Volume 1 Shufeng Continent Chapter 17 Starfall City
Yue Chen suddenly reached out and gently held Zi Muyu's little hand, and her originally plain face was also a little more dizzy, Zi Muyu instantly blushed and turned her head sideways to look at Yue Chen, her little hand struggled slightly and let Yue Chen hold it like this, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little ambiguous.
"When I first saw you, you were playful and quirky, but you didn't dislike me like the others, and you took care of me and stayed with me until I was relegated to the West Courtyard soon after! Yue Chen turned his head to look at the gradually setting sun in the distance, and just held Zi Muyu's soft and boneless little hand and said to herself.
"Maybe if I hadn't met you, I would still have lived a muddy life like before, maybe I would have left the Tao family and no one knew where I died. Zi Muyu turned her head slightly and saw Yuechen under the setting sun, listening quietly.
"But after meeting you, I suddenly got a lot of news, knowing that my parents may still be alive, knowing that I am not an orphan deliberately abandoned by my parents, and most importantly...... I got someone who could occupy my heart. Yue Chen turned his head slightly sideways and looked at Zi Muyu, looking at her gently without any dodge in his eyes.
Under the gaze of the moon, Zi Muyu's pretty face turned red little by little, and in the glow of the setting sun, like a red apple, there was an urge that people couldn't help but take a bite.
"You hooligan!" Zi Muyu struggled away from Yue Chen's mobile phone, jumped off the stone like a frightened rabbit, and turned his back to Yue Chen, looked down at the river in front of him, and whispered: "Who did you learn from this kind of hooligan love story! Like a hooligan idiot outside!"
Sitting up with his arms propped up, Yue Chen looked at Zi Muyu's back and laughed: "Then you can treat me as an idiot uncle outside!" turned over and jumped down from the stone, reached out and grabbed Zi Muyu's finger Yue Chen said firmly.
"I know that I may not be worthy of you yet, but I will try my best to be young now, no matter how long it is, even if it is ten or twenty years, I will definitely make myself worthy of you, and then go to the Forging Body Sect to propose to your father. ”
"Who will wait for you for twenty years!" Zi Muyu turned her head and glanced at Yue Chen, and said with a little dissatisfaction on her blushing face: "I will only give you ten years, before the age of twenty, if you can't meet my father's requirements, then I will marry someone else." ”
Yue Chen was slightly stunned and said with some surprise: "Then you agreed!"
"Hmph!" Zi Muyu didn't look over, but the red on the roots of her ears betrayed her mood at this time.
"Don't be happy, my dad and the sect didn't have a good time, and the elders in the clan, if you let those old stubborns know about today's events, they will definitely gouge out your eyes and throw you out. Zi Muyu looked at him with some concern and said.
"Then I'll work hard to cultivate, if I can't do it now, it doesn't mean that I won't be able to do it in ten years!" Yue Chen smiled confidently and without the slightest cowardice.
"Then since you are so confident, why don't you start cultivating now. Zi Muyu suddenly turned her head sideways and smiled slyly.
"Huh!" Yue Chen trembled slightly, seeing this familiar expression, as if he had seen the little witch who pestered him every day to carry out sneak attacks when he was in retreat.
"How do you want to cultivate?" Yue Chen asked through gritted teeth.
"Then continue to cultivate your holy skills, after all, your current level has just broken through the unstable foundation, and you can still stabilize the foundation while cultivating and upgrading. Zi Muyu replied as if she hadn't seen Yue Chen's bitter gourd face.
For Zi Muyu's answer, Yue Chen was slightly stunned, he originally thought that this little girl would make something torturous, but he didn't expect to get such an answer, Yue Chen nodded without thinking about it: "Of course, it just so happens that I also want to make a breakthrough before going to the academy." ”
"Then you are not allowed to use the Holy Force to defend, nor are you allowed to dodge, you can only use the body in this Holy Skill to dodge my attacks. Zi Muyu squinted her eyes with a smile and said.
Before Yuechen could react and answer, a small fist came to his face with a bit of a wind-breaking sound, and then bursts of wailing continued to sound by the small river in this west courtyard.
Ten days later, the East Courtyard
Today is the day when the disciples of the Tao family go to Star City, the capital of the Star Flow Empire, every three years, the Tao family will select the strongest young generation of the Tao family through the clan meeting to go to the Star City Academy to study, and this year's Tao family will not go smoothly because of the affairs of the demon clan, so the disciples who went to Star City this time were directly selected by Tao Xuan.
"The head of the family can leave with peace of mind, and the Tao family will be handed over to us old guys. At the gate of the East Courtyard, the Great Elder bowed to Tao Xuan and said.
"Well, I'll be back as soon as possible!" Tao Xuan turned around slightly, boarded the carriage, and several carriages were driven away by a few horsemen.
"Ah, it's finally out!" As soon as the Tao family Zi Muyu came out, he looked out the window with a happy face, dancing happily.
Yue Chen shook her head helplessly, patted her little head gently, and slightly raised her eyes to signal her to be quieter.
"Hmph!" Zi Muyu snorted a little unhappily, but she also sat down obediently and quietly looked at the fast-passing scenery outside the car window.
"Hehe! It's better to be young!" Tao Xuan smiled, looking at the two people in front of him with a little ambiguity, there was a different look in his eyes.
