When the Murong Lian heard this, he did not take it to heart. Instead, he laughed mockingly, "If Monarch really has this ability, why did you go to Great Lake City to take back the remnant soul of the Blood Scourge?"
"Furthermore, Burning Country has already bred a new Blood Scourge. It only lacks a soul and a source of power. If Monarch tries to open the soul box now, you will not get anything. It will only increase the power of the Blood Scourge and allow it to be reborn. "
After a pause, the Murong Lian said, "You are not that stupid to make a wedding dress for someone else."
"That depends on who I am making the wedding dress for." Murong Chen's eyes were like two pools of poisonous water. He said fiercely, "Murong Lian, you know me. Compared to external enemies, I hate internal enemies more."
The Murong Lian's expression changed slightly. That's right. Their Monarch had lived in the shadow of a curse since he was young. He was wary of the people around him. His fangs were stained with the blood of his brothers. He was so crazy that he wanted to use the Black Demon Curse to control the officials and make them listen to his orders.
However, he did not think that Murong Chen would not care about the safety of the entire Chong Hua. After all, without the skin, where would the hair go? However, when he looked at Murong Chen's expression, he saw that hatred had overtaken his rationality. He looked like he wanted to fight to the death. He could not help but be shocked.
However, the Murong Lian's expression did not change. He said coldly, "What do you want?"
"I should be the one asking you this." Murong Chen said hatefully, "You have hidden your ambition for so many years. Isn't it for today's change? You can just sit back and reap the benefits." He waved his sleeve and pointed at the throne, "Replace my position and become the ruler of Chong Hua?"
Murong Lian said indifferently, "I have not thought about it. I feel that your position is very stupid. It is like a shrine. I don't want to be a statue at all. "
Murong Chen said, "Who would believe that?"
As he said that, he suddenly raised his hand and clenched it. He said sternly, "Seal, open —!"
Following his shout, a rumbling sound suddenly came from outside the hall. The officials looked over in horror. Through the broken walls and open windows, they could see the tallest building in the Chong Hua Palace — the Golden Stage. Intense golden light was exploding there, and an incomparably large sealing formation appeared at the top. It was in the shape of a pentagram, and it was spinning continuously as spiritual flames surged.
In the blink of an eye, the wind and clouds rose in all directions, destroying everything in their path. The grass and trees around the golden platform were blown away by the strong wind. The platform that represented the infinite glory of the minister of Chong Hua, the Wenxian Land that could be seen by the entire Imperial Capital, was shrouded in a cloud of dust and sand. As the golden light grew brighter, the seal opened. A palm-sized box that was emitting a dazzling radiance flew up from the crack in the mountain and hung high in the sky.
Meng Ze murmured, "This is … the soul box that Marshal Gu forged with a piece of his own soul …"
She had just finished speaking when she heard a muffled groan behind her, followed by the sound of someone kneeling on the ground. Meng Ze turned around and found that Gu Mang had already fallen to the ground and was spitting out blood.
Mo Xi immediately supported him and asked anxiously, "What happened to you?"
"I …" Gu Mang seemed to want to say something, but when he looked up at the soul box in the sky, he coughed out another mouthful of blood. He was powerless to say anything and fainted in Mo Xi's arms.
"Gu Mang!"
Meng Ze was a medicine cultivator. She said, "Marshal Gu was affected by the removal of the seal on the soul box. This box is one of the two souls that he is missing. He can't bear its soul power for a while, but it won't be a problem."
After a pause, she opened her eyes wide and said, "Ah! If we can take the soul box and refine it into his body, then his soul will more or less recover a bit — "
Before she could finish, she heard Jun Shang say coldly, "Don't even think about it."
Murong Lian said sternly, "Murong Chen. I have no intention of seizing your position. You better wake up and don't do anything crazy! "
Murong Chen snorted and gritted his teeth, "You really don't need to seize my position. If I feel that I can still sit on the throne after today, then I'm afraid I've lived for so many years in vain."
