Chapter 608 Your Time Is Running Out
"Su Bao!"
The Empress Dowager suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Su Bao and hugged the little girl tightly.
Bai Yinjun glanced at the Empress Dowager with a wronged expression, but then lay down on the ground without saying a word.
The body instantly stopped moving.
At that very moment, in the Bai family of the capital.
Bai Yinjun suddenly opened his eyes.
Everyone except him was trapped in a nightmare.
His lips twitched slightly.
There was something in his palm, something that Granny Bai had given him a long time ago.
Now is the time to use it.
The boy walked step by step toward the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
Just as they approached the Imperial Ancestral Temple, the sound of a baby crying suddenly rang out.
He paused, then ran even faster.
"Holy crap, someone else is waking up! Could it be the Crown Prince?!"
Bai Yinjun muttered to himself.
Bai Yinjun's lips twitched, and he hurriedly ran inside.
Then they saw the crown prince being held by a man in black.
The man in black sensed Bai Yinjun entering and slowly turned around to look at him.
"Um, why don't you put the child down and we can talk about it later?"
Bai Yinjun felt a chill run down his spine, and he felt completely unwell.
According to what Grandma said, she should be the only one in the whole world who has awakened!
Now it's not just the Crown Prince who's awakened; this person is also awake.
The man glanced at Bai Yinjun, then said in a hoarse voice, "Hurry up and get to work, my time... is running out!"
His voice was a little hoarse, but if you listened carefully, you could still hear a certain familiarity in it.
Bai Yinjun paused, then his eyes widened in surprise.
"Zhao... Village Chief Zhao, are you alright? Why do you look so old?"
The man in black before them was none other than Zhao Ziyun.
At this moment, Zhao Ziyun looked exhausted, and his whole being exuded an indescribable sense of vicissitude.
His hair had turned gray, and so had his eyebrows.
Why do you talk so much nonsense!
After Zhao Ziyun finished speaking, he couldn't help but cough twice.
Bai Yinjun immediately stopped hesitating and walked directly towards the center of the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
"How did your body become like this? You wouldn't happen to be a Heavenly Demon Seed, would you?"
After saying that, Bai Yinjun's eyes widened instantly.
He saw a wisp of black energy emanating from Zhao Ziyun's palm.
Bai Yinjun's body trembled slightly, and he wanted to back away.
"Enough. I'm nothing to you. What matters is that your time is running out..."
"If these people cannot wake up within three days... they will remain trapped in the nightmare!"
There was some worry in Zhao Ziyun's voice.
He knew that the little girl definitely wanted everyone to wake up.
He is the high and mighty moon god!
And myself...
Zhao Ziyun gave a bitter smile.
Now that he has fully regained his memories, he understands everything.
He was a celestial demon, but he fell in love with the moon goddess.
The demon god then linked his fate with that of the moon goddess.
only……
Perhaps some things are predetermined by fate!
He composed himself, looked at the prince in his arms, and felt a sense of helplessness in his eyes.
"This is all I can do. I hope you can protect her from now on!"
Zhao Ziyun said in a low voice, a determined glint in his eyes.
To awaken these people, a sacrifice is needed; it is an exchange with fate.
And he was the sacrifice.
This was something Wang Mingtian had planned long ago.
He was indeed very capable; he foresaw everything...
Zhao Ziyun took a deep breath as Bai Yinjun placed the jade pendant at the very top of the ancestral temple.
He handed the prince in his arms to Bai Yinjun.
"You can leave now! Leave the rest to me!"
Zhao Ziyun looked at Bai Yinjun with a determined look in his eyes.
Bai Yinjun paused, then sensed something was amiss.
"Isn't it done by simply putting this thing on top? What else do you need to do?"
"Little Zhao, don't do anything bad! If my Moon Goddess finds out, she'll be furious, and you'll be finished!"
Bai Yinjun's voice carried a hint of warning.
Zhao Ziyun ignored him and directly slapped the man away.
Bai Yinjun...
"Zhao Ziyun, don't go too far! If I could beat you, I would definitely give you a good beating!"
Bai Yinjun was locked at the entrance of the Imperial Ancestral Temple, and could only howl in pain.
He noticed something was wrong the moment he first saw Zhao Ziyun.
He was no match for Zhao Ziyun now; all of Zhao Ziyun's previous words were actually tests.
Bai Yinjun frowned slightly. He looked at the prince in his arms, sighed, and his brows furrowed.