Yue Chen not only blushed his old face, but squinted slightly at Zi Muyu, although the latter's eyes were still staring at the scenery outside the window, but there was also a faint flush on his pretty face. On the contrary, Tao Xiao sat on the side and looked at it blankly, completely unable to understand what the situation was.
"Ahem!" Although he didn't know what the reason was, but he obviously felt the embarrassing atmosphere in the carriage, Tao Xiao coughed slightly and said, "Dad, are we going to Starfall City first!"
Tao Xuan nodded slightly, "That's right, it's a long way to Star City, we need to purchase enough supplies in Starfall City and then head to Star City in the south!"
Yue Chen nodded, although the Tao family is affiliated with Starfall City, the sect is not inside Starfall City, and it is still not far from the main city of Starfall City, Yue Chen has only been to Starfall City once, and he still ran out with Tao Xiao when he was very young.
Starfall City is an important border city in the northwest of the Starfall Empire, the distance from the Tao family to Starfall City is not far, under the full speed of the carriage but an hour is already faintly visible, everyone got off the carriage and looked around, looking at the tall city wall not far away as if it was a giant beast crawling on the earth, although it had not yet arrived in the city, but it was already vaguely felt a bit of murder.
"It seems that something is wrong!" Tao Xuan frowned slightly, under normal circumstances, border cities would have a bit of murderous aura, but the murderous aura exuded by the city today is obviously far better than before, with Tao Xuan's strength, the problem can naturally be seen at a glance.
Everyone quickly arrived at the gate of Starfall City, and the fierce aura on their faces made everyone can't help but change their expressions, even Tao Xuan's face was a little more dignified, and at the city gate, rows of soldiers in silver heavy armor stopped people who wanted to enter and leave the city one after another, and screened them one by one, and the examination was so detailed that even the body had a special holy master to search for holy power.
"What's going on?" Yue Chen couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know, but it seems that something big has happened, could it be that the Starstream Empire and the Moon Empire are going to war again?" Tao Xiao looked ahead with a puzzled expression, and his eyes were also full of puzzlement.
"You go and ask what's going on!" Tao Xuan waved his hand, and several Tao family disciples left in response, and after a while, a soldier in black armor strode over under the guidance of several Tao family disciples.
"Hello, Master Tao is in the Lower Starfall City Guard Captain Fran!" The soldier stood in front of Tao Xuan and bowed slightly, Yue Chen clearly felt a powerful holy power in his body, it was obvious that the captain of this guard was also a saint master of no low rank.
"Captain Fran doesn't have to be polite, is this what happened?" Tao Xuan asked with a slight nod.
Fran's face changed, and he looked left and right for a while before slowly turning to the side and approaching Tao Xuan and whispered: "We are about to inform the Tao family about this matter, and we also ask the Tao family master to be able to go back to the city lord's mansion!"
Tao Xuan's face also changed slightly, and he nodded slowly: "Then please ask Captain Fran to lead the way, we children ......."
Tao Xuan looked slightly sideways at the Tao family behind him, and hesitated.
"It's okay, these are all young disciples of the Tao family who are going to the Star City Saint Master Academy, right? Just follow me to the City Lord's Mansion!" Fran looked at the many disciples and several entourages behind Tao Xuan and nodded slowly.
Under Fran's guidance, everyone traveled unimpeded, and many checks were saved, but with a cup of tea, they came to an extremely tall building in Starfall City.
Yue Chen looked at this tall building with interest, and his eyes were a little more surprised, the entire building was made of metal, exuding a jet-black metallic luster, and the huge door was engraved with the three words City Lord's Mansion, which was magnificent, and had a bit of everyone's demeanor.
Several soldiers guarding the gate saw Fran and suddenly perked up and surrounded him.
"Captain, are these people here?" looked at the Tao family with some doubts, and there was a little more vigilance in their eyes.
"This is Tao Xuan, the head of the Tao family, you open the door, I will take them to meet the city lord. Fran pointed at Tao Xuan and said slowly.
Several soldiers also obviously had a little more respect in their eyes when they heard Tao Xuan's name, after all, among all the forces in the entire Starfall City, the Tao family was like a giant, and the head of the Tao family was also the master of the Holy Master in this Starfall City second only to the city lord, for ordinary soldiers like them, this kind of master was an unattainable existence.
"Yes!" several soldiers retreated, slightly adjusting the mechanism on the giant door, and after a roar, the huge stone door slowly opened with a bit of wind and waves.
"The City Lord's Mansion of this Starfall City is the last line of defense of the entire Starfall City, and it is also the strongest line of defense, I heard that this giant gate wants to destroy it, even the powerhouses of the Transformation Realm have no way. Tao Xiao slowly explained to the moon mark.
Yue Chen's expression was also shocked, the transformation realm was the realm that Tao Xuan had only reached, this giant gate could not even be destroyed by such a master, you can imagine how strong the defense of this giant gate is.
Under Fran's leadership, everyone entered the building, the huge metal building was like a huge metal fortress, and the space was far greater than Yue Chen's thoughts, Fran led Yue Chen and the others to a room, and then took Tao Xuan and left quickly, which seemed to be a very urgent matter.
"Yuechen is so boring!" Zi Muyu was a little bored lying on the seat with a helpless look, originally thought that he could have a good time in this Starfall City after leaving the Tao family, but he didn't expect that he would be "locked up" in this huge metal castle just after arriving in this Starfall City.
