Wei Qing shook his head and said, "It's just a little out of strength, and you can recover after a moment of pranayama." ”

"That's good!" Ye Lu let out a sigh of relief and said.

The two returned to the city wall, and after the battle just now, the alien army had retreated to the jungle 100,000 zhang away, which temporarily eased the battle situation on the south city gate, and greatly reduced the pressure on defending the city.

"What is the current battle situation of the two city gates in the east and west?" Standing on the city wall, Ye Lu asked the soldiers who followed him.

The soldier said with a solemn face: "It's not optimistic, what appeared at the east gate is the fifth giant stone man in the Yuan Infant Period, and the one at the west gate is even more terrifying, it is actually a mountain." ”

"A mountain?" Ye Lu asked without reacting.

The soldier nodded and said, "It's a mountain alienated by a foreign race, a huge mountain. ”

Boom, a loud bang came out, and the entire Xinye City shook violently, especially the large protective array, which flickered violently, and it was obvious that it was under fierce attack.

At this time, a soldier in the distance galloped in a panic, and before he came close, he said directly: "Lord Ye, it's not good, the alien race at the West City Gate has approached the city wall, and the one over there is in danger, the city lord asks you to support as soon as possible." ”

Wei Qing was sitting cross-legged three zhang behind Ye Lu at this time, closing his eyes and breathing, at this moment, the Qianding in his right eye jumped, he didn't open his eyes with a wrinkle, and just happened to see a soldier galloping from a distance.

This person had already come to Ye Lu's face, within a zhang, his face was panicked, but in his eyes, he did not see the slightest panic, but there was a kind of bloodthirsty coldness.

Wei Qing did not hesitate, raised his right hand, and gently rubbed it against the soldier.

"Flick your finger sword!"

With a buzz, a bright sword light floated on Wei Qing's fingertips, and then bloomed with dazzling light, illuminating the sky above the city for a while.

Everyone saw that a thousand-strong sword qi shot out, piercing through the soldier's eyebrows, almost cutting it in half.

Ye Lu's expression changed, and he retreated a few feet to avoid the blood that was spilled.

"Fellow Daoist, what are you ......" Ye Lu's expression changed several times, and finally he didn't choose to make a move.

Wei Qing slowly stood up, came to the corpse of the soldier, and grabbed it in the air.

A glowing speck of dust floated up and fell into the palm of his hand, and then he said slowly: "This is a spy of an alien race. ”

As soon as his words fell, a black shadow suddenly floated above the corpse of the slain soldier, and let out a terrible scream towards Wei Qing, and then with a bang, it exploded directly and disappeared.

Ye Lu's face turned pale, at such a close distance, if he was attacked by a sneak attack, he would not be able to react at all, and the person who attacked him was a personal soldier he trusted very much, and he was a veteran Jindan powerhouse who had been on the battlefield for a long time, and his combat power was more than several percent higher than that of ordinary sect monks, and when he thought about it, he felt a chill rise behind him.

"Daoyou saved Zai's life again. Ye Lu bowed deeply to Wei Qing and said respectfully.

"Fellow Daoists are not more polite. Wei Qing said with a faint smile.

"In Xia Ye Lu, not only Dao Friends have a great name?" Ye Lu asked with a smile.

Wei Qing returned to his previous position and sat cross-legged again, before he replied, "In the next week, Changqi, disciple of Yaoding Mountain." ”

A look of surprise flashed on Ye Lu's face, and he exclaimed: "I didn't expect that in addition to the outstanding pills, even the skills of Yao Ding Mountain are so amazing. ”

Wei Qing shook his head and said, "Before Xia Zai came here, he had been practicing outside for a hundred years, and there were some adventures that would be like this. ”

Ye Lu showed a sudden expression, and after being silent for a while, he turned to the soldiers beside him and ordered: "Send all the soldiers on this side of the South City Gate to the East City Gate to ensure that nothing goes wrong there." ”

"Yes, sir!"

As the soldier left in a hurry, all the soldiers on this side were transferred.

This is Ye Lu is not in a hurry to go to the West City Gate to see the situation, but sits beside Wei Qing, sighs slightly, and says: "Let me re-introduce, I, Ye Lu, the third son of Ye Zhongliang, the prime minister of the Divine Dynasty." ”

A look of surprise flashed in Wei Qing's eyes, he had felt that this person was different before, and he couldn't imagine that he was actually the son of the prime minister of the Heavenly God Dynasty.

Looking at the city wall, he said leisurely: "When the alien race just broke out, I came to Xinye City, which can be regarded as my father's test for me, if the city gate is lost this time, the contemptible people will enter the army according to my father's arrangement, and they can't choose to be with their beloved women." ”

"Isn't it good to enter the army? You can not only get the luck of your official position, but also hone your skills through constant fighting. Wei Qing said.

"I have never wanted to enter the army and enter the official career, I just thought that when I am high, I will go to the ends of the earth with my beloved woman and live the life I want to live. Ye Lu's eyes flashed with anticipation.

Then, with a grim expression, he said: "Therefore, Xinye City cannot be lost, I must keep it, and this is the condition I negotiated with my father." ”

Wei Qing shook his head, he knew human nature best, the prime minister did this, it was just an expedient measure, in order to keep him away from the imperial capital, in this way, the woman he liked would be in danger.

That woman's identity must be very ordinary, at least not as illustrious as his background, so this woman is more than lucky.

His lips moved, Wei Qing didn't express his suspicions after all, after all, he and Ye Lu were just in contact, and if he said it at this time, most of the other party would not believe it, and they would feel bad about him.

"Ye Daoyou and Zai Xia, what do you mean?" After half a sound, Wei Qing asked.

Ye Lu sighed again and said, "Ye Mou saw that Your Excellency's combat power was amazing, far surpassing the powerhouses of the same level, so I wanted to ask Daoist friends for a favor!"

"Oh!" Wei Qing was a little surprised.

"As long as Your Excellency helps you defend Xinye Castle, you can use three jade dragon balls as a thank you. Ye Lu gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice.

Wei Qing's pupils shrank, he knew the Jade Dragon Ball, and it was still a product of the royal family of the Divine Dynasty.

It is sealed with a Purple Dragon of Luck, and the royal family will only make a small part of it every year and reward it to the officials of the Divine Dynasty.

Each jade dragon ball can allow a monk in the Yuan Infant Stage to improve a small realm, of course, this needs to be kept up with spiritual cultivation.

"That's a big deal. Wei Qing was slightly surprised in his heart, and besides, he couldn't refuse this kind of deal.

"I can't stay in Shinno Castle forever. But he shook his head and said.

"Ten years, it only takes ten years, and that's one of the conditions I agreed with my father. Ye Lu hurriedly said, "Moreover, you can give a jade dragon ball as a deposit first, another one after five years, and the last one after ten years." ”

Wei Qing smiled bitterly, he couldn't refuse such a condition.

After thinking for a while, he nodded, and said, "Deal!" I will do everything I can to help you keep Xinye City for ten years. However, there is a premise for this, I will not participate in the battle of the powerhouses of the Transformation Period. ”

At present, judging from the battle that took place in Xinye City, there is no sign of the participation of the powerhouses of the Transformation Period, which makes him have some confidence in defending the city.
