More than 20 years ago, the imperial capital of the Ji Dynasty was still in the territory of the Xia Kingdom.

The glorious Ji Dynasty has not yet been divided into east and west due to the "Chiyan Rebellion". At that time, the tribes of the Northern Continent gradually grew under the leadership of the Sabu barbarian king Asaranti, who got the "Heavenly Fang", and gradually formed a trend of fighting against the Ji Dynasty.

Since ancient times, the Beilu tribe and the Ji Dynasty have had wars from time to time, and then because of the rise of the Shu Kingdom, they guarded the northern gate of Ji, so they have been peaceful for many years. It wasn't until Emperor Ji Chu learned that the barbarian king Asalanti had obtained the blade of gods and demons "Heavenly Vertical Fang", and he was afraid that there would be changes in the northern continent, and he gradually panicked all day long, and he didn't think about tea and dinner. In the end, at the suggestion of his ministers, Emperor Ji Chu used the strategy of marriage to win over the barbarian king as his son-in-law in exchange for peace in the world.

However, at that time, Emperor Ji Chu only had a minor sister Mu Zhi, and in addition, the Mu royal family did not have a daughter to marry a princess. And the proposal of the ministers is actually to marry the princess with the daughter of the princes and marry the princess far away from Hokuriku. After the princes of the countries learned of this, they had a lot of complaints for a while, and the undercurrent quietly surged here.

Yun Han, the lord of the state of Shu, who learned of this, volunteered to marry Beilu as a princess in exchange for peace in the world, despite the opposition of the clan of the state of Shu.

Yun Han is the aunt of Yun Ji, the current lord of the country.

Yun Han's eldest brother is Yun Jin, who is serving as the commander of the guards in front of the Son of Heaven Palace in the imperial capital at this time, and the second brother is Yun Chen, who is the prince of the Shu Kingdom. After learning that Yun Han recommended herself as a marriage princess to marry Beilu, Yun Chen and Yun Jin raised strong objections.

They thought it was just their sister's impulse, and begged their father to imprison their sister Yunhan in the palace of Mingyue City, but by the time the Son of Heaven decreed that he had reached the kingdom of dreams, it was too late.

That year, tens of thousands of heavily armored Chiyan warriors came to Mingyue City in Jibei for the first time and took Yun Han away as a marriage princess with a holy decree. As the "Bloody Eyes and Frost Hoof", who is the divine beast of the town of Shuguo, after witnessing all this, she was not relieved to go to Yunhan, for fear that she would be bullied in Beilu, so she accompanied Yunhan to Beilu.

After seeing Yun Han, the barbarian king of the Sabu was very satisfied with this princess from the Ji Dynasty and always treated her with courtesy. However, Yun Han's eldest brother Yun Jin was afraid that Yun Han would be wronged, so he picked an auspicious day of the zodiac, ran to Beilu, and had a vigorous competition with the barbarian king Asaranti in the martial arts arena of Tianguang City, the capital of Beilu at that time, and finally the barbarian king Asaranti won the recognition of Yun Jin, and Yun Jin won the respect of the barbarians.

A year later, Yun Han gave birth to a son for Asalanti. Unfortunately, before the family could share their family, because of the conspiracy of the Black Heaven Sect, this poor child lost his parents just after birth.

This poor child is the faith of the Chiyan warrior and the reincarnation of the eldest son of the Emperor of Heaven, "Xi". On the day of his birth, the Ten Marquis of Hokuriku listened to the instigation of the Black Sky and launched a rebellion against the Sa Division.

The despicable ten princes of Beilu slandered the barbarian king for attempting to declare war on the Ji Dynasty, so in order for the Ji Dynasty to live in harmony with the Beilu, they rebelled against the Sabu, and used these lies as a fig leaf to cover up the fact that they rebelled and killed the king!

