Chen Ning was dressed in white, sitting on a chair in the study, and looked at Ah Diao with a little surprise: "Sun Shuojie's army slowed down and didn't continue to advance to our side?"

Ah Diao's waist straightened: "Yes, according to the news found by his subordinates, Sun Shuojie's army was stationed in Jiangcheng and did not advance further. It is estimated that they already knew the news that Huangquan was defeated by us, and they were shocked, and they did not dare to venture for the time being. ”

When Kan Jing, Qin Yingqi, the Bull Demon King and others next to him heard this, they couldn't help but show joy, and Fang Zheng said: "Sun Shuojie's army did not continue to advance, but gave us some time to breathe. ”

Kan Jing said: "I have studied Sun Shuojie, he attaches great importance to family affection, and he seems to be generous, but in fact he is stubborn. The more he can't accomplish something, the more he has to fight. So I think he will stop pushing for the time being, but it won't be long before he can't hold back and come at us again. ”

Qin Yingqi said a little: "All our troops add up to only 100,000, but Sun Shuojie has an army of 400,000, especially Sun Shuojie is still a level 12 powerhouse, I'm a little worried that we won't be able to resist their soldiers." ”

The Bull Demon King was a little unhappy when he heard Qin Yingqi's words, and couldn't help but say: "Chief Qin, how can you raise the enemy's morale like this and fall into your own prestige? Since we established the Black Army, we have fought in the south and the north, spanning thousands of miles, and we have never seen any strong winds and waves? You see the 100,000 army led by Huang Quan this time, we easily wiped them out, even if Sun Shuojie came in person, we would still destroy him. ”

Kan Jing said angrily: "We didn't destroy Huangquan easily, we sacrificed many soldiers, and the generals were all injured. ”

If it was someone else, according to the character of the Bull Demon King, he would dare to say two words, but Kan Jing didn't dare to talk back. Not only because Kan Jing used to be his instructor, but also because everyone knows that Kan Jing will definitely be Chen Ning's wife in the future, so the Bull Demon King, who is usually very reckless, has to be honest in front of Kan Jing.

Chen Ning said: "No matter what, Sun Shuojie's temporary suspension of advancement can be regarded as good news for us. However, Qin Yingqi's worries are not unreasonable, I think it is difficult to stop Sun Shuojie's soldiers by relying on us. The day after tomorrow is the birthday of Uncle Bai Chongshan, the guard of Vermilion Bird City, since Sun Shuojie has no intention of continuing to attack for the time being, then I will take the opportunity to go to Vermilion Bird City, first, to celebrate Uncle Bai's birthday, and second, I want to seek some external forces to help us tide over this difficulty. ”

Kan Jing originally wanted to say that Bai Chongshan's strength is not strong, although there are many soldiers under Bai Chongshan's command, but the combat effectiveness is average, and it is okay to defend Vermilion Bird City, if you let those second-rate soldiers in Bai Chongshan go out of the city to fight Sun Shuojie's army, it is estimated that when they reach the battlefield, these second-rate soldiers can run faster than rabbits.

However, when Suga was about to speak, she suddenly remembered. Chen Ning went to Vermilion Bird City, not necessarily to ask Bai Chongshan for help. Because there is still a powerful force in Vermilion Bird City, that is, the Blade Legion that Wei Qing brought from Blue Dragon City.

Although there are only 50,000 men, the Warblade Legion is one of the most elite in the Empire.

Directly commanded by Wei Qing, although it has been relatively low-key in recent years, it is not as eye-catching as the Immortal Bird, Black Shark and Canglong Legion, but the Blade Legion also has a lot of brilliant records, and the former Metropolitan Governor Xiao Ke once praised Wei Qing's Blade Legion, saying that the Blade Legion is the sharpest saber in the Empire.

Although this is a bit exaggerated, it also proves from the side that the Warblade Legion is indeed very strong, and it is the elite of the elite.

However, although the Blade Legion is powerful, Wei Qing was ordered to monitor Chen Ning and Sun Shuojie, and maybe even Wei Qing's task is to eliminate Chen Ning and Sun Shuojie, so Chen Ning wants to ask Wei Qing for help, will it work?

Kan Jing suddenly thought about it: Wei Qing's previous mission must have been Chen Ning and Sun Shuojie, but now Chen Ning has been removed from the charge by the empire, and he also has the background identity of the royal legion, and because of the royal family, Chen Ning now has a good relationship with the pastoral camp, so it is likely that the empire no longer regards Chen Ning as an enemy. In addition, Wei Qing has an interest relationship with Chen Ning, so I can't guarantee that Chen Ning can really say that Wei Qing will be able to help.

At this time, Chen Ning had already announced the adjournment of the meeting, and everyone went back to rest.

