Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 1162 258. What the **** did I do 10,000 years ago? - There is no reason to add updates [13]

   The conversation with the Jade Lotus Gang and the powerful Lady Guo Ya in Pandaria went as smoothly as Blake had expected.

For the Jade Lotus Gang, which has many information channels, they know that the opening of the fog is only a matter of time. As the most ambitious group of evil men in the peaceful continent of Pandaria, they naturally started early to enter Ai Xerath prepares.

   At first they chose the Corruptor's minions.

   Not because of how good those cultists are, but simply because Mrs. Guo Ya didn't have a choice.

   And after the more dominant and more "sincere" Blake Shaw appeared, the Yulian Gang did not hesitate to abandon those cultists who were wrong.

   Mrs. Guo Ya's "family business" is just bad, and those cultists are hopelessly degenerate. The two forces are not on the same path.

  Since they have never been friends, then there can be no betrayal.

  The enthusiastic senior executives of the Yulian Gang also left Blake to have a hearty lunch with Zhou Zhuo, who met the world.

   As expected of a local snake in Pandaria, Mrs. Guo Ya directly prepared thirty-two dishes for the distinguished guests!

   This was because the stinky pirates came in a hurry and didn't leave much preparation time for Mrs. Guo Ya, so the prudent and mature Pandaren mature lady insisted on persuading her to drink and apologize, saying it was indecent.

   also promised to prepare a 108-course "Emperor's Feast" for Mr. Black next time.

   In short, Blake and Zhou Zhuo were very satisfied with this meal.

  After eating and drinking, Mrs. Guo Ya sent her cousin, Mrs. Guo Su, to lead the team in person, and acted as a guide for Blake to find the Yongchuntai Palace in the valley, which was shrouded in mist and protected by mist.

  The palace of Emperor Shaohao has not changed its orientation in 10,000 years, but the mist in this mountain is unpredictable like a labyrinth because it is close to the source.

   If the Jade Lotus Gang had not been rooted here for many years, they might not have been able to collect the laws of fog changes.

   While waiting for the fog to change, Mrs. Guo Su, who had offended Black before, also chatted with the smelly pirate to get closer.

   Although she and Mrs. Guo Ya are cousins, they are very different in age, almost the same as mother and daughter.

  Because her cousin is the patriarch of the family, she is very dignified, so Mrs. Guo Su has always been obedient in front of her cousin. Seeing that Blake can talk and laugh with her always-shady cousin, Mrs. Guo Su naturally dare not look down on the stinky pirates, and she also considers herself a junior.

   "Our family has been making war colossi for mogu emperors and warlords for as long as recorded, and is a true craftsman.

   It is said that my ancestors already mastered the method of making the sapphire colossus when the pandaren were still slaves before they were freed from the mogu. "

   In the foothills of the Mist Yarn Plank Road near the Misty Mountains, while observing the changes in the mist, Mrs. Guo Su boasted to Black about her family origins.

   These are what the cousin indicated that they can tell the "partner", so the pandaren lady who likes to wear red clothes has no pressure to speak.

Zhou Zhuo next to    was also very interested. He had already taken a pen and paper to record, using a new scroll with the title "Yu Lian Zhi" written on it. It was obviously a note dedicated to recording information about the mysterious Yu Lian Gang.

"When the first leader of the pandaren, the great 'Fist of Dawn' Kang led the slaves to revolt, my ancestors also resolutely gave up the good life and secretly joined the battle with the war colossus of the mogu. "

   Mrs. Guo Su said proudly:

   "Because of this feat, my family flourished in the last pandaren dynasty that lasted for thousands of years until Emperor Shaohao came to the throne, and the Jinyu's water-speaker prophets predicted a catastrophe.

  His Majesty the Emperor swore to protect his people, and my ancestors did their best to help. Later, His Majesty Shaohao sacrificed himself to save this continent. The panda people no longer had emperors and nobles, and my family was defeated.

   But the family heritage is preserved.

  My cousin and I inherited the knowledge of making sapphire golems. Later, due to some changes, we had to live in the dark.

   The Shado-Pan, the Golden Lotus Sect and our family are all connected, and we will do everything they are inconvenient to do.

   Don't say that our Jade Lotus Gang are all bad people. Although what we do is really shameful, when the panda people are active in the Fear Wasteland and Townlong Highlands, most of them have to be sheltered by us.

  We also occasionally acted as 'messengers' between the yaungol, mantid and pandaren, and over time, the major forces of Pandaria acquiesced to our existence.

   But although it sounds majestic, alas, life is not so easy. "

   Female Pandaren shook her head, she looked at the mist drifting in front of her eyes, and said in a low voice:

   "Especially after my cousin-in-law died from a lizard man attack many years ago, it was very difficult for my cousin to support the Jade Lotus Gang by herself, and it was almost impossible to hold on, but outsiders outside the fog gave us a chance.

