Chapter 367: Second Night
The time of the day passed quickly, but for Lan Jiu and the others, it was unusually long.
Outside the window, there was the search sound of a group of snow demons. For the death of Snow Lotus, Xue Hanqing naturally couldn't give up, and almost dispatched the entire Xue Ning Palace to encircle and suppress this Snow Condensing Mountain. Even the snow demons of the Snow Ning Palace were all harshly questioned.
As for Lan Jiu and his party, they couldn't even step out of the door of the room, and Xue Mei and other lord-level snow demons were directly guarding the door, without blinking their eyes.
Listening to the noisy sounds in their ears, fortunately, they were not ordinary people, and they could rely on cultivation to calm down. As soon as the Heavenly Pill Nine Tricks were in operation, Lan Jiu seemed to be one with heaven and earth, and the abundant spiritual energy around him poured into his body, and he only felt that he seemed to have sublimated one step further.
I have to say that this bitter cold place in the extreme north is really suitable for Qing cultivation.
Not to mention the abundance of aura, the most important thing is that there is a unique rule here. With Lan Jiu's current strength, he naturally couldn't touch this layer of rules, but he could faintly feel that this frost and cold was not just caused by the power of the elements, but more like a kind of rule of heaven and earth.
However, at this moment, Lan Jiu couldn't understand the things at the level of the laws of heaven and earth, so he could only secretly refine his own Tiandan Nine Tricks.
Gradually, the sun slowly set, and the earth fell into darkness again. It's just that tonight, the guards of the Snow Demon Clan are much tighter, with a sentry every ten steps, and a lord guarding every hundred steps. And Xue Hanqing personally walked in the Xuening Palace, and she hated the murderer of Xuelian more than anyone else in her heart, and naturally she was unwilling to give up.
When it was set on fire in the middle of the night, Lan Jiu's eyes raised slightly, and the corners of his mouth raised a strange arc.
Although he is a human being, he has always asked himself that unlike righteous people like Li Yixiang, Lan Jiu always has a desire and evil spirit in his heart that ordinary people can't match. So from beginning to end, he was not bound by etiquette and morality, especially since the Lan family catastrophe, he was even more disdainful of those so-called human nature.
The palm of his hand was slightly raised, and the dark brilliance shrouded his body again, and he naturally couldn't easily reveal his identity. The dark element, however, could not be more suitable.
As soon as the footsteps were wrong, this time, the driving was familiar, and Lan Jiu rushed directly towards the place of the secret room. Soon rushed to the front of the secret room, the corners of Lan Jiu's mouth raised slightly, with the lesson of last night, this time his movements were lighter, and he did not attract any snow demon notice at all.
As soon as his palm was raised, Lan Jiu pressed directly towards the mechanism. A small voice came, and Lan Jiu only felt that the wall in front of him was slowly splitting apart.
At this time, Lan Jiu didn't know that Xue Hanqing in the distance still sensed the power of darkness. But I saw that Xue Hanqing's palm was pinching a small compass, and then I only heard her whisper, "Hehe, sure enough, I don't repent, since I dare to break into the secret room of my Xue Ning Palace, since this is the case, then I will take your head to avenge Lian'er!"
As soon as the words fell, he also made a mistake and dived towards the depths of the secret room.
Looking at Lan Jiu again, the call from the bottom of the follower's heart has now come to the innermost end of the secret room smoothly. His heart was beating bigger and bigger, and he knew very well that there was indeed something calling him, and his heart eyes swept into the distance, and in the dark environment, the scene of the whole room was also reflected in his eyes at once.
The first thing that caught his eye was a simple sword, Lan Jiu was slightly stunned, that sword was undoubtedly the sword of the Imperial Capital.
But this sword didn't make Lan Jiu so excited, on the contrary, Lan Jiu moved his gaze to the other side, where there was a quaint box. The body of the box exuded a deep brilliance, but Lan Jiu's gaze could no longer be taken away, he was very sure that the thing he had been looking for in the past two days was in this box.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, flipped his palm, and attacked directly towards the box.
At this moment, it was too late to say that it was too fast, and a light in the sky suddenly fell, blasting towards Lan Jiu's palm. Lan Jiu was stunned, and hurriedly dodged to the side, the attack was extremely powerful, just a little bit, it smashed directly on his body, and then his eyes also moved to the owner of the attack.
Xue Hanqing, this unexpected but reasonable Snow Demon Monarch, was quietly hovering above Lan Jiu's head at the moment.
"Hehe, I really didn't expect that a trick to lure the snake out of the hole will really lead you to your real body. If you dare to kill my Lian'er, then now, I will let you bury her!" On Xue Hanqing's palm, a huge light condensed, and then attacked directly in the direction of Lan Jiu, "I thought that I was hiding under the wrapping of dark power, and I didn't know who it was?
As soon as the words fell, a huge impact struck, and Lan Jiu, who was directly bombarded, flew out upside down, completely out of the package of the dark element.
All around, in an instant, a huge bright light suddenly lit up. Lan Jiu and Xue Hanqing's eyes also collided in the air, only to hear Xue Hanqing say in disbelief, "Since it's you... You are a human who has awakened the dark element, and for the sake of the king's sword, you have done such a cruel and murderous thing, is this the true face of your human race?
