Twilight Speaker

Chapter 152 Ancient Great Wall, Entering the Palace

Wei Wu took a few steps back and slammed into the wall, his hair standing on end!

On the side, Chen Xin quickly swallowed the bun in his mouth and said with a smile:
"Mr. Wei, you don't know that my brother is good at medicine. He went to see little Salem. In fact, he was not dead, but just held his breath for a while, and he was brought back to life."

Chen Xin actually didn’t know how little Salem survived. He only saw his younger brother enter the garage where corpses were stored for a moment, and little Salem came back to life, and he didn’t even need to sit in a wheelchair!

Wei Qingqiu joked at this time:

"Fifth brother, in the extraordinary world, it is common for the dead to come back to life. Besides, little Salem is not dead at all. Are you so scared?"

Wei Wu's eyelids twitched wildly, and he wanted to say something, but he saw the boy with heterochromatic eyes staring at him with a smile, and he swallowed the words back abruptly.

He, no, He.
How did He come back?
Father, didn't you kill this evil spirit? ?
Or is this unknown evil so powerful that even my father can't do anything about it?

Wei Wu's heart was beating wildly, and he forced a smile:
"Xiao Qi."

Wei Qingqiu interrupted:

"Fifth brother, you don't have to say anything more. I won't leave. I will go there myself this time. I am willing to be the sacrifice."

Wei Wu was stunned.

He wanted to advise, but a terrifying being was standing not far away, and the words were on the tip of his tongue, but he could not say them.

He fell silent.

They continued to eat breakfast, but after breakfast, there was no sign of the so-called imperial army, and Wei Shun did not come either.

Chen Xiang, Xiao Wei, his second brother, Wei Tuantuan, Lu Sarah and others sat peacefully in the living room watching TV. He hadn't been so relaxed for a long time and felt more relaxed than ever before.

This is obviously just the most ordinary life for an ordinary family, but for Chen Xiang today, it has become a "luxury".

Until noon, the so-called imperial guards still hadn't arrived, and even the executioner who was supposed to take Wei Wu to the abyss of fire hadn't arrived either. Wei Wu felt a little uneasy.

"Chen Yongshi, shall we go out for lunch?"

Wei Qingqiu spoke cheerfully, a long-lost smile on his face. Chen Xiang waved his hand:
"It's all right. You can arrange it."

As he spoke, he stood up and walked towards the study with Lu Sarah, explaining to everyone as they walked:
"I have something to discuss with little Salem. Call us when we go out for dinner."

"Okay!" Wei Qingqiu responded.

The two of them entered the study, and Wei Wu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, but then his expression became extremely solemn.

Not right.

Something is really wrong.

Lao Liu didn't come, the executioner didn't come, and the boy with different eyes who seemed to be mysterious and evil
Wei Wu's mind turned over and over again, and he asked calmly:

"Xiao Qi, who is your friend?"

"An old friend from Great City." Wei Qingqiu chuckled and said, "Haven't I mentioned this to you many times before, Fifth Brother?"

Wei Wu's eyes flickered, but in the end he said nothing.

…………

study.

Chen Xiang casually flipped through the numerous books on the bookshelf. Most of the books were on the mysterious side, and some were even extremely precious, recording some secret methods and secret stories.

"You went to the palace?"

"Yes." Lu Sarah nodded slightly: "It is certain that the Lord of Donghong is the Great Emperor. You can tell your teacher about this later. I didn't ask the rest."

After a pause,
Luzar sighed softly:
"You are no longer the same as you were before. That guy is Primal Fear, right?"

He was referring to the tall figure shrouded in black robes.

"Well, it's him."

Chen Xiang casually opened a book and started reading:
"The teacher asked me to walk on His behalf and told me everything. This time I came to the capital of Donghong State, in addition to Xiao Wei's affairs, to investigate the problem of the emperor. His problem is very big."

"I know."

Luzar said calmly:

"Did the Speaker tell you what to do specifically?"

"Have."

Chen Xiang smiled:
"Try to find out what the emperor is hiding, and also to contact the forbidden person that the emperor wants to befriend, so I may go to the Misty Sea with Xiao Wei later."

After a pause, Chen Xiang said:

"My eldest sister seems to be in Storm Country. If it's on my way, I'll go and see her. Are you going?"

"That's not on the way."

Lu Sarah shrugged and said, "I know the taboo you mentioned. The Emperor revealed some of it to me last night. It's called [Dimensional Shadow]. It was the vessel of a top true god under the Traveler. Later, that true god fell into the subspace and is likely dead."

After a pause, he continued:

"This [Dimensional Shadow] is extremely mysterious, and I don't know much about him, but what is clear is that he is at the other side of the Misty Sea, completely opposite to the Storm Nation. After we find out what happened to the Emperor, I will go with you to see Big Sister?"

Chen Xiang followed the vague connection and felt for a while, and confirmed that the elder sister was in good condition. He even used a trace of destiny authority he had just obtained, and saw that the elder sister's near future would be smooth sailing. Then he nodded and said:
"That's fine. The first priority is to deal with the emperor's matter. Did you find out anything during your visit to the palace?"

