After Wu Qingyan left, only Xue Yun and Xiao Luo were left in the conference hall.

After being silent for a long time, Xiao Luo pulled Xue Yuan's hand off his arm and held it in his palm.

Her fingers were cold and stiff.

Xiao Luo sighed, nothing more, just held her palms with both hands, and warmed her with his palms that were not very high at this time.

“...... Xiao Luo......"

"Huh?"

Xue Yun took a deep breath, straightened his back, turned his head to look, the light in his eyes stabilized, and his gaze was extremely serious at this time:

"I'm going to ...... Guard the nine wells. ”

Xiao Luo hooked the corners of his mouth: "...... Well. ”

Xue Yun was slightly tightened by the hand he was holding, and in turn clenched his palm tightly, and his stiff knuckles were a little white because of the force: "We must ...... It won't be another ...... Rong Jin and ...... Gu Xi. ”

Xue Yuan's voice was a little hoarse, and his breath was not particularly steady, but his tone was extremely persistent and firm.

Xiao Luo was in a faint trance, and quickly came back to his senses, looking at Xue Yuan, who couldn't hide his worries and fears even though he was forced to calm down, he couldn't help but raise his other hand that was not held by her, and rubbed her hair as before: "Yuan'er's ...... We're not. ”

Xue Yun took a deep breath and nodded, but his face did not improve much.

Xiao Luo sighed in his heart and spoke softly: "Today, after all, it is different from seven thousand years ago, although the situation of Ming Province Valley is not good now, it is also ...... It's better than Rong Jin and ......, who were lonely back then. Gu Xi. Seven thousand years ago, they didn't know that it was the Feng family who was secretly moving, but now although we have not yet proved it, we already know it in our hearts, and we will not be completely defenseless. At present, there is Shahai City, there is the Demon Clan, and the four major families are not calm inside, the Xue family, the Li family, and the Tang family have all made up their minds to oppose the Feng family...... It's much better than it was back then. We can stop it. ”

Xue Yuan lowered his head slightly, took a deep breath, and spit it out very slowly.

Although Xiao Luo's words are indeed very reasonable, it is true that now it is true that the Feng family will directly or indirectly protect Jiujing's power is more and greater, and it is true that there are more advantages than it once seemed to be precautionary, but ......

Xue Yu did not forget that the last catastrophe had passed a full seven thousand years.

According to Wu Qingyan's law, every city lord of Shahai City in the past seven thousand years has not forgotten to trace the truth for Rong Jin and Gu Xi, the two first city lords, but it was not until a few years ago, until the seven-thousand year period of the reincarnation of the nine wells was about to arrive, that some clues were spied from the Feng family's repeated and frequent actions and the truth was inferred.

Shahai City has secretly investigated for seven thousand years, and the Feng family has also secretly planned for seven thousand years.

Why did the Feng family destroy Jiujing to promote the collapse of Kyushu, the reason and purpose of which are not known until now, but because Rong Jin and Gu Xi did not achieve their goal seven thousand years ago, it is obvious that they have been more cautious and more attentive in the next seven thousand years, and they have not shown flaws for so long.

The Feng family may know much more things than them, they have been planning in secret for seven thousand years, what they have done, which Jiujing and which families have been pinched in the palm of their hands, they don't know any of this.

And now, seven thousand years later, the Feng family has changed from the low-key and cautious they once had, and suddenly there were frequent actions that made Shahai City find out something, it was very likely that it was......

They don't feel like they need to care too much about hiding.

First, perhaps the huge power of the first family in Kyushu has made them have a lot less scruples and constraints, and secondly, they ......

After years of preparation, it may have been perfect.

This is definitely not a good thing for them.

In this way, the situation may not be ...... It's better than it was 7,000 years ago.

But at this time, Xiao Luo deliberately didn't mention it, and she didn't want to say it.

“...... Kungo knife ......"

Xiao Luo's fingertips trembled slightly: "...... How?"

“...... The previous story...... Rong Jin, on the Zhongzhou altar, with a knife in his body, and Kunwu knife together to sacrifice Kyushu. Rong Jin's soul is scattered and there will never be reincarnation, and the Kunwu knife is also broken and scattered and difficult to find, so ...... now"

Xiao Luo paused for a moment before he slowly spoke, his voice was still very soft, and there was no anxiety, and there was not much panic: "Kunwu Dao, what the demon clan said is the only artifact on the Kyushu Continent, there should be something special. And it is deeply related to Jiujing, Jiujing has a reincarnation of 7,000 years, and when the time comes to start reviving and reconnecting, then the Kunwu knife that was once scattered may also be reunited with the progress of this Jiujing reincarnation. Moreover...... As you know, the Kungo Sword is still incomplete, and it is the result of the reaggregation of fragments scattered throughout Kyushu...... This is comparable to the situation of Wu Qingyan's institute back then. ”

Xue Yuan opened his mouth, and stopped talking a little.

