Dark Night without Light

Chapter 1608: Dark Night

The golden ship for ferrying people across the world sailed out of Youdu and came to the ancestral temple. Yue Tianzun took Ling Tianzun to find the place where the Divine Consciousness Daluotian and Yiqi Daluotian collided. She used her magical powers to send Ling Tianzun to the Divine Consciousness Daluotian, and scared Taichu away.

Ling Tianzun didn't say much to Yun Tianzun, and only told him about Kaihuang's fall.

Yun Tianzun was silent for a moment, and said: "When you go back, tell Mu Tianzun. In the long years from Longhan to now, we have experienced sufferings that are darker than what we are experiencing now, but we have come through it and walked out. He will also walk out."

He thought about it and wanted to say something else, but he didn't know what to say.

Yue Tianzun brought Ling Tianzun back, only to see Qin Mu still lying there, not knowing whether he was in a coma or didn't want to wake up.

"Where should we go?" Tian Gong asked in confusion.

"Go to Yankang." said You Tianzun.

Qin Fengqing hugged his knees with his hands, hid in the corner of the golden boat, and whispered: "I want to go home, I want to go back to Wuyou Township. Kaihuang should still be there..."

The golden ship arrived in Yankang.

Emperor Yanxiu Ling Yuxiu came upon hearing the news. When she arrived on the boat, she saw that Yue Tianzun, Ling Tianzun and others had already left. Qin Mu got up at some point and sat on the edge of the golden boat, lost in thought.

Ling Yuxiu came to his side, climbed onto the edge of the boat and sat with him.

She turned her head and saw that there were some white hairs on Qin Mu's temples where they were soaked with tears.

He is no longer a young man, but has the calmness and maturity of a young and middle-aged man.

The cowherd who used to herd cattle by the Yongjiang River has grown up and his heart is a little haggard.

"Let's get married."

Qin Mu lowered his head and looked down. Below was the capital of Yankang, which was shrouded in clouds and mist. He said calmly, "Let's get married. I don't want to be Yankang's imperial teacher anymore. Do you still plan to continue to be the emperor?"

Ling Yuxiu leaned on his shoulder and whispered, "I will find my father and refuse the throne. When I find my father and Jiang Baigui, we can unload our respective burdens. Wait for me for a few more days. Do we need to stop the Yankang Reform?"

"If the human race wants to survive, they must stop the reforms."

Qin Mu and she leaned on each other, his soul seemed to be empty, only a walking corpse remained, muttering: "There is no hope of turning the situation around... When you go to find the emperor and the national teacher, I will go to the heaven."

Ling Yuxiu nodded gently: "After we retreat, will you go to Yongjiang?"

"Yes. I was originally a cowherd by the Yongjiang River. It's time for me to be myself again..."

"I'll accompany you."

…

After Ling Yuxiu left, Qin Mu took off his clothes, exposing his upper body and wearing only pants.

He took ropes and thorns and tied himself up. The thorns were covered with sharp thorns that pierced his skin.

You Tianzun watched this scene, did not step forward to stop it, and slowly put on the ghost face mask on himself.

Yue Tianzun stepped forward to persuade him, and Qin Mu smiled and said, "When Yun Tianzun died in the battle, you all retired in despair, so there is no need to persuade me."

Yue Tianzun was speechless.

Ling Tianzun thought about it and didn't try to persuade him.

Tian Gong hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and asked, "When will Mu Tianzun revive Tu Bo?"

Qin Mu said gently, "Brother Dao, rest assured. I will go to the Heavenly Palace and kneel before the South Heavenly Gate to apologize. If Lord Haotian allows me, I can survive, and Yankang and Wuyou Township can be saved. Then, I will come back to revive Tubo. There is one more thing. Brother Dao, please inform the Western Emperor, the Northern Emperor, and the Eastern Emperor not to rebel. Ask them to kneel with me at the South Heavenly Gate."

The God stood there in a trance.

