Eternal Night

Chapter 85: The Immortal Guardian of the Nation and Emperor Hunzong of Song
Wu Xianxiao was warmly welcomed by all the people in the entire Bianliang city.

They took out the best food and the best clothes they had in their homes, even though they had just experienced war and devastation, and even though someone in their family had been killed or missing, at this moment, they took out their most precious things and showed the highest courtesy to face Wu Xianxiao.

Wu Xianxiao just sat next to the wild boar's head as if he was dying, and he was talking to Zong Ze.

"…I need to go back."

"Because I was badly injured. You can see that I was almost dying."

"...Don't come to me for court matters. I don't understand."

"...Don't ask me for military matters. I don't understand."

"Send someone to collect all the meat of the wild boar demons. Collect as much as you can. If you are not sure whether it is wild boar demon meat or human meat, burn it all. Oh, and I want the wild boar demon's internal organs and bones, too."

Wu Xianxiao struggled to stand up from the wild boar's head. His steps staggered, which made generals such as Zong Ze look sad.

They thought Wu Xianxiao was going to die.

In their eyes, Wu Xianxiao was not an immortal after all, but just a descendant of an immortal family. If any of them had suffered the injuries he suffered, they would have died instantly on the spot. The fact that Wu Xianxiao could still say so many words must have been a moment of rejuvenation.

As for the meaning of "going back", it makes them even more sad.

Zong Ze clasped his fists and said in a deep voice: "I dare not disobey your command."

Wu Xianxiao nodded, and looked up at the sky. He saw Jiujiu circling above his head. At this moment, it immediately fell from the sky and flew onto his shoulder.

The next moment, Wu Xianxiao and Jiujiu disappeared at the same time.

Everyone present was silent, and then saluted again...

Wu Xianxiao appeared in the hibernation cabin. He sat up from the cabin. This action alone made him gasp for breath.

“…It’s really embarrassing.”

Wu Xianxiao muttered something and slowly walked towards the medical base station.

The intensity of this battle was beyond his imagination. If he had not been called a common man, he would have been doomed.

But the first title is really amazing, it really suits him very well, it’s so powerful.

He even defeated the wild boar demon who had practiced Taoism for more than 300 years.

By now, Wu Xianxiao felt that he should be considered a saint and truly possessed extraordinary powers, right?

As he thought about this, Wu Xianxiao walked towards the medical base station with a dazed head. Jiujiu landed on his shoulder and rubbed his face affectionately with her head.

A man and a bird came to the medical base station. Wu Xianxiao lay down inside again, while Jiujiu watched from outside.

Not long after, Wu Xianxiao came out of the medical cabin without any injuries. He twisted his arms and body, and felt his consciousness a little heavy. Although his body had healed, mental fatigue came in waves.

In other words, it was precisely because his body had healed and the pain had been relieved that his mental weakness and fatigue were now evident.

Wu Xianxiao resisted the drowsiness and fatigue and returned to the hibernation chamber again. He lay down in the hibernation chamber and said to Jiujiu, "I want to sleep for a while..."

When he finished speaking, he had already fallen into a deep sleep, and Jiujiu stayed on his chest and jumped for a while, then fell asleep with him.

Wu Xianxiao slept without dreams. He didn't know that the aura of the sleepless spirit in his sea of ​​consciousness was flickering and burning. During this flickering and burning, a large amount of black aura was filtered out of his spiritual consciousness and then poured into the aura of the sleepless spirit, turning into firewood for the aura...

It was unknown how much time had passed before Wu Xianxiao woke up. As soon as he woke up, he heard the sound of music. Turning around, he saw Jiujiu playing with a half-rotten music box on the ground.

This was a useless item that our predecessors had won in a lottery. It became useless after being piled up in the maintenance base station, but no one knew how this bird had dug it out.

There was no sound when Wu Xianxiao woke up. Jiujiu was so engrossed in playing the music box that he didn't notice that Wu Xianxiao had woken up for a moment.

He watched Jiujiu twisting the music box with its claws and clicking it with its beak, having a lot of fun.

Seeing this scene, Wu Xianxiao's heart slowly calmed down and was filled with a wonderful warmth.

He is lonely, very lonely.

After falling asleep in the familiar homeland of the 21st century, we woke up to the interstellar age, a horrible, twisted age where we could be killed by all kinds of monsters and weirdness at any time.

Wu Xianxiao has always been nervous and lonely.

He hadn't reacted much to the death of his predecessors, but the death of two teammates who had shared life and death with him was actually a huge shock to him. The negativity in his heart almost surged back, and he was almost entirely relying on the sleepless aura and death resurrection to withstand it.

But this battle almost made his depression disappear. At the same time, the scene he saw at the last moment, the struggle of those ordinary people for their homes, loved ones, and survival, as well as the scene of the little bird playing at this moment, filled his heart with peace and warmth.

"Yes, she really behaved like a child on the weekend. She is a demon, so her life span must be very long. Now she is just a child of four or five years old..."

Wu Xianxiao murmured, and his eyes towards Jiujiu became softer.

He slowly stood up from the hibernation capsule. The sound made Jiujiu look back. After seeing Wu Xianxiao, he flew to his shoulder with a cry and snuggled up to his face. Wu Xianxiao smiled and said, "Yes, there is really nothing here. When we go to a world with better technology and civilization, I will buy you some toys, okay?"

