"Zhong Shan!" Gu Zhengyi looked at Zhong Shan with a glimmer of light in his eyes.
After Gu Zhengyi entered the Great Thousand World, he kept a low profile, so Zhong Shan knew very little about him. However, Zhong Shan had overcome all obstacles and trampled on countless ambitious people all these years. It was impossible for him to keep a low profile. Any major faction with a little bit of interest would definitely pay close attention to Zhong Shan.
Gu Zhengyi naturally knew a lot about Zhong Shan.
When Zhong Shan was still a Golden Core cultivator, Gu Zhengyi had studied Zhong Shan before! However, no matter how high Gu Zhengyi's evaluation of Zhong Shan was, he did not expect him to reach such a level.
One had to know that Zhong Shan had built his foundation step by step with his own efforts!
After not seeing each other for more than a thousand years, the two emperors looked at each other again.
"Daikon State's Heavenly Court! I am Zhong Shan! "Zhong Shan said in a deep voice.
Although he was not wearing the emperor's dragon robe, so what? When one reached the level of a Heavenly Emperor, one would imperceptibly emit the aura of an emperor! Looking down on the common people from above!
"Great Yong's Heavenly Court, I am Gu Zhengyi!" Gu Zhengyi replied.
This was a kind of 'naming' between emperors of equal status. It was a national ceremony, a royal ceremony!
Beside Gu Zhengyi, the two Saints looked at the scene in front of them and looked at Gu Zhengyi in surprise. "Heavenly Emperor, you know Zhong Shan?"
Gu Zhengyi did not answer. Instead, he looked coldly at Ji Gongnie in the distance!
Ji Gongnie's bubble trembled. It was as if he was struggling.
"Heavenly Emperor!"
"Heavenly Emperor!"
"Heavenly Emperor!"
… … …
… … …
… …
The fifty Great Zhou's Zu Xian and countless ghosts in Sacred Fire Metropolis all cried out in grief. It overshadowed the conversation between Zhong Shan and Gu Zhengyi. It overshadowed everything. The entire Sacred Fire Metropolis was filled with voices calling for Ji Gongnie.
"Hum ~!"
Ji Gongnie, who was immersed in his own world, suddenly trembled. He was pulled out.
Immediately, his happy smile disappeared and his face became serious.
Looking up at the sky, it was as if he had returned to reality.
Looking at the eighteen -clawed luck death dragon that was about to dissipate, Ji Gongnie instantly understood everything.
He lowered his head and looked at the ghosts that were prostrating around the Sacred Fire Capital. He then turned to look at the fifty trapped Great Zhou Zu Xian and the phoenix race that was fighting in the cosmos.
Ji Gong Nie's expression became more and more unsightly, but when he looked at Bao Si's clothes in his arms, his unsightly expression became much better.
"Heaven Emperor, Prime Minister Jiang is dead. Everyone in the imperial family is dead. The Great Zhou Dynasty has collapsed!" Guo Shi's father, who was surrounded, suddenly cried out.
Ji Gongnie frowned, a hint of pain flashing across his face.
Turning around, Ji Gongnie saw Zhong Shan again.
"I got the news three days ago, but I'm still too late!" Zhong Shan shook his head and sighed.
Smiling bitterly, Ji Gongnie shook his head and stopped looking at Zhong Shan. Instead, he looked at the ghosts around him.
"Subjects of Great Zhou, I, Ji Gongnie, am not a good emperor! I can no longer lead Great Zhou forward! "Ji Gongnie said with a sorrowful expression.
Ji Gongnie's words caused the surroundings to fall silent.
Not only that, the eighteen clawed death dragon in the sky dissipated even faster. This was because at this moment, Ji Gongnie's words had eerily spread throughout the West Continent.
The people of West Continent who were kneeling and weeping all heard Ji Gongnie's voice.
"Is that the Heaven Emperor's voice? The Heaven Emperor is not dead? "
"The providence above the city is decreasing. No, the Heaven Emperor is dead!"
"But what is that sound? What is that sound? "
… … …
… … … …
… … … …
The people of West Continent quarreled for a while before falling silent. They quietly listened to Ji Gongnie's voice transmitted through the remaining providence.
West of the Sacred Fire Capital.
