The master said not to judge people by their appearance

Xie Yunlan didn't know the formation method, but he could guess from the situation in front of him: "The dragon's mouth is the formation eye?"

"Yes." Shen Fan frowned slightly, "The eyes of the formation are here..."

Xie Yunlan realized it, and he turned around and asked, "What will happen if you miss a dragon candle?"

"It takes one hundred and eight dragon candle lanterns to form a lantern array. If there is one less..." Shen Fan looked up at Yuan Shuo on the dragon's head, and said in a deep voice, "It's a failure."

Xie Yunlan's expression changed, and before he could ask what to do, he heard someone calling his name.

"Xie Yunlan." Yuan Shuo was so far away from the ground, but his voice clearly reached Xie Yunlan's ears.

"Why don't you kneel when you meet the Holy Monarch?"

This voice echoed repeatedly like a Hong Zhong, with the coercion of the emperor, the surrounding monsters bowed their heads together and surrendered in front of the monarch.

"Holy Lord?" Xie Yunlan not only didn't kneel, he didn't even get off his horse.

He tightened the reins, comforted the horse affected by Yuan Shuo's aura, and said with a sneer, "Evil heretics are also worthy of calling themselves saints?"

"Bold!" Yuan Shuo scolded, "Don't forget, if I hadn't tried my best to overcome all opinions and appointed you at a young age to lead the army, how could you have achieved what you are today!"

"Your Majesty's appreciation, I dare not forget!" Xie Yunlan seemed to be touched, and replied seriously.

"Don't you dare to forget? I think you have completely forgotten!" Yuan Shuo said coldly, "Otherwise, how dare you bring this traitor with you and commit crimes!"

Xie Yunlan remained silent.

Yuan Shuofu slowed down his voice again, and said in a persuasive manner: "I know you are loyal, so I will give you a chance to make up for your mistakes. Not only will you forgive your death penalty, but you will also be granted a high position and generous salary. You will continue to be your general and lead this thousand for me. Thousands of armies conquer the world!"

"You only need to do one thing!" Yuan Shuo raised his voice and pointed at Shen Fan.

"Now, use the sword in your hand to kill him for me!"

The group of monsters shouted together with this voice, overlapping and loud, as if they were helping or urging.

The killing intent from all directions gathered on Shen Fan, and Shen Fan couldn't help but glance at Xie Yunlan.

Soul fire can block evil spirits, but it cannot block mortal weapons.

Especially Xie Yunlan asked: "Really?"

"Golden words, how can they be fake!" Yuan Shuo laughed loudly.

When Shen Fan was hesitating whether he should let go of Xie Yunlan's waist, Xie Yunlan also laughed: "But even if His Majesty forgives my capital crime, I will still die in this killing array tonight."

"Since this formation was created by me, why not save your life?" Yuan Shuo urged, "I will do what I say, so don't hesitate any longer!"

"Then what about the others?" Xie Yunlan asked again, "Chen's younger sister and brother are also in this city. If they are dead, it's meaningless for me to live alone."

Yuan Shuo frowned slightly, as if a little impatient: "After you finish the matter for me, I can let them go."

"There are also guards and staff in the minister's mansion who have followed me for many years. Although they are masters and servants, they are no different from relatives in the heart of the minister. I wonder if your majesty can..."

"Xie Yunlan!" Yuan Shuo interrupted coldly, with an angry look on his face.

"There's also the owner of the noodle shop that I often go to, the guy in the tavern, the old storyteller in the tea house..." Xie Yunlan continued on his own, counting almost everyone he knew in Beijing.

He laughed and said, "Your Majesty, I'm reluctant, how about you let them all go?"

"I don't know what's good and what's wrong!" Yuan Shuo's voice was like thunder, and his anger aroused the devilish energy in the whole city, blowing a violent gust of wind.

Dawanju neighed, unable to stand in the face of this coercion any longer, and hit the ground heavily. Xie Yunlan had already dismounted with Shen Fanfei just before the horse fell down, and the two stood against the strong wind.

"Yuan Shuo!" Xie Yunlan called his name directly, his face was full of anger, and his aura was uncompromising compared to Yuan Shuo, "A king should put the people first, in order to seek longevity, where do you put the common people?! Where do you put the country and the country?!"

