Chapter 17 The front line is coming, but the prince is coming

In the evening, the Summoning Canyon became darker and darker the closer it got to the front line, and only the sparse beams of light that passed through the foliage occasionally shone brightly.

When Xiao Tianqi held the front foot of the Heavenly Absolute hostage, Xiao Fan, the deputy commander of the back foot, gave the order for the army to march towards the summoning canyon.

At this time, nearly three hours had passed since the departure of the army of the Inner Defense Pavilion, and according to the itinerary of the army, it was almost to the front line of the summoning canyon.

Sure enough, not long after, not far from the front line of the summoning canyon, the sound of footsteps and horses' hooves sounded in the deep and dim canyon.

Then there was another hurried sound of horses' hooves, and then I saw the guards who had been sent out earlier to explore the way turn back to report to Xiao Fanyu:

"Report to the deputy commander, the army will arrive at the front line of the summoning canyon in half an hour!"

"Okay, I got it. Go on!" and then he ordered, "Give me orders!" Now that it is almost dark and marching in the woods, the battalions will prepare their torches in advance and continue on their way. ”

"Yes!"

......

After watching the guards take the order to leave, Xiao Fan was also a little relieved.

Since Tianjue was held hostage, Xiaofan was temporarily appointed to act as an agent for all military affairs, and since then, the pressure in his heart has been like a big iron ball, and he is about to be overwhelmed.

This is not only the pressure given by the safety of the Heavenly Absolute Pavilion, but also the pressure of whether the entire army of the Inner Defense Pavilion can successfully reach the front line of the Summoning Canyon.

Therefore, when he heard the guards report that "there is still half an hour to go to the front line of the summoning canyon", Xiao Fan's pressure on the way has plummeted a lot, and now he only hopes that Xiao Tianqi will be able to release his own commander according to the previous agreement.

In front of the army of the Inner Defense Pavilion, it was the Xiao Tianqi who held the Heavenly Absolute hostage, and behind him was the Fog Ink Spirit who was carrying a marching bag, and the baby was hidden in this marching bag.

Since leaving the camp, Xiao Tianqi had long sensed that the army of the Inner Defense Pavilion was following behind, and in order not to show their feet, the three of them only cared about muffled voices except for occasional thirst and water.

Due to the fact that he led the troops to fight with the Spirit Realm before, Xiao Tianqi was extremely familiar with the route of the Summoning Canyon, and naturally knew that he was now almost at the front line of the Summoning Canyon.

......

Half an hour quickly slipped away quietly in the march of the Inner Defense Pavilion army, and in the pitch-black front line of the summoning canyon, the torch in the hands of the Inner Defense Pavilion army marching in the forest was like a fire dragon, which was extremely conspicuous.

When the guards who were in charge of reconnoitring the way forward turned back again and told Xiao Fan that the army had arrived at the front line of the Summoning Canyon, the nervous guards of the Inner Defense Pavilion on the way all breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts at this moment.

Then they set their hopes on the apocalypse that was still holding the heavens hostage.

Under the light of the fire that was moving up and down the torches, Xiao Tianqi's expression at the moment looked a little weird, and the fire in his eyes kept beating at this moment, making it even more difficult for everyone in the Inner Defense Pavilion to think about his innermost thoughts at this moment.

After feeling the gaze of everyone in the Inner Defense Pavilion towards him, Xiao Tianqi fell into contemplation for a while.

After Xiao Fan opposite him hesitated for a moment, he finally said to Xiao Tianqi respectfully:

"Your Highness, we have now arrived at the front line of the Summoning Canyon. You should know that the next step is to walk straight ahead to reach the Fantasy Center. Now that we have made you and your family to the front line of the Summoning Canyon as agreed, the last general has sworn in the name of the deputy commander of the internal defense cabinet that we will guarantee the safe departure of you and your family. At this point, I would like to ask Your Highness to release our Grand Commander in accordance with the previous agreement. ”

Xiao Tianqi was originally forced by the situation to pretend to hold Tianjue hostage, and he has been suffering in his heart along the way. At this time, after listening to Xiaofan's sincere assurance, he just gave him a step down the trend.

I saw that Xiao Tianqi didn't want to let go of the palm that he had been holding against the back of Tianjue, and then unlocked the sealed meridians for Tianjue, and then said with relief:

"There is a reason for the incident, Xiao Tianqi is here to make amends to you!"

After Xiao Tianqi and Fog Ink Spirit bowed down to the people of the Inner Defense Pavilion together to apologize, they resolutely turned around and left towards the Fantasy Center.

The guards of the Inner Defense Pavilion looked at the two people who had left hand in hand from their side, and immediately turned their inquiring eyes to Tianjue, who had just regained his freedom.

However, Tianjue, who had just regained his freedom, did not express anything other than the bitterness on his face.

After Xiao Tianqi and Wu Mo Ling had already walked away, Tianjue had the heart to command Xiao Fan beside him:

"Deputy Commander Xiao, I ordered the army to set up camp here tonight first, and hand over the defense line early tomorrow morning. ”

"The last general obeys!"

......

With Xiaofan's order, the army then began to choose a place to set up camp.

At this time, Tianjue glanced at Xiao Fan, who was still standing beside him, and knew in his heart that he wanted to get the truth about the kidnapping from himself.

