Across Deep Space: Four Men and a Play

Chapter 140 [Prophet Li 2]

A biting cold wind whistled through the empty and dark hall, blowing up the sparse ice crystal fragments on the ground and making a rustling sound.

The huge pillars surrounding the palace were covered with frost, and countless black ice vines were climbing and entwining around them.

The high steps in the middle were covered with frost, and sitting on the throne at the end was a man in luxurious clothes, wrapped in thorns and sharp icicles. With his eyes closed and his body covered with frost, he looked like a lifeless sculpture.

Xia Jiumeng's eyes tightened when she looked at the familiar face, but when she thought of her disguised identity, she lowered her head and introduced herself.

No matter what, since he was replacing the envoy, he naturally had to introduce his family background. Although he knew that Li Shen could tell the truth from the false, he still had to tell it.

"I am a messenger sent by the king to listen to the prophet's prophecy."

The moment he finished speaking, Xia Jiumeng stood up straight, counted to three in his mind, and walked directly up the stairs.

She knew that Li Shen was in a deep sleep and probably couldn't hear what she said.

He could only wake up if she touched the core of his scepter.

Walking up to the throne and looking at the stern-faced man, her expression changed slightly and she placed her hand on his heart, her mental power surging.

The same?

Sure enough it was him.

I originally thought that in different worlds and times, even if the bodies were the same, the souls might not be the same, but I never expected...

It’s fine this way, they have the same soul, they are the same person, just in different time and space. But it doesn’t matter, as long as it’s him, she will love him.

Although Xiao Qi said that the ending cannot be changed, he did not say that the process of reaching the ending cannot be changed~

Looking at the man in front of her, she pursed her lips and smiled, "I said, I will make sure everything goes well for you (for all eternity)."

She likes to grow flowers, and she can grow even difficult flowers well.

Concentrating her mind, she reached out and touched the core wrapped in the scepter. The first touch was only slightly deflected.

At the same time, Li Shen's disdainful voice echoed around him: "You are overestimating your own abilities."

Xia Jiumeng looked at the man who was still silently removing the thorns from his body. She knew that Li Shen should be awake, and said

"The book described the prophet as an old man, but I didn't expect him to be so young."

The man's eyelashes fluttered slightly as he opened his eyes, which were filled with indifference and chill. "Didn't the books you read tell you to be in awe of the unknown?"

Xia Jiumeng raised her eyebrows slightly.

"It seems, I didn't notice."

Looking at the man's appearance, she felt like teasing him. She reached out and gently touched his neck. When she heard his cold gasp, she couldn't help but chuckle.

Her offensive behavior made the Prophet frown slightly. "See you, you don't know what fear is."

"slightly."

Xia Jiumeng was not afraid at all. She knew that Li Shen could not move now and continued to do bad things.

She reached out and touched the man's chest, and received his warning as she wished: "The more proud a person is, the closer he is to danger."

Touching the cheek, "Uh..." the man groaned, "Have you ever thought about the consequences of disrespecting the prophet?"

"Well, I haven't thought about it."

Li Shen's serious look makes me want to be bullied~

"Unbridled."

"It's a pity that you can't move now and can't teach me a lesson, Lord Prophet."

Li Shen "......"

This person feels like a female hooligan.

Xia Jiumeng moved closer, squatted slightly, looked at the frost on Li Shen's abdomen, reached out to touch it, and as she wished, she heard the man's suppressed groan.

Before Li Shen could speak, she asked, "Is it this frost that is imprisoning you?"

Li Shen: "Excessive curiosity."

"Well, I am indeed very curious."

Xia Jiumeng continued to stroke the frost as she spoke, only to see it begin to melt under the warmth of her palms. Xia Jiumeng knew that Li Shen should be able to move, but she didn't want to be frozen into an ice sculpture for a whole day like in the card scene. She pretended to be casual and said, "If you're not curious, you won't like to tinker with exotic flowers and plants."