Jiujiu chirped happily twice.

Wu Xianxiao stood on the ground, and then he began to punch slowly, and then he punched faster and faster, until in the end his figure was so fast that only an afterimage was left. He punched like this for at least ten minutes. He suddenly stopped, put his palms together to form a circle, and then shook his hands. A powerful energy spread out from the center to all around, and even the Chirp flying in the sky was almost thrown away.

"It's done!"

Wu Xianxiao shouted excitedly, then laughed out loud towards the sky.

Jiujiu landed on his shoulder and chirped.

Wu Xianxiao nodded and said, "Yes, the Dan Jin is done. Although I have just sensed the Dan Jin and have not even achieved the goal of condensing the Qi and blood in the Dantian, let alone the purification of the blood and Qi throughout the body, I can feel and use the Dan Jin. The rest is just a matter of time and effort."

The chirps chirped happily, and Wu Xianxiao was also happy in his heart.

After waiting for a few seconds to calm down his happy mood, Wu Xianxiao said to Jiujiu, "Let's go to the Clay Buddha Yaksha Dream World first. I've had a good sleep and don't know what's going on over there. The key is the meat of the wild boar monster. It's a great tonic for me."

Jiujiu also started to chirp immediately.

"Yes, yes, the demon core is yours. The demon core is yours."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Xianxiao and Jiujiu lay down in the hibernation cabin again. Then they both disappeared at the same time and reappeared at the entrance of the north gate of Bianliang.

As soon as the two appeared, a sharp whistle sounded, and then a large number of torches flashed from the surroundings. Wu Xianxiao looked closely and saw a team of patrol personnel shouting.

The patrolmen were all armed, and in the light of the fire, they immediately saw Wu Xianxiao and his iconic bird.

Upon seeing this, the patrol officers immediately saluted Wu Xianxiao with great respect, and many of them excitedly told the people around them who the person in front of them was.

Fairy!

An immortal who slays demons and eliminates evil!
On the battlefield, he killed the northern monster with dignity, defeated the Jin army with his own strength, reversed the tragic fate of the Song Dynasty, and saved countless people in Bianliang City!

Not long after, the court, which was still in the midst of the arguments, also learned that Wu Xianxiao had returned. The most important thing was that according to the description of the patrol personnel, all his injuries had disappeared, and he was now bloody cutting apart the giant wild boar monster's head at the north gate.

In the court, there were rescued ministers, returning civil officials, excited military generals, and the emperor with a gloomy face.

What a beautiful picture of all living beings.

As the chief minister in the recovery of Bianliang besides the immortal Wu Xianxiao, Zong Ze was in a very dangerous situation after experiencing the court's attack for a day and a night.

Because the news that Zhao Gou had gone to Nanjing Yingtian Prefecture had been passed back to the court, and at the same time, news also came back that Zhao Gou intended to ascend the throne and become emperor in Nanjing Yingtian Prefecture, and the name of Zong Ze was on the first edict of his three requests and three refusal.

This is a political stance, and it is a political stance that will lead to the confiscation of property and the extermination of the entire clan!

If nothing unexpected happens, the returning Zhao Huan can directly wipe out the nine clans of Zong Ze, and Zhao Gou in Yingtian Prefecture will also be killed. Then all the civil and military officials named in the edict will have to die.

During the day and night since Wu Xianxiao disappeared, all the ministers had been waiting, and Zhao Huan was also waiting.

The life and death of Wu Xianxiao is the core reason for all these problems.

If Wu Xianxian died, then there would be nothing to say. Zong Ze would die, Zhao Gou would die, and countless people in Yingtian Prefecture would be killed as a result.

But if Wu Xianxiao were alive and came back...

Zhao Huan's lowered face was full of viciousness, but then it turned into boundless fear.

He was the one who witnessed it all.

His father, the high and mighty Emperor of the Song Dynasty, would be humiliated at most even if he was captured by the Jin people. Neither he nor his father was afraid of being killed.

However, Wu Xianxiao took his father's head in public in front of countless people. This is something that cannot be washed away.

The most terrifying thing is that this man actually challenged the northern giant monster and actually killed it! ?
It's incredible and hard to imagine. This is something that only immortals can do!
After the fear, Zhao Huan no longer dared to have the slightest resentment or hatred, because he knew very well that the throne could not protect his life. Neither the palace, nor Bianliang, nor the Song Dynasty could protect him!
He raised his head, his face had turned into a peaceful smile, and he immediately said: "I think what you said is reasonable, but at this time of national hatred and family feuds, at this time when the immortal has come to the world, it is still necessary to use severe punishment... Come on, capture him!"

The Praefectus Urbijnana in the hall stood up immediately. They would not have any misunderstanding and rushed past Zong Ze who was squeezed into a standing position alone and came to the front of the civil servants. In the desperate gazes of these people, they knocked off their official hats, tore off their purple robes, and then dragged them out of the hall.

Zhao Huan said to the eunuch beside him: "Announce it."

The eunuch immediately flipped over the imperial edict in his hand, put out the bottom one, and said loudly: "By the Heaven..."

"…The Immortal Wu Xianxiao is the national teacher, of superior rank, with a rank equal to that of a prince, and he shares the same responsibilities with the imperial court!"

"…brutal and immoral, incompetent, his temple name is…"

"Zhao Hunzong!"