After a moment of silence, Tianjue motioned for Xiao Fan to come with him, and he himself walked towards a corner away from the barracks.

"If you have any questions, just ask. After confirming that there was no one around, Tianjue said.

"I beg your pardon for the foolishness of the Admiral, why did the Grand Commander do this?"

Xiao Fan bluntly asked about the incomprehension in his heart, and there was a hint of incomprehension and anger in his words.

After listening to this, Tianjue did not directly answer Xiaofan's question, but said in a self-questioning tone:

"What kind of person is Ben Shuai......

Xiao Fan wasn't sure if Tian Jue was asking himself what he had just said, but he still chose to answer without hesitation.

"In the heart of the last general, the commander is a man of responsibility and affection. ”

"Heh......"

Xiao Fan didn't see Tianjue's expression at this time, but he heard the self-deprecation in his laughter.

"Do you know that it was such a 'responsible, affectionate and righteous temperamental' in your mouth that almost put his benefactor's family in a situation of no return for the sake of his own future. ”

After Tianjue finished speaking with remorse, he turned around and looked directly at Xiaofan in front of him, and asked him word by word:

"What would you do if it were you?"

Xiao Fan knew the reason why Tianjue asked him like this, but he replied without the slightest hesitation:

"The last general has always been the one you saved from the brink of life and death! if it were the last general, the Grand Commander would know my answer......

"Haha!"

After laughing bitterly in his heart, Tianjue continued:

"The expected answer! After Ben Shuai leaves the Inner Defense Pavilion, you must lead the Internal Defense Pavilion!"

As smart as a fan, he quickly thought that what Tian Jue had just said was very likely to entrust him with the Inner Defense Pavilion.

So he immediately said in a panic:

"Great Commander, don't do it! The last general is only a shallow learner, and he only wants to follow the Great Commander in this life!"

After Xiaofan finished speaking, he knelt down in front of Tianjue with a "poof".

Tianjue looked at the beloved general kneeling in front of him, and for a while he had all kinds of emotions in his heart.

However, just as he was feeling sad, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves not far from the camp.

"Click...... Click...... Click!"

......

"Hurry up and get out of the way for His Highness!"

Before the sound of horses' hooves came, the majestic voice of the comer sounded in the night.

Obviously, the scolding of the people who came was mixed with skill, which is why his scolding still echoed around the camp after he finished speaking.

Tianjue and Xiaofan, who were far away from the camp, naturally heard the scolding of the comer.

I saw that Tianjue and Xiaofan glanced at each other, and immediately rushed in the direction where the scolding came.

But before the two of them arrived at the location of the Chinese military tent, they heard the angry voice and began to scold again.

"Who can tell His Highness that the heavens are peerless? As the commander of the army, he is not in the Chinese army's tent, what kind of system is it!"

Tianjue and Xiaofan are not ordinary people after all, although they are far away, they have locked their eyes on the person standing in front of the Chinese military tent.

It's just that the person who just spoke out was really good, Tianjue and Xiaofan hadn't yet gained a firm foothold, but he came to the two of them first.

Seeing this, Tianjue and Xiaofan were both shocked in their hearts, and then they felt a fluster.

"Wechen see His Royal Highness the Prince!"

"The last general will see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

......

Tianjue and Xiaofan knelt down one after another and saluted. Seeing this, all the guards of the Inner Defense Pavilion immediately knelt down and saluted together.

The person who came was Xiao Tianci, the prince of the Divine Domain, who had just left the court a few days ago and rushed here.

What was next unexpected was that Xiao Tianci, who had reprimanded loudly before, did not continue to reprimand after seeing Tianjue, but forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said to Tianjue:

"The Grand Commander will come down with His Highness!"

Looking at Xiao Tianci, who walked into the tent of the Chinese army, Tianjue was stunned for a moment and got up and followed.

Seeing this, Xiao Fan, who was still in place, immediately ordered:

"Continue to camp, remember to step up patrols tonight!"

......

In the tent of the Chinese military camp, as soon as Xiao Tianci entered the account, he couldn't bear to ask the heavenly absolute in front of him:

"Look at the good deeds you have done! In the case of the Great Fire of the Divine Doctor Pavilion, His Highness knows that the blame is not on you, so he can not blame him in the past. But now that you are not even willing to let go of His Royal Highness's royal brother's family, how can His Highness still tolerate you? When did Tianjue, who has always valued love and righteousness, become an ungrateful villain!"

After hearing this, Tianjue knelt on the ground with a "poof", and replied very sadly:

"Your Highness, you have scolded well! I am an ungrateful villain, please punish me severely!"

Xiao Tianci glared at Tianjue angrily and said angrily:

"Is it still useful to punish you now? Father Emperor has already rushed here with his personal guards day and night! If His Royal Highness hadn't retreated and rushed here directly, I'm afraid that what you are waiting for at this moment is Father Emperor! Now fortunately, His Royal Highness arrived one step early, and before his father arrived, he quickly took His Highness to meet the imperial brother and them!"

After listening to Xiao Tianci's words, Tianjue, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but think of the rumors in the past that "the current prince harbored the waste prince", and now he knew that the rumors were true.
