Chapter 211: Returning the Favor
Counting nine cold winters, withered branches and withered grass all over the mountains, cold wind whistling, secluded mountain roads, a young woman, covered with white veil, holding a donkey in her hand, slowly walking down the mountain.
Without staying and explaining too much, and not even informing Tingxue, Shui Lianyue quietly left Tianchi Mountain at dawn, of course, Ziyun's help was indispensable.
Tianchi Mountain is a long way, the peaks and peaks are endless, if you want to go out, it takes a lot of time, but fortunately, I passed through a few farmers, so I bought a donkey in their hands and walked down the mountain.
It's just that this donkey is not as good as a horse, very lazy, stop and rest after walking for a while, originally from Tianchi Mountain did not bring much food, but now it is necessary to feed the donkey, at the beginning of the farmer also bought some bran, but she was too cumbersome, only brought a little bit, did not think that it had not gone far, those bran had already been eaten by the donkey.
Looking down the mountain, she couldn't see through it, Shui Lianyue couldn't help but sigh lightly, and glared at the donkey beside her, if it was the past, she would have killed the donkey a long time ago and made it into donkey jerky as food.
The donkey seemed to feel the displeasure of his master, and blinked innocently, as if to say, what does it have to do with me? It's you who hate the bran as a burden
Finally went down the mountain, and finally saw hope, the bottom of the mountain is no longer another peak, but the road leading to the official road, it's just that Shui Lianyue looked at this road, but hesitated, it seems that she has been dead for too long, and now she doesn't know anything about the outside world, I don't know where this place leads, and I don't know if Nangong Ling is still wanted by her?
To be on the safe side, she decided to take a detour.
The cold winter night was extremely cold, and the wind kept blowing towards the water ripple moon, making the white veil on her face flutter, and there was a feeling of floating away at any time, and the donkey under her seemed to be unable to stand the cold, and walked more slowly against the wind.
"If you don't want to make donkey jerky, you can hurry up for me", a voice that was colder than the cold wind floated in the air, the donkey seemed to understand the master's words, shook the donkey's head, and had a fighting posture, four hooves rubbed the ground, and the speed was much faster than just now.
In the silence of the night, the sound of donkey hooves echoed, and suddenly, Shui Lianyue grabbed the reins, and the phoenix eyes stared at the woods not far away, only to see several red figures flash like ghosts, and a miserable scream pierced the sky, followed by the sound of swords clashing.
Shui Lianyue frowned slightly, but in an instant, she stretched her brows, pulled the reins, and drove the donkey forward.
Now, she's not a nosy person, so when she walks past the crowd of fighters, she just ignores them.
Who knows, the sky does not fulfill people's wishes, and in the shadow of the sword and sword, a long sword stabbed at her with a cold wind.
"Ding", a white light flashed on the cuffs of Shui Lianyue, and the long sword pierced into the ground.
Glancing lightly at the crowd that was still fighting fiercely, Shui Lianyue pulled the reins and continued to move forward.
"Princess Wang", at this moment, a voice burst out from the crowd, Shui Lianyue frowned, but did not pull the reins, still moving forward.
How could she not know the owner of the voice, but so what? Nangong Yu's subordinates, what does life and death have to do with her? is to save him, the blade confrontation is inevitable in the future, why should she do more.
"Princess"?
The green one attracted the attention of the man in red, a pair of narrow eyes half-narrowed, looking at the figure sitting on the donkey, as if smiling but not smiling, extremely weird.
"I didn't expect you to be alive hehe", the charming voice suddenly sounded from behind Shui Lianyue, and in an instant, a red figure flashed and stood in front of Shui Lianyue.
Shui Lianyue frowned slightly, the corners of her mouth twitched, she didn't expect that the person who intercepted Qingyu would be Leng Liuyun.
The red gauze robe fluttered with the cold wind, and the evil face, under the backdrop of the night, seemed to be demonic, and was not affected by the cold weather at all.
"Who should I be, it turned out to be the Leng Great Sect Master, such a cold weather, it's not fast in your Demon Sect, and it is really incomprehensible that he actually came to intercept and kill a rat in person."
Shui Lianyue didn't hide her identity at all, she still knew a thing or two about Leng Liuyun's personality, too much cover-up was useless to him, but it seemed that she was weak-hearted.
Some ridiculous words made the corners of Leng Liuyun's mouth hook up a charming smile, flicked his sleeves, and slowly came to Shui Lianyue's side, flicking his fingertips, making Shui Lianyue's white veil floating away with the wind, revealing that peerless face.
"I haven't seen you for half a year, you are better than before", her narrow eyes looked at Shui Lianyue with a touch of ambiguity, which made her a little disgusted.
"Compared to the Leng Great Sect Master, it's a few points worse."
"Huh".
In the fighting crowd, Qing Yuan obviously couldn't stand it, and there were many knife wounds and sword wounds on his body, but he still waved the broken iron fan in his hand to resist.
Shui Lianyue glanced at the crowd, looked indifferently at Leng Liuyun beside her, and said softly: "I want to save him."
"Why"? Leng Liuyun seemed to have expected that Shui Lianyue would save Qing Yuan, so he just asked with a slight smile.
"There is no reason".
"What if I say no"?
Shui Lianyue frowned slightly, and the indifferent color in the phoenix's eyes disappeared in an instant, but there was a touch of coldness, "Leng Liuyun, you know that what I said will never be taken back."
Leng Liuyun raised his eyebrows lightly when he heard this, glanced at the young man in the crowd who was about to be overwhelmed, and his voice was a little colder, "Nangong Yu's subordinates are also worthy of you?" As far as I know, you are not willing to marry King Yu, why have you changed now? Could it be that you're tempted"?
"He used to be kind to me, this time, the right should be returned to him", although Shui Lianyue covered it up well, she still let Leng Liuyun catch the flickering color in her phoenix eyes.
He stopped talking, the green in the crowd, a touch of anger flashed in the eyes of Danfeng, and then waved his hand towards the crowd, only to see the crowd disappear in an instant, he looked back at Shui Lianyue, and there was a little more fierceness in his charming voice, "Only this once, this, you owe me."
Looking at the direction in which Leng Liuyun disappeared, Shui Lianyue's face sank, originally she didn't plan to save Qing Yuan, but once in King Yu's Mansion, Qing Yuan was also polite to her, and even helped her once, she didn't like the feeling of owing favors.
It's just that she didn't want Leng Liuyun to let go, but to save herself, why did things come to an end and she owed Leng Liuyun a favor again?
"Thank you princess for coming to the rescue", Qing Yuan endured the pain of the wound and came to Shui Lianyue's side, knelt on one knee, and said respectfully.
Shui Lianyue retracted her thoughts, looked at Qing Yuan coldly, and said sharply: "I am no longer the princess, save you, but I will repay your kindness that time, and I will not show mercy when we meet in the future."
As soon as the words fell, she pulled the reins and did not give Qing Yuan a chance to speak, and the donkey seemed to understand what his master meant, and walked slowly forward against the wind.
