Chapter 1081 Long Ming
An illusory water mirror appeared in front of Mo Yi. In the mirror was a handsome man with a resolute and mature look. He was sitting on the imperial throne. The corners of his blue-purple robe were blown up by the wind, and the black-gold armor lining highlighted his kingly demeanor.
This person is none other than the Yaksha King, Long Ming.
[Long Ming, appeared in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy V Prequel" and "The Legend of Sword and Fairy V" DLC "The Past is Like a Dream".
The ruler of the Yaksha tribe in the demon world, and the elder brother of Long You, the second male protagonist of Immortal Five. He is meticulous and smart, with extraordinary courage and boldness. He went to the human world alone to find the Shennong Ding and the Water Spirit Pearl to restore the water veins in the demon world.
During this period, he had a conflict with the protagonist of the prequel of Chinese Paladin V, and met Ling Bo, a disciple of Shushan. After meeting each other, they both felt like they had met a soulmate, and gradually fell in love.
After that, because he had deduced the location of the Shennong Ding from Lingbo's mouth, he chose the eve of the turmoil in the seal of the Well of Gods and Demons and broke into the Xuanguang Palace in Shushan at night to steal the artifact when Taiwu and Yipin were not in Shushan.
Unexpectedly, when he was confronting Ling Bo, the guardian of the artifact in front of Xuanguang Palace, he was seen by the three protagonists of The Legend of Sword and Fairy V (Xiahou Jinxuan, Xia, and Mu Changlan). Lingbo knew that Long Ming stole the tripod to save people, so he stopped the three from alerting Shushan and brought the three into the palace. Seeing this, Long Ming devised a plan to lure the three into the game to help him break the formation in Xuanguang Palace.
Afterwards, Ling Bo, based on the fact that Long Ming took the tripod to save the people of the demon clan, lifted the restriction on the artifact for him and was injured by the protective mechanism. Long Ming was also injured by the divine power because he sacrificed himself to protect him at the last moment, and Ling Bo was injured even more seriously.
Since one of them was a demon and the other was an immortal, their physiques were incompatible. Long Ming was helpless against Ling Bo's injuries, so he settled her in the Liuguang Cave under Mount Shu, and hurried to the Shenjiang Secret Realm to seize the Water Spirit Pearl. In order to succeed, he would take Ling Bo to the Demon Realm to work with Mo Yi to treat her.
Unexpectedly, the creature guarding the Water Spirit Pearl in the secret realm of God's Descendants was the guardian beast bone snake from the Nuwa era. Its combat power was extremely fierce, and it had thousands of lives, so it was difficult to win a quick victory. Long Ming fought with it for a long time with injuries.
Finally, in order to protect the Shennong Ding from being damaged by the poisonous fire of the bone snake, he stood in front of the Ding to hold up the barrier. Unexpectedly, his injury suddenly flared up and he was unfortunately hit by the poisonous fire that severely damaged Yu Mo's body. Then he used all his strength to lift the long spear upside down and dealt a fatal blow to the bone snake to seal it.
However, he was burned by the poisonous fire, and the injuries he had suffered from the power of the Three Emperors worsened to the point of being incurable. After explaining his affairs after his death to Mo Yi who came later and entrusting them to the Yaksha clan and his brother Long You, he died in the Secret Realm of God's Descent.
After Long Ming died, Mo Yi rescued his soul from the poisonous fire of the bone snake, and brought it to the Liuguang Cave to reunite with Ling Bo, who was already seriously injured and almost had his soul torn apart. He then froze Long Ming's soul and Ling Bo's body together. 】
".I know."
After listening to Mo Yi's detailed account of what happened in front of the Demon Palace, Long Ming frowned slightly. Before he awakened his destiny body, his relationship with Mo Yi was that of teacher, friend, enemy and relative. They supported and restrained each other and protected the Yaksha clan together.
According to the fate of the Xianjian world, both of them died for the Yaksha clan, and in their hearts, nothing was more important than the Yaksha clan, including their loved ones.
Although their styles of doing things are completely different, they have exactly the same goals and after obtaining the memories of their second life, they have developed a truly unquestionable trust in each other.
So some things can be said more directly.
For example.
"What do you think about the words of Ghost Lord?"
"Elder, do you mean, if we can't beat them, then we should join them?" Long Ming chuckled, then shook his head and said, "I need to be responsible for the Yaksha tribe's subjects, so I can't choose to surrender just because of his words, even if he threatens our lives.
What do the elders think?
Mo Yi was a little hesitant and didn't speak for a long time, which made Long Ming feel a little surprised.
Because he knew very well that Mo Yi would not be threatened by the so-called life-threatening situation, and would definitely not be afraid of death.
Then he heard Mo Yi say:
"I just saw the future of the Demon Realm."
"future?"
