Barrier of Light

Starlight falls on the streets of Guangming City.

The parade crowd looked up to admire the rare starry night. Su Ye's forehead was covered with sweat. He flew over the eaves of Guangming City and ran towards the "secret prison" as fast as possible.

The moment the conversation between the two Chengnan people ended, Gu Nanfeng disappeared without a trace.

When he arrived at the secret prison, a narrow gap had been opened in the [Holy Light Barrier] by Lan Qi... The heavy-armored attendant at the entrance of the secret prison had been knocked down.

The two heavy doors of the secret cell were both shattered.

Su Ye stood silently in front of the secret cell. He knew that there was no need to continue checking here...

After a while, he came to a dark alley.

The wind mixed with fishy smell blew by.

A thin body lay on the wheelchair, the skirt of his clothes was broken, and the flesh and blood under the clothes was also minced.

Yao Jin is dead.

On both sides of the stone walls of the alley, the hot blood had been blown cold by the wind.

Su Ye also felt a chill on his back.

He had no sympathy or compassion for this "colleague" whom he had grown up with since childhood.

But what really scared him...

It was the ultimate speed displayed by Gu Nanfeng!

In the realm of Xizhou, he had met several extraordinary people with [Lanqi] ability. He knew that the speed blessing brought by this ability was very impressive... but he never imagined that Gu Nanfeng would be so fast. many.

"You're late, and more than one step late."

A leisurely and lazy voice sounded at the end of the alley.

Someone has been waiting here for a long time.

Su Ye suddenly raised his head and stared at the end of the darkness with a gloomy expression.

There was a wind blowing there, carrying scattered fallen leaves, beating against the dry alley wall, and the man holding a wooden knife slowly walked out of the darkness.

Su Ye was very sure that there was no one at the end of this alley before.

But after the wind came, the man came too.

Gu Nanfeng said calmly: "Don't worry, I'm not here to kill you... I just hope you don't return to Red Lake so quickly. If you are willing to chat with me here for a while, then I won't use the knife. "

Su Ye gritted his teeth and said word by word: "You were robbed in Guangming City, have you thought about the consequences?"

"Consequences? Do you mean the anger of the God of Light? This is indeed a very serious consequence..."

Gu Nanfeng thought for a while and asked, "But if he doesn't want me to rescue Meng Xizhou, then how can I rescue her?"

Su Ye was stunned.

"Everything that happens in the Divine Realm is approved by the Divine Throne."

Gu Nanfeng said calmly: "If he doesn't want to, I can't. In my mind, the worst consequence is nothing more than failure to rob the prison... But looking at it now, he doesn't seem to care about the secret prison."

"Besides, he doesn't seem to care about Yao Jin."

Gu Nanfeng glanced at the lone blood-stained wheelchair at the entrance of the alley.

He held the wooden knife and asked with a smile: "Maybe... he doesn't care about you either?"

Su Ye's heart felt even colder.

The secret prison has been robbed, and Meng Xizhou has most likely gone to the Red Lake. This is why Gu Nanfeng stopped him here...

There was such a big commotion in the secret prison, but there was no news about Jia Wei or the great elder.

Obviously, there was an accident on the Red Lake side.

He turned around and wanted to leave, but the long wind carrying the broken leaves swept through the streets in a mighty way, and Gu Nanfeng, holding a wooden knife, appeared in front of Su Ye.

A blazing golden light ignited in Su Ye's eyes.

He spread out his domain and flew quickly.

But no matter where he goes, there is always a gust of wind that lingers, leaving one step slower than him and arriving one step faster.

Wherever he landed, Gu Nanfeng would fall.

Wherever he went, Gu Nanfeng stopped him.

…

…

The surface of the Red Lake was filled with sparkling waves, and stars were shining in the zenith.

Gu Shen stood on the starry lake, stretched out his finger, and pointed at the heavy fog in the dark depths of the Red Lake.

"I want to go there and see it."

Of course, this sentence was said to Batu.

Now in the temple, only Batu can speak.

"What happened in Guangming City tonight should be worth what happened in the past few years combined..."

Gu Shen said seriously: "Before so many people gather in the Temple of Light, isn't the Lord of the God of Light ready to show up? Everyone should want to see the real 'light'. If the Lord of God is fine, even if he doesn't show up, say It should be okay to just say a few words and convey a few rays of will, right?"

At this time, this scene looks quite "familiar".

The Gu family envoys, night watchmen, and extraordinary beings from Dongzhou who were standing by the Red Lake looked a little dazed.

The time when Mr. Gu Changzhi was sleeping.

Dongzhou has also suffered such criticism... What Gu Shen said at this moment was what Dongzhou often heard back then.

"..."

Cold sweat broke out on Batu's forehead. These few minutes seemed as long as a century. He sent countless messages to the Great Elder and Su Ye, but received no reply.

The current image of Red Lake can be seen all over the world.

He has never experienced this kind of situation, and he has no way to control it.

After thinking about it, he could only give a vague response: "Sorry, you can't go."

"Why?"

Gu Shen was not angry or in a hurry. He just stood on the surface of the Red Lake and said with a chuckle: "I remember that the temple said before that standing on the surface of the Red Lake means that you have been recognized by the will of light. . The fact that I can stand on the Red Lake now means that the 'Light Faith' recognizes me. Is it because I killed Jia Wei that I can't step on the lake?"

of course!

