Xue Yue walked slowly along the road to Shanglingyan, feeling a little thirsty. When she came across a pond, she stopped, bent down and drank a few sips of water, washed her face, and arranged her hair before she sat down to rest.

A breeze blew, the water trembled slightly, and even his own reflection shook to pieces.

It's been a long time since such a person has walked freely. Whether it is in Cloudsdale or Shanglingyan, she is a member of the collective, and her special identity makes her every move attract attention. This time she was sent back to Shanglingyan, but unexpectedly gave her a short chance to rest. She leaned against a tree by the pond and closed her eyes to rest.

didn't want to close her eyes, and she couldn't help but think of Li Li and Yang Yizhao in her mind.

Thinking of Yang Yizhao, she felt a pain in her heart again. Of course, she loved Yang Yizhao. When she was a child, although Yang Yizhao had a free and uninhibited temperament, he was also very supportive of her. Although the two had a lot of quarrels, they all ended with Yang Yizhao giving in.

But fate didn't know where to write a wrong stroke. Since Yang Yizhao and Ren Qingmei went on a mission from Yanjin, it seems that everything has changed. Yang Yizhao is more like leaving than before, and the lace news is continuous. How could she, a young city lord of Cloudsdale, deign to compete with those wild flowers and weeds for men? So, he didn't care, she was angry and cold, and the gap between them grew bigger and bigger, and finally she couldn't control it.

If Yang Yizhao could have Li Li's firmness in love, how could they get to where they are today?

In fact, when she left Xingzhuang, she had already noticed that Yang Yizhao was not far behind Xiao Yezi, and followed unhurriedly. But she still didn't look back. Not only because of the small leaves, but also because of their proud heart.

It's Xiao Yezi...... It's not as bad as expected. When I asked for Cheng Kong's life yesterday, if it weren't for Xiao Yezi's coquettish idiot, the helper would not have pardoned Cheng Kong and himself. She understands that in fact, Xiao Yezi does not need to be involved in the game, but Xiao Yezi is still obliged to relieve her. She owes Xiao Yezi a favor.

But when Xiao Yezi asked about Li Li, she just didn't want to reply. Thinking about it in hindsight, maybe there is a faint trace of jealousy in my heart. Obviously, she is the pride of the sky, and Xiaoye is just a country grass mustard. But several men around her treated Xiao Yezi differently, and she became a loner. In reality, what can you change if you don't respond? It's better to maintain the only remaining self-esteem, or at least walk decently.

She looked at the clouds in the sky and sighed. Father's entrustment still rings in my ears. But the situation in the gang is complicated, and she is also struggling in Lingyan. She closed her eyes and rested as she thought about her next steps.

The sharp battalion has been making a lot of moves recently. Just by looking at the rumors they spread among the small leaves, their ambition can be seen. Lu Di has been away from the gang for so long, but the gang leader has not set up a new Western Heavenly King for the Fengrui Battalion, obviously because he has scruples about Gao Lan. Gao Lan is ambitious, and in recent years, he seems to have the intention of joining forces with Ren Qingmei. And Ren Qingmei's Creation Building has been taking advantage of his position to compete for power and profit, and many obstacles have been set up in Cloudsdale. Although Cloudsdale is full of talents, it is more of a hero who marches and fights, and when it comes to the art of scheming, there are really few people who are good at it. If Yang Yizhao's Liren Pavilion and Ren Qingmei stood on the same team again, Cloud City would be attacked on its back. Although Yang Yizhao has a good heart, it is not yet time to make a decision, and everything is unknown.

What can be done to get more foreign aid for Cloudsdale? She forced herself to meditate, but she couldn't come up with a proper solution. She was so bored that she was dizzy. She opened her baggage and tried to find a box of cool oil to wipe on. When I was rummaging, I saw a sharp weapon tumbling out of the baggage.

Isn't this Li Li's sword? She picked up the sword, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her heart.

Right! And Li Li!

She hurriedly wrapped her baggage, identified the direction, and recognized that this was the fork in the road to Shanglingyan and Fengruiying. If she can find a fast horse, in one day and one night, first rush to the Fengrui camp, and then turn back to Ling Yan, although the time is tight, it is enough.

It's just that the Fengrui Camp is a high-end gathering place, and if she breaks in rashly, not only will her life be in danger, but it will also lead to mutual hostility between the Fengrui Camp and Cloudsdale. Is it worth the risk for a little Li Li?

In terms of intrigue, this operation is too risky to be tried.