“Well, now the seven royal families are trapped in the Demon Realm by the bait of the Red Luo Demon Country. If you think about the development history of the Ghost Market, in one month, two months, or at most half a year, the other party may have the strength to overthrow the Demon Realm.
With the Sky Demon Clan as the vanguard and the assistance of Military Advisor Yun, the biggest racial issue that originally hung between the two sides no longer existed. In the final analysis, the competition still came down to the power in one's hands.
In this regard, we are at an absolute disadvantage.
Now I even begin to doubt whether taking over the Red Demon Kingdom is good or bad for my Yaksha clan."
“A larger territory and more resources are naturally good things for our subjects. Moreover, the Yaksha tribe’s official entry into the arena of hegemony will also be beneficial to the progress of your and my destiny.” Long Ming said in a firm tone.
"Although the Red Demon Nation does not have a deep foundation, it has also built up a sense of family and country. Even with the help of some of the Demon Nation's high-level officials, it will take some time to fully digest this. In addition, the Red Emperor
His popularity among the middle and upper levels has indeed been exhausted, but for the grassroots people, he has always been a patron saint who can provide them with a sheltered home.
Therefore, once he appears, it will probably cause considerable turmoil in the country."
"Guardian God?" Long Ming shook his head and said seriously, "A country cannot exist without people, and it cannot prosper without a king. The king is originally a sacrifice offered by the people to the country, receiving the blood and flesh of the people in exchange for the prosperity of the country.
A king who fled before the war was over was not worthy of the title.
As a king, you live on the blood of the people, so you should devote all your energy and efforts to governing the country, so that you can live up to the title of king. "
Mo Yi had a headache. Every time he talked about Chi Huang, Long Ming couldn't hide his disgust from the bottom of his heart. Long Ming also knew that he shouldn't continue to dwell on this topic, so he said.
"Anyway, according to what the elder said, if we want to successfully receive the relics of the Red Demon Nation, it will greatly slow down our development speed, but these things must be taken."
“There is also the wrangling with other royal families. Dividing up an entire country requires discussion, discussion, and discussion again before a result that satisfies everyone can be reached.
However, our tribe does not have the strength to crush other tribes, so we have to be dragged into this negotiation rhythm.
This will give the Sky Demon Clan ample time to develop."
"What if it's against the Sky Demon Clan?"
“No, Yun Hongce has already induced us to make promises in front of those middle and high-level officials, and directly give up nearly 90% of the Demon Realm territory in exchange, plus the seeds he planted in the hearts of those demons.
If we go back on our word, we will be attacked immediately and the entire Demon Realm will be in chaos."
"So we can only follow the other party's arrangements?"
"This is an open conspiracy."
Long Ming fell into deep thought, then spoke.
"I will speed up the negotiation with other royal families. It is worth giving up some interests for this. But the elders also need to take some actions. We cannot be trapped in the Demon Realm."
"Your Majesty, are you asking me to use the Soul Binding Technique to control the target?"
"That's right. Now that wars are breaking out all over Jiuzhou, it's a good time to take action. The identities of the demons are too conspicuous. Even if you and I can hide our demonic energy, it's too difficult to climb to the top from scratch. So only the Soul Binding Technique is most suitable to replace a high-ranking official of a top force."
"Top forces." Mo Yi thought for a moment and said, "Although the Buddha Land is now officially at war with the Great Xuan Dynasty, there are many opportunities to attack, but powerful Buddhist practitioners can accurately identify demonic energy, so the Buddha Land cannot be included in the selection range.
As for Daoyu, according to the information we have found, we have confirmed that there is a Demon Locking Tower inside, and there is also the Shushan Sect that completely suppressed this tower."
Mo Yi paused here, and Long Ming in the water mirror was dazed for a while, with bitterness between his brows. He obviously thought of the woman who felt guilty in the memory of the original owner of his fateful body.
"Your Majesty!" Mo Yi shouted loudly.
Long Ming came back to his senses, exhaled a long breath, and said in a deep voice.
"The impact of this fateful body is more serious than I expected, and there is also the inevitable emotional calamity."
"So Daoyu cannot be included in the reference range, and then there is the Great Xuan Dynasty." Mo Yi frowned and said, "It can be confirmed that the other party has too deep entanglements with Tianwai, and the newly ascended Emperor Xuan is also very wrong.
And even if we get a high position, given his current style of having the final say, we can only use part of the intelligence network of the Great Xuan Dynasty.
The most troublesome thing is that there are so many masters in the dynasty. Even someone as powerful as Ghost Lord still holds the title of King of Zhennan, so choosing this side may backfire.
As for the ghost market
"uncle."
Mo Yi was stunned for a moment, then looked at Long Ming, because the other party had always called him elder, and their private relationship was rarely discussed openly.
"Here, I am not asking you as the Yaksha King, but as an ordinary member of the Yaksha tribe and your nephew. I want to know whether you have really thought about joining the Ghost Market, or do you believe that joining the Ghost Market will be more beneficial to our tribe?"
