If the Divine Hall knew that Ning Que was on the Peach Mountain, he would definitely die.
Ye Hongyu said that it was a promise of life and death because he had come to the Seat of Heavenly Black Jade bravely, or perhaps foolishly. Then his life was in her hands.
Her tone was a little sarcastic, because the words "promise of life and death" not only described the situation that Ning Que was facing, but also the reason why he came to the Peach Mountain.
What was love in the world? It made people pledge their lives to each other. It was usually because of love. Ning Que didn't come to the Peach Mountain for her. He probably didn't come for Chen Pipi, who was imprisoned in the You Prison. He must have come for the person in the Divine Hall of Light.
Losing one's head for love and seeking one's own death, what a foolish choice this was.
Ye Hongyu had always thought that Ning Que was one of the few people in the world who was as calm and sensible as she was. Therefore, she could not help but feel disappointed when she saw him indulging in the childish choice of dying for love like the male protagonists in novels. Naturally, she mocked him.
Ning Que and she were indeed the same kind of people. Hearing this sentence, he understood the hidden meaning in her words. After a moment of silence, he said, "This time I ask for your help, not because of her, but because of Pipi. You and he had the same childhood memories. Can you really watch him be burned to ashes?"
Ye Hongyu said expressionlessly, "My childhood memories are the same as the one in the Divine Hall of Light and you. They are the images that I want to forget and hate the most."
As she spoke, she was still leaning on the Seat of Heavenly Black Jade. She looked at the black ground in front of the Seat of Heavenly Black Jade. She did not turn around or look at Ning Que who was below the Seat of Heavenly Black Jade.
Ning Que looked at her beautiful profile and suddenly said, "I met Ye Su in Linkang."
If Ye Hongyu had heard Ning Que's words before she received the letter, she might have said something different. Then no one would know how this conversation would end.
She just said indifferently, "Haotian knows everything in the world. You can hide your arrival from the Hierarch and me, but you can't hide it from her. I don't know what Haotian is thinking, so I won't interfere. You are destined to die on this mountain, not in my hands. "
After saying this, she closed her eyes and said no more, as if she was going to sleep again. No sound could be heard in the empty Divine Hall of Judgment. It was so quiet that it was frightening.
Ning Que kept silent for a long time and then stepped back. When the huge and cold crystal lamp above the Divine Hall of Judgment could no longer shine on his face, he said to her, "Thank you."
From the moment he entered the Divine Hall of Judgment, he had given his life to Ye Hongyu. As long as she opened her eyes and glanced at him or said a single word, countless experts of the Divine Hall would appear. However, she did nothing. He was grateful for her warning and also for not killing him.
There was no more sound in the darkness, not even the sound of breathing. Ning Que left without a sound. Ye Hongyu still did not open her eyes. She sat quietly on the black jade throne.
Many years ago, she had told Ning Que that one day, they would meet on the battlefield, and one of them would die. There had never been any good memories between them that could last longer than life and death.
Killing Ning Que could put an end to the war immediately. Logically speaking, as the Great Divine Priest of Judgment, she should not have any hesitation. However, she chose to remain silent. Because she wanted Chen Pipi to live. Since she could not do anything for her brother, she could only hope that Ning Que could do it.
The most important problem was that she did not know if the person in the Divine Hall of Light was watching here. She did not know what arrangement that person had made for Ning Que.
The person who should have been above the vault of heaven had come to the human world. Therefore, the human world had become chaotic and complicated. Even if the Great Divine Priest of Revelation, Li Qingshan, and Master Qishan were reborn at the same time, and the Abbey Dean had returned to his peak state, they would not be able to figure out the final direction of the chess game. Because heaven was unpredictable.
It was silent in the Divine Hall of Judgment. Ye Hongyu sat quietly on the black jade throne with her hands supporting her chin. She thought of the coming Rite to Light and gradually fell asleep. She did not want to think about it anymore.
The blood-colored Judgement God Robe covered her perfect body. The blood-colored Black Jade Throne nourished her mental state. She looked dignified and lonely at the same time.
…
…
In the autumn of the 3450th year of Dazhi, the Rite to Light was officially held on Peach Mountain.
Several small towns in front of Peach Mountain had been heavily guarded. More than two thousand papal cavalrymen wearing armor with talisman lines rode on handsome horses and patrolled around vigilantly. The front yard of Peach Mountain was even more guarded. More than a hundred West-Hill Divine Guards carrying divine knives were watching the passages around like eagles.
In the early morning, envoys and believers from various countries entered the mountain one after another. However, the mountain path was silent. No one dared to make a noise. It was not because of the calming effect of the ritual music coming from the front yard, but because of the solemn and sacred atmosphere that enveloped the entire Peach Mountain.
More than ten Talisman Masters and Array Tactical Masters stood in the center of the front yard of Peach Mountain and began to activate the array that had been set up beforehand. The array was activated. The autumn wind on Peach Mountain gradually became stronger. Peach Blossom petals were scattered in the wind. The Qi of Heaven and Earth in the foothills was summoned. Dozens of Haotian Sect flags were fluttering in the wind. The forty-seven waterfalls on Peach Mountain were broken into countless tiny water droplets that were blown to the front yard of Peach Mountain and then slowly fell.
