."

"Haha, good, responsible." King Fu said with a smile.

"Although Li Luobing has been captured, the Yellow Spring Guest has not been eradicated. I hope that Young Friend Ning will pay more attention to it," Zhao Guangxian said. "If you find anything, please contact Lord Zhang. You are brothers and sisters, so it will be more convenient to cooperate."

"Haha, that's natural." Ning Wuxie smiled awkwardly and glanced at Zhang Wanyang.

He wanted to say that the case could be closed now, and the leader of the Yellow Spring Guest was this Zhang Wanyang, but he couldn't.

There was no real evidence on hand, and he didn't know whether these three princes were enemies or friends. Once it was revealed, it was uncertain whether he and Xuan'er could leave Xuanqin.

After some politeness, Zhang Wanyang, Ning Wuxie and Xuan'er said goodbye to Emperor Zhao Heng and the princes and left the palace.

"Junior Brother Ning, tonight..." Standing in front of the sedan chair, Zhang Wanyang made a gesture of invitation.

"We'll leave tonight." Ning Wuxie interrupted.

Zhang Wanyang was stunned, "So anxious?" He looked at Ning Wuxie and sneered, "What are you afraid of? I can't beat you."

"I know," Ning Wuxie snorted, "There's nothing good to stay here, why not go out for a walk."

"Okay, my junior brother." Zhang Wanyang did not try to keep him, and his tone was not polite at all.

"I hope you don't think about it and say something to Junzishan. First of all, nothing will change. The ancestor behind me will replace a guy who is even more inhuman than me to control the government, and Huangquanke will still exist. Secondly, the ancestor will hunt you down unless you never leave Junzishan."

Before getting on the sedan chair, Zhang Wanyang left these words and then walked away.

"Just a eunuch, what's so arrogant!" Xuan'er glanced at the sedan chair he was sitting in and took Ning Wuxie's arm.

"Don't be angry, brother."

Ning Wuxie watched Zhang Wanyang leave silently, and was suddenly hugged by Xuan'er, and then he retracted his gaze.

"I'm not angry. He's right." Ning Wuxie shook his head. "With our current strength, it's really hard to compete with Tianxu behind him."

"Even if we report Zhang Wanyang to Junzishan now, it's just a waste of this fuse."

"When we become stronger and have more clues and the truth, we can combine Li Luobing and Zhang Wanyang to achieve the greatest detonation effect."

Ning Wuxie thought, instead of letting Zhang Wanyang be replaced and replaced by a new character to lead Huangquanke, it would be better to let Zhang Wanyang continue like this. He has Li Luobing and the Wei brothers and sisters in his hands and can testify against him at any time.

But if he changes someone, it's equivalent to breaking all the clues.

"Brother is right." Xuan'er said softly.

"Where are we going now...?"

"..."

"I don't know either."

...

At the same time, in the small world.

It was almost time for the people of Tianming City to go to bed. Every household began to turn off the lights. The dim lights in the windows disappeared and the city gradually became dark.

Li Luobing, supported by her maid, staggered out of the government hall and looked at this city she had never seen before. The architectural style of the houses was something she had never seen before, and the armor design of the guards in the square at the entrance of the hall also made her curious.

What was even more peculiar was that she found that the skin color of many people here was a combination of light gray/gray-green, not the dark or yellow outside, but a gray color based on paleness.

This was definitely not Xuanqin, nor was it any corner of the Lingwu Continent, and these people were not any race that Li Luobing had ever heard of.

Could this really be the world created by Ning Wuxie?

How did he do it...

Li Luobing's eyes flashed with shock, and he couldn't move his eyes away.

"How is it, Miss Li." A female voice came from behind, and Li Luobing and the maid turned around and saw that it was Chongjue who was pacing over. The maid saluted, and Li Luobing stood still.

"You are..."

"I am the governor appointed by the king to manage this city. My name is Chongjue."

"Oh..." Li Luobing's heart was in turmoil, "Ning Wuxie is your king?" She asked knowingly.

"Yes," Chongjue walked to her side and looked at the large urban buildings in front of him, "It was the king who promised us this world so that we can have a place to live."

