Chapter 194: Inside and Outside the City
Thousands of golden thunders hung like the sea, and the sword qi swam in the sky.
Sitting in a black shirt between heaven and earth, his expression remained unchanged, hugging the girl in his arms, the wisps of raw words wrapped Pei Lingsu, and then Ning Yi slowly stood up.
He whispered, "Wait for me for a moment." β
The big sleeves fluttered, the black shirt rose and fell, Ning Yi flicked his fingers lightly, and the shallow sword qi in the sleeve robe swept out like a swimming fish, rising in the wind, turning into a thick dragon, facing the thunder tribulation.
The fine snow and the childlike look pale and hard in the light of the thunder.
Ning Yi raised his left and right hands, and the two long swords swept back in an instant, the fine snow was trampled under his feet, and the child was held in the palm of his hand, and one person and one sword rose to the sky.
Fight the Apocalypse.
......
......
"The prince promised me...... Let Ning Yi survive. β
At the head of the northern city, the iron horses roared and the dust was flying.
Everyone saw the rapidly expanding realm of Tianhai Tower, and also saw the unbreakable cage at the border.
And the boiling golden thunder sea.
Xu Qingyan's expression was gloomy, and through a veil of hoods, she stared at the red-robed man in front of her, Zhu Hou, the former lord of Yingtianfu, was as thin as a flickering candle flame at the moment, standing in the wind, his red shirt fluttering.
Zhu Hou's voice was also like a flame floating in the wind.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince only promised you...... Willing to send the holy mountain, and the power of the Red River. Zhu Hou's face was like a ball of snow, and he explained softly and patiently: "There is no one in this world who can guarantee the life and death of another person...... Even the crown prince couldn't do it. Miss Xu, you have to know that Tiandu has paid a great price. β
Xu Qingyan fell silent.
"If it weren't for the actions of Jiuquanzi and Su Musha, the two Nirvana, Ning Yi would have died in the Xiaoyan Mountain Realm. Zhu Hou looked at Xu Qingyan, his gaze did not linger on this woman for long, but looked at the spectacular thunder tribulation behind him, and sighed softly: "And such a vast heavenly tribulation, how can manpower stop it?"
It's like the heavy rain at the Aoyama Mansion.
Those who go against the sky will have a calamity against the sky.
Zhu Hou said softly: "Even if Nirvana makes a move, it won't be able to save him...... In cause and effect, there is an ending, so why bother?"
There was a brief silence.
Xu Qingyan just said four words categorically.
"I want him to live. β
Zhu Hou sighed and said, "At most, the prince can only help you break the prohibition of Tianhai Tower...... Before leaving, the prince entrusted me, but if you have what you want, then you must agree, but the prince can't do this, and I can't accept it. β
"Shatter the forbidden ...... of Tianhai Tower"
Xu Qingyan laughed a little mockingly: "Is this helping me? The prince doesn't treat the Northern Iron Cavalry as a human life, and he doesn't want to hold the Great Wall in the palm of his hand?"
Zhu Hou didn't pick up the ridicule of this sentence, but just looked at the hooded woman with a smile.
Xu Qingyan said calmly: "Those two Nirvanas in Tiandu ...... There is no intention to face the White Emperor at all, Shen Yuanjun is the Shen Yuanjun of the General's Mansion, and the Iron Cavalry is the Iron Cavalry of the North, but the prince only wants the North, not the General's Mansion. β
Zhu Hou still only smiled and did not answer.
Xu Qingyan sneered.
She stopped talking, but silently clenched her fists and rested them on the wall.
The bridge is getting closer and closer.
She could even feel Ning Yi's emotions.
Anger, sadness, pain...... She didn't know what was happening in the Gray Land Realm, and she couldn't see what kind of scene was in the Thunder Sea in the distance, she only hoped that Ning Yi could return safely.
Close your eyes.
Clear your mind.
Xu Qingyan took a deep breath and said, "Since the prince can't help me, then please go back, when the dust settles, I will naturally return to Tiandu and do everything I have to do." β
Zhu Hou smiled and did not speak.
There was a wind blowing through the city, blowing the red shirts and swaying.
Zhu Hou narrowed his eyes, he stood beside Xu Qingyan, did not leave, nor did he rush to speak, but cast his eyes on Tianhai Tower from afar, looking at the brilliant golden thunder sea, the black shirt held a sword to face the thunder tribulation, and countless soft vitality was wrapped in a lonely purple-clothed figure, and the qi of that figure had dried up...... It looks like a flower that will wither at any moment.
Zhu Hou was silent for a moment, and said meaningfully: "This thing can't be done...... But there are always other things that the prince can do. β
"Since you don't want to see me...... Then I'll leave first. He looked at Xu Qingyan and said softly: "I hope Ning Yi can come back alive, presumably at that time, you will still need the prince." β
Zhu Hou stretched out a hand and gently put it on the head of the city, and when he turned to leave, a token was gently pressed on the head of the city wall by him.
It was a long order inlaid with a snow-white scale dragon.
White Dragon Order.
Xu Qingyan's expression was complicated, she stared at the token, and finally accepted it.