The first tribe on the grassland, "Sa", was wiped out in a rebellion jointly launched by ten tribes, and Yun Han and the barbarian king of Sabu were killed in the northern capital of Tianguang City. And their child, the baby who was thought to have died in the war by the Black Heaven Sect, was returned to Yun Chen's hands by the "Bloody Eyes and Frost Hoof" during this period.

After that, the "Blood-Eyed Frost Wolf" disappeared.

......

Shortly after the end of the rebellion of the Ten Marquis of Hokuriku, a sandalwood box containing the head of the Barbarian King was presented to the imperial capital "Rin Feng", which was located in the territory of the Xia Kingdom at that time, as a gift from the Ten Marquis of Hokuriku to bow down to the Ji Dynasty.

When the head of the barbarian king was delivered to the imperial capital, Yun Jin, who was the commander of the Son of Heaven (Yun Han and Yun Chen's eldest brother), and the child of a low-ranking Chiyan warrior was born on this starless and moonless night. With the baby's crying, the "Chiyan Rebellion", which divided the Ji Dynasty into east and west, came as scheduled.

(The imperial capital of the Ji Dynasty has undergone three changes so far.) At first, it was in the Windy City in the Xia Kingdom, but it was destroyed during the "Red Yan Rebellion". Then, the Ji divides things. The Dongji Emperor was set in Jingyue City in the territory of the Shu Kingdom, and the Xiji Emperor was set in the Hundred Flowers City. When the "Heavenly Fire Tribulation" came to the world, Jingyue City turned into scorched earth, and the Dongji Dynasty, which was regarded as the orthodoxy of the Ji Dynasty by later generations, fell into chaos due to the loss of the Son of Heaven, and the princes of the countries killed and fought in a melee, and then the Xiji Eight Pillars invaded, and there was a good story of Liang Yi and the division of the Seven Kingdoms going to Jingwei Pass to resist the strong enemy Kuang Fu Dongji. Nowadays, the imperial capital of Xiji is still in Baihua City, and the imperial capital of Dongji is set in the "Jingguang" in the territory of Luoguo. ）

At that time, the imperial capital was still in the territory of the Xia Kingdom, although there were Chiyan warriors in charge of the defense of the royal city, but there were still many Xia Blood Tiger Cavalry stationed in the city as a preparation for King Qin. Since the establishment of the Ji Dynasty, there has been friction between the imperial power and the princes, because the Mu royal family has Chiyan warriors as a forbidden army, so most of the princes are angry and dare not speak.

On a starless and moonless night, the legendary twelve popes of the Black Sky Sect descended on the imperial capital. They tried to snatch "Shuo", who had been reincarnated as the son of Yun Jin, from Yun Jin's hands under the noses of the Chiyan warriors who had not yet noticed the abnormality.

In the process, Yun Jin's wife died in battle, and the infant child was taken captive by this group of women in black. The rampaging Yun Jin broke through the limit of martial arts with the Flying Flower Sword in his hand, fought to the death with the twelve sects of the Black Heaven Sect who came to attack, and finally collapsed in a pool of blood due to physical exhaustion.

At the critical moment, the long-missing "Bloody Eye Frosthoof" suddenly appeared, and together with the commander of the Ninth Legion of the Chiyan Warriors, Mul Kali, and several other leaders of the Chiyan Warriors, they started a fierce battle with the Twelve Popes of the Black Sky Sect.

A group of fourteenth-order "selfless" realm martial artists fought in the imperial capital. The black flames crisscrossed for ten miles, turning the endless prosperity into scorched earth, the wails were endless, and the flesh and white bones were wiped out in the snap of a finger, obviously a man-made disaster but as if it was a natural disaster.

In the melee, "Bloody Eyes and Frosthoof" determined that the Black Sky Sect's target was Yun Jin's child, so he took advantage of the scuffle between the Twelve Black Sky Sects and the Chiyan Warrior Legion Leaders to snatch Yun Jin's son and quickly flee.

