What Tang Ning could see was the sky gradually covered with black, countless stars struggling to jump out of the cage-like night, and under the dim moonlight, everything in the world was dyed with a ghostly fluorescence.

Tang Ning just stood outside and looked up at the sky, even in the countryside town before, he had never seen such a clear sky, let alone a night full of stars, "Xiao An, this task looks difficult, what will happen if it can't be completed." He raised his right hand, as if to touch the stars in the sky lightly.

"The host will be disqualified, have their memories erased, leave here forever, be disqualified as an anomaly, and become a normal person again." Xiao An returned to his original indifferent voice, he looked at Tang Ning coldly like an outsider.

"Ah...," Tang Ning sighed slowly, "That's the case, mercilessly, although I don't mind becoming an ordinary person, but I don't want to be the last one at all." In Tang Ning's mind, he recalled that scene, his father left without saying a word, Sui Jingyu with contemptuous words, the hostility of others, Lin Chuchu's behavior of refusal, so strange, so alienated, so disgusting, and of course, that little ghost... Tang Ning, thinking of Ye Liuhua's seemingly cold gaze.

"What about Xiao An? If I, as the master, leave, what will happen to Xiao An? Tang Ning's gaze was soft, and his pale yellow pupils were flowing with a different brilliance, beautiful, like a gentle reality.

"Ugh!" Xiao An was a little surprised, he thought that this guy was useless to jump out, but now it seems that there is something meritorious, especially his eyes.

As a system, he was born with the mission of exercising his master's ability, so he has a complete system to detect the fluctuations of his master's energy, but Tang Ning's eyes have obviously shown signs of being an ability, which is a reaction that will only be shown when the ability is activated, but Tang Ning obviously does not have a trace of energy fluctuations, "I don't know, because there has not been a failed host until now, if it fails, maybe... It will be destroyed. ”

Although it was very casual, Tang Ning could also hear a trace of sadness from Xiao An's words. Even if it's a cold object, you still have the desire to live! Everyone has desires! Yes... He also has desires.

"There's no way around it, I can just keep trying. I want you not to tell me anything, but... If there is no way to touch a living thing, then how can you succeed in taking it? "It's that he just had this problem, how can something like air interfere with human behavior... It's not smog.

"Conventions are conventions, they are the conventions of creation, and you can't make decisions without asking the host. As for the way... It's an ability, and only the host's ability can have an effect on the system world. Using the host's abilities to accomplish one's own tasks is also an exercise. ”

Can't you make your own decisions... Do you use your abilities to complete tasks? Huh... And what's my ability... Tang Ning was stunned all of a sudden, saying that he had passed so long, and he didn't know what his abilities were until now.

"Xiao An, I have unfortunate news for you, your master and I still don't know what my abilities are." Tang Ning touched his eyes a little lost, he couldn't even sense when his ability would awaken, he couldn't control himself.

To be honest, Xiao An was surprised at the moment, for so many years in the Anselrest database, no student had ever encountered such a situation, after awakening the alien pupil, he didn't know how to use his ability, because...

"Soul stream, isn't there a soul stream when the host awakens?" Yes, when every supernatural awakens, there will be a voice of the world in their soul to tell them, to tell them everything, and after each level of ability awakens, there will be a voice in the soul like this. Some are memories, some are methods, some are unknown spells, some are just words, but the Adepts can clearly understand the meaning, and that is because it is their own.

"Huh? Soul streams? What's that? Downing was genuinely surprised at the moment. When he woke up, it was exactly the same as when he didn't, and he didn't feel anything at all.

"Didn't you?" How is it possible, there is no way to reach the other side without the reminder of the soul stream, so how did he awaken the ability, "Then what is your opportunity, what do you see?" What did you hear or think about that that ability you awakened? "This situation is too tricky.

Belch... Speaking of awakening abilities, "Speaking of which, I don't seem to have really experienced the process of ability awakening, the elders in the family said that I awakened very early, and sealed my ability when I was very young, and then they unsealed it, and I naturally had the ability." "Oh, that's... Tang Ning suddenly remembered that when his father helped him lift the seal that day, he had some vague pictures and information in his mind for some reason, and his expression was a little dazed at that time, like a dream, and it didn't take long for him to fall asleep and not care about these things. But now I can't remember what I want to think about, what is it?

"Was it sealed by the elders?" How is it possible, in Xiao An's opinion, Tang Ning is really weak, but if he has awakened his ability at a very young age, then Tang Ning can't be so weak at all, his ability level should be very strong, especially if his family seals his ability, this is even more strange, forcibly sealing and awakening early are very hurtful behaviors, although it is not said that the sooner the ability is awakened, the better, but this is the awakening ability at such a young age, but he did not die because he couldn't bear it. "Did the host encounter anything strange in his daily life?"

Tang Ning lowered his head and thought for a while, but then shook his head and said to Xiao An, "There doesn't seem to be anything strange, except that the eyes are always inexplicably discolored."

