Am I the only one who didn't ascend?

When Wang Luo's name flowed over Mingzhou along with the scattered night, the time frozen by the arrival of the Golden Immortal began to flow again.

The flow began on the high platform.

The world outside the East City is still frozen in silence, but the people on the high platform seem to have emerged from the deep and dark sea and gained a chance to breathe.

Zhang Jincheng took a deep breath - even though his spiritual body at this time did not need to breathe like a flesh and blood body, the mental struggle made him want to dance.

When the man who claimed to be the Lord of Heaven walked forward and took the Deposed Immortal Record, Zhang Jincheng saw his face clearly. At that moment, a dark cloud seemed to be split by thunder in his heart, and he was suddenly enlightened and shocked. .

The late emperor... was actually the late emperor! Emperor Shengzong Gan Yinghua!

As the thunder flashed, Zhang Jincheng felt infinite absurdity again... As the Xinheng Imperial Master who had been in office for more than two hundred years, he had witnessed with his own eyes the rise of Emperor Shengzong from childhood to adolescence, and then to the throne as a young man. He also served him loyally for nearly a hundred years, creating a beautiful and prosperous era in which monarchs and ministers were in harmony, and immortals and mortals were harmonious.

Therefore, Zhang Jincheng once believed with full confidence that no one in the world could know the late emperor better than him. It was not until the Queen Mother received the imperial edict that she listened behind the curtain and took charge of the government as a delicate woman. Zhang Jincheng changed his confidence to: Except Yang Shijun in the world. Besides, no one is more familiar with the late emperor than him.

But at this moment, Zhang Jincheng felt that all the memories and cognitions in the past were like dreams and bubbles, and they could no longer be seen clearly... Back then, he personally sent the body of Emperor Shengzong to the imperial mausoleum, and used his own flesh and blood as the spiritual consciousness. Yin, leave an inscription in front of the mausoleum. However, at this time, the late emperor came back from the dead and took on the identity of the Lord of Heaven.

The Lord of Heaven... Oh, if it is the Lord of Heaven, then everything can be explained. For the Supreme Immortal King, who is almost omniscient and omnipotent, teasing a mortal national master is effortless.

Under the careless action of the Lord of Tiantong, Zhang Jincheng could not even recognize the face of the late emperor! So much so that when I saw the Master of the Immortal Alliance Lingshan Mountain that day on the Blood River, who was almost the same as the late Emperor, I didn't realize it at all... Even at this moment, the sadness in my heart was partly real and partly fake. , I can’t explain it clearly anymore.

Zhang Jincheng had thousands of words brewing in his chest in an instant, but he had no idea of ​​what to say... However, before he could say anything, he saw a stream of light passing by him.

In the blink of an eye when time resumed flowing, someone had already stepped onto the high platform of Qianxing, one step ahead of anyone else, and jumped up irresistibly, throwing himself into that person's arms.

"His Majesty……"

That thin voice belonged to the current Queen Mother Yang Shijun. This woman who had monopolized the government for decades and could be more ruthless than anyone else when she was ruthless, now showed all kinds of infatuation and tenderness, nestled in the arms of that "Wang Luo" and refused to raise her head again.

"Oh, this life has really been hard on you..."

"Wang Luo" shook his head and shrugged, stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and the time and space that had just returned to flow condensed again, and the whole world seemed to temporarily close its eyes for this long-separated couple.

——

Wang Luo opened his eyes in the darkness.

Strictly speaking, he never closed his eyes, so the person who looked the same as himself suddenly appeared from the void, then took the Deposed Immortal Record, and wiped out Shi Suying and the ancestors of the Zhenxi family who lived in his body. ...Wang Luo watched the whole process.

However, when time and space are still, everything that comes into view is like an illusion, making people "turn a blind eye". It is not until time and space resumes its flow that a torrent of information suddenly pours into the mind.

Wang Luo was dazed for a moment and felt an unprecedented amount of information swelling in his head, like a parasitic malignant tumor that quickly swallowed up most of his mental energy, making him even feel sick and nauseous...

"Oh, don't be in a hurry, digest it slowly."

A familiar and gentle voice sounded in his ears, and at the same time, a stream of clear water poured down from the top of his head, which instantly helped him clarify his thoughts and regain his consciousness.

Wang Luo was silent for a moment, looking at the Lord of Heaven in front of him, speechless for a moment.

The other party's attitude was frank and calm.

