Please Kill the Demon Chapter 598

  Chapter 598 Then you will be behind me [Ask for a monthly pass! 】

  The Qinghong Banquet was held in the main hall of the imperial palace, and all civil and military officials had arrived an hour before the banquet to enter the imperial city and wait. For the royal family and officials, this grand event held once every twelve years is somewhat stronger in scale and importance than the banquet in the palace during the Chinese New Year.

   It's just that this time the atmosphere in the palace is a little chilly, and there is obviously something strange. Cautious officials did not dare to look left and right, but walked their own way in silence; bolder ones pried around quietly, and the information they got was often unclear.

  The palace was killing people everywhere, Xiao Wuyin revealed all the names that Ying Huo had inserted in, and the guards of the Yelong palace were mobilized, but they were executed on the spot if they resisted. Then someone followed closely behind to sweep and wash the ground, and the surroundings would be restored to their original state in a blink of an eye.

   Within an hour, the whole thing was over.

  When the officials entered the hall, all they saw was a magnificent scene.

  The main hall of the imperial city is extremely spacious and divided into two steps. The first wide steps under the dragon chair are the seats for banquets at the Xianmen Gate. Further down is the main hall, although the princes and ministers do not eat Qinghong meat, they will also have their delicious food and wine.

  First the royal family and all the officials were seated, and then the team of the Shushan faction was supposed to go to the hall.

  This time, due to a change, Chu Liang was temporarily transferred away, and he didn't know much about the ceremony process of the Qinghong Banquet. The palace man in charge of this matter guessed that there might be difficulties, but he didn't expect that the difficulties came from another person.

   "All the immortal masters of Shushan, you can come with me." Rolex came in person and greeted everyone to enter.

   Then I saw two groups of people standing up in the hall.

  The team on the left is Emperor Feng, leading Chu Liang and Jiang Yuebai.

  The team on the right is Wang Xuanling, with Xu Ziyang and Ling Ao.

   "This..." Rolex didn't dare to bluntly say that there was an extra imperial female phoenix, so he could only ask: "Is there an extra person in our team?"

   "Not many." Emperor Nvfeng waved her hand and said, "Our Shushan is divided into two teams this time."

   "We are the Shushan first team." Wang Xuanling said first.

  Empress Feng turned her head and glared at him, saying: "Then we are the zero team of Shushan!"

   "Huh!" Pharaoh shook his sleeves angrily.

   "Huh!" The emperor turned around angrily.

  Before Rolex, the two had been arguing about this issue for a long time. If it weren't for the palace, they might have already solved it. The four juniors behind him had no choice but to be trembling, not daring to speak.

   "This..." Rolex wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said with a smile: "This is the first time I heard that this thing is divided into zero and one...Please wait a moment, and I will report to Your Majesty first."

   After finishing speaking, the old **** hurried back to the main hall and reported the situation to the emperor first.

   It stands to reason that he ranks second among the four strong men, and he is the emperor's personal manager. He has more power than Yao Dengxian in the harem alone. There is no need to ask the emperor for such things. What's more, the emperor just experienced the betrayal of his wife... two, he must be in a bad mood.

  But to deal with it normally, he just waved his hand, and it's fine if he doesn't agree. At the beginning, Zhu Xianmen had already reported the number of people participating in the banquet, how can there be any reason to add people to eat after winning the first prize?

  But he didn't dare to offend this person who was looting, so he hurried back to report.

   "Hiss..." The emperor frowned when he heard this situation, "My second aunt...forget it, let her go."

   "Your Majesty, that will change the rules of the ancestors." Lao Santai reminded.

"She is closer to my ancestors than me. I want to find her!" The emperor said impatiently, "I already have a headache, so don't bother me with this kind of thing anymore. Ah yes, since there is one more person, how about this year?" Let's kill one more Qinghong at the Qinghong Banquet.”