The veins on Batu's forehead bulged.

If there was no recording from [Deep Sea], if he could beat him, he would be eager to tear Gu Shen into pieces right now.

But there are not so many ifs in the real world.

"of course not……"

Batu gritted his teeth and said: "The end of the Red Lake is the place of spiritual cultivation for the God of Light. If you want to set foot on the lake, you must follow the rules. You have not passed the 'Heart Washing Pool Trial' and the 'Fire Dream' in Xizhou." …According to this rule, you are not allowed to step into the Red Lake.”

There was a pause.

"The previous battle was an exception."

Batu said: "Now the grudge between you and Master Jia Wei has been settled, and this battle is over! Gu Shen, according to the rules of the temple, you can never enter the back of the Red Lake without the will of the Lord of Light. Half a paragraph, disturbing the purity of Lord God!"

After saying this, the tense string in Batu's heart relaxed slightly.

He knew Gu Shen wanted to go, but he couldn't stop him...

But there were millions of pairs of eyes staring at this place at the moment, so he moved out of the rules of the Temple of Light.

Makes sense.

If Gu Shen wanted to force his way into the Red Lake, he would have violated the rules first, and the "justice" represented by these millions of eyes would be on the side of Guangming City.

"I see."

Gu Shen nodded and continued to ask: "So, as long as you comply with the rules of the temple, you can step on the lake, right?"

"……certainly."

Batu frowned and responded subconsciously.

There is nothing wrong with this response.

But the next second, a very soft and soft voice sounded from the back of the crowd in Red Lake.

"In that case..."

"I should be able to set foot on this red lake, right?"

The crowd turned around in surprise, and the stars lingered, fell into the dust, and all fell on a woman.

The man's expression was still tired and dusty, and his body was also stained with some dark, damp, muddy smell.

But it doesn't stop her from appearing, as soon as she appears, all the brilliance in the world gathers together.

"My Lady Goddess!"

A Holy Inquisitor exclaimed and quickly knelt down.

"My Lady Goddess!"

There were exclamations one after another, and the Holy Judges behind the Red Lake saluted one after another. They had always thought that the goddess was at the end of the Red Lake, serving the throne of light...

After all, there are only a few people in the temple who know the true whereabouts of the secret prison and Meng Xizhou.

From the perspective of the outside world, this is also the case.

After Meng Xizhou appeared, the crowd roared and moved out of the way.

The faces of the Gu family delegation and those watching the night were first surprised, and then happy... Luo Yu and Zhong Fan looked at each other, sweating in their hearts, and finally relaxed at this moment.

The young master successfully robbed the prison!

Batu looked at where the bright starlight fell, his mind went blank, and in the end he could only squeeze out a stiff greeting: "My lord Goddess... why are you here?"

After saying this, Batu regretted it.

This greeting is actually pretty bad.

The goddess has been imprisoned in a secret prison. This secret is only known to the top officials of the temple... Of course Batu also knows it.

Seeing Meng Xizhou, he understood why Su Ye didn't reply to his message.

It was obvious that the secret prison had been lost, and both Yao Jin and Su Ye had miscalculated.

What Batu is most worried about now is that what the Temple of Light did to the goddess will be revealed tonight.

But thankfully.

Meng Xizhou just said four words lightly.

"Quiet and thoughtful."

These four words were the last face she left to this Guangming City and this temple.

Batu's eyes were complicated. He bowed slowly and said, "You... also want to step onto the lake?"

Meng Xizhou walked forward slowly and came to the shore of Red Lake.

She looked at Gu Shen and nodded slightly to express her gratitude. Gu Nanfeng rescued her from the secret prison. She already knew what happened before and after this "prison robbery".

Gu Shen just smiled faintly.

it is more than words.

He had met the Goddess of Light. At that time, his spiritual realm was still weak. Just by looking at each other, the fire of Pluto almost escaped his control.

But now, it's different.

Gu Shen re-examined the goddess of light in front of him. After being imprisoned in a deep prison for six years, the aura of light in Meng Xizhou's body became much weaker——

Obviously, the divine favor in her disappeared.

"When I was six years old, I passed the 'Heart Washing Pool Trial'. When I was fifteen years old, I successfully smelted the 'Fire Dream'."

Meng Xizhou's voice echoed by the Red Lake.

This sentence is meant for Batu and everyone else.

The temple can list countless rules that those who set foot on the Red Lake need to follow.

But Meng Xizhou complies with every one of them.

Because she is a goddess appointed by the God, and she is innately in tune with "light". If she is not qualified to set foot on this red lake, then who is?

"Now...I want to set foot on this red lake."

Meng Xizhou spoke very seriously. Her tone was not asking for advice, but making a statement: "I want to see Lord Divine Throne."

"..."

Batu wanted to refuse, but couldn't think of a reason to continue refusing.

Moreover, he had no time to refuse.

Because after Meng Xizhou finished speaking, he took steps and stepped onto the surface of the Red Lake.

"Buzz!"

The moment her toes touched the lake water, the lake water, which looked dim and dull under the starry night, suddenly became brighter. Thousands of rays of light flew out from the bottom of the lake and swept into her snow-white skin. She seemed to be covered in a blanket. A divine garment wrapped and woven with bright ribbons, the entire red lake became bright with her appearance.

Her complexion was no longer pale, and her eyes became solemn and sacred.

Even if there is no divine support.

She is still the darling of the light.
