Chapter 558: Crossing the River and Demolishing the Bridge
Boom.
A palm hit the back of Horiyuan's neck, and in an instant, the girl's body twitched and fell forward.
At the same moment, the Dark Xuan Ancient Sword raised its stab, and the red edge that went straight away was about to penetrate the toppling body that was blocking between the two, but in the moment that was about to stab, the blade bent around, almost brushing Horiyuan's side neck, and continued to hit the person behind him.
In such a narrow space, if it weren't for the swordsmanship that he had stolen from the master at the beginning, Ning Yue would not dare to use the sword easily. Otherwise, in the aisle where it cannot be used like this, the three-foot-long sword blade will become a burden to bind itself.
Dingββ
The firelight splashed, the tip of the sword swung around, and the person who appeared in the void raised his hand to block, and the ring on his wrist was able to block the edge, and continued to use his strength to lead the dark sword to the other side of the bookshelf.
In the midst of the lightning, Ning Yue leaned over and took another step, and his bent right arm took over the fallen Horiyuan, and at the same time, his left wrist raised and condensed the green blade to chase after him, and then attacked the opponent's chest.
Ping!
This time, it was a flickering blade of the same color that blocked the attack, and the green cold erupted from the back of the opponent's left wrist, raising a horizontal plane to firmly resist the upward pick of the condensing sword blade. Almost at the same moment, the right wrist that was holding down the Dark Xuan Ancient Sword twisted again, and another sword blade appeared and slashed, and the tyrannical power suddenly appeared in the fierceness of the roar, and the roar formed a layer of qi wave fluctuations and swept Ning Yue Lianjian back fiercely.
Whew-
The bookshelves on both sides were trembling, and many books were turning the pages in the wind. At the end of the strong wind along the way, Ning Yue fell down with Horiyuan in his arms, and the sword blade of the condensing light in his left hand was horizontally guarded in front of him, and he was also looking at the opponent at the same time.
I don't know the origin, I don't know the purpose, but at least I can confirm a little.
The shadow of the eclipse.
The refractive cloak, the two condensed blade rings, it is not easy for people who are not Eclipse Yin to take out such equipment except for him. And this is in Xuanwu Prefecture, not to mention whether there is a human powerhouse who can successfully kill the Yin of the Eclipse and seize the equipment completely, even if it is done, there is no demon bloodline and it is impossible to control these two spiritual weapons.
Of course, there is another unlikely possibility. The other demons killed the Eclipse Yin and took possession of the equipment, and remained in the territory occupied by the humans. It's just that compared to this speculation, Ning Yue is more willing to believe that the person in front of him is the real eclipse yin.
"Your Excellency is here alone, presumably not because of the Lietao Gate, but because you want to have a yellow finch behind, can you ask, what do you want in this Tantric Pavilion?"
The other party's shot was only to stun Horiyuan and not to kill, and the shot was also deliberately suppressed without making too much movement, Ning Yue was eighty percent sure in his heart that this person's purpose should be similar to his own.
"Do you need to know?"
The man replied coldly, his eyes swept over the condensing light sword blade on Ning Yue's left wrist, and his eyes became a little colder.
"It's Xuan's Condensing Light Blade Ring, who are you, no matter how you move or act, it doesn't look like you've been trained in the Yin of the Eclipse. And, why did you go all the way with that Horiyuan?"
"You know her?"
couldn't help but worry about it, Ning Yue secretly said that it was not good, the other party knew Horiyuan's identity and still chose to do it, so it would be a little difficult to negotiate peace. Importantly, he had no way of judging which camp this person was.
The other party snorted: "It's hard to know each other or not." Hand her over to me, and I can spare you. How?"
"What if I refuse?"
As soon as Ning Yue drank, the blade of the condensing sword was raised, and the tip of the sword pointed to the top of his head.
The man couldn't help but sneer: "Although you are a little difficult to deal with, and it is difficult for me to use all my strength here. However, it is not difficult to win you. Since you want to keep Horiyuan, it is equivalent to an extra burden during the battle. So, this battle is fair. β
"Do you think I'm going to fight you here?"
Also sneering, the light condensing sword blade that Ning Yue's left wrist spat out skyrocketed a few inches, and the leaping cold sword qi was almost about to pierce the ceiling above. There, the dark lines are engraved with a faint green glow.
"You're also an inluder, and if you're discovered, you might be able to escape this time, but if you want to sneak in here again, you won't have a chance. If that's the case, it doesn't matter, just do it. β
"You!"
The man snorted angrily, intending to step forward, but obviously having some scruples, and finally took half a step back.
"So, you're going to want me to let you two go?"
"No, I mean to say a temporary truce. When we find what we each want, we will go out and then rely on our abilities. Whether they fight each other, or get out of front of the strong men of the Lietaomen who came to besiege them, it depends on each other's creation. How's that offer?"
With his fists clenched, the eclipse Yin's ten fingers rattled, clearly reluctant to accept the proposal. After a while, he chose to compromise.
"Hmph, let's let you two catch your breath a little longer. β
With his swords put away, he walked out of the bookshelf aisle with his hands outstretched, and turned and stepped into the depths of the dark room.
"Presumably, you can only rest assured before I go, right? I said in advance, I will look through the things I have taken, and you can't peep. β
"No problem. I have no interest in the purpose of your trip. β
With a slow breath in his heart, Ning Yue also put away the light condensing sword blade on his left wrist, but the dark Xuan ancient sword didn't dare to put it in the sheath. Before setting off again, he pinched Horiyuan's human middle and shook it violently, and when he saw her slowly open her eyes, he breathed a sigh of relief again.