But if it was to confirm the purest trust between people, in order to find a like-minded companion, she felt that she should be impulsive once. If only scheming is left between people, and the simplest trust is lost, Cloudsdale will cease to exist.

As a disciple of Cloudsdale, you should have the determination to dedicate yourself to chivalry and commitment. She believed in herself, in Li Li, and in the promise between them.

has lost love because of lack of trust. If even trust is lost, then what is left of her? If you were a father, you would do the same.

She carried the burden on her body, sneaked back to the stable of Xingzhuang, stole a fast horse, and galloped all the way in the direction of the Fengrui camp.

Midnight. Fengrui Camp lecture hall room. Just after the hour, Li Li finished his pranayama exercise and was about to sleep.

Since he won two battles, the entire Sharp Battalion has been extremely respectful to him. Including Gao Lan, they no longer restrict him in details. He also ended up in a relatively relaxed environment. But he can't slack off. I heard that Shen Yelai is good at assassination and sneak attacks, maybe in the place where he is not aware of it, there is a pair of eyes staring at him, waiting for an opportunity to crush him. When you are in the enemy camp, you must be careful in everything.

Fortunately, the day before yesterday had confirmed Xiao Yezi's wellness, and he had no worries for the time being. At present, there is only one god who is worried.

When he first arrived, he also wanted to steal gossip to grasp the dynamics of the camp as if he were in the village of Cloudsdale. But it didn't take long for him to find that everyone in the Fengrui Battalion performed their own duties, from point to line to surface, connected into a sophisticated network. Except for the three hall masters, no one cared about any information other than their own duties, and even if they knew something, they would never talk much. The decision is in the hands of each hall master, layer by layer. Between superiors and subordinates and peers, there are only orders and executions.

This is the Fengrui Battalion, and all actions have a set of quantitative processes. If you don't want to endure such quantification and are not willing to become a pawn, then fight a duel and fight for your rights and interests with the simplest force. In the Fengrui Battalion, the strong is king, and it is the general rule at all times.

Or in the eyes of the weak, such an environment is undoubtedly deadly, unbearable, and perverted. But in Li Li's opinion, such an environment is really comfortable, he doesn't have to think about any complicated relationships, he just needs to grab and fight. In Gao Lan's words: "The Fengrui Battalion only needs the best." Even if it's a sycophant, I'm going to shoot the loudest one. ”

Li Li closed her eyes and fell asleep. He didn't know for the time being that on the first layer not far from him, Xue Yue had already fought with Gao Lan's disciples upside down. It wasn't until Gao Lan sent someone to inform him to go to Wulu Hall to meet his "old lover" that he didn't know that Xue Yue had come.

By the time he hurried to the second floor, Xue Yue had already been tied up and kneeled on the ground. Although she still had a haughty expression on her face, there were blood marks on her arms, and she was obviously seriously injured.

Li Li was indignant in his heart, and directly stepped forward to untie Xue Yue, and said angrily: "What does Hall Master Gao mean by this? ”

Gao Lan stretched out his hand, blew on his hand, and smiled: "Recently, someone Gao was studying the dragon claw hand, and it happened that Xue Jinzhi came to visit, so he couldn't help but give it a try." He said lightly, "Don't hurry up and serve Xue Jin tea." ”

Several disciples of the Fengrui Camp immediately stepped forward and served tea to Xue Yue. Xue Yue snorted, didn't take the tea, and stood up reluctantly with Li Li's support. A few more disciples offered her wound medicine, but Xue Yue didn't thank her, so she took it and used it.

Gao Lan picked off her nails, squinted at Xue Yue, and said, "I don't know what Xue is doing when he comes late at night?" ”

Xue Yue took care of the wound, and then said proudly: "You are not a Heavenly King yet, and you are not qualified to judge me." ”

Gao Lan raised her eyebrows: "You'd better be honest." Otherwise, someone Gao invited Shenlong to come and play with Xue for a while. ”

When Xue Yue heard the name of the divine dragon, his face turned pale. She knew that Wu Yu Tang was good at manipulating poisonous snakes and poisonous insects, and this divine dragon was also one of them, and his prestige was far and wide, no less than the weapons of Qingfeng Hall.