Qin Mu got off the golden boat. In the shadow of the golden boat, Qin Fengqing called out weakly, "Brother, I want to go home..."

Qin Mu smiled and said, "Go back. I'm sorry, brother. I shouldn't have let you take on such a heavy responsibility. I shouldn't have let you be a local uncle. I can protect you. Go back and tell my parents that I'm fine."

Qin Fengqing stared at him in a daze and did not move back.

Qin Mu walked towards the spiritual energy bridge of Yankang Xiajing. Ling Tianzun blocked his way and said, "Yun Tianzun told me to tell you that you have come through the darkest moments and walked out. He also said that you can walk out."

Qin Mu smiled and said, "But I can't get out. I don't see any chance of winning. Maybe I will get out in the future, but now, I'm tired."

Ling Tianzun looked at the white hair on his temples, was silent for a moment, and said: "Give me 50,000 years, and I will solve all the mysteries of the red knot of the master of Miro Palace. By then, no one can be your opponent!"

"Fifty thousand years..."

Qin Mu smiled weakly and shook his head, "I can wait, but Yankang can't, and the human race can't wait. If we continue to resist, the human race will be wiped out. Sister Ling, don't stop me."

Ling Tianzun fell silent and made way.

Qin Mu continued to move forward. Lang Hui was standing in front of him, graceful and elegant, waiting for him quietly.

Qin Mu stopped and asked, "Langhui, are you here to stop me from surrendering to the Heavenly Court?"

Lang Hui shook his head: "I am here to go with you."

Qin Mu was stunned.

Lang Hui said calmly: "If you go to ask for forgiveness, you can only save Yankang and Wuyou Township, but you can't save the only remaining Creator. I am going to go to the Heavenly Palace with you. You kneel in front of the South Heaven Gate, and I will go to see Hao Tianzun. Perhaps I can become his empress and save the Creator clan."

Qin Mu's expression was complicated. After a moment, he said, "I am unworthy of being the Holy Infant of the Creator Clan. You placed your hopes on me, thinking that I could lead you to restore the glory of the Creator Clan, but all of this was actually a lie. I am ashamed of you and your people. If you believe in me, I will do my best to protect the Creator of Worry-Free Township."

Lang Wei shook his head and said, "Hao Tianzun wants me to be his empress. This is the power of the victor. As a loser, you have no right to bargain with him."

Qin Mu remained silent and continued forward with the thorns on his back.

Suddenly, Yue Tianzun came hurriedly from the heavenly palace of Di De Yuanjun with the village chief and the pharmacist, left them behind and ran away.

The village chief stood firm, his face solemn, and shouted in a deep voice: "Mu'er! Did a setback defeat you? What did I teach you when you were a child? You are a tyrant, an unparalleled tyrant..."

Qin Mu's voice was hoarse as he whispered, "Grandpa Village Chief, the Tyrant Body is just a lie. It inspired me for a while, but it can't inspire me forever. I should have woken up from the dream of the Tyrant Body a long time ago. I am just an ordinary person, an ordinary child you picked up from the riverside. I am even worse than an ordinary person. I don't even have my own soul, and my body belongs to my brother. I am tired..."

The village chief looked at him with a complicated expression, and suddenly heaved a long sigh: "Pharmacist, you come and persuade him."

The pharmacist was silent for a moment, then said, "Mu'er, the Tyrant Body is indeed fake, but you have relied on this belief to be invincible along the way. Who in the world has achieved as much as you? Who has your talent? You are not a Tyrant Body, but you have done things that even a Tyrant Body cannot do."

"Grandpa Pharmacist, you have seen my success, have you seen how much effort I put in?"

Qin Mu suddenly lost control and shouted, "From the moment I knew I was a Tyrant, I started to fight hard! I started to use my brain and rack my brains! I was afraid, I was afraid of disappointing your expectations of me! I was afraid that I would live up to the name of Tyrant! I was afraid of your eyes behind me! I fought hard again and again, and almost died again and again, not because I believed that I was a Tyrant, but because I didn't want you to be disappointed in me!"

