"Sly Hand, Sly Hand, is that you?"
A sound of iron hooves trampling over the ground was heard. A man in golden armor with an imposing appearance dismounted from his horse and walked over with large strides.
Long Mo, the crown prince of the Divine Dragon Sacred Dynasty, the next emperor of the Divine Dragon Sacred Dynasty! However, that was not important. What was important was that he was Long Mo's friend and his brother-in-law!
"It's me. I'm back!"
Chu Rui smiled. Returning to his hometown and meeting an old friend naturally stirred up a lot of emotions.
"Hahaha, let's go and have a drink!"
Long Mo laughed heartily and gave Chu Rui a bear hug without another word.
"Okay!"
Chu Rui could not help but grin.
"Your Highness!"
Seeing Chu Rui and Long Mo walk away with their arms around each other's shoulders like playboys going to a brothel to play with girls, a bearded man could not help but call out.
"I'll leave the patrol to you. I have something important to do today!"
Long Mo did not even turn his head. He waved his hand and dismissed the group of imperial guards.
"I say, you've been galloping around the city on horseback, fully armed. What's going on? Aren't you afraid of scaring others? "
In the restaurant, Chu Rui went straight to his private room. Although Qin Yue was no longer in charge, this was his property after all, so he naturally had the highest authority. Chu Rui poured a glass of wine for Long Mo, and the two of them drank three glasses without saying a word before Chu Rui asked.
"Could it be that the demons have risen from the ashes and are here to cause trouble again?"
"That's not it. Ever since you purged those guys last time, the remaining stragglers are no longer a threat. They've basically been wiped out. However, ever since the Goddess of Tianyun passed down her oracle, no matter how hard the high priest tried, he could not contact her. Over the past few days, natural disasters have been erupting continuously. Many restless forces have been stirring up trouble, inciting refugees who had been harmed by natural disasters to cause trouble, causing the entire sacred dynasty to be in chaos. Some demons that were sealed back then also took the opportunity to break the seal and wreak havoc in the world. Sigh, the current situation is really chaotic! "
Long Mo kept pouring and drinking by himself with a bitter expression. As the Crown Prince of the Divine Dragon Sacred Dynasty, he must have been under a lot of pressure during this turbulent period.
"Don't worry, everything will be over soon. Soon, the sky will clear up!"
It was Chu Rui's first time seeing Long Mo like this. In the past, Long Mo was open-minded by nature. Although he was the Crown Prince of the Divine Dragon Sacred Dynasty and shouldered a lot of responsibilities, his character was still heroic. But now, he was deeply worried, just like those scholars who were worried about the country and the people. At the end of the day, he was still the Crown Prince of the Divine Dragon Holy Dynasty. Now, the entire Heavenly Fate Continent was suffering. The calamity of the Demon Race had just been quelled by Chu Rui not long ago, but the Final Tribulation had led to continuous natural disasters, and thus, man-made disasters occurred one after another. The once impregnable Divine Dragon Sacred Dynasty was now in a precarious situation, and the people were in dire straits. If he was still the same as before, Chu Rui would have to wonder if he was really ambitious and just willing to be a simple rich second generation.
"With you here, I can rest assured that this day will come soon!"
Long Mo nodded, picked up the big bowl and clinked it with Chu Rui, then drank the wine in one gulp. Chu Rui had created too many miracles. When they first met, Chu Rui had been so weak, but he had seen the clues of the Heaven on Earth and Hell on Earth map. Long Mo knew that he was not a fish in a pond. He had been walking all the way until today. Chu Rui was already an existence on par with the ultimate faith of the Heavenly Fate Continent — the Goddess of Heavenly Fate. He believed in his words.
"I can't stay here for long. Now, there are a lot of things waiting for me to do every day. When all the rain is over, I'll come and have a good drink with you. I won't rest until I'm drunk! "
After drinking the jar of Hundred Flowers Jade Dew Wine on the table, Long Mo's handsome face was slightly red. He drank half a cup of the sobering tea served by the maid, then got up and left.
"Now, the Divine Dragon Sacred Dynasty is in turmoil. Countless people die every day. Father is mentally and physically exhausted. If I hadn't shared most of the country's affairs, Father might have collapsed from exhaustion. If possible, let Xia 'er come back to see Father. Father misses her very much. "
When he was at the door, Long Mo turned back and said something to Chu Rui before pushing the door open and leaving. This was not an unreasonable request. Long Xia was his younger sister and they had been on very good terms since they were young. They did not scheme against each other or even turn against each other and fight to the death because of their relationship with the royal family. The Divine Dragon Emperor also doted on Long Xia very much. Logically speaking, it was normal for his brother-in-law to ask him to let his sister go back to see his father. There was no need to say such things and use such a tone.
However, Long Mo knew very well that Long Xia's departure was not that simple. When Long Xia was in Emperor Sky City, he had received countless news of people trying to harm his sister and her sisters. A tall tree attracts the wind. Now, Chu Rui was not the same as before. There were too many people who wanted to deal with him. However, he was too strong. Going against him head-on would only be courting death. Therefore, they could only settle for the next best thing. Using the people around him to threaten him was the best choice.
Chu Rui's expression turned cold on the spot!
Long Xia was with Qin Yue and the others! In the Tomb of the Gods Realm, the Heavenly Demon had attacked and protected Tianyun City, causing him to jump into a trap. In that battle, he had suffered a crushing defeat. If not for the Heavenly Demon holding back and using his life in exchange for the Six Realms Wheel, they would have been controlled or killed by the Heavenly Demon. Even though Tianyun had taken them away, he did not know where they had gone.
He, who was bound to die, did not die. By a freak combination of factors, he had returned to Tianyun Continent and obtained the power of the Netherworld. This time span was too long. Too many things could have happened in such a long time. Now, he only hoped that the irreversible things that he would regret for the rest of his life would not happen.
He clutched the Heart of Chaos tightly in his chest. It was originally flowing with light, but now it was dim. It did not look like a divine stone necklace that was even more dazzling than the Life Pearl, but a rather exquisite and useless chain.
There was no more God-cleansing Liquid. Washing out the Boots of Chaos, the Book of Death, and the Phoenix Tail Feather was already the limit. Chu Rui did not know how to remove the seals on the remaining parts of the Chaos Set.
The Chaos Set only had one owner. Only when the owner died would it become an ownerless item. Chu Rui was dead, so they were all sealed and became ownerless items. However, he did not die. His Nirvana was successful. Therefore, he fell into an extremely awkward situation.