  Darkness finds its chance to grow stronger only in chaos.

  Peaceful Pandaria doesn't have so many shadows for us to hide in, but according to outsiders, the intriguing world outside seems more suitable for us to survive. "

  Zhou Zhuo also felt a little emotional, Lorewalkers are always so emotional.

   But Black scoffed.

   The smelly pirate drank and said:

   "Your cousin taught you to say these words, right? In fact, it doesn't have to be. You deliberately show weakness and will not let me relax my vigilance. We are all the same kind, so we don't need to do such a performance.

  I know the potential of the Jade Lotus Gang. You are indeed very suitable for living outside. You only need to get through the initial adaptation period. I believe that your smuggling business will definitely become more and more prosperous.

  I actually have the intention to create a pirate black market within Azeroth.

  The lucrative business has always been controlled by goblins in the past, and the 'trade prince' under my command has to run the boat, so I can't tell the energy to get involved in those things.

  Perhaps, the Yulian Gang can help me relieve my worries? "

   "As expected of a world-renowned pirate!"

   Mrs. Guo Su immediately gave a thumbs up and said to Blake with a smile:

   "Cousin's compliment to you is really not groundless. You can see at a glance what our Yulian Gang is best at. We are most familiar with the black market trade, and we will never disappoint our partners."

   "You guys better not let me down, seriously."

  The pirate snorted and said:

   "Some people have sharpened their heads and want to have a good relationship with me. Your existence is not irreplaceable to me, but I am different to you."

   Mrs. Guo Su didn't answer, she just looked ahead. After a few minutes, she waved her paw and said:

   "The fog has dissipated! There is only a quarter of an hour a day to pass through, do you see the stone lion in front of you? There is the royal corridor leading to Yongchun Terrace.

  Our family swears to guard the mausoleum for Emperor Shaohao, that is not a place for us courtiers to set foot.

   Lord Black, go! Even if you can't enter Yongchun Terrace, it's fine, you can come out safely by waiting in place until this time tomorrow. "

   "You unlucky child, you really can't speak!"

  The smelly pirate waved his hand and slashed Mrs. Guo Su's forehead, saying:

   "What do you mean by not being able to? There's no such thing in my pirate dictionary, little idiot, Kenken, and Zhou Zhuo, keep up!"

  Blake rushed forward with a single stride, following the tumbling sea of ​​clouds and mist that opened a gap, and the little murloc hozen and Zhou Zhuo followed closely behind him.

  Because of their trust in the pirates, they hardly considered the possibility that the Yulian Gang deliberately pointed the wrong way.

   But it turns out that the pirates are still very reliable. After running along the gap in the mist for three minutes, the four finally saw the huge scarlet palace gate carved from a whole mountain wall.

   Its shape is not a pandaren style, but another more magnificent and domineering style, like an architectural style prepared for giants.

   "This is the architectural style of the mogu. They like this kind of building that looks imposing. Look at the Quirin statue at the door! That is the royal Quirin, a magical beast that has become extinct in Pandaria.

  As majestic as lions, fierce as tigers, loyal as hounds, these quilen stone beasts are the favorite pets of the mogu, and they are said to have been shaped by gods with forgotten names in the rocks with them. "

   Zhou Zhuo looked at the palace in front of him and said with emotion:

   "Look, this is Yongchun Terrace, which once belonged to the palace of the mogu tyrant Thor, and was later regarded by the panda people as a symbol of freedom and victory, the favorite palace of the emperors of all dynasties.

   It is said that there is a magical fountain of youth here, soaking in a moment can wash all filth and heal all wounds, although it is a little worse than the legendary fountain of youth.

   But it is also the magical thing that Pandaria can breed.

   I never thought that I would have the honor to set foot in the place where Emperor Shaohao was sitting, and other wanderers would envy me. "

   "Before you can enjoy the envy of your peers, you have to prevent them from making peace with the bad guy and following the pirates to clean up the door and kill you."

Blake complained, took a step forward, put his hand on the huge ten-meter-high palace gate of Yongchun Terrace, and pushed it forward with all his might. With a low sound, the ancient palace, which had been closed for ten thousand years from the outside world, was in front of him. Open slowly in front of you.

   The royal garden palace with the entire huge golden valley as the main body came into view, but before the pirates could fully appreciate it, a group of silver-grey Jinyumen in full armor rushed over with murderous intent.

   These Jinyu people are still wearing royal armor from 10,000 years ago, their majestic faces are full of mission-like advice, and they are led by three especially tall Jinyu elders.

   They glared at the "invader".

   "This is not where you should be! Get out! Disrespectful!"