   "Your Majesty, five people eat one Qinghong, and if there is one more person, do you have to kill one more?" Lao Santai asked in surprise.

   "Five people? Maybe it's enough to eat elsewhere." The emperor smiled, "Sixty years ago, I was not very old, but I clearly remember that everyone was not full from that meal..."

He shook his head: "Forget it, my second aunt has made great contributions today. If she hadn't discovered the corpse in advance, the Qinghong Banquet would definitely not have been held. Her apprentice has worked hard and made great achievements. It's okay to eat one more Qinghong. "

   "But this..." Lao Santai wondered: "If we make an exception today and kill one more Qinghong, the next Xianmen Conference..."

   "If you don't tell me, who would know?" The emperor frowned and said, "Anyway, Qinghong will show his face first, and it will be presented later after the plate is divided. This year, Qinghong in the palace has been raised well, so it doesn't matter if there is more meat."

   "Yes, this servant understands." Lao Santai also said: "Qinghong has been raised well this year, two more feet, two more wings... It's nothing."

  He was about to step back, but before he could turn around, the emperor suddenly raised his hand again and said, "By the way, this time the Qinghong Banquet uses wine that is not easy to get drunk."

   A moment later, there was a long drumming sound coming from the square outside the main hall. In the middle of the grand procession, two groups of people walked with great courage and high spirits.

   It is the "two" teams of Shushan.

   A group of six people walked to the main entrance of the main hall and were stopped.

  The emperor's daughter Feng asked: "Isn't the banquet open? Why aren't you allowed in?"

   "Before Qinghong's banquet, we must kill the four evil spirits." Jiang Yuebai reminded in a low voice.

   "Slay the Four Evils?" Chu Liang also wondered, "What is that?"

"You weren't there when the people from the Cai Palace explained it. This is the ceremony before Qinghong's banquet." Ling Ao said: "The four immortal disciples who won the first prize killed four kinds of evil spirits, 'demons, demons, ghosts, and monsters' respectively, before entering the banquet. , so as to demonstrate the martial virtues of the human race."

  Wang Xuanling looked at Di Nv Feng, "Your apprentice wasn't there during the explanation, wasn't you?"

  Empress Feng raised her chest and raised her head, and said loudly, "I forgot!"

  Chu Liangxin said that you don't have to be so proud, and then went back and whispered to Jiang Yuebai before she understood it in detail.

   It turns out that this process comes from the coming-of-age ceremony of the Xia family of the royal family. When the Xia family was one of the three great families, martial arts were very abundant.

  They will arrange a fight for the family disciples when they become adults. The targets are usually demons and evil spirits that are chosen to do evil from far and near.

  Of course, those who fail can also get the honor of being buried in the ancestral grave.

   Afterwards, the Xia family won the battle and the Yu Dynasty established the Dingding. This ceremony was also included in the process of the Qinghong Banquet.

  It means that the young heroes who win the championship in the fairy gate not only want to defeat their own race, but also want to kill evil spirits and guard the human race.

  Of course, the choice of Xie Chong at this time will not be some powerful monster, asking you to fight to the death. Most of them are those who have been recently arrested for crimes and are not that strong, and they are selected and sent by the Jian Guofu.

   Just go through a cutscene, kill the evil and enter the palace, and then you can accept the applause of civil and military officials on both sides of the hall, full of glory.

   While speaking, the prison cart holding the four kinds of evil spirits has already arrived.

  In the first prison car was a wild boar spirit with a broken tusk, wearing armor, with scarlet eyes and bloodthirsty smell all over his body.

   "Wild boar spirit, who destroyed villages and killed people on the frontier of the Western Regions, should be punished as a crime."

  The little **** next to him held a scroll and introduced loudly.

  In the second prison car was a dark ape, which looked like a human being, but he had completely lost his mind. Even in the prison car, he was still frantically tearing the seals around him.

