Gu Yao frowned: "No? I heard that they are just a killer organization that does things for money."
"Really? It's a pity that this is just a cover-up reason?" Chun Yuxuan asked with a sneer: "Do you think that with the level of those people just now, they will still work hard for money?"
Gu Yao was speechless. Indeed, those killers were considered to be rare strong men on the mainland. They would not be disfigured for money and would even self-destruct. There should be other reasons to order them.
Chun Yuxuan continued: "Do you know when the Dark Scarf began to appear? It happened to be a period of time before the disintegration of the Luo Ao Empire!"
"Why are they doing this?"
"It's very simple. If you think about it from another perspective, if you are the pope and want to deal with someone or a certain force, but that person or force has a positive image in the mainland and has won the support of the people, can you still act openly?"
Gu Yao agreed: "It makes sense, the temple wouldn't be that stupid!"
"That's right, the Dark Scarf was established for this purpose," Chun Yuxuan said: "Whenever it is inconvenient to take action personally, the temple will be handed over to the Dark Scarf, such as the stumbling block that hindered the split of the Luo Empire. At that time, the empire
Many important people died or lost their lives inexplicably
He disappeared because of the hands of the Dark Scarf. Even after the disintegration of the empire, the Dark Scarf was an accomplice of the temple to stir up trouble and put blame on others. As long as the disputes between the various forces continue and they are at odds with each other, it will never become a climate.
There will be no second Luo Empire."
Gu Yao thought for a moment and then said: "How can the temple make everyone serve it wholeheartedly? Aren't they afraid of individual traitors leaking secrets?"
"No, they are all clergy selected from the temple guards. They have been brainwashed by magic. Like puppets, they have no other thoughts except executing orders. In addition, their bodies seem to have been
The medicine has been modified and the potential is discovered very quickly, but it violates the laws of nature. The life span is very short and will not exceed forty! It is also given a special ancient magic. After the member is seriously injured, he can detonate his fighting energy on his own. Even after death, the body will also
It will self-destruct, just like what you just saw."
The more Chunyuxuan talked, the more Gu Yao felt that the temple was like a real cult, with brainwashing, assassination, self-destruction, everything.
"Miss, are you okay?" At this time, the guards of the Chunyu family also arrived. Seeing the messy situation, they hurriedly asked.
"It's okay. They're just a few clowns. Let's deal with the funeral quickly. Starting today, the security will be strengthened. In addition, don't let the news of what happened just now get out, so as not to panic the people in the county!" Chun Yuxuan gave the order calmly and competently. It was as if the assassination was not done at all.
That happened.
"Yes, Miss!" The guard seemed to respect Chun Yuxuan very much and said respectfully.
After the instructions were completed, Chun Yuxuan took Gu Yao towards the family. Gu Yao said: "Why did the Dark Scarf attack you?"
"Because our family's royal status was leaked for some reason thirty years ago and became known to the temple." Chun Yuxuan said: "Since then, direct members of our family have been constantly attacked by the Dark Scarf.
They are everywhere. After we learned by chance that the manipulator behind the Dark Scarf was the Temple, the family had suffered heavy losses and many people died, including my father and two brothers.
Inside!"
When Chunyu Xuan said this, he showed a rare hint of anger: "After all, the Chunyu family also has a great influence in the mainland. Concerned about face and reputation, the temple could not take action personally or impose unfounded charges, so it sent the Dark Scarf to assassinate us.
The family members want to eradicate the royal family, or at least force us to be cooped up within the family and unable to make a difference on the mainland."
Chunyu Xuan paused for a moment and continued: "Now you should know why the Chunyu family has withered away in modern times, and the new generation has to undergo cruel tests early before they can debut, because as long as the temple and the dark scarf exist,
The threat to life will always hang over every member of the Chunyu family, and we may be attacked to death at any time. The first thing we do when we come into the world is to learn to survive!"
No wonder Chunyu Xuan and even the entire Chunyu family have a scheming image. If they are in such a difficult situation and have to face conspiracies and plots all the time, in order to protect themselves, then they will become more and more cunning.
