In such a tense moment, one should talk about what to do next and where to go. Even if one knew that he was going to die and wanted to leave some powerful last words, one should often start with a review of one's life – just like what happened on that night when Chen Chang Sheng was trapped in the Tong Palace by Mo Yu and encountered the Black Dragon.
Therefore, Xu You Rong didn't understand what was wrong with Chen Chang Sheng.
If it was an ordinary girl, she might have been annoyed and turned her face away with a cold snort.
But she was not an ordinary girl. She was a girl who, despite being a Holy Maiden in waiting, still had to go to town every ten-odd days to play mahjong. Moreover, she was not afraid of killing a lecherous gambling den owner with a single strike of her sword. Moreover, there was nothing to do in the clouds right now. Although the Angel of Sacred Light was terrifying, it had yet to catch up.
"I'll fly you over."
"When you returned to the capital last time, you didn't bring Shuang 'er along to try?"
"I'm not a Scarlet Goose or a flying chariot."
Xu You Rong's tone was still very calm, but Chen Chang Sheng could tell that she was starting to get impatient.
He explained, "I just think you're very skilled."
Xu Yourong said, "I've said it before, I'll bring you flying."
Of course Chen Chang Sheng wouldn't forget.
Back in the Garden of Zhou, he had been chased by Nanke's Twin Wings. He had traveled from the bottom of the lake all the way to the pond on the outskirts of the Plains of the Unsetting Sun. When he broke through the water, he was already unconscious.
She was the one who told him what happened after that.
At that time, she had jumped down from Sunset Valley, her divine soul had awakened once more, and a pair of phoenix wings had sprouted from her back.
Was that how she grabbed him and flew away?
Chen Chang Sheng still felt a little awkward.
Any man who was held in the hands of his fiancée would probably feel the same way.
Moreover, she had only grabbed it once. Why was her technique so proficient? Could it be that she practiced often? What was she practicing for?
Xu Yourong looked at his expression and knew what he was thinking. She smiled and said, "Later on, when you were unconscious, I carried you many times."
This referred to what would happen after entering the Plains of the Unsetting Sun.
At that time, she was heavily injured and Chen Chang Sheng was unconscious. If she wanted to take him away, what else could she do besides carrying him?
Although he was carrying it and not flying it, it was still the same thing.
Chen Chang Sheng also understood and said regretfully, "I always carried you on my back."
Xu Yourong said, "You are taller than me, how can I carry you?"
Chen Chang Sheng thought it was reasonable, but then he felt it was unreasonable.
I'm taller than you, so it's not convenient for me to carry you. Does that mean it's convenient for me to carry you?
He thought about it for a long time and felt that he could only hold his belt.
This scene was rather unbearable, so he fell silent.
Xu Yourong asked, "Your last resort is the Heavenly Tome Monoliths?"
Chen Chang Sheng said, "No, it's you."
When he gave this answer, there was no hesitation. He did not even think about it.
These were the most romantic words. He was acting like a playboy.
Xu Yourong knew he wasn't.
His answer was not words of love, but the truth.
But she still blushed.
Because her last resort was also him.
This was not the truth of love, this feeling of being a match made in heaven, it really made people feel a little shy.
She suddenly thought of a question and asked, "You knew I was coming?"
There were many details about the battle in the courtyard.
From Chen Chang Sheng's response, he should have been waiting for her to attack.
"On the day Chusu was driven away, a few things happened and my mind was in a mess, so I didn't think."
Chen Chang Sheng continued, "Later on, when I was burying Senior Bie Yanghong and Wuqiong Bi, I saw the traces of fire in the rocks and guessed that you were coming."
Xu Yourong asked, "So you were waiting for me to appear?"
Chen Chang Sheng replied, "Since you were in White Emperor City, when I couldn't hold on any longer, you would naturally appear."
This was the truth, not words of love.
Xu Yourong's face grew even redder.
In order to conceal her embarrassment and the heat on her cheeks that not even the cold winds could cool, she decided to criticize him.
"Then you should have told me your plan first. It wouldn't have been so dangerous."
Chen Chang Sheng knew that in terms of calculation, he was far inferior to her. If she had been the one to carry out today's plan, the outcome would have been even better.
At least they would not have been forced to leave the ground and be pursued by that terrifying Angel of Sacred Light.
The problem was, since she did not want to appear for some reason, how could he tell her his plan?
Could it be like that year, when he and Tang Thirty-Six stood under the great banyan tree and shouted to the entire capital?
Xu Yourong replied, "It doesn't matter if I know or not, but there's someone who should know ahead of time."
Chen Chang Sheng did not understand who she was speaking of.
In this complex and incomparably dangerous situation, was there anyone more important than her, more worthy of trust?
Just when he was prepared to ask his question, the surrounding environment suddenly changed.
The clouds in front of them suddenly became extremely viscous, almost like quicksand.
The speed of the two became much slower.
A hint of wariness appeared in Xu Yourong's eyes.
Without hesitation, Chen Chang Sheng waved his left hand. Countless swords flew through the air, slashing at the increasingly viscous clouds.
Sword intents incessantly cut at the clouds, cleaving out a relatively weak path in front of the pair.
Xu Yourong also moved. The true flames of the Heavenly Phoenix emerged from her pure white wings, burning the clouds and making them sizzle.
With a whoosh, they charged through the thick clouds.
The clouds broke.
The sun rose.
The sun in the sky did not seem to have any color like it did from the ground. It was pure white, exuding boundless light.
The clouds were also white, reflecting the white light. Even the blue sky was dyed white.
As far as the eye could see, all the pair could see was a vast expanse of whiteness.
The blazing light was very dazzling.
Several dozen li to the west was a very small black dot.
In their eyes, the small black dot quickly enlarged and turned into a figure.
Dressed in a deep blue palace gown, Madam Mu stood on the clouds, her hands held behind her.
Xu Yourong fell silent as she gazed at this graceful and graceful Saint.
She had not expected that while the White Emperor had returned from the Starfall Mountains, Madam Mu would come here.
Moreover, Madam Mu made her recall the woman she most admired in her life.
She clearly knew that the situation was still under her control, but she still felt an intense unease.
Chen Chang Sheng did not know everything, but he was actually somewhat calmer.
"She is not her."
Only Xu Yourong understood what he meant.
Chen Chang Sheng was not intimidated by Madam Mu's bearing.
He did not feel that Madam Mu was very similar to the Tianhai Divine Empress.
The current world's evaluation of the Tianhai Divine Empress could be said to be mixed, and it was probably the same in the future history books.
But there was one thing that no one dared to deny, not even his teacher Shang Xingzhou.
She had a broad mind.
This was not about being benevolent, not about being merciful, but about having a broad mind.
The Tianhai Divine Empress had the world in her heart.
Whether she wanted the world to prosper or perish, her gaze had always been on the world.
Madam Mu was of noble birth and possessed an extremely high status. She dared to ally with the demons, even collude with the other continents, but her gaze had always been on the present.
But this did not mean that she was not strong enough.
At the very least, Chen Chang Sheng and Xu Yourong were no match for her.
Even when the two swords joined together, it was the same.
The clouds moved again, a bulge appearing and then bursting open like a flower.
The Angel broke through the clouds. (To be continued.)
