Chapter 195: Return

"After all, Burning Dust is from the Burning Heaven Gate, and he is still the son of the master of the Gate, and this time he will fight on behalf of our Cangfeng Xuanfu, which will definitely cause criticism. Moreover, even if he really made it to the top 100 this time, and even defeated the Burning Cliff, no one would agree that this was the ranking that belonged to my Cangfeng Xuanfu and the royal family, but it would attract shame, and my father would never feel honored because of it...... What does the Qin Mansion Lord think?" Cangyue said calmly.

"What His Royal Highness said is extremely true, it will indeed cause a lot of criticism and even ridicule," Qin Wuxian nodded, but then said helplessly: "But the reason why Burning Dust entered my Xuanfu is waiting for this year's Cangfeng Ranking Battle, he wants to defeat the Burning Cliff in the ranking battle, and he will be ashamed before the snow, and this point has also been specially instructed by the Third Prince, plus he is indeed a disciple of our Mansion now, I am afraid it will be ...... to kick him out."

"In that case, let him be. Father's side, I'll go and talk to him. Cang Yue closed the list and said directly. The tone is casual and weak, and it seems that he doesn't care about this list, or even this year's Cangfeng Ranking Battle.

Cangyue's reaction made Qin Wuxian sigh again, and lowered his head and said, "Everything is according to what Her Royal Highness the princess said." There are only three days left before the start of the qualifying battle, and tomorrow morning, how about we set off?

"Me?" Cang Yue shook her head and said gloomily, "I forgot that I informed the Lord of the Qin Mansion earlier." I won't go to this year's Cangfeng Qualifying Battle. Please also ask the Lord of the Qin Mansion and the Lord of the Eastern Mansion to lead the team. ”

"Ah, this ......" Although Qin Wuxian vaguely guessed this from Cangyue's reaction, from Princess Cangyue's mouth saying it so indifferently, he still sighed in his heart, and his face was sad: "But Your Highness, the lord of the Eastern Mansion has always been without a trace, since the emperor became seriously ill, he rarely stayed in the mansion, and after traveling more than a year ago, no one has seen him again, and the transmission note cannot contact him." ”

"Moreover, even if the Dongfang Mansion Lord can come back in time, it is extremely inappropriate for the Dongfang Mansion Lord and me to lead the team. The Cangfeng Ranking Battle is the highest level of the Cangfeng Empire's strength competition, even if it is the top ten sects in the world, they are all at least at the level of the Great Elder, and even the sect master personally leads the team, our royal family has been led by at least one prince or princess in the past, and sometimes the emperor will personally lead the team, if only the palace master leads the team this time, I am afraid that it will make all the sects in the world think that our royal family has a sense of contempt for the world's heroes, especially the Heavenly Sword Villa, it may also be troubled because of this. ”

"The emperor's dragon is not in good health and is physically inconvenient. Several princes were immersed in the struggle for power and did not want to get involved in the matter at all. This matter can only be done by Her Royal Highness the Princess Lao. Three years ago, although our royal family was only ranked 223rd, Her Royal Highness the princess's demeanor amazed the audience and completely covered up the dismal achievements of the royal family. This time, please also ask Her Royal Highness the princess to deign to go, otherwise...... I really don't know what to do. ”

In the past few Cangfeng qualifying battles, Cangfeng Emperor Cangwanqi personally supervised the selection, personally decided, and even personally led the team many times. Now that Cang Wanqi is ill and unable to preside, although the princes are bent on fighting for power, they do not understand the importance of the Cangfeng Ranking Battle within the empire, but the achievements of the royal family have always been extremely dismal, and when they go to Tianjian Villa, they lose face every time, and none of them are willing to take over. Therefore, the Cangfeng qualifying battle three years ago was led by Cangyue.

This time, the situation is even simpler than three years ago. The only thing Qin Wuxian could count on was Cangyue.

Yun Che's incident made Cang Yue sad and exhausted, and even gave birth to a sense of despair that she had never felt before, and she really didn't have the heart to care about Cangfeng's ranking battle anymore. But Qin Wuwu's words have come to this point, and Cangyue can't make any other choices. The face of the royal family cannot be ignored, and the maintenance of the relationship with Heavenly Sword Villa cannot be any worse. She could only nod slightly, closed her eyes and said, "I know...... Prepare the Flying Beasts, and let's set off tomorrow. ”

"Yes. Qin Wuxian finally breathed a sigh of relief.

――――――――――――――――――

The next day, the inner house of Cangfeng Xuanfu.

It was dawn, and there was silence in the inner house. Although it was still early, basically all the disciples of the Inner Mansion had already entered the Juxuan Pagoda. In the Inner Mansion, generally before dawn, the disciples of the Inner Mansion will get up and enter the Juxuan Pagoda, and some will not come out for several days and nights. Every second of cultivation in the Gathering Pagoda was extremely precious, and they did not want to waste it. After leaving the Cangfeng Xuan Mansion, it was basically impossible for them to enter it again.

In front of the Taixuan Palace, three giant snow sculptures were standing there majestically, releasing a faint chill all over their bodies. At the speed of the giant snow sculpture, if you travel day and night, you can reach Tianjian Mountain Villa in thousands of miles a day, and you can reach Tianjian Mountain Villa in two days at most. Next to the three giant snow sculptures, Qin Wuxian was already waiting there, and on his right hand, there stood two young men who looked to be around twenty years old wearing the clothes of the disciples of the Inner Palace. The two looked mediocre, but their eyes were implicitly arrogant, and when they looked at each other, they both had obvious hostility.

