"Old man..."

Gu Xiaoman was stunned for a second, then took the thin piece of paper.

An old man and a young man looked at each other.

Gu Qilin quietly raised a finger in front of his lips, winked at the little girl in front of him, and signaled the latter to put the letter away.

Gu Xiaoman understood what the old man meant, so he swallowed back the words he was about to say.

"Today's battle is a great victory."

Gu Nanfeng said: "The low-level extraordinary creatures of the Traveler tribe reproduce very quickly, but the number of gray dragons is very small. With this level of combat power, even if only one person is lost, it is a big loss!"

【Deep Sea】 The layout of this battle was also to test the strength of the current Beizhou garrison.

"There will be a period of peace and quiet."

He paused, then came back to the wheelchair behind Gu Qilin, leaned over and said, "Old man... you might as well rest during this period and don't ask any more about the Battle of Gubao."

This was said very tactfully.

Gu Qilin couldn't tell that Gu Nanfeng asked him not to get involved in the war?

"I just go into battle and charge, and I don't interfere with your senior management's decision-making." The old man coughed twice and said with resentment: "Master Gu... why do you want to deprive me of this last bit of freedom?"

Gu Nanfeng felt helpless at this call from the Gu family master.

He also said resentfully: "Look at Mr. Zhou Wei... he retired from the border last year and stayed in Nagano to rest peacefully. How worry-free is that?"

The classic "Look at me" opening.

"Zhou Wei?"

Gu Qilin refused to accept this trick and sneered and said: "This old guy's physical condition is very poor and he is very weak. He just suffered some minor injuries in the battle, so he is willing to withdraw from the line of fire."

Mr. Zhou Wei was plotted by 【Deep Sea】 during the Battle of Gubao last year. He was ambushed by two titled gray dragons. He narrowly escaped death and barely escaped.

Such achievements...

It turned out to be a "mere minor injury" in Mr. Gu's words.

Gu Nanfeng knew that his old man had served in the military all his life and had a brilliant record. He was also extremely stubborn...According to his old man's standards, the so-called minor injuries in the so-called "slight injuries do not leave the line of fire" were probably the only injuries second to death. With his character, he had to bury half of his head in the soil before he could willingly leave the battlefield.

Obviously, the idea of ​​"moving things with emotion and understanding them with reason" is of no use to an old man like him who likes to fight to the death.

Gu Nanfeng pushed the wheelchair out of the snowy field and said in a cold and serious tone: "You are getting older. When you reach your age, you should rest. I will make the decision for you about returning to Nagano to rest. Things like charging into battle will be left to the young people in the future. People!"

"Hey Hey hey……"

Mr. Gu was a little anxious and wanted to say something quickly, but when he looked back and saw the indifferent expressions of Bai Xiu and Gu Xiaoman, he finally sighed helplessly.

at this point.

The old man knew... Gu Nanfeng had made up his mind to let him leave the Beizhou battlefield, and there was no room for negotiation on this matter.

…

…

After Gu Nanfeng pushed the old man away, only Bai Xiu and Gu Xiaoman were left on the snowy field.

There is also Alfred who flies around like a bee and calls on the red shadow to do his work.

Gu Xiaoman closed his sleeves and held tightly the letter that Mr. Gu had thrust into his hand.

Bai Xiu glanced at it and looked away.

"I...continue to retreat." Gu Xiaoman felt a little guilty after being glanced at, and turned his back, wanting to run away.

"follow me."

The fluttering white sleeves stopped her with one word.

The little guy said with a grimace: "Where to go? I just had a fight. It was a tough battle. Isn't it too much to rest for a while?"

Bai Xiu chuckled softly.

A tough fight?

Although the specific scene of Gu Xiaoman's battle against the gray dragon was obscured by dreams and outsiders could not see clearly... he knew very well that it was not a hard battle. Gu Xiaoman did not even sweat after the fight was over.

Baixiu, who didn't expose Gu Xiaoman's true thoughts, added another sentence.

"Don't you want to break into the Tower of Source and smelt the fire of wine? I will take you to see the holder of the light fire."

Seeing that Gu Xiaoman was stunned, Baixiu looked back and added: "Meng Xizhou is troubled with many things. Even for me, it is not easy to see her. I don't know when we will meet next time."