There is no situation like Tang Ning in the materials for so many years, maybe he is a special person, Xiao An thought like this, "Host, you may be a special existence, a special person. ”

Being comforted by Xiao An like this, Tang Ning nodded a little embarrassedly, he felt like a waste of wood when he said it, especially after entering this weird school, but it inexplicably aroused his competitiveness that he hadn't had for a long time.

In the process of chatting between Tang Ning and Xiao Ao, you unconsciously returned to the main street of the sand capital, and the appearance of the lights made Tang Ning return to reality in a trance, in fact, it is the same everywhere, the outside is like this, the inside is also like this, the outside is a person, and the inside is also a person.

Like a homeless stray dog, a lost dog. Everyone passed by him, everyone didn't stop, everyone had their own goals, nothing else.

"No... Don't think about it. Xiao An really couldn't bear to talk too much.

"Well, I'm not that fragile, let's sleep." The pale yellow pupils flowed with a different brilliance, gradually becoming deeper and shallower, and in an instant, the depth seemed to contain all things in the world, the stars and the sea.

He closed his eyes, as if the world had fallen asleep as well as he did.

———————————————————————————— the second day

Downing had fallen asleep on the roof of the tallest building in the city last night, and no one dared to experience this as a soul anyway, and she didn't need to sleep, but as a human being, he always wanted to sleep.

When the sun rose over the horizon, the first rays of morning light shone on Downing's face, and Downing could feel the temperature of the light, the warmth that shone directly on his soul.

"Ahh It's so comfortable! It seems to be nice to sleep like this every day until you wake up naturally... Huh! That is. "Just got up, Downing stretched out to the sun, and when his body was fully stretched, he would see... Well, isn't that Yao Ji?

Still wearing the clothes of yesterday, it is no wonder that Tang Ning could see her at first sight, dressed so different from the people here, she slowly walked into the building at Tang Ning's feet, and the leader just asked a little and let her in, looking like someone she knew.

But this is not a good place to go, this is a place to find flowers and ask willows, although Yao Ji is not a legitimate profession, but yesterday she was still a kabuki, do you want to change careers to be ** today? Damn, she's got kids.

Although the family is indeed so poor that it seems that they can't open the pot,... Although he seems to have raised a youkai, son.

With a faint sense of uneasiness and indescribable complexity, Tang Ning quietly followed Yao Ji.

Yao Ji seems to be very familiar with every grass and tree here, there is no one to help her guide the way, she can still walk freely here, Tang Ning followed Yao Ji to wander here, by the way, remember the crooked road here, in other words, the ancient buildings are really beautiful.

The scenery along the way is very beautiful, and the people who want to build this garden know how to enjoy the visual beauty, but now is not the time to dwell on this, Yao Ji has been unimpeded all the way without stopping, even if she occasionally meets some maids and slaves, she will pass by her as if she didn't see her, and Tang Ning will follow Yao Ji all the way to the depths of this courtyard.

As the road gets farther and farther, the plants here become denser and taller, and they seem to be more and more secluded, and it seems that there is something hidden here.

But then it wasn't some ordinary maids and minions, but guards in strong suits, and finally a pair of guards stopped Yaoji.

"Who's coming?" These two guards blocked Yao Ji's way, and they were tall, so they blocked Yao Ji tightly.

Yao Ji was not in a hurry, and took out a jade pendant from her arms and showed it to the two guards, "Can you go in now?" ”

One of the guards took Yao Ji's jade pendant and took it in his hand and looked at it, he was immediately taken aback, and his tone became respectful, "It turned out to be the Wind Flower Envoy, we were rude, please come in." They hurriedly retreated, returned the jade pendant to Yao Ji, and made a way out.

Yao Ji took back the jade pendant and didn't look at it, the two guards glanced at it, it was almost over, and went to the courtyard. Tang Ning inadvertently looked up at the plaque in front of the courtyard, the dragon flew and the phoenix danced, and only four big characters were written: Fengyue leaning on the building.

Yao Ji used that jade pendant I don't know how many times I beheaded the official, and finally got closer and closer to the main courtyard in the center, but he was soon stopped again, "Wind Flower Envoy, Yao Ji, no, you are no longer from Fengyue Tower, you should also take back this jade pendant." The landlord has something to do now, and it's inconvenient to see you, so you might as well leave quickly. "The new little brother is dressed in black, his face is quite handsome, but his expression is a little more serious, his tone is a little heavier, and the rest is perfect.

"Jianwu, I must see the Lord today, this matter is urgent, don't stop me." Yao Ji looked at the sword warrior standing in front of her, almost biting a mouthful of silver teeth, indescribable impassioned indignation.

There seems to be something to do with each other, seeing Yao Ji's excited appearance, Tang Ning is a little worried, he won't fight.

"Yaoji, since that day you betrayed the Lord, you have lost your qualifications as a Fenghua Envoy, it is the Lord who is gracious and spares your life, but he has also expelled you from Fengyue Tower, what are you still dissatisfied with, you want to come back to seek death." Jian Wu stopped Yao Ji and refused to take a step, both of them were stubborn masters, and the atmosphere was tense for a while.

