Chapter 190 Emperor x Cultist 11

Qianzhou tried to wipe away his tears, but they kept coming and his crying became more obvious.

There was an obvious mark on his neck. Qianzhou looked at Honglian and felt very aggrieved.

He had never been so fragile before, and Qianzhou didn't know what was wrong with him.

"Go to church and find someone else..."

Qianzhou put on her clothes while crying, her cat tail hanging lifelessly, "I don't want to stay with you... I'm leaving."

Honglian grabbed his wrist, "...Wait."

Qianzhou's eyes were red, "I used to like being with you..."

"But you always make me sad."

Snowflakes are slowly falling outside the window. This may be the last snow of the year, as the parade will be tomorrow.

Honglian knew that Qianzhou was really following the process, and followed the servants to watch the wooden cart and occasionally help out.

He also took the steamed buns from the kitchen to distribute to the civilians.

Now, he says he doesn't want to participate.

A sharp pain came from deep inside Honglian's heart. It was fleeting, but the pain was very noticeable.

Maybe You Yinte was right, and he would pay a heavy price.

But Honglian must get to the bottom of the Snow Demon's matter, as it involves so many things.

Honglian stood up and said, "They've been looking forward to this parade all year. It's going to start tomorrow. Are you sure you want to withdraw?"

Qianzhou paused, faced Honglian, and said:

"I have no idea what a snow demon is. I have never done anything to harm anyone."

"If you don't believe..."

"...That's it." Qian Zhou walked out the door, "Tomorrow...I will attend on time."

Qianzhou left the royal building and came to the civilian area, sitting on the stone steps in a daze.

The sky was dark and it was almost dark. Usually, the streets would be empty at this time.

Today every household is busy, and they light a fire at the door to welcome the new year.

"Lord Qianzhou!"

Little Porter ran over quickly, and when he got close to Qianzhou, he slowed down, worried about offending him.

"Can I sit next to you?"

Little Porter is very young and taller than Qianzhou.

"Sir, thank you for saving my sister." Little Potter took out a brooch from his bosom. "This is my mother's gift to you."

Qianzhou took it, held it in his hand, and thought of the child he had saved.

"So that's your sister."

Little Potter nodded. "Yes, but she can't speak, so I have to say thank you for her."

"Master Qianzhou, you are truly a very good person! You are the best person in the church."

"You are as good as our king!" The young man had a dirty nose and he wiped it with a smile.

Not everyone is as cold-resistant as Qianzhou, and little Porter was already shivering from the cold.

Qian Zhou said softly, "It's getting late, let's go back."

"Well... well..."

"Goodbye, sir!" Little Potter and Qianzhou waved.

Even though her nose was red from the cold and her hands were shaking, she still wanted to sit with him.

Qianzhou picked up the snowflakes and stared at the streets of the civilian area in a daze, with a slight curve at the corner of his mouth.

It turns out that this is the group of people that Honglian wants to protect.

——

You Yinte walked around in front of Honglian twice, holding the crystal ball. "What happened to you today?"

"Is there something wrong?" Honglian asked calmly.

The clock on the wall ticked and the hands moved slowly.

You Yinte knew that he didn't want to say it, shrugged, and put the crystal ball on the table.

He said sternly, "The fate of the kingdom will fluctuate greatly tomorrow. You must be careful."

"Is this incident related to me?" Honglian asked.

"It's related to the Snow Demon. Part of him has already escaped, and it's only a matter of time before the seal is broken."

Honglian stared at the giant sword and said, "I will avenge my father."

You Yinte patted his shoulder and said, "Forget it, don't worry, your holy fire is incomplete."

The surrounding space fluctuated, and wrinkles appeared on You Yinte's fingers, which quickly disappeared and became smooth and white.

The clock on the wall was completely still.

Time is frozen.

"Honglian, the white cat's physique is very special and it fits perfectly with the Snow Demon." An inky snowflake condensed at You Yinte's fingertips.

Honglian stared at him, "What are you going to do?"

"This is the only way to completely make the snow demon disappear." You Yinte looked at the wrinkles that appeared on his fingertips again.

"I am old, and after I die there will be no one who can help you."

"As for what I will do, I will tell you in the future. Your main task now is to become stronger."

You Yinte waved his hand, the clock resumed running, and all the wrinkles on his fingers disappeared.

"Don't let anyone else know what happened today." He said with a smile.

Honglian frowned, "But you mentioned a third person, he has the right to know."

You Yinte acted as if he didn't hear anything, opened the door and left.

The second day.

All preparations for the parade were complete, and Qianzhou wore the golden clothes that Pus had chosen for him.

The surface is decorated with a sun pattern made of gold threads, symbolizing the gods worshipped by the church and the kingdom.

"Master Qianzhou, please come this way."

Qian Zhou saw Hong Lian's back and didn't move. "It hasn't started yet. I'll be there later."

After saying this, he sat down on the stool prepared by the servants without saying a word.

I don't want to get too close to Honglian.

Honglian put the golden sword to be used in the parade on his waist, and his servant brought him the black and gold crown that symbolized power.

This is the highest symbol of power of the Shengde family, passed down from Honglian's ancestors to the present day.

The black crystal in the center exudes a bright luster, as if the sacred fire is hidden within it.

Honglian lowered her eyes and waited for a while, then asked, "Where are the people?"

"This, this..." The servant was in a dilemma.

Honglian glanced at him coldly. Although it was the day of the parade, her expression was obviously very bad.

The servant lowered his head and whispered, "He said he would come back when the parade starts..."

Today the sun is shining brightly, and the top of the snow is beginning to melt slowly. No new buds are growing, but this also means that spring is coming.

"Call a doctor to take a look and don't delay the progress." Honglian said.

"yes."

You Yinte was behind Honglian and said quietly, "Is it just delaying the progress?"

Honglian asked back: "Or?"

The eyes under the white veil slowly opened, You Yinte looked at Honglian, and finally said nothing.

You Yinte saw clearly whether Honglian had no heart and why she was unhappy.

After a while, the doctor came behind Honglian and said, "Wang, there is nothing wrong with his body."

Honglian frowned and asked, "Then why doesn't he come?"

The doctor was silent for a while, then said awkwardly:

"Could it be that... he hates you?"