"Heaven Emperor, Ji Gongnie's bubble definitely won't say anything good. I'll go crush this bubble!" A Saint said.
"Whoosh!"
Zu Xian, who was fighting like a cornered beast, suddenly turned cold and looked at the Saint with great hatred.
Gu Zhengyi shook his head and said, "The ruler of a fallen nation, let him speak!"
"But … …" The Saint frowned.
"Ji Gongnie is the true Emperor. He has the right to speak at the end. Even if it's just 'hatred' against me, it's still the right of an Emperor. I wasn't afraid of him when I was alive, so why would I be afraid after he's dead?" Gu Zhengyi said in a deep voice.
"Why?" The Saint was confused.
This clearly didn't make sense. Why should he be merciful to his enemies? Why should he be the one to incite a rebellion?
"Alright, don't ask. The Heaven Emperor has his reasons!" Another Saint pulled him aside.
Another Saint understood. Once Ji Gongnie died, ashes to ashes, dust to dust, and Great Zhou would collapse. No matter how much hatred they had, it would be useless. By then, Great Zhou would be history. No matter how hard the people worked, they couldn't restore Great Zhou. Because Ji Gongnie was dead, perhaps the people would reject Great Yong, but not for long.
Secondly, and most importantly, Gu Zhengyi was protecting the dignity of the 'Heaven Emperor', a special group of people. Today, if Gu Zhengyi degraded himself to humiliate the ruler of a fallen nation. In the future, if Gu Zhengyi was restricted in some way, there would be people degrading themselves to humiliate Gu Zhengyi.
The Heaven Emperor was high and mighty! No blasphemy! No manipulation! No humiliation!
This was the consensus of all the Heaven Emperors. Perhaps the Heaven Emperors were hostile to each other, but no one would do anything to lower their status for the title of 'Heaven Emperor'.
The 'Heavenly Emperor' needed to be 'lifted', and not used to be 'stepped on'.
The dignity of the Heaven Emperor, the protection of the Heaven Emperor! Even if it was a fallen Heaven Emperor! That was still a Heaven Emperor!
In front of the Sacred Hall of Fire.
Ji Gongnie looked at the countless souls. With a bitter smile, he said, "I am not a good Heaven Emperor. I am addicted to women, and it is difficult to distinguish between home and country. I have implicated all of you. "
"Once upon a time, I ignored women. I only cared about Great Zhou. I abandoned my humanity. I had the ambition to soar to the heavens. I did not let down the people under the heavens. It was Bao Si who gave me the gentleness of a human. I had the country and the people I loved. I thought it was perfect!"
"But when Bao Si died for me, I suddenly understood. Bao Si had replaced my ambition. Bao Si had filled up my humanity. Bao Si had become a part of my heart. When Bao Si died, my heart died!" Ji Gongnie's tone was light.
As if he was saying a eulogy for himself, the people of Great Zhou all knelt on the ground and trembled.
At this moment, no one blamed Ji Gongnie.
"It is difficult to separate home and country. The country and the people I love cannot be together. Half a month ago, I returned to the imperial capital to preside over the affairs of the world. I forcefully suppressed my heartache, but my 'heart' is already gone. I am already gone!" Ji Gongnie said lightly.
"Sob sob sob sob!"
"Heaven Emperor!"
… … …
… …
… …
Countless female cultivators of Great Zhou cried. At this moment, the pain of the fall of the country seemed to have faded a lot. It was more grief for the Heaven Emperor's heartache.
With the death of the Empress, the Heaven Emperor's heart was already gone? The Heaven Emperor was already gone? But the Heaven Emperor was still forcefully governing Great Zhou. What qualifications did they have to criticize the Heaven Emperor?
For the people of Great Zhou, the Heaven Emperor was already like a walking corpse!
Countless emotional female cultivators cried.
"One cannot have both home and country. My heart followed Bao Si and died. In the mortal world, I am between life and death. I cannot live, I cannot die. If the heavens have feelings, the heavens will also grow old. I will follow Bao Si and abandon Great Zhou. I choose to die, I will not suffer heartless pain!" Ji Gongnie said.
Many male cultivators with strong wills could instantly understand Ji Gongnie's feelings.