These two people are Feng Bufan and Fang Feilong, who have occupied the second and third places in the Inner Mansion Tianxuan List for a long time. Although they are only twenty years old, they are the objects of admiration and admiration of all the disciples of the Xuanfu, they are the famous figures and recognized top geniuses in the entire Cangfeng Imperial City, and they are also the celebrities around the crown prince and the three princes, and they will definitely be in power in the future. Having such an achievement at such an age is enough to make more than ninety percent of the young people of the Cangfeng Empire extremely envious, and their arrogance also comes from this.

It's just that they belong to the camp of the crown prince and the three princes respectively, and they are naturally incompatible. Not only did the two of them look hostile, but their words were constantly mixed with cynicism.

At this time, Cangyue finally came, without heavy loading, without powder, and without any entourage, and came alone.

Qin Wuxian hurriedly stepped forward: "Meet Her Royal Highness the Princess." Princess, what are you...... Why are you here alone? Why don't you have anyone around to protect you? ”

Cang Yue smiled reluctantly and shook her head slightly: "No need." When going to Tianjian Villa, there are fewer and fewer people, and with the Lord of the Qin Mansion on his side, it is better than thousands of followers...... These two are Feng Bufan and Fang Feilong, right?"

Feng Bufan and Fang Feilong also stepped forward to meet Princess Cangyue. But though they were respectful, they did not have the trepidation and excitement that commoners would have in front of a princess. Following the crown prince and the third prince, they knew very well how light this Cangyue princess was in the royal battle. She has no power, and she only has the dignity of a princess, and perhaps the only thing she can rely on is the little power left by the current emperor - including this Cangfeng Xuanfu. When the emperor dies and the dispute between the crown prince and the three princes is clear, the fate of this princess will also be doomed. Speaking of which, even if she is not favored by the Burning Heaven Gate's Burning City, no matter which one of Cang Lin or Cang Shuo is in the future, she will inevitably be disposed of as some kind of bargaining chip for profit.

"What about the incineration dust?" asked Cang Yue, glancing around.

Qin Wuxian shook his head and said helplessly, "Yesterday, I waited here when I knew that the dust would be burned. But we have been waiting for half an hour, but we have not waited for him. Burning the dust is arrogant and never disdains to wait. Maybe I'll have to wait until the end of the hour. In addition, everything is ready, and Her Royal Highness the Princess can rest assured. ”

"The Lord of the Qin Mansion personally arranged a qiē, and I am naturally relieved. Cang Yue said indifferently: "In this case, let's wait here for a while, if the hour passes, the burning dust still hasn't come, there is no need to wait." ”

Cangyue was originally reluctant to Burning Dust to participate in the ranking battle on behalf of their royal family, so she naturally had little patience with him.

"Yes. Qin Wuxian respectfully agreed. But he was sure that the incineration would come within the hour. Because he practiced hard day and night in the Xuanfu, in order to be able to defeat the burning cliff in the Cangfeng Ranking Battle, he was ashamed. In the year leading up to the Cangfeng Ranking Battle, his cultivation intensity in the Juxuan Pagoda reached an almost cruel level, and he was desperately trying to improve his Xuan Power Xuan Gong like a madman every day. And it only took a little more than a year for him to directly cross four levels from the first level of the Lingxuan Realm, and reached the fifth level of the Lingxuan Realm today...... Such crazy progress made Qin Wuxian feel a sense of fear. This also convinced him that, in terms of talent, Burning Dust was no less than Burning Cliff, and even greatly surpassed! If he was the same age as Burning Cliff, Burning Cliff would not be a match for Burning Dust.

As they spoke, a figure appeared in the direction of the entrance to the inner mansion, and walked towards this side without hurrying.

"Oh, it's supposed to be the incineration of the dust. The figure in the distance made Qin Wuxian's spirit shake slightly, and he said to Princess Cangyue. But immediately, he frowned again, and his face showed a deep surprise.

The figure grew closer, becoming clearer in their sight. It was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, dressed in simple white, stained with dust and dew, and looked like he had bathed in the night breeze and dew all night. There was no exaltation in his body - at least not as arrogant as Burning Dust, his face was handsome and white, and he did not have the aura of a mysterious man at all, but like a milk child.

This person is not incinerating dust.

It's Yun Che who rushed back with the stars and the moon!

From the center of the Death Wasteland to the time he got out of the Death Wasteland, it took Yun Che a full eleven days. These eleven days can be described as frightening every step for Yun Che. Especially in the area of the Heavenly Beasts and the Earth Beasts, every step he took was extremely cautious and difficult. and experienced no less than a hundred fatal crises, all of which he avoided and escaped. In this way, in eleven days, with the strength of the True Xuan Realm, he successfully crossed the Death Wasteland that was difficult for half of the Heavenly Xuan Realm powerhouses to pass through safely. Then day and night, six days later, finally in this early morning, I returned to the Cangfeng Xuan Mansion.

After returning to Cangfeng Xuanfu, the first person he met was Qin Wuwu...... And when Qin Wuwu saw him, his expression was like seeing a ghost alive in broad daylight, and he realized that the news of his entry into the Death Wasteland had spread for some time, and they all thought that he had died in the Death Wasteland.

Then, when he heard from Qin Wuwu that the team that went to the Heavenly Sword Mountain Villa to participate in the Cangfeng Qualifying Battle had gathered in front of the Taixuan Hall of the Inner Mansion and was about to set off, he immediately left Qin Wuwu behind and rushed over as fast as he could.

As soon as he came, he saw Qin Wuxian and Cangyue who looked sluggish.

"Lord of the Qin Mansion, Senior Sister, I haven't seen you for a long time...... I am back. Yun Che stood in front of them and said with a smile.