She couldn't be honest in front of Gao Lan, so she had to glance at Li Li and said in a low voice: "I broke with Yang Yizhao." ”

As soon as this sentence came out, the meaning was obvious - Xue Yue and Yang Yizhao broke up, and the pain of falling out of love was difficult to let go, so they ventured to find Li Li, hoping to relieve their worries and renew their lovesickness. Li Li immediately understood what she meant, knowing that this was a smokescreen, and she must have something important to tell her when she came this time. In order to confuse Gao Lan, he immediately took her hand and made a gesture of deep love. Xue Yue didn't resist, just let him hold his hands and look down at the ground.

When Gao Lan heard this, he immediately smiled: "I thought there was an assassin, but I didn't expect it to be an affair." It's Gao who doesn't understand the amorous feelings. He glanced at Li Li and said with a smile: "In this way, you two can do it yourself." If Xue Jinzhi wants to come in the future, he can tell me. If you don't tell you like this, don't blame Gao for someone kidnapping you and sending you to the Sword Palace. ”

Li Li simply saluted goodbye: "Thank you." After speaking, he took Xue Yue and walked all the way out of the Fengrui camp, until he walked into the stone formation outside the camp, then let go of his hand and said softly: "I have no choice but to offend the girl." ”

Xue Yue hid his hands behind his back, lowered his head and said softly, "It's okay." She has been held by Li Li's big hand for a long time, and the palm of her hand is always very intimate with the back of her hand, so she doesn't have to pretend anymore this time, and there is something strange in her heart.

Li Li saw her like this, and her heart was also a little twisted, and she hurriedly cleared her throat to relieve a little embarrassment, and asked, "Did you come to me specifically?" ”

Xue Yue smiled faintly: "You are very smart, you can hear what I mean in just one sentence." ”

Li Li also smiled: "If it weren't for something important, how could a proud person like a girl be willing to admit this unwarranted relationship?" ”

Xue Yue looked around and saw that the stone forest around him was secretive, and he was afraid that Gao Lan would send someone to take advantage of the situation of the stone field to spy on them. She thought about it, lowered her head, stepped forward and hugged Li Li gently, and said in a low voice, "Don't mind." Inevitably, there will be people watching. It may be more convenient to talk like this. ”

Li Li was suddenly gently hugged by her and was surprised. Only a burst of fresh and elegant fragrance diffused from Xue Yue's clothes, slowly penetrating into his chest, making him speechless for a moment.

After a while, he said, "I've wronged you, I'm sorry." He didn't dare to move, only heard Xue Yue say, "You wrap your arms around my waist." Not like that. He blushed, and then slowly reached out and put his arm around her waist.

Such a beauty is leaning on her arms like nephrite at the moment, and even if she is the king of heaven, Lao Tzu will be moved, not to mention Li Lihu? He maintained his movements, and did not dare to move, for fear that his will would not be strong, so he only strengthened his mind and said, "The girl came this time, do you have any instructions?" His tone softened involuntarily, and even he himself was taken aback.

Xue Yue was hugged by him like this, and his heart was like a deer, he lowered his eyes, was silent for a moment, and then said: "I came this time to tell you to beware of the coming of the gods." ”

The night breeze was light, with Xue Yue's soft green silk dancing, and the tips of his hair swept slightly on his face, adding to the charm. He snorted, and listened to Xue Yue continue: "Don't think that Shenye is just a little girl, so you despise her. The previous hall masters of the Fengrui Battalion are all capable people, and the gods are no exception. She is the princess of the Lingyue Dynasty in the southwest. The Lingyue Dynasty ruled the country with religion, and Shen Yelai was the only heir of their Protector God Cult. Don't look at her young age, but her qualifications are deep. Seven years ago, she joined the Heavenly Kings Gang with her art, and soon became the master of the Shadow Hall. This kid is quick-witted, has a unique vision, is good at dancing with long sleeves, dares to act, and under Gao Lan's suppression, he still dominates the Shadow Hall for several years without being invaded by Gao Lan, and is definitely a ruthless character. ”

Li Li felt a pang in her heart: "According to the girl, what are my chances of winning?" ”

Xue Yue pondered for a moment and said, "I haven't fought with her, so I don't know how her martial arts are." But the Lingyue Dynasty is located in the southwest, and the sect members are also good at raising Gu to make poison, what poisonous insects and poisonous beasts, in their eyes, are no different from cats and dogs. Since Shen Yelai is the heir of the Ling Yue Sect, these side ways are her forte. Don't think that the assassination of the Shadow Hall Si Tanmaru is limited to secretly ambushing and taking people's heads. If God wants to kill a person at night, it is not just this means. ”