Lan Jiu was slightly shocked, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, he looked at Xue Hanqing, and said in a low voice, "Hehe, the king is defeated, since you have found out, what do you want?"
Xue Hanqing's eyes also flashed with a trace of hatred that could not be erased, he looked at Lan Jiu and asked solemnly, "I only want to ask you, is what you did was your own personal action, or was it under the orders of Marquis Murong or under the orders of the empire?"
"Is there any difference between being an individual and not?" Lan Jiu asked amusedly.
"Hehe, naturally, if you do it alone, I'll kill you!" Xue Hanqing's eyes had already been stained with blood, and he shouted hysterically, "But if you are ordered by the empire, then I will slaughter your entire empire!"
Lan Jiu smiled slightly, and did not give any explanation, but on the palm of his hand, a phantom sword suddenly appeared. But I only heard him laugh in a low voice, "Hehe, win me, I'll give you an answer!"
At that moment, Lan Jiu no longer hesitated, and directly held the phantom sword and stabbed towards Xue Hanqing. His lips opened slightly, and he sang in a low voice, "Jiuyin Killing Trick Hunting!"
Looking at Xue Hanqing again, she was also good, her palm was slightly raised, and the sword of ice prism illusion appeared in her hand. The blade of the sword raised slightly, directly towards Lan Jiu's attack, although she did not launch any moves and spells, but a simple stab, it seemed to drive countless cold qi.
The phantom sword in Lan Jiu's hand was divided into two, two into three, and three into tens of millions, winding towards Xue Hanqing.
And Xue Hanqing's offensive was equally terrifying, and the sword blade drove countless ice edges and stabbed directly towards Lan Jiu's sword edge. Not only that, but the temperature of those ice edges was extremely low, and everywhere they passed, they were all caught in a piece of frost, which also made Lan Jiu's hunting technique a lot slower.
The sound of the collision was deafening, and it shook the small secret room in an instant.
Murong Yunfan's body shook, the whole person stood up, and muttered in a low voice, "It's not good, such a powerful collision should be in the depths of the Snow Ning Palace, it seems that something really happened!"
When the words fell, he no longer hesitated, and the whole person stood up and stepped towards the door. But at this moment, the mutation protruded, and two sharp swords pointed directly at his neck, and the female voice of the clear spirit scolded sharply, "Bold human, what do you want to do?"
Murong Yunfan was slightly stunned, and then said, "I feel that there is an extremely terrible fight going on in the Xue Ning Palace, it is estimated that it is related to the death of the Snow Lotus, let's go over and take a look!"
"Hehe, flamboyant tongue!" Xue Mei said viciously, "Our palace master is in Xue Ning Palace at the moment, if there is really something, she will also deal with it... You are a human being, don't you want to take the opportunity to go out again, what are you doing to see people?"
"You!" The mud bodhisattva still has three points of anger, let alone Murong Yunfan, this time he was also completely angry, looking at Xuemei, there was a hint of indifference in his eyes.
"What are you, our palace master said, let me be optimistic about you despicable human beings, I will never let you have a chance to take advantage of it today, hum!" Xue Mei said in a disgusted tone.
"Okay, I hope you don't regret it!" Murong Yunfan didn't want to say more, a trace of killing intent flashed in his eyes, and then he retreated straight into the room, ignoring the snow demons outside the door. However, in my heart, I can still feel the terrible collision, but I can't calm down at all for a while.
Looking at the secret room of the Xue Ning Palace, Lan Jiu was already restrained everywhere, and he was beaten by Xue Hanqing and had no power to fight back.
I have to say that Murong Yunfan's forbearance of three or five times is also reasonable, and Xue Hanqing's strength is definitely the strongest among the demon clan kings. In this bitter cold land in the extreme north, Xue Hanqing's strength is increasing exponentially, even if Murong Yunfan can defeat Xue Hanqing, he will definitely not be able to get any benefits.
At this moment, Lan Jiu felt like this, trembling, and he didn't take advantage of it in the slightest.
"Oracle Wind and Dust Waltz!" Lan Jiu's palm struck, and the phantom sword in his hand exuded a terrifying fluctuation, which was already his strongest move.
But Xue Hanqing was not weak, the ice sword in his hand was raised, and he laughed in a low voice, "Snow God Dance!"
This was a contest between swords and swords, and under the waltz, the air slowly shattered, and then the countless sword qi hidden in it was revealed. And the Snow God Dance was equally powerful, and countless sword roars came, only to see countless ice edges spreading from the sword body, gradually enveloping this space.
With a bang, the strongest collision also made the surrounding houses sway and burst apart.
This secret room, which was originally extremely hidden, finally couldn't resist the impact and collapsed. The smoke and dust dissipated, and finally revealed the two people who were hiding in it to fight each other, Xue Han was standing there fluttering in white clothes, while Lan Jiu was already sitting on the ground, his whole body was stained with blood, and his body was shrouded in countless indescribable white particles.
It seems that the outcome of this battle has been seen.