Meanwhile, Zhao Ziyun, inside the Imperial Ancestral Temple, paid no attention to Bai Yinjun outside.
He sat cross-legged and then took out four tokens.
Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, Black Tortoise!
This was the last thing Wang Mingtian gave himself.
Zhao Ziyun looked at these things, then took out a dagger and slashed his wrist.
His blood fell on these four jade pendants.
"I am the Holy Son of the Heavenly Demon, and with my body and soul, I will awaken all the people of the mortal realm..."
As his voice faded, the four jade pendants stained with his blood slowly flew up, followed by a beam of light appearing in front of him.
The next instant, the phantom images of the four divine beasts materialized, followed by a figure appearing.
It was a silhouette from behind.
It is the silhouette of the Moon Goddess, but this Moon Goddess is not the Little Su Bao of today.
She slowly turned around, noble and beautiful, exuding an air of mystery.
Zhao Ziyun gazed at her intently, seemingly lost in infatuation.
Seeing the Moon Goddess's outstretched hand, all the darkness in Zhao Ziyun's eyes vanished.
He also extended his hand.
The two held hands.
The next instant, a large door opened.
Then something seemed to be brought out.
Just then, the Empress Dowager, who was holding Su Bao, seemed to sense something. The Emperor Emeritus and Lan Xiao walked over together.
"Sister, let me take her downstairs!"
Lan Xiao, who had been used as a puppet, has now come to his senses. He looks at his sister and the Emperor Emeritus with a hint of a smile in his eyes.
"No need, I'll go!" The Empress Dowager shook her head, but unexpectedly, Lan Xiao approached at lightning speed and snatched Xiao Su Bao away.
"Sister, I was wrong about what happened before. This time, please let me go!"
After Lan Xiao was arrested, Lan Yue recounted everything that had happened back then.
Moreover, for many years, both Lan Yue and the Emperor have been searching for Lan Xiao.
None of them expected that Lan Xiao was actually the King of Hell in the open.
Lan Xiao didn't believe it at first, until Wang Mingtian came to see him before his trip to Mount Tai.
When Lan Xiao woke up the next day, he already knew everything that had happened back then.
The Empress Dowager was anxious to go over, but found that her younger brother was moving extremely fast.
"Mr. Wang said that only I can go this time. From now on, you and your brother-in-law should stay here!"
After Lan Xiao finished speaking, he turned around, and a white vortex appeared in front of him.
He carried the unconscious Xiao Su Bao directly over.
The Empress Dowager and the Emperor Emeritus had no way to get close to them.
In the next instant, this place was completely isolated from the human world.
"Alas!" The Emperor Emeritus grabbed the Empress Dowager's hand, a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
Just then, a figure appeared.
"The battle between the Heavenly Demons is over!"
"Three days later, the gods will be conferred here!"
He was an old man with white hair and beard. His eyebrows and eyes were curved, and he looked somewhat familiar, yet also somewhat unfamiliar.
For some reason, the Empress Dowager and the others felt that they had seen this person somewhere before.
Before the Empress Dowager could speak, the old man had already disappeared.
The Empress Dowager and the Emperor Emeritus seemed to possess a special kind of energy within their bodies.
At that very moment, those who had fallen asleep slowly opened their eyes.
They felt as if they had been having a very long dream.
But they don't remember anything from their dreams.
The people opened their eyes and resumed their busy lives.
Only in the Marquis of Fu'an's residence, a young girl lay on the bed with her eyes tightly closed.
Tang Bugui and Yang Nuannuan stood guard by the window, while Madam Qian watched her daughter intently from the side.
It was as if they had a dream in which no one remembered Su Bao.
That real feeling remains fresh in their memory.
Fortunately, they saw their girl at that moment.
"Husband, why hasn't Su Bao woken up yet!" Yang Nuannuan looked at Tang Bugui anxiously, her eyes filled with worry.
Tang Bugui was worried, but he didn't show it on his face.
"It's alright, this girl has worked too hard all these years, she just wants to rest now!"
Holding back her tears, Madam Qian took a deep breath and said, "It's alright, this child is very lucky, he'll definitely be fine!"
After saying that, Madam Qian got up and said, "Look how thin Su Bao has become! I'll go make some food right now so she can eat when she wakes up!"
“Yes, I’ll go help too. Su Bao loves what I make!” Wang Xiuer said immediately.
