Chapter 1173 The Demon in the Heart Arrives

The next day, Wu Yi took Chen Jiaying to play around. The Chen family sent dozens of servants to accompany them, and the momentum was not too small.

Picnic, it was the dawn world, the mist and haze were scattered, the sun and the moon were shaking. There were old cypresses and bamboos beside, thousands of old cypresses, green in the rain in the sky; thousands of bamboos, with smoke in the valley, were gray.

There were exotic flowers on the roadside, and fragrant grass on the bridge. The stone cliffs were abrupt and green, and the hanging walls were covered with green moss. With the beautiful scenery in front of us, we couldn't help but express our feelings.

Picking hundreds of flowers for food, looking for fruits for cold dishes, collecting small animals for barbecue, and looking for yams for longevity, a day passed in a hurry. At night, Wu Yi and others returned to the Chen family's villa to rest.

The next few days were all ordinary. In the eyes of outsiders, it sounded good to be intoxicated by mountains and rivers, and it was bad to be playing for fun.

Especially Wu Yi's identity, under King Yong, was still so special. As Shangwen, he had the task of recommending talents to King Yong. Some scholars followed Wu Yi from dozens of miles away to please him.

These people wrote a lot of poems and essays about flowers and plants along the way. Wu Yi did not reject them. He played with them and commented on them when they finished their poems and essays. He praised them and even praised them.

So, a few days later, news came from Liuchen County that Wu Yi's position as Shangwen was also taken away. Except for a little affection, he really had no status at all.

Once the Shangwen position was gone, those scholars who came to rely on him avoided Wu Yi as if he were facing the plague god. Within a day, they all dispersed.

There was a lot of peace around him. Some people in the Chen family also thought that Wu Yi had lost his power. They were no longer respectful to Wu Yi as they were at the beginning, and they were more frivolous.

This change was expected long ago, so Wu Yi was not surprised by honor or disgrace. Now the more they reject him, the safer he is.

If anyone is happy after Wu Yi was deprived of power, apart from those political enemies, it is Chen Jiaying, because Wu Yi has more time to accompany her. These few days are the happiest time since she married Wu Yi.

She doesn't want Wu Yi to be granted a title of Wanli or a title of Langjuxu. There are only a few people like that in the ancient dynasties. The risk is too great. It is Chen Jiaying's greatest hope to live in peace.

Everyone thinks that Wu Yi is self-deprecating by doing this, but only Wu Yi himself knows that another purpose of this move is to avoid being contaminated by the cause and effect of the calamity.

As early as a few days ago, the Heart Demon Body and the Taotie Chaos Beasts had arrived around Liuchen County and were ready to thwart the trend of King Yong's expansion. The storm is coming, and withdrawing at this time can also avoid being backlashed by public opinion.

However, this point is not enough to tell outsiders.

One night, Wu Yi and Yue Liuli played chess with the Dingyun Star Plate. The Dingyun Star Plate is a divine object, and the chess pieces played here are naturally not ordinary chess pieces.

Taking the mountains and rivers as the chessboard, each chess piece that falls on the chessboard is a troop, either under the command of King Yong or from a small country. The chess pieces left in the hand can be regarded as the people of both sides. Whether the people are willing to support the war determines how long the war can last.

Yue Liuli is in charge of the black chess, and the black chess is mainly offensive, symbolizing the current Daji Dynasty, and the white chess is mainly defensive, which is the many small countries now.

The black chess dragon has been formed, and the troops of all parties can be controlled at will. Yue Liuli has almost endless chess pieces in his hands, because the people believe that this war can be won, so they are willing to support it. In the eyes of many people, the so-called war is nothing more than a military parade. Once the heavenly soldiers arrive, the small countries will bow down one after another.

Compared with the white chess in Wu Yi's hands, not to mention fighting on their own, there is no trust in each other internally, and even the basic integration has not been achieved. Although it is a bit bluffing in terms of absolute numbers, it is a mess anyway, without much combat effectiveness.

The people of the small country were frightened by the army of the Celestial Empire and believed that they would definitely lose, so they were unwilling to resist. Therefore, Wu Yi had almost no other available chess pieces in his hand. Even the chess pieces on the chessboard were somewhat unstable, symbolizing the resistance of the small country, and many of them wanted to surrender.

This game of chess has been played for a few days. From the first day, Yue Liuli asserted that the black chess would win this game. Yue Liuli was originally a member of the royal family of Mingyue Realm, and she had also commanded troops and was familiar with military tactics. In this situation, she could not see the possibility of the white chess winning at all.

At first, Wu Yi smiled and said nothing. He also knew in his heart that this was almost obvious. It was almost impossible to subvert it, at least strategically, unless the Daji Dynasty had an internal strife and followed its own footsteps, or there was a change in the sky, and these people were taken in.

But, isn't this wishful thinking?

In fact, whether it is success or failure, when the inner demon body descends, there will always be chaos. For Wu Yi, although he is just an "outsider" now, success and failure are both good things for him, and it is nothing more than the difference in the size of the harvest.

Before the war, Wu Yi was already invincible. In this case, what is there to worry about? But then again, although he is invincible, he can get better results. Why not give it a try?

Yue Liuli still couldn't understand it, because she didn't know much about the inner demon body. Although she knew the existence of the inner demon body, the changes in it since the inner demon body entered the upper realm could not be described in a few words.

In Yue Liuli's eyes, the inner demon body is still the same as the human body, and has not yet crossed the threshold of immortals and mortals. However, she does not know that the inner demon body has not only crossed the threshold of immortals and mortals, but has also gone a step further and refined a blood demon whose strength is no less than that of Taiyi Shangxian as the inner demon body. Although there are infinite limitations, it is not an exaggeration to say that it has ascended to heaven in one fell swoop.

Because of the improvement of cultivation, the inner demon body's control and grasp of the calamity energy is also better than before. Within the scope of ability, if the opponent has a flaw, it is no problem whether it is exposed or not. Wu Yi can completely change things according to his own mind. It is not an exaggeration to say that the mind becomes true.

How to understand this statement? Within the scope of ability, there is no need to explain too much, it is the literal meaning.

Mainly explain what happens if the opponent exposes a flaw. The inner demon body controls the black lotus, and the black lotus is the carrier of the calamity energy of the Great Ji Dynasty. Wu Yi's control of the calamity energy, in the final analysis, also depends on the nature of the calamity energy itself.

What nature does the calamity energy have? It is colorless, tasteless, invisible and intangible, but it does exist. Many people cannot touch it, so they think that calamity energy does not exist and is made up by people. This is naive and ridiculous.
