When the wanted notice began to slowly sweep across the country, the core area of Xumen remained quiet.

The principal's office, like the student villa where Han Xu and his family, is built on a majestic mountain, where you can see the zipline in the sky and the flaming red hot air balloon that the students ride.

The October sunset is as sweet as sugar, and the whole sky seems to be like honey on the stove, blending with the clouds and melting stickily, and the whole mountain peak and this snow-white house are slowly melting like an ice cream discarded in summer.

In the small courtyard in front of the door, Zhou Yong sat in front of the villa, on a stone table that had not been lively for a long time, Peng Jiuling and Wang Baixu sat opposite each other, and Yuan Fei, who was wearing a beautiful red dress, quietly watched the two play on the side.

The sunlight fell on the faces of the three of them, which had left traces of time over the years, and were slowly hidden in them by wrinkles, and the elongated reflections were slapped on the chessboard, drawing a mottled pattern of light and shadow. It's just that although the chess game is anxious, it is obvious that the minds of both of them are no longer on chess, and the pieces are full of flaws, but it is difficult to distinguish between victory and defeat.

Zhou Yong, who was sitting like a clock, didn't care about this game of chess, but sat on a chair and quietly watched the sunset at his feet, working together to carry a swarm of black ants with the corpse of a moth, crossing the mountains and mountains among the grass.

Raising his head, he looked at the three who had often gathered in his small courtyard before, but as time went by, there had been no three in this courtyard for many years, and he felt a little emotional, but all this was crushed by him at the next moment and disappeared, and said slowly: "People are actually like ants, seemingly living a full life, but in fact, they are also dominated by the sun and the moon, they have to go out to forage for food at dawn, and they have to go home when it gets dark, and the next day, the most powerful ants in the ant colony can't escape this fate." As a human being, many times many choices are difficult to understand in the eyes of others, but when you look down seriously, they are actually very simple, just hoping that life can become different from ants. ”

Peng Jiuling's chess pieces were about to fall, his body slowly stiffened in the voice, and after Zhou Yong's voice fell, he gradually withdrew the chess pieces in his hand, no longer paying attention to the paste-like chessboard.

The last time there was such an unusual game in the Void Gate, it was between Wang Baixu and Liu Ye, this time the pattern behind the game, it didn't seem to be sharp, everything was slowly hidden into the dark like the afterglow of the sunset, but in fact, the dark tide was surging, and it was even more dangerous than the last time.

"Your Majesty's eyes are high, and he doesn't care about the decision of one or two ants, and it's not incomprehensible that powerful ants want to live outside certain rules, but you should know that there is no forgiveness for harboring such a thing as criminals. Peng Jiuling closed his eyes and said slowly, "The greater Han Xu does, the greater your responsibility."

Wang Baixu no longer paid attention to this dispensable game, in fact, since several of their good brothers became strangers because of Peng Jiu0 many years ago, it has no longer existed in the chess game.

The parting of ways between good brothers is not necessarily because of any major decision, it can be a lot of disturbing small things, and many different views and positions on many issues are enough for them to lead to drifting apart, and after Peng Jiuling exposed his true identity between them, in fact, he was inseparable from Emperor Shenxuan, and the estrangement between them became a moat that could never be crossed again.

Wang Baixu stood up and looked at the yellow chrysanthemums that had almost all budded in the flower field, put his hands behind his back, and stood here, full of arrogance.

The flowers were harvesting, but he was blooming, and a substantial yellow glow driven by Xuanka appeared on his body.

"You are now Emperor Xuan's dog, oh no, you have always been Emperor Shenxuan's dog, and whatever you say is naturally considered from his standpoint. Peng Jiuling, let me tell you, I have known you for almost 20 years, you have always advocated that the ruling power of the Void Gate should be handed over to the federal government and directly governed by the Federation, we have always disagreed with this proposal, even if my Void Gate is now panicking because of some things and needs some changes, we still will not agree to your proposal, it doesn't matter who the person standing behind you before and now you are, and who you represent. ”

Peng Jiuling lowered his head, sneered, and was silent.