"…"
"I'm very clear about the fate of the Emperor. Instead of seeing you step on my shoulders to reach the top, why don't I personally destroy these things? "
Murong Lian said angrily, "Murong Chen! Chong Hua is the mother country. You actually dare to let the Burning Country obtain the power of the Blood Sucking Scourge because of your own worries? You know very well what the consequences of the Blood Sucking Scourge's reappearance will be! Do you want the entire Chong Hua and even Jiuzhou to be buried for you?! "
Unexpectedly, Murong Chen laughed evilly and said, "Why not?"
“！”
Anger surged up like a tide. Even if some of the people present were usually lazy, when they heard his cold words, they couldn't help but feel their blood boil. For a moment, there were endless voices of reprimand.
"Murong Chen! You're a beast in human face! "
"You still dare to say that others are selfish. I'm afraid the most selfish and cold-blooded madman in the world is you!"
"Harsh and ungrateful! Wrong and loyal! "
"You can't be the Emperor, so you want to lead the wolf into the house and let the people of Jiuzhou suffer?!"
Murong Chen suddenly laughed, "Hahaha — isn't it like this?! The entire Jiuzhou, the entire Chong Hua, if I don't become the Emperor, what does it have to do with me?! "
"You —!"
"When I was in the Eastern Palace and my future was uncertain, when I was deposed by my father and my status was shaken, when I had yet to ascend the throne, even after I became the Emperor, was there anyone who sincerely stood by my side, thought for me, plotted for me, had feelings for me, and worried for me?!!!" You have always regarded me as a rival for the throne, as the Crown Prince, as the Emperor. Who has seen me as Murong Chen? Who cares about what I think?! "
"Even my father, when he heard that I was sick, wanted to abolish my position as the Crown Prince. Did he ever think about the consequences of a abolished Crown Prince after his death?!"
Murong Lian suddenly said, "Do you think he didn't think about it? He once secretly summoned me in front of my sickbed and told me that if he made me the Crown Prince, I must treat you well. Because your cold disease was caused by him, he felt guilty in his heart! "
Murong Chen was startled, and his scarlet eyes widened ferociously.
Then he said angrily, "He's just pretending! He even told you about my cold disease, what is he regretting? What is he guilty of?! " He waved his sleeves and said, "Isolated in the world, I have only been supported by the throne. The Chong Hua in the Nine Provinces is only related to the Emperor, and has nothing to do with Murong Chen!"
"If I were the Emperor, I would naturally be worried for the Chong Hua. But today, you forced me to abdicate, I will be a slave, and I will only be Murong Chen. And Murong Chen does not owe anyone in this world friendship! " He narrowed his eyes viciously, and his words were ground into powder between his lips and teeth. "You are right, I am happy for myself. I would rather fight to the death, harm others without benefiting myself, lead the wolf into the house, and burn the country with benefits — I will not let you be free! "
"Murong Chen, you are crazy!"
Murong Chen sneered and said, "Look clearly, I will only be the Emperor in this life, and not a slave!"
After he finished this sentence, he clasped his hands in front of his chest, and his sleeves suddenly fluttered.
Murong Chen's ten fingers formed a seal, and he raised his eyebrows and shouted, "Flying Phoenix, unseal!!!"
The sound of a phoenix's cry seemed to come from the heart of the earth, and Murong Chen's body ignited with the light of a raging fire. He jumped up from the broken roof into the sky, and the flames wrapped around him. Just like when Gu Mang's demonic energy went berserk and unsealed the demon wolf's blood, Murong Chen's body was surrounded by the light of the phoenix, and the spiritual flow was boiling.
Meng Ze was shocked and said, "He … why does he have the energy of a demonic beast in his body?"
Mo Xi shook his head, "He has the energy of a celestial beast."
"What is that?"
