Infinity Throne

this day.

When the morning light rises, the world changes drastically.

When everyone woke up in the morning, they heard a sound as vast as falling from the sky.

"Destined to return, the Human Emperor returns to his throne!"

People walked out of their dilapidated homes one after another,

Walking on the messy bluestone road,

They looked towards where the sound came from,

In the direction of Qingdu, I saw a colorful auspicious cloud in the shape of a dragon and a phoenix. The morning glow was like fire, almost like a fairy trace.

…

Xia Xiaoman kept crying and crying.

Everyone was watching Xia Xiaoman cry.

No one stepped forward to dissuade him.

Even though the commander-in-chief felt from the bottom of his heart that it was unseemly for a destined empress to cry in front of so many people, he could not stop her.

Although he could not sympathize with this kind of sadness, it was vividly exaggerated by the crying.

Visions from the sky surrounded her, but they seemed to have nothing to do with her.

Until the light and shadow dissipated, she was still digging the soil on the ground obsessively, as if she wanted to dig out Senior Brother Lin Yi from the soil.

Even if they are not alive, the dead can still be buried properly!

Even though Xia Xiaoman was a golden elixir cultivator, she forgot to use her true energy to protect her body and allowed the rough soil to grind her fingers to pieces.

Finally, Xia Xiaoman fell into a deep sleep.

After the war,

The Nanwang army surrendered one after another.

They have no reason to fight anymore.

This series of celestial phenomena drained away what little fighting spirit they had left.

The Human Emperor has come to this world, Xia Xingchen is dead, and there is no point in continuing to fight.

That is the Human Emperor, the Human Emperor destined by destiny, who can compete with him?

The sky is vast and the sky is vast, and destiny is the greatest.

Who dares to slander the human emperor’s fate given by God?

When Xia Xingchen ascended the throne, he also had the luck of the Human Emperor.

But Xia Xingchen was dead.

Many soldiers of the Southern King's Army secretly resented it. If Xia Xingchen had not died, would the world have become a little different?

Will their lives also have completely different situations?

But the reality is, there aren’t that many “ifs.”

The king is successful and the bandits are defeated, benevolence and righteousness are all gone in a blink of an eye.

Some people may have hatred in their hearts, but with Lin Yi's death, their hatred has no target.

Lin Yi killed many people, many, many, many.

Thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands.

There are already too many to count.

But at the end, Lin Yi used his life to carry all the hatred, blood and tears, and annihilated him in the world. He used his blood to wash away the lead and bring a new tomorrow to the Daqian Dynasty.

The Daqian Dynasty will also usher in a peaceful and prosperous era with the death of the great demon Lin.

…

Xia Xiaoman slept all night.

This night,

She had a dream.

In the dream, there were mountains, water, villas, gardens, and a crane next to it.

And... Lin Yi.

Senior Brother Lin Yi was surrounded by cranes, looking as if he were a fairy... barbecuing.

It was obviously a dream, but the smell made junior sister's mouth drool involuntarily.

"Hi, junior sister."

Lin Yi in the dream was just like when they first met at the Golden Temple four years ago.

At that time, Lin Yi was a high-spirited young man, and she was the eldest princess who had shaved her head and ran away from home.

Xia Xiaoman rushed forward.

In the dream, Xia Xiaoman cried and shouted, hugging Senior Brother Lin Yi and talking a lot.

Senior Brother Lin Yi just patted her forehead gently, poked Xia Xiaoman's heart gently, and pointed to that place.

"I left something for you, it will protect you for me."

Xia Xiaoman lowered his head and looked at the depression in his drum and Xia Fei's cheeks.

"You gangster!"

"Believe me, I will not die. One day, I will appear in front of you, riding on colorful auspicious clouds."

"real?"

"When did senior brother lie to you?"

"Hook!"

"Then it's agreed, when you reach the sky with your sword and no one can defeat you, that's when you and I will meet again."

…

No one noticed.

