Chapter 179: Jinya Arrives
Lin Zhao walked out of the Youlan Palace with the scroll given to her by Emperor and Empress Youlan. After learning about the affairs of Emperor and Empress Youlan, Emperor Youlan, and the Imperial Master, Lin Zhao couldn't help but sigh.
"I thought... it was just a simple emotional and ethical entanglement."
I never thought that Emperor Youlan could do this.
"The royal family of the Heavenly Family has always believed that strength is respected. It may seem absurd for Emperor Youlan to do this, but in fact, if it can be successful, it will be a great victory. Unfortunately, he trusted too much in his blood relationship with his brother whom he had never met, and underestimated the other party's ambition."
Lin Zhao thought about it and it made sense. From the fact that Emperor Youlan treated Ning Wengui as his own son, she knew that he believed in this kinship very much.
"I heard that the previous Emperor Youlan had only three sons, two of whom died young, and he was the only one who survived. I guess that's why he places so much importance on believing in blood ties."
"It seems that Youlan's momentum has been exhausted a long time ago." Grandma Honghu concluded.
Lin Zhao weighed the scroll in his hand and said, "Let's go to the Thunder Palace."
Grandma Honghu was surprised and said, "I thought you would hand it over to the Lord of Liangyi Palace."
Lin Zhao said, "It's not that I can't, but I don't know how to talk to Ning Wengui after knowing all this."
Before, I just felt a little awkward seeing him, but later, since we fought side by side, the awkwardness disappeared.
But now knowing Ning Wengui's life experience, Lin Zhao and he felt like fellow patients.
how to say?
His biological father wanted to kill him, his nominal father almost became his accomplice, and his biological mother would soon die.
...so miserable
Since she couldn't comfort the person, it was better for her not to see him.
"Then you might have made a mistake. Here he comes."
Just as Lin Zhao was about to fly away on his sword, he felt a pair of eyes following him like a shadow.
She turned her head and saw a silver-haired boy in a purple python robe looking at her not far away.
The setting sun melts gold, and the afterglow of the sunset blends into each other's purple pupils, giving off a kind of magnificent loneliness.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Zhao retracted the bone sword, walked over and greeted him.
Ning Wengui looked at her deeply: "Are you going to Zuhuang Continent?"
“Not yet.” Lin Zhao said, “I plan to go to Yao Chi Holy Land and Thunder Palace.”
Ning Wengui suddenly asked her: "Can I hug you?"
Lin Zhao: "..."
She sighed and took out a purple space stone from her ring.
"This is what I saw in the weapon refining hall. I bought it because I thought it suits you well." Lin Zhao handed it to him and waited for him to take it.
"Ning Wengui, I'm not a good person, nor am I a Taoist partner who can spend your life with you." Lin Zhao sighed: "To be honest, I don't know how to face you. After all, we have both been harmed."
Ning Wengui looked at the purple space stone sparkling on the girl's fingertips and was silent for a long time before he said, "If I can't hold you, can you go with me to see the snow?"
Lin Zhao refused again: "Sorry, I have a lot of things to do later."
"Don't you plan to find a Taoist partner in the future?"
Lin Zhao said, "At least the family must be stable. Only after I ascend will I consider these things."
“Ascend to heaven…” Ning Wengui sighed, “It seems that with my destiny, I can’t reach that step.”
He seemed to have some understanding of his own background.
And he was fully aware of some of Lin Zhao's weaknesses.
For example, that little bit of softness towards acquaintances.
"What's this thing called fate?" Lin Zhao laughed.
"I used to believe in fate, but I found that whether it was the Phoenix Girl of Heaven or the Wasted Phoenix of the Lin Family, wasn't it me? So no one can tell whether you will become a Phoenix or a roasted chicken in the end. Although I can't participate in your fate, if someone wants to control you, I can help you kill him!"
Ning Wengui raised his lips and took the purple space stone: "If I can control my own destiny, after ascending, will you accompany me to see the snow?"
Lin Zhao thought for a moment and said, "I'm sorry."
Ning Wengui sighed: "You don't even want to lie."
Lin Zhao: "I have no intention of doing this and cannot promise you anything."
Ning Wengui slowly clenched the purple space stone: "Goodbye."
Lin Zhao: "..."
Although she didn't know why the other party suddenly became so cold, but based on her sympathy for Ning Wengui, she didn't say anything and flew away on her sword.
When Lin Zhao was no longer visible in the world, Cheng Shaoyan, dressed in a plain dress, slowly walked to his side with the help of her maid and pulled him to sit on the steps.
Seeing her son's fatigue, she patted her legs and let Ning Wengui rest on her head.
"You must like Zhao Zhao very much."
After Ning Wengui lay down, she asked softly.
Ning Wengui slowly closed his purple eyes, which were exactly the same as hers, but even deeper and clearer: "Mother, she doesn't like me."
"I'm sorry that mother hasn't been by your side all these years."
"My mother is very kind to me." Ning Wengui said, "I will follow my mother's wishes and completely destroy this empire and make that guy pay the price."
Cheng Shaoyan shook his head: "In this life, I have no choice but to spend my whole life in prison to seek a way out for my son. But I hope my son can have his own life."
She paused, tears welling up in her eyes: "But child, you are too much like me. You need someone to rely on. My mother and I have been seeking the unattainable love all our lives."
She asked for family affection, but the family, in order to become stronger, ignored her previous pleas and separated her from the swordsman.
In pursuit of love, he was imprisoned by Youyuan for more than ten years and was finally free on the last day.
Fortunately, in the end, she got what she wanted and got her son Ning Wengui.
"Having a son like you, a mother has no regrets." Cheng Shaoyan closed his eyes: "Don't avenge me, go do what you want to do, such as accompanying your beloved girl to see all the scenery in the world of cultivation. I believe Wen Gui, she will be willing one day."
……
Lin Zhao took a teleportation array, handed the things to the master of the Thunder Palace, and then took another teleportation array to arrive near the Yao Chi Holy Land.
“I didn’t expect that a body in the fusion stage would also be unable to withstand the feeling of spatial transformation.” Lin Zhao said after pressing his dizzy head and vomiting violently.
"Just bear with it. You have to be at least in the Nascent Soul stage to be able to freely control your transformation in space." Grandma Honghu said, sensing something, and asked, "Have you and I forgotten something?"
Lin Zhao scratched his head: "What did you forget?"
"Ga-ga-ga! A-ga-ga-ga!"
A three-legged crow half the height of a man flew over, covered in gray, and barked at Lin Zhao.
Unfortunately, Lin Zhao’s cultivation had already reached the fusion stage, and he pinned it down in just a few moves.
She remembered what she had forgotten.
"Jin Ya, how did you find this place?"
The crow turned into a dirty blonde girl and spit out a mouthful of golden flames at Lin Zhao: "How dare you say that! I just took a nap at the Lin family, and when I woke up, the Lin family said you were gone! I followed the contract to find the Youlan Empire, and you immediately changed your location! You think it's easy for me!"
Lin Zhao dodged the golden flames, knowing that he was wrong, and quickly smoothed things over: "When I'm done, I'll take you to Zuhuang Continent for a good meal."
Jin Ya snorted, "I won't forgive you without the meat of a fifth-grade spirit beast!"
