It was not easy to be a lifesaver.
There was a limit to the number of elixirs, and one day, it would be used up. Using elixirs to prolong one's life was truly a hopeless method. However, Wang Lu's current attitude was truly frightening.
Regardless of the cost, regardless of the cost, even if the flood overflowed to the heavens and both sides perished together, he would not hesitate!
"You won't be able to hold on until the end." Yunkongjun's expression sank as he said, "The strange poison in her body was refined from a trace of my source. Now, it has already penetrated deep into her soul and even into her bone marrow. Unless I die, no one can completely remove the poison."
Wang Lu still sneered, "Let's wait and see. I want to see how many years you, an old monster, have left in your life!"
Yunkongjun suddenly could not maintain his composure, "You are courting death! She has been poisoned by me, and it is impossible for her to continue the royal bloodline. Once she dies, this monolith will immediately collapse, and I will regain my freedom! At that time, I will make you die a horrible death! "
However, Wang Lu did not pay any attention to him. In Wang Lu's view, there was no need to waste words with a dead person. After a period of time, under the increasingly stable suppression of the monolith, Yunkongjun would not even have the strength to speak. Thus, why would he care about the crazy barking of a dog?
Since there was no point in going, Wang Lu directly controlled the flying sword under the soft bed and brought Princess Yunyue, the current Yunyue Queen, back. Next, he wanted to bring Yunyue back to Yunyang City and rule the world. This process might be far longer than he expected, but at this point, Wang Lu no longer cared about the investment and output, and he would not consider giving up halfway. Since he wanted to play, no matter what, he had to play to the end and win.
"Very good."
When Wang Lu turned around, he heard Yunkongjun's faint and indistinct voice.
"Work hard, work hard to use your elixirs to prolong her life. If you are really lucky enough to delay until the day I die, then it will be considered your victory. But if you can't delay me, when I escape, I swear that I will crush everything in the Yun Nation. I will spread the most vicious and terrifying poison in the mountains and rivers, making this place barren for a thousand years. I will completely cut off the foundation of the Yun Nation and make everyone in the Yun Nation wail in pain and despair as they die. And when I hibernate under the stone tablet, I will also continuously curse this country, curse this land, I will use all my power to permeate outwards, slowly corroding everything in the Cloud Nation. You will see droughts, floods, locusts, plagues … While you are using elixirs to barely hang on to your lives, I will slowly push everything that you hold dear into the abyss. "
Wang Lu sneered and ignored him. However, at this moment, Princess Yunyue slowly propped herself up from the soft bed and said in a weak but firm voice, "Yunkongjun, do you really want to place such a malicious curse on the country that you single-handedly created? Why? "
Yunkongjun smiled and said, "How I use my things is my freedom. I single-handedly created the Yun Nation, so naturally, I can destroy it with my own hands!"
"No, you absolutely do not have such freedom!"
Under the astonished gaze of Wang Lu, Princess Yunyue stood up. Her slightly trembling figure exuded strength, but her elegant face was filled with frost.
"This country, after experiencing the efforts of dozens of generations for a thousand years, is no longer a private property that belongs to you alone. You do not have the qualifications to point fingers at us, and even more so, you do not have the qualifications to control our life and death! "
Yunkongjun coldly said, "Qualifications have never been discussed. If I insist on cursing this land, what can a virtuous sovereign like you do to me?"
Wang Lu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Why waste time with this kind of old ruffian? Follow me back and slowly think of a countermeasure. If there is a way to let you give birth to a child, then we will use the method of endless generations to crush him. "
Princess Yunyue smiled and shook her head. Then, she slowly and resolutely walked down from the soft bed. However, the moment her foot touched the ground, Wang Lu sensed that something was wrong. Suddenly startled, he stretched out his hand to stop her. "Don't do anything stupid!"
But it was too late. Princess Yunyue had already made her decision and could no longer change it. Wang Lu's hand that grabbed Yunyue only touched a ball of mist.
"You..."
Yunyue gently turned her head and smiled. Her figure had already risen with the wind. Her light footsteps left the ground, like a dancing fairy.
"Immortal, you just said that I have the aptitude of the heavenly spirit root. Now, I feel that I really have the heavenly spirit root ~"
As she spoke, millions of flower petals suddenly surged out from the forest surrounding the royal tomb like a wave. They gathered under Yunyue's feet and rotated, forming a magnificent whirlpool. Yunyue smiled and took a deep breath. Then, she suddenly raised her head. The flower petals under her feet lifted her up high and she soared into the sky.
Such a miraculous scene made it hard for people to believe that just a short while ago, she was just an ordinary person who had no divine abilities and was on the verge of death from poison.
The current her was agile and lively. She danced in the air to her heart's content. Behind her was a magnificent ribbon of flower petals. Her entire body was filled with the aura of life, as if she was a mountain fairy.