That night, on the roof of Yingxue Pavilion, there was a scarlet bat shadow, which flashed away.

…

After the war, Qingdu was reborn.

Many houses collapsed in the aftermath of the monks' battle, and rubble lay on the streets extending in all directions.

The Nanwang Army had its ordnance confiscated and was split into the Sixth Army, temporarily serving as servicemen.

Three hundred thousand handymen are strong and strong, and the dirty work of rebuilding Qingdu is not a problem.

Everyone's faces were filled with the joy of surviving a disaster.

Everyone knows that the war that lasted for several years is finally over.

After dinner, the common people were talking about the sorrow of the war.

Of course, these topics can never be separated from a man who can be called a devil--Lin Yi.

Lin Yi almost single-handedly caused a bloody storm in the world. In the end, he was killed by the human emperor Xia Xiaoman, whose real name was Tiannu, eldest princess and destiny. He was very happy.

…

The important officials of the imperial court who were supposed to be "assassinated" came back alive one after another.

It turns out that one night, they were all kidnapped in their sleep by a ferocious-looking assassin and trapped in a dungeon.

The location of the dungeon is in Chang'an Palace.

But this morning, the door of the dungeon opened on its own, and the old ministers walked out of the ground and saw the light of day again. Each of the courtiers burst into tears. When they learned that it was the eldest princess Xia Xiaoman who killed Lin Yi with a sword, and brought peace to the world. This evil man shouted "The late emperor appeared, God bless you".

When they walked out of the dungeon, they unexpectedly found that the once powerful empress dowager, Concubine Shu, died in the courtyard.

The death of Concubine Shu was mysterious and unpredictable, and ultimately added a significant dimension to the series of murders committed by "Apocalypse Assassin Lin Yi".

Anyway, that's it.

The courtiers were still there, and after a few days' rest, they resumed their duties.

The internal affairs of the Daqian Dynasty were re-operated, and garrisons were dispatched to various places, and every city was re-controlled within the territory of Daqian.

later,

Prince Xi, who was originally the King of Zhengbei and now became Prince Xi, was disheartened after learning what happened in Qingdu. He voluntarily surrendered his military power and became a monk in Ping'an Temple.

Dharma name: Chunhan.

In terms of seniority, he is Wang Xiaohu’s junior brother.

After Lin Yi's death, Wang Xiaohu was in unbearable grief. He recited the "Purana Sutra" for Lin Yi in the temple for eighty-one days without ever stepping out of the meditation hall.

…

half year later.

January 1st.

a new Year.

The renovated Jinluan Palace is magnificent.

Xia Xiaoman was wearing a dragon and phoenix brocade robe, a crown on his head, and light makeup. He was riding on a giant white tiger several feet tall, followed by hundreds of palace maids, as he climbed the stairs to heaven.

I saw that Xia Xiaoman's face had long been washed away from its former tenderness, and as he walked, the majesty of the emperor was beyond words.

The leader of Daqian, Xia Xiaoman, declared to the world in the presence of hundreds of civil and military officials:

"From today on, the eldest daughter of the Xia family, Zhenping, will fulfill the destiny and the people's will and ascend to the throne of emperor."

"I am the fifteenth generation leader of the Daqian Dynasty!"

"From today onwards, the new calendar begins, the first year of the Zhenping calendar, and the world is granted amnesty and exempted from taxation for three years!"

"I am, Emperor Zhenping!"

"I have ennobled the white tiger spiritual beast as the sacred beast that protects the country! Seeing the sacred beast that protects the country is like seeing the emperor!"

…

The process of the empress' ascension to the throne was extremely smooth.

Whether it was the popular sentiment, the wishes of the officials, or those who witnessed the vision from heaven that night, they knew that the empress' ascension to the throne was the general trend and destiny. There was almost no opposition to the entire process, even when it was revealed to the world. sound.

Lin Yi has done enough, enough.

Before he died, he paved the bumpy road for the empress to ascend the throne into a smooth road.

The second year of the Zhenping calendar.

