You said you could kill the evil spirits without me, why are you crying now?

Chapter 74 Is it really impossible to survive this crisis without Chu He?

When Ji Shengyue heard her mother's proposal, her eyes widened in shock.
He looked at the dignified and majestic middle-aged woman in front of him in disbelief.

There was a huge wave in her heart, and she retorted with a trembling voice: "Mother, do you really know what you are saying? I am the queen of the Dajing Empire and the supreme ruler of this country. How can I bow down to others so easily?"

The middle-aged woman interrupted her, her tone full of blame and disappointment: “You are too naive, child.

When you came to me and said you wanted to fight for the throne, why did I reject you immediately?

Because I can see that your strength does not match your ambition.

You are far inferior to Lu Yinhe from the Great Xia Empire.

I thought you would understand, but I didn't explain myself clearly.

Today, I must wake you up."

"In the eyes of a truly powerful person, your identity, your power, and your pride are all meaningless.

What is your so-called Queen in the eyes of those warriors at the pinnacle of martial arts?
If a strong man at the emperor level wants to take your life, it would only take a snap of a finger.

Even if you are a fifth or sixth rank warrior, killing you is easier than killing a chicken.

What role do you think your power can play in the face of absolute power?"

The middle-aged woman's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Ji Shengyue's heart hard.

She looked at Ji Shengyue's struggling face, feeling both pain and anxiety in her heart.
So he took out his cell phone and opened a video.

The scene in the video shows the most prosperous street in the royal city, but the street at this moment is extremely strange, without the hustle and bustle of the past.

I saw a lot of people gathered on the street, holding banners and loudspeakers in their hands, and their voices were heard one after another.

"Ji Shengyue should apologize to Chu He, the former national god of war, and then abdicate!"

"Ji Shengyue, you are not qualified to sit on the throne!"

"Chu He is the true god of war who protects the country, Xiao Cangqing is just a wolf in sheep's clothing!"

These sounds came like a tide, impacting Ji Shengyue's eardrums and soul.

As she watched the scenes in the video and listened to the angry shouts, she felt an unprecedented sense of crisis in her heart.

What he had done in the past has caused strong dissatisfaction and anger among the people.

Ji Shengyue's hands were tightly gripping the armrests of the chair, her heart full of contradictions and struggles.

She knew that what her mother said was right, but how could she easily give up her dignity and power?
Faced with the current difficulties and the people's calls, she had to make a choice.

"see it?"

The middle-aged woman turned off her mobile phone and looked at Ji Shengyue calmly, her eyes filled with endless expectations.

Ji Shengyue lowered her head weakly. She was really tired.

The pride and confidence that I once had were shattered by the ruthless reality at this moment.

She recalled her previous bold words, saying that the Great Jing Empire could suppress the evil spirits even without Chuhe.

However, the reality is that evil spirits are rampant, evil people are causing trouble, and people are in panic.

When Chu He was alive, the Dajing Empire was prosperous and peaceful, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.

Is it really impossible to get through this crisis safely without Chu He?

Ji Shengyue closed his eyes in pain, his heart filled with endless struggle.

She knew that she might have been wrong, wrong in being too confident and wrong in ignoring the importance of Chu He.

But Ji Shengyue couldn't lower her head for a while!
The middle-aged woman couldn't help feeling distressed when she saw Ji Shengyue's painful appearance.

She shook her head, turned and left, leaving Ji Shengyue alone to face this cruel reality.

If Ji Shengyue still couldn't figure it out, then even if she talked her mouth off today it would be useless.

The future of the Dajing Empire ultimately depends on Ji Shengyue himself.

……

In the devil's lair of the Great Xia Empire, the sky was covered with dark clouds and the entire sky was swallowed by darkness.

Chu He has been closely watching Xiao Cangqing's every move through his soul that remains in his body.

One can't help but sigh that Xiao Cangqing actually reached the emperor realm in such an extreme way.

That New World Organization is indeed unfathomable and elusive.

A strong curiosity arose in my heart, and I wanted to explore the secret behind it.

Chu He speculated whether the young master Liu who was captured by the Great Xia Empire before, and the people behind him, also had some inextricable connection with this New World Organization.

Chu He sat on a branch, lost in deep thought.

The Lighthouse Empire's exposure of the Emperor Realm's strength was the result of a long period of preparation and planning. This shows that the Lighthouse Empire already has a certain number of Emperor Realm powerhouses, and they are confident that no one can surpass them.

The release of this news undoubtedly opened up a new channel for many king-level masters.

Let them see the hope of a breakthrough.

He collected his thoughts and looked back at Ye Lingyun who was in the devil's cave.

She has experienced countless life and death tests these days and struggled on the brink of death many times.

It was these experiences that made her grow gradually and become more resilient.

Chu He helped in secret, allowing Ye Lingyun to find an opportunity between life and death.

Although I stumbled a lot, I was able to escape from danger every time.

Chu He believed that if she was given another day or two, she would be able to break through to the king level.

Then you will be able to complete the task and obtain a golden elixir.

While thinking about it,

Ye Lingyun suddenly broke into the territory of the evil spirit who was holding a rattle and keeping his head down.

This evil spirit is extraordinary, and Ye Lingyun may face great danger.

Ye Lingyun tightly grasped the long sword in his hand and stepped on the gray-brown ground with firm yet cautious steps.

Her sixth sense told her that there was an extremely dangerous evil spirit ahead.

In these few days of fighting,

Ye Lingyun has already felt the energy in his body quietly changing, and an active wave is surging in his dantian.

This is the sign of a breakthrough. Perhaps today I will be able to enter the king level.

Wealth and wealth are sought in danger;
Therefore, despite the dangers ahead, she decided to move forward bravely and pursue that glimmer of opportunity for a breakthrough.

As Ye Lingyun went deeper, the temperature around him began to drop sharply.

The cold air could almost penetrate her clothes and reach her skin.

She stopped and saw a field of black willow trees in front of her.

These willow trees swayed gently in the absence of wind, as if whispering something.

Below the willow field is a swamp, emitting a pungent smell that has never seen the sun all year round.

The ground of the swamp rolled from time to time, and some indescribable existence was hidden underneath.

At this moment, a long-haired man, half of whose body was sitting in the swamp, raised his head very slowly.

His movements seemed unusually stiff; he had been in this position for too long.

The man's face was dry and without a trace of moisture. He looked like a man in his thirties or forties.

There was a cold light flickering in those deep eye sockets.

The sharp teeth in his mouth were like those of a wild beast, which was creepy.

Ye Lingyun did not hesitate. He raised the sword in his hand, gathered all his strength, and slashed at the long-haired man.

The sword energy turned into a crescent moon, flashing with cold light, and was unstoppable.

The moment it touched the long-haired man, the sword energy seemed to hit a barrier that was invisible to the naked eye.

It exploded in an instant and disappeared without a trace.

Although Ye Lingyun's attack failed to cause any substantial damage to the long-haired man, it successfully attracted his attention.

He stood up shakily, still holding the old rattle tightly in his hand.

He shook the rattle gently.

A crisp "clang" sound echoed in the empty swamp.

Ye Lingyun only felt a strange force suddenly attacking him, and his neck instantly lost control and turned violently backwards.

A strong tearing and twisting pain instantly erupted from my neck.
It was as if all the bones and muscles were ruthlessly broken.

The base of my tongue felt numb and throbbing with pain, and my entire body felt like it was being torn apart by this force.

Just when Ye Lingyun was about to lose consciousness, a figure suddenly appeared behind her.

That was Chu He, he put one hand gently on Ye Lingyun's shoulder,
A gentle force instantly surged into her body and dissolved the strange force.