Yao Ji knew that the sword warrior in front of him was a well-known stubborn and ruthless person in the building, almost unkind, and only recognized death, and what the landlord said was in his ears, and he was also quite favored by the landlord.

There are seven departments downstairs in Fengyue, which are Fenghua Xueyue Poetry and Wine Sword, each department is unrelated to each other and has its own responsibilities. Yao Ji, as the wind flower envoy, belongs to the wind department and the flower department at the same time, and her identity in the building is very unusual, usually serving by the side of the building owner, and usually has some simple assassination missions. As for the sword department, all the bloody tasks are generally undertaken by them.

You said that the two have nothing to do with each other, and there should not be a big contradiction, but it just so happens that Jian Wu is the personal guard of the landlord, and Fenghua is the personal maid of the landlord, and Jian Yi Jian II is different, they all belong to the guards in the bright place, and there will inevitably be some friction and disputes.

Fenghua makes as a maid gentle and dexterous, very favored in front of the landlord, and although the sword is loyal and resolute, but taciturn, not good at words, even if the landlord knows that he is loyal, but he doesn't care much, one and two, it is inevitable that there is some grievances, especially Yao Ji as a wind flower will be very favored because of Yao Ji's beauty, she is also eccentric and always likes to play Jian Wu in front of the landlord, if this is the case, but the problem is that Yao Ji betrayed the landlord later, and the grievances between the two were concluded, Although it is still based on the relationship between them in the past, it is no different from the enemy.

"Yao Ji! You don't toast, you don't eat and drink. Jian Wu drew half of the sword and already had the idea of fighting Yao Ji, obviously angry.

"Sword Warrior! It's you who has a problem.,I just left with the person I liked.,This matter was also discussed with the landlord.,It's the landlord who personally agreed.,Although he betrayed me later.,But it doesn't mean that I betrayed Fengyue Lou.,You're so tense.,Can I think you're a thief? Yao Ji was obviously not to be outdone, and continued to scare back, "Now I'm just coming back to discuss something with the landlord, and you're so unforgiving!" ”

"You!" Jian Wu was very angry by Yao Ji, "You have lost your qualification as a wind flower envoy, there is no place for you here!" Saying that, Jian Wu finally pulled out the sword in his hand and slashed it in front of Yao Ji, as if he wanted to distinguish the line with Yao Ji.

"I'll repeat it, it's inconvenient for the landlord to see you, so hurry up." After saying this, he didn't care about Yao Ji's reaction, and took you back as soon as he turned around

But how could Yao Ji let him go so easily, maybe because he knew that it didn't make sense, Yao Ji planned to move directly, because he was standing in a high position, Tang Ning could easily see Yao Ji's movements from this angle, what he saw was Yao Ji's original brown pupils suddenly dark green beast pupils, and her teeth also became sharp, as long as the exposed canine teeth exposed this well, she attacked Jian Wu at a speed that normal humans did not have, but Jian Wu was obviously not surprised by this, and his unhurried backhand was a knife. The knife slashed at Yaoji's position as if it had eyes.

While Tang Ning was secretly surprised by the setting that Yao Ji was not a human, he was amazed by Jian Wu's sword. It's so handsome!

At this time, Yaoji's animalization was even more serious, she had grown a fluffy cat tail and light yellow cat ears, and even her voice was like a cat, and she didn't know how much human sanity she had left.

"You can't beat me if you don't do it yourself, even if you become a beast." Kenwu's voice was contemptuous, and he swung his sword into the void with no fear.

"Meow~" Yao Ji stared at Jian Wu tightly with a pair of beast eyes, and licked her tail very animally. I don't know if it's an answer to the contempt of the sword warrior.

Yao Ji is not in a hurry to fight with the sword warrior, probably because she knows that she can't do the sword warrior by force alone. It's just like patrolling around the sword warriors.

Jian Wu ignored her and walked on his own, obviously very confident in himself.

But there are exceptions to everything, and Downing's sixth feeling is today's... Yao Ji will achieve her goal.

said that it was too late and that it was fast, as if Yao Ji had found the weakness of the sword warrior, she suddenly stretched out her claws, and she couldn't see Yao Ji's figure clearly for a moment, and she exerted the almost full speed of the cat demon to the extreme.

But it was useless, Jian Wu chuckled and said, "Your realm is not as good as mine, so... My consciousness is strong enough to lock on to your position, and you still can't break through. He stood in place and made a slight pick at the end, blocking Yao Ji from the knife, and he couldn't hurt him for half a point

Yao Ji blocked it with her claws, but she was also thrown to the ground, but fortunately the cat's body was soft and agile, and Yao Ji was slightly injured. But although she was defeated, the corners of Yaoji's mouth hooked up a little, "Meow~" She called softly. Then he suddenly jumped up from the ground again and ran in the opposite direction to Kenwu.

"Oops!" It turned out that Yao Ji didn't expect to be able to break through the encirclement of Jian Wu just now, she just wanted to change directions with Jian Wu, and if it was just about speed, Jian Wu would not be her opponent.

So it was very smooth for Yaoji to pick up this bargain.