"Don't be nervous. This is just a conversation between spiritual consciousness. No third person will hear it. In reality, I still have to coax my wife. Although it is just a casual marriage in the mortal world for a hundred years, we have been husband and wife after all. A little separation is better than a new marriage. We still have to abide by the basic etiquette. So, I would like to take this opportunity to chat with you. You should have a lot of questions.”

Wang Luo immediately asked: "So, you are Wang Luo?"

The other party shook his head: "The word "cai" is not used well. It should be said that I am also Wang Luo."

Although the words were meant to comfort him, Wang Luo couldn't help but feel his heart sink. An idea that had been vaguely forming in his heart was finally confirmed at this moment.

"So, I'm just a copy of you?"

The other party couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Haha, so what?"

Wang Luo was startled when he heard this. The thousands of words that had been brewing in his heart suddenly disappeared at this moment. The next moment, he couldn't help but laugh, and shook his head: "That's a good question, so what? I've been busy with official duties recently, and I've been a little pretentious."

So the other party became even more joyful and reached out to pat Wang Luo on the shoulder: "That's right, whether it's genuine or imitation, it's just an acquired identity imposed by mediocre people from the outside world. It can never define a person's essence. As long as your heart is strong enough, what do outsiders think?"

"The chicken soup cooked by the Lord of Heaven himself is really delicious and rich."

"Oh, do you know this story: Our master Song Yijing swore to the Qiling Palace when he was young that he would never recruit any disciples. However, within two years of swearing, he met our senior sister Lu during a trip to the mortal world. Zhi Yao then reneged on his oath on the spot and accepted the senior sister as his first disciple."

"Oh? I've never heard of this. Is this knowledge exclusive to the originals?"

"Haha, then you are wrong. I only heard Lao Song reveal this secret from his own mouth when he fell. But let me tell you a story first: With Lao Song's nature of accepting death, the reason why he was willing to break the law back then Oath, guess why? Hint: It has nothing to do with senior sister's genius - for the old-fashioned and upright Lao Song, senior sister's genius has actually been a point deduction for a long time. "

Wang Luo couldn't help but be startled: "Since it has nothing to do with talent, it can only be related to appearance."

"Hahaha." Wang Luo laughed again, "Yes, senior sister often talks about this sentence, but in this matter, she actually guessed wrong at first. Song Yijing never cared about her Her beauty. In other words, he never cared about her beauty in the same way as ordinary men and women. The reason why he broke the oath was very simple: the senior sister looked very much like one of his deceased relatives. "

Wang Luo was even more surprised when he heard this: "Wait a minute, Old Song had a deceased relative who looked exactly like his senior sister!? When did he have a daughter? Isn't he a pure yang body!? Or are they the Song brothers? There is a sister down there? Wait, it can’t be..."

"Hahaha, you also thought of that 'it can't be'!" Wang Luo, who was opposite him, almost burst out laughing, "But it's actually true. Senior sister looks 70-80% similar to Lao Song's mother, and Lao Song A person as old-fashioned as Song Dynasty really values ​​filial piety the most..."

The laughter stopped abruptly at this moment.

Obviously, what happened next is really not laughable.

"But that's not the case. The person who is similar to Lu Zhiyao is a Biyu from a sideline of the Song family, named Song Ke. She is indeed somewhat close to Song Yijing by blood, and her appearance is similar to his Her mother is very similar to her - but not exactly like Lao Song himself. When she was young, she stayed with her master for a long time because of her talent. Song Yijing always regarded her as his sister and half daughter until he boarded the board. Lingshan often maintained correspondence with her and guided her in her practice. Unfortunately...you can guess what happened next. The jealousy of talents, the fate of beauty, and the momentary carelessness created eternal regret between the brother and sister. It was not until he met Lu Zhiyao that Old Song suddenly realized that God had given him a chance to save everything. Although soon the true nature of his senior sister was exposed, Old Song realized that she and Song Ke were completely different people after all. , but until the end, Lao Song had an extraordinary tolerance for his senior sister. "

When Wang Luo heard this, he couldn't help but be silent.

"By the way, Song Ke was born in the Song Family Fort and was Song Yuan's great-grandmother. Therefore, it's no wonder that Lu Zhiyao was so angry back then. But in any case, back to the topic, senior sister knew why she was raped by Song Yijing a long time ago In the photo, she even went to Songjiapu and set foot in Song Ke's hometown, and then scared many locals into thinking that Song Ke was a fake corpse... But she never doubted who she was as a meal replacement. No matter whether she discovered that the introductory skills taught to her by Song Yijing were tailor-made for Song Ke; or whether Lao Song later gave her the fairy sword that was originally intended as a wedding gift for Song Ke, she was still her, not anyone else. people."