"No, the emperor was highly wary of me, so I couldn't spy on him. It was my fault, I shouldn't have shown up directly."

Chen Xiang was thoughtful:
"I will go to the palace with Xiao Wei, using the identity of Chen Xiang instead of the real shepherd, so as to facilitate investigation. However, the emperor has seen my face, so it is a bit troublesome that I cannot meet Him directly."

After a moment's silence, he suggested:
"How about this? When I go there, you help me create some commotion? Or I can let Primal Terror go directly to trouble the Emperor."

"feasible."

Luzar nodded slightly:
"If Primal Fear is willing to take action, I will attract the emperor's attention and should be able to relax his awareness of the palace for a short time, which will buy you enough time to investigate."

After a pause, he added:

"When I saw the castle coming, I guessed that you might explore the palace, so I negotiated with the emperor last night. Today, the little guy who was going to cause trouble was called back by the emperor, which was to prevent you from exposing yourself. Wei Shun has also seen you."

Chen Xiang smiled faintly:
"Wei Shun, I will deal with him after I finish investigating the palace. Since the emperor cannot take care of his children, I will take care of them for him."

His voice was cold. He had already understood what happened yesterday. If Lu Sarah was really just an ordinary boy, if Wei Tuantuan had not been baptized
After talking with Louisa again and finalizing the follow-up matters, when he was about to end the conversation, Louisa suddenly spoke:
"Speaking of which, do you know why the Speaker changed the Old Parliament to the Red Moon Parliament, and why he labeled the Old Overlords as evil gods?"

Chen Xiang glanced at Lu Salem and said calmly:

"I know a little. My teacher told me that when he was in the warp, the great Emperor Tan discovered the conspiracy of the Old Ones. The Old Ones had betrayed Emperor Tan long ago."

The pupils of Sarah suddenly contracted:
"I see."

Taking a deep breath, he asked:
"By the way, do you want to be a member of parliament? There is a vacant seat in the parliament. All you need to do is get a member's order and..."

"No need."

Chen Xiang waved his hand to refuse, and when he was about to leave the study, he turned his head and asked:
"I heard from the teacher that the new member of the parliament, the Venerable, is also a high-ranking official of the Donghong Kingdom. Can we get his help?"

Lu Sarah was stunned:

"If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten about it. I will try to contact the Venerable later."

Chen Xiang nodded, and then the two of them walked out of the study side by side.

…………

We had lunch at the best restaurant in the capital, paid for by Wei Wu. He accompanied us throughout the whole process, and was terrified the whole time.

Everyone enjoyed the meal very much, except for a scarecrow in a black robe - he had no stomach and could not eat anything at all.

For the rest of the afternoon, the group wandered around the capital and visited many famous attractions. However, when they arrived at a certain attraction, Chen Xiang became a little absent-minded.

"This is left over from the old calendar era."

Wei Qingqiu pointed at the decayed, broken, and only a small section of the city wall remained and said with a smile:
"It is said that it was cast by a kingdom in the early days of the Old Calendar. That period of history is already very vague, and no one knows the name of the kingdom. The First and Second Wars of the Gods buried too much of the history of the Old Calendar."

Chen Xiang did not speak, but quietly stared at the decayed and broken remains of the city wall, and said softly:
“This is called the Great Wall.”

"The Great Wall?" Wei Qingqiu was a little surprised. Lu Salem, who was following beside him, looked at him in astonishment and said:
"Brother Chen Chen Xiang also studies the history of the old calendar era?"

After a pause, he smiled and said:
"I have read an ancient book that talked about the Great Wall. It was built by the ancient dynasty in this land in the early days of the old calendar. This section should be the new Great Wall. Unfortunately, with the vicissitudes of time, only this part is left. We can't see the full picture of the past."

Chen Xiang did not speak. He had researched history, and found that the history of the old calendar era was incomplete. The continents and oceans of this world were also very different from the Earth of his previous life.
Now I can see the Great Wall.

Chen Xiang shook his head, feeling extremely depressed - he suddenly thought, if he was the [greatest], then what was he in his previous life?
What are the experiences and past of the previous life? ?

The memory is so clear, so vivid
Chen Xiang sighed softly and suddenly lost all interest.

………………

Two days passed like this. Chen Xiang accompanied his second brother and Xiao Wei in the capital every day, eating and drinking to their heart's content, living the life that ordinary people should live.

He briefly forgot about the Outer Gods and the Old Days, and put them all behind him - but he had to return to reality in the end.

The real reality is never peaceful, with foreign gods watching, the old masters making unclear plans, and numerous crises hidden and unmanifested, just like the surging tides beneath the sea.

On October 10, an imperial edict came from the palace, summoning the seventh princess Wei Qingqiu and the concubine's princess Wei Tuantuan to the palace for an audience.

"I'm with you."

Chen Xiang said this to the two of them, his eyes gradually becoming deeper, and before heading to the palace, he nodded slightly at the primitive fear shrouded in the black robe.

The latter also nodded.

“The palace.”

Chen Xiang looked towards the direction of the palace, squinting his eyes. He was sure that the emperor had hidden a secret in it, otherwise he would not have guarded the first generation so closely.
So, what's hiding?
Is it related to those traitors?