"Actually, our position is already obvious, we have done enough for the Federation, Principal Zhou was also seriously injured in the Imperial Council and has not recovered, we have always considered him so much, why doesn't he consider us, we must also consider our bottom line. Yuan Fei, who had been silent, finally spoke, "It is impossible to hand over the Void Gate to the hands of the federal government, and who doesn't know what Emperor Shenxuan thinks now, the Void Gate can only be a holy place for warriors across the country, and it will definitely not be his personal arsenal." ”

The cold and cold words of a few people, although their voices were not loud, seemed to be scolding a certain great enemy.

Peng Jiuling let out a long sigh, his handsome and upright figure seemed to become more embarrassed at this moment, and said slowly: "The position of many things is not necessarily right to move forward, but it is not necessarily right to be complacent, more than ten years ago, Nangong Bat was in chaos, coupled with today's cold chaos, the federal government has been very suspicious of the self-care ability of the virtual door, this is no longer the opinion of one or two people, but the opinion of the entire federal government, and even within the virtual door, there are many such voices." ”

Peng Jiuling also stood up and patted himself in this ordinary blue sweatpants that he couldn't be more ordinary, he had been wearing from more than ten years ago to today, such an ordinary dress of a big man seemed a little out of place, looking at Zhou Yong, who was eyebrow-raising.

"Han Xu killed the ghost witch, killed Zhaojia, did so many things that hurt the interests of the Federation, and had a relationship with the Holy Land Alliance, you are bent on going your own way, and now there are many secretly questioning voices inside the seemingly calm Void Gate, you can't be unclear, if you don't make any compromises to Your Majesty, you can imagine what will happen later. ”

"Do you think Han Xu is the same as Nangong Bat?" Wang Baixu turned his head, the sun seemed to ignite half of his face, and there was thunder in his eyes, "I am Nangong Bat's teacher, I am the most qualified to speak, Nangong Bat is arrogant, there is no one in his eyes, he is bent on relying on personal force to overturn the world, what he did back then, even we don't think it is right, but Han Xu is different, you should also know this, then you shouldn't generalize." ”

"People are different, but the end result is the same. ”

"The result is the same?" Zhou Yong slowly raised his head and stared at Peng Jiuling, a pair of wise and deep eyes, the ocean was rushing, and his voice was flat: "Peng Jiuling, there is one thing, I think you have never understood. ”

"This world is holy, but it can also be non-sacred, you think everything revolves around the holy is your idea, I have no right to think that you are wrong, but I have the right not to dislike, and in the same way, you have no right to interfere. ”

"Back then, Nangong Bat was wrong, killing innocents indiscriminately, and having no respect for the law, this has nothing to do with external factors, it is his personal psychology, but I don't think there is anything wrong with my apprentice Han Xu's approach, so many people tell me that Han Xu and Nangong Bat statues, I don't agree, they are different in their bones. Han Xu's cultivation talent is not as good as Nangong Bat, but he knows better what is right and what is wrong than Nangong Bat.

I'm also happy for Bai Liuyi's decision, I'm happy for them to survive, but what about the Federation being angry? The ruler of right and wrong is never in the interests of Emperor Xuan, but in the right and wrong itself, what I have done has been compromised many times, but it doesn't mean that everything needs to be like this. Since Your Majesty wants to think that we are wrong, it is his business, not my business, I do have to take care of Your Majesty's emotions, after all, he has done a lot of things for Xumen, but it does not mean that I and Xumen have to do anything for him, and it is impossible for me to regress on the bottom line. ”

When the second "Saint" was mentioned, Peng Jiuling's body trembled suddenly.

After a burst of embankment, it rushed straight to the walls of the palace from the void gate.

The sunlight that was slowly fading here became like thousands of sharp swords in an instant.

"What I mean, is it obvious enough?" Zhou Yong slowly closed his eyes, and between the remaining clear heaven and earth, an invisible door built in the hearts of both sides of the game also closed violently at this moment.

Peng Jiuling smiled bitterly and couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

A few splendid grasses behind him also swayed in the twilight wind.

Everyone knows what kind of consequences the position represented by such non-negotiable words will cause the collision between their behemoth and the Divine Xuan Emperor, and the Void Gate, which has always been safe and sound, may not be able to continue to be safe like this for a long time.

It's just that even he doesn't know what will happen next, what will happen.

However, he did not mean to leave, but slowly stood up straight, and said slowly:

"Understood.