In turn, he plotted against others. Thinking of this, Gu Yao began to understand Chun Yuxuan a little bit.\\\\\\
The same is about survival. The biggest problems when I was a child were hunger and disease. As for Chun Yuxuan, when she was still a baby, the most powerful force in the world wanted to kill her. As Chun Yuxuan grew up, her wisdom, her
Power will become a thorn in the temple's side that must be eliminated.
Who could have imagined how heavy the pressure was on her. Even though she was persecuted by the temple and lost her father, she still endured the pain, remained calm and composed, and even responded with a smile. This made Gu Yao deeply admired and admired Chunyu.
Xuan looked at him with admiration.
As he spoke, he had already reached the gate of the Chunyu family. What greeted the guests were two dragons carved on the beams that were winding and about to fly for nine days. They also placed the goals of the Chunyu family. They hoped that one day they could revitalize the royal family and live in the Kadi continent.
Take off again.
There were a few people in the Chunyu family mansion, at least it was too deserted for a big family. Even if many family members were killed, it would not be like this. Gu Yao couldn't help but wonder.
"Most of my people are not in the family." Chun Yuxuan saw Gu Yao's thoughts and explained: "Due to the relationship between the Dark Scarf, the enemy is in the light and I am in the dark. This is a very unfavorable situation. Many people are doing it for the family.
The tribesmen who traveled around due to their great undertakings all changed their surnames on the mainland, and some even never returned to the family for more than ten or twenty years, but only used special methods to keep in touch at all times."
Chun Yuxuan did not hide anything from Gu Yao, or the Demon God in Gu Yao's body, because the Demon God was the most important move in Chunyu's family's revival. If even the Demon God could not be trusted, the revival would be in vain.
He casually summoned a maid over and after whispering a few words, the maid nodded and left.
Like most families, the architecture here maintains the ancient mainland courtyard style, which is simple and generous, without gorgeous decorations. But it is not easy to get bored.
Entering a hall with Gu Yao, the guests and hosts sat down. Chun Yuxuan did not mention anything about the temple or the family at this time, but just greeted guests from afar.
Gu Yao knew that Chun Yuxuan would not just invite her to the family as a guest. Important matters involving the family's thousand-year feud and revival plan would definitely not be handled by Chun Yuxuan alone. Although she was already very capable, she still
We need someone who can speak out better to come forward.
"Cough, cough..."
The coughing sound coming from the door of the hall confirmed Gu Yao's guess. An old man was seen walking in with difficulty on crutches with the support of the maid. Following closely behind him, there was the place that Gu Yao had seen in the devil world.
An old woman whom Chun Yuxuan calls "grandma" and whom Chun Yuxuan trusts very much.
"grandfather!"
Chun Yuxuan hurried over and helped the old man to his seat and sat down.
The old woman looked at Gu Yao with quite surprised eyes, just like Chun Yuxuan did when she saw Gu Yao in Juying Tower. Chun Yuxuan came to her side and said a few words, and then the old woman suddenly understood.
Chun Yuxuan believed in the old woman very much. But after all, she was not from the Chunyu family, and the protagonist must be someone else. Apart from her, the only ones left were the maid and the old man.
Gu Yao looked at the old man. He had white hair, a face full of wrinkles, and a white eyebrow hanging down to his temples. He looked very old. He would cough a few times from time to time, and he looked like he was suffering from illness. Only the occasional signs in his cloudy old eyes appeared.
Only when he was naked did people realize that he was an extraordinary person.
According to Chun Yuxuan's title, the old man should be Chunyu Gang, the current head of the Chunyu family.
Chunyu Gang said to the maid: "Nami, there is nothing else to do. You go down first."
Having been in the Chunyu family for such a long time, the maidservant was very knowledgeable at that time. It must be an extremely important matter for the head of the family to receive someone in person, and it was not something she could attend. After saying goodbye, she left the hall.
"Grandpa, I'm so sorry for disturbing your rest." Behind Chun Yugang, she rubbed her shoulders. At this time, Chun Yuxuan lost the appearance of a shrewd and cunning strong woman and became a completely filial granddaughter.