Emperor Zhenhei burned history books and erased all the deeds of "Lin Yi" from history.

In the second year of the Zhenping calendar, June.

Emperor Zhenping the Great said that "the country should be stabilized through culture". Regardless of family status or qualifications, all those with great talents will be appointed to high officials and treated with generous salaries and courtesy. For a time, the imperial examination craze in the Daqian Dynasty was booming, and the people shouted, "Reading well and studying well are the only way to change your destiny."

Three years of true peace.

Emperor Jinhei the Great changed the national law, completely abolished the "vassal system", established the "provincial political affairs department", established the "provincial military affairs department", and then subdivided it into various levels, dividing military power and internal affairs.

same year,

Emperor Zhenping went on a tour to the south. He personally took Prince Nan's son and widow back to Qingdu, where he treated them with courtesy, taught poetry and the art of war. Later history books recorded this incident, saying that Empress Zhenhei "regardless of past grudges and has a heart as good as that of a sage."

In the sixth year of Zhenpingli, Emperor Zhenping encouraged the development of the shipping industry. She personally integrated the scattered Black Shark Gang and established the "Shipping Department", which connected Niuhezhou in the west and Buzhou in the south, and exchanged supplies with other countries.

In the tenth year of the Zhenping calendar, the shipping industry and smelting technology of the Daqian Dynasty reached their peak.

In the twelfth year of the Zhenping calendar, Emperor Zhenping discovered "black oil" and set up a well to mine it. Later, overseas countries successively discovered the magical effects of "black oil". "Oil fields" are springing up all over the three continents.

In the fifteenth year of the Zhenping calendar, the "black powder" production method of Nanzhan Buzhou was introduced to Daqian.

In the seventeenth year of Zhenping calendar, an inventor in Hezhou, Xiniu, invented the "Iron Ox Machine" by taking advantage of the effect of "black oil". It is said that when the "Iron Ox Machine" was in operation, it made a sound like thunder, carried tons of goods, and traveled thousands of miles a day. .

In the 20th year of Zhenpingli, Xuanmen retired and no longer appeared in the world, and the monks gradually became a mythical legend.

Thirty years,

Tools such as "iron chariots", "iron horses", "fire systems", and "thunder cannons" gradually entered the eyes of the people.

Later, some people gradually named the "iron cow engine" as "internal combustion engine".

"Iron Horse" is becoming more and more skilled in technology.

In the thirty-first year of the Zhenping calendar, the first pure fuel vehicle in history that did not require livestock traction was born.

In the fiftieth year of the Zhenping calendar, historians recorded that Emperor Zhenping was over seventy years old, with hair as silver as frost, flour like a child's face, and skin as white as snow. He could be called a "sage descended from heaven."

…

Fifty-two years of the Zhenping calendar.

The empress abdicated, and the sixteenth-generation king ascended the throne, named "Changyun".

It is said that Xia Changyun is the descendant of Xia Xingchen and belongs to the true royal family.

Empress Zhenhei abdicated on July 7th of the same year.

An elegant and cold woman with snow-white hair, eyebrows and eyes like clouds, dressed in white plain clothes, stood in front of an unnamed tombstone not far from the emperor's tomb.

No one knows whose tombstone this is, or even who this tombstone commemorates.

But the courtiers all knew that every year on July 7th, the empress withdrew from her surroundings and came here sadly, sitting alone all night until dawn.

At this moment, Xia Xiaoman no longer wears a dragon robe or a golden crown. After she stepped down from the throne, the majesty of the emperor faded in an instant. At this moment, she is just an ordinary woman whose youth has passed.

"Except for my gray hair, my appearance has not aged at all. Senior brother, why do you still protect Xiaoman like this even after you die?"

Xia Xiaoman gently covered her plump chest. She vaguely recalled the dream after Senior Brother Lin Yi's death, as if Senior Brother Lin Yi's finger was exactly there.

She would rather believe that this was not a dream, because she could clearly feel that when her heart was beating, there was a scabbard occupying that position.

