Light Barrier

Chapter 1226

"In the year 660 of the New Calendar, a super giant storm arrived at the border of Beizhou..."

"Then what?"

The three or four-year-old girl with a ponytail, her eyes as wide as copper bells, blinked at the woman in front of her.

"Then...it's time for you to sleep."

The young woman was wearing a dark cloak and stood in front of the bed. She smiled and said, "It's getting late. I'll tell you the rest of the story tomorrow."

The little girl wailed: "Sister Xiaoman..."

"Call me aunt."

Although Gu Xiaoman corrected him like this, he couldn't hide the smile on his face.

"Do not be like that."

The little girl tugged at the hem of Gu Xiaoman's clothes, making coquettish coquettish sounds, and her tone of voice was completely unlike a child of this age: "My father and mother will be back tomorrow, and when they come back, there will be a lot of messy things... Will you tell me the follow-up of the story then?"

"Of course, how could I forget?"@@@@

Gu Xiaoman smiled and stretched out his palm to touch the little girl's smooth and white forehead.

There, there was a glistening mark of fire.

When touched, the flames flickered, sending a burst of warmth.

After a lot of effort, Gu Xiaoman finally coaxed the little girl into bed, then covered her with a sheet and quietly exited the room.

The moment he closed the door, a soft voice sounded in the spiritual sea.

"Xiaoman, today is the day for the initial number's return journey."

"I see that everyone at the top seat has arrived, and it seems that you are the only one missing."

Gu Xiaoman stroked her temples after hearing this. In the past few days, she had been accompanying Gu Chaoxi and didn't pay much attention to the news from the outside world.

But she knew that today was a special and important day.

Gu Xiaoman smiled and explained: "Master Bai Xiu, aren't you busy coaxing Gu Chaoxi to sleep? It took a little time."

"Don't worry, I've been in retreat. I just arrived. It's very lively here."

The voice was very gentle: "Do you need me to pick you up?"

Gu Xiaoman hummed softly.

next moment.

The space was torn apart, and a portal appeared in front of Xiao Man. He was wearing white clothes and white sleeves, with his hands behind his back. He stood on the other side of the portal. Behind him was a towering and complete shadow of a huge god general, stretching out his hands. He opened the door and made room for Gu Xiaoman to access the inner entrance.

Baixiu moved slightly to one side.

Gu Xiaoman entered the portal and came to the top of a wide island.

This is a man-made island, a comparative replica of the "Sangzhou Cave" of the year... It was rebuilt on the map where the ice sea disappeared. In order to commemorate the sinking incident of the Sangzhou Cave, this island was named "New Island".

Today's new island is particularly lively, and fireworks continue to explode in the night sky.

On the top of the mountain, the highest seats are almost ready.

There were many people celebrating at the bottom of the mountain.

"Xiaoman."

"Master Liquor."

Gu Xiaoman passed through the portal of 【Thunder Realm】 and arrived at the top of the mountain. Many people greeted her and greeted her. She smiled and nodded one by one. She had seen them before and finally came to the master's side.

"I'm really not good at putting children to sleep."

Bai Xiu quietly looked at the fireworks exploding in the starry sky and said with a smile: "I still have to leave this kind of thing to you."

"At this point, your 【Thunder Realm Walker] is indeed incomparable to [Dream Dream】."

Gu Xiaoman smiled slightly and said, "Or maybe the bedtime story you prepared is not as interesting as mine."

"oh?"

Baixiu raised his eyebrows: "Bedtime story, what is that?"

"..."

Gu Xiaoman was silent for a few seconds and rubbed his eyebrows.

"During this period, I have been telling Chao Xi her father's story. Of course... I have withheld the specific name."

Gu Xiaoman lowered his eyebrows and smiled and said, "But this little guy is very smart. When she reads history in the future, she should know how this story came about."

The most wonderful story in the world is history.

It's just that... there is actually not much space left in the follow-up to the story that Gu Chaoxi wants to hear.

Gu Xiaoman deliberately let it slip, because this part told a long story, and only the last, a small "ending" was left, which could be finished in less than a day.

Year 660 of the New Calendar is the last year of the New Calendar.

Today, the New Calendar has become the Star Calendar.

In the battle on the giant wall of Beizhou, mankind won the final victory.

Mu Wanqiu, wearing a formal dress, came to the side of Gu Xiaoman with white sleeves. She looked complicated and said jokingly: "I didn't expect to come back so quickly this time."