The drizzle fell on the front yard of Peach Mountain. The dust was collected and the dry autumn air was gone. The flat stone ground was washed clean. The altar made of white stone was as clean as jade.
The drizzle from the waterfall was turned into mist by the autumn sun. The mist rose into the air and turned into three big shields. When the mist dissipated, it turned into three halos made of clear light, covering the entire Peach Mountain. The clear light gradually disappeared, but the three big arrays had been set up.
Tens of thousands of believers were also sprinkled by the drizzle. Their clothes were not wet. Instead, they felt refreshed. When the three cloud shields turned into three halos and finally into three arrays, those believers who saw such arrays for the first time were so excited that they knelt on the ground and kept praising Haotian.
The new emperor of the Yan Kingdom, Chongming, arrived. So did the emperors of the small kingdoms such as Song, Qi, Liang, and Zhen. The lord of the Song family, the abbot of the Lanke Temple, Monk Guan Hai, the World Wayfarer of Buddhism, Xuankong Temple's Qi Nian, the national master of the Golden Tribe Royal Court and the number one martial arts master of the Royal Court, General Lebu, the rogue cultivators from all over the world, the teachers and students of the Revelation Institute, the divine priests and deacons of the four Divine Halls, and even the servants were here.
These people stood closer to the foot of the mountain, far away from the tens of thousands of believers. They watched the believers kneeling on the ground and praying, each with their own thoughts. The divine priests and deacons of the Divine Halls of West-Hill were naturally proud. The Buddhist priests remained silent. The national master of the Royal Court smiled and said nothing. General Lebu, however, frowned.
Two sacred chariots slowly descended from Peach Mountain and stopped above the front yard.
The sacred chariot in the middle was extremely huge. There were thousands of rays of light shining through the layers of gauze. There was a tall figure in the light. It was the Hierarch Lord of the Divine Halls of West-Hill.
The sacred chariot on the side was relatively smaller, but the gauze was as red as blood. It was indescribably cold and murderous. A beautiful woman was sitting in the chariot. Her black hair flowed like a waterfall. It was the Great Divine Priest of Judgment, Ye Hongyu.
It was the first time for most of the believers to see the Hierarch and the Great Divine Priest of Judgment. After seeing the two sacred chariots, they were so excited that even their voices trembled.
The bigwigs on the front yard felt even more complicated. The Divine Halls of West-Hill had always ruled the world of Haotian. The Hierarch Lord and the three Great Divine Priests of West-Hill were the most powerful beings in the world. However, the Great Divine Priest of Revelation was dead and there was no successor. The Divine Hall of Light had been in constant turmoil for the past 20 years. Now, even the eternal lamp in the hall had been extinguished. Today's Rite to Light was so grand, but the two sacred chariots seemed so lonely, which made the Divine Halls of West-Hill look even more gloomy.
Compared to the Divine Halls of West-Hill, the guests who came to watch the ceremony were more powerful. Apart from the Academy and the Devil's Doctrine of the Wilderness, almost all the powerful cultivators in the human world were present. Among them, the national master of the Royal Court and Qi Nian of the Xuankong Temple were the most distinguished, which made the Sword Garret of South Jin Kingdom even more conspicuous.
The representative of the Sword Garret of South Jin Kingdom was Liu Yiqing. This blind swordsman in the Knowing Destiny State was rumored to have killed the Emperor of South Jin Kingdom. However, compared to the other people at the Rite to Light, he was still lacking. This made the Divine Halls of West-Hill very dissatisfied.
The Hierarch's palanquin released his power and everyone could feel his displeasure.
At this moment, a white line suddenly appeared in the clear blue sky above Peach Mountain. The white line was very thin, as if someone had drawn a line on the blue sky with a needle.
Then, a sword appeared in the front yard of Peach Mountain.
The sword looked very ordinary. The hilt was wrapped in soft and dense Songjiang cloth. The blade was probably made of green steel. It did not look very sharp, and there were no Fu characters carved on it.
But everyone's eyes were attracted by the sword.
Because the sword was not in anyone's hand. It was suspended in the air above the front yard of Peach Mountain. The sword vibrated slightly, making the air vibrate and making a comfortable sound.
No one knew how the sword came to the front yard.
Even the Hierarch Lord, the national master of the Royal Court, and Qi Nian could only see a thin white line in the sky before the sword appeared in front of them.
Moreover, the Invisible Array that covered the outermost layer of Peach Mountain could not stop the sword at all. It did not even react. That was the most shocking thing.
The flying sword quietly hovered in the air, as if it was held by an invisible hand.
If someone was behind the sword, they would see that the head of the sword was slightly raised, facing the Divine Hall of Light on Peach Mountain. There was no sign of disrespect. It just looked at that place quietly.