Xiao Luo knew what Xue Yuan was thinking, and she also knew what she was worried about, but at this time, she didn't plan to let her really export. Xiao Luo leaned back slightly and leaned back on the back of the chair, relaxed his body and showed a little lazy, and said with half-squinted eyes: "I originally thought that in this life, I would also help our Xue Yu Xue Gu master, who would have thought ...... There is such an opportunity, and sure enough, Shang still loves me, so that I can be the greatest help to Lord Xue Gu. ”

Xue Yun's eyes were a little sour, but he didn't let his eyes turn red: "...... If you can choose...... I'd rather not be welcome..."

Since knowing the effect of Kunwu Dao's "sacrifice", Xue Yun couldn't help but panic about Kunwu Dao's early recognition of Xiao Luo. What artifact, what suppression effect, what boundary-breaking ability, after facing such a big and tragic possibility, it seems insignificant.

Xiao Luo clenched Xue Yuan's hand and smiled: "Don't worry too much, after all...... If Jiujing is unharmed, or, even if one or two are obtained, as long as it is not irreversible, the effect of this Kunwu knife will not be used. As long as it is not used to ...... Then this is the only artifact above Kyushu, and there is too much that can be done. ”

Xiao Luo's is also true.

Many times of danger, if there is no Kunwu knife, they may really not be able to get out.

As early as in the Flowing Light Grass Mountains, if there was no Kunwu Knife, the two people who were only in the foundation building period at that time might have died under the giant python. Later, the blood sacrifice soul formation of Qishanhui in Suzhen, Qiaozhou, also relied on the Kunwu knife to finally break the eye of Qishanhui's desperate urging. Later, outside the Jiujing Secret Land in Yuanzhou, if Xiao Luo hadn't opened the barrier outside the Jiujing Secret Land by mistake with the Kunwu Knife, the two of them, together with Wen Ning, would not have been able to get out of the siege of the Feng family monks, and they would still be able to come to Miaozhou and establish their own power Ming Province Valley. Qingzhou Gancheng, if there was no Kunwu Sword at that time, it would not be so easy to break the formation formed by the demon beasts and demon pills in the city. The most recent time, the Xuanqing Sect of Qingzhou, without the help of the Kunwu Dao, even if Xue Yuan's whole body was running the power of the Origin, he was not sure enough to be able to defeat the Distraction Stage Taishang Elder who was a whole level higher than their cultivation......

At least, so far, Kunwu Dao has helped them more.

Xue Yun closed his eyes and didn't do anything more, but subconsciously clenched Xiao Luo's hand for two points, as if he wanted to calm his heart through this action.

In fact, Xue Yun also understood that the pendant of the first piece of Kunwu knife fragment was hung around Xiao Luo's neck when Xiao Luo's master Xiao Ding picked up Xiao Luo, who was still a baby, and it is very likely that at that time, the incomplete and even invisible, Kunwu knife had already recognized Xiao Luo as the master. So......

Whatever she thought, it was a fact and could not be changed.

It's Xiao Luo's life experience......

I don't know if before Xiao Luo got the Kunwu knife, or before Xiao Luo was picked up by Xiao Ding, did this Kunwu knife recognize other owners, and whether anyone knew that the pendant was a fragment of the Kunwu knife.

......

The mountains behind the valley in Ming Province.

Since its initial construction, it has been constantly improving and expanding in the mountain protection array, and now in addition to the cave of retreat, the martial arts arena and the sword court have already been built, and the disciples can also learn or practice moves here in addition to cultivation. There weren't many good things in the Ming Province Valley, so the materials used to build these two places were very ordinary, but they were all set up in formations, so that the ordinary stone and wooden planks were extra strong after being attached to the charm. It is worth mentioning that the formation here was not arranged by Xiao Luo himself, but Xiao Luo pointed out the people who had some endowment or some interest in the formation among the three generations of disciples of Ming Shenggu, and tried to arrange it. Although there are some flaws, it is not bad, it was started when it was built, and in the future, when some of them have higher attainments in formations and talismans, they can come and use these two places to "practice" again, trying to improve and improve.

At the beginning, there were three people who participated in the formation layout and talisman portrayal under Xiao Luo's guidance, and the most prominent one was Tao Kuan. The other two built a formation of Wenjian Ping under the guidance of Xiao Luo, while Tao Kuan drew the formation pattern for the martial arts field alone.

In the valley of Ming Province, except for the valley master Xiao Luo, he is the most endowed disciple on the way to the formation.

