Volume 1: The Human Cage Repairs the North City Chapter 21: The Reason for the Imprisonment and the Beginning of the Failure

Xiubei is small as a country, but as a city, it is very large.

Cheng Liang has been idle for three years, and has basically stepped on every corner of this otherworldly country.

In addition to the loyal guard Xu Shao, who accompanied him, in most cases, it was Zi Tingyun.

She is the princess of this country, and she is the most talented and highest cultivated warrior in this country.

But she is well-read and courteous, and she does not have a princess temper. He has a gentle and humble personality, never complacent because of his great strength, and has a prestige in the eyes of the common people and has won the hearts of the people.

But she seems to have always had endless sorrows, perhaps this is also the reason why she is willing to go to Cheng Liang, who is cheerful and good at talking.

Cheng Liang admires her very much, and he feels that as an extremely noble princess, it is really not easy to do this. So he has always wanted to help him, and he can be regarded as doing his best.

They don't talk about family and country affairs in general, but the strange situation of Xiubei and the so-called country with a city is really clear at a glance.

Whether she is a princess or an emperor, it is not something that can be changed by herself.

It has long been rumored that their golden boy and jade girl will have a marriage contract sooner or later, Her Royal Highness the princess with the most noble status and the most powerful strength in the country, except for Lord Cheng, the messenger of the gods, who else can be worthy of it?

But she turned a deaf ear, and still came to visit him with all kinds of delicacies, and took him to all the corners of the country that were worth seeing.

Her entry into the Martial Sect Realm was last year.

On the same day, she stepped on the door again, Cheng Liang had changed her clothes and was ready to go out together to celebrate.

As a result, she brought two pots of wine that day and said that she wanted Cheng Liang to drink in the annex.

Cheng Liang is not an old drunkard, let alone drinking with a dignified martial artist.

As a result, he was still stunned, and found that the amount of alcohol had nothing to do with cultivation, and Zi Tingyun was flushed and drunk after a few drinks.

'Cheng ...... Bright, you...... Do you want to leave the Northern Kingdom?'

'I don't want to...... You guys eat, stay, play...... Pretty good. ’

'But I want to ......'

He couldn't remember what they talked about that day, but he remembered that Her Royal Highness the princess and he leaned together and fell asleep in a groggy state, and did not return to the palace.

Oh yes, and the drunk Zi Tingyun is more beautiful than usual.

The beauty is heart-wrenching.

Because the stronger she seems to be, the more sad she becomes.

In Cheng Liang's mansion, there are two small stone tablets.

His parents died very early due to an accident, and although he came to the other world, he still wanted to keep a memory and pay respects.

One day, Zi Tingyun came to him again and said to take him to a good place.

He didn't really want to go that day, but Zi Tingyun was determined to do it, so he said, just come back early.

'Cheng Liang, can you see it here?'

He has a pleasing green space in front of him and a two-sided stone monument that has been carefully restored.

Above, are the names of his parents.

It happened to be the day of his parents' memorial service.

'Good, good. ’

He didn't even forget to say thank you, and stood in front of the stone tablet in a daze until it was dark, and he didn't even remember when he had told Zi Tingyun about this day.

When he came back to his senses, he found that Zi Tingyun had been standing aside with him.

From that day on, he felt that he felt more about Zi Tingyun than he could put into words.

He had to admit that he and Zi Tingyun were no longer just getting along as friends.

But it was precisely like this, since he was imprisoned, he didn't want to see Zi Tingyun.

Even now, in his opinion, he dislikes Zi Tingyun more than Ji Min over there.

When he saw Zi Tingyun, he had a feeling of being betrayed by his friends.

Even if he was a trainee martial artist who didn't know anything, he could see that Suzaku's form was getting worse.

He looked at Sansan, who was still unconscious in his arms, and deeply felt the consequences of being forcibly promoted.

Once this continues, Ji Min will not kill him, but he will definitely kill Suzaku!

He turned his head and glared at Zi Tingyun angrily, "You just watched the demon clan fight in front of you, and you were scolded for not saying a word?"

Zi Tingyun was still expressionless, and he didn't look back: "Otherwise?"

Cheng Liang's state at the moment is like an angry lion: "You are a martial artist, she is also a martial artist, you have been cultivating for so many years, working hard to become stronger, and becoming the strongest person in the country, is it for you to face an evenly matched opponent at this time, trembling next to you, and being insulted with peace of mind?"

Zi Tingyun: "It has nothing to do with this. ”

"Then tell me what it has to do with it!" He angrily pointed at Zi Tingyun's nose and roared unscrupulously: "Aren't you the most fucking sorrowful and have nowhere to show your skills?

Zi Tingyun was silent and indifferent.

"Heh, it turns out that he has been trampled on by the demon clan a long time ago and has become a real coward. ”

Sporadic blood droplets stained Zi Tingyun's beautiful side face.

"Then I really don't know what the point of your cultivation is, you have surrendered from the country to the soul of the Northern Kingdom anyway, there is nothing but a city, not even an enemy, why are you cultivating?"

He pointed self-deprecatingly: "Oh, I understand, Purple Princess, Ziwu Sect, you have worked hard to cultivate just to send me Cheng Liang to prison, break my legs, and imprison me, right?"

Zi Tingyun turned his head, looked at Cheng Liang quietly, and slowly spoke: "You divine envoys were supposed to come down to all parts of the human race, but three years ago, the demon clan asked my father to arrange the summoning array, the purpose of which was to summon you all over and facilitate your imprisonment. It's just that even without the orders of the demons, I don't think it's a big problem to imprison you. ”

Even if there is no order from the demon clan, you have to be imprisoned?Cheng Liang wondered: "Why?"

Zi Tingyun continued: "We cultivated the Northern Kingdom decades ago, and there were also divine envoys, just like you, there are special props to help you cultivate for thousands of miles, and soon become a top martial artist on the famous side, he feels that it is time to save the Xiubei Empire, which has been defeated by the demon clan. ”

Cheng Liang's heart tightened.

"He failed?"

"That's right, that self-proclaimed savior's divine envoy tried in vain to defeat the demon clan with his own strength, and in the end not only failed, but also affected the entire Xiubei Empire that cooperated with him in attacking. ”

Zi Tingyun's momentum was instantaneous, and the majesty of the Martial Sect instantly covered Cheng Liang's body, making him almost out of breath for a while.

"What you are stepping on now, as well as the land within a radius of hundreds of kilometers around Xiubei City, as well as the millions of remnants of the people on these lands, were once part of Xiubei Kingdom.

If you don't lock it up, will you be allowed to rely on props, rely on opportunities to become stronger, and have no mental training at all, to bring the rest of the remaining human races into the abyss?"
