Chapter 409: Complete disappointment and breakup!
On the bone altar, Jiang Siming and the Headless Knight also felt the powerful energy fluctuations rapidly attacking them.
However, no one dared to act rashly at this moment. The momentum of the two had reached its peak. Whoever revealed a flaw first would lose the initiative!
No one could possibly imagine how terrifying it was to have a hundred level nine fixed-type soul guides generate energy! Because no one had ever endured the bombardment of a hundred level nine fixed-type soul guides!
"Leading the Qi of Yuan, holding the spirit and keeping the unity!"
Jiang Siming gently swung the Juexian Sword, which slowly slid out a strange arc!
"Innate Sword!"
"The Great Death Gun!"
The headless knight was equally unwilling to be outdone, and his spear instantly expanded by hundreds of feet, reaching the sky and the earth! He rushed towards Jiang Siming fiercely.
The two of them had locked onto each other, completely ignoring the threat of the upcoming hundred level nine fixed-type soul guides.
In an instant, the wind surged, and the terrifying sword light and the dark knight's spear collided with each other! The wind that had just risen was forcibly stopped.
A strange spatial ripple slowly spread out!
……
At this moment, outside Mingdu, Huo Yuhao and others who had escaped with great difficulty had no time to look back to see what had happened!
A terrifying energy aftermath blew away the unsuspecting people!
The huge energy fluctuations produced by one hundred level nine fixed-type soul guides dispersed the dark clouds that had gathered in the sky for a long time.
However, countless dust filled the air, making the Emperor of Heaven turbid again!
When the aftermath gradually subsided, Jian Tongming and the other three stood up with some difficulty. Although the huge energy wave was far away from them, it still caused them considerable damage. It was a blessing in disguise that they did not faint. Otherwise, it would be really difficult to deal with a crisis in this situation.
"It seems that the connection with the Gate of the Dead has been reestablished with me! I can close the Gate of the Dead now!"
Even though it was impossible to see the situation of the Undead Gate in the distance at this moment due to the dust all over the sky, the vague connection told Huo Yuhao clearly that the horrific explosion just now either completely killed the existence on the bone altar, or seriously injured him.
Huo Yuhao no longer hesitated at this moment. His blue eyes instantly turned gray, and his body was filled with death. The only two hands that could still move kept waving out strange runes, and he chanted in a low voice.
The other three people who had just reacted also realized what Huo Yuhao was doing at the moment and hurriedly guarded Huo Yuhao.
With dust all over the sky, it was impossible to tell from which direction the danger would come. The atmosphere was extremely tense for a moment.
Above the dust in the sky, the Gate of the Dead in the clear sky seemed to be eroded under the cover of the sunlight, and wisps of white mist emerged!
At this moment, there was no bone altar in the sky except for the lonely Gate of the Dead. Jiang Siming and the Headless Knight also disappeared without a trace!
Suddenly, the Gate of the Dead trembled, and a terrifying suction force suddenly burst out from the dark gate and quickly turned into a vortex.
The dust all over the earth was swept up into the sky by this terrible attraction, and poured into the Gate of the Dead like an inverted tornado.
Dust quickly rose up in the sky, and countless white skeletons were also sucked into the Gate of the Dead along with the yellow smoke.
Today, in just a few breaths, the world regained clarity again. At this moment, all that was left of Mingdu was the ruined palace floating in the air wrapped in a broken ball of light, and a terrifying giant pit whose depth and width were unknown!
As the Gate of the Dead closed, it gradually faded and disappeared completely in the air.
All the people who were still alive... or should I say the only remaining people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, this disaster was finally and completely over!
However, before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, a crisp "click" suddenly echoed in the ears of all those who were still alive!
The huge pit in front of us was filled with water from nowhere at a speed visible to the naked eye. What was strange was that the rapidly rising water level was like a smooth mirror, with not a single ripple on the surface.
The next moment, a strong red light suddenly erupted from the west side of the giant pit, instantly covering an area of hundreds of kilometers.
Huo Yuhao and the others looked at this sudden strange phenomenon and couldn't help but feel a little panicked again.
How could this happen? One problem was solved before another one arose. We had just solved the disaster of the Gate of the Dead, but what was going on with this sudden outbreak of strange phenomena?
……
"What the hell is going on? The sky is full of red light!"
Xu Tianran stared at the red divine light all over the sky through the already tattered protective light ball and was stunned.