Seeing this, a Black Sky Pontiff chased after him, and Mulkali hurried out of battle to follow. The rest of the Red Yan Warrior Legion Commanders dragged the remaining Black-clothed Pope in the meantime. However, after seeing the baby being robbed, the twelve black-clothed popes had no intention of fighting, and after another fierce battle, they immediately disappeared into the black flames.

Before these Chiyan warrior legion leaders could come to their senses, the blood tiger riders of the Xia Kingdom followed the noisy fight and swarmed to the scene. As a result, these blood tiger riders saw the corpse of Yun Jin, the commander of the palace guards who died in battle, as well as the mess at the scene, and they all showed their swords to the commanders of the Chiyan warriors.

Due to the delicate relationship between the imperial power and the princes, the Chiyan warriors, who were the forbidden army of the royal family, often had frictions with the major vassal states of the Ji Dynasty, and it was unexpected that these small frictions would break out together on such a night!

Seeing that the commander of the Son of Heaven's guards was dead, and the Chiyan warrior legion was covered in blood, these Xia Kingdom Blood Tiger Riders didn't listen to the explanation of the Chiyan warriors' legion commanders, and directly pulled out their swords and surrounded them. Seeing this, an irascible Chiyan warrior legion commander killed all these blood tiger riders on the spot without controlling his emotions.

Subsequently, this scene was seen and spread by the followers of the Black Heaven Sect, and it became the blood tiger rider of the Xia Kingdom who killed the commander of the Son of Heaven and King Qin by the royal forbidden army. The world-famous "Chiyan Rebellion" officially began because of this rumor...

After escaping from the battlefield, the "Bloody Eyes and Frosthoof" directly took the son of Yun Jin out of the imperial capital, and not long after, the chasing Black Sky Pontiff had a fierce battle with it, but fortunately, Mul Kali arrived in time to help the "Bloody Eyes and Frosthoof".

When the Black Sky Pope was repulsed, news of the rebellion of the Chiyan warriors came from the imperial capital. Due to the reappearance of the Black Heaven Sect, considering the seriousness of the matter, "Bloody Eyes Frosthoof" did not bring the child back to the Kingdom of Su and hand it over to Yun Chen, but entrusted it to Mul Kali, and asked Mul Kali to take the child away from the imperial capital and go incognito.

Since then, there is no more Mulle Kali, the commander of the Ninth Legion of the Chiyan Samurai, in the world, but there is one more "Spiegel Layman" Ye Qingrao outside Autumn Leaves City. Later, the "Chiyan Rebellion" swept Dongji, and the "Yixin Sword", which was originally used as the imperial sword by the Mu royal family, disappeared in the process.

Some people say that this sword was stolen by the Chiyan warriors, and some people say that this sword was actually taken away by Ye Qingrao at the beginning of the Chiyan Rebellion. At that time, Ye Qingrao was precisely shouldering the duty of guarding the emperor's sword, but these are all due to the age, and now there is no evidence at all.

Later, the "Bloody Eyes and Frost Hoof" returned to the North Continent, painstakingly looking for the "Heavenly Vertical Teeth" lost in the rebellion of the Ten Marquis of the North Continent, and more than 20 years passed in a blink of an eye.

......

Dongji Shuguo, Bright Moon City, night.

After years of traveling, Bloody Eyes Frosthoof has finally returned to its familiar homeland, the dream country of Bright Moon City. At this moment, on the steps outside the Hanguang Palace, this snow-colored giant wolf was lying on Yun Ji's side to rest, looking very much like a child sleeping next to his mother.

The Zhenguo Divine Beast of the Kingdom of Su is a giant wolf with a burly body, bloody eyes and black pupils, and snow-white velvet hair. Legend has it that when this giant wolf is furious, the frost mist will linger between its hooves and claws, and everything in heaven and earth will be shrouded in endless snow in its long roar.