It was also in Gancheng, Qingzhou, where he and Li Yanran left the broken aftermath to urge the array, and there were no bones.

Tao Kuan and Li Yanran's mound is also in the back mountain, although it is in two directions with here, but the place where the ancestral hall and the mound are located on higher ground can overlook this martial arts field.

This martial arts arena can be regarded as the place where Tao Kuan's most painstaking efforts are condensed in the Ming Province Valley, and it is also the place where Li Yanran, who used to be a little belligerent and willing to learn from different people, stayed most often in the Ming Province Valley. The two clothed mounds are facing this martial arts arena from afar, and they are also ...... A kind of consolation

When Lu Yan came to the outside of the martial arts arena, his eyebrows were tightly locked, and his steps were a little heavy.

The night was falling, and there was only one figure on the martial arts field.

The man was dressed in a light-colored linen robe, and his hair was tied high in a ponytail, swaying with her movements. The long whip in her hand was thrown out sharply, again and again, from a little rusty to more and more proficient, and every movement and every move was repeated many times.

If......

If you just look at it from afar, if that dress changes into a dazzling red, maybe ......

Someone would mistake her for someone else.

Li Yanran.

The red clothes are sassy and gorgeous, but he is holding a red long whip, straightforward and sharp, and never willing to admit defeat easily.

But the person who is wielding the long whip in the martial arts arena now is not Li Yanran.

I don't know how long it took, but when the figure finally stopped, Lu Yan sighed slightly and walked over slowly.

The man with the ponytail did not turn around, but stood there quietly, not looking back or speaking.

“...... Lime. ”

Lu Yan looked at the person in front of him who had lost a lot of weight but made his back straight, and his heart ached suddenly.

The person standing in the center of the martial arts arena and still holding a long whip in his hand is Li Yanning.

Change the dress of the past, change the clothes of the past, change the hairstyle of the past. Even, what she was holding in her hand was not the most comfortable long sword she was used to.

is alive and well, it is Li Yanran's appearance.

Li Yanning didn't have any expression on her face, but she trembled slightly after hearing Lu Yan call her name lightly behind her.

Lu Yan sighed, walked around, and walked in front of Li Yanning.

Thankfully, she didn't dodge, just lowered her eyes and didn't meet his gaze.

Lu Yanxin stretched out her hand, and slowly, grasped the palm of the hand she was holding the long whip tightly.

Before Lu Yan spoke, it was Li Yanning who spoke first.

Her voice was not soft and soft as before, with a shallow hoarseness and lowness, her voice was not loud, and her tone was very soft, but it was extremely clear in the wide martial arts arena where there were only the two of them under the moonlight.

“...... Are you going to stop me?"

Lu Yan clenched Li Yanning's hand, but shook his head lightly after listening to her words, and when Li Yanning looked over, he lowered his head slightly, met her eyes, word by word, and said seriously:

"What do you want to do, I understand, I won't stop you. Because I know...... No matter what, in my heart, you are still the same Yanling. ”

......

After Li Yanning left, Lu Yan stood alone on the martial arts arena for a long time, looking up at the moon above, but he couldn't help but feel a little powerless and tired in his heart.

Turning around and leaving the martial arts arena, he walked to the edge, and Lu Yan stopped again. After thinking for a while, he turned his head to look at the shadow under the tree not far away: "...... Yan Ning didn't blame you, and everyone in the valley didn't blame you. ”

After a moment of silence, a man stepped out of the shadows under the tree.

It was Zhou Yan, whose face was a little pale, revealing exhaustion.

Zhou Yan's hands hanging down at his side were clenched into fists, and it took a lot of strength to restrain the trembling of his body:

“...... If it weren't for me......"

"Even without you. Lu Yan interrupted Zhou Yan's words softly: "Even if there is no you, Ming Province Gu is destined to face them, whether it is for Gu Xun, or for Jiujing, for the safety of Kyushu that we can't sit idly by." So...... Sooner or later, it's just that. Without you, there would be other reasons. ”

Zhou Yan lowered his head, bit his lip, and said nothing.

"The more that's the case, the more you have to cheer up. Lu Yan stood more than a dozen steps away, looking at Zhou Yan, who was half of his body in the shadows: "Don't do what they want." ”

After Lu Yan finished this, he walked away without staying any longer.

Zhou Yan stood under the tree for a while, slowly raised his head, and tears slipped from the corners of his eyes.

“...... Be...... I'm going to keep this life...... Keep this body as a poison technique...... ...... for them Revenge ......"

Zhou family.

Also welcome...

Tao Kuan, Li Yanran.

She is ashamed of them, and she will use all her strength to repay it herself.