"Where are you from?" Li Luobing asked.

Chongjue glanced at her and kept silent.

"You have to ask the king. I don't know whether to tell you this question."

Li Luobing nodded silently.

"In short, the king is the cornerstone of the city, our faith, the god and master of this city or country."

"Yes..." Li Luobing could only respond, not knowing what to say.

Although her Great Chu Dynasty has a population of tens of millions, as a royal princess, it is not certain that there will be ten people who worship her father as a god.

But Ning Wuxie did it... But it's also normal. He solved the problem of eating and sleeping for these people, and even created a world for them. This is not considered a god, but the definition of gods must change.

Li Luobing realized at the first time what the fanatical belief of such a large group of people would bring - the power of faith!

In today's world, only the leader of the Human Clan, the Human Emperor, is called the Emperor of the Human Race because he shoulders the mission of protecting the world and enjoys a little blessing of the power of faith.

But Ning Wuxie can actually have his own believers, and combined with what Ning Wuxie has done for them, the worship of these believers must be extremely sincere and strong, and of extremely high quality.

Li Luobing thought further, this small world is isolated from the world, no one can invade, and there is only such a group of people. In time, they will multiply and the population will reach 100,000 or 1 million... What will happen? !

Ning Wuxie at that time...

She couldn't help swallowing, and her dry lips trembled slightly.

Chongjue suddenly said, "Miss Li, what kind of building do you think is better to build in this place?"

"Building?"

"Yes, a building that is extremely magnificent, showing the absolute authority of the king, and allowing all the people to remember him."

"To show authority..." Li Luobing hurriedly started to think about it, "How about a statue?"

"Statues are not good. Statues should be distributed in various places in the city. They are not suitable as landmark buildings."

"... That pavilion?"

"Pavilion? Not high enough," Chongjue thought with his arms crossed, imagining what it would look like if a pavilion stood here.

"Besides, the king doesn't come back often, and I don't know what the attic is used for. It's a bit of a waste."

"Then it's just a tower." Li Luobing said.

"Tower?"

"Yes, there are many types of towers, spire towers, round towers, multi-story towers..." Li Luobing popularized Chongjue, who had never seen many buildings outside, "Towers also have a strong religious attribute, mainly for the purpose of maintaining worship."

Chongjue listened, his eyes lit up, and nodded unconsciously.

"Yes, it is to maintain the worship."

"When the time comes, we can light a pile of fire on the top of the tower and light it every night. On the one hand, it can provide lighting, and on the other hand, this eye-catching building can make people always aware of the existence of Wang Jun." Li Luobing said.

"That's right... a fire in the dark night, isn't Wang Jun equivalent to a fire in the dark night for us?"

Chongjue opened his eyes wide and stared at the front in a daze, as if he had seen a tall tower standing here, with a blazing fire on the top of the tower, so that everyone can see it at a glance.

The fire in front of him suddenly moved, and a track was drawn on the dark sky.

"Huh?"

Chongjue was stunned. Was he hallucinating? How did the imagined tower become reality?

She looked closely and found that there was no tall tower on the ground, but the fire in the sky was indeed moving, and it seemed to be approaching here.

Chongjue turned her head and glanced at Li Luobing, and she also saw the fire.

"What is that?" Chongjue asked.

"I don't know." Li Luobing shook his head, thinking why are you asking me.

The fire was getting closer and closer, and getting bigger and bigger, like a red meteor. In a flash, it was above Tianming City, illuminating the buildings below.

Chongjue and Li Luobing realized that the fire seemed to be aimed directly at them...

"Be careful!" Chongjue screamed, pulling Li Luobing and the maid down to squat at the same time. They saw the fire light as big as a person flying over the heads of the three people, and then crashed into the square of the Government Affairs Hall behind them with a "bang".

The stone bricks on the square cracked instantly, and a big pit sank in the middle. The ground shook, and several guards were knocked down, and dust and smoke filled the air.

Only then did they hear that the thing that hit them seemed to be screaming.

"Ahhhh, it hurts... It hurts! My body, uh uhhhh!!!"