The world-famous "blue-eyed wolf" is the descendant of the "blood-eyed frost hoof" and the snowy wolf of the country. It is a pity that these blue-eyed blue wolves experienced the "Chiyan Rebellion" and survived the "Heavenly Fire Tribulation", but finally disappeared in the unexpected wind and snow in the Battle of Jingwei Pass.

The rest of the wolf cubs were also poisoned and killed by the spies sent by Mexico in the second war between Mexico and Shuguo, and since then there has been no wolf riding in Shuguo.

The year Yun Ji was born, "Bloody Eyes and Frosthoof" had just left Bright Moon City and followed her aunt Yun Han to the North Continent. Because the "blood-eyed frosthoof" as a breeding wolf left, no new "blue-eyed blue wolf" was born.

Later, when the "Bloody Eyes and Frost Hoof" sent Yun Fan back to Yun Chen's hands, the young Yun Ji had a hurried glance at it, and it was more than 20 years since they said goodbye.

This divine beast, which has lived for thousands of years, now knows human nature well. But Yun Ji is not afraid of it at all, to her, this giant beast that looks fierce to outsiders is actually just like a family member. Although it has missed its own growth in the past twenty years, Yun Ji knows that no matter what happens, the "Bloody Eye Frost Hoof" will appear in time when the Yun clan needs it most, and the "inheritance" and "protection" of the "Blood Contract" are the eternal bonds that it is inseparable from the Yun clan.

Under the moonlight, her slender hand caressed the warm snow hair of the "Blood-Eyed Frost Wolf", she did not speak, quietly put her palm on its heart, silently feeling its heartbeat and its breathing.

At this time, the world is in the middle of autumn and winter.

Bright Moon City, located in the Shuguo Kingdom of Jibei, has always been the first place to feel the winter mood among the kingdoms of the world. However, this year, although it was the first to feel the winter mood, it was not the first to usher in frost and snow.

As early as half a month ago, there was a sudden heavy snow that swept through Jibei, and only Mingyue City failed to meet this snow, which is really incredible.

The winter in Jibei is longer than anywhere else in the world, and many plants and animals will either sleep or die in such winter. Therefore, many people living in Mingyue City had prepared winter food and warm clothes before the end of autumn.

The evening breeze blows between the sleeves, and the moonlight pours on the stone steps.

Above the canopy, there is a few clear air.

The palace man who had been waiting by Yun Ji's side was afraid that she would catch a cold, so he took a robe and wanted to put it on for her, but Yun Ji refused. Under the bright moonlight, in front of the cold Hanguang Palace.

She stretched out her arms to hug the sleeping "Bloody Eyes Frosthoof", like a little girl hugging her beloved stuffed animal. The Hanguang Hall behind her was the former bedroom of Yun Han's aunt Yun Han, but now, it has become her palace.

The wind gently lifted her forehead hair, Yun Ji slowly closed her eyes, and leaned her ears on the heart of "Bloody Eyes and Frost Hoof", and then the giant wolf was caught off guard and hugged Yun Ji into his arms.

The palace people on the side were frightened by this scene, and immediately showed their swords, which made Yun Ji laugh. With a wave of the jade hand, the palace man put the sword in the sheath and continued to guard Yun Ji like a stone statue.

Compared with the robe, the hair of the "Bloody Eyes and Frost Hoof" is warmer, and there is an indescribable aroma of plants and trees in its hair, I wonder if it was wiped by the palace maid who bathed it a few days ago, or its natural unique body fragrance.

Yun Jihe likes this taste very much, not only is it not pungent, but it also makes her feel very calm. She hadn't felt this way in a long time. She had a lot of things to deal with during the day, and she didn't stop at night. Since he succeeded to the throne, he has not had a complete dream in the true sense of the word.

Before, she didn't have a choice, and now she has the same.

There are some roads that you can't turn back once you set foot on them.

You can only go on and on, and go on and on.

