Arturi found the place where a few people got off the earth dragon yesterday, they released the earth dragon when they arrived at the frozen forest, and let them move freely, these things are trained by the army, and they will not go too far, when Arturi and Lily found it, the four earth dragons have been killed and frozen in a huge block of ice, apparently they have long since choked, and the remaining earth dragon is nowhere to be seen, it is obvious that Anna has come one step ahead of them, and the earth dragon has been ridden away by her.

Seeing such a scene, Lily's face suddenly sank, and she glanced at Arturi: "What now?" ”

Without the earth dragon, if you rely on the legs of the two of you, you want to get out of this mountain range to find a place where there are people, and then exchange for transportation, and I don't know how long it will be after returning to the imperial capital, she has a little fire in her heart, this time the task is not going well everywhere, she has been suppressed by Anna, and now even the earth dragon has been preempted by her, Lily gritted her teeth, and Arturi looked calm: "I will take you out." ”

When Lily heard this, she wanted to cry without tears. It's not that she is worried about not being able to go out, she will definitely be able to go out, but this is a matter of time, if she walks for ten days and half a month before she goes out, she will be finished when she returns to the imperial capital.

Half a month later, once the light sacrifice passes, once the choice of the holy woman is determined, she will never become a holy woman, do you really want to resign herself to her fate and return to his territory with Arturi and marry him? Lily's eyelids drooped, blocking the brilliance in her eyes, and she would definitely not agree to such a condition.

She also wants to return to the temple and become a Holy Maiden of Light, using the temple's deterrent power and the strength of archbishops such as Andrew to protect herself. This is what Andrew's old fox owes herself, she can take advantage of this time to practice hard, no matter how strong Anna is, but until the last moment, Lily still doesn't want to admit defeat, since her mission this time is to save her life, she can't be casually completed by Anna.

Arturi had been looking down at her, and saw that her eyelids were drooping at this moment, blocking the thoughts in her eyes, although the expression on her face was as usual. Can be thin under the eyelids. The eyes don't move.

No matter how well she disguised it, Arturi could tell that she wasn't as calm as she had appeared. Although the two used to be so close, Lily didn't seem to be so sincere to him, and he bowed his head. The forehead lightly touched her cold and smooth cheek. She suddenly asked:

"Can I go back sooner?"

"Why did you go back early?" She still has to ask for herself at this time. I don't want to tear my face, so I have some scruples when I speak. She didn't tell her what she was saying, and Arturi was confused. He asked rhetorically, and Lily hesitated for a while: "The Light Festival is about to start, anyway, I am also a person from the Light Temple, even if I can't find the scepter this time, I will have to go back to pay the errand after all, not to mention that you were summoned to the imperial capital by His Majesty the Emperor, isn't it just to participate in the Light Festival?" If you're late, I'm afraid it's not good. ”

He didn't look flustered at all, and Lily wondered if he actually had some way to rush back earlier, and she said a few words, and Arturi glanced at her unhurriedly:

"Do you need to give an account to the people of the Temple of Light? After you go back this time, you should go back to the fiefdom with me, I have already asked people to start preparing for the wedding, and I don't really want to invite people from the Temple of Light to attend. ”

After speaking, he paused again, and when he saw Baiyi, he couldn't help but show an anxious look, and endured the smile on the corner of his mouth: "As for the emperor inviting me to participate in the Light Festival, I will participate when I have time, if I don't go, what can I do?" "Although the Arturi family still nominally belongs to the Noray Empire, in fact, the military regime has long been independent and is a separate small country, and the emperor of Nolei has no control over him.

What's more, the most important thing is that this time the Light Festival is very important, because the Pope and the Holy Maiden are to be chosen, and the reason why the Emperor and several archbishops of the Temple of Light have discussed the early holding is that they are afraid that the people of the Temple of Light will prevent the Temple of Light from electing the Pope. After all, with a leader, the Temple of Light is equivalent to having a backbone, and it will rise again. The Dark Temple didn't want to see that kind of scene, they had been fighting to the death with the Temple of Light for many years, and they would definitely come to make trouble, so in order to prevent the people of the Dark Temple from sabotage, so after discussion, it was decided that the Light Festival would be held half a year in advance, and the news had been blocked, until the last few days, there was no complete leakage, in order to catch the people of the Dark Temple off guard, even if they wanted to destroy it, they were not prepared.