"Next time, be careful. β
"Hey, what did you just do?"
Hori Yuan shuddered, subconsciously withdrew and distanced herself from Ning Yue, and with a wave of her right hand, the light condensing sword blade was horizontal in front of her.
Ning Yue shrugged helplessly, pointed to the depths of the dark room, and said, "I saved you just now, don't look hostile, okay?"
"What did you say?"
Suddenly stunned, when Horiyuan turned her head to see another figure in front of her, her whole expression changed, and when she was about to scream, Ning Yue stepped forward and covered her small mouth.
"Be quiet. I negotiated with him that I wouldn't do it again until I found what we wanted and left. β
Her eyes were full of surprise, but Horiyuan still nodded, and when her little mouth was let go, before she could speak, Ning Yue took the first step to ask.
"It seems that this time, you are hiding more than one thing from me. Tell me who he is, don't say you don't know. β
Gritting his teeth, his eyes showing a gloomy color, Horiyuan replied, "Demon hunter, Jin Yu. A hybrid of humans and demons, a traitor to the Eclipse of the Junduo Empire, he has killed several of his colleagues. He is famous in the Demon Realm, and because of this, he has no place to stand, so he can only wander and hide in Chaowu Prefecture. For his existence, some acceptable human powerhouses were even willing to pay a lot of money to hire him to hunt down the rest of the demons lurking in the Chaotic Martial State. I was targeted by him on the first day I moved to the city, there should be no gold master, but he saw that I was the Yin of the Eclipse, and he purely wanted to kill me. β
It happened to be the most unlikely answer in his heart, Ning Yue couldn't help but smack his lips, and continued to mutter: "The hybrid of humans and demons will even hunt the Yin of the Eclipse, which is a bit similar to me." However, he should have only met by chance, and he had been hiding in the border city before, most likely for tonight's purpose. Can you guess what he's trying to rummage through in the Tantric Pavilion?"
Horiyuan said angrily, "How do I know this? It's like he doesn't know what I'm looking for." The action has to be quickened, and once this guy gets what he wants, the next target is us. β
"Correct, it's you, not me. And until now, you won't tell me whose contract file you are looking for, how can I help you speed it up?"
"Xue Yun. Now that you know, hurry up!"
The next moment, two figures rushed out together, rummaging through the collections on the shelves. With the experience of the previous car just now, they did not dare to scatter anymore, but searched for the same bookshelf at the same time, and they were able to take care of each other.
Deeper, Jin Yu glanced at the two of them who were anxious, shook his head and snorted, and said, "In addition to the martial arts exercises, the easiest thing to remember here should be the file of the servant contract." The former is in the dark compartment of the third column to the left of the penultimate row, and the latter are the two rightmost columns of the penultimate row. β
"You're so kind to help us?"
Horiyuan looked at it vigilantly, not daring to believe it easily.
Jin Yu replied coldly: "Go and see if it's true or not, it's better than you wasting time here, right?"
Suspicious, Ning Yue came to the penultimate row of bookshelves, grabbed the file in the far right column and probed it, his eyes quickly swept over, his heart suddenly sank, and he nodded towards Horiyuan.
"It should have been four years ago, pay attention to the time written on it. I guess the sorting should also be about time. β
"Okay. β
The two of them sped up, rummaging through the hundreds of files on the shelves, narrowing down the scope according to the time, but it was also much more convenient. A quarter of an hour later, Horiyuan opened a new dossier and finally showed a look of surprise.
"Succeed. β
In joy, she turned around and stepped out of the bookshelf aisle, subconsciously looking back. At that moment, the whole person was stunned in place.
At the entrance gate, it seems that Jin Yu, who has been waiting for a long time, is playing with a scroll in his hand, and looks at Horiyuan from a distance with a smile.
"It's a bit slow. Next, it's the same as promised, each according to his ability. β
As he spoke, he slammed his kick into the large lock of spells hanging on the door on his side, and with a bang, the light that flowed in the lines flickered and lit up, spreading through the door and into the walls.
Immediately after, Jin Yu jumped out of the stairs and rushed to the ground.
"Ning Yue, let's go!"
Hurriedly screaming, Horiyuan jumped out on her own, and in her eyes she clearly watched the two doors forged from special metal begin to slowly close. At the same time, the stone walls on both sides were trembling, cracking hundreds of small holes, and the sound of the machine strings sounded continuously.
The defense mechanism has been activated.
Whoosh whoosh!
In the blink of an eye, countless short arrows of all kinds shot out, scurrying between the rows of bookshelves. Not only on the walls on both sides, but also in the floor, with spikes and spikes on each side, each slender blade with barbs on its sides. Once hit, unless you cut the ball of your foot, you may not be able to get out.
"Crossing the river and demolishing the bridge? No, he wants to blame us for stealing the scroll!"
Ning Yue snorted secretly, swung his sword and jumped out of a round of whirling slashes, and under the red sword wind, hundreds of broken hidden weapons shot out in a counterattack, and countless sparks bloomed together with the subsequent collision of hidden weapons, and also took advantage of this gap to quickly pass through the aisle and rush to the gate that was about to close.
Ahead, Horiyuan waved a single sword while parrying and advancing, relying on her petite figure to dodge more flexibly, at the last few meters, seeing that it was about to be too late, she couldn't care about much, she roared in a low voice, the refractive cloak was raised, and the moment the figure disappeared, the space was shattered, and the advancing figure reappeared in front of him, rushing sideways, passing through the crack in the door that had not yet been completely closed.
Looking back, Ning Yue was still some distance away, and the gate was about to close.
"Ning Yue, hurry up!"
"I know!"
