I heard that the emperor had a cub

"Changqing?"

Because the doubts in his heart were getting stronger and stronger, Xuan Zhao couldn't help calling the other party's name again.

Hearing his voice, Changqing finally recovered from his stupefaction, and then laughed.

It wasn't the gentle smirk that people usually deal with, but rather natural, even for Xuanzhao in the past, it was a real smile that was quite rare.

Faced with Chang Qing's smile at this moment, Xuan Zhao was even more convinced of the judgment in his heart.

Although the person in front of him looks like the Chang Qing that Xuan Zhao is most familiar with on the outside, but inside he has completely changed. Who is this?

Xuan Zhao pretended to lower his eyes inadvertently, staring at the palm of his left hand.

According to what Xuan Zhao said before entering the formation, the runes in their palms can help them judge each other's positions and whether the person in front of them is real or an illusion.

However, when Xuan Zhao carefully observed the appearance of the rune, he found that the rune did respond to Chang Qing in front of him.

Rune told him that this is the real Changqing.

And Xuanzhao looked at him, who had been holding Changqing's right hand tightly since he stepped into the formation, which indeed proved that the person standing beside him at this moment was indeed Changqing.

But there seems to be something wrong.

Just when Xuan Zhao was hesitating, Chang Qing beside him made a sound, and he said to Xuan Zhao: "Why did you come, I have been waiting here for you for a long time, even the hot tea is cold."

His tone was a little aggrieved, and even a little deliberately coquettish.

It seemed that it wasn't him who showed that complicated expression just now.

This is definitely not the usual tone of Changqing. It doesn't sound like a true god who has lived alone for more than 20 years, but like a carefree and pampered young master.

But what is he talking about?

"What tea?" Xuan Zhao asked puzzled.

Almost at the same time as he asked this question, Xuan Zhao suddenly found that the scene in front of him had changed. The desolate building wreckage had now turned into a beautiful pavilion, and the platform they were going to was now. From time to time, it also turned into a garden with lush leaves. Light purple flowers are dotted among the branches, floating down one after another, and the petals are all over the ground. On the stone table in front, there are delicate tea sets, two cups of tea Placed in front of the stone bench, there is no heat left.

Xuan Zhao was led by Chang Qing to go there.

What exactly are you doing now?Why did Changqing say such words suddenly, and what happened to the scene here?

It's not like the reappearance of the past that Yunping and the others said, but something extra out of thin air.

Full of doubts, Xuan Zhao followed Chang Qing and sat down at the table. After taking a sip of the tea, he realized that it was really cold.

Xuan Zhao glanced at Chang Qing who was full of interest in front of him, and couldn't help asking: "Compared with drinking tea, don't you like drinking wine more?"

Changqing is addicted to alcohol. He has drank all the wines that can be named in the entire God Realm. The wine he likes most is the wine given by the Dragon King of the North Sea. Xuanzhao drank together, sometimes alone, sitting by the window holding a wine glass, because the true god is powerful and will not get drunk, so he can often drink for several days.

Xuanzhao loves to drink tea, so he often brings Changqing with him and drinks tea instead.

However, when Xuanzhao asked this question, Changqing showed a puzzled expression: "Drinking? Those wines are bitter and astringent. I don't like them."

do not like?

Xuan Zhao frowned slightly, and then heard Chang Qing continue to say: "By the way, let's go to the top of Wanling later to have a look. I heard that the flowers bloom there recently and the scenery is very nice. You should also want to go out and relax." ?”

Xuan Zhao: "..."

He was already sure at this moment that everything in front of him was an illusion, and the only real thing was Changqing, but Changqing seemed to have been changed by the illusion, which was far from his usual self.

It looks like it has become the heart of a teenager?

Xuan Zhao was still thinking about this, Chang Qing asked again, "Xuan Zhao? Why didn't you speak again?"

Xuanzhao regained his senses, not wanting Changqing in the illusion to see anything, so he said, "Sorry, I was thinking about something."

He began to want to know what kind of illusion Changqing and he were in, and what they would encounter if they followed the development of this illusion.

Chang Qing was still talking about going out with great interest, so Xuan Zhao nodded and said: "Then go and have a look, you will lead the way."

It just so happens that he also wants to see what the top of the Ten Thousand Ridges looks like in this illusion.

On the way there, maybe you can meet other people.

After Xuan Zhao agreed, Changqing took him out of the courtyard and flew towards the top of the ten thousand mountains.

Xuanzhao followed Changqing, observing the surrounding environment all the time. The ancient fairy world looked intact in this maze, and all the damaged buildings had returned to their original appearance, and even some places had many more places that had never been seen before. scenery.

What makes Xuanzhao feel different is that after leaving the range of the ancient fairy world and coming to the current range of the gods, he found that the palace towers that should have been in the gods had completely disappeared, looking around empty, even the past All the gods have disappeared.

It seems that there are only Xuan Zhao and Chang Qing in the entire God Realm.

Is it because of the relationship in the illusion?

Xuan Zhao tried to confirm this, and asked Chang Qing pretending to be nonchalant: "What about the others? Why didn't we see them all the way?"