She paused, and then said, "I heard that the Fengrui Battalion uses duel as a condition for promotion, so in the past five years, there must be many warriors who have challenged the gods and nights. Five years, even if you just hone the assassin's assassination skills, it is enough to perfect it. Although you are excellent at swordsmanship, you are inexperienced in facing the enemy. If you meet the gods in the night, it is really unknown who will kill the deer. She took out the Ziqing Tribulation from the burden and handed it to Li Li, "You don't have a divine weapon to protect you, so it's always inconvenient." It's better to carry this sword with you. ”

Li Li saw that she disregarded her own safety and came to deliver the sword in person, and her heart was moved. He unhooked the wind hook from his waist and showed it to her: "Don't worry, girl, I have obtained a sword from Qingfeng Hall, and it is also suitable." The relics of the ancestor should be kept by the girl. ”

When Xue Yue saw the wind hook, his eyes lit up: "This sword ...... It's the same as my snow and silence. ”

Li Li smiled: "Yes, this sword is called Fenggou." I heard that this sword is cast in the same mold as Tianxue Lonely, and it is like a god. ”

Xue Yue picked up the wind hook and stroked it for a long time. The wind hooks, the snow is silent...... She suddenly thought of her family heirloom martial arts "Wind and Snow Crazy Knife", his weapon and her own weapon name coincided, so fateful? Could it be that God arranged for him to miss Yang Yizhao, and he was also destined? She couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at the young man in front of her, although he was two or three years younger than herself, he was half a head taller than herself. Under the moonlight, I saw that his eyebrows were resolute and his smile was gentle, although he was not a peerless beautiful man, he also had a clear temperament and a cheerful atmosphere. Her heart suddenly jumped, and she hurriedly turned her eyes away, calmed her mind, and restrained her cranky thoughts.

Li Li saw that she suddenly looked different, she didn't know what she was thinking, and thought that she was too seriously injured, so she hurriedly said, "Girl, what's wrong with you?" Is the wound painful? ”

Xue Yue stabilized his mind, and then shook his head and said, "It's okay." She smiled slightly, "Since you have a sword to use, I'll keep it for you for a few more days." She put away the purple green tribulation and replied, "In addition to the background of the divine night, I have one more thing to remind you. ”

Li Li snorted: "Girl, please speak." ”

Xue Yue said in a low voice: "Gao Lan is bent on leaning towards the government and the opposition, but he is still fledgling, and he is temporarily dormant in order to recuperate. At first, when the Fengrui Camp was still in power for Lu Tianwang, the enemy of the land, Gao Lan worshiped under the door of Lu Tianwang and became a close disciple of Lu Tianwang. I heard my father say that at that time, King Lu Tian really cultivated him as an heir. But later, Lu Tianwang made a mistake and left the Tianwang Gang, and Gao Lan's promotion was also affected a little. ”

"In fact, with Gao Lan's strength, it is really more than enough to be a heavenly king. But the Xiao gang leader didn't know why, and he refused to fight for him. It was Gao Lan who held the Fengrui camp until now as the master of the martial arts hall. ”

"Originally, everyone thought that in time, the throne of the Western Heavenly King would belong to Gao Lan. But who knew that he came to insert this divine night, and with the blessing of the Xiao Gang Master, he settled in the Fengrui Camp and became the hall master of the Shadow Hall. From that day on, the situation in the Fengrui battalion became less clear. ”

"Gao Lan's attitude towards the night of God has always been neither good nor bad. But Shen Yelai relied on his strong background and looked down on Gao Lan. Although this has not disappeared, he has been long, and before he knew it, he had become Gao Lan's opponent for the Western Heavenly King. Moreover, Shen Yelai himself has great powers, not only does the helper treat her with blue eyes, but she is commensurate with her brother and sister, and even Cheng Che of Qingfeng Hall will be adopted by her. ”

When Li Li heard this, he couldn't help but interject: "Cheng Che? I've fought with Cheng Che and know him somewhat. He is a bright and upright person, how can he be mixed with such a strange person as God Yelai? ”

Xue Yue shook his head: "I don't know about this, there is no point in speculating, facts speak louder than words." I heard my father say that the current Fengrui camp is divided into two factions, one is Gao Lan and his cousin Yan Wuxuan, and the other is Shen Yelai and Cheng Che. ”

Li Li pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Yan Wuxuan has died at my hands, so isn't Gao Lan losing his arm and making it even more difficult to compete with Shenye?" ”

