Valkyrie Storm

Chapter 1996 Kneeling for Loyalty
In the eighth year of the Era, at the beginning of July, No. 40 days after the end of the war.

The outside world continues to be weird and depressing, and the Gonggu Mountains continue to be rainy and gloomy.

The devastated Zhanmeng is recovering quietly and steadily.

Outside, there are constantly neat teams wandering around the fringes of the Zhanmeng, trying their best to show their strength and deter the monitoring forces from all sides.

Inside, the scarred members of the temples gradually regained their vitality, woke up from the coma and retreat, and walked out of the pungent medicine jar.The seriously injured high-ranking officials were also able to move freely one after another, leaving their dark dorms.

The dilapidated Zhanmeng colleagues completed preliminary repairs inside and outside, and the damaged Chaos and Soul Seizing Array was reopened.

Everything is recovering slowly but powerfully.

The demon spirit clan's team did not leave immediately, but hoarded at the four gates of the Zhanmeng, and hid inside the guardian formation, assisting the Zhanmeng's guardian forces, showing a strong posture.

Tang Anhua and other marshals and high-level officials also stayed in Zhanmeng to jointly deal with possible emergencies.

In the early morning of this day, Tang Yan, who had retreated for nearly forty days, left the bedroom and went to the Cangsheng Hall in the north.

Yaoye, Nangong Prison, Immortal Phoenix, etc., all of them woke up from their coma and retreat one after another, left their residences one after another, and gathered towards Cangsheng Hall in the north.

Because King Ma Yan is about to wake up, after the news came out, all the top leaders of the Demon Spirit Clan gathered here today.

Zhanmeng executives all hoped to have a reasonable explanation why the demon spirits suddenly appeared here.

On the way to the north, Tang Yan, who was weak and tired, was riding three golden lions, holding the latest casualty statistics in his hand, reading it over and over again, his heart twitching slightly, and his eyes dimmed in silence.

He woke up 20 days ago and has been recuperating in seclusion, not daring to face the casualty statistics.

Today, it was the first time he held it, and it was also the first time he faced it squarely.

Even if he was well prepared, his heart still felt like a knife was twisting. Facing the shocking numbers and familiar names, his throat seemed to be stuck with a stone, and his chest seemed to be cut with force by a knife. accept.

Once relatives, once best friends, just because of a battle, became names smeared with ink and ink, lying quietly on the animal skin roll, lifeless, sad, miserable, no smile, no more Without sound, all the wonderful things come to an abrupt end, returning to the cold and dead silence.

Niya accompanied Tang Yan, but she didn't know whether to comfort her or not.

The golden lion was even more silent, and also full of colic.

Too many old friends died in battle and became the cold names on the animal skin scrolls.

They have already vacated a mountain forest in the south of the holy mountain. It has a large area and a beautiful scenery. It is used to bury and sacrifice disciples from various halls. Clothes, built an exclusive tomb.

It's just that not many people went to worship, and they all devoted themselves to the reconstruction and repair of Zhanmeng.It's not that everyone is ungrateful, it's not that they don't want to worship, but they don't have the courage to face such huge casualties, and they don't dare to stand in the endless tombs, for fear that they will collapse.

They hope to ease their grief while they are busy, and when they have cleared up their feelings in the future, they will go to mourn and say goodbye silently.

When the golden lion carried Tang Yan through the middle, Tang Yan looked back towards the direction of the cemetery and whispered, "Are they buried there?"

"It's all there, shall we go now?" the golden lion asked.

Tang Yan opened his mouth, but couldn't speak, as if something was blocked in his throat, he shook his head silently.He wasn't ready, he... didn't dare... Niya signaled the golden lion to go to the Hall of Cangsheng first, and don't rush to the tomb area. Not only are millions of souls buried there, but also heavy emotions are buried there. The voice and smile, and countless memories, unless you are really ready to face it, otherwise... once you touch it, it will definitely collapse.

She knew that Tang Yan would definitely go there, but it wasn't today, and she didn't need anyone to accompany her.

I don't know, they came to the Cangsheng Hall in the north, Zhu Jian, Immortal Phoenix, Ke Zunshan, etc., as well as Du Yang and the others, all came here ahead of time and were gathering inside and outside the main hall. The atmosphere inside and outside the main hall was very dull and weird, apart from the occasional scrutiny and polite etiquette, there was no real communication between the two sides.

"How's your recovery going?" Tang Chen got up one after another when he saw Tang Yan coming.

Tang Anhua, Tang Xindian and other demon spirit marshals and generals saluted Tang Yan one by one.

Some people in Zhanmeng were surprised again, while others vaguely understood something.

"It's much better, my recovery is faster than ordinary people."

