Chapter 848: Emperor Chu Ascends to Heaven, Appears at the Saint’s Place (5)
Chu Ling leaned into Xu Bai’s embrace and nodded her head lightly. She said weakly,” Husband, I don’t have a father anymore.”
Xu Bai was silent.
In the Imperial Palace of Great Chu.
At this moment, countless people were rushing over.
The magnificent main hall was now covered in white cloth.
The civil and military officials were all dressed in white and sackcloth, kneeling in the open space in front of the main hall.
The funeral was carried out as scheduled, presided over by King Sheng You.
Xu Bai had already arrived with Chu Ling. Chu Ling was wearing mourning clothes and was kneeling in front of a coffin.
There was nothing in the coffin except for the Chu Emperor’s favorite jade pendant.
Xu Bai didn’t say anything. He wanted to say something, but he didn’t know where to start.
He thought that if the Chu Emperor could leave behind a remnant soul in the mortal world, perhaps he could use the method he used to awaken Liu Qingfeng to awaken the Chu Emperor.
The Chu Emperor’s soul would definitely be wiped out if he entered the bizarre market.
If he could come out alive, with a remnant soul and the method of awakening, it might be useful.
But… There were no remnant souls.
That method was useless.
Xu Bai accompanied Chu Ling as he looked at the people who were walking forward and surrounding the coffin.
The rest of the matter was still being handled.
Xu Bai also knew that Director Mu should be the next emperor.
No one objected, because this was the Chu Emperor’s intention. Even if the Chu Emperor went to the Bizarre Market, no one dared to refute that sentence.
Xu Bai was not interested in these things at all.
He felt an intense sense of urgency. Even a Saint like the Chu Emperor could only sacrifice himself to buy time for the world.
What about him?
“This time, it’s over. I’ve finished all the progress bars of the barbarians.”Xu Bai thought.
As he thought about this, time gradually passed.
Even at night, Xu Bai was still accompanying Chu Ling.
He thought that nothing else had happened.
Unexpectedly, Director Mu suddenly walked over.
“I have something to say to you. Come with me.”
It was normal for Director Mu to be in a low mood. No one was in a good mood now.
Xu Bai looked around and comforted Chu Ling in a low voice. He told her that he was going out for a while before following Director Mu to a remote place.
“What is it?”
He looked around, not knowing what was going on.
It must be something very important to call him over at this time, so Xu Bai was a little curious.
Director Mu’s expression was complicated as he recounted to Xu Bai the scene that the Chu Emperor had seen when he ascended to the heavens.
“Madness and rationality?” “You suspect that it has something to do with me?” Xu Bai frowned.”
Director Mu nodded and said straightforwardly,””That’s right, but I don’t know the exact situation, so I can only tell you.”
“I’ll say it one last time. I don’t like being schemed against by others.””
The previous few times, Director Mu’s schemes had left a deep impression on him.
Xu Bai felt that since Director Mu had told him all this, it was very likely that he was up to something.
Director Mu smiled bitterly.” I didn’t mean to scheme against you. His Majesty said that you’re a good child, and I promised him, so I definitely won’t do that.””
“The reason why I told you this is to remind you that if you see these things when you leave the Saint Plane, don’t do anything.”
Xu Bai frowned even more when he heard that.
This sentence was a little interesting.
Was Director Mu afraid that he would seek his own death when he was just about to?
To be honest, it was really possible. After all, it was so similar to his Heavenly Transformation. He really wanted to try it.
However, there was a limit to everyone’s death. Xu Bai was a person who understood limits.
“I understand.” Xu Bai said.
“What do you plan to do next?”
” Hurry up and break through to Saint.” “This way, I can provide everyone with another seat to enter the Saint Plane,” said Director Mu.”
“I don’t know how long Your Majesty can drag this out, but I hope that there will be more time.”
“If…If we can’t hold on any longer, and we haven’t developed yet, I’ll take His Majesty’s path.”
Xu Bai remained silent.
“Alright.” Director Mu patted Xu Bai’s shoulder.””Let’s not talk about this anymore. Accompany Chu Ling more, she must be very sad.”
With that, CEO Mu left.
Xu Bai stood where he was and carefully recalled what President Mu had said. He felt a headache coming on.
He knew that the origin of the cheat was definitely not simple. It was impossible for it to appear out of nowhere.
But in the beginning, he had been in trouble since he obtained the cheat, so he had been using it until now. Moreover, he had no clues to look for it, so he temporarily put it aside.
Now that he suddenly had a clue, Xu Bai was very interested.
“It’s still too early to become a Saint.” Xu Bai thought,”We’ll see when the time comes.””
With this thought in mind, he prepared to return to the main hall.
As for what the Chu Emperor had seen, he would have to wait until he stepped out of the Saint Plane. After all, he had never seen it with his own eyes, so he didn’t know what was going on. Some things had to be seen with his own eyes to know.
Xu Bai lifted his foot and prepared to go back.
However, before he could take two steps, he suddenly saw a person in the darkness.
