The Far Sea was in front, with Xiu'er in the middle, far bright, and Yuan Zhi divided into two sides. Three monks escorted the Xiu'er out of the Fire Phoenix Army camp like they were escorting them from both sides, and then walked towards the Moqiu Army array.

They seemed to be escorting him, but in reality, they were protecting him. When they stepped into the Moqiu Army Army Formation, Xiu'er could almost feel the eyes of the soldiers piercing onto him. If not for the few monks accompanying them, these soldiers could have easily torn him apart just by looking at them. But now, one by one, they lowered their heads, making way for the monks. No matter how much she hated Xiu'er, she would only hastily raise his head and stare at Xiu'er viciously before quickly lowering his head.

Monks have a high status. They don't produce, they don't know martial arts, they don't kill people, they don't even curse people. But they were the most pious believers of the Beast God, and the most reliable servants of the Lord Messenger of God. If in the hearts of the soldiers, the Beast God held the highest position, and their families, friends, honor, etc., held the other places, then in the hearts of the monks, there was nothing else but the Beast God. No one could be compared to this level of devotion.

As Yuanhai was walking at the front, every time he reached, the soldiers couldn't help but open up a path for him. There was a trace of deep admiration on Yuanhai's smiling face. His admiration for the Xiu'er.

These were the most elite troops under the Ninth Tiger King. Last night's humiliation had caused their fighting spirit to soar to the sky. Although they had cleared the path, their murderous gazes were still there, and the hatred in their hearts was still there. Far Sea could clearly feel the murderous intent in the soldiers' eyes. Although they were restraining themselves, no one could resist the momentum of tens of thousands of soldiers gathered together.

But the Lord Xiu behind him could.

Other than the commander of the Fire Phoenix Army, Yuanhai didn't know anything else about this Lord Xiu. However, when he was about to leave, the Lord Messenger of God had clearly stated that she wanted to "bring this Lord Xiu to the Beast God Temple safely and with perfect etiquette".

Lord Messenger of God was a cultured and polite person, so he often used the word "please", but adding two prefixes to the word "please" was almost never done. Far away, he would only do it. When he truly brought back Lord Xiu, the performance of this little girl who didn't even look to be twenty behind him was far beyond his expectations.

She passed through the crowd of soldiers without a single glance. She didn't show any signs of fear on her face. The trace of a smile on her face was not an act, but more of a self-confidence.

They successfully passed through the soldiers' formation and arrived in front of a large tent. Yuanhai apologetically saluted to Xiu'er, saying that he wanted to report to him. Xiu'er politely returned the greeting, telling Yuanhai Master to take care of his work first. The politeness between the two of them seemed to have coincidentally met in the most elegant teahouse. It was completely at odds with the somber atmosphere around them.

A moment later, Yuanhai came back and indicated that he had already informed Fourth Tiger King that not only would he not launch an attack at Fire Phoenix Army in the next few days, he would even provide him with all the necessary food in full capacity.

Xiu'er expressed her thanks to Yuanhai, and asked him about how binding Lord Messenger of God's orders were.

Yuan Hai smiled faintly, indicating that the reason why Ninth Tiger King and Tenth Tiger King stayed in Mo Qiu didn't participate in the Phoenix City Pass was probably because they had other plans. But there was only one reason why Fourth Tiger King stayed in the Moqiu State, and that was loyalty.

The Fire Phoenix Army was not far from Mo Qiu, so after they left the Fourth Tiger King's camp, they boarded three horse carriages. The horses were so fast that the wheels were rumbling, and they arrived at the foot of Mo Qiu in less than four hours. Xiu'er followed Yuanhai and the others up the stone steps. As she stood at the entrance of the Moqiu City, he turned his head and looked back, taking a panoramic view of the ten thousand kilometers of prairie. A red sun had already set on the horizon, drawing a golden-red line of light in front of him. Be it during the battles before, or escaping for their lives, Xiu'er had never seen the setting sun in detail before, nor did she have such a view. Now, when she suddenly turned his head, he discovered that the setting sun of Mo Qiu was a little less gentle and beautiful than the setting sun of Fire Phoenix Empire, a little less desolate and desolate than the setting sun of Wulian Mountain Range, and a little less desolate and somber than the setting sun of Phoenix City Pass. Thinking about it, Xiu'er suddenly thought of Kong Sheng, how long had it been since they last watched the sunset together?

Xiu'er looked at the setting sun in a daze. Yuanhai did not urge her, and just quietly stood at the side with her head lowered. After a long while, Xiu'er finally turned around and smiled apologetically at Yuanhai. Hai Yang smiled back at him, then extended her hand in the direction of the city gate, gesturing for him to come over.

