Soul echo

Chapter 757 Chaos ([-])

The supervisor was silent for a moment, but in the end he did what Zhong Ye said.

Because just like what Zhong Ye said, if you don't do that, the emperor will die here!

However, cutting the soul requires skill. If you are not sure which part of the soul needs to be cut, or if the cut is not clean, and there are leftovers, the emperor will still die in the future.

Therefore, Zhong Ye squatted down and asked in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, do you trust me?"

At this moment, the emperor's mind was already in a blur, and severe pain flooded his brain, making it difficult for him to respond to external information.

However, after hearing that voice, the emperor was able to grit his teeth and squeeze out two syllables: "Zhong...ye..."

"What you have to do now is to stick to yourself and don't have any doubts about yourself!"

Seeing the emperor's ferocious face with bulging veins, Zhong Ye's eyes were cold and stern.

He has now realized why Yang Zhiyuan said those words - in order to shake the emperor's will!

The emperor's will was extremely firm, otherwise he would not have shown any sign of shrinking back when faced with a seemingly hopeless situation.

The former aristocratic families almost completely restricted the imperial power within the capital, but the emperor was not afraid at all. On the contrary, he was thinking about destroying those aristocratic families all the time.

He wants the country to be prosperous and prosperous, and he wants to bring a happy and beautiful life to the people. No matter why he has these ideas, in short, he has been walking on this path.

Therefore, Zhong Ye wanted to help him!

Firm...doubtful...

In the ears of the emperor, the entire sentence was compressed into two words, and his current brain was unable to think at all, and he didn't know what these two words represented.

What exactly do those two words mean, what do they represent, are they trying to tell him what to do?

As soon as a thought appeared in his mind, it was washed away by the pain, and the emperor screamed again involuntarily.

Seeing this, Zhong Ye frowned.

"Is anyone there?" He raised his head and shouted into the void above.

The supervisor gave Zhong Ye a puzzled look, above was the beam of the Jinluan Palace, where is there anyone?

Zhong Ye looked solemnly at the void in front of him, and waited for a moment.

Then, a paragraph of text jumped out in front of my eyes.

[We already know the situation, but the King of Conspiracy is attacking our world. He probably wants to delay our power. The gods on the west land side are too far away from the east land, and many things have happened recently, so there is no way to help Your favor, but we can lend you a bit of divinity——the divinity from the god of dreams and fighting! 】

Zhong Ye pursed his lips tightly, nodded and said, "Yes, thank you for your help!"

【You're welcome, Dongtu is also our important ally—well, get ready to receive it! 】

Taking a deep breath and adjusting his mood, Zhong Ye saw a radiance emerging from the void in front of him.

He raised his hand to hold the radiance, and a familiar feeling emerged spontaneously.

After pondering for a moment, Zhong Ye pointed his index finger at the emperor's forehead.

The supervisor watched from the side, hesitating a little, but he still did not stop Zhong Ye's move in the end, because he believed that Zhong Ye could not hurt the emperor.

And the fact is the same, after Zhong Ye's index finger touched the emperor's forehead, the emperor calmed down instantly, but the expression froze on his face.

Immediately afterwards, Zhong Ye lowered his eyes and sent his mind into the emperor's mind.

At this time, the mind was still full of turmoil, but with Zhong Ye's help, the emperor's consciousness had recovered.

"Here... where is it?"

Although the 'eyes' can't see anything, the consciousness can clearly feel that the surroundings are full of violent wind and rain, and the clouds are treacherous.

[This is your mind, your consciousness. 】

A voice suddenly interjected, startling the emperor, "Who?!"

【I'm Zhong Ye, you're in a crisis now, if you don't want to die, just do as I say. 】

The emperor frowned slightly. The voice spoke directly, without any cover-up or hypocrisy. It really sounded like what Zhong Ye would say.

[To make a long story short, one of the villains broke into the bureaucracy and polluted one of the national artifacts with the breath of the abyss. He said that there is no way to kill you as a human, but after you become a demon, you can be killed Yeah, don't know where the saying came from, but they want to make you a demon. 】

Hearing this, the emperor fell silent.

"So what to do?"

