Your Highness
Chapter 393 Your Highness
"Fat Dragon!"
Hu Ling'er called out, and Long Qilin also knew the seriousness of the situation. He quickly shook his body to reveal his true form and transformed into a giant beast. Ling Yuxiu and Si Yunxiang jumped onto Long Qilin's back. Yan Jingjing hurriedly said, "They are in the Sun Temple of my Mu Ri Clan. Go over there, the tallest and largest temple is it!"
Long Qilin hurriedly exerted his strength and ran towards the place where the next Sun Guardian would be selected.
When they arrived at the Temple of the Sun, they saw a three-legged bird logo on the entrance of the temple, with the three-legged bird in the middle of the sun pattern. Two giants were guarding the entrance of the temple with axes. They were adult sun shepherds, with extremely tall bodies. They held axes in the middle to block their way.
"Stay away, outsiders!"
The two shepherds looked dignified and shouted in a deep voice: "This is a holy place in the temple. Outsiders are not allowed to trespass!"
Hu Ling'er jumped down and said, "It was you, the Sun Guard, who sent us here! Go and inform your clan leader, something big is going to happen!"
"Wait a moment!"
One of the Sun Shepherds immediately turned around, pushed open the door and entered the main hall. After a moment, the Sun Shepherd walked out and said politely, "The Patriarch invites you to come in and watch the ceremony."
When they entered the temple, they suddenly felt how insignificant they were. There gathered giants from the Sun-Shepherd Tribe. They were so tall that when they walked among the giants, their height barely went above their ankles.
These giants were surrounding a huge circular platform, watching the selection below, and exclaimed from time to time. Hu Ling'er jumped up, wanting to see what was happening below, but the railing of the circular platform was too high and she was too short, so even if she jumped five or six feet high, she couldn't see what was happening below.
Hu Ling'er quickly shook her tail, her body floated up, and she could finally see the scene under the stage.
There were many young boys and girls of the Mu Ri tribe standing on both sides, and in the center of the circular platform were three statues. Each statue was a three-legged monster with wings. The body was hunched, and they were carrying a huge furnace on their backs.
The stove was different from others. It was round and hollow all around. There was no medicine or stone in it.
Just then, a strong young man from the Mu Ri tribe cut his wrist and let his blood flow into the huge round furnace. He then activated the true fire and tried to light the furnace.
A ball of flame soon appeared in the furnace, and the flame grew bigger and bigger. Suddenly, a blazing light burst out from the hollows around the round furnace, becoming more and more dazzling.
Waves of obscure and terrifying fluctuations emerged from the furnace, and there were echoes of soul-stirring roars like those of strange beasts.
The sun shepherds around showed joy, but at this moment the light suddenly dimmed and the fire went out.
"Next!"
Another incredibly strong girl stepped forward and cut her wrist. This girl also failed, but she was better than the boy just now. A strange image of a fire dragon coiled in the fire actually emerged.
However, this vision appeared very briefly and disappeared in a flash.
Hu Ling'er looked across, where the old patriarch of the Mu Ri tribe and several white-haired elders were watching the test below. Hu Ling'er's heart moved slightly, and she flew over directly.
I only heard an elder say: "Pure Yang body is very difficult to find. In the past, there was Jingjing, who supported it for ten years. Now if we can't find another pure Yang body, I'm afraid tonight will be the day when the Sunwell will be breached."
Several elders looked worried. Without pure yang bodies, they could not withstand the terrifying and powerful force of the Sun Boat. Even if they forcibly grasped the power of the Sun Boat, they would soon be burned to death by the power of the Sun Boat!
"There are too few pure yang bodies."
The old patriarch sighed and said, "If I can't find it, I will take control of the Sun Boat and fight those foreign demons!"
His physique is not a pure yang body, but his cultivation is strong and he can hold on for a while longer.
Below, young boys and girls tried to light the solar furnace, but all ended in failure, making the elders look solemn.
Ling Yuxiu and others came to the location where the old patriarch was. The old patriarch raised his hand, and a bluestone slab flew up from under their feet, lifting them and Long Qilin up and allowing them to watch the ceremony.
"Chief, Emperor Qin is helping you light the sun. If the sun is ignited, I'm afraid it will burn him to ashes!"
Ling Yuxiu said quickly: "Please ask the clan leader to go and lend a helping hand to the Emperor!"