Having said that, quicken your pace.

Gu Xiaoman's eyes lit up and he quickly followed.

…

…

Xizhou Xiyin City has now become the headquarters of the Church of Light.

In this city, the believers who originally believed in the Storm God's Throne have now become believers in the light.

The storm abandoned them.

So... they also abandoned the storm.

Belief is something that, once established, will not change, even in the face of death.

Unless, encounter 【Holy Book】.

Meng Xizhou is located on the battlefield of Nanzhou. The Church of Light chose Xiyin City as the location of the temple and used it as a stronghold. In the past four years, it gradually gained the upper hand in the Nanzhou War. However, the advantage it gained in this war was not enough. To convert into victory.

"Boom!"

In recent days, the sky over Xiyin City has been covered with clouds and light rain has continued. At this moment, a snow-white thunder flashed past, and two figures, one large and one small, rode the thunder directly into the Temple of Light. Several of the guards sent by Xizhou were not even aware of this.

However, there were already people waiting in the hall.

Bai Xiu unfolded the 【Thunder World Walker】 domain, wrapped Gu Xiaoman in thunder light, and walked through the fine rain.

Meng Xizhou's current status in Xizhou is like that of Queen Lin Lei of Beizhou back then.

The place where she retreated was personally guarded by Su Ye, the former holy son of the temple. After Gu Nanfeng robbed the secret prison of Guangming City, Su Ye was dismissed from his position, but later reappeared in the public eye.

The reason why this "sinful man" could be re-promoted was because he had experienced the cleansing of the 【Holy Book】 by Meng Xizhou himself.

Now Su Ye has become one of the top three "leaders" in the temple. After coming to Nanzhou, he made successive military exploits, and was even given the status of a resident in front of the temple by Meng Xizhou.

This identity is the same as the commander of the Purple Rain Army back then.

Those who are not close friends and dead soldiers cannot be held in charge.

The white-sleeved 【Thunder World Walker】 blended in with the heavy rain in Xiyin City. Only one person noticed something strange, and that was Su Ye who was personally stationed in front of the Guangming Palace. This "resident" stood with his sword like a stone sculpture. In front of the palace, his eyes suddenly opened at this moment, and he was about to draw his sword.

"Back off."

A light word made him return to the state of stone sculpture.

So 【Thunder Realm Walker】 had an unobstructed journey, and Baixiu led Gu Xiaoman into the Yinghuo portal in front of the temple, entered the divine realm, and met Meng Xizhou on the throne.

Gu Xiaoman turned around in surprise and couldn't help but glance at Su Ye a few more times.

The extraordinary aura exuding from Su Ye made her feel "threatened". This was an extremely powerful title... at least stronger than the gray dragon she had killed before! It's just that there seems to be something missing in this title's eyes.

Su Ye's eyes were golden and blazing!

Full of light!

But there is no soul of his own!

Gu Xiaoman knew very well the strength of Master Baixiu.

Nowadays in Wuzhou, even if you include the traveler group... as long as they have never smelted fire and never mastered the origin, these people together are definitely no match for Master Baixiu!

With the ability of 【Thunder World Walker】, going to any place in the world is as easy as drinking tea and water.

Ordinary account ban, there is no time to react.

But this guy was aware of the aura of "Thunder Domain".

Gu Xiaoman guessed in his mind that this guy most likely received a gift from the Light Fire.

She was right. If Su Ye only relied on his own strength, there would be no way he could feel the arrival of the 【Thunder World Walker】.

He was willing to be a "resident" in front of Mengxizhou's Guangming Palace with his sword. If he offered his free hands, he would naturally gain something. He gained the trust of Mengxizhou and the favor of Guangmingtinder.

in this way.

He turned into a sharp sword hanging in front of the Guangming Palace, and also turned into a statue stationed in front of the Guangming Palace.

"coming."

Meng Xizhou, who was sitting on the throne, spoke softly and asked the two visitors to sit down. She saw a vast sun above her head, which was quite similar to the power of Mr. Gu Changzhi in the golden field. The temple was shrouded in golden light, dazzling but Not scorching.

Two rays of light condensed into a seat under Bai Xiu and Gu Xiaoman.

Baixiu still stood.