In addition, the Saint would never have thought that his twenty-year-old chess would actually be messed up at this move, so the Saint must know how Han Xu managed to use a few Xuan Cards to fuse the Ling Feng Divine Spectrum, so that Zhao Jia would not have the strength to resist for a while.

Your Majesty needs you to hand over such power. ”

Hearing this, Wang Baixu looked at him and was stunned, and then couldn't help but laugh recklessly.

Peng Jiuling's brows slowly frowned.

Wang Baixu laughed and said: "Hahaha, I'm laughing to death, he has the world's first Xuanka by his side, sharing the same bed, he is the ninety-five honor of Emperor Xuan, and he is one of the strongest martial artists in the world, he actually needs the strength of a high-grade child, and he is actually afraid of a child's two, you say it's ridiculous?!"

Peng Jiu0 did not answer.

This matter is indeed ridiculous, but neither he nor His Majesty knows the answer, so no matter how ridiculous it is, he must put down his identity to ask such a question.

"Your Majesty felt that there was a power in the Void Gate that could threaten him, so his attitude towards the Void Gate became stronger and stronger. Zhou Yong didn't laugh, but in his calm words, he began to be full of pride, "But some things may be so ridiculous, although I am his teacher, I don't know how he did it, and I can't do it." ”

Zhou Yong's sincere words made Peng Jiuling slightly stunned.

"His strength does not come from the void, it comes from himself. Zhou Yong added.

Peng Jiuling didn't know whether to believe it or not, and said: "You know that it is impossible for the Holy Lord to believe this answer, he already has too many points in his body that His Majesty must want him to die, and with the strength he has shown during this time, it is impossible for the Holy Lord to give up." ”

Zhou Yong slowly leaned back in the chair, and a sad expression gradually appeared on his face, and said, "This is also what I'm worried about." However, my position will not change. ”

Zhou Yong smiled and smiled extremely kindly, "So, I wish them good luck."

Peng Jiuling, I also wish us good luck. ”

Peng Jiuling was silent for a moment, and then turned around after the sunset was completely buried in the distant mountain line, leaving the land that he had not set foot in for more than ten years, and he didn't know how many years later.

Yuan Fei tilted his head slightly with concern, and asked in a slow voice, and the two pillar-like men who were silent for a while, without laughter or speaking, asked, "The three of us are their teachers, you say, can they survive?"

Wang Baixu walked around beside her and rubbed the woman who had become a little sentimental these days, and said gently: "Didn't you teach them to swim in the fish? I asked Yang Sen today to calculate, and he couldn't figure out what their specific plan was." Even the bald head didn't know, and even the fools of the Union Army couldn't have known, so they should be safe for the time being. ”

Yuan Fei slowly snuggled into this man's arms, her voice slowly became a little more coquettish, and she complained: "There is such a disobedient and powerful student, I don't know whether to be happy or sad...... I can't help them, and I feel that I am too incompetent as a teacher. ”

Wang Baixu looked at Zhou Yong's half-closed and half-closed eyes, just like the half-black and white eyes in the sky, thinking of the characters in the conversation just now, he couldn't help but say bitterly: "I can't even teach Nangong bats, Han Xu and Bai Liuyi, at least they learned something from us, and they came in handy, thinking like this, I may feel better in my heart." ”

Yuan Fei cocked his head in his arms in confusion, looked at Zhou Yong, and asked slowly: "Principal Zhou, did you really know from the beginning that he was a student of the White Emperor and a wanted criminal in Wanyu City?"

Zhou Yong got up and dusted off his robe, was silent for a moment, and said truthfully: "I didn't know it at first, but after a long time, I could see some things, but some of the things he did actually exceeded my expectations." ”

Zhou Yong turned around and walked into the room, looking back at the slowly dark sky, and couldn't help but have some complicated feelings in his heart that he couldn't explain.

"Boy, after doing so many things, now the void gate can't protect you, I hope you can save yourself. ”

......

......

The night in the palace is beautiful.

The blue sun does not set, and the bright moon in the sky shines brightly.

Emperor Shenxuan sat in the main hall, and the hundred miles of cold autumn who was still unconscious lay in the center of the main hall.

Beside the cold autumn of a hundred miles, there was a woman with skin like snow.

Emperor Shenxuan's face was diametrically opposed to her skin, forming a completely different contrast.

"You mean, the entire Federation may not be able to save a hundred miles?!"