But she was also smart and knew that it would be difficult to convince the patriarch of the Mu Ri tribe with any other identity, so she directly brought out the identity of Qin Mu Ren Huang.
The old clan leader shook his head and said, "He can't light the sun. That sun has gone out. It needs the pure Yang God of Fire to appear in the world to light it. You can rest assured that Qin Xiaoyou can't even get close to the sun, not to mention that he can't light it. It's too hot there. Even if the sun is extinguished, its power is extraordinary. You see."
He raised his hand, his arm as long as a flying bridge, pointing steadily downwards, and said: "We the Sun Shepherds select Sun Guardians. We need people who are born pure yang to use their pure yang blood, supplemented by true fire, to ignite the solar furnace. The solar furnace is just an ordinary treasure. It is so difficult to ignite it, let alone ignite the sun."
Ling Yuxiu said: "The Emperor Qin has a divine eye, maybe it can really..."
The old patriarch interrupted her and said, "In order to ignite the sun, many of us in the Sun-Shepherding Clan have sought the divine eye and divine blood over the years, but without exception, we have all failed. No need to say more, just watch the ceremony."
Ling Yuxiu was furious: "We came here to help you light the sun with all our heart, asking you for help, but you were unwilling to help. Aren't you afraid of making others feel disappointed by doing this, Sun Shepherd?"
The old patriarch looked at her and said seriously, "It's not that my Sun Shepherds are unreasonable, but we must select the next Sun Guardian. After the sun sets, darkness invades, and that is when the Sun Guardian's soul returns to the Sun Boat, and she can no longer hold on. Without the Sun Guardian, my Sun Shepherds will definitely not be able to resist the invasion of evil demons. The Moon Shepherds have been extinct. If the Sun Shepherds are extinct again, and those demon gods control the Great Ruins, do you think the world outside the Great Ruins can still resist them? Right now, it is crucial to select the next Sun Guardian!"
Ling Yuxiu was stunned.
Si Yunxiang sneered and said, "Even if you choose the next Sun Guardian, what can you do? Won't you still die in the Sun Boat and be assimilated and devoured by it?"
The old patriarch said solemnly: "It is a worthy death to be able to die for the protection of the people and the Great Ruins."
An elder said at the side: "Don't worry, my friends, Qin will be fine. He can't get close to the black sun, so he will retreat."
The other elders nodded one after another. At this moment, a huge wave suddenly came. The old clan leader and the elders couldn't help but change their faces. They stood up in a hurry, showing shock: "This wave is... the extinguished sun! Damn it! Little friend Qin!"
Boom!
The old patriarch and several elders soared into the sky, and the towering hall of the Temple of the Sun was suddenly hit by these old giants, leaving a big hole. Hu Ling'er shouted hurriedly, and the dragon unicorn immediately carried them up into the sky, flew out of the hall through the big hole, and looked up into the sky.
The sun is blinding.
The big black sun disappeared, and was replaced by a sun flashing with yellow and white light, wantonly exerting rolling heat.
"Nothing will happen to you, right?"
Hu Ling'er hurriedly asked Long Qilin to fly towards the sun. Ling Yuxiu also became anxious and urged Long Qilin again and again. Si Yunxiang was overjoyed: "I am finally going to become a pretty widow..."
They flew to the middle of the sky, and suddenly the dragon unicorn turned and flew towards the pillars below. Everyone was startled and looked down, only to see two figures and several dragons on the ground.
The dragon unicorn landed and the three girls jumped down quickly, only to see Qin Mu pulling a skinny girl out of the sun boat and laying her flat on the ground.
Ling Yuxiu quickly stepped forward and said, "Cowherd, you..."
"Hush."
Qin Mu raised his finger and whispered, "She fainted. I am good at treating girls. I became famous as a miracle doctor in Huaxiang."
Ling Yuxiu pinched him hard under the armpit and complained, "I'm so worried!"
Qin Mu smiled and said, "I told you there will be no danger. Go!"
Layers of formation patterns rotated in his eyes, and he opened his Danxiao Sky Eye. Then he activated the Dragon Controlling Technique. A dragon flew over, landed on him, lay on his shoulders, and the dragon's body coiled around his waist.
Qin Mu borrowed the dragon energy from the dragon, and his cultivation level skyrocketed. Layers of array patterns continued to emerge around his pupils. He directly opened the Nine Heavens Eye and checked Yan Jingjing's body.