This short period of less than a day can be said to have refreshed Xu Tianran's three perspectives! It made him realize that there are still many things on this continent that he doesn't know about, and existences that he can't control!
Fortunately, the sudden red light did not seem to be harmful, but rather seemed like a kind of auspicious light.
"No matter what? The crisis has been resolved, Your Highness! It's time to ascend the throne. The empire needs your responsibility!" The old man on the side knelt on one knee and said sincerely and respectfully.
Although the Sun and Moon Emperor is still alive, he is seriously ill and unconscious. The one who actually holds power has always been Xu Tianran. Now that such a disaster has occurred, such a big change has occurred in Mingdu, and it can be said that the losses are heavy.
As for the hostility that they will face next, almost all the forces on the mainland, only Xu Tianran can take on the responsibility at this moment.
Although this disaster is directly related to Xu Tianran, now is not the time to pursue who is right or wrong. Everything has already happened and there is no room for turning back. We can only try our best to avoid it or reduce the losses.
"Ascend the throne? Whose king will I be? The capital of the empire has become like this now, where is the prestige of the royal family? I am a sinner!" Xu Tianran said with great sorrow, but his eyes would occasionally glance at the old man beside him.
“Your Highness! Since ancient times, even saints are not without faults. What the empire needs is an emperor, a king who rules the world, not a saint!” The old man bowed down and placed his head heavily on the ground.
"I, Xu Tianran, am guilty. From now on, I will sacrifice my life for the empire! Please also work hard and help me to expand the empire!" Xu Tianran, sitting in a wheelchair, leaned forward slightly and slowly supported the old man.
"Old Master, you should do your best!"
The old man wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead as he spoke. He had lived to such an old age, but he didn't expect to end up with his head and body separated.
Xu Tianran did not inform the officials living in Mingdu before carrying out the operation. How cruel was he! He could not even care about the lives of his own ministers!
The purpose of Xu Tianran doing this was to avoid being bothered by these civil officials who were only good at writing.
Now that the operation had failed and had caused such a disaster, it didn't matter whether it was Xu Tianran's fault or not. There must be many people hiding in the dark who didn't obey him. They were the treasures of the empire, the real wealth. There would definitely be some rumors among the soul masters, and a big purge was inevitable.
Whether it is the ministers and soul masters who only exist in the palace, the guardian soul masters outside the city, or the generals and commanders who are far away in the border and guarding various defense lines, they will be involved in this purge as the news here spreads.
The old man expressed his attitude at this moment, which can be said to be the best opportunity, before Xu Tianran had the intention to kill him, or before he was ready to kill him.
……
Outside the ruins of Mingdu.
Xuan Lao and Huo Yuhao finally met again. Everyone was covered in dirt and some were even injured. But fortunately, everyone came back alive!
Beibei even found Tang Ya, who was bewitched by the evil spirit master, from the ruins. Because Jiang Siming changed a series of plots, Tang Ya's appearance was delayed again and again.
However, by chance, this disaster brought Beibei and Tang Ya together again. However, Tang Ya, who was bewitched by the evil spirit master and had a very bad mental state, suffered a severe brain injury and fell into a deep coma.
“Big Brother! What happened to Sister Yaya?” Huo Yuhao looked at Tang Ya who had fainted in Beibei’s arms and was a little excited at first, then he spoke worriedly.
"Yaya's breathing is still stable, she shouldn't be in any serious condition." Beibei looked at the person in his arms tenderly. The Lord of Thunder and Lightning who could transform into a tyrant of thunder at any time completely fell into the hands of his lover.
Several people nearby looked at Bei Bei and patted his shoulders to comfort him.
“Huo Yuhao! Do you know how much trouble you have caused?” Xuan Zi interrupted the warm reunion moment without any hesitation.
“I…” The smile on Huo Yuhao’s face disappeared instantly, and he didn’t know what to say for a moment.
"Master Xuan, Yuhao didn't do it on purpose!" Xu Sanshi on the side couldn't help but plead.
"Shut up! Am I giving you too much face?" Xuan Zi was so angry at this moment. Huo Yuhao opened the Gate of the Undead and caused this irreversible disaster. How many lives were lost in this disaster?
"Master Xuan, that strange door may not have been opened by Yuhao! How can you trust Jiang Siming's one-sided words! Huo Yuhao, quickly tell Master Xuan that you didn't open that door at all!" Xu Sanshi desperately winked at Huo Yuhao. He didn't understand why the elders who believed in them and cared about them would be so partial to Jiang Siming. Perhaps from the conflict of Ma Xiaotao's incident, Xu Sanshi was deeply jealous of Jiang Siming.
