Light Barrier

Chapter 977

"I know you are very disappointed in Xizhou."

"But...if you really regard yourself as a 'goddess,' then you should step out."

Yuan Yang said: "You are trapped in the secret prison, and you can't do anything."

Meng Xizhou was very calm: "Hand over the 【Holy Book】. At that time, I can't do anything."

She knew very well how contagious the 【Holy Book】 was.

The number of holy books currently held by the Church of Light is not enough to cause turmoil...but if they are allowed to take a few more pages, the situation will be different. These people will not consider the consequences, launch a war against Nanzhou, and eventually convert a large number of believer.

Trapped in the secret prison, she really couldn't do anything.

But the only thing she could do was to keep the 【Holy Book】.

"Everything, since it exists, is reasonable..."

Yuan Yang sighed and said: "The ancestor left such pages in the Forbidden Library, which means that he knew that one day we can use it."

"Is this what those who believe in the light should do?"

Meng Xizhou said: "I have my own insistence on this matter."

Yuan Yang fell silent.

"I know I can't convince you."

He smiled, "So the original plan is... I will be taken into a secret cell and tortured in front of you. Then Yao Jin will use my life as a bargaining chip in exchange for a page of 【Holy Book】. If you agree , then there will be the next threat.”

Meng Xizhou felt a little sour in his heart.

She never thought that the mentor she had trusted for so many years would be willing to collaborate with Yao Jin to commit such a fraud.

"I know, this is bad."

The voice on the other side of the Black Silver Secret Prison was very sad: "But if you can successfully take out the remaining holy books, the Secret Prison will let you go...so I am willing to perform this task."

"But you were exposed."

Meng Xizhou took a breath and tried to keep his voice cold: "Yao Jin doesn't care about the success of this mission at all. He doesn't care about the 【Holy Book】 as much as you think."

A brief moment of silence.

Yuan Yang smiled: "Perhaps he has been in the dark for too long, and he wants to stand in the light and stand longer."

He can actually understand Yao Jin's approach.

Twenty years ago.

The shadows trained by the temple were still children.

He once went to Xihaidu to see the children practicing hard under the guidance of Mu Xin. The last ray of sunset would be absorbed by the "sacred mountain", so the long night at Xihaidu always came very early. These children could see The time to reach the light is very short. They all hope that they can grow up as soon as possible and go to the bright city full of miracles as soon as possible. However, they do not know that from the moment they go to the bright city, their lives are truly dominated by darkness. Shrouded surrounded.

Yuan Yang remembered the changes in the children's eyes.

He knew what was hidden deep in Yao Jin's eyes.

After dealing with the secret prison day and night for so many years, even an ordinary person will become a madman.

"So, have you changed your strategy now?"

Meng Xizhou's voice was calm: "Or... being exposed is just part of the plan?"

Yuan Yang was stunned.

He just chuckled quietly to himself.

Some things, once destroyed, cannot be rebuilt.

After Yao Jin said those words, the master-disciple relationship over the past twenty years no longer existed. This was something that no amount of words he could say could make up for it.

Meng Xizhou is a smart man and extremely determined.

In order to protect the 【Holy Book】, she will no longer believe a word that comes out of her mouth.

"Perhaps this is really part of Yao Jin's plan."

Yuan Yang closed his eyes and said bitterly: "When the secret prison mission began, my identity was knocked to the bottom. In this dark place, he changed his previous plan and imprisoned me deeply... and then the 'torture' , 'interrogation', and even 'forcement' can be carried out legitimately."

The plan changed, but it didn’t change either.

In order to make Meng Xizhou willingly hand over the 【Holy Book】, Yao Jin directly exposed Yuan Yang's purpose.

What happens after that is the same as before.

It's just that this matter ended up being nothing.

The senior brother said that he was seriously ill and needed the blood of the "immortal".

As for Lord God, he was also damaged and needed a lot of faith... The war in Beizhou was Lin's family affair. Xizhou did not instigate the trouble, but only took some profits from it. If he didn't do this, he would die.

Lord Kamizo, maybe you will too.

It was also from that day.

Yuan Yang embarked on a path leading to darkness. He personally collected the "blood of the immortal" for his senior brothers, and for the sake of faith, he passed on the church's spiritual method of cultivating followers.

The first person he contacted was Dongze Shozo.

After many years, lying in the secret prison, Yuan Yang recalled these past events and realized that he had been walking in the darkness for a long time.

This is a path from which there is no turning back.

During these two long years, he only saw a different kind of hope in the Goddess of Light. He cultivated Meng Xizhou and supported the Meng family. He knew clearly that Meng Xiao was the 【immortal】 that his senior brother needed, but he still worked hard. Support and help the latter ascend to the position of the Holy Son... Only in this way can we avoid the fate of "being sucked out of blood".

Only at the end.

This ray of light was still blocked by the darkness in my heart.

Yuan Yang looked above his head quietly.

He actually knew where and why his senior brother's "illness" and Lord God's "injury" came from.

It's just that the senior brother didn't say it, and he didn't mention it either.

The most proud achievement of the Church of Light in the past hundred years is to "defeat Pluto head-on". If people know that the great elder of the temple was cannibalized half of his body and the God of Light also paid a heavy price, then this victory will be meaningless.

What they want is a big victory, not a miserable victory.

What they want to tell the world is that light will definitely crush evil spirits.

Just do this... seriously?

Yuan Yang only knew that the temple today was different from what it was back then.

As Meng Xizhou said, this is obviously the place where the light of the world comes, but there is not even a trace of light.

If you give him a chance to choose again.

Back in the day.

He might make a different choice...

After seventy years of stupidity, his senior brother criticized him for being stubborn, dull, reckless, and ignorant of flexibility.

He wished he was so.

"Xiao Meng..."

Yuan Yang closed his eyes. After he shouted this, he hesitated for a long time.

In the end, he did not tell the truth about the battle with Pluto.

At the end of the day, he's just a coward.

When the temple went to war with Hades, he did not dare to charge in person and face the ominous disaster.

Later, when his senior brother went astray, he did not dare to use his own body to force him to return.

Later...his apprentice was imprisoned in a secret prison for upholding justice. He did not dare to save people, but instead practiced deception.

Until now, he was clearly determined to risk everything, but he still dared not reveal the false glory of the Temple of Light and let Meng Xizhou see clearly the scars of the church.

In this extremely peaceful darkness, he could clearly see his cowardly and hypocritical face.

So hateful.

He thought he had the moral principles he adhered to, but looking back, everything he did in his life was on the opposite path.

No wonder he was so tired, so tired.

What a ridiculous thing this is. After Yao Jin exposed the plan, he felt extremely relaxed...

"Xiao Meng——"

Yuan Yang stretched out two fingers and gently pressed them between his eyebrows.

In the end, all he had left in the secret cell was a long sigh filled with endless regret.

"After you get out, let's see the light."
