Chapter 080: The Book of Qi Guanwan
"Elder of the Five Elements, Jiu'er has lived in Gu'an City since she was born, and she doesn't know much about the outside, so I'm afraid you'll have to worry more about it in the future. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Ye Che said.
"Xiao Jiu is my apprentice, and the old man will take good care of her. It's just that...... I don't know what the relationship between the Demon Moon Palace Lord and my apprentice is? Zhang Wuxing looked left and right at Ye Che and Ruan Jiuwu, with a meaningful smile in his eyes.
"Master, I'll ...... with him" Ruan Jiuwu was about to explain, but was stopped by Ye Che first.
"She's a very important person to me." He said word for word.
Zhang Wuxing stroked his beard, revealing a look of understanding, and did not continue to ask.
"Elder of the Five Elements, there are other things in the palace, so I left first." Ye Che nodded to Zhang Wuxing expressionlessly, and then said to Ruan Jiuwu in a deep voice, "Remember what I said." ”
"You ......" Ruan Jiuwu stopped talking, turned to Zhang Wuxing and said, "Master, I'll go out to see him off and come back soon." ”
"Go ahead."
Ruan Jiuwu led Ye Che and Qingying out of the courtyard along the small door facing the street, and soon came to the bustling street.
After making sure that she was far enough away from the courtyard, she finally couldn't help but ask, "Ye Che, why did you treat me like that?" ”
"This palace is just telling Zhang Wuxing, even if you worship Hongdao, you will have the support of the Half Moon Palace behind you." Ye Che replied coldly.
“…… Why do you think so much about me? ”
"Oh?" Ye Che raised an eyebrow and glanced at her, "Have you forgotten the deal between us?" ”
"Of course, I didn't forget." She frowned and thought for a moment, then said softly, "I see what you mean." ”
Sure enough, it was the same as she had guessed.
Everything he did was to make it easier for her to find the sleep.
That's it, that's it.
The sky was now darker and darker, and the lead-gray clouds were blocking the sunlight so tightly that it seemed that a downpour would fall at any moment.
"I'm leaving." After hesitating, Ye Che still explained, "There is an urgent matter in the palace temporarily, so you have to leave early." ”
"Night...... The cooperation between you and me is just to take what we need, and there is no need to explain other irrelevant things to each other...... You can leave with confidence, and in the next month, I will definitely condense my true qi. ”
Ye Che was obviously stunned, and then a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, "That's very good." ”
A trace of cold qi overflowed from his body, and Ruan Jiuwu couldn't help but shiver.
Just as she was about to say goodbye to him, Ye Che suddenly stretched out her right hand and spread out her palm, revealing a finger-length silver lightning bolt.
"Whoa—"
Lightning swims happily in the palm of the hand, making a pleasant sound.
Isn't this a ritual weapon he often uses? What is he going to do? Ruan Jiuwu looked at Ye Che in confusion.
"If you're in danger, drop your blood into lightning." Ye Che said with a cold face.
Then, as soon as he raised his palm, lightning flashed as if he had heard a command, turning into a silver ribbon that wrapped around her hair.
"It's ......," she tried to remove the silver ribbon, but it didn't work.
"This artifact has recognized me as its master, and if anyone else wants to change its blood, I will be aware of it."
Ruan Jiuwu suddenly understood, it turned out that he was paving the way for her. In case she was in danger of her life, she could let him know in this way, and maybe he would be able to save his life.
But wouldn't she be the new owner of the lightning?
As if seeing what she was thinking, Ye Che glanced at her disdainfully, "Let it change hands, you don't have the ability yet." ”
"I see, thank you." Ruan Jiuwu thanked him softly, and then thought that all this he had done was just to find sleep, and the throbbing in his heart shrank back, and his chest ached faintly.
"Bang!"
With a dull loud bang, a puff of smoke rose from where Zhang Wuxing was, enveloping Ye Che and himself in it.
The stone table next to it shattered into a pile of stones in an instant, and sharp stone chips flew everywhere.
Ruan Jiuwu hurriedly covered his face with his sleeves, so as to avoid being injured by stone chips.
When she looked around again, she found that Mu Tian had come to her side, looking at her with a worried expression.