She listened intently to the heartbeat of Bloody Eyes and Frosthoof, and was surrounded by its warmth. Its body temperature dispelled the chill of the night. At this time, Yun Ji suddenly found that the original feeling of happiness and satisfaction was so simple.

When she stretched out her right index finger and gently drew a love heart on the claw of "Bloody Eye Frost Hoof", an indescribable force surged in Yun Ji's veins in an instant, her vision gradually blurred, and she closed her eyes out of fear. An indescribable chill surged over her immediately, but only for a moment. When Yun Ji opened her eyes again, the chill dissipated, and the frost and mist that came from nowhere lingered in Yun Ji's fingers at this time.

She looked at the "Bloody Eyes Frost Hoof" suspiciously, and the "Bloody Eyes Frost Hoof" also opened her sleepy eyes at this time and made eye contact with her. Then, a deep voice suddenly sounded in Yun Ji's mind: "This is the power of the Blood Contract. ”

Yun Ji: "Are you talking to me?"

Bloody Eyes Frosthoof: "Accident." ”

Yun Ji: "Accident, but not accident. ”

Blood-Eyed Frosthoof: "Accidental deity can speak?"

Yun Ji: "It's not surprising that you can speak, after all, it's a thousand-year-old divine beast, it's really surprising if you can't speak, but the way you communicate with me now is not the kind of speech that the human race pronounces with opening and closing lips and teeth, I think it's more like a divine relationship." ”

Bloody Eyes Frosthoof: "The blood contract makes the deity and the Yun clan coexist, except for your Yun clan, no one can hear what the deity says, ordinary people seem to be talking to yourself at this moment." ”

(What is the "Blood Pact"?)

That is, with blood as an oath, choose a family to sign a contract. If the blood of the clan that signed a contract with the divine beast fails to be passed on and dies due to various reasons in the years to come, then the divine beast that signed a contract with this family will also usher in death.

Thousands of years ago, "Shuo" used the method of blood sacrifice to make the twelve divine beasts lose their flesh and blood, until later, "Xi" defeated "Shuo", and the Emperor of Heaven gave the twelve divine beasts a chance to be reborn in the dawn of dawn, and the price of this opportunity was to sign a "blood contract" with the strong of the human race.

The "Blood Contract" contains the meaning of "protection" and "inheritance", and establishes the symbiotic relationship between the human race and the divine beast. In exchange, the beast will guard the family for generations to come. The family that is selected by the divine beast, each generation will have a family member randomly obtain some special divine powers of the divine beast, which can be said to be a gift from the divine beast, in case "the sky has unforeseen circumstances".

In the Mansion of the Prince of Autumn Leaf City in the Yan Kingdom, the young man named Chu Ci was part of the power of the Wind Qilin that he had obtained, so he was able to manipulate the Wind Blade and fight with the "Shuo" who had not fully awakened. Chu Ci was able to shine so well that night, not just as simple as stepping into the realm of heart martial arts.

In a sense, the Wind Lin Sword is not a sword, but the Wind Qilin itself. If Chu Ci at that time completely awakened the Feng Qilin in the Feng Lin Sword, then Meng Jian, who was at war with him, would have to face the Feng Qi Lin, and Chu Ci, who had part of the strength of the Feng Qi and entered the realm of heart martial arts. Since the Wind Qilin has no entity, Chu Ci can increase his combat power by letting the Wind Qilin possess him.

In short, Chu Ci, who was located in the eleventh-order "Ascending Peak Realm", could fight against a martial artist at the peak of the fourteenth-order "Selfless Realm" by merging with the disembodied Wind Qilin......

Among the twelve divine beasts that signed the "Blood Contract" with the human race, only the Wind Qilin is so special, so here I will focus on recalling, as to why the Wind Qilin chose to give up its body to inhabit the Wind Lin Sword, it will be mentioned later.