"Nonsense!" Yuan Shuo snorted coldly, "Since you are my subjects, you should give everything to my great cause!"

"Including your son?!" Xie Yunlan yelled angrily, "Tiger poison doesn't eat its offspring, yet you don't even spare your own son!"

Yuan Shuo laughed loudly and said, "Ordinary people care about the blood relationship of their offspring for the sake of inheritance. After I grow up to be a dragon, I will live the same life as the sky. I don't need any offspring to succeed me. I will be the emperor for generations to come!"

The group of monsters shouted in unison, as if they were shouting long live.

"Wishful thinking! A monster dragon is a monster dragon, you will never become a dragon!" Xie Yunlan was the only rebuttal in the wave of shouts.

"A mere mortal, I crush you to death like an ant, what are you going to do to stop me!" Yuan Shuo's sleeves trembled, and monstrous devilish energy gushed out from his sleeves, like a roaring mountain and a tsunami, bringing the sky to the ground. The momentum is coming towards Xie Yunlan.

Just like what Yuan Shuo said, ordinary people are as insignificant as ants in front of the power of the sky, even though Xie Yunlan is far superior to ordinary people, he still has to be crushed into flesh.

But there was still one person present.

Shen Fan raised his hands up, his small figure like a mortal was now as tall as a giant supporting the sky with one hand, and all the monstrous devilish energy was blocked in front of the fierce flames.

Shen Fan looked at Yuan Shuo through the colliding flame demonic energy, and said in a deep voice, "He has me."

Yuan Shuo sneered: "Your soul fire has weakened to this point, I want to see how long you can last!"

After saying that, the monster dragon that had not yet fully formed in the air roared, and spit out the huge devil energy accumulated in the formation from its huge mouth, like a river embankment bursting, and smashed towards the ground violently.

Shen Fan took a step back, but it was only a step back. He held on with his own strength, the flames ignited wildly under the impact of the devilish energy, and the white robe fluttered in the wind.

Xie Yunlan yelled in the wind: "How can I help you!"

"Destroy the eyes of the array!" Shen Fan looked at the dragon head holding the magic bead. The dragon head was located at the top of the tower, and apart from Yuan Shuo on the tower, there were densely packed monsters in front of him. The lair of the Ten Thousand Monster Army is also the most heavily guarded place, which is almost impossible.

But Xie Yunlan responded immediately: "Leave it to me!"

Against the wind, he broke into the darkness alone, and a group of monsters immediately surrounded him. A mortal, without the protection of soul fire, is just a fish on a sword!

But in fact, if the mortals are here, maybe they are just fish and meat at the mercy of others, but it is Xie Yunlan who is here, so it is still unknown who is the sword!

The light of the sword reflected the light of the fire, and waved golden afterimages in the darkness. The afterimages were connected into a line, like a dancing golden dragon. He stepped on the corpse of the monster under his feet, and with a kick, he jumped to the third floor of the tower.

The monsters followed closely, and the two sides fought at the protruding eaves corner outside the tower. The monsters were densely packed, and there was almost no place for the monsters to settle down. Two monsters rushed at him from different directions. Shouting, simply fall back.

There is an empty space several feet high behind, and below the open space is a group of monsters who have not yet had time to squeeze up the tower. Even if he is not injured by the fall, the group of monsters will tear him apart in an instant.

But before Xie Yunlan actually fell, he stretched out his long arms, hooked the eaves of the next floor, and almost stopped, but the two monsters that were pounced on him did not have time to stop, and fell straight down after flying into the air, knocking over a piece of the ground. Companions.

Xie Yunlan seized the opportunity, swung his body, turned over neatly in the air, and went up two floors in an instant!

"Trash!" Yuan Shuo was furious. There are so many demon troops, they can't stop a mortal!

He secretly split out several streams of devilish energy, turned them into sharp arrows, and wanted to shoot through Xie Yunlan's chest, but at the same time, Shen Fan noticed that the fire suddenly shot out, forming an indestructible barrier, blocking all the arrows of devilish energy .