Tang Yan's severe coma was due to physical and mental exhaustion. First, the Monster Spirit Clan incident, and then the Zhanmeng incident. The psychological pressure he endured was too heavy, and it was several times heavier than the energy consumed by the physical body. He really needed a special quiet period. to recuperate.

"General Ma is about to wake up, the third elder is with you inside, why don't you go in and check the situation first?" Tang Chen reminded Tang Yan.

For Ma Long and the others, this incident was too sudden and too shocking. It was tantamount to overturning the hatred that had persisted for thousands of years.

Tang Yan first made an introduction to everyone: "You should all know each other. I will explain the specifics after I come out. In short, we are a family now, one south and one north, reflecting each other and supporting each other."

"Don't worry about us, you go and explain to General Ma and the others first." Tang Anhua expressed a friendly attitude to Zhanmeng.

Everyone in the Zhanmeng side nodded one after another, and they did not show courtesy, but there was always something weird in their hearts.

It stands to reason that the sudden addition of such a super ally as the Demon Spirit Clan is definitely worth cheering and cheering, but there is an indescribable feeling in everyone's heart, neither resistance nor disgust, in short, it is not very comfortable.

Tang Yan packed up his feelings and walked into King Ma Yan's bedroom.

Both Nian Wuqing and Nian Wude were by the bed, guarding King Ma Yan.

Elder Tang Zhibai, however, looked like a sinner, kneeling on the ground for an unknown how long, his body was already stiff, his face was a little sallow, and his expression was trying to be calm, but he couldn't hide his painful expression.

Nian Wuqing and Nian Wude looked gloomy, ignored his kneeling, and looked at him indifferently.

Goodbye brother, I should be gratified, I should be happy, but because of the series of events such as the death of the year and the later rebellion, the brothers who used to be sincere, but after meeting again, they no longer have the kindness of the past. There seems to be a layer of separation between each other. Weak, obviously very thin, but no one is able to pierce it.

It's also that kind of indescribable feeling, and the faces of feminine people like Nian Wuqing and Nian Wude naturally become indifferent.

"Elder Zhibai, get up." Tang Yan walked past Tang Zhibai, wanting to help him, but he shook his head and refused.

"Wait a little longer." Tang Zhibai felt ashamed of them, and it was only natural for him to kneel down.

Thousands of years ago, they were full of pride, pledged their loyalty to the Demon Spirit Emperor countless times, and forged the strongest army group in the world with countless bold words.From the beginning to the end, Ma Long and the others abided by their oath, and they did not hesitate to feign death to hide, and they did not hesitate to bury the Ghost Dragon Army with their own hands. It can be said that they sacrificed everything.

But I was the only one who continued to stay with the Yaoling Clan after the death of the Demon Spirit Emperor, without any retaliation.

Even if it is now proved that Prince Cang is loyal and righteous, even if the act of revenge is a reckless impulse, many things between brothers cannot be measured by righteousness, cannot be explained by reason, nor can they be interpreted by right or wrong. Determined by loyalty.

And from the beginning to the end, Nian Wuqing and Nian Wude's indifference and speechlessness showed that they were disappointed in themselves.Arriving in the Lost Battle Realm, they have not contacted themselves so far, which also shows that they no longer trust themselves.

Tang Zhibai was ashamed of his previous vows and brotherhood, while Ma Long and the others endured unnecessary hatred for thousands of years.

So what if you kneel down by yourself.

Nian Wuqing was expressionless, and Nian Wude's finely groomed eyebrows were slightly clustered. Their femininity and ruthlessness were particularly strong at this moment, like two vicious poisonous snakes, which made people dare not look directly at them.

However, the two of them would not show their faces to Tang Yan, they were only dissatisfied.

"Young master, did you go to the Demon Spirit Clan by yourself?"

"You promised us that you can't go to the Demon Spirit Clan unless it is absolutely necessary, and you also promised that even if you want to go there, we should accompany you. You shouldn't go there by yourself so recklessly."

"I took a risk, and I promise there will be no next time." Tang Yan sat beside Ma Yanwang's bed.

The two shook their heads, this kind of guarantee was like drinking cold water in Tang Yan's mouth, one sip, and then drink again.

Tang Yan looked at Ma Yan Wang's calm but haggard face, this was the first time he looked at him so closely.He summoned the Blood Soul Tree and gently placed it on Ma Yanwang's chest: "Do you still remember that visit from Jiuying before I left Zhanmeng?"

Now the Blood Soul Tree has basically accepted Tang Yan, donating a little soul power and blood energy meekly, nourishing Ma Yan Wang who is gradually waking up, warming his soul, warming his blood vitality, carefully helping King Ma Yan woke up.