After being reborn, the divine beasts no longer have the power to destroy the world because they were previously deprived of the power of the demon god sealed in their bloodline by the method of blood sacrifice by "Shuo", but after all, they are still divine beasts, and because of the effectiveness of the "blood contract", they have the strength slightly higher than the peak of the fourteenth-order heart martial realm, so they can still turn the clouds and rain and reach thousands of horses.

The family that signed a contract with them drew these mythical beasts as totems as family crests. And why do most of these divine beasts choose the big families to sign the contract, but not ordinary civilians?

Because ordinary civilians can easily die due to various reasons such as war, famine, disease, etc., resulting in the severance of bloodline, but those big families are pampered, at least on the issue of bloodline inheritance.

However, not all divine beasts have chosen the family to sign the contract, such as the aforementioned Feng Qilin, the head of the Chu family who was selected by him back then was just a blacksmith. ）

......

Blood-eyed Frosthoof looked curiously at the woman lying in her arms: "I'm curious about what will surprise you compared to this deity." ”

"Accident you will talk to me. Between the words, Yun Ji turned her head and smiled with it, and smiled with bloody eyes and frosty hooves: "Let's talk more about it later." ”

Yun Ji smiled and hugged it: "Okay!"

Bloody Eyes Frosthoof: "It seems that the little girl from many years ago still hasn't grown up now." ”

Yun Ji: "It's good to be a little girl once in a while. ”

Bloody Eyes Frosthoof: "Then this little girl, aren't you surprised that the frost and snow that lingers between your fingers at this moment, what will it be?"

Yun Ji: "The power you gave me?"

Blood-Eyed Frosthoof: "Part of the power." ”

Yun Ji: "It's also a blood contract?"

Bloody Eyes Frosthoof: "The little girl knows a lot. ”

Yun Ji: "The little girl in your arms is not an ordinary little girl, she is the lord of a country, and she is in charge of the power of killing others!

Bloody Eyes Frosthoof: "So a lot of people want to kill this little girl, including herself." Really?"

Yun Ji: "You'll always be there." ”

Bloody Eyes and Frosthoof: "The deity always has more important things to do, so when the deity is away, the little girl must protect herself." If you can't even protect yourself, how can you protect others? ”

Yun Ji: "I didn't say who I want to protect. ”

Bloody eyes and frost hoof: "The people of the Yun clan are all duplicitous. ”

Yun Ji didn't pay attention, just looked at the frost mist between her fingers, and asked the bloody eyes and frost hoof: "That... How does this work?"

Bloody Eyes Frosthoof: "Close your eyes and feel with your heart." ”

So, Yun Ji listened to the words of Bloody Eyes and Frosthoof, closed her eyes, and felt the taste of frost and mist lingering between her fingers. In his ears, the cold wind was slaughtering, and the palace people on the side looked at Yun Ji in front of him and waved his slender jade hand to himself, not daring to speak.

The moon is pouring, in front of the Hanguang Palace,

On the bluestone steps, frost and mist condensed.

Just as Yun Ji was about to wave her fingertips, a huge roar came from the direction of Lu Yuan in Mirror Moon City. The sound was like a god swinging a heavenly hammer to hit the mountains and peaks, and the entire Bright Moon City and Mirror Moon City were awakened from their sleep in this loud noise.

It feels like a landslide and the ground cracks, real and illusory.

Yun Ji got up and looked into the distance: "What happened." ”

Blood-eyed frosthoof lazily turned over and lay in front of Yun Ji, as if he already knew something: "Small fights, don't care." ”

Yun Ji was suspicious of Bloody Eyes and Frosthoof's words, and before she could order someone to go and find out, a palace man who hurried from outside the palace sent news about the Lu Garden in Mirror Moon City in time.

After reading the news, Yun Ji looked at the bloody eyes and frost hoof in surprise: "How did you know?"

Blood-Eyed Frosthoof sighed, "I heard that." ”
