Chapter 3375 The root of everything
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
Xia Houqi ignored the shouts behind him.
He ran like crazy towards the outside of the Wang Temple.
Behind the scenes, the Bailing tablets placed on the Wang Temple collapsed.
He took off and ran away for an unknown amount of time.
Behind him, Concubine Qing's voice had long since disappeared.
Xia Houqi was still in shock. He turned around and took a look at Wang Temple.
But looking at it, Xia Houqi felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
The ancient coffin followed him strangely, like a shadow.
"Get out of here, get out of here! Who are you and why do you want to harm me?"
Seeing the ancient coffin covered with blood-colored lines, Xia Houqi suddenly realized.
The dream was actually real, and the sacrifices and the late emperor were all lies.
What kind of evil spirit did he release in the underground palace? This ancient coffin actually needs to suck human blood in order to truly revive.
"Xia Houqi, I am your ancestor. The blood of countless people was used to open up Daxia, and the same is true for reviving Daxia. The Dark Coffin is about to awaken, and in the end, I will use your true dragon body and true dragon
Soul, come and awaken the underworld coffin."
Xiahou Ke's voice floated out from the ancient coffin.
After that, the ancient coffin fell from the sky and penetrated Xia Houqi's body.
At that moment, Xia Houqi felt that his whole soul had been penetrated.
His vision went dark and he couldn't see anything clearly.
"When I came, I was already at Xiayang Palace and I was unscathed. It all felt like a dream."
Xia Houqi said in a deep voice as if he was talking in a dream.
But he knew that it was not a dream.
Just because, the moment he opened his eyes, he saw Xiahou Ke's token placed next to him.
"A dark line appeared on my right arm, the size of a palm. After that, someone discovered the body of Concubine Qing in the Leng Palace. Her death was exactly the same as that of the palace maid and eunuch who was discovered a few days ago. No.
No one knows how she died. Only I know that she died by my hands. I had people take her out of the palace, and then I returned to the Wang Temple, but the ancient coffin disappeared."
Xia Houqi's voice was full of bitterness.
He had no affection at all for Concubine Qing, but she died because of him.
After that, Xia Houqi did not give up and went to the underground palace again.
"When I wanted to look for the underground palace again, I discovered that the underground palace and the entrance to the underground palace had disappeared. Since then, I have often been in a trance. In the words of the people in the palace, I have gone crazy."
Xia Houqi also knew whether the ancient coffin that entered his body would cause harm again.
He forced himself not to fall asleep, wanting to stay awake and prevent the dark coffin in his body from harming others.
But as time went by, his physical condition became worse and worse.
The influence of the Dark Coffin on it is also growing.
Under pressure, he told the Queen Mother about this. When the Queen Mother learned about it, she was also very frightened.
She secretly found a monk from Nanwu Mountain and tried to ward off evil spirits for him, but it was of no use.
As Xia Houqi's "madness" lasted longer and longer, the situation in the entire summer palace also changed.
First, the underworld patterns appeared in Xia Yang Palace, and then those underworld patterns also appeared on the walls of Xia Yang Palace.
"I can't control the Dark Coffin at all, but I have to say that its appearance has resisted the Bagua Tianmen to a certain extent. Originally, Zhu Nianyu wanted to replace all the guards in the palace with Tianmen disciples, but due to the Ming pattern,
, many Tianmen disciples were killed for no reason in the palace. Zhu Nianyu had no choice but to reserve part of his troops for me."
Although Xia Houqi hated and avoided those dark patterns, he also realized that in front of the powerful Gu Yuehai and Bagua Tianmen, he would be even more helpless without the protection of the dark patterns.
But Xia Houqi also knew that if he kept at the mercy of Ming Coffin, one day he would turn into a murderous maniac.
Just because he has discovered that the source of power of those dark patterns is blood and Yuanli.
The constant deaths of people in the summer palace are the best evidence.
At this time, a piece of news came that completely destroyed Xia Houqi.
He learned that Ye Lingyue died in the battle in the God Realm.
In the past few years, since Xia Houqi ascended the throne, the force that supported his efforts was Ye Lingyue.
Now, Ye Lingyue is dead.
Xia Houqi felt that all his thoughts were lost and he no longer had the courage to live.
He fell deeper and deeper into the abyss of despair. At that time, Luo Qing and Zeng Xiaoyu entered the palace.
At that time, Xiahou Qi had been controlled by Xiahou Ke most of the time.
"So, there have always been two forces controlling you, one is Xiahou Ke, and the other is the Dark Coffin in your body?"
Ye Lingyue couldn't help but be surprised after hearing Xia Houqi's words.
"Yes, the power of the underworld coffin was not strong at first. It could only control my body. More often, it was Xiahou Ke who bewitched my soul. That day, when the female alchemist named Zeng Xiaoyu took action, Xiahou Ke realized
, she is the blood of Xuanyin. For Ming Coffin, the blood of Xuanyin is undoubtedly a great tonic. He wants to take Zeng Xiaoyu’s blood."
Xia Houqi didn't know at that time that Zeng Xiaoyu and Ye Lingyue were related.
For Xia Houqi, there is no difference between the death of one person and the death of two people.
Until Ye Lingyue took action, Ye Lingyue's talisman directly killed Xiahou Ke's soul inhabiting the spirit tablet.
"This was unintentional. In fact, I was in Xiayang Palace that day."
Ye Lingyue also didn't expect that there was such a complicated relationship.
"When you took action, I also noticed your aura for a while. But soon, the aura disappeared."
After Xiahou Ke died, Xiahou Qi regained some consciousness.
He wanted to find Ye Lingyue's aura, but the dark coffin in his body became more active after Xiahou Ke disappeared.
Xia Houqi's physical body could not bear the load and he passed out.
"You also know what happened next. The people from Yaochi Xianxie used the soul lamp to gather my soul. But I knew that I couldn't resist the effect of the underworld coffin in my body, and I already had the intention to die. When I was dying,
A song from a past life reminds me of the time when I first met you."
Xia Houqi was filled with emotion.
It can be said that everything is destined somehow.
Ye Lingyue happened to arrive at Xiayang Palace at that time, wanting to find the weird spiritual tablet.
That song from his past life made Xia Houqi's mental energy condense like never before.
He also sensed Ye Lingyue's aura.
After Xia Houqi discovered Ye Lingyue, he was so happy that he desperately left his body and went to look for Ye Lingyue.
"After my soul discovered you, I happened to meet Master Nan Fourteen and others arriving. In order to avoid being discovered by him, I secretly hid in the spirit tablet and you brought it back."
Xia Houqi's words made Ye Lingyue sigh.
"Thousands of mistakes are all my fault. If I hadn't been unwilling for a moment and opened the underground palace, the terrible underworld coffin would not have appeared, and the summer palace would not have turned into this."