That's...senior brother's scabbard.

"In my life, I will bring Daqian back to a peaceful and prosperous age. Xiaoman will live up to his father, Ji'er, and the people of the world. I, Xia Xiaoman, have no complaints or regrets." Xia Xiaoman looked in front of him with a smile. The wordless monument was shot out with a palm, and as the nameless tomb shattered into powder, a snow-white long sword hung in the air.

"I'm sorry, Xue'er, because you are stained with senior brother's blood, over the years, I have been unwilling to face you or... myself."

Xia Xiaoman moved her wrist and held the Frost Snow Sword in her hand after fifty years. She felt the blood connection on the Frost Snow Sword carefully, closed her eyes and remained silent for a long time.

After silence,

She suddenly turned around, lowered her head and smiled. There stood a cute kitten.

"Sister Chu Chu, do you want to go to the East China Sea with me?"

"Meow, I won't go." Bai Chuchu shook his head: "I promised the young master to protect you for fifty years, and now I'm giving you two years for free." Bai Chuchu stretched out her cat's paws, raised two of them, and said It means: You still owe me two years.

"Oh, the world is so big. If we meet again in the future, I will fight to the death if necessary."

"Then, goodbye!"

The clouds followed the dragon and the wind followed the tiger. After a gust of wind, the tiger pretended to be a cat and disappeared.

Xia Xiaoman shook his flying sword, and the sword flew into the sky, heading straight into the sky, all the way to the east.

From then on,

In Qingdu, there is no longer Emperor Zhenping or Xia Xiaoman.

The sacred beast that protected the country in the Daqian Dynasty became extinct in the world at the same time.

…

Three days later.

The coast of the East China Sea.

Fifty years ago, this place was just a small fishing village, but fifty years later, it has become a prosperous port city with a population of nearly 200,000 - Linxian City.

Legend has it that many years ago, there were immortals here, and there was a cliff named "Wangxian Cliff".

Xia Xiaoman jumped down and landed on the top of Wangxian Cliff. The terrain here was so high that it was difficult for mortals to reach it.

"The villain Xia Xiaoman, please forgive me and return to Tianjian Sect!"

Xia Xiaoman knelt on the top of Wangxian Cliff for seven days.

The wind blows and the sun shines, the rain falls and the clouds disappear.

Seven days later,

A woman with the same white hair suddenly appeared in front of Xia Xiaoman, who was still kneeling.

"You don't regret it?"

"Disciple has no regrets."

Xia Xiaoman didn't dare to raise his head.

"Why?"

"From now on, Xia Xiaoman pursues the Tao with all his heart. All he wants is to reach the sky with a sword that no one can defeat and prove the path to immortality."

"What a 'sword reaching the sky, unmatched by anyone'." The head of the Supreme Sect sighed, and she looked deeply at Xia Xiaoman who was kneeling on the ground: "In this case, your past life is over, and the fate of the past has been broken. Emperor Xia Xiaoman is dead. From today on, you are no longer Xia Xiaoman, but an ordinary monk from the Heavenly Sword Sect, and... my direct disciple."

"Disciple understands that he is willing to give up all the past and cut off the worldly ties with his sword. Please master... give me a name."

The supreme leader closed his eyes and meditated, and murmured to himself: "Someone once gave me an order. I will have two disciples in my life. The morning will be like frost and the dusk will be like snow." The supreme leader opened his cold eyes: "In that case, From today on, you are...Xia Ruxue."

Xia Xiaoman, no, the calm-looking Xia Ruxue, even though she had been the emperor of Daqian for fifty years, the moment she heard the three words "Xia Ruxue", she couldn't help but tremble all over. She had deliberately sealed it. Past events came to mind like a flood.

The next second,

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Xia Ruxue kowtowed hard...with tears streaming down her face.

Ah...ah...ah.

Xia Ruxue was screaming in her heart.

"Xia Ruxue...has met the master!"

It turns out that she is Xia Ruxue.
