Above all spirits

Chapter 222 Contact

But we can't blame them for that.

Ultimately, they were just ordinary people who never left the stars and lived in a certain area year after year. Although they had heard that the demons were ferocious, they only realized that it was not like that when they became demons themselves, and countless sad thoughts arose in their minds.

"Aren't demons and humans the same?"

"Nothing has changed as usual. Outsiders should understand, right?"

“We are victims too, we didn’t do it voluntarily.”

...

With the support of those around him who shared the same view, he gradually adapted and began to make plans for the present.

But Wan Wuhui knew very well that Canglan Star was just one of the stars in the human realm with a vast starry sky, and the idea that only those inside could understand it was just empty talk.

Those who are not demons will never understand; they will only regard them as ferocious demons, raise the banner of justice to drive them out of Canglan Star, and finally divide up the resources of Canglan Star.

If it were the Canglan Empire at its peak, there would still be a trace of its former self.

But now.

The Canglan Empire is weaker than ever before. Although he is not an insider, he was born a prince and his fame inevitably reached his ears. Connecting these events with today's incident, it is not difficult to guess the whole story.

Father Emperor has lost this game completely.

None of the twelve Black Guards survived, and the two Left and Right Dark Guards also perished. None of the fighting forces that were sent out to suppress the six major families returned successfully; they were probably all dead.

The royal family's current fighting strength is not even as good as any of the families that once existed.

“Your Highness, what are you still hesitating about? I am willing to lead the charge for you right now, storm into the Imperial Palace, and seize the throne. Your Highness, who was once decisive and efficient, is now so timid and submissive. This truly chills our hearts. How can we possibly trust you in the future?”

A disciple at the seventh level of the Holy Body stepped forward first, clasped his hands, and issued an "ultimatum" to Wan Wuhui. Unlike usual, this time, he did not bow.

Wan Wuhui could easily see this subtle change. His eyes flashed with cold light, and he wished he could raise his hand and chop off this person's head to make an example of him!

However, he was only at the sixth level of the Overlord Body realm, and if he asked Elder Xu to take action on his behalf, he would ultimately be a step behind.

It will also increase the distance between myself and Elder Xu. The identity of the protector has faded a lot after my father's death, and now it is more of a "sentiment".

He knew very well that this kind of "affection" was something that could be used or lost in any amount.

Suddenly.

A flash of golden light appeared in the hall.

"His!"

Although the sound of flesh being torn apart was not loud, it pierced everyone's heart like a needle.

This silenced everyone, who watched in horror as the scene unfolded before them.

"Boom!"

"Gulu."

"Gulu."

In an instant, the man who had just been full of momentum and resonated with everyone had his head fall off like a fruit with its stem cut off.

It slammed heavily onto the ground.

Then, the head rolled forward due to inertia until it slowly stopped at Wan Wuhui's feet.

The man's eyes were wide open; he couldn't believe he would die so suddenly, even in death.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

Everyone swallowed hard, and no one dared to speak up until the situation became clear.

Wan Wuhui felt a surge of joy.

Could it be that Elder Xu made the move?

That's the only possibility. I never expected Mr. Xu to be so considerate of me...

Before I could think any further, a clear male voice echoed through the hall.

"Second Prince, how come even your own dog is barking wildly at you now?"

"I feel a little lonely."

Wan Wu Hui's eyelids twitched violently upon hearing the sound.

Seeing the man who had suddenly appeared in the center of the hall made her heart jump into her throat.

Of course, it wasn't just him.

Everyone present was filled with fear.

Anyone who saw the battlefield at that time will never forget it!

Black!

Black hair!

Bloodshot eyes!

You can’t go wrong!

It was that very same person who overthrew the entire Canglan Empire during the day... who has most likely become... the current Heavenly Demon!!

Damn!

Didn't they say he had already left?!

Could it be...

Wan Wuhui took a deep breath, his palms sweating profusely, and forcibly suppressed the countless fearful thoughts in his mind.

If the Heavenly Demon wanted to kill him, it would only take a snap of his fingers; there was no need for him to stand up for him here.

There is only one possibility.

Wan Wuhui forced a smile, his battle-hardened facial expression control finally reaching its absolute limit at this moment.

"You're here."

"I have been waiting for you for a long time."

He immediately got up.

He gestured for Gu Yun to take the seat of honor.

He then raised his foot and kicked the nearest old man to the ground. The old man had once been an important minister of the court, but in Wan Wuhui's eyes at this moment, he was just a weak and powerless old man.

The old man was just an ordinary fourth-level Overlord Body cultivator, and he was also old. How could he withstand Wan Wuhui's kick? He instantly spat out blood and fainted.

But at that moment, no one dared to even frown.

Wan Wuhui naturally moved his seat nearby to make it his own.

Gu Yun chuckled softly.

"wait for me?"

"You knew I was coming?"

Gu Yun naturally knew that Wan Wu Hui had no idea whether he would come or not, otherwise he wouldn't have been so surprised at first, but he would give this impromptu performance a score of 90.

This is exactly the kind of Canglan Emperor he wanted.

This action caused Ling, who was following closely behind, to frown slightly. She seemed somewhat dissatisfied with Gu Yun's domineering and capricious style, but she suppressed her discomfort and remained silent to the side.

Ye Ying'er leaned against the door, slightly tipsy, not caring at all. She didn't want to force out this drunkenness with anger, as she had been quite tired lately.

Wan Wuhui's thinking reached its peak at this moment. By reasoning backward from the answer, it was not difficult to determine the general intention of the person who came.

"Of course, Canglan Star, or rather the Canglan Empire, desperately needs a leader, but as a Heavenly Demon, you cannot stay here indefinitely. At the same time, it is also difficult to win the hearts and minds of the people of Canglan Star. Suppressing them with tyranny is ultimately the worst possible strategy."

“You need a legitimate member of the royal family to work for you.”

Gu Yun lightly lifted his foot and sat down in the seat directly above him in the next instant, speaking calmly.

"I killed your father, how can you be so forgiving?"

Wan Wuhui sneered, making no attempt to hide his truest thoughts.

“You’re joking. There is kinship in the royal family, but not much, especially with someone like him.”

"In his eyes, there is only Wan Xingchen. The rest are just decorations for Wan Xingchen. If it weren't for this incident, no matter how hard I tried, I would never have been able to climb to that position."

Gu Yun casually replied with another meaning that Wan Wu Hui wanted to express.

"Don't worry, Wan Xingchen was also one of the root causes of this man-made disaster, and he has been killed by the people of the War God Temple."

He raised his finger and pointed to zero.

"Yes, this is Zero, the number one guard of the Temple of War."