Everyone soon turned their eyes to Xu Sanshi, whose temperament had changed drastically.
“Brother Sanshi, it was indeed me who opened the Gate of the Dead! If it weren’t for Brother Sima, I’m afraid I would never be able to make up for this mistake!” Huo Yuhao lowered his head, full of self-blame.
Everyone was silent. In fact, in their hearts, they also hoped that Jiang Siming was lying. After all, emotionally, they were more inclined to Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao was destined to pay a heavy price for this mistake. Shrek Academy never favored its students, and after returning this time, Huo Yuhao would definitely be severely punished!
“I see! So this is Shrek Academy, nothing special!”
Song Xun'er on the side curled her lips in disdain. In her eyes, the so-called geniuses of Shrek Academy were just a group of selfish villains! They were still shirking responsibility when things had reached this point. What was even more terrifying was that the person they wanted to shirk responsibility was actually the benefactor who saved their lives! What an ironic fact!
"What did you say!" Xiaoxiao glared at Song Xun'er with some injustice.
"Is there a problem? The master is now dead or alive, and what are you doing here? Senior Yuhao, I worked so hard to call you out, have you ever said thank you to me? The master fought so hard to give you a chance to make up for his mistakes, have you ever said thank you?"
Jian Tongming's sharp eyes are like a sharp cold sword piercing everyone's heart!
"And you guys! Do you think that everything the master has done is just what he should do? How many times has he saved you? Why should he save you? When have you ever been grateful?" Jian Tongming said almost gritting his teeth.
The scariest thing about human hearts is the biased emotions in their hearts. When a person takes others' kindness for granted, no one will care whether the person who pays is working hard.
Both Huo Yuhao and the others as well as Xuan Zi and the other three elders were silent.
Huo Yuhao and Xuan Zi knew Jiang Siming's identity. Although they always respected Jiang Siming as their ancestor, they had never considered whether everything Jiang Siming did was what he should do.
As for the others, even they themselves feel a little disgusting! However, no one will stand up and admit their mistakes, which is the saddest thing!
Emotions are the advantage that makes humans the most intelligent creatures in the world, but they are also the reason for human depravity.
"Goodbye! From today on, I will only be Master's apprentice, and not a disciple of Shrek Academy! The younger generation of the academy is now led by this bunch of people. I don't see any hope at all! So selfish!"
"I will find my master. If he is gone, I will take revenge on you! Senior Yuhao, this is the last time I will call you!" Jian Tongming's eyes were filled with coldness, which even pierced through Huo Yuhao's spiritual eyes.
Jian Tongming turned around and pulled Song Xun'er behind him. He decided to go find his own business alone. The reason he didn't leave before was because Huo Yuhao was the only hope to close the Gate of the Dead. He also had some respect for this senior and wanted to protect his safety.
But now it seems that the prejudice of these ruthless guys against Jiang Siming has not disappeared. Jian Tongming is completely disappointed! He cannot break with these people on behalf of Jiang Siming, but he can break with them completely on his own behalf!
Quiet!
Terrible quiet!
No one wanted to dissuade Jian Tongming from leaving, even though they all knew they were wrong.
It is even said that Elder Song and Elder Zhuang behind Xuan Zi looked at each other and secretly gathered the soul power in their hands.
"Enough! Are you two old guys as stupid as these kids?" Xuan Zi noticed the little movements of the two men and stomped his feet hard, shaking off the soul power in their hands.
Old Song and Old Zhuang's cheeks turned slightly red as Xuanzi noticed their small movements.
"It seems that the college really needs to improve in ideological education! Even you are so stupid!" Xuan Zi was completely disappointed.
He did not dissuade Jian Tongming from leaving because he could not find a reason. He also had to bring these children back to the academy safely, so it was impossible for him to accompany Jian Tongming to find Jiang Siming.
However, Xuanzi had already developed deep doubts about the academy.
Does Shrek Academy always represent justice? Don’t the people of Shrek Academy have an evil side?
When Elder Lin opposed Xuanzi with a kind of cabinet elder, his eyes were full of ambitions! Although peace has been restored again now, it is only because the ambitions have been realized!
“Ancestor! Is the current Shrek Academy still worthy of your protection?”