Long Ming looked at Mo Yi seriously.
Mo Yi was silent for a moment and said:
"I will answer your last question first. What I can confirm is that if my Yaksha tribe joins the Ghost Market, as long as I or the king show enough value, then when the Ghost Lord unifies the Demon Realm, the Yaksha tribe will definitely be the second royal family under the Sky Demon tribe.
There are many precedents for this, such as the Sihai Gang, which has developed well in Jiuzhou, and the Gongsun family, which was the first to surrender to Gui Zun. Although the latter did not have a good foundation, it also allowed family members to occupy many important positions.
There are also the Four Families, Six Gangs, Nine Gates and Thirteen Strongholds that were previously disbanded and then recovered by the Ghost Lord. They are now the backbone of the middle-level of the Ghost Market.
Then there is Yan Kuangshan, the former lord of the huge city of Xuanyang, who is now the governor of a state with great power.
As for the previous question, I do think joining the Ghost Market is a better choice.”
"Because of the fate?" Long Ming frowned slightly.
"It's not just a matter of life and death, it's also the inevitable fate of our clan." Mo Yi looked serious.
This made Long Ming frown even more tightly. According to the memory of the original owner of his destiny body, he and Mo Yi died one after another.
It was because of the turbulence in the Well of Gods and Demons that the water veins of the six realms were disordered, causing the water veins of the Demon Realm to dry up, and the people of the Demon Clan were trapped in the flames. The Yaksha Kingdom was coveted by other countries in the Demon Realm because it was located on the only passage between the human and demon worlds.
Faced with a critical situation, Mo Yi hopes to resolve the issue by force and invade the human world, but Long Ming hopes to resolve it peacefully and use divine tools to repair the water veins. Finally, they decide to take a two-pronged approach, all for the future of the Yaksha tribe.
The Demon Realm naturally does not have to worry about water sources today, but considering the fate of the two people, if fate really goes as it pleases, the Demon Realm might really face this disaster for no reason.
At this moment, Long Ming vaguely understood why Mo Yi wanted to join the Ghost Market.
Because of the existence of the Pawnshop of Death, Qin Fan was able to resolve the fate, and perhaps he could also help the Yaksha clan avoid the disaster in advance. Even if everything went according to the original trajectory of fate, the financial resources of the Ghost Market could easily support the Yaksha clan.
For the current Demon Realm and Kyushu, only the Ghost Market can ignore racial prejudice and open up this only trade route.
Just as Long Ming fell into deep thought, Mo Yi spoke again.
"More importantly, we underestimated the strength of the combination of Military Advisor Yun and Master Guizun."
"Oh?"
Mo Yi took a deep breath and said:
"Today's Military Advisor Yun is no longer the powerless inferior demon. He has successfully transformed into the human race's culture and Taoism system and has walked out of his own path. I have told the king before that he can easily open up a space channel that can accommodate the transfer of 100,000 people.
This also means that if the other party knows the location of our Yaksha tribe’s territory, they can directly launch a surprise attack.
But the most important thing is that Ghost Lord is not Scarlet Emperor. Yun Hongce was already very difficult to deal with before, otherwise I would not have been suppressed by him in the position of the Four Heavenly Kings all these years, and now..."
"I understand. This matter concerns the future fate of the Yaksha tribe, so I will seriously consider it." Long Ming nodded and said, "Continuing with the unfinished topic, if you want to plan for Jiuzhou in advance, it seems that you only have one choice left, Elder."
"That's right. Only the Wuwei Palace is more suitable for me to perform the Soul Binding Technique. Next, I will select a suitable target and possess it as soon as possible."
Mo Yi heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Long Ming finally listened to his advice. Then, after removing the Water Mirror Technique, he began to look up at the sky with melancholy.
In fact, he had a more important reason for choosing to join the Ghost Market.
That is, after receiving the memories of the original owner of the destined body, he could empathize with the despair and regret the original owner felt when he knew that Long Ming had died. After all, he was his nephew who he had raised with his own hands, and he was also the natural king on whom he placed all his hopes.
In the original destiny trajectory of the Xianjian world.
After Long Ming's death, it would be easy for Mo Yi to usurp the throne, but he never had any idea about the imperial power. An ideal king must not only have a clear and persistent kingly way, but also have the charm that makes people follow him to death, and the necessary sincerity and honesty.
But this is what the forbearing and gloomy Mo Yi lacks, so he is willing to play the role of silently planning and supporting the Long family royal bloodline behind the scenes. The sacrifice of the country is the definition of the king that Mo Yi taught Long Ming, and it is also his positioning of himself.
Just like his name "Yi", to the enemy it is a haze blocking the sun, but to the Yaksha it may be a barrier that protects against wind and rain.
So if he had another chance to start over, he would never make the same mistake again.
The Ghost Market, or rather, the Lord Ghost, is the only hope to break the fate.
