Chapter 22: The Big Exam
Seventy-two cities.
It was a tall valley, and a man dressed in black was sitting on a stone block by the stream, staring slightly at the clear water.
A resolute and tough face is reflected on the water surface, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, although he is not very young, he has the taste of an uncle who has vicissitudes.
This person is the Emperor Rakshasa, who came here quietly last night. Obviously, what to do next is extremely important to the Demon Realm Supreme.
The sun was just after noon, and suddenly a few bird cries sounded not far away, and the Emperor Rakshasa raised his head, the corners of his mouth twitched, and here it is!
It was only a dozen breaths before a figure walked out of the forest, and this person was stunned when he saw the Emperor Rakshasa, and then made a vigilant move, and it was Qi Tianhe.
Qi Tianhe obviously didn't expect the Emperor Rakshasa to be here, so he spoke coldly.
"This is not your Demon Realm, why are you here?"
At this time, the Emperor Rakshasa had covered his face with his black hat again, and he smiled, and asked with some expression, "Why can't I be here?
Qi Tianhe sneered, "Ha! Say, what do you want to do here?"
Emperor Rakshasa smacked his lips, "I came here today to tell you a joke." ”
"Oh?
"Long Xingyu didn't go to the Necromantic Abyss to guard it, but there was something under the Necromantic Abyss, and Long Xingyu went to the Necromantic Abyss for it. Tsk, are you funny?"
Qi Tianhe didn't look at the man in black in front of him, just glanced around, and then shook his head, "To be honest, I don't know what you're talking about, and I don't think this story is funny?"
Emperor Rakshasa waved his hand indifferently, and said in a rather meaningful tone, "You'll understand later-"
The sunlight shone on Qi Tianhe's face through the gaps in the leaves, which made him can't help but hide the glare light with his hands.
Emperor Rakshasa had left silently, Qi Tianhe was still standing by the stream, he looked at the clear stream, and a trace of strangeness suddenly flashed in his heart.
Qi Tianhe squatted down and poured the stream water in his hand and poured it vigorously on his face. There was a sudden coldness on his face, but no matter how cold the water was, it seemed that he couldn't extinguish the inexplicable fire in his heart, some things were not what he thought, or rather, some things had begun to slowly change, becoming uncontrollable and unfathomable. But even so, the mountain still has to be up, and things still have to be notified.
And what he is about to visit is the first family in the hidden world, the Fang family.
……
Another place in the city of seventy-two.
Lin Zijie walked on a gravel road in tattered clothes, surrounded by endless wilderness, and occasionally a few unknown birds flew overhead.
Lin Zijie licked his dry lips, looking at the road in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little worried, he had been here for a day and a night, but he couldn't get out no matter how he walked, what the hell is this place? Why is it so weird?
Lin Zijie cursed as he walked, and suddenly a few special breaths caught his attention. So he dodged into the tall grass beside him, without making a sound.
"Senior brother, did you say that the master has arrived?"
"Needless to say, the old immortal must have been eating and drinking there a long time ago!"
"Senior brother, you scolded Master for being an old man who is immortal!"
"Tsk, you don't think you heard. ”
The three voices chattered from far and near, Lin Zijie squatted motionlessly, waiting for the moment those people walked in front of him, and instantly shot.
Before the person who walked at the end could react, he was choked by the neck by a slender but somewhat dirty palm.
"Stand still!" Lin Zijie's cold voice came into the ears of everyone present, without any emotion.
Everyone was startled and hurriedly turned around.
"What do you want to do?" said the person who spoke.
"Three questions. First, where is this? Second, where are you going? Third, what are you going to do?"
The senior brother calmly motioned to the people next to him not to move, and replied with a frown, "This place is close to the Heavenly Array Mansion, so we naturally want to go to the Heavenly Array Mansion to watch the assessment." ”
Lin Zijie was silent for a while, then slowly let go of the young junior brother's neck, and rushed into the wild grass with a dodge and disappeared.
"Senior brother, why didn't you make a move just now?" someone asked in a puzzled whisper.
Senior Brother shook his head, "The old immortal often warns us that we must keep an eye on the outside at all times, sometimes, it is better to have more than one thing than one less, besides, I don't think that person has any hostility towards us, it seems that he came in from the outside?"
Senior Brother lowered his head, groaning as he took a step, and everyone headed in the direction of the Heavenly Array Mansion.
……
The Seventh Dragon Gate.
Chu Tianze, Xue Zichen and a few people were standing in front of the door, watching waves of Praetorian Guards walk out of the halo gate.
There seemed to be a lot of people, and the wait was more than an hour, Qiu Shaowen was a little impatient, and kept yawning on the side.
After all the 5,000 people arrived, Chu Tianze came to the army.
"In order not to attract attention, the army of ten people in a team, disguised into the seventy-two cities to carry out tasks, as for how to find us, but remember, do not make a scene. ”
"Yes!"
"Let's go!"
The team of five thousand people gradually dispersed, and with just one cup of tea, there were only four Chu Tianze left in the empty clearing.
"Where are we going?" asked Han Mingxiu.
Before Chu Tianze could speak, Qiu Shaowen interjected, "Heavenly Array Mansion, there seems to be some assessment tomorrow, let's go and see." ”
Xue Zichen thought about it and nodded, "I think so too, the advanced assessment of the Heavenly Array Mansion Phantom Array Master is not a trivial matter for the Seventy-two City, I believe that when those people get the news tomorrow, they will definitely come to see it, after all, this is their first time in contact with this world." ”
Han Mingxiu added, "Curiosity kills cats." ”
Chu Tianze saw that they all agreed, so naturally he would not stop him, so several people walked towards the Heavenly Array Mansion, and on the way, they kept seeing people riding horses or using light skills, all of them rushed towards the direction of the Heavenly Array Mansion.
Chu Tianze looked at the backs of those people and smiled, "It seems that tomorrow's assessment should be very lively." ”
Qiu Shaowen nodded, then suddenly remembered something, and glanced at Xue Zichen with slanted eyes, "Xue Shaowen, I remember that you just said a few days ago that we will come back, right?
Xue Zichen lowered his head and was silent for a long time before he replied faintly, "I said that I would say it casually, do you believe it?"
But whether it is or not, I'm afraid only Xue Zichen himself knows.
Qiu Shaowen rolled his eyes speechlessly, "Only by believing in you are a ghost!"