After a while, he released the Dragon Taming Technique, and the layers of heaven and earth in his eyes dissipated, but the dragon did not get off his shoulder, but continued to lie there, quite comfortably.
"Maha." The dragon opened its mouth and yawned, feeling drowsy.
Hu Ling'er ran over quickly, grabbed the corner of Qin Mu's clothes and climbed up: "Go down, go down! Go to sleep, this is my place!"
The dragon had no choice but to slip down.
Hu Ling'er sat on Qin Mu's shoulder, shaking her two feet and wagging her snow-white tail proudly behind her.
Qin Mu pondered for a moment and said, "Ling'er, I'll read the prescription and you go get the medicine."
Hu Ling'er hummed, and transformed from a little girl into a little fox, and slid into his Taotie bag. The bag was opened, and Qin Mu read the names of the herbs one by one, and whirlwinds from the Taotie bag carried the herbs out.
Seeing how closely they cooperated, Ling Yuxiu felt a little jealous of the little fox. She glanced at Si Yunxiang and said with a smile, "The pretty widow is gone."
Si Yunxiang said with a smile: "The leader will kill himself sooner or later if he plays like this. There will be plenty of opportunities for him to become a pretty widow."
Qin Mu refined several furnaces of elixirs and gave them to the unconscious Yan Jingjing. He sorted the remaining elixirs. At this moment, the old clan leader and several elders flew over from the side of the sun and shouted from afar: "We didn't find little friend Qin. Most likely he has been burned to ashes..."
Before they finished speaking, they saw Qin Mu.
The elders could hardly hide their shock. Qin Mu sorted the pills and said, "Ling'er, give her one portion in the morning and evening. Patriarch, I have fulfilled your mission."
The old patriarch suppressed his trembling heart and asked quickly: "How did Qin Xiaoyou light the sun? And how did you come back alive?"
Qin Mu smiled and said, "It's very simple. I used the Dragon Controlling Technique to let several fire dragons lend me their magic power, then I adjusted the power of the Sun Jade Eye to the maximum and threw it into the black sun, and then the black sun was ignited."
He said it lightly, but the old patriarch knew how much Qin Mu had paid. The treasure that could ignite the black sun must be extraordinary, and Qin Mu gave it up without any hesitation.
He couldn't help but feel guilty. Qin Mu was so selfless, but he was unwilling to come just now. The comparison between the two made him feel ashamed.
"Sister Jing needs to rest for a few days. Her body has lost too much energy. My elixir is just to replenish her vitality."
Qin Mu's face was solemn, and he said, "She has lost too much life, and it is difficult to replenish her life. I can only help her recuperate first so that her condition does not get worse."
The old clan leader breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Saving my life is already a great favor. What's more, Qin Xiaoyou helped my Sun Clan light the sun. This great favor will never be forgotten. Qin Xiaoyou, Jing'er is in a coma, and we need to select a Sun Guardian to resist the invasion of the foreign demon gods tonight. Please go to the ceremony... No!"
Qin Mu's palm touched a pillar. The old patriarch's face changed drastically and he hurried to stop him, but he was a step too late. Qin Mu's palm had already landed on the surface of the pillar.
Suddenly, tremendous energy exploded and rushed towards Qin Mu. In an instant, Qin Mu roared angrily, and a raging fire burned around his body. His body became bigger and bigger, and his other arm involuntarily grabbed another pillar.
His muscles swelled up, and two arms emerged from his armpits. With two snaps, he grasped the other two pillars, and in an instant he turned into a god bathed in the true fire of the sun!
Waves of divine power surged like waves, one after another, hitting in all directions, making people feel as if standing in the midst of raging waves.
The old patriarch protected Hu Ling'er, Ling Yuxiu and others, with a dull look in his eyes, looking up at the hundred-foot-tall giant. Suddenly, he came to his senses and touched the ground with one knee.
He bowed his head and said, "Your Highness."
Behind him, the elders also knelt on one knee and bowed their heads: "Your Highness."
Ling Yuxiu, Si Yunxiang and others were puzzled, but they saw the giants of the Mu Ri tribe coming silently, coming to the surroundings of the four pillars, and kneeling on one knee.
"Your Highness," they said.
Si Yunxiang leaned close to Ling Yuxiu's ear and whispered, "Princess Xiu, it seems that the cowherd's background is more important than yours..."