But Gu Xiaoman was not polite and jumped back carelessly.

"Is this the future 'Lord of Wine'?"

Meng Xizhou looked at Gu Xiaoman with a smile.

Gu Xiaoman is very familiar with sitting on the golden throne. She has heard Meng Xizhou's name mentioned many times. When this bright quasi-god seat is mentioned by the world, she is often called "Goddess", and when she is mentioned, Another name is often mentioned.

Gu Nanfeng.

Ximeng looked eastward, and although the two of them had no words of matchmaking, they had already become a good story in everyone's hearts.

Almost every night watchman in the Gu family firmly believes that as long as this war is over... their young master will marry Miss Meng of the Temple of Light in a glorious manner. However, the great cause comes first, and the personal relationship between the children must be put aside.

"It's ridiculous, I haven't even written the character of the Master of Wine yet." Gu Xiaoman asked with a smile: "Should I thank you for taking care of Gu Nanfeng in the past few years?"

"Thank me?" Meng Xizhou was stunned for a moment.

"Gu Nanfeng treats me very well, like an elder brother." Gu Xiaoman clasped his fingers, raised his face and asked seriously: "So should I call you Lord God, or sister-in-law?"

"..."

Meng Xizhou smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Baixiu's eyes were full of apology and helplessness.

This little guy... has grown up wildly since he was a child, and has grown up crawling and rolling in the mud. As he gets a little older, it is inevitable that he will be full of Jianghu aura.

"No need to be polite, just treat me as one of your own family."

Meng Xizhou smiled and spoke. This reply could be regarded as answering Gu Xiaoman's question.

"Okay, sister-in-law!"

Gu Xiaoman nodded obediently, and then got straight to the point: "Master Baixiu brought me here to understand my confusion."

She asked straight to the point.

"I see that this divine realm is full of blazing holy light. Is this beginning to take shape? With your talent, four years should be enough to smelt fire... Presumably your fire has completed the initial refining process. Bar?"

This time Meng Xizhou did not answer Gu Xiaoman's question.

Meng Xizhou said softly: "Do you want to ask why you don't hit the Tower of Source?"

"Yes! This is exactly what I am confused about!"

Gu Xiaoman's eyes became sharp, "Mr. Bai Shu and Queen Lin Lei, the two of them worked together to fight Qingwu and dragged the sky throne into the mud... Now only one 'helper' is needed to break this deadlock. This We can't do this, but you can."

Meng Xizhou looked at ease and listened quietly.

"I wouldn't wait so long if I were you."

Gu Xiaoman said seriously: "After I finish smelting the fire, I will break into the Tower of Source immediately."

This is actually a very presumptuous accusation.

After she finished speaking, she looked at Meng Xizhou and found that the latter's expression was not angry, but still calm and calm.

Meng Xizhou smiled and said, "Then what?"

From Gu Xiaoman's point of view, this is a very puzzling question.

"Then...of course we will liberate Mr. Bai Zhu and His Majesty Lin Lei."

Meng Xizhou chuckled and shook his head.

"look."

After uttering one word, she slowly stretched out a hand.

Two blazing lights condensed in the hall, and under her will, the two blazing lights collided together... Gu Xiaoman held his breath and concentrated on the scene in front of him.

The two masses of blazing light collided and intertwined.

These two groups of light... seem to have different intensities.

The mass began to break apart, cracks blooming.

The other side... was intact as before, without any trace of cracking. Under the pressure exerted by Meng Xizhou, the two groups of glow invaded each other's "body"!

To be precise, it was the more intense light that shattered the latter, and gradually crushed it, slowly crushing it!

"this?"

Gu Xiaoman was stunned and didn't understand what Meng Xizhou meant for a moment.

"This is the battle between gods."

Meng Xizhou said calmly: "Extraordinary beings who have mastered the origin will become extremely difficult to kill... Battles of the same level often take a long time to end. Unless they encounter an opponent with overwhelming strength or extremely restrained attributes. For those who are in charge The 'God Throne', which holds the most powerful power in the world, will take a longer time to decide the winner. This is why Mr. Bai Shu and the others can delay Qingwu for such a long time, because they dragged this battle into It's a situation that will never end, regardless of life or death."

Gu Xiaoman still looked confused.