"The Old Lord once wanted to cultivate a celestial beast, but the beast's spirit lost control, and through the Old Lord, it eroded him. It gave him this kind of power. "
After Mo Xi finished speaking, he formed a seal and ordered, "Tuntian, stop him!"
The giant whale's spiritual body howled in the sky, and it raised its tail fin and flew towards Murong Chen. Murong Chen was not easy to deal with. He was filled with hatred, and he only wanted to destroy the entire situation, so that he would not become a slave. He shouted to the remnant soul of Qing Chen, who was also hovering in the night sky, "Go and fight!"
Qing Chen received the order, and with a flap of his wings, he charged towards Tuntian.
The two huge creatures fought in the sky, and the sound of their roars could almost penetrate people's hearts and lungs. The stars in the sky had already lost their color, and the spiritual flow that splashed out when they fought was more dazzling than the day. The spiritual power that exploded at the point of collision was like a flash of fireworks, exploding under the sky and scattering into countless fragments.
But this time, no one dodged. Whether it was because of anger, enlightenment, or because they had no other choice, the cultivators in the main hall, regardless of whether their spiritual power was low, or whether they were flies and dogs on a daily basis, all of them cast their spells and leaped out of the throne room. Some of them helped Tuntian and Qing Chen fight, some of them shouted angrily and chased after Murong Chen in the direction of the Golden Terrace, and some of them went to all the troops in Chong Hua to awaken the city from its slumber.
Lord Changfeng was so angry that he could not stop trembling. He sent out telepathic orders, and the truth flew to every corner of Chong Hua's streets.
A young master from the Military Council had lost his father in the previous battle. At this moment, tears still hung from his face. He was arranging for the Featherwood Academy to send a message: "Mobilize all the cultivators under our command. Protect the nation and defend ourselves!"
The elder of Shennongtai was the lord's lackey. He saw that the situation was not good and wanted to sneak away, but a bayonet was pressed against his waist. He turned around and met Zhou He's cold eyes.
The elder hurriedly said, "Brother Zhou, it's, it's me. You know, we were both forced by the lord. I helped him harm the Lord Wangshu, and you, you helped him refine the Blood Demon."
Zhou He grabbed him by the neck and whispered in his ear, "I didn't put all my effort into refining Pure Dust. Otherwise, do you think it only has this much power as the soul of Bloodsucking Scourge? I'm not the lord's man at all. "
"Brother Zhou …"
But it was useless to say anything more. Zhou He had already stabbed the bayonet into the elder's lung.
His fingers were stained with blood.
Zhou He licked his lips and enjoyed the smell of blood for a while. Then, he suddenly pulled out the bayonet. The elder of Shennongtai struggled and swayed. His eyes were wide open, and he fell to the ground with a plop. Zhou He raised his bayonet, stretched out his soft tongue, and licked the tip of the bayonet …
In an instant, the battle broke out. The flames of the spells were like lava erupting, quickly flowing from the inside of the palace to the entire Chong Hua.
Mo Xi found the Murong Lian in the midst of the chaos and handed the unconscious Gu Mang to him, "Take care of him. I'll go and stop Murong Chen."
The Murong Lian looked at Gu Mang with disdain and said, "I don't care about his life or death at all. As a member of the Murong family, he ended up in such a miserable state."
But even so, he still took Gu Mang.
Meng Ze glanced at the Murong Chen who was fighting with several nobles in the air. After the Murong Chen was unsealed, his strength was very strong. So many people besieged him, but they only managed to slow him down a little. With a strike of the Phoenix Phantom, the practitioners who were too close to him vomited blood and fell from the sky. Meng Ze saw this and said worriedly, "I'm afraid we can't catch up to him. He's going to go to the Golden Stage and perish together with us. He's going to use his life to destroy the soul box …"
Mo Xi also knew that time was tight. He didn't say anything more to them. He summoned his men and jumped onto the ridge, quickly chasing after Murong Chen.