"Haha, we have a distinguished guest coming to our family, how can we be indifferent?" Chun Yugang said one sentence, and then coughed several times, looking like a candle in the wind. If you didn't know him, you would definitely not think that he was the head of the Chunyu family.
.
Compared with Chun Yuxuan's domineering temperament, Chun Yugang is very gentle and low-key, just like the old man next door: "It's an old habit, dear guest, I'm sorry."
Seeing Chunyu Gang speaking to him so politely, Gu Yao felt a little awkward. Regardless of Chunyu's status as the head of the family, he was already an old man after all. For this reason, he, a younger generation, felt that
It was quite rude. Of course, Gu Yao understood that Chunyu Gang was respectful to the demon in his body.
No matter what, Gu Yao still returned the gift as a sign of respect from the younger generation to the elder.
"I heard that His Majesty the Demonic Temple has talked a lot with Xiaoxuan, so I won't be nagging anymore. The sincerity of the Chunyu family's cooperation is undoubted. We also hope to help His Majesty the Demonic Temple regain his physical body, so that he can fly outside the universe again without any doubts.
It's impossible." Chunyu Gang did not delay, and straight to the point made his willingness to cooperate clear.
"What should I do about this? You have been preparing for a long time. You should have a plan. We might as well talk about it." After communicating with the devil, Gu Yao conveyed his meaning.
Chunyu Gang said: "We have considered two paths. First, expose the mastermind and crimes behind the temple, so that all people on the mainland can understand the truth, no longer blindly believe in it, and even rise up to oppose its atrocities. If we get help from the public,
The overthrow of the temple is just around the corner. However, this road is not feasible. It is covered with ice and cannot be frozen in a day. The temple is well concealed and leaves no trace. Not only is the work of the Anti-Heaven Sect for hundreds of years in vain, but it has also been destroyed.
He was given the reputation of a heretic."
"Yes, this is impossible!" Gu Yao deeply agreed. He had witnessed with his own eyes the fervent belief in the God of Light among the people in Kadi Continent. Almost every household had a statue of the god, and weddings and other important events had to be carried out.
Sacrifice to the gods and pray for blessings. The temple is almost the spokesperson of the God of Light. It has great influence and is very good at showing off. It has deceived the vast majority of the world into thinking that they are merciful saviors. The Anti-Heaven Sect is doomed to fail.
"So, what about the second way?"
"Forcibly destroy the temple and kill the pope!" Chunyugang paused and then said: "But there is no other way. The temple has the power of divine power to help and has cultivated countless strong men. To put it bluntly, light
With our current strength, even if we unite with the Anti-Tian Sect or more of our comrades, we will still be like ants standing behind us, unable to achieve anything."
The demon can also obtain external information through Gu Yao's body. He was already agitated and became even more impatient when he heard Chunyugang's words: "This won't work either. That won't work either. Boy, just ask the old guy if you have anything.
Say, don’t beat around the bush, I hate the human nature that likes to show off mysteries the most!”
Gu Yao was not worried. Since Chun Yuxuan brought him here to listen to a lot of useless nonsense, Chun Yugang must have thought of a way, but that way might be a bit troublesome.
But having a way is better than being helpless, so Gu Yao said: "May I ask the master of the house if he has any clever ideas?"
Chunyugang coughed twice: "Under the Demon Temple. You should have heard of Tianwaitian, are you familiar with it?"
Gu Yao was surprised when he heard this. Even he had heard of the term Tianwaitian. There were related records in the library of the Holy Academy. Summoners were even more familiar with Tianwaitian because of the creatures they summoned.
It comes from heaven beyond heaven.
It is said that Tianwaitian is a mysterious cosmic space that is completely different from the Kadi Continent and the Lost Continent. It is different from small planes such as dungeons that are created due to space distortion. No one knows how long Tianwaitian exists.
And its location. However, people speculate that this mysterious space is near the Lost Continent.
In terms of the relatively huge universe nearby, in fact, the outer sky and the Kadi continent are on two parallel lines and cannot intersect, so no one has discovered its existence throughout the long history.