......
......
"It's been a long time since I've seen such a grand thunderstorm. β
In the realm of Tianhailou, outside of the thunder tribulation, almost no living beings dared to approach.
But there are only two exceptions.
Jiuquanzi carried the huge wine jug on his back, and after the battle with the Futu Demon Saint, he was not in a hurry to restrain this magic weapon, but still maintained this huge posture, and continued to absorb the starlight around him, the black and white turbidity flowed in the mouth of the wine jug, and the inner cave turned like a waterfall.
Su Musha looked at the golden thunder sea and sighed with emotion, "Ning Yi is a very good little guy. β
Jiuquanzi looked at Su Musha, and he laughed softly: "Yes...... He is very good, in my time, there was no such young man who dared to compete with the way of heaven. β
"There is no end to the cultivation of the whole road, but the life span will come to an end. Jiuquanzi muttered softly: "Everyone cultivates for the sake of 'immortality', but a 'mediocre person' like me has gone wrong from the beginning. What I want to take is a road against the sky, where can I follow the will of heaven everywhere? In the end, I will fail in the end, and I will not even see a glimmer of hope. β
Su Musha looked at the old ancestor of the academy with a strange expression.
A nobody?
Jiuquanzi's predecessors said that they were mediocre...... So who else in this world deserves to be "amazing"?
"His senior brother is Xu Zang, bar......" Jiuquanzi was suddenly in a trance, although he slept in the Red River, but he was not ignorant of what was happening in the outside world, that amazing genius sword cultivator once attracted the attention of this old ancestor.
Jiuquanzi muttered: "It's in the same vein, no wonder it's so...... Xu Zang was a very amazing young man, but unfortunately he died too early. β
Su Mu's lips moved.
This old ancestor, at the time of the coup d'Γ©tat in Tiandu, happened to fall into a deep sleep, so he didn't know it...... After Xu hid in Shushan, he woke up again, and stabbed out the sword that amazed the world.
"Your Majesty has done a lot of wrong things, and he has killed a lot of amazing juniors by mistake. Jiuquanzi looked at Su Musha, and after seeing the latter's stunned expression, he explained with a smile: "What I said is not what you think...... When His Majesty was young, he was a little outrageously strong, and he was at his peak for too long, and everyone who had seen His Majesty ended up without exception and couldn't go far. β
Su Musha was a little stunned.
She understood what Jiuquanzi meant.
"A long time ago, His Majesty came to Hongfu River once and talked to me about 'Xu Zang'. Jiuquanzi said softly: "Your Majesty said that he admires Xu Zang very much, and he really hopes to see this sword cultivator complete...... Therefore, Tiandu gave Xu Zang a lot of 'care', but His Majesty did not show these meanings in public, he thought that Xu Zang was a malleable talent, a figure worthy of the Great Sui's time and energy to cultivate. β
"And such a person needs the heavens to provide him with 'creation', adversary, creation, Taoism, or hatred......" When he said this, Jiuquanzi looked at Su Musha, although his face was "young" and not old, but his eyes were like a sea that had lived for thousands of years, and he had any emotions.
Su Musha's expression was a little confused.
Then her lips were a little dry.
"In this world...... If there is a person who can achieve the invincible realm by himself like His Majesty, and then hold all the power of the Great Sui, then he will definitely be very lonely. Jiuquanzi lowered his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I am eager for my opponent, and I am also eager for failure." So after that incident, he personally shaped an environment to allow Xu Zang to 'grow'...... It sounds incredible, but Your Majesty can do it. β
Jiuquanzi's words completely shattered Su Musha's cognition.
She simply couldn't believe it.
Xu Zang's growth ...... It turned out to be Taizong behind the scenes, for what?
In order to cultivate a strong enough sword cultivator, stab yourself?
Is the reason for all this just because of loneliness?
Jiuquanzi is just a calm elaboration, without any personal emotions.
"I don't know why Your Majesty did this...... But I know that's what Your Majesty did. β
There was a pause.
"It's like the original 'bloody night'. β
Four words.
Su Musha's expression was grim.
Jiuquanzi said slowly: "You should know the real reason for the 'Heavenly Capital Blood Night'...... His Majesty can't tolerate Pei Min. β
Su Musha opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.
She didn't know how to open her mouth at all, in the Heavenly Capital Imperial City, the old thing more than ten years ago was a taboo thing, and it had never been allowed to be discussed...... As the dean of the White Deer Cave Academy, Su Musha was even more silent and would never mention it.
In fact, about the truth...... The world knows very little.
Jiuquanzi looked at Su Musha, and he said lightly: "Pei Min wants to go to the north alone to attack and kill the White Emperor." β
"If this happens...... Then the consequence of the matter is very likely to be the direct fall of the White Emperor, and in the worst case, the White Emperor City Lord is seriously injured, and the Eastern Demon Domain is in a slump. β
"But the facts ...... Not really. β
Jiuquanzi frowned, and said with some contemplation, "Blood feud, personal grudge, or ...... I can't guess Your Majesty, and I don't know what he's doing it for, but Your Majesty has always been an inscrutable man. β