Yuan Shuo looked at him coldly, and suddenly asked, "Messenger of the Dragon God, why did you come here?"

Facing the intimidating sight of a poisonous snake, Shen Fan said without dodging or avoiding: "I came here by destiny."

"The destiny?" Yuan Shuo laughed, "What is the destiny?"

Shen Fan didn't answer.

Yuan Shuo answered for him: "Eliminate demons and defend the way? Help the world and save the people? Then why did Beijing become the current situation, and no one has noticed and stopped my layout so far. Isn't this the destiny?"

Shen Fan remained silent.

Yuan Shuo laughed loudly: "If you want me to say that I am the Son of Heaven, every action I take is destiny!"

His laughter echoed in the air, the sound became louder and louder, rumbling like thunder, it was the monster dragon laughing with him, it was no longer a shadow of nothingness, it was solid enough to make a sound!

The demonic energy strengthened again, and the black air all over the sky turned into a world-destructive hurricane, and Shen Fan took another step back in the storm.

"Why do you go against fate?" Yuan Shuoyao looked at Shen Fan with a ferocious smile, "It's God's will to accept your fate!"

The flames were fading, and the demonic energy was dancing wildly. The candle in Shen Fan's hand was dimmed like never before. It was extinguished before the monstrous demonic power, and it was in danger.

Xie Yunlan glanced back, not knowing well, he kicked away the monster that was pounced on him, and at the same time flew upwards, he had already climbed to the eighth floor, only the last step away from the ninth floor where the eye of the formation is located!

Yuan Shuo noticed him and reprimanded him coldly, "No more than a mortal!"

He looked contemptuously like looking at ants on the ground, he flicked his sleeve casually, and a stream of devilish energy pierced towards Xie Yunlan's chest, Shen Fan was already too busy to take care of himself, and he had no energy left to protect him with soul fire.

The devilish energy went straight into Xie Yunlan's chest, and Xie Yunlan's movements froze. He felt a piercing pain, which was worse than any injury he had suffered on the battlefield. The cold blade pierced into the soul and stirred.

He cried out in pain, his body climbing on the eaves of the tower could no longer support him, and he was crumbling in the sky.

Yuan Shuo laughed loudly, as if mocking his overreaching.

But mortals!

These words echoed in Xie Yunlan's blank mind due to the severe pain, and made him feel unwilling anger out of thin air, so what about mortals? !

These demons and goblins each have magical powers and supernatural powers, and treat mortals like ants, but this is the world, and it is the world of mortals, so how can it be the turn of evil spirits to be unrestrained!

He clenched his teeth, fighting against the sharp pain that pierced his soul, what fate, he never believed in fate!

A force erupted out of his soul pierced by the devilish energy, burning ragingly, strangling the icy devil blade to death with scorching heat.

The flames blazed wildly, as if opening up the world in this dark world, burning up all the evil spirits around him.

He looked up at Yuan Shuo in the light, and Yuan Shuo's expression changed drastically, with unbelievable astonishment: "How is it possible?! How can a mortal be so hot?!"

Shen Fan was also stunned for a moment, his astonishment was no less than Yuan Shuo's, he had never seen such a burning soul fire on a mortal.

In their unbelievable eyes, Xie Yunlan was like a scorching sun rising from the east, piercing the magic bead that condensed the deepest darkness with bright flames!

With a sound of "crack", the body of the pearl shattered under the blade, and the black air column that spread all over the city disintegrated, and the demonic energy was dissipating, turning into turbulent currents that swept across the city, setting off a fierce gust of wind.

"How dare you?!" Yuan Shuo and the Yaojiao roared in the wind together, mobilizing all the devilish energy to run towards Xie Yunlan.

"Shen Fan!" Xie Yunlan shouted loudly while jumping off the tower.

Shen Fan raised his right hand high, and the flame that had been suppressed by the magic pressure to the point where there was only a thin line of flame rekindled at this moment, the flame jumped up, and 1 dragon candle lamps were lit up!

From the Dragon Temple to the Dragon Pagoda, the lights on Simamen Chi Road are brightly lit. One hundred and eight dragon candle lamps are connected to each other, fueling the fire with each other. There is nothing to do in front of the flame barrier.