At first glance, Moqiu City could not even compare to a slightly larger town called Fire Phoenix Empire. All the buildings were made of stone, and there was nothing special about them. There were no decorations either. The streets were also made of a stone and were narrow. Some parts of the streets had even been polished off, so he believed that if he walked there after the rain, it would be a particularly wonderful feeling.

The people from Moqiu City were also as indifferent as the city was. They smiled and waved, bowed, and greeted the crowd, politely letting the monks and the guests go first. A fat aunt even pulled Yuan Zhi back, saying that she had learned a new type of dessert and would definitely let him bring her back to Lord Messenger of God to taste it. The fat auntie said while handing over a small basket to Yuan Zhi. Yuan Zhi did not decline and thanked the fat aunt with a smile, saying that he would definitely deliver it to the Lord Messenger of God.

Their lives were so dull and their pace was so slow that even Xiu'er found it difficult to adapt to it. However, all of their smiles came from the bottom of their hearts and it hung on their faces.

Xiu'er asked Yuanhai in a soft voice. "Yuanhai Master, could it be that they didn't know what happened last night ~ ~"

Yuanhai smiled and nodded, "They know, they know."

The Xiu'er was curious, "How can she be so calm?"

The corners of Yuanhai's mouth curled up, "Because they believe in Beast God, and believe in Lord Messenger of God." Since Beast God and Lord Messenger of God can take care of everything, what is there to worry about? "

"Then what if ~ ~ if ~ ~ I'm saying if something happens?" Xiu'er was unwilling to let him go.

The curve on the corner of Yuanhai's mouth became even more obvious, "What if ~ ~ If I can't even deal with Beast God, then there won't be any help for me if I have to frown."

Hearing this answer, Xiu'er also laughed, this seemingly unreasonable answer was actually very reasonable.

The entire structure of the Moqiu City was built outwards in a radiating manner, and the highest building in the center of the city was also the Beast God Pagoda. The most grand building under the Beast God Pagoda was the Beast God Temple.

His Beast God Pagoda was completely black, and from a distance, it was impossible to see its thickness, but it was extremely high, like a black sharp sword piercing into the heavens. Especially when the sun was setting in the west and the sky was gradually darkening, his Beast God Pagoda was even merging with the heavens and earth, emitting a kind of desolate and murderous aura.

In fact, it would be more appropriate to call it the Beast God's Pillar. This was because its thickness was only thirty-three meters, but its height was infinite. No one had ever climbed to its peak. Legend has it that this is a heavenly object from the Beast God. "

Xiu'er slightly nodded her head. "So the one under the Beast God Pagoda is the Beast God Temple?"

"That's right, Beast God Temple is the place to offer sacrifices to the Beast God, and also the residence of the Lord Messenger of God and the monks." As Yuanhai said that, he bent down slightly and gestured towards Xiu'er.

The finger tip of the distant ocean was pointing towards that Beast God Temple. Different from Beast God Pagoda, Beast God Temple as a whole was white. The huge white rock was used to build the huge temple almost without much detail. There were a total of twelve gigantic stone pillars in front of him, and they instantly supported the entire structure. Standing beside the stone pillars, Xiu'er was actually not even half as tall as the base of the pillar. The entire building was rough and desolate, causing people to feel a trace of an ancient aura. They couldn't help but admire and admire it in their hearts.

She climbed up the white stone steps, passed through the front hall of the Beast God, and finally reached the main hall of the Beast God. It was different from what Xiu'er had imagined. There were no statues in the hall, and the center was the black base of the Beast God Pagoda.

Seeing the Xiu'er's doubtful gaze, Yuanhai smiled and explained, "The people of Moqiu State have heard it from the heavens and touched it on the ground. The people of Moqiu State believe that this is a miracle the Beast God left behind and it contains the will of the supreme Beast God. Furthermore, the Beast God Wu Xiang, no matter how he looks, doesn't look as dignified as the Beast God, so she might as well not look at all. God is not in your eyes, but in your heart. " With that said, Yuanhai deeply bowed towards the black pillar. Behind him, many monks bowed at the same time, leaving behind a Xiu'er who stood there motionlessly.

Yuanhai was not unhappy that Xiu'er did not greet him with respect. Instead, he straightened her clothes that had become wrinkled because of the greetings, and pointed towards the back of the main hall. "Lord Messenger of God is currently waiting, Lord Xiu, please."