Changqing didn't understand what he said: "Huh? What other people?"

Xuan Zhao said: "People from other gods."

The God Realm has never been so deserted, and it is even more impossible for it to be as empty as it is now.

Chang Qing listened to his words, but seemed not to understand what he meant at all. He frowned and said, "Aren't we the only ones here? Are there other people?" While he was speaking, his eyes suddenly turned to the distance , and then laughed again, "Stop talking about that, we're here."

Xuan Zhao and Chang Qing landed on the mountain ahead.

This is indeed the top of ten thousand mountains, but it is not like the top ten thousand mountains that Xuanzhao has just been to not long ago.

There are no traces of people living here, and of course there are no traces of fighting, there are no ruins of fairy caves, and there is no appearance of evil spirits taking root. It looks like a fairly ordinary wild mountain top, but as Changqing said , there is quite a beautiful scenery here.

Changqing took Xuanzhao to the edge of the mountain cliff, and with a wave of his hand, the sand and soil gathered into a beautifully carved stone table and bench.

"Just right, I also brought some snacks. I heard that the moonlight on the top of the Ten Thousand Ridges is extremely beautiful. How about waiting here until the sun sets and the moon rises?"

Chang Qing took out the pastry from the void with great interest and placed it on the stone table.

Xuan Zhao then sat down and asked, "Has the original cave here been dealt with?"

This was supposed to be Yunping's former residence. Although no one lives there because of the tragedy of exterminating the family, Yunping should not ignore it.

However, since this place is an illusion, anything can happen naturally, but Xuanzhao doesn't understand why this place appears in the illusion of Changqing, and it is also the top of ten thousand mountains like this.

Changqing held his chin, looked at Xuanzhao slightly, blinked and smiled and said, "What's wrong with you today? Why have you been saying strange things since we met just now?"

Xuan Zhao asked, "Am I weird today?"

Changqing nodded: "Yes, we have been together for so long, you have never asked me these questions, today you are very strange, like..."

He thought about it carefully, and it took him a while to think of how to say it: "It's like going back to 20 years ago, when the Three Realms just merged."

Xuan Zhao: "..."

A short sentence reveals too much information.

Although he knew that he was in an illusion, and what Changqing said in front of him was just his imagination in the illusion, Xuan Zhao was still stunned by the news, and he murmured: "You just said that the Three Realms... merge?"

The Three Realms of Gods, Demons and Humans have always been separated, even if there are occasional frictions, this is the most complete appearance of the world, and it is also the most balanced appearance that has been proved by the years.

The merger of the Three Realms is impossible and absolutely not allowed.

And according to Changqing, this happened 20 years ago.

Xuanzhao originally thought that the illusion he was in might be the memory of Changqing when the ancient fairy world existed, and what Changqing thought of him was just another Xuanzhao who once existed.

But now it sounds like that doesn't seem to be the case.

So when exactly did this illusion belong?Is it a false illusion completely fabricated out of thin air?Just Changqing's imagination?

Things became more and more strange, but in the face of Xuanzhao's doubts, Changqing seemed to realize that he had mentioned something he shouldn't have said, shook his head and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I forgot that you are always thinking about this matter, Jiehua didn't take action to stop the movement of the gods at that time, so it became like this."

Changqing's eyes seemed to dim a bit, he gently raised his hand, and gently stroked Xuanzhao's cheek with his warm fingertips, every movement seemed cautious.

"But don't torture yourself anymore, okay, this is not your problem, you have done nothing wrong, even if the world is barren now, you didn't kill those creatures, did you?"

Xuan Zhao listened to Chang Qing's words in silence.

Stop the action of the gods?The world is barren?

Xuan Zhao suddenly remembered what Chang Qing had said.

He said that he and the former Xuan Zhao were forced to be enemies of the entire fairy world because they prevented the great events of the gods in the ancient fairy world.

Now it seems that Xuanzhao and Changqing in the illusion did not stop them, so is this Changqing's imagination after that?

Just as Xuan Zhao was thinking this way, there was a strange movement among the bushes not far behind him.

Changqing lowered his hands, and looked at that side with some surprise: "It's strange, are there any living things here?"

As he was speaking, Xuan Zhao also stood up quickly.

Not because of curiosity, but because at the moment of this movement, Xuan Zhao suddenly felt the rune in his palm move.That is to say, there should be other companions around him.

Who would be here at this moment?Yunping?

Thinking like this, Xuanzhao followed the sound to the bushes, then he leaned over and pushed aside the leaves in front of him, looking into the green grass below.

A small blue snake coiled its body, was looking up at him with its golden eyes wide open, timidly.

Green snake?

Xuan Zhao was stunned for a moment, and at the same time Chang Qing also came over. He came to Xuan Zhao's side, took his hand naturally, approached and asked, "What is it?"

After finishing speaking, he also saw the little snake clearly, so he said curiously: "I never thought that such a creature would exist in a place like the top of the ten thousand mountains? How did it come here?"

Xuan Zhao: "..."

He didn't immediately answer Chang Qing's words.

Because he had already seen the rune engraved on that green snake, he would not admit it wrong, that snake was Yun Ping.