He shouted at the top of his lungs: "What happened next? Later I came to Yankang, I became the leader of Tiansheng Sect, I shouldn't have known about the reform, the revolution, I shouldn't have listened to the teachings of the saints, I shouldn't have become the national teacher of Yankang! I took on all these responsibilities, so I had to work harder and risk my life! Tyrant body? There is no such thing as a Tyrant body! What exists is only obtained by ordinary people like me at the cost of their lives!"

The pharmacist was stunned and fell silent.

Qin Mu panted heavily, his expression relaxed again, and he walked to the pharmacist and the village chief, with a sense of powerlessness in his voice: "Grandpa pharmacist, grandpa village chief, I'm tired and don't want to pretend to be a tyrant anymore. You expect too much of me, I can't do it, don't stop me."

The village chief opened his mouth, but could only sigh.

Qin Mu stumbled forward, and suddenly the space leaped, and Yue Tianzun appeared out of nowhere, placing Granny Si, the blind man, and the mute in front of him, and hurriedly said: "I'm going to find Tiandao, the Painting Saint, and Ma Rulai!"

Qin Mu shook his head and said, "Yue, there's no need to worry."

Yue Tianzun left without saying a word.

Qin Mu looked at Granny Si, the blind man, and the mute, and smiled with tears in his eyes, "Granny, blind grandpa, mute grandpa, I'm tired, I don't want to fight anymore, I want to go home. I want to go back to the disabled old village, I want to go back to my youth."

Granny Si was planning to persuade him, but she softened her heart after hearing what he said. She wiped away her tears and said, "Then go home. You are not allowed to talk!"

She glared at the blind man and the mute man and said, "Don't try to persuade him! It's better to go home. You shouldn't be responsible for the fate of this world! Go home, Mu'er, let's go back and build another village for the disabled and the elderly."

Qin Mu dragged his heavy steps past them. The blind man and the mute turned around and stared at his back blankly. The blind man opened his mouth and said tremblingly: "Mu'er, we are going back. Where is the cripple? Can the cripple come back?"

Qin Mu stopped and his body trembled.

"Cripple, you can't come back..."

The blind man said in a trembling voice: "Canlao Village is no longer the original Canlao Village. We can't go back, Mu'er..."

Plop.

Qin Mu knelt on the ground and lowered his head.

The blind man walked up behind him and grabbed his shoulders: "If the cripple was here, he would definitely not want to see you like this..."

"I don't see any hope—"

Qin Mu roared like an old wolf, lowered his head to his chest, and cried loudly: "I can no longer see any hope! Don't push me anymore! We have already lost, I can't gamble with everyone's lives!"

He burst into tears, turned around, and kowtowed to the village chief, Granny Si, the blind man and the others: "I'm sorry to Grandpa Lame, and I'm sorry for your expectations. But I..."

He looked up: "It has to be done."

The village chief sighed and helped him up: "Mu'er, go and do it. We will wait for you to come back."

Qin Mu turned around and walked towards the Psychic Energy Bridge, with Lang Hui following behind him.

Yankang went to the capital, Ling Yuxiu led the civil and military officials of Yankang, watching this scene silently, his heart was broken, but his face was calm.

"Your Majesty, won't you stop the imperial teacher?" asked a minister.

Ling Yuxiu shook her head: "No need to stop him. He is no longer your imperial teacher, and I will no longer be your majesty. When the emperor arrives here, I will abdicate, and I will leave Yankang with him and live in seclusion..."

The civil and military officials looked at each other, and no one said a word.

Qin Mu stepped onto the Psychic Transfer Bridge step by step. Looking at the psychic light in front of him, he took a long breath and was about to step into the bridge.

Suddenly, Yu Chenzi came running from a distance and shouted, "National Master, wait! Wait!"