"Qinglong accepted the challenge, and had the same idea. He wanted to strangle these two gods in his own divine domain... so he took on this 'war between gods' that will not end until the end of the year."

Meng Xizhou said solemnly: "With Qingyu's strength, if he doesn't have a full chance of winning, he will not take on this battle at all. Obviously, he thinks that he will win even if he is one against two. And the Tower of Source is here The 'silence' maintained for four years has further confirmed this guess. The longer this battle goes on, the greater the upper hand Qinglong has. Do you think we have the upper hand if we attack now? In fact, it is not what you think at all. The divine throne will be blessed by unparalleled power in its own divine realm!"

"If you just intervene in the battlefield like this, what you have to face...isn't Qinghui with residual health."

"It's a sky god who is at the peak of his fighting spirit!"

This news was a big blow to Gu Xiaoman.

In the past few years, Gubao and Nanzhou have been in a "tug of war", and everything seemed to be stable, which gave her the mentality of "why not take two more steps forward".

But Meng Xizhou's words poured cold water on her.

"You mean...we have lost the battle between gods?"

Gu Xiaoman's voice suddenly became hoarse.

"yes."

Meng Xizhou admitted this fact openly. She looked at the little girl in front of her who was a little lost and said softly: "The reason why I don't step into the Tower of Source is because I know...Mr. Bai Shu is using his life to delay time. Once When the new throne of gods intervenes on the battlefield, what I will face is a brand new battle between gods. I must be confident enough to challenge Qingwu alone before I can step into the realm of Central Continent!"

Gu Xiaoman shook his head desperately and asked in a cold voice: "No one can see the scenes that happened in the Tower of Source. How can you... be sure that Mr. Bai Shu and the others will lose, they have already lost!"

In her opinion.

The sooner we intervene on the battlefield, the sooner we can save Mr. Bai Shu!

"Because. I really saw the picture of the future."

Meng Xizhou spoke regretfully.

She waved her hand and summoned a pillar of light. Beyond the pillar of light was the quiet Red Lake. At this moment, the water on the other side of the pillar of light rolled back, revealing an ancient library sunk at the bottom of the Red Lake. The 【Forbidden Library】 was a blessing left by fate. In a sense, this is a special existence that transcends "artifacts". Here, Meng Xizhou saw through the conspiracy of the "Deep Sea" and also broke the iron rule that "fire" cannot be looked directly at.

"Concerning the Battle of the Gods at the Tower of Origin that I mentioned, do you want to go to the Forbidden Library to take a look?"

Meng Xizhou sat on the seat of light and asked seriously: "If you want to see it, I can give you this opportunity."

"..."

Gu Xiaoman fell silent.

She looked at Master Baixiu, who shook his head at her with a complex expression, the meaning in his eyes was self-evident.

Obviously.

Bai Xiu has already been to the Forbidden Library and personally confirmed what Meng Xizhou said about the "future".

"So, we have to wait a little longer."

Meng Xizhou's voice echoed in the hall.

"But……"

Gu Xiaoman's heart was full of unwillingness: "What are we waiting for? How long do we have to wait?"

"When you complete your true transformation and make up your mind, you will definitely break through that tower."

Meng Xizhou's answer surprised Gu Xiaoman.

She felt like she was being illuminated by thousands of lights.

What is true transformation?

She can already hunt the gray dragon alone. She has long wanted to break through the tower, but why... she still has to wait? !

"Of course, you're not the only one I'm waiting for."

Meng Xizhou stood up from the throne and said in a gentle voice: "Wait for Mr. Baixiu to find the thunder silent in the lake of his heart. On that day, Xizhou will personally hold the sword of light, cut through the endless clouds, and save thousands of lives in the five continents. , and decide life and death with Qinglong."

There was one more thing that Meng Xizhou didn't say.

What she was waiting for was not just Gu Xiaoman, nor just Bai Xiu.

She was waiting for the wisp of fire that disappeared into the endless void to return to the Five Continents.

In the revelation of the fate of the Forbidden Library, she saw the evil spirits in the world gathering into thousands of miles of dark clouds, which were eventually shattered into pieces by a big snake. The man, wrapped in countless brilliant flames, descended into the world...

If... that person was there in the final battle with Qinglong.

Then this battle will definitely be won!