It was not until more than 10,000 years ago that extraterrestrial geniuses were first known to people. It was a sunny afternoon, but the sky suddenly darkened, the sun was swallowed up, and the moon could not be seen. The earth fell into darkness, and one after another came
The ground is like a huge lightning. This celestial phenomenon does not occur somewhere in the Kadi continent, but covers the entire continent. People are panicked. Some people even think that the end of the world is coming.
What frightened them even more was that in the sky where silver and lightning danced, a large number of unknown strange creatures appeared. Some of them looked like snakes, but they had four legs, mouths and feet, and they were many times larger than snakes;
There are also colorful and extremely beautiful wings. Big birds that spit out flames, four-legged monsters that roar like thunder, soar into the clouds and mist, foxes with nine tails...
The appearance of these creatures has plunged the Kadi continent into complete chaos. They all have unimaginable destructive power. They can move the wind and rain, turn rivers upside down, and cause landslides and landslides. Even now, no master on the continent can reach their realm, let alone
It was ten thousand years ago before even fighting spirit was born.
The earth was dark for three days, and this group of creatures also made noise in the Kadi continent for three days, as if they were playing, but they left the Kadi continent riddled with holes. They did not disappear until the sky turned white again.
What is left behind is endless shock.
Among them, the snake-like monster with four legs left the most profound impression on people. Three days after landing on the mainland, various monsters would fight and even fight with each other, and the snake-like monsters and other types of monsters
It always has an overwhelming upper hand in battles and can be said to be the strongest type among the monsters. People gave it a name - Dragon.
After that, the dragon became a mythical beast and a symbol of the emperor. Dragon totems and stone carvings are still popular on the mainland and are regarded as warding off evil spirits.
Another creature, the colorful big birds, also left a deep impression on people. They are the only species that dare to fight against dragons. Although their destructive power is not as powerful as dragons, some of them are even killed. However, every time the big birds
After death, they will be in the fire
It was reborn again and again and rejoined the fight, which made the dragon fearful. For this reason, people gave the big bird a name - Phoenix. Because the Phoenix has bright and beautiful feathers, it is also called "Phoenix", which means "Phoenix".
For the beautiful queen.
After the sky change, people speculated that there was another space besides the space they lived in. That cosmic space was called "the sky outside the sky". Those powerful and abnormal creatures, including dragons, were
From heaven beyond heaven.
What blocks the gap between Kadi Continent and Tianwaitian is a river of time and space. Occasionally, some playful creatures from Tianwaitian will wander into the river of time and space. They are not as invincible as the creatures that made a big splash in Kadi Continent, but
It is also a very useful tool for humans. What is even more interesting is that through a certain contract, the creatures from the Outer Worlds can come to you at any time through time and space. Those who study contracts and the creatures from the Outer Worlds have become summoners.
When Gu Yao was studying in the Holy Academy, the wretched male Original Sin was a summoner. Since the creatures in the world all have their own unique abilities, the summoner has become a profession that cannot be underestimated.
However, since ancient times, no one has been able to do the feat of summoning dragons and phoenixes, because they are too strong and ignore humans at all. Besides, no human can control dragons and phoenixes. If they are really summoned, I am afraid they will
Playing with fire and burning himself. Dominique, the founder of Xiaoyao Sect who successfully summoned the nine-tailed fox, is already the greatest summoner in history. No one can surpass him yet.
In the tens of thousands of years of history that followed, similar celestial changes occurred in the continent, about once every few hundred years, but they were never as large as the first time when all the beasts appeared together, and the most powerful ones such as dragons, phoenixes, and unicorns were not seen.
The legend of Tianwaitian has been passed down to modern times, and people firmly believe it. However, no one knows what Tianwaitian is like and what other creatures there are.
Now hearing Chunyugang mention it, Gu Yao couldn't help but be full of curiosity.
The Demon God fell silent for a while, and then said after a long while: "Yes, I know, and I have personally been there. Tianwai Tian is the seat of the true God!"