Yuan Shuo felt an extremely terrifying power condensed in this lamp array. The power came from the eternal ghost, which is the most feared person by the demons in the world. Just sensing the other party's breath made him shudder endlessly.

Never let this light array form!

Yuan Shuo's scarlet eyes showed desperate madness. He raised his arms high, and the human figure began to disintegrate and dissolve, turning into streaks of black energy and blending into the body of the monster dragon.

Although it will be difficult for him to try to transform into a dragon again in the future if he merges into the dragon body before he can be refined into a dragon, but at this moment, there is no room for hesitation!He wants to abandon his fragile mortal body and completely turn into a demon!

Yao Jiao closed his eyes briefly, and opened them a moment later, his scarlet pupils were just like Yuan Shuo's!

"Oops!" Xie Yunlan had a premonition that something was wrong, but he couldn't stop it.

Yao Jiao looked down at his huge claws, and then at the two people on the ground who were not as big as his own claws. Before, he felt that mortals were small, but now that he had such a huge figure, he felt different again. Not to mention mere mortals, but this city, this mountain and river, are so small in his eyes!

What a mighty force!

This is the immortal dragon he dreamed of!

He laughed loudly, swimming in the air, his huge body just swayed casually, and the tower with the last dragon candle lamp on it collapsed under the huge force, the tower body fell, and the dragon lamp fell to the ground, shattering into pieces. Countless large and small copper blocks, no longer in the shape of a dragon.

The ground shook amidst the laughter, Xie Yunlan could hardly stand still, while avoiding the fallen copper block, he rushed to Shen Fan, wanting to take him away from the area where the tower collapsed.

But I don't know if Yuan Shuo did it on purpose, the copper block that fell to the ground was cast into a high wall, blocking his way, Xie Yunlan shouted at the other party through the gap in the wall: "Shen Fan!"

Shen Fan glanced at him, his expression still calm.

Xie Yunlan didn't understand why Shen Fan was so calm, the last dragon candle was clearly visible... Wait, Xie Yunlan suddenly noticed that only the lamp holder collapsed, and the flame in the dragon's mouth was still burning silently in the rubble !

The flames were converging, above Shen Fan, above the entire length of the road, the lights of one hundred and eight dragon candle lamps condensed into a huge flame phantom.

This phantom is very similar to the monster flood dragon, but it is completely different, for example, the shining body that is different from the gloomy devilish energy, and the towering double horns that are gradually forming.

Shen Fan raised his hand up, and the soul fire in his hand was injected into the phantom along with the one hundred and eight dragon lanterns, and the fire intensified again. At this moment, the burst of light was as bright as day, and the whole city was watching it!

Under everyone's gaze, under the horrified sight of the monster dragon, the phantom of the flame stretched its body in the air, its claws and teeth were towering, and its beard was furious. The majesty drawn by the statue was not as majestic as his true self, Xie Yunlan restrained the urge to bow his head and bow , muttering his name, overlapping with Yuan Shuo's horrified voice.

he is--

"The dragon holding the candle!"

The dragon holding the candle let out a roar in the night sky, and the flaming dragon body slammed into the monster dragon. The monster dragon who was so arrogant just now didn't even have the courage to fight head-on, and turned around to escape into the darkness.

A dragon that can hold a candle, walk and break the darkness!

Where the candle dragon passed by, the dark demon energy, thousands of demon troops, and even those unborn demon fetuses in their wombs all melted in the scorching flames!

The monster dragon has nowhere to escape, he looks at others like an ant, but he is no more than an ant in front of this towering dragon god.

The Jiao body was burning, and Yuan Shuo roared unwillingly, but in the end he could only watch his stalwart body, his great cause of immortality, turn into nothingness and ashes in the fierce flames.

The demonic energy that covered the sky dissipated under the light of Candle Dragon, a golden light appeared among the clouds, and the red sun, which was bigger than the dragon's body, rose from the sky, and the figure of Candle Dragon gradually faded away. nowhere to be seen.

Only Yu Shen Fan stood alone on the ruins, bathed in the golden light, dressed in snow-colored robes, as holy as a god in the sky.