   Elder Jinyu shouted:

   "Emperor Shaohao's deathbed cannot be disturbed!"

The pirates blinked. The three legendary Jinyu and a group of palace guards who were not easy to mess with were already difficult enough. There was still golden light shining above the Yongchuntai Palace, and one above the sky was even bigger than the Yulong Tianzun. The small golden auspicious dragon is roaring and descending.

   That is the candle dragon.

   is said to be Emperor Shaohao's mount and Xianglong's companion. He has guarded the emperor's mausoleum here for 10,000 years. With such a long lifespan, he must be a demigod.

   Ordinary serpents do not have such vigorous vitality.

   It is also to drive out invaders.

   "I am even the messenger of the gods, guardians."

  Blake calmly escaped from the seal given by Yulong Tianzun, raised the sapphire jade seal high, and instantly quelled the murderous Shaohao Imperial Guards in front of him.

   he cried out:

   "The Supreme Heavenly God has exchanged predictions of fate with the great prophet beyond the fog. Emperor Shaohao's heavy mission will end today, and his ten thousand years of protection will usher in freedom!

  The enemy from ten thousand years ago has returned, and Pandaria should lift the blockade today and re-enter the world!

   I am not here to disturb the emperor!

   I came to say goodbye to him.

Step aside!

   Loyal guardians, no one knows better than you the pain and exhaustion of His Majesty Shaohao in the past ten thousand years. His great devotion should come to an end, and he deserves rest and relief.

   This is his power, you can't be so selfish. "

The words    said that the guards were extremely silent, and Zhou Zhuo, who was behind the pirates, was stunned. The Lorewalker thought of a possibility, and his whole body trembled with excitement.

  Black glanced back at him and said:

   "It's an honor, my friend, you will be the last pandaren to see Emperor Shaohao with your own eyes, so we need to clean up our demeanor, we are going to meet the emperor.

   Don't embarrass me, okay? "

   Zhou Zhuo was so excited that he immediately took out his best clothes from his suitcase and changed them on the spot. The little murloc also lent a set of his own dress to Hozen Kenken.

  Blake didn’t need to pack up, he had already changed into a dashing Kul Tiras-style semi-hunting outfit.

  Under the **** and watch of the surrounding Jinyu Guards and the candle dragon flying in the sky, the group stepped into Yongchun Taizhong and went up along the luxurious stone staircase in the center.

   Soon, they came to the deepest platform of the palace.

   It was a huge clear blue spring, and a beautiful pandaren water spirit was playing on it, making a girl-like clear and lovely laughter.

   In front of Black and Zhou Zhuo, an old pandaren wearing a black and white robe and a crown was leaning on a strange misty staff in front of Quanquan.

   His body has been weathered for thousands of years, and it exists here only as a reflection of a soul.

  The last emperor of the pandaren merged his power with the entire land of Pandaria before the War of the Ancients, and created a mist enchantment covering the continent, allowing Pandaria to successfully escape the catastrophe.

  He protected all the creatures on this earth with his own power.

  This emperor has never enjoyed a day of glory and wealth. He has been running for his hometown from the day he ascended the throne. Just such conduct and great dedication deserves Blake to salute him with respect.

   He was an emperor.

   Azshara was also an emperor.

  The troll dynasty at that time also had a king of gold, but what the other two emperors did in the battle of the ancients really didn't deserve Shaohao's shoes.

   "You came earlier than I expected."

   Shaohao's last phantom in the world looked at Blake with a smile and said:

   "At least thirty years early"

   "That's normal, Your Majesty."

   Black replied softly:

"If I, the prophet, intervene, I will make you suffer for another 30 years, then I really might as well wipe my neck and commit suicide. I have changed the fate of many people, and those changes did not make me feel happy.

   But today, this really makes me feel better.

  You see, I have bought you 30 more years of time. You may be able to spend these 30 years traveling in your hometown and watching the world change to make up for 10,000 years of loneliness.

   I'm just a mortal.

   This is all I can do for you. "

   "But you owe me, Blake Shaw, prophet in black."

  Emperor Shaohao suddenly lowered his voice and said rudely:

   "I haven't asked you to settle the account of the mess 10,000 years ago, but it doesn't matter. Let's meet again 10,000 years ago, remember the prophet in black! You still owe me an answer."

  “!!”

  Blake's eyes widened instantly, a flash of lightning flashed through his soul, but before he could ask any more questions, the figure of Emperor Shaohao in front of him dissipated with a laugh.

   A cloud of mist lingers, and there is only a long, low voice of vicissitudes left:

   "Why did the war burn, and why did the autumn leaves fall?"

   "Nature is inalienable?"

   "Hehe, I still have doubts in my heart."
