Chapter 18: The Rainbow Cave
Rainbow Cave, located in the depths of the Aoba Mountains, is a canyon longer than the Phantom Valley, and at the end of the canyon, there is a cave that has been dug out long ago.
The reason why it is called Hongdong is because it was once the retreat place of the previous head Qinghong.
"Although there are more spirit beasts around, but the head of Qinghong at the entrance of the cave has arranged a nineteen sword formation, unless the strong person of the Creation Realm makes a move, no one can break it, you can rest assured of safety. The old man said.
"Although it is a year, for martial cultivators, this time will pass quickly. If you are really bored, you can also comprehend the Nine Sword Formations, Sword Formation Divisions, which are rare in the entire Tianyue Continent, and if you can become one of them, your combat power will inevitably increase greatly. ”
"It's okay, a year, it's gone by quickly. Li Xiaohong comforted.
"The disciple understands. Chen Nian smiled, the cave mansion is a little simpler, but as the old man said, he can spend his time on cultivation, plus the protection of the Nine Sword Formation, maybe the cultivation effect here is better than that of the sect.
"Hopefully, in a year's time, your performance will impress the team. Patting Chen Nian on the shoulder, the old man encouraged him and looked at Li Xiaohong.
Li Xiaohong's big eyes showed reluctance, and when she stepped on the spirit sword sacrificed by the old man, she suddenly asked: "Chen Nian, will you miss me this year?"
"Why do you want to miss you?" Chen Nian asked rhetorically, so angry that Li Xiaohong gritted her teeth.
After the two left, Chen Nian walked out of the cave and looked around, of course, he didn't go far, because with his spiritual thoughts, he vaguely sensed that there was a behemoth in the direction of Taniguchi.
"I don't know how many spirit beasts it is. ”
Spirit beasts, classified according to their strength, have a total of one to nine grades, one grade is the secondary, and nine grades are the highest.
"With this door god here, Wan Feng wants to kill me quietly, I'm afraid it's not so easy. Smiling, Chen Nian returned to the cave mansion and opened the sword formation according to the mantra taught by the old man.
Suddenly, the sound of the sword sounded, and a thin film appeared at the entrance of the cave, and the film fluctuated a few times before it became invisible, but it did not disappear, but hidden.
The defense was formed, and Chen Nian also walked to the central stone platform and sat down cross-legged, and began to adjust his state.
When Chen Nian began to cultivate, not far from the Hongdong Cave, the figures of the old man and Li Xiaohong flashed out.
"Old man, why are you doing this, can you say it now?"
"First, as the old man said before, the sect is not as harmonious as it seems on the surface, and the princess must have noticed this, right?" the old man said slowly, the princess in his mouth naturally refers to Li Xiaohong.
The surname Li, in the Tiantang Empire, is a national surname, and only the royal family deserves to have it, and Li Xiaohong is the third daughter of the contemporary Tang King and the most beloved daughter of the Tang King.
"You mean Wan Feng, with your strength, it won't be a problem to solve him, right?" Li Xiaohong frowned.
"But behind him there is still the Lingyun County Wanjia. ”
"He dared to get involved, and he was killed. Li Xiaohong's little face had a strong domineering on it.
The old man smiled bitterly, Li Xiaohong dared to say this because there was the royal family behind him, but he didn't dare to think like this, because why did the royal family help the Aoba Sword Sect.
"In this case, instead of staying in the sect, it is better to cultivate in the Hongdong, and one year, with his qualifications, is enough to grow. ”
"That nineteen sword formation, you can't give absolute protection. Li Xiaohong said in a deep voice.
"So, the princess's help is needed. ”
"Help?" Li Xiaohong was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said, "You mean ruthless?"
Seeing the old man nodding with a smile, Li Xiaohong immediately shouted at the void: "Ruthless, come out!"
"If you don't come out again, don't blame me for telling my father that you don't protect me well. ”
The voice swirled, not far away, the space fluctuated, and a man in a green shirt flashed out, half of the man's face was covered by scattered green silk, and the exposed half of his face was sad and joyless.
"You're finally reluctant. Seeing him, Li Xiaohong's previous dissatisfaction suddenly vented, "I called you twice before, why didn't you make a move?"
"It's not that your life is threatened, why do you want to do it?" said ruthlessly and lightly.
"I'm also in the range of threats, okay?"
"Suspicious threat, not really dangerous. ”
"You. ”
stared at the ruthless in anger, and after a while, Li Xiaohong took a deep breath and said, "I called you out this time to let you secretly protect Chen Nian." ”
"There is no such obligation. ”
"It only takes a year, and as long as Your Excellency is willing, the old man is willing to give a heavy reward. The old man clenched his fists and bowed.
"Not interested. ”
"Why are you so ruthless?" Li Xiaohong gritted her teeth in anger.
"I was originally called ruthless, if I didn't owe King Tang a favor, I wouldn't be too lazy to care about you. ”
"How can you agree?"
"I won't agree to anything that has nothing to do with you. ”
"Okay! The princess told you that the princess has taken a fancy to Chen Nian, and he is the future colt, so it's okay, right?" Li Xiaohong said word by word.
"The future is, the present is not. ”
"Ruthless!" Li Xiaohong was about to be mad.
"If it's okay, don't call around. Ruthless's eyes did not fluctuate, and the next moment, the figure gradually blurred, and finally disappeared.
"I'm. Li Xiaohong shouted, "I must sue you to my father." ”
"Thank you, princess. ”
The old man arched his hand, with a touch of regret between his eyebrows, "The old man will find a way to deal with this matter." ”
"Don't worry, this princess will definitely help in this matter, and I will immediately send a letter to ask my father to send a master. Li Xiaohong said.
"The old man thanked Princess Chen Nian on behalf of him. A glint flashed in the old man's eyes.
"It doesn't matter. ”
Li Xiaohong waved his hand, "My royal family has a great relationship with your Chen family, and if it hadn't happened too quickly fifteen years ago, otherwise the royal family wouldn't have watched your Chen family fall apart." ”
There was more sparkle in the old man's eyes.
Now, it is hard to find out that he is a lone seedling, how can he be easily destroyed by others. ”
"The princess is righteous. ”
The old man bowed again.
"Old man, don't be like this all the time. Li Xiaohong quickly helped the old man up and said, "I'm only thirteen years old, and I can't bear your gift." ”
"The wisdom of the princess is not far behind that of some adults. The old man complimented, and then his brow furrowed.
Seeing this, Li Xiaohong asked, "Old man, what are you worried about?"
"The princess didn't know, there was another reason for punishing him to come to Hongdong this time, that is, the old man wanted to see who else would make a move on Chen Nian besides Wan Feng. ”
"Because the old man always suspected that Chen Nian's appearance in the Aoba Sword Sect was not a coincidence, but a special arrangement by some people. ”
"Someone?" Li Xiaohong was stunned for a moment and said, "Who?"
Retracting his gaze from the direction of the rainbow cave, the old man looked at the void, paused, and said in a deep voice: "Murderer!"
