Chapter 1283 Restrictions Lifted, Resurrection
Chapter 1283 Restrictions Lifted, Resurrection
While the people of the Sacred Fire Palace were still in a daze, the City Lord of Si Huo City didn't hesitate at all, directly addressing a Legalist sorcerer:
"Chen Shuzhi, please begin the interrogation immediately!"
The man accepted the order.
They immediately stepped forward to inquire.
Legalists have no combat abilities and even have a lifespan of less than a hundred years, just like ordinary mortals. However, their greatest strength lies in investigating the truth. No one can lie in front of them; they can only speak the truth.
The people of the Sacred Fire Palace were all ashen-faced, as if they had lost their parents. They wanted to resist but were powerless to do so. In the end, they could only honestly confess a series of shocking messages to everyone in the hall.
“We discovered long ago that Pei Yanzhou didn’t have the ability; we were just following orders and playing along.”
"Nan Jun wants to abandon Si Huo City and hopes that everyone in Si Huo City will die."
"Our mission is to ensure the successful destruction of Si Huo City."
"I don't know why Nan Jun did this, but someone like Nan Jun has his reasons for everything. We just need to follow his orders."
“Even if Pei Yanzhou doesn’t fail, we will make him fail. We also brought a bunch of Holy Light Stones. Even if the ten Holy Light Stones Pei Yanzhou chose don’t destroy the Holy Light Core, we will still use the Holy Light Stones we brought.”
"..."
As one piece of information after another was extracted through the Legalist methods of interrogation, many officials in the hall were also dragged out one after another. In the blink of an eye, most of the people in the hall were subdued.
The remaining few officials also looked extremely grim.
Nobody expected it.
Nan Jun actually wanted to destroy Si Huo City.
Even though they knew that Lord Sihuo was under house arrest, few of them were willing to defy Lord Nan for Lord Sihuo's sake, since Lord Nan had no reason to harm Sihuo City.
But now...
They almost caused a major disaster!
Fear mixed with anger led them to angrily rebuke the people of the Holy Fire Palace:
"You bastards, why did you do this?"
"Si Huo City has never mistreated you. The people of the city even regard Lord Nan as their faith. How dare you do this!"
"Shameless! You traitors!!!"
Perhaps seeing that the situation was hopeless, and after being insulted so harshly, Judge Bao had become reckless. Instead of panicking, he grinned maliciously.
"Even if you discover it now, so what? It's too late! The Holy Light Core will soon be extinguished. At that time, no matter how powerful you are, you can't possibly evacuate all 80 million people in the city. They will all die!"
"Let me tell you, even if you manage to move these people, Nan Jun will kill you all, leaving not a single one alive!!!"
"Hahahaha, Nan Jun will avenge us!"
His words revived the spirits of the Holy Fire Palace's assassins, but just as their spirits were rising, Lin Qingyan sneered:
"Nan Jun will avenge you? You're in for a disappointment!"
"Just now, the Northern Lord, Jubao City, Fengyi City, and Zhiyuan City have all announced that they will jointly besiege the Southern Lord, the enemy of the Three Enclosures!"
"Yunxiang City and Huiju City have also announced that they will leave Nanjun's camp after the truth is found!"
"The Southern Lord is now surrounded by enemies on all sides and has no time to help himself!"
"How is this possible? What nonsense are you talking about?" Judge Bao exclaimed incredulously.
"Nonsense?" Lin Qingyan shouted sternly, "Nan Jun has been blinded by the sea of evil and actually plans to release Ji Zun into the world, causing great trouble to the Three Palaces. Such behavior should be jointly condemned by the Ziwei Palace!"
Wow!
The news caused another uproar.
Even the Lord of Si Huo City, who had just broken free from the constraints of the divine oath, stared wide-eyed, never expecting this outcome.
The General Wenren Guanchao was also shocked. He was a loyal supporter of Nan Jun and was supported by Sheng Huo Palace to share power with Si Huo Gong. Although he was loyal to Si Huo City, he also had some feelings for Nan Jun.
But now that this news has come out, he finds it hard to believe for a moment.
But in reality, everyone knew that since so many cities had declared war on the Southern Lord, and even Yunxiang City and Huiju City had announced their secession from the Southern Lord, it meant that the news was most likely true.
Nan Jun really intends to release Ji Zun and destroy the Ziwei Enclosure!
Amidst the gasps of surprise, Judge Bao, as if possessed, suddenly burst into wild laughter:
"Hahaha, even so, so what?"
"We won too!"
"The core of the Holy Light City can no longer hold out. You yourselves have given up the best opportunity to evacuate the people. You will all die! Every single one of you will die!"
"Our mission is complete!!!"
He had completely gone mad, even knowing he was going to die and guessing that Nan Jun might soon be finished.
But so what?
He will have people buried with him; at least half of the 80 million people in Sihuo City will die!
Hearing his burst of laughter, everyone else felt a jolt in their hearts, because what Lord Bao said was true.
They had already missed the best opportunity to evacuate, and even if they raced against time, they probably wouldn't be able to move many people. Even Lin Qingyan felt heavy-hearted; she had already made preparations for the evacuation in advance, hoping that if they rushed, they might be able to successfully move everyone.
Can……
This is Ziwei Yuan. The distance between the cities is not short, and any accident could happen on the way. She couldn't say how many people would die.
However, just when everyone was in despair but could only force themselves to stay alert and hurry up to prepare for the evacuation of people.
Gu Xiu's voice suddenly came:
"The people of Si Huo City do not need to be relocated."
Ok?
These words stunned everyone, even Si Huo Gong and Lin Qingyan and her daughter felt a sinking feeling in their hearts.
He's saying this now...
Could it be that they want to back out, and Wuwei City is no longer willing to accept the people from Sihuo City?
But just as I was about to ask further questions...
Suddenly, a figure rushed out like the wind and pounced on Gu Xiu's side, looking at the core of the holy light in front of Gu Xiu with a shocked expression.
wrong!
Holy Light Core?
Wasn't it already destroyed?
But then Dugu Huai, who had rushed out, exclaimed in surprise:
"You opened Holy Wax Stones? You...you opened at least twenty Holy Wax Stones? You actually brought the dead Holy Light Core back to life?!"
"Could it be..."
"You've figured out how to distinguish sacred wax stones???!!!"
This Yin-Yang Master, who was usually calm and composed, was now completely unremarkable, and even his voice was cracking.
Then, shifting their gaze, everyone realized...
While they confronted and interrogated the people from the Sacred Flame Palace, Gu Xiu was clearly constantly opening the Sacred Wax Stone. Moreover, not only him, but Pei Yanzhou also stood obediently beside Gu Xiu at some point.
At their feet, beside them, lay a pile of peeled-off holy wax stone.
Roughly estimated, at least twenty pieces of holy wax stone have already been opened.
What's most eye-catching is the core of the Holy Light that had been corroded by the Qi of Annihilation and turned into a seed. Now, it has somehow bloomed again, though it is still weak and is still a semi-transparent replica created by the divine power of following the will of Heaven and responding to the times.
Can……
It actually came back to life!!!