Qian's expression changed slightly, her expression somewhat indescribable.
"Mom, please don't cook. I'm worried you'll burn the kitchen down and my aunt won't have anything to eat!" Sibao said pitifully as she came over.
Wang Xiuer's face darkened immediately, and she dragged her son away to discipline him.
The room seemed to have become lively, except for Xiao Su Bao, who lay quietly on the bed.
Tang Bugui and Yang Nuannuan stayed with Su Bao for a while before leaving, leaving the three of them alone.
Yunmo remained silent throughout.
The boy looked quietly at Su Bao, who was their son in his arms.
"Shanping, Daddy will take you to see Mother!"
Only after everyone had left did Yunmo softly say a word.
He was never a particularly eloquent person.
His face was covered with a beard, and he looked somewhat tired.
He slowly walked to the bedside, held his son, and lay down next to Su Bao.
"Su Bao, when did you wake up? Look how much our son has grown!"
Yunmo spoke softly in Su Bao's ear, gently brushing the hair from Su Bao's eyebrows to the side with his hand.
He looked into the little girl's tightly closed eyes, his voice extremely gentle.
He recounted their past little by little.
The little girl could hear Yunmo's voice, but she was unable to wake up.
She frowned, vaguely feeling that this must be the work of a demon.
Little Su Bao shouted and yelled in the dark space, even responding to Yun Mo.
"Ahhh..."
Just then, Little Tangyuan suddenly shouted.
He was so tiny, yet he was making babbling sounds.
He looked at Su Bao, as if he were talking to her.
Su Bao was enveloped in darkness when she heard her son's voice and was slightly startled.
"Son, it's alright, Mommy's here, Mommy's fine, don't be afraid!"
Little Su Bao called out in the dark space.
"Ah..." The little dumpling, who had just been quiet, suddenly shouted again.
Xiao Su Bao was taken aback; she had a vague suspicion.
Could it be that the son can actually hear his own voice?
Her son was born extraordinary; he was a divine child, practically a demigod!
"Son, can you hear your mother's voice?" Little Su Bao couldn't help but call out in the dark space.
"Ah!" Tangyuan, who was less than half a year old, cried out.
Although the battle seemed short from the sky, nearly half a year had already passed on Earth.
Although the little dumpling can't speak, it can understand simple words.
During the question-and-answer session, Su Bao was immediately pleasantly surprised.
But this surprise was short-lived.
Because Su Bao felt that her divine power seemed to be flowing away!
It seems that her divine power dissipates during conversations with her son.
Little Su Bao frowned.
But the little girl was never one to give up. Even during the most difficult times, all she wanted to do was stay alive.
"Waaaaah..." Little Tangyuan seemed to sense something and immediately burst into tears.
Little Su Bao hurriedly called out in her heart, trying to coax the child.
However, Little Tangyuan cried even harder.
Yunmo had no choice but to get up and start coaxing them.
At that moment, a black figure suddenly appeared in their room.
Little Su Bao sensed a familiar presence.
This is……
What are you doing?
Yun Mo's expression changed slightly, and he immediately attacked the person who had come.
"Don't...do it!"
The man shouted hurriedly.
Yunmo was slightly taken aback, but in the end he withdrew his hand.
"What do you want?" Yunmo looked at the newcomer warily.
This person was none other than Lan Xiao, who brought Xiao Su Bao back.
"I know a way to save this girl!"
Lan Xiao's time is running out; he is different from Xiao Su Bao.
He came here at the cost of his own lifespan.
"you say!"
Yunmo glanced at Lan Xiao warily.
"Her consciousness is currently trapped. To awaken her, we must return to Tangjia Village!"
Yunmo paused, then continued looking at Lan Xiao.
Seeing that Yun Mo believed her somewhat, Lan Xiao said, "She is the Moon Goddess, and the only goddess. The Heavenly Dao of this world will suppress her, and..."
Lan Xiao glanced at Xiao Su Bao, thought of what had happened before, and sighed.
"Moreover, she was sealed in darkness by... another powerful being. To awaken her, besides going back, three things are needed!"
"The red snow lotus from the Tianshan Mountains, the essence of the moon—once you find these two things, you'll naturally know the last one!"
Lan Xiao's expression changed slightly, probably because he had said a lot.
So at this moment, his body began to become illusory.
Lan Xiao wanted to say something, but he couldn't make a sound.
The next instant, his body vanished from the spot.
