Chapter 73: Getting Involved(1/2)
"Emperor, why don't we go get you a chair?" The soldiers guarding the gate of the God Realm stood at their posts with some uneasiness and said to me.
Holding a plate of crispy and sweet fairy fruits, I sat on the steps at the entrance to the God Realm, looking leisurely at the clouds and mist ahead, waiting for someone to come up from the lower realm.
"No, I'll just sit here. I'm just waiting for someone. You guys are busy with your work." I shook the fruit in my hand and replied with a smile to the soldiers guarding the gate of the God Realm.
Tomorrow is the Shaofu Ceremony. Whether we can successfully find the current loopholes in the God Realm depends on whether our division of labor and cooperation today go smoothly...
Yesterday, after coming out of the Flower Temple, I left Xiaotang Ning in the care of Zhiduo Queyun and the others. I followed the questions in my heart and went to the foot of the mountain realm where Xiao Yi said at the Chen Banquet that the demons were taken away by the black energy.
.
At the same time, I kept reading the events of the past two days in my mind.
…
"See the emperor, the emperor. The emperor, the emperor, I chased the demon all the way to the foot of the mountain boundary. Just when I was about to capture the demon, a large black demonic energy suddenly emerged from the ground.
The demonic man was swept away and disappeared in an instant, and I have ordered the other warriors and soldiers to continue searching everywhere in the mountain realm and Xunyu Palace... I am so incompetent that I beg the Emperor and Heavenly Lord to punish me!"
…
"What's wrong, Tang Ning?"
"Golden millet."
…
"I'm sure not, I've been...ah, when we were changing shifts yesterday, it seemed that Mr. Takami had been here."
"Yingwei?"
"Yes. And then there's the God of War."
Whether it was the sudden return of Xiao Yi from the banquet, or the information that happened to point to Xiao Yi in the Heavenly Prison, they all made me more than a little suspicious of Xiao Yi. I always had to trust my intuition.
…
When I was putting Xiao Tangning to sleep before going to the Flower Temple the night before, I quietly checked with Xiao Tangning.
"Xiao Tangning, can the Emperor and Mother God ask you a question?"
"Um."
"It's the golden millet fragrance you smelled at the feast, are you sure?"
"I'm sure, Tang Ning is familiar with all the flavors of flowers. You can't be wrong."
"Then the Emperor, Mother and Goddess ask you again, is that golden millet fragrance always present at the Chen Banquet? Or is it just for a moment?"
"Well... there are other flowers that have always been present at the Chen Banquet, but the golden millet scent only existed for a short while, it seems that it was only available after the return of the Godly Lord Xiaoyi."
"Oh, are there any at Xiaoyi Shenjun's place?"
"Um."
"That may have happened when the God of Xiaoyi went to hunt down the demons." I looked at Xiao Tang Ning and said intentionally.
Xiao Tangning shook his head firmly: "It shouldn't be the case, because there is no golden millet at the foot of the mountain boundary."
"Oh, that's it. Xiao Tangning knows so much. Xiao Tangning is awesome!"
…
Finally, I walked around twice at the foot of the mountain boundary, and I really didn't find a single golden millet.
But Xiaotang Ning was sure that he smelled the smell of golden millet coming from Xiaoyi.
This reminds me of what happened at school and Bu Lihe.
Also, the speed at which Xiaoyi returned to Chenyan after hunting down the demons really made me feel a bit fast...
Moreover, the eyes of Xiao Yi I saw in Tianlao were indeed different from the eyes of Xiao Yi I saw outside Si Ai Temple.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m paranoid or something else, but I can’t help but think about the word “rubbing” since the beginning of the Chenyan Banquet.
If everything is really as I thought, then Xiaoyi who chased the demons from Bixiao Palace that day must no longer be in the God Realm.
Seeing that the mountain realm still belongs to the divine realm, if the black energy is generated by the power of chaos, then it can indeed be derived from all things and come and go freely, and ordinary gods and gods cannot retain it.
Therefore, it should not be difficult to send one more person in or one more person out.
After all, I have witnessed with my own eyes that black energy emerging from the ground and taking everyone including the Witch Master away easily in front of me.
It's just...my deceitful father has closed the door to the ancient world of gods again. If I can't enter, I won't be able to learn more about the power of chaos from my father, so I can only rely on myself.
.
This path to the divine world cannot be walked easily.
