I'll wait for you at the foot of the mountain."

"No need, I've already arrived at Youshan."

At the foot of the secluded mountain, Ding Peng slowly hung up the phone and looked at the unattainable sacred mountain in front of him. He couldn't help but take a deep breath, tightened his clothes made of chilong sheepskin and walked towards the mountain.

.

Ding Peng walked very slowly, but his steps seemed to shrink to an inch. The forest leaves, flowers and grass in front of him blurred into light and shadow in an instant.

It wasn't until he came to the emperor's forbidden palace that Ding Peng slowed down.

Seeing this strange child coming to the gate of the Forbidden Palace, the hussar guards standing outside the gate turned their heads silently, their dull eyes sending chills down the spine.

This is the hussar guard who can defeat Blood River Ancestor. There are few people in the vast underworld who dare to say that they are not afraid of it.

But Ding Peng could only bite the bullet and move forward.

Grand Master has made it very clear that there is only one person who can save his father, and that is the owner of this forbidden palace, the Taishan Netherworld Emperor, who is in charge of the power of life and death.

Tens of thousands of people refers to all living beings.

And the only person who can represent all sentient beings is him.

Because no matter who you are, the final destination is death.

Standing beside millions of people to save one person, if this sentence is understood literally, it means standing beside the emperor to save one's father.

But if you understand this sentence in reverse, it has another meaning. The person who wanted to kill his father was never the second master, but the great emperor.

As for the reason, Ding Peng doesn't know, but if he understands it based on the words of his second master, his father may have the key to unlock all the shackles.

And this key is what the emperor wants.

Ding Peng didn't know whether his understanding was what the master wanted to tell him. At this point, he could only give it a try.

As he said, with great strength, even if you fail, you will still live up to your Taoist aspirations.

Thinking of this, Ding Peng mustered up his courage and walked towards the gate of the Forbidden Palace.

Walking up the dilapidated stone steps step by step, Ding Peng could feel the pressure on his body that was like Mount Tai. When he saw that the guards had silently placed their palms on the handles of their swords.

Big beads of sweat were already rolling down Ding Peng's forehead.

Fortunately, at this moment, the palace door was slowly pushed open, and Huo Du walked out with heavy steps. After looking at Ding Peng up and down, his eyes flashed: "Go in, the emperor asked me to take you."

Go to the back mountain."

“Back mountain??”

Ding Peng frowned and couldn't help hesitating. He was not a fool. He had long heard from Tutu and the others' chatting that the empress was seriously ill and was invited by the emperor to go to the back mountain of Youshan to recuperate. Since then, the back mountain has been a forbidden area.

Intruders will be shot without mercy.

It doesn't matter whether the empress is seriously ill or not, I'm afraid that if the back mountain goes in, it won't be that easy to get out.

"Hmph, why are you scared now that you're in front of the dragon's pond and tiger's den?"

Seeing that Ding Peng refused to leave, Huo Dou couldn't help but sneered.

"Uh... I heard that your Majesty is recuperating in the back mountain. I was unprepared when I came. General, please wait for me for a while and allow me to wash my face, so as not to disturb your Majesty. I will be punished by death."

Huo Dou raised his eyebrows, knowing that this boy was probably playing a trick, but under the gaze of everyone, it was too late for this boy to run away now.

So he waved his hand and urged: "Hurry up."

"Okay, okay!"

Ding Peng nodded repeatedly, then walked to a corner and took out a basin and a pot of hot water from the storage box. He washed himself thoroughly, took out the mirror and applied the fragrant lotion on his face.

"hurry up!"

Seeing this, Huo Du urged again impatiently.

"Okay, okay!"