After saying that, Wang Luo on the opposite side smiled and shook his head again, leaving Wang Luo time to digest.

Wang Luo digested it for a long time before sighing: "Master has never mentioned this matter to others... Tsk, that's right, this matter cannot be mentioned at all."

"Haha, yes, it seems to be human nature to say whether this matter is a big deal or not, but for Master Wuxia, it is almost the same as exposing his mental weakness. Speaking out will only cause trouble for himself. What's more, when Lu Zhiyao enters the mountain The latter's true nature was revealed, which made Lao Song regret it countless times... So how could he let more people know the truth? That would only damage the reputation of the deceased. The person who is very similar is just a distant relative of Song Yijing, but the person who is 70% similar to her is his biological mother. With the temperament of the senior sister, it is not difficult to imagine how she will use the topic to do whatever she wants, so this matter quickly became a mystery. It is top secret that Song Yijing’s original magical power ‘Zhewuxia’ was kept secret, and even the senior sister, who was an insider, was gradually kept in the dark.”

Wang Luo was silent for a moment and said, "But Song Yijing still informed you of this matter in the end... Could you please tell me, did he tell you voluntarily?"

"Well, that's a good question. As expected of me, my insight is really sharp. But to be honest, I don't know either." Wang Luo on the opposite side sighed when he heard this, "Although I was brought up by Lu Zhiyao, I was infected with her rebellious streak. But after all, I am not her, and I am not as lawless as her. I rarely do anything against Master, and I am even less willing to do it.”

"But you still did it." Wang Luo said coldly, "Back then, the Wuxia True Immortal Song Yijing gathered the power of the three great True Immortal families to condense the Immortal Law in his body. Then he deliberately died with his brother Song Yiming, destroying the Immortal Law and completely severing it. This plan should be foolproof, but the New Heaven still managed to survive and occupy Jiuzhou for more than a thousand years! This means that someone must have inherited Song Yijing's inner immortal law and supported the Heaven. Who is this person, but I didn’t expect it to be you!”

"Oh, of course you can't think of it. Even Lu Zhiyao didn't expect that the person who finally stood on her opposite side would be her most trusted junior brother. But if we say it's unimaginable, we really can't think of it. The Fall of Heaven At that time, the immortals were too busy to take care of themselves, and everyone tried their best to survive... After making great sacrifices, the survivors finally found a way to re-establish heaven... Then, at this time, someone suddenly She stood up and said that this road was unavailable, because the process of re-establishing the heaven would bring disaster to the mortal beings, and as a true immortal, she would rather bring ruin to the mortal beings than to maintain peace in the mortal world. Oh, who could have imagined such a thing? "

Wang Luo frowned when he heard this: "I would rather live in ruins... Do you think so?"

"Almost everyone thinks so, so she was isolated and helpless at first. The few allies she attracted were also a group of lucky people who quickly adapted to the environment after the catastrophe and survived without fear. Only those lucky people had the energy to listen. She talks about the principles of the new world. For most immortals who are struggling between life and death, her theory is too extravagant...and too selfish."

"I'm asking you, do you think so too?"

Wang Luo, who was opposite him, finally shook his head: "No, I knew from the beginning that the senior sister had no selfish thoughts, and her theory did have realistic weight: Although re-establishing the road to heaven can certainly solve the urgent need, it can only solve the urgent need. It's like drinking poison to quench thirst. Even if those immortals embrace the new immortal law, most of them will die early, so they will have to pay the price with a mountain of blood in the mortal world. The Immortal Law is barely surviving, so it is better to take this opportunity to sweep away the old troubles and establish a new path that is better than the Immortal Ancestor's sincerity. "

Wang Luo asked: "Why do you still want to..."

"Because I am only convinced of her sincerity, not that she is right. The story she described is too far away, and the cost of verifying its authenticity is too heavy. She did convince many people to side with her, but She has never been able to convince me. Maybe I learned too much about rebellion from her, but in short, these things are not important anymore. After thousands of years, she has proved that she is right. , and I was wrong. And then, as a price..."

While speaking, Wang Luo on the opposite side looked at Wang Luo seriously and said softly.

"I will die soon, and you will inherit everything from me."
