Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 913 The End of Loulan Volume (Part )

………remember………

After emergency repairs, he was barely able to treat others in the temple of Loulan.

The high priest of Loulan still held his scepter, dressed in a luxurious and restrained sacrificial dress, and looked at the person opposite with a smile.

Opposite her was Gu Xun, whose face was expressionless and his eyes could even be said to be cold.

"You'd better give me a satisfactory reason, otherwise, I don't mind helping the Demon God of War continue to do what it has not finished!" Looking at the high priest's beautiful and moving face, Gu Xun's tone did not contain any warmth. warning, or threat.

The reason why Gu Xun threatened the high priest was because of the request she had just made - hoping that Gu Xun would leave the Tears of the Goddess and Xiao Xiu Xiu in Loulan.

For Gu Xun, who still cannot accept Xiao Li's departure, Xiao Xiu Xiu and Tears of the Goddess are his most important memories, especially the latter represents Xiao Li himself, how could he stay in Loulan.

Not even if they are important to Loulan.

If it weren't for Xiao Li's thoughts and his disgust for Jiutian Xuannv, Gu Xun would have wanted to demolish Loulan City.

Don't tell him nonsense like expressing anger is inappropriate, he just wants to express anger!
  Facing Gu Xun, who was in a gloomy mood that almost blocked the sun, the high priest looked a little unnatural, but he still managed to keep his smile and said in a calm tone, "First of all, Mr. Gu, on behalf of all the people of Loulan, I would like to thank you Your helping hand during this great disaster.”

Gu Xun interrupted without giving any dignity, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm not interested, and I have no intention of saving you Loulan!"

With Gu Xun's interruption, the high priest's expression became even more unnatural.

It's not that she feels embarrassed or angry or anything, it's just that she's a little... timid, or to put it more bluntly, she's scared.

There's nothing you can do about it. The humanoid Gundam, which can defeat the Weapon Demon God head-on, is so angry that you're afraid of him!
  Suppressing the panic in his heart, the high priest composed himself and continued, "Okay, then I'll just talk about Ryuko-sama and the Tears of the Goddess."

"One thing I have to admit is that I do have selfish motives."

"Given Loulan's current situation, if we can't regain the protection of the dragon soul, it will really be unsustainable. Therefore, I, and Loulan as a whole, need Lord Longzi."

In response, Gu Xun just emphasized expressionlessly, "This has nothing to do with me."

"I know." The high priest calmed down a little, nodded gently, and suddenly changed his tone and asked, "But the matter of Xiao Li has something to do with you, Mr. Gu, right?"

Gu Xun narrowed his eyes and replied with his unkind expression, "What do you mean?"

The high priest explained in detail, "I misunderstood Xiao Li as a descendant of Jiuli before. It was indeed my fault. Now I finally understand that she should be the incarnation of the tears of the goddess, an elf carrying the will of the goddess, right? ?”

Hearing the high priest mention the so-called will of the Nine Heavens Xuannv, Gu Xun's face became more and more ugly. He gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words, "Continue!"

The high priest turned around, faced the rising sun in the sky, walked slowly and said, "There is a beautiful legend in Loulan."

"When the Crescent Lake in the desert turns into a full moon, no matter how long we have been apart or how far apart we are, we will definitely reunite again."

Gu Xun replied in a cold voice with a dull expression, "I can blow up the waning moon-shaped lake below into a full moon right now!"

"Uh..." Gu Xun choked like this, and the high priest almost lost his ability to speak.

I know you are strong, but can you please be a little more reasonable?
  After reorganizing the words, the high priest continued to explain with an increasingly reluctant smile, "This legend actually refers to the tears of the goddess."

"As the incarnation of the Tears of the Goddess, Miss Xiao Li does not have the concept of death. It is just that the divine power accumulated in the Tears of the Goddess has been exhausted. When the divine power is fully charged again, she can return to this land. "

Of course, this process is estimated to take hundreds of years. At that time, let alone people, whether your tomb is still alive or not is a different matter.

Naturally, the high priest did not dare to say these words, but secretly cursed in his heart.

Gu Xun tilted his head and replied coldly, "I know this."

"Mr. Nagu, do you know that the power of Tears of the Goddess can be restored only by staying in Loulan?" The high priest finally revealed the most fundamental reason for her request, or should be said to be the most powerful... bargaining chip. "Huh!?" Gu Xun's pupils shrank and his face became a little solemn.

The high priest continued at this time, "Even as a believer of the goddess, I have to admit that the glory of the gods has gradually dissipated from the earth. Only Loulan is the last piece of paradise protected by the goddess."

"This is also the only place where the Tears of the Goddess can shine again."

"And the dragon soul, which is also a legacy of the goddess, can facilitate this process."

Gu Xun's eyes flickered several times, and finally he confirmed with a threatening tone, "Are you sure you're not talking nonsense?"

The high priest responded calmly, "I'm sure!"

"Maybe if Mr. Gu takes away the Tears of the Goddess, Xiao Li can still come back, but I believe that the time required will definitely be many times longer than staying in Loulan."

"Keeping Lord Longzi and the Tears of the Goddess behind is the best choice for Loulan and Mr. Gu."

Gu Xun thought for a long time and felt that the high priest should not dare to lie to him, but he was not sure.

You said that this is the paradise of Jiutian Xuannv’s last refuge, but facing the Demon God of War, don’t you have to rely on Xiao Li and Xiao Xiu Xiu?

After struggling for a long time, Gu Xun finally had to adopt the final confirmation method——

He bent down and squatted down, picked up the little Xiu Xiu that was spinning around his feet, and raised it in front of his face, making each other look at each other.

"Xiao Xiu Xiu, tell me, is what she said true or false?"

Little Xiu Xiu was caught off guard and looked confused.

I'm just a kid who doesn't understand anything. Can I know what's true and what's false?
  However, looking at Gu Xun's earnest look, the extremely intelligent little Xiu Xiu still nodded hesitantly.

Probably...it's true, after all, that two-legged beast also has an aura that I like very much.

After getting a positive answer from Xiao Xiu Xiu, Gu Xun finally made a decision. It wasn't that he really believed in this dog, but he was just giving himself a reason.

Gu Xun looked at Xiao Xiu Xiu and warned, "From now on, you will stay here and accompany your sister, Xiao Li."

After saying that, Gu Xun put the little Xiu Xiu back on the ground. At the same time, he reached out and took off the Tears of the Goddess that had lost its luster hanging around his neck, and handed it to the high priest.

"I'll give it to you. I hope you didn't deceive me. Otherwise... you won't be able to afford the price!"

The high priest pursed his lips and smiled, "Don't worry, Mr. Gu, you are Loulan's benefactor, and I will not treat you in a deceptive way."

"I hope so." Gu Xun glanced at the high priest for the last time, turned and left.

Also left Loulan.

………Now………

"If you stay in Loulan, you have a reason to stay in Loulan," Gu Xun pursed his lips and smiled, without explaining too much to Wei Zhuang.

Wei Zhuang didn't care, he just changed the topic. Gu Xun didn't say anything if he didn't want to.

"Okay, there's no need to think about Loulan's matter anymore. It's all in the past, and it will never have anything to do with you and me again." Gu Xun sighed softly, and finally said with a smile, "Our next focus is still on the empire. matter."

As Gu Xun's words fell, the outline of Fengsha Town quietly emerged in the yellow sand in the distance.