…
"Emperor?"
"Huh?" When I heard the voice of the person I wanted to wait for, I immediately pulled out the thoughts in my head and straightened up my already lazy body.
Looking at Xiao Yi who had just returned from the lower realm and was standing in front of me, I immediately put a smile on my face: "Xiao God of War!"
Last night, when I was returning from the mountain boundary, I ran into Bai Ze when I went to walk outside Xumo Palace because my mind was bored.
"How did you know I was here?" I looked at Bai Ze who suddenly appeared in front of me with a hint of surprise.
Bai Ze came closer, smiled softly, and tapped my forehead, "You gave me the spiritual contract, why don't you let me use it if you haven't used it yet?"
"Oh oh oh, yes, yes. Haha." I touched my forehead and chuckled.
Originally, the spirit contract was intended to make it easier for me to know where Bai Ze was at any time, but now it is really convenient for Bai Ze to find me.
"How's it going? Have you met Mr. Takami?" I asked Bai Ze.
Yesterday morning, after I asked Bai Ze to follow Mr. Takami, I didn't see Bai Ze for the whole day. I guess he came here now because he had news.
Sure enough, Bai Ze nodded, and then looked at me seriously and got straight to the point: "I think it's unlikely that Mr. Takami killed the divine servant. First, Mr. Takami has taken me with him since I was a child, and he is also an uncle of mine.
, I know his character very well, and he will not do anything to betray the Gods."
"Yeah." I listened to Bai Ze's words and nodded as expected.
"Secondly, Father God knew that we were somewhat suspicious of Uncle Yingwei, so he specially took me to look for him in Uncle Yingwei's study."
"Ah? In person?"
I was a little shocked by Tianjun's straightforwardness, but precisely because of this, I suddenly understood in my heart that Mr. Tingwei was unlikely to be a traitor to the God Realm. I think Tianjun probably knew his boss very well.
Man.
"yes."
Bai Ze nodded and continued, "Finally, Mr. Takami and Father God told me everything. Three days ago, he was secretly looking for me on Father God's order, but for some reason there was no clue. In the end,
Father God and Immortal Jingjiu told him that I was about to return to the divine realm in the human world, so they ordered him to go and investigate the person behind the god's attendant."
"What?"
Hearing Bai Ze's words, I first looked at Bai Ze and hesitated for a moment, and then it was these words that made the growing annoyance in my mind clear away and see the morning.
Bai Ze said that in the end it was his father God and Immortal Jing Jiu who told Mr. Takami who was looking for him that Bai Ze was about to return to the God Realm, and then asked Mr. Takami to investigate the people behind the god's attendant.
Just like the pot of hibiscus tea given to me by the Immortal on the Cloud.
Everything, perhaps Tianjun and Immortal Jingjiu already knew when they were detecting God's will.
As for me, the frustration I felt after going to Tianlao and Huashen Temple was precisely because I couldn't see through the hidden implications.
Bai Ze's words made me understand instantly.
From the moment Father God exchanged me for Xiaoxian, I secretly felt that everything was not that simple. I was afraid that Father God had not fully told me something.
The attitudes of the gods and Immortal Jingjiu also made me feel more and more that the reason behind my return was not only because of the love of God the Father.
Maybe the answer lies behind these things.
As it stands now, I have to pursue this matter myself so that I can understand what I will allocate later.
If there is a cause for my birth, then... how about just following the cause and seeing the effect as everyone wants.
…
Seeing my hesitation, Bai Ze looked at me firmly.
"Mr. Takami said that he did go to find the divine attendant that night, but the divine attendant was still alive when he went, and he went to him for this reason." Bai Ze said and gave me a list.
"What is this?" I suppressed the turbulent thoughts in my heart, took the paper from Bai Ze's hand, and asked in surprise when I looked at the name on it.
"The results of the secret investigation by Father God and Mr. Ting Wei. Father God had known that someone in the God Realm was being instigated to rebel, so he has been secretly investigating with Mr. Ting Wei. Can you first see whose name is on it?" Bai Ze looked at me seriously.
said.
"Wanxin?" I saw Wanxin's name on the list.
Bai Ze nodded, "So I guess that everyone on this list has had contact with the devil world."
I looked at this list over and over again and couldn't help but laugh, "This is really interesting."
What I mean by interesting is not only the people on the list, but also everything that matches my speculation.
To be continued...
