The Eternal Oasis is not large, so everyone dispersed to search, and it took only half a day to explore the entire oasis.

When they reunited, the magic bottle where Lilupal lived became a little brighter, the aura became more powerful, but the voice became more confused.

"Sister Felicis did not lie...my mistress, she is indeed not here...but I found my fragments..."

"She is no longer here... He lied to us, all of us..."

Ying and Jade looked at each other, "What are you talking about?"

"Nothing...an ancient contract has been canceled...I guess...I'm free?"

Lilupal's voice revealed complex emotions, which seemed to be hateful and relieved at the same time, "A long time ago, the king of Sand Sea promised us that the mistress of the flower sleeps here, and one day she will return from the sea. Wake up here..."

"We believed his words... As the dependents of the Flower God, we signed a contract with him and were loyal to him."

"Maybe it was at that time that Sister Felicis gave up her role as a town spirit, sealed herself in a golden mechanism, and guarded the mistress's mausoleum..."

"And I...I was chosen to find a wise mortal to rule the realm of the Sand King while he sleeps."

"The King of Sand said that a mortal king should lead like a prophet over the lost people, like a shepherd over his flock..."

"I wandered in the desert, and I found that person...or rather, I fell in love with that person..."

"Olmaz, my love... He was just a little shepherd boy at that time, but he possessed the best of all human beings... humility, honesty, bravery, justice, wisdom, compassion..."

"I helped him overthrow the tyrant Huvastra and establish a powerful empire spanning the entire desert..."

"I once thought he would be a companion beyond mortals. I fell in love with his eyes stupidly...but the king's vanity and selfishness finally captured him..."

"He is no different from mortals who live and die. He only knows how to wander in the dream of conquest and persecution, and builds palaces on quicksand as the foundation..."

"He betrayed me...yes, he betrayed me!"

After a long silence, Niyu's voice sounded.

"So you murdered him and his three generations of descendants. Countless people in the empire were drowned in blood, and the desert empire disappeared..."

"Yes, I did it." Lilupal said calmly, "This is Zhenling's revenge for betrayal, triple revenge, from father to son, extending for three generations."

Looking at Yingmei with complicated expressions and Paimon who was trembling with fear, Niwa shook his head and said sarcastically: "Almaz is not a qualified king, and neither are you. Ormaz disappoints you, and you will kill his whole family." It's just your own business, but why are the people to blame? After your revenge, the desert fell into chaos and civil war that lasted for thousands of years, until it withered and degraded to its current state... The people of the desert have really been in trouble for eight lifetimes without you, a pair of sleeping dragons and phoenixes. Blood mold..."

Lilupal sneered: "Indeed, I committed an unforgivable crime and was punished by the King of Sand. It doesn't matter how you mock me... You are also qualified to mock me. After all, your reputation is universal. Know……"

"But young man, my Olmaz was no less wise than you when he was young, but he was eventually swallowed up by power!"

"Power... This kind of thing is like a sweet, slow poison. No matter how strong and tough the soul is, it will be corroded by it... You will be no exception."

"When you get old, your muscles begin to weaken, and your skin begins to sag... When you start to indulge in the past and start to be complacent about the achievements of whipping the people... Haha... I hope that by then, you can still remember Olmaz and me. story, remember what you said about us today!”

Jade looked at Niyu quietly, but found that Niyu didn't have any offended anger. Instead, he nodded sincerely and said: "Indeed. There is no beginning, and there is an end... Similar to the story of you and Olmaz, I have read Countless... Mortals have their own limitations, limitations of strength, limitations of lifespan, limitations of emotions... How difficult it is to transcend oneself. The so-called prosperity and decline are the principles of nature and the law of historical cycles until... It is also an unsolved problem Woolen cloth……"

As he said that, he looked at Yingmei again, "Perhaps the emperor had this in mind before he abdicated the throne in favor of a worthy person, right? Running water does not rot, door hinges do not have beetles, personnel are not hesitant to change, and civilization can always be new. This is what the emperor wants The answer sheet handed over by Liyue's 3,700-year history...and as his successor, I will definitely hand over the answer sheet worthy of history."

"Ying, the emperor said that you are a witness, and I also ask you to bear witness to my oath. If one day, I become as foolish and selfish as Olmaz, please show me your sword! This is you The contract I make here will be witnessed by heaven and earth!"

Ying nodded seriously, "I will, although I may not be able to beat you."

Niwa laughed, "That's not necessarily true...but when the time comes, don't follow Lilupal's example and vent your anger on innocent people!"

Lilupal flickered for a moment, as if he wanted to see whether Niwa meant what he said.

After a long time, she finally sighed: "You are very different from Olmaz... maybe you can really have a beginning and an end..."

Niyu smiled and waved his hands: "It's too early to say this now... What should we do next? What are your plans?"

Lilupal shook his body, "My wish has been fulfilled. My mistress is not here, and the contract with the great master has been cancelled. For the first time in thousands of years, I enjoy free will... I want to be alone and quiet." For a while, think about where to go from now on.”

Jade pointed to the distance and said: "When I was exploring here just now, I found a good place. I want to put my mother's notebook and father's battle ax there... I can be alone."

Ying and Paimon shook their heads, indicating that they had nothing to do.

Niyu nodded and said: "I also want to go to the center of the lake alone to see... In that case, let's all disperse for the time being! Well... the power here will make people feel peaceful and calm, but it may hinder it after a long time. Please pay attention. Don’t go to too remote places.”

After saying that, he moved forward and buried himself in the lake.

The solidified water was as bright as a mirror, holding his body steadily. Soon, he came to the small island in the middle of the lake and saw three chairs placed here.

Seeing that there was no one around, Niyu slowly breathed a sigh of relief and sank his soul into the palace of consciousness. As expected, he saw the Great Ci Tree King standing silently in the center of the palace.

He exchanged glances with Cain, Marcusius, and Dickapian, and then slowly stepped forward.

"Your Highness?"

The Daci Tree King came back to his senses, slowly turned his head, and showed a slightly lonely smile.

"Thank you for bringing me here... Nabu Malikata... This was originally the flower garden I gave her, but now it has become her tomb without a body... How ironic..."

Niyu was silent for a moment, shook his head and said: "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I can't give you much time to remember my old friend now... When I entered the Eternal Oasis just now, I felt a trace... a trace of the power of the abyss. Can you tell me, What's going on?"