Xue Yue shook his head: "Not really. Among the remaining three hall masters in the Fengrui camp, Yan Wuxuan was indeed Gao Lan's first cronie, and his death did bring a heavy blow to Gao Lan. But if someone says that Cheng Che will completely ignore Gao Lan to stand still at night, I don't see it. Shen Yelai once said behind his back that Cheng Che did not enter the oil and salt, and he did have his fair side, and in a short period of time, he should not be particularly partial. In this way, Gao Lan and Shen Yelai will contain each other, and if Cheng Che holds it, someone can profit from it. ”

Li Li smiled: "Is the girl talking about me?" ”

Xue Yue couldn't help laughing: "You are really smart." If you become the King of the West in the future, I will not be surprised. She paused, "Your qualifications naturally can't be compared with Gao Lan and Shen Yelai." But fight Yelu Xiye alone, save ......" She wanted to say that she would save her from danger, but when the words came to her mouth, she couldn't help but feel shy, and she couldn't speak anymore, so she coughed and continued: "Another day of defeat for two hall masters. These two major events are enough to make your fame rise. Conservative estimates, in terms of fame, you have far surpassed Gao Lan and Shen Yelai. If it is said that when Gao Lan occupies the sky, and the gods come to occupy the land, then what you have is people. The three of you are in a position to stand out from each other, and if you fight alone, neither of you will be able to win against the other. But if two of them could have been aligned, the situation would have been very different. ”

Li Li listened to it for a long time, and he understood the reason, and smiled knowingly: "You mean the Sun-Liu Alliance, the Chibi fire burned Cao Agui?" ”

Xue Yue smiled: "It's really a pleasure to talk to smart people. To be honest, I think that although the gods are fierce, she is too young, and I don't think it is very likely that she will be promoted to the king. The name of the Western Heavenly King will still fall into Gao Lan's hands. And the witch hall left by Yan Wuxuan is bound to be handed over to the god who is proficient in the art of witch doctors. If you can join forces with Shenye, you can balance Gao Lan together. Then the gods will definitely be grateful to you, at least put some water in the duel, so that it will not be so difficult for you to win. Maybe one day, you will be on an equal footing with the gods and become the hall master. She stuffed the wind hook back into Li Li's hand, "Maybe one day, you can also become the king of the West?" ”

When Li Li heard this, she sincerely admired Xue Yue in her heart, and praised: "Listening to your words is better than reading for ten years." But I have another question for the girl, I don't know Shen Yelai, how can I let her know that I am sincere? ”

Xue Yue didn't expect the cold Mr. Yeli to praise her, and couldn't help blushing and smiling slightly: "It's ridiculous." I'm just a little older, so I can help you straighten out your mind. How to implement it and how to achieve it depends on you. With all due respect, you have no background in the gang now, and if no one helps you, it will be even more difficult for you to succeed. She thought for a moment, "Maybe...... Your little leaves can help you. You might as well communicate with her more, maybe you can have ideas? ”

Li Li was stunned: "Little leaf? ”

Xue Yue nodded slightly: "En." I'm speculating as well. After all, she is quite favored by the helper in Shanglingyan, and she is also clever and wise, so she may be of help to you. When she saw Li Li hear Xiao Yezi's name, her eyes were full of brilliance, which made her remember all the comparisons between Xiao Yezi and herself, and she felt a little uneasy in her heart. She reached out and straightened her sideburns, looked up at the starry sky, and sighed.

Li Li never thought that Xue Yue would suddenly become depressed, and couldn't help but feel concerned. He just wanted to ask, but he saw Xue Yue looking back and happened to look at him.

Maybe it's the atmosphere that's too good, maybe he's too grateful after being cared for, maybe it's machismo. Li Li's heart fluctuated, and an impulse that had never been felt before welled up in his chest, and he asked softly, "You...... Why did you come to me? ”

Xue Yue lowered her head, she wanted to ask Li Li to take care of Cloud City, but as soon as she touched Li Li's sincere and eager eyes, her heart softened. She had to lower her head and smile indifferently: "Maybe it's in my heart, I hope you can complete my unfinished dream." She pursed her lips and said with a smile: "There are not many people in the world who are persistent in love, but there are enough people who regret it like me." ”

Li Li's heart was soft, and he comforted in a low voice: "Although it is a pity today, it may not be in the future." ”

Xue Yue was comforted by his gentle words, and his heart was also warm, and he smiled: "Take care." Before she could speak, her figure flickered and disappeared into the night.

Li Li looked at her back, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she said silently: "Goodbye." ”