As she danced in the air, her complexion became more and more rosy. The traces left by the carrion grass on her body were constantly disappearing. Princess Yunyue's beauty that could cause the downfall of cities and countries was also constantly recovering.
However, Wang Lu did not have the heart to appreciate Yunyue's beauty at this moment, because...
The miracles of the world usually came with a price. Yunyue's current elegance, rather than saying that it was some heavenly spirit root, it was more like the final radiance of the setting sun.
The dancing flower petals were not gathered because of magic power. Instead, it was the gratitude of all living things in the Yun Nation. They were willing to be controlled by her. Such a miracle required the right time, the right place, and the right people. The so-called right time was currently noon. The scorching sun hung high in the sky, illuminating everything. This was the time when the power of the dead souls was at its weakest. As for the right place, in the face of Yunkongjun's insane curse, all living things in the world were united against a common enemy, making it easy to mobilize. As for the right people, this was the burial ground of dozens of Yun Nation's kings. Some of these kings were wise and some were mediocre, but not one of them did not love and protect this land. At this moment, the souls of the dead were summoned by Yunyue and gave their support. If not for this, Princess Yunyue would not have been able to comprehend the method of power so quickly.
Wang Lu was not a member of the Yun Nation's royal family, but he could faintly hear the murmurs of the previous kings. It was as if they were teaching Yunyue a brand new method of power. As the focus of everything, Yunyue absorbed this knowledge at an astonishing speed and paid a huge price to trigger this miracle.
"Yunyue, you've really … broadened my horizons. To use supreme merit to command all living things in the world, I have only seen such a phenomenon in books before, but I never thought that it would actually happen. "
On the ground, Wang Lu's gaze was incomparably complicated. Apart from shock and praise, it was also difficult to conceal a trace of pity and sorrow.
"It's just that, to pay such a price... just to protect this country for a moment, is it worth it?"
Yunyue calmly said, "This has never been a question of whether it's worth it or not."
For a time, Wang Lu was speechless. Actually, he had already guessed Yunyue's answer. In fact, without this awareness, Yunyue would not have obtained such a huge amount of merit. The law of heaven and earth in Nine Regions was just so arrogant, even though it was done with the intention to do good, it was not rewarded. For a professional like Wang Lu, the so-called virtuous path had no possibility of success. In fact, for most rational people nowadays, the word "virtuous" seemed somewhat illusory. After the Age of Chaos, the word "virtuous" had gradually been forgotten by people. Only in the historical records were the miracles created by the predecessors. And this kind of ordinary person who could directly command all living things in the world by virtue of virtuous was very rare even in the history books.
And at this time, Wang Lu suddenly noticed that Yunyue's face was also faintly changing. Perhaps the power of virtuous could really purify the body, change the meridians and cleanse the marrow. Yunyue's originally delicate and beautiful face, set off by the sea of petals, became even more beautiful. The young girl's body was gradually enveloped in a layer of holy aura, like a fairy descending to the earth.
Wang Lu watched in surprise. He only felt that Yunyue's face was becoming more and more familiar. It was gradually becoming consistent with a certain unforgettable face in the depths of his memory, and that face, belonged to...
Just at this time, Yunyue completed all of her preparations. She spread her arms, and the sea of petals under her feet carried all of her strength and poured down. Amidst the gorgeous sky, Wang Lu's breathing stagnated. Because in his mind, that unforgettable face had clearly emerged, completely overlapping with the girl in the sky.
Where the rain of petals fell, all living things became clear. The stone tablet that stood in the royal tomb, under the baptism of the rain of petals, gradually sank, until it was completely buried into the ground. And below the stone tablet, Yunkongjun let out painful howls and curses. But very quickly, Yunkongjun's voice became weak, and then it was drowned in the gentle breeze. The devil that had occupied the Yun Country for thousands of years, just like that, vanished like smoke in thin air.
At the same time, Yunyue, who was in the sky, had already exhausted her strength. Her body became faintly discernible, almost transparent. After releasing an unprecedented amount of power, she had to pay the price. It was already difficult for her to maintain her existence.
This price, she did not say it out loud, but Wang Lu saw it clearly and was shocked.
She sacrificed herself. And not only herself as Yunyue, but also the dozens of reincarnations after Yunyue's death. During this period, whenever this land was threatened, she would sacrifice herself to protect everything.
At this moment, Yunyue had already become the true guardian of the Yun Country. And how could an ordinary princess, in such a short period of time, comprehend such a profound law and raise herself to the realm of deities? This point, even Wang Lu could not explain clearly. Apart from the timing, geographical, and human conditions... perhaps Yunyue really possessed an exceptional aptitude that no one had ever seen before.
Perhaps, she really had the Heavenly Spirit Root, an unknown but incomparably powerful Heavenly Spirit Root.
"Ah, I knew you were not an ordinary person, but I did not expect you to be so handsome."
Wang Lu softly muttered to himself, closed his eyes, and the scenes of the past appeared in his mind.
"Long time no see, Grand Cloud Fairy."