As they walked further, the other monks no longer followed. Only Yuanhai, Yuanliang and Yuan Zhi followed and led the way. After passing through a few side halls, they arrived at a room that looked similar to a side room. The three of them stopped and rushed to the door, "Lord Xiu, please enter." Finished speaking, Yuanhai and Yuanliang stood to the side, with Yuan Zhi standing beside Xiu'er with the basket given to him by the fat aunt.

Before Xiu'er could push open the door, the door had already been opened. Chen Tianming laughed out loud as he walked out, and as he took the basket from Yuan Zhi's hands, he invited him into the room. After bowing to the two of them, the three people from the distant sea left by themselves.

Chen Tianming's room was very simple. There was a curtain in a room to the left side, which should be his bedroom. In the room to the right, there was a desk, a bookshelf, and on the table was a brush and ink. The main house in front of him was even simpler. There were only two wooden stools and a round table. On the round table were a pot of wine, two wine cups and four to five light dishes. If they did not see it with their own eyes, who would have known that Lord Messenger of God, who was ranked above tens of thousands of people in Moqiu State, would actually live in such a bitter and quiet place?

Chen Tianming casually placed the basket on the round table, then turned to Xiu'er and said," Lord Xiu, please take a seat. It's been a while since I've had a meal, what's wrong with that, Lord Xiu please forgive me. " He acted like a normal uncle next door.

Seeing him like that, the Xiu'er did not hold back, she sat behind the wooden chair, directly using her chopsticks to pick up a piece of dish and savor it. The moment she ate, she let out a loud breath, and after eating a few mouthfuls of each dish, she finally apologized to Chen Tianming with her face slightly reddened, saying that she was lacking in manners.

Chen Tianming laughed out loud, taking the wine pot and pouring wine into both of their cups, he raised his wine cup and gave it to the Xiu'er, "Lord Xiu has it easy to eat, drink ~ ~ this old man will first toast the Lord Xiu ~ ~"

Xiu'er raised his glass and lightly clinked it against his, and the two of them simultaneously drank.

The old and young began to eat and drink like this, chatting about family matters from time to time. They were as intimate as uncles and uncles, whom they hadn't seen for a long time. No one would have thought that the old one was the Lord Messenger of God from the Moqiu State. The young one had led his sworn enemy's army to sweep through almost half of the land, even if the relationship between the two wasn't at the same level as fire and water, it wouldn't be too far off.

After drinking a few cups, half of the food on the table had been eaten too. Xiu'er put down her chopsticks, took the wine pot and poured some wine into the cups of the two, then looked at Chen Tianming and asked: "Lord Messenger of God, since you have drank, and eaten, shouldn't we talk about the proper matters now?"

Chen Tianming smiled faintly: "What does Lord Xiu want to talk about?"

Xiu'er was startled, then immediately asked back, "Didn't Lord Messenger of God ask me to come?"

"Lord Xiu, if this old man does not invite you, would you not want to come?" Chen Tianming laughed and waved his hands, "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Lord Xiu must want to ask, why did this old man specially invite you here when the two armies were battling each other?

Xiu'er did not say anything, she stared at Chen Tianming and nodded.

Chen Tianming also stared at Xiu'er without blinking, and said slowly, "Lord Xiu, did you really come to Mo Qiu just to help out the Phoenix City Pass? You don't even have a little bit of selfish desire? "

Without waiting for Xiu'er's reply, Chen Tianming continued, "Don't lie to me, I am a Messenger of God. I have the power of the Beast God in my body, so I can feel your desire for this Beast God's tomb. This kind of desire was not formed in a day or a night, nor was it the desire to occupy, kill, and accomplish something. It was the attraction, or perhaps desire, in the depths of one's soul. "

"You!" Xiu'er's flower face changed color

Chen Tianming smiled lightly. "I said, don't lie to me, I can see through it. At that time, I had a faint feeling in my heart that someone was looking for me or Beast God. But the feeling was so hazy that I couldn't catch it or guess. Later on, you led your army to enter the borders of the Mo Qiu territory, so this feeling became more and more obvious. To tell the truth, I didn't think of you as a member of the army at first. Later on, after you joined the Ninth Tiger King and the army mixed in with them neared the Moqiu City, I was finally certain that the person I was looking for was you. Or you're the one who's coming to see me. I know that you and Beast God have some sort of relationship that I don't understand, and I am the Messenger of God. Beast God's matter is fate to me, so I ordered my troops to only be besieged and not to attack. Even if the price is to return the Fire Phoenix Army that was running rampant for a long time back to the Fire Phoenix Nation, I would still not hesitate to do so. "

After saying that, Chen Tianming took up his wine cup and finished it in one gulp, then turned to look at Xiu'er and smiled: "Lord Xiu, this old man is done, it's your turn."