【Persist yourself! 】Zhong Ye said in a deep voice,【The breath of the abyss is still working. As long as you are firm in your existence, the breath of the abyss will divide your soul into two distinct parts. After waiting for the opportunity, there is one of your subordinates waiting outside. As long as the time comes, he will help you cut out the part of your soul that is polluted. 】

[I will speak less in the future, and I will only call you when you are about to sink, because this is your battle, whether you can survive it is entirely up to you, and I can't help you much. 】

After saying that, Zhong Ye disappeared without saying a word.

Standing alone in this chaotic void, the emperor secretly sighed in his heart: "Stick to yourself..."

This is easy to say, but how many people in this world can do it?

He knew that Zhong Ye could definitely do it, but whether he could do it himself was a question.

If you want to stick to yourself, you need to understand what is 'self', so the emperor began to recall his past.

…………

"Father, father, when will you take us out of the palace again?" The youngest prince asked innocently, pulling the emperor's sleeve.

The emperor looked down at him, then looked at the children standing in the distance, watched them hide after seeing his gaze, smiled helplessly, and touched the little prince's head, "Your brother and sister are here to tease you again is you?"

The little prince's expression became flustered, and he turned to look at the place where his brother and sister were hiding.

The princes and princesses hesitated for a moment, then walked over from not far away.

The emperor sighed, bent his fingers and tapped the heads of his own children, "Next time you want to go out to play, you can come and tell the emperor yourself, don't keep teasing your younger brother."

Then, the emperor looked around, pulled the children over, and said in a low voice: "Go change clothes, let's go out quietly, don't tell your mother and concubine, if they ask, just say that the father will take you to investigate." Got it, got it?"

The expressions of the princes and princesses suddenly became excited and they nodded repeatedly.

The emperor chuckled and patted their backs, "Go ahead, wait for Emperor Father at the gate of the harem later."

The children ran away happily, and the emperor's smiling eyes were in a trance for a moment, and then he regained his clarity.

——I should still be considered a relatively enlightened father.

…………

"Your Majesty, this is the white fungus and lotus seed soup cooked for you by my concubine. It's too hot this summer, drinking this will just make you angry."

Hearing that sweet voice, the emperor took a light breath, and when he looked up, he saw a face that seemed familiar, both familiar and unfamiliar.

Shangguan Ninghe, his former concubine, made a political marriage in order to appease Shangguan's family.

This is a typical little woman from a family, without her own thoughts, she insists on the will of the Shangguan family from the beginning to the end, eliminates dissidents in the palace, and does everything in order to win favor.

But everything she did was for Shangguan's family, and she never thought of doing anything for herself.

The emperor picked up the spoon, scooped up a spoonful of soup, and put it in his mouth.

The warm and sweet taste melts in the mouth, penetrates into the body through the tongue, and washes away most of the summer heat in one bite.

The emperor lowered his eyes and savored it carefully. He could notice that Shangguan Ninghe was sitting at the table with a smile on his face. His eyes were full of joy, including himself.

Perhaps only at this time can she show a little bit of herself.

Then, the emperor couldn't help but sighed.

Because just half a month later, Shangguan's family was destroyed by Zhong Ye, and Shangguan Ninghe was thrown into limbo. On the third day after that, she hanged herself to death.

…………

"Wrinkled, like a little monkey..."

The princess looked at the child in the arms of the prince, and couldn't help frowning, feeling disgusted.

"Hahahaha! Which family is not born like this?" The prince smiled, and gently stroked the baby's lanugo, "It will look better when it grows up!"

The crown princess rolled her eyes, looking at the child sleeping quietly in the swaddle, shed tears for some reason.

"Eh? My concubine, why are you crying?" The prince was in a hurry, but worried about the child in his arms, he asked in a low voice.

"Your Highness, Your Highness...the concubine's body and stomach don't live up to expectations." The crown princess sniffed and choked up, "I actually gave birth to a daughter..."

The prince was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing: "Hey! What did Aifei say? Aren't boys and girls the same? What's there to cry about?"

The princess did not speak, she shed tears silently, bit her lower lip and looked at the prince.

The prince didn't speak, because he didn't know what to say, the baby in his arms seemed to feel it, and started crying with a wow.

The two suddenly panicked, the princess snatched the child from the prince's arms like crazy, kissed the child's wrinkled face softly, and then cried even more sadly.

The prince opened his arms stiffly in panic, and hugged the two mother and daughter into his arms.

... So, was he so panicked when his first child was born?