"Nine girls, are you hurt?"
She shook her head, and quickly turned around, trying to push away the green shadow that stood in front of her.
Qingying pursed her lips and looked at her, not moving.
"Get out of the way, don't force me to make a move!" She shouted coldly, the black sword in her hand seemed to be unsheathed at any moment.
Qingying was unmoved, and asked expressionlessly, "Miss Ruan, have you forgotten the purpose of the palace master's visit?" ”
"Of course I remember, but ......"
Qingying interrupted her words and said, "Since you remember, please believe the palace master, he will not hurt that person if he makes a measured move." ”
"What if he gets hurt himself!" Because she was in too much of a hurry, her voice also increased.
"It turns out that Miss Ruan is worried about the palace master." Qingying's expression softened a little, and said slowly, "Then don't worry, the palace master will be fine." ”
“……”
Ruan Jiuwu's eyes flickered, and she stalemate with Qingying without saying a word, and after a while, she finally took a deep breath and put down the black sword in her hand.
It wasn't Qingying's words that reassured her, but she knew that if he had the heart to stop her, she wouldn't be able to break through even if she broke through.
The phantom smoke sword technique she mastered was not his opponent at all.
There were several more "thumping" sounds from inside the smoke, but people outside couldn't see the scene inside.
Ruan Jiuwu couldn't help but clench his fists, and his sharp nails pierced into his palms but he didn't know the pain. Now she just wanted to know how Ye Che was doing, and if she was hurt.
It's a big deal, she doesn't worship this master, whether Zhang Wuxing is from Hongdao or not, what does it have to do with her, the most important thing is that Ye Che is safe and sound.
Qingying walked up to her and whispered, "Miss Ruan, there is something I want you to be clear about. Although you have witnessed the palace master in an illusion, it was only by chance, and the palace master's strength is far from what you imagined. Don't forget, he is the guardian of the Qinglan Continent. ”
Ruan Jiuwu didn't pay attention to his words, but pointed to the smoke not far away and asked, "Can you see inside?" ”
"I can't."
As soon as Qingying's words fell, the smoke began to dissipate, and the two figures inside loomed.
Ruan Jiuwu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly shouted: "Ye Che! ”
However, between breaths, the smoke has completely disappeared, and the figures of Ye Che and Zhang Wuxing are also completely revealed.
Yeche's silver sword had turned back into a bolt of lightning, "swishing" around his wrist.
Zhang Wuxing also held a golden long sword in his hand, and the sound of a dragon's groan faintly came from the sword body.
The two of them looked calm and dressed evenly, not at all like they had gone through a fight.
Seeing that Ye Che was not injured, Ruan Jiuwu breathed a long sigh of relief, and the heart he was carrying finally landed.
"Ahem." Zhang Wuxing coughed dryly, pouted and said, "Little girl, you know that you care about him, but you just ask the old man!" ”
When she heard this, her face was hot, and she said softly: "Senior Zhang's complexion is ruddy, and he knows that he is okay without asking." ”
At this time, Ye Che suddenly called her, "Jiu'er, come here." ”
“……”
Jiu'er?
He actually called her Jiu'er.
"Jiu'er, come here." Ye Che said it again.
“…… Good. ”
Qingying consciously stepped aside, and she slowly walked to Ye Che's side, only to feel that he was a little unreal in front of her.
"You're ready to apprentice." Ye Che said softly.
“…… What do you mean...... Are you sure? “
"Hmm."
Without waiting for Ruan Jiuwu to speak, Zhang Wuxing suddenly laughed and said to Ye Che: "You and I have only fought more than a hundred moves, so you can rest assured that you will hand her over to the old man so soon?" ”
Ye Che glanced at the golden long sword in Zhang Wuxing's hand and said, "This Nine Curved Dragon Yin Sword is the treasure of the Red Island, except for the three elders on the mountain who have been in retreat all year round, I'm afraid no one can use it as a magic weapon." ”
"Haha." Zhang Wuxing smiled heartily, and a flash of appreciation flashed in his eyes, "Yes, yes, we know Hongdao so well, we are worthy of being the palace master of the Half Moon Palace." ”
