Chapter 265 High Priest: The Goddess’ Oracle…

"Father, I will definitely send Tian Xuanzi's head to your grave!"

It is true that the relationship between Touman Chanyu and Maodun became more distant because of the appearance of Hu Ji. However, the relationship between the father and son has not yet developed to the point of life and death. Thinking of Touman Chanyu's kindness to him in childhood, Maodun burst into tears and promised Touman Chanyu.

Bang!
In that fierce battle, Touman Chanyu was hit by Tianxuan's sword, and he was just holding on. With Maodun's assurance, Touman Chanyu, who had been relieved of the burden, felt relieved, and his head fell heavily on the bed, and he breathed his last.

"Great Chanyu!"

"Father!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

……

Even though they had been prepared for this moment, the people kneeling in front of Touman Chanyu's bed still knelt on their knees and burst into tears. In an instant, the king's tent was filled with an atmosphere of sorrow, and the tears flowed like a waterfall, unable to be stopped.

There was only one person left standing in the tent, and that was Maodun, who passed on the throne to Detouman Chanyu before his death and became the successor Chanyu of the Xiongnu!

The crying and wailing in his ears infected Maodun. His eye sockets turned red and tears accumulated in his eyes, but he forced himself to hold them back.

"Pass on this Chanyu's order to bury the previous Chanyu in one month!"

After a while, when the crying subsided, Maodun's handsome face, illuminated by the oil lamps, looked dignified and he gave orders as the new Chanyu.

"Yes, Great Chanyu."

As Maodun gave the order, the crying in the tent instantly disappeared, and everyone's eyes were focused on the new Chanyu, who was young but had the potential to be a great leader. After a moment of silence, everyone, including Hu Ji, accepted the order.

"Great Chanyu, how do you plan to treat him?" Following Maodun's order, the people in the tent took action, collecting and cleaning Chanyu Touman's body, spreading the news of the old Chanyu's death and the new Chanyu's succession, and taking away the young princes and princesses. In a blink of an eye, in addition to Maodun and a dozen guards, only Hu Ji and her son were left in the tent.

Facing Maodun, her stepson with whom she had a bad relationship in the past, Hu Ji put on a flattering look, and her charm overflowed when she blinked her eyes. She glanced at her three-year-old son who could not even remember anything, and said pitifully.

The Xiongnu practiced levirate marriage, which meant that after the death of their father or brother, the heir had the right to inherit from other women besides their biological mother. As Chanyu Touman was dead, Hu Ji lost her support and could only flirt with Maodun.

Maodun stepped forward, pressed down the beautiful head of Hu Ji, and said sternly: "After my father is buried, I will send you to Donghu as a hostage. As for you? From now on, you are my bitch!"

"Well! Thank you very much...thank you very much, Great Chanyu, for not...for not killing me!" Under the suppression of Maodun, Hu Ji choked.

………………

Loulan.

Located in the endless yellow sand, on the largest oasis.

There are dozens of countries in the Western Regions, large and small. Many countries are called countries, but in fact they only have one city and no more than a thousand soldiers. However, among the countries in the Western Regions, there are two countries that are special, one of which is Loulan. Loulan has 10,000 soldiers, all of whom are wearing golden armor and have strong combat power. Loulan implements a system of political and religious unity. The leaders of Loulan in all dynasties are unmarried women, called high priests, who never marry and worship the goddess who helped Emperor Xuanyuan defeat Chiyou in the legend: Jiu Tian Xuan Nu as the highest deity, and respect Jiu Tian Xuan Nu as the creator god.

The moon is bright and the stars are twinkling.

The sky is filled with stars like tiny gems, and the scattered mottled starlight mixes with the moonlight of the waning moon and falls on Loulan, creating supreme tranquility.

At this moment, ninety-nine percent of the people in Loulan fell asleep, even the golden-armored warriors who were theoretically responsible for defense were no exception.

hum!
The only person who has not yet rested is the high priest who lives in the central temple of Loulan.

The temple is three meters high and dazzling. At the end of the temple is a white jade statue of more than two meters high. It is crystal clear, jade-like and magnificent, and is shaped as if it is about to soar into the sky. It is as if the prototype of this statue, the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens, is summoned from the myth of the ignorant age. Two black gems are inlaid as the eyes of the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens, making them lifelike.

Under the statue of the Queen Mother of the West, she is wearing a black cloak and a fitted brocade dress. She is holding a scepter inlaid with gems in her bare hands. Her facial features are perfectly matched on her standard oval face, and her healthy wheat-like skin is particularly radiant. The high priest of Loulan, who is revered by gossipers as the incarnation of the Queen Mother of the West, is sitting cross-legged on a cushion with his eyes closed, praying silently.

Suddenly, a low and mysterious sound was heard in this sacred and solemn temple, waking up the high priest who was sitting cross-legged and praying.

The moment her beautiful eyes opened, the high priest knelt down before the statue of the Lady of the Nine Heavens. Her beautiful face was filled with reverence. She looked towards the statue of the Lady of the Nine Heavens and said respectfully, "Goddess, is there any oracle coming down from you?"

Swish!
A bright rainbow light surrounded the white jade statue of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady, like a divine rainbow descending from the sky, falling squarely on the high priest. Facing the rainbow light from the statue of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady, the high priest did not dodge, but let the bright rainbow light sink into his brows, and complicated information flowed in front of him.

Then, the high priest's face, which was already particularly majestic due to his high position for many years, glowed with a holy luster:
"The demon from outside the realm entered this world created by the goddess?"

"The established destiny will be rewritten by the demon from outside the domain?"

"The Western Region is about to encounter a catastrophe. Will the demon soldiers that have been sealed away for countless years reappear in the world with the arrival of the outer demons?"

……

When the high priest digested the message conveyed by the rainbow light, the holy luster lingering on that beautiful face dissipated, replaced by the horror from the heart. He muttered to himself, and every word was filled with endless worry. Before his eyes, there was an endless sea of ​​blood and corpses, as if he had seen the scene of Loulan turned into ruins.

Click!
After muttering to himself, the high priest stood up and increased the strength of his right hand holding the scepter. This theocratic leader of Loulan also possessed impressive martial arts skills. With his agitated emotions, the scepter almost shattered.

…………

A sneeze!

When he was deliberately mysterious, mixing the soul of the dragon with some illusions, he made himself seem to be conceived by the sun and the moon. It was as if the two queens of heaven in the ancient times: Xihe and Changxi, whose incarnations in the human world, Yanfei and Yueshen, appeared in front of him. When all the strange phenomena disappeared with their appearance, Tianxuan suddenly felt a great chill.

Tianxuan has entered the fourth realm of martial arts: Huiyang Realm. He is considered a first-class master in the world, but in the face of this sudden chill, he felt like he was falling into an ice cellar. Then, his nose moved as if hanging a gallbladder, and he sneezed heavily. The saliva that flew out caused Yanfei and Yueshen to show disgust at the same time, and they hurriedly used their energy to dissolve the saliva that was rushing towards them.