Fang Zheng and the others left one after another, and in the end, only Chen Ning and Kan Jing were left.

Chen Ning stretched out a little tiredly, Kan Jing walked over, came behind Chen Ning, put his hands on Chen Ning's shoulders, gently pressed Chen Ning's shoulders, and asked softly, "Do you want to ask Wei Qing for help?"

Chen Ning was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "It seems that I can't hide anything from you." ”

Kan Jing glanced at Chen Ning: "What, you still want to hide something from me?"

Chen Ning smiled slightly, noncommittal, and changed the topic and said, "By the way, I will go to Vermilion Bird City the day after tomorrow, and you will go with me." ”

Kan was stunned when he heard this, but quickly reacted.

Chen Ning went to Vermilion Bird City to celebrate Bai Chongshan's birthday, Bai Chongshan has been operating in Vermilion Bird City for decades, and he is definitely the number one person in Vermilion Bird City, and his birthday naturally can't avoid holding a banquet with great fanfare. Chen Ning goes in and out of this kind of occasion, naturally needs to be accompanied by a female companion, generally in high society, when a man appears on an occasion like a banquet, he will be very faceless if he is not accompanied by a female companion.

Chen Ning and Sugan went to Vermilion Bird City together, which naturally meant that she would be her female companion.

Suga's face did not change, but his eyes were slightly embarrassed, and he said softly: "Okay!"

Chen Ning chatted with Kan Jing for a few more words, and then Chen Ning said goodbye to Kan Jing and went to the practice room to continue cultivating the Purple Qi Donglai Technique.

When I came to the practice room, I immediately had a soldier light an incense burner in the training room, and the incense burner burned all kinds of precious medicinal materials that are conducive to cultivation and can make people calm down, these medicinal materials are very expensive, and even Chen Ning is reluctant to use them on weekdays, because this is really burning money.

However, this time, in order to quickly cultivate the purple qi donglai to the second level, Chen Ning could be regarded as breaking the bank.

When the door of the cultivation room closed, Chen Ning sat down cross-legged and began to cultivate.

Using Tai'a Zen, Chen Ning soon had entered a meditative state and entered his own spiritual world.

In the spiritual world, the Nine Dragons Jade Seal is suspended above the sea of spirits.

The nine divine dragons of different sizes and shapes on the jade seal are all lifelike, but only the dragon with its eyes open exudes a fierce light that is breathtaking, and its whole body exudes a powerful aura, and the other eight dragons have no energy fluctuations.

"Purple Qi comes from the east, turn!"

As Chen Ning's words sounded in the spiritual world, the Nine Dragons Jade Seal immediately buzzed, and then spun quickly.

The originally calm sea of spirits, because of the tornado generated by the rotation of the Nine Dragons Jade Seal, the sea of spirits also began to appear whirlpools, and the whirlpools became bigger and bigger, and finally the sea water was sucked up by the tornado, forming a spectacle of dragons absorbing water.

The boundless sea of spirits, as the dragon absorbs water, is slowly sinking, and the sea water is rapidly decreasing.

One hour, two hours, three hours......

Nine hours later, it was already seven o'clock in the morning of the next day, when the water of force in Chen Ning's spiritual sea was about to be consumed, the Nine Dragons Jade Seal, which had absorbed the water of force all night, was the penultimate dragon before he suddenly opened his eyes and let out a dragon roar that shook the sky.

This time the one who opened his eyes was a little more powerful than the dragon, and his name was Candle Dragon.

Jiaolong is actually Jiao, Jiao is not a real dragon, between a snake and a dragon. The horns of the dragon are straight and short, and there are no forks, and the dragon is two forked. Moreover, the dragon does not have dragon scales, the tail is still bare, and the Jiao only has one pair of claws, while the dragon has two pairs.

The candle dragon is one level higher than the dragon, although the horns have not changed, but the body has dragon scales, and it is four pairs of dragon claws, which looks even more majestic.

When Chen Ning cultivated the Purple Qi Donglai Technique to the second level, dense dragon scales quietly appeared on Chen Ning's skin, and if someone was in the cultivation room now, he would definitely be shocked by Chen Ning's current appearance, because Chen Ning's appearance at this time was like a dragon man covered with Lin armor.

Whew-

Chen Ning breathed a sigh of relief and opened his eyes.

When he opened his eyes, the armor on his body immediately retreated quietly like a mimosa, and all of them shrank into Chen Ning's skin, without any clues.

Chen Ning didn't know the changes in his body, he stood up and moved his hands and feet, muttering, "The first level of the Purple Qi East Technique is to have the power of the dragon, so that the cultivator has divine power, I don't know what the second level of ability is?"
