Quick Wear: Welcome to the Crazy Scene

Chapter 198 The King’s Sacrifice (22)

Shen Jin arrived in the capital as scheduled three days later and, under Luo Shou's arrangement, moved into Xiangshan, the royal estate that once belonged to Luo Ji but was later forcibly expropriated by Luo Shou.

Shen Jin's arrival made the capital much quieter, adding to the tense feeling of a tense situation. Of course, she herself did not feel that way.

She held a banquet on the top of Xiangshan Mountain, without any recognition of them as mortal enemies.

"The people of Luo Dynasty seem to hate me to the core, but in fact, they are quite friendly."

Shen Jin sat in the main seat and informed his entourage to replace the dishes on the jade table.

"Look, five waves of people have left."

She seemed to be speaking to the air, and raised her glass to the void: "Your Majesty, seeing your own ministers eager to visit me, your mortal enemy, how do you feel?"

Luo Shou knew that he couldn't hide it from her, so he sat down opposite Shen Jin without hesitation.

The entourage lowered their heads and looked down, as if they could not see the Daluo Emperor.

Luo Shou picked up the chopsticks and asked, "Is this table prepared for me?"

Shen Jin smiled and said, "Your Majesty is truly generous."

He poured her a glass of wine, which floated in mid-air and landed in front of Luo Shou.

"I haven't seen Marshal Xiao for a long time. Did you detain him?"

Luo Shou shook his head: "He doesn't want to see you."

Shen Jin just chuckled and put Xiao Jiangran aside for the time being.

It's best that he's not here.

"How does it feel?"

Shen Jin casually stabbed Luo Shou in the back: "You personally cultivated your confidants and replaced your right-hand men in the court. But the group of people you worked so hard to replace betrayed you without a word and stood against you."

"Listening to them begging me to join forces, isn't it painful to kick you down?"

Luo Shou was silent.

He just gripped the wine glass tightly, his fingertips turning white.

She asked in a hoarse voice, "Is it you who did this?"

Shen Jin denied it, straightened the corners of his mouth, and felt a little unhappy: "No."

Luo Shou drank the wine in the cup in one gulp: "That's fine."

"They betrayed me, so I just killed them and trained them again."

She looked at Shen Jin: "I can hear the call of Daluo's people. They will not betray Daluo."

Shen Jin didn't reply.

The yellowish liquid in the glass had just begun to ripple when she drank it all in one gulp.

"I think you've already discovered this. When your loyal subjects gain power, they tend to forget. Pushed to high positions of management by you, they become new Daluo termites."

"You've cleared out this group of people at least three times already." Shen Jin put down his wine glass. "I didn't know you had such patience."

Luo Shou glanced at the served dishes. They were all Xiao Jiangran’s favorites. How could this guy be so blatant?

She looked around and chose to fill her own glass: "You are really thoughtful."

Shen Jin understood: "You don't have any favorite food." If you don't have any favorite food, it doesn't matter what you eat. It's better to follow Xiao Jiangran's advice.

Doesn't she know her yet?

Luo Shou drank the wine again. She really didn't like it much, just like drinking now, she just felt the need to drink.

"It's not difficult. They betrayed me and Ronaldinho, so I just need to replace them with a new group of people."

Shen Jin looked at her: "But this is an unsolvable cycle."

After all, that's the rule.

Luo Shou said seriously: "I can kill until Daluo no longer needs an emperor or officials."

Shen Jin: ...

Thank you for your hard work, tyrant.

"If you really care about your people, why not just surrender..."

The Luo Dynasty has this rule, but her Xi Dynasty does not.

"No." Luo Shou interrupted Shen Jin, she just emphasized: "I won't let Daluo disappear."

Even if there is only one person left, Daluo is still Daluo.

After Shen Jin appeared, Luo Shou reflected on herself for the first time. Does she hope that Da Luo will be well?

That is inevitable.

She works diligently, appoints the right people, and cleans out the corrupt. Take the prime minister, for example. That same persona has been replaced three times.

But no matter who she chooses, the person who sits on the position of prime minister will become a traitor who colludes with the Western Dynasty and tries to erase the name of Daluo.

But as Shen Jin said, is she really concerned about the people of Daluo?

Luo Shou hesitated.

She had to admit that she cared more about the continuation of Daluo than the lives of the people of Daluo.

As mentioned before, she can kill until the people of Daluo can live normally without the power class.

Luo Shou reflected on himself for a rare time and realized that this obsession was indeed abnormal and not like that of a normal emperor.

But the reason why obsession is obsession is that it cannot be let go.

Luo Shou even forgot where her obsession came from, but she knew that she was willing to spend her entire life to implement this sentence.

Shen Jin put down his wine glass and looked at Luo Shou in silence.

Sometimes, I can't even empathize with my former self. Shen Jin feels this deeply.

For example, now, I just feel that Luo Shou’s persistence is hopeless.

It's obvious that the problem can be solved by simply giving up Daluo and rebuilding the country with a new name, but why is it so troublesome?

Sure enough, he couldn't be led astray by Xiao Jiangran, so he really suspended his original plan and tried to reconcile with Luo Shou.

It seems that the only option is to kill him.

Shen Jin is ready to make a move.

She raised her hand, and the invisible air stagnated at her fingertips. Killing herself was a cruel thing to think about.

Especially when the other party is the other half.

But if you really want to do this, it's not difficult at all. Shen Jin carefully analyzed her emotions and found that they were no different from usual.

Luo Shou seemed to sense something and raised his head to look at Shen Jin.

"You want to kill me."

Even facing an inhuman force, Luo Shou remained calm. She seemed certain: "You can't kill me."

Only Shen Jin can kill Shen Jin.

"is it?"

Shen Jin curled his lips.

If it were her old self, she wouldn't be able to do it. But now she can. After all, she's been pretending to be someone for so long, so she can sense emotions.

She even felt that the reason she came back here was to completely kill her other half who was here.

In order to escape from the abyss of night, he was separated from his other half because he was unable to do so.

The high-level energy collision manifested in the real environment is like the end of the world.

That night, the stars fell. The seemingly infinite distance between heaven and earth was squeezed, shattered into cracks. Countless lives were swallowed by the cracks, and this was the most unspeakable thing.

On the top of Xiangshan Mountain, where the two energies collided, two semicircles like vacuum appeared in reality.

However, the round table that was the first to be affected was completely stable, and even the wine did not sway at all.

"Why did it happen so quickly?"

Xiao Jiangran's clothes were still a little disheveled. The people in Qiguang Hall attacked him like crazy. He was careful not to hurt them, so it was difficult for him to dodge.

The closer it gets to this time, the more normal we should be.

Be gentle and blend into their energy field gently, then clear and peel them away.

"Depend on!"

That was the theory, but when he actually entered, he still felt suffocated.

The difference in levels requires him to give his all just to enter.

In reality, Xiao Jiangran seemed to be strolling in the garden, holding chopsticks, bending down, picking up a red ball of unknown substance, and putting it into his mouth.
