Stunning beauty

Deep inside the palace.

Under the cover of darkness, there were gusts of cold wind around the royal ancestral temple, which symbolized death. From a distance, it looked pitch black and chilling.

The royal ancestral temple, which had been hidden deep inside the Great Shang Palace for a thousand years, had been unknown to the public for thousands of years until the Rakshasa King Tao Yaoyao single-handedly broke through the palace and began to appear before the public.

The word "ancestral hall" has represented death since ancient times. Living people cannot enter an ancestral hall.

Today, in the dark night, in the royal ancestral hall, a faint divine light appeared, and the Vermillion Bird appeared, meeting Tai Shang again after a thousand years.

"No need to try to get close to me. I'm not that familiar with you."

Between the coffins, Tai Shang said indifferently, "If it weren't for that kid's request, I wouldn't bother with your shitty business."

"I understand."

In front of the coffin, Zhuque responded, "In the battle at Tianshan Peak, I was defeated by that kid. The heart meridian of this body was seriously injured and I was on the verge of death. Over the years, I have witnessed the growth and efforts of that kid. However, it is too difficult to save a dying person."

"Don't you have some immortal god? Why don't you give it a try?"

Tai Shang asked, "It shouldn't be a bad thing for you if the Suzaku Saint Lady wakes up."

"The immortal body of a god has limited effect on repairing internal organs."

Zhuque answered truthfully, "Moreover, the relationship between me and Suzaku Saint is not just a simple possession. More than ten years ago, I reached an agreement with the Suzaku Sect to separate a part of my consciousness into the body of the young Suzaku Saint. I will grow with her and at the same time repair my severely damaged consciousness. In this process, my consciousness and Suzaku Saint's consciousness inevitably merged until her consciousness was completely assimilated by me."

"Those useless people in the Suzaku Sect are really more of a hindrance than a help."

Tai Shang sneered, "Now, even I have to suffer. Suzaku, that little guy will go to the Kingdom of God soon. If you give up the control of this body, I can let him take the part of your consciousness that you left in the Suzaku Sect's statue back to the Kingdom of God. How about that?"

"it's out of the question."

Zhuque said solemnly, "This part of my consciousness has almost completely merged with the consciousness of the Suzaku Saint. If I leave this body, the Suzaku Saint will die immediately."

"No solution?" Tai Shang frowned and asked.

"No solution."

Zhuque nodded and said, "A body is not important to me. Now, it's not that I can't live without Saint Suzaku, but Saint Suzaku can't live without me."

"How much of your spiritual consciousness is left in the statue of the Suzaku Sect?" Tai Shang asked.

"Sixty percent." Suzaku replied.

"There are still so many?"

Tai Shang was surprised and asked, "Why, are you afraid of death?"

"You can say that."

Suzaku did not hide it and nodded, "After all, growing up with a young Suzaku Saint, the possibility of her dying halfway is still very high. How dare I place all my hopes on her?"

"What if that part of your consciousness also enters the body of the Suzaku Saint?"

Tai Shang thought for a moment and asked, "What consequences will there be?"

"What is weak cannot be replenished."

Zhuque spoke truthfully, "The situation of the Suzaku Saint is very bad. I dare not take any action. Taishang, you should understand that the guy is not easy to deal with now. If anything happens to the Suzaku Saint, I will be in big trouble. So, at this moment, I don't ask for merit, but I ask for no fault."

"It's really troublesome."

Tai Shang cursed with an unhappy look, "You bastard, why did you have to pick on him when you could pick on anyone else?"

"I didn't provoke him."

Zhuque smiled bitterly and said, "This is the decision of the Suzaku Sect. It has nothing to do with me. If I want to seize someone else's body, I can choose anyone. Why should I accompany a young Suzaku Saint to grow up together?"

"That's true."

Tai Shang said, "The dumbest ones are the idiots of the Suzaku Sect. But you are almost the same. You bully the weak and fear the strong. If that kid wasn't so powerful, you would have forced yourself out of the Suzaku Saint's body and run away. Why would you care about the life and death of a Suzaku Saint?"

Upon hearing this, Suzaku fell silent. After a moment, he nodded and said, "I don't deny that there are reasons for this. I can't afford to offend that kid right now. Of course, the most important thing is that I grew up with the Suzaku Saint for so many years, and I don't want her to die."

"Hypocrisy, forget it, I won't argue with you."

Tai Shang said calmly, "I will help this girl restore some of her consciousness first. You should try to separate from her. The Suzaku Saint is kind-hearted. If she can wake up and say a good word for you, it will be better than you making a hundred excuses. It's also a symbiotic relationship. Look at the phoenix in that boy's body. It's afraid that its consciousness will affect that boy, so it has been deliberately restraining its power. Compared with the pattern, you are really far behind."

"I'll try my best." Suzaku replied helplessly.

Tai Shang nodded without saying anything more. He raised his right hand, and suddenly, in the royal ancestral hall, the Nine Cauldrons that guarded the world began to vibrate violently. An endless stream of purple dragon energy gathered and sank into Zhu Zhu's body in the coffin bit by bit.

Just as Tai Shang took action to repair Zhu Zhu's spiritual consciousness, outside the palace, on the street returning to Li Garden, Li Ziye noticed movement behind him and turned to look at the palace behind him.

But above the palace, purple dragon energy filled the air and an illusory giant dragon was looming, and it was obviously much weaker than before.

"The fortune of the Shang Dynasty is declining." Huanzhu said softly on the side.

"Not only the fortune of the Shang Dynasty, but the fortune of the entire human world is declining."

Li Ziye said calmly, "The demon race is also no longer the same as before. The gods are the same too. They are just worse than before."

Huanzhu was about to speak, but suddenly, as if she noticed something, she looked forward and reminded, "Brother, Hongzhu is here."

"It just so happens that Li Yuan is short of people recently."

Li Ziye retracted his gaze and said, "Hongzhu, come here, even if it's just to help with the cooking!"

While the two were talking, Hongzhu walked over from outside Li Garden and entered the mansion while the servants in the mansion looked as if they had seen a ghost.

In the opinion of the Li family servants, Miss Hongzhu should have died, and was killed by the killer from Yanyu Tower.

What is going on?

"Why, you're not happy to see me alive?"

In the front yard, Hong Zhu saw a group of people with expressions as if they had seen a ghost, and said unhappily, "I have been recovering from my injuries until now, and I just escaped from the gates of hell. Is this how you welcome me?"

"No, it's not."

An old servant of the Li family reacted and said excitedly, "We are of course happy that Miss Hongzhu is alive."

"Red Candle girl?"

At this moment, in the East Courtyard, Mao Nanfeng walked out quickly and asked excitedly, "Why are you here?"

"Come back and take a look, old man, how did you get into such a terrible state?" Hong Zhu asked in surprise, looking at the disheveled appearance of his cheap master.

"Busy."

Mao Nanfeng responded, "Someone wants to go to heaven recently. I have been working day and night to send him there as soon as possible!"