And in order to strengthen the defense, the temple did not know what kind of benefits were used to impress the emperor, and the emperor borrowed a guard from Arturi. On the surface, Arturi suddenly entered the imperial capital, but in fact, this time he brought people to the imperial capital, as long as his guards are still in the imperial capital, whether others are present or not, the emperor probably doesn't care, and maybe he will be very happy that he is not in the imperial capital.

This guard is strong, but once Arturi leaves, then the dragons will be leaderless, and the emperor will naturally guard against him.

Arturi told Lily about these reasons, Lily's heart suddenly cooled, a feeling of suffering from a loss surged from the bottom of her heart, when the task was long, she rarely encountered this kind of situation where she suffered losses one after another, bad situations kept happening, bad news one after another, Arturi's words seemed to cut off her retreat, Lily couldn't help but be a little angry:

"In that case, then why did you promise me to come out with me?" Knowing that she came out for the Scepter of Light, and got the Scepter of Light because she wanted to become a Holy Maiden of Light, and promised to marry Arturi after the matter was completed, it was just a plan for rights and interests, not sincere. But now that she came out, she didn't get the scepter of light, and now she can't go back, the position of this saintess is also in vain, and she was also taken advantage of by Arturi, and now that the wedding is about to be held, she is like a duck that is about to be caught up on the shelf, and an inexplicable anxiety swells up in Lily's heart, making her heart burn more and more.

She finally couldn't hold back her calm face when she spoke, but for her anger, Arturi didn't seem to care about her attitude, and when he heard this, he only raised his eyebrows:

"You made this choice, my dear, I didn't force you." He has already jumped like thunder, but he is still there, and the most important thing is that Lily thought about it carefully, and became a little depressed.

It is true that he has never persecuted himself from beginning to end, he just revealed a lot of inside information to himself, and provided himself with some plausible clues, everything he said was the truth, but it was intermittent, if these words were connected and said, then Lily might have guessed the truth, but because he consciously said something, not all of it, so what he said, after Lily thought that it was verified, plus her own original reasons, entered the wrong dead end.

Coupled with some clues he provided, he lured himself to see Anna and Brian**, and it was since then that Lily decided that Anna was the task he was going to complete, and now it seems that this conclusion is generally not wrong, but when you think about it seriously, it is very wrong! Arturi is cunning as a fox, he tells the truth and does nothing, he is like a master of digging holes, and he has put himself into it step by step.

It was his own decision to want to participate in the Holy Maiden Trial, and he wanted to ask him for help, and he asked for it, and he made a request, and Lily thought that he was smart enough to find a way to return to the starry sky after completing the task and becoming a Holy Maiden, thinking that he could avoid him, so he agreed.

But now that I think about it carefully, things have nothing to do with him at all, I think I am smart but I was mistaken by being smart, a mountain is still a mountain high, she planted it this time!

It's just that Lily understands this, but she is angry in her heart: "You didn't persecute me, but you concealed some important clues, you misled me, so that I didn't get the Scepter of Light at all this time, and our previous transaction shouldn't have been counted!" ”

As if he had expected her to repent, Arturi laughed at last, and he stared at Lily with a conniving gaze, as if his eyes were stained with a smile:

"It's true that there are some things I didn't say." He first nodded in acknowledgement, and Lily was about to speak, when he continued: "But what does it matter if I say it or not?" If you didn't want to marry me at that time, we didn't have any relationship with each other, why should I tell so much news to a strange lady? If you want to marry me, then there are some things to say or not to say, the result is the same as now, you will always marry me, so you say, what can these concealments hinder us? ”

His words did sound reasonable, and Lily was speechless, and she glared at Arturi, and after a long time he laughed, wrapped his robe around her tightly, and kissed her on the lips, despite her dodge.

The conversation between the two in the Frozen Mountains came to an end for the time being. Without the earth dragon, Arturi began to hold Lily to walk out with the strength of his body, he didn't take big steps at every step, but he walked very steadily, Lily didn't want to pay attention to him at first, the two of them stopped and walked like this, seeing that it was impossible to return to the imperial capital for ten days and half a month, Lily was really anxious, she couldn't help but beg Arturi, and under his semi-lure, although he was not really swallowed by him again, but after eating a lot of tofu, Arturi finally took her to go fast.

The two spent fifteen days out of the frozen mountains, these days Lily because of the physical fitness is not strong, most of the time is on his back, looking for food is him, Lily has not suffered much, but ten days down, Lily still feels tired, but he is still in good spirits, the two out of the mountains, under the urging of Lily, he found a local army, I don't know what method was used, borrowed a dragon, the two sat on the dragon, and finally set off to the imperial capital. (To be continued......)