Just over two years.

The news came from the initial number.

The mission to hit the zenith is indeed dangerous.

Everyone is worried about when Gu Shen will come back... But the interesting thing is that no one is worried about whether Gu Shen will come back.

It seems that everyone has acquiesced that Gu Shen will definitely come back no matter how long he disappears.

It's nothing more than a matter of length of time.

"Yeah. It seems like it only took two and a half years? I don't know what is beyond the zenith, and whether the legendary 'New World' really exists..."

Baixiu echoed with a smile. Halfway through, he frowned and realized something was wrong: "Miss Mu, why are you wearing a dress and dressing up so grandly?"

"Don't you know, today is the engagement party between Gu Nanfeng and Meng Xizhou."

Mu Wanqiu raised her eyebrows.

In her impression, after the war, Baixiu first healed his wounds and then went into seclusion. During this period, there was no news.

Gu Shen boarded the starship to go beyond the zenith... This matter was notified to almost everyone in the highest seat.

But the only thing was that I didn't tell Xiao Xiu.

On combat effectiveness.

Baixiu, who has comprehended the "Hunting Fire", is now the strongest one among the Twelve Gods!

Going to the Zenith is an extremely difficult and dangerous task for others, but it is just right for Little Sleeve.

The reason why Gu Shen concealed it was that he hoped that Bai Xiu could have a good rest and not worry about it... This was actually a very correct choice. In the battle with the super giant elemental storm, Bai Xiu exerted great strength and was also seriously injured. Heavy.

This retreat lasted for several years. When he opened his eyes, Gu Shen and Chu Ling had left Wuzhou, and the Zenith mission was almost over.

"...engagement party?"

Baixiu's expression became strange.

"These two have been waiting for you to finish your retreat. They told me a while ago that they sent you an invitation."

Mu Wanqiu smiled and said, "Gu Shen is coming back today. Everyone at the engagement banquet is here. It's a happy day."

Bai Xiu quickly checked his email.

As the highest seat...he receives too many emails every day. He has been in seclusion for a long time, and he has not read a single word of these emails.

Not so long ago.

Gu Nanfeng sent an invitation, and the content on it was a brief description of the engagement party.

Generally speaking, for such "big events", one should use the spiritual network to communicate.

"Brother Bai, don't be nervous."

Gu Nanfeng held Meng Xizhou's hand, and the two of them walked slowly, dressed in the simple formal attire of the Snow Forbidden City. Gu Nanfeng smiled and comforted: "Actually, today is just an ordinary banquet. There is no need to dress carefully, just come. The invitation I sent earlier just went through the usual process. It is enough for Brother Bai to come today." .”

Bai Xiu and Gu Xiaoman looked at each other, both of them helpless.

No wonder today's fireworks are so gorgeous and grand. It turns out there is another reason.

The two gods getting married was a major event that shocked the entire Five Continents... But everyone knew that Gu Nanfeng and Meng Xizhou were a couple, so the news was not that sensational.

"Rumble, rumble—"

At this moment.

A slight trembling and roaring sound suddenly came from the ceiling where fireworks were billowing.

Above the clouds and mist, a wisp of crimson light emerged. The Initial Number's belly, as huge as a whale, gradually broke through the clouds and landed downwards. It appeared without warning, as if it had "replaced" the original large cloud and suddenly appeared. Above everyone's heads... the arrival of this starship did not give people much sense of oppression.

On the contrary, everyone who had experienced the battle on the giant wall of Beizhou felt the warmth and stability reaching the deepest part of their hearts when they saw the blazing red fire.

The starship slowly landed and docked in front of the new island.

Baixiu, Gu Xiaoman, Mu Wanqiu, Gu Nanfeng, Meng Xizhou... everyone approached one after another, and the fireworks in the sky swept up to the ceiling.

A moment.

The night seemed to be dyed into day.

The starship portal slowly opened.

As the fireworks fell and the sky was filled with light and dust, Gu Shen pushed open the huge bronze door, bent down and got out of the initial number.

The moment he stood up, Gu Shen was startled for a second when he saw the people in front of him.

He didn't expect that the support for his return would be so huge.

"Everyone, long time no see..."

His eyes passed over the old friends and old friends one by one, and a warm current surged from the bottom of his heart.

Gu Shen smiled and stretched out his hand to hold Chu Ling, who came out behind him with a slight stagger in his steps.

"us."

"Back from the New World."