"The demonic ape is a monster refined by the cultivators of the Demon Sect. It exists only for killing. The demonic cultivators placed this thing in Changling City in the Northern Territory with the intention of slaughtering the people. Thanks to the timely arrival of the cultivators of the Jianguo Mansion, the catastrophe was averted." .”

  In the third prison car, there is a nearly transparent yin thing, the height and size of a child, a pair of protruding terrifying eyeballs, sharp mouth and fangs.

   "Human-faced mandrill, an extremely rare ghost, sinister and cunning, with a ferocious nature, murdered people in the Western Regions, wandered for more than 70 days before being arrested by the Jian Guofu."

  In the fourth prison car, there is a monster with pure black fur and the shape of a cheetah. The difference is that this monster has four wings and three tails, which is intimidating.

   "Three-tailed flying leopard, this monster originally lived in the sea. After landing in the Eastern Region, it disturbed more than ten cities and was finally arrested."

  After reading the four evils, the little **** said loudly again: "Please four disciples of the immortal sect kill the four evils one by one!"

  The first prison car was slowly pushed forward, and the wild boar spirit seemed to sense that his death was approaching, and began to crazily hit the prison car, making loud noises.

  Jiang Yuebai looked at Chu Liang with wonderful eyes. The first person who cut off the evil and entered the palace was naturally the champion of the immortal sect.

  Unexpectedly, Chu Liang shook her hand lightly, and said, "This is the first one, you should go."

   "Huh?" Jiang Yuebai was puzzled.

Chu Liang smiled and said: "You are the chief of Shushan Mountain, representing the face of Shushan Mountain. You didn't give me the number one scholar of Laoshizi Xianmen. I had already enjoyed enough honor that day. Without your leadership, It is definitely a delusion to win the title of the Immortal Gate. Today, if Zhanxie enters the palace, you should be the first to go no matter what you say."

  Jiang Yuebai also smiled slightly, "Okay."

   After finishing speaking, he stepped forward, and the seal on the prison car was lifted at the same time. The wild boar spirit flew out, showing its fierce face, and roared, "Oh—"

  But it only roared halfway before it was cut in half by a bright sword light.

  Jiang Yue's white clothes are not stained with dust, and she floats into the palace.

  The children of the royal family and all the civil and military officials in the palace cheered and applauded. At the same time, they were a little surprised that this year's number one scholar of the immortal sect was not the first to enter the palace, which is rare.

  Looking at the situation just now, Chu Liang is not only a genius, but also knows how to be humble, which is really rare.

  Jiang Yuebai walked through the long road in the main hall, boarded the high steps and took a seat, so he should be the second person.

   But before that, Chu Liang had already looked at Xu Ziyang, "Brother Xu, the second person to enter the palace is up to you."

   "How did this happen?" Xu Ziyang immediately said: "There is nothing wrong with the chief going first, but for the rest, you have made the most contributions this time. Without you, there would be no fairy gate to win the championship..."

"Senior brother Xu!" Chu Liang grabbed Xu Ziyang's arm and said earnestly, "You are older than me and have given me a lot of advice. I, Yinjianfeng, have no senior brother, so I have always regarded you as my own senior brother. You have always been The person I respect the most! Without you in this Xianmen Conference, there would be no such thing as Xianmen winning the championship. Each of us is very important! This time is such an important occasion, I will let you go no matter what In front of me!"

  Seeing his excitement and sincerity, Xu Ziyang was quite moved, and immediately patted Chu Liang's arm, and strode forward.

  The devil ape was released from the prison car, and Xu Ziyang killed it with a single sword strike, scoff—

   This time when he entered the palace again, he caused even more surprises.

  Chu Liang not only let Jiang Yuebai go, but also Xu Ziyang? This cannot be said to be humility, it is simply high-spirited.

   When Chu Liang turned his head again, Ling Ao said, "I..."

   After saying only one word, Chu Liang nodded, "Then you should stay behind me."
