In the bitter cold mountains of the north.

Yesterday there was another heavy snowfall, the temperature plummeted a lot, the leaves of the willows had long since dried up, and the leaves of the coniferous pines were frozen with a layer of crystal ice. The entire mountain range was covered with a thick layer of snow.

Deep in the mountains, in the lair of the Nightfish, the ancient buildings were also covered with a layer of snow.

Wu Yan, dressed as a bride, stood alone in front of the window of a seven-storey ancient building in the city, and her delicate red was extremely dazzling in the snow of the ancient building. She looked out the window at the wind-swept snow, which covered the ancient city with a white color.

The snow was much heavier than that day. Thinking like this, Wu Yan stretched out his white slender fingers to catch a small piece of flying snow.

Behind her stood the maid, and four old slaves waited in another room, waiting for her edict at any time.

A few days ago, when she was ordered to go after the black cat and Xu Guan with the eldest prince of the Night Beast Clan, she had already taken the opportunity to send the sachet to Xu Guan's hands. She heard the two old slaves who came back report that the task was completed, nodded with satisfaction, and said in her heart, this idiot, should know who she is now.

The maid saw that the master was distracted, and the wind and snow outside the window were heavy, so she stretched out her hand to close the window while making her own opinion, and said softly: "Miss, be careful of catching a cold." ”

Wu Yan smiled and said, "It's just a little wind and snow, it's not in the way." "It would be incredible if she, the protector of the Lich Clan, could be injured by this ordinary cold weather.

The maid said, "Miss, but you're still thinking about Xu Guan Gongzi?"

"Hmm. Wu Yan rarely hides his secrets from his henchmen, and he usually doesn't hide anything from her when he has something in his heart.

Although the slave maid is not very familiar with Xu Guan Gongzi, after a short contact, I feel that he is not a person who gives up easily. He was very assertive. ”

"His temper has always been so stubborn. Wu Yan seemed to be complaining, but also with some worry. "I don't know if he will listen to me this time. ”

Naturally, the maid didn't know the answer, so she didn't answer. At this time, an old slave knocked on the door to report that the patriarch of the Lich Clan had come to pick up the young lady.

After the secret conversation was exposed that day, the devourer issued an urgent summoning order, summoning back the master of the Yelu Clan. On the other hand, on the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, he also issued an order to the low-level night rays, so that they no longer had to worry about the rules of the inn and hunted the living recklessly. This order directly led to a night of chaos in Kyushu, and the brainless nightfish at the bottom suffered heavy casualties and were almost wiped out, but it doesn't matter, those are just cannon fodder, under the cover of the Kyushu chaos, the masters who were summoned have returned to their nests one after another.

Unlike the Lich Clan, which dispersed their combat power, the overall combat power of the Nightfish was far weaker than that of the Inn and the Lich Clan, and even if they dispersed all their combat power, it would only be a drop in the ocean for the huge Kyushu, and it was far inferior to gathering together to exert their greatest strength.

Therefore, the task in this war was to consolidate the combat forces, make the biggest disturbance in the north, and force the inn to have to send a considerable amount of manpower to deal with them. If this plan is successful, it will be able to contain some of the Inn's combat power, and play a supporting role in the Lich Clan and the Inn's head-on hard shock.

Wu Yan did not leave after discussing the alliance with them, on the one hand, to stay and supervise the actions of the Yelu Clan, so that they would not regret halfway and suddenly withdraw their troops, and on the other hand, for the sake of calming the hearts of the Yelu Clan, the protector of the Lich Clan will advance and retreat with you, and you don't have to worry about being abandoned by my Lich Clan as an outcast.

With permission, Eater took his second son, Eater, to Wu Yan's room.

Devouring Yuan was severely punished by Devouring Yuan for helping Black Cat and Xu Guan steal the fruit of the Great God Tree last time without permission, and for implicating his third uncle. Since that day, Devouring Yuan has always shown a state of self-blame that regrets not being enough, and although Devouring Yuan punished him, he still cares about this second son very much in his heart.

One day he came to talk to the devouring abyss, and learned that the devouring abyss was depressed all day long because of self-blame and hatred for Xu Guan Black Cat deceived him, and after further temptation, the devouring striage expressed his attitude towards this war, and was no longer as resolute as before: Sometimes, it is still necessary to show the strength of the Yelu clan to outsiders, otherwise they really think that the Yelu clan has completely declined.

Hearing that Eater Yuan's opinion had changed, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and patted his son on the shoulder: "This is my good son!"

Today, in addition to his father and son, there are six white-bearded old men sitting in the hall downstairs. They're going to uncover a big, hidden secret about the nightfish's deepest depths, in order to show their trust in the Lich, or rather, to make the Lich trust them completely. After consulting with the six old men, he decided to invite Wu Yan to watch them uncover the secret.

After listening to the devouring deer's explanation, Wu Yan asked, "I don't know what the secret is, is it worth the devouring deer patriarch to mobilize the people so much?"

He smiled and said, "A secret that has been passed down from generation to generation by the Night Raid Clan. He said proudly, "After that secret is completely revealed, the power of the Nightmares may not be able to compete with the nobles and inns. ”

"How can there be such a thing?" Wu Yandai raised her eyebrows, she had never heard of the Night Ray Clan having such hole cards before.

"Wu Yan's protector will know when he sees it. ”

"Good. Wu Yan answered, and left the room with the devouring deer and the others, and the maid and the four old slaves also wanted to follow, but were stopped by the devouring deer: "Even if I am a member of the Yelu clan, I am not easily qualified to participate in the witness. ”

"Then stay here and wait for me to come back. Wu Yan turned around and explained to the maid, and went with the devouring deer and the others.

The maid and the four old slaves stood at the door, watching Wu Yan and the others walking farther and farther away in the wind mixed with broken snow, and couldn't help but whisper: "Miss is a daughter, and she is used to sitting in a sedan chair." How can the same group of aliens rush in the wind and snow like this. ”

The four old slaves also nodded in agreement, but they were helpless. I had to watch Wu Yan leave, and only when they could no longer see their backs in the wind and snow did the five return to the room.

The devouring deer was in front, followed by the second son Devouring Yuan on the left hand, Wu Yan on the right hand, and the six white-bearded old men with the oldest seniority of the Yelu clan were at the end.

They walked out of the ancient town and into the deeper mountains, passing a large clearing where the ground was covered with snow and below was a layer of dead leaves that were almost rotting.

When the devouring deer and the six old men passed there, they all looked at it in unison, and the sadness in their eyes could not be concealed, and when they had gone a long way, they returned to normal and continued to walk forward.

Wu Yan wasn't from the Nightfish Clan, and he didn't understand why they had the same reaction when they saw that clearing.

The devouring deer seemed to know the doubts in Wu Yan's heart, and he said in a dull voice, "The clearing we passed through just now, where the Great Divine Tree used to grow luxuriantly. ”

Wu Yan let out a low sigh, knowing that the Great Divine Tree was of great significance to the Nightfish Clan, and now that it was dead, it had dealt a great blow to the spiritual beliefs of the Nightfish Clan, and it was no wonder that the Devouring Tree would have a sad outpouring of emotions when they passed there.

After the devouring deer finished saying that, several old men behind him lamented a few times, and even the youngest devouring abyss showed a sad look on his face, which showed the emotion and importance of the Yelu clan to the Great God Tree.

I'm sorry, I'm guilty. Yesterday was really not the third chapter. I will definitely make up for it today.