If the heavens had feelings, the heavens would also grow old. It was not the mentality of a child, but a kind of great sorrow and pain. It was a sublimation of the realm that transcended the shackles of the world.
"There is no need to avenge me, nor is there a need to hate the person who destroyed me. I do not regret my death, nor do I hate my death. Therefore, I do not need to struggle between life and death. I have no regrets or hatred. The collapse of Great Zhou is because I have let down my subjects. I apologize to the world!" Ji Gongnie said.
As he spoke, Ji Gongnie bowed solemnly to the front.
This bow caused countless ghosts in Sacred Fire Metropolis to tremble!
"Heaven Emperor!" The ghosts knelt to Ji Gongnie.
Similarly, almost all the subjects of the West Continent suddenly knelt down. They knelt in the direction of Sacred Fire Metropolis with complicated feelings.
"Long live the Celestial Emperor!"
"Long live the Celestial Emperor!"
"Long live the Celestial Emperor!"
… … …
… … …
… …
The kneeling commoners in all directions cried out in sorrow.
West of Sacred Fire Metropolis.
"Heaven Emperor, Ji Gongnie asked the subjects of Great Zhou not to hate us?" A Saint said in disbelief.
"I really don't understand this Ji Gongnie!" Another Saint said strangely.
"Speak less, observe more!" Gu Zhengyi said calmly.
"Yes!"
In front of Sacred Fire Metropolis.
"I am dead, and Great Zhou is destroyed. The world is still the same. I can no longer protect the West Continent. The world is in chaos, and I have no intention of doing so. I only have one suggestion for the West Continent to consider! "Ji Gongnie said calmly.
Instantly, everyone in the world knelt down.
"North Continent's Daikon State's Heavenly Court, Heaven Emperor Zhong Shan, is an old friend of mine. He is one of the empresses, and also my descendant. I can make this suggestion for the West Continent to consider and for the people to choose!" Ji Gongnie said.
"Hah!"
The commoners in the West Continent were shocked. "Make this suggestion for the West Continent?"
Although it was only a suggestion from Ji Gongnie and not an order, those who were loyal to Ji Gongnie instantly had a good impression of the Daikon State.
Even Zhong Shan, who was in front of Sacred Fire Metropolis, was shocked! What did Ji Gongnie mean? Make this suggestion?
"I will go with Bao Si. May the West Continent be at peace forever!"
This was Ji Gongnie's last sentence to the people of the West Continent.
"Hong ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~!"
The eighteen clawed Providence Death Dragon above the Li Fire Sacred Palace completely dissipated. The providence above the countless cities also disappeared completely. The strand of fate that was connected to the hearts of the people was also broken.
"Heavenly Emperor ~!"
The West Continent mourned Ji Gongnie, but his cries were different from before. At this moment, he knew why he was crying!
In front of Sacred Fire Metropolis.
Ji Gongnie hugged Bao Si's clothes again.
"Bao Si, no one will disturb us anymore. We can continue to watch the beacons!" Ji Gongnie looked at 'Bao Si' in his arms with an infatuated expression.
The beacons soared into the sky and were extremely beautiful.
"108 beacons connecting heaven and earth. It's the most beautiful scene in the world! Isn't it beautiful? "Ji Gongnie asked 'Bao Si' in his arms gently.
At the same time, Ji Gongnie's body slowly faded.
"Tell me, isn't it beautiful?" Ji Gongnie asked again.
"Husband, it's so beautiful. I like it!"
The last sentence was said by Ji Gongnie, but it was in Bao Si's tone. Using Bao Si's tone to reply to him?
Zhong Shan looked at Ji Gongnie in a daze. Although Ji Gongnie was dead, his spirit had assimilated with Bao Si's. At this moment, he couldn't tell if he was Ji Gongnie or Bao Si. Perhaps he was both Ji Gongnie and Bao Si!
Seeing Ji Gongnie disappear, even with Zhong Shan's tenacity, he couldn't help but feel a lump in his throat.
"Husband, it's so beautiful. I like it!" Ji Gongnie's final words also touched everyone's tears and disappeared along with Ji Gongnie. The ghosts in Sacred Fire Metropolis even forgot their own misery and cried for the lovers of heaven and earth.