Fortunately, she did have a greenhouse in the Duke's house, which was dedicated to storing some exotic flowers and plants that she personally tended to.

When Li Shen heard her words, a strange look flashed in his eyes, which disappeared in an instant.

He stood up and clapped his hands, "Okay, I'm not curious anymore."

"Master Prophet, can you lend me your core to save my life?"

As he spoke, he reached out to touch the core on top of the scepter again, and as he wished, he was bounced onto the steps by a powerful force.

"boom!"

The moment she was bounced back, she immediately controlled her backward posture in the air and landed in a relatively decent state.

An even sharper chill surged from the throne and condensed into new icicles, while the frost on Li Shen's body completely dissipated. He stood up with the scepter in his hand and stared coldly at Xia Jiumeng below the stairs.

"I've given you enough opportunities, but you insisted on crossing the line so many times."

As he spoke, he raised the scepter slightly, and ice-blue light gathered in it.

Xia Jiumeng stood up and looked at him. "You want to kill me?"

Although, Li Shen looks good in this outfit, but why do his pants inexplicably look like silk pajamas?

Who did this to the prophet? Come, drag him out and behead him!

“Death is sometimes not the best punishment for those who offend the prophet.”

Xia Jiumeng: ??? Or ice?

She doesn't want to make ice sculptures!

How about...a fight?

After visually estimating the difference in strength, Enxianzhi Li Shen is very strong. I guess if they go all out, it would be a 50-50 fight?

But she didn't want to fight him.

"Hey, wait!"

Li Shen raised his eyebrows and looked at her, and the speed at which the power in his hands gathered slowed down a little.

"Well, don't hit me. I'm sorry for offending you. Can I do some work for you as an apology?"

"Any kind of work is fine."

Just stay anyway.

Li Shen put away his scepter and looked at her deeply. As a prophet, he could see the past and predict the future, but he could not see this person's future.

But I heard her say before that she is good at growing flowers. I just took a look and it is true. The flowers in her greenhouse are blooming very beautifully.

It just so happened that he had a jasmine plant that no one was taking care of.

"Do you know what happened to the last person who tried to steal the Creation Core?"

"..."

Xia Jiumeng: Do you believe me when I say I am not interested in core technology?

"What will happen?"

"Turn into an ice sculpture and sleep forever with the snowy mountains."

Xia Jiumeng: "...., can I refuse?"

Li Shen sat back on the throne, glanced at her and said nonchalantly, "I'll give you a chance to atone for your sins."

As he spoke, a light blue power wrapped around Xia Jiumeng, controlling her to follow him.

After following Li Shen to the top of the tower, we stopped.

Xia Jiumeng:... Damn, my legs are so sore!

Li Shen, just wait. Remember this. When you regain your memory, I will definitely settle the score with you!

Looking at the snow-capped mountains not far away, they appear like a huge white shell under the clear moonlight.

Looking at the cracks between the rough rock bricks, there is a bunch of jasmine growing tenaciously, just a little wilted.

Li Shen looked at the woman beside him and said calmly, "Can this flower be grown well?"

She looked at the flower and didn't answer immediately, because it was a miracle that the flower...didn't freeze to death in this snowy mountain.

It's just a bunch of jasmine. She can easily make it bloom and bear fruit by transforming her wood-type ability, but the rules of this world probably won't let the flower survive so easily.

And she didn't want to finish the planting too quickly.

Otherwise you'll have to leave early.

Li Shen stared into her eyes and asked again, "Yes, or no."

"Yes, but this flower is difficult to grow and requires very careful care."

Li Shen turned his head to look at the flower buds growing tenaciously in the crack, and touched them lightly with his fingertips as if he was treating some rare treasure. Even his usually cold eyes took on a little warmth.

"Grow the flower, let it bloom and you will leave alive."

"otherwise......."

The threat in the words was very strong.

Xia Jiumeng: Accounting +1

"it is good."
