Chapter 51: The Tribulation of Fate (I)
Nie Yan was so smart, he naturally understood what Emperor Tong meant.
To put it simply, the enemy is coming soon.
Thinking of this, Nie Yan turned around and galloped quickly in the direction of the gate, and Emperor Tong seemed to follow behind him unhurriedly, but in fact he was not half a point behind Nie Yan.
This was the first time in a few hours that he had seen Nie Yan show his true skills, and he couldn't help but feel agitated, especially Nalan Shi, who was about to jump up with excitement.
Almost without thinking about it, you have to follow the past.
But Nie Yan's voice came from afar: "You just stay at home, and no one is allowed to come with you." Mei Han, call all my Nie family back to the house, and wait for me to come back. β
Nie Yan's words, how dare he not listen, although he wanted to keep up very much, but he still didn't dare to go beyond it.
The official road outside the town.
In the cold of this early winter, it seems extremely deserted.
Thinking that it has passed the season of frequent trade, and it is such a cold weather, who would choose to leave home?
Nie Yan was standing in the middle of the official road, his chest rising and falling, and the wind blowing his cloak didn't seem to cool a few drops of hot sweat on his forehead.
From knowing the news to now, but in less than the time for tea, Nie Yan has already traveled from his home, through the entire town, to the only gate, the official road.
Even if he is skillful, at such a speed, he will feel slightly panting.
The enemy came to the door, which was something he had never thought about, and his first reaction was that he couldn't stay at home and affect his family.
And the only way is to intercept people on this official road before they come to the door.
It wasn't until Nie Yan stood in this official road for a few minutes that the figure of Emperor Tong Shi arrived, compared to Nie Yan's previous slight panting, he seemed much calmer and calmer.
"I haven't seen you for a few years, but Nie Shao's body is good." Before the person arrived, the sound came first.
Nie Yan didn't answer, the body method that Emperor Tong was referring to was naturally the body method without using any spells, in fact, for demon hunters, the effect was small, after all, in the face of demons, what was the use of this ordinary body method?
"How did you find out that I settled in Shudi?" At this time, Nie Yan's breath had stabilized, and when Emperor Tong stood beside him, he spoke.
This is the biggest doubt in his heart, he has always been cautious, and now not only does the Tong Emperor know where he is located, but even a so-called great enemy he doesn't know can find him? Why is that?
"Nie Shao is a master of art and bold, and he will not take too much precautions against the many spells in this world. However, if there is a heart to find you, according to a little clue, you can find it, don't you know? "Emperor Tong's expression was faint, and he seemed to feel that the question Nie Yan asked was a bit of an idiot.
But Nie Yan was shocked in his heart, so that his whole body suddenly felt cold.
It's because he himself is too stupid, he has been hunting demons for a few years, and he has almost forgotten that the rivers and lakes he is in are not the rivers and lakes of ordinary people, but the rivers and lakes of cultivation.
The ability of demon hunters is basically based on attack techniques, but among the cultivators, there are not a few people who are proficient in divination and deduction.
Even among the demon clans, there are special races that are good at this, not to mention one or two monsters who are good at divination by chance.
It may be difficult for them to calculate their specific whereabouts at any time, and no one is willing to pay a huge price just to know their whereabouts in detail, after all, divination is 'dead', people are alive, and by the time they arrive, they may have left.
But figuring out where you are staying is not that difficult.
Thinking of this, Nie Yan's expression changed, but Emperor Tong seemed to have discovered something funny: "Nie Yan, I'm really curious about how you survived until now?" Could it be that the ability is already so great that there are no taboos? β
This is naturally not, it is okay to say that it is luck, it is okay to say that Nie Yan is from 'mysterious', and it is okay to devote himself to this world as if there is no cause and effect.
In short, in the past few years, not only Nie Yan, but also a few small stability, have to thank God.
Nie Yan couldn't argue, and after being silent for a long time, he said, "So, you came to me on purpose?" β
"There must be a battle between me and you. But this time I really didn't come to you on purpose, speaking of which, just to track him, I found out where you are. As he spoke, Emperor Tong suddenly raised his hand and pointed into the distance.
Following the direction pointed by Emperor Tong, as far as Nie Yan could see, he could already see a sedan chair coming towards the town from afar in the light wind and drizzle.
The sedan man's feet were very fast, and he saw that he was still far away before, and he could only see a shadow vaguely, but in the blink of an eye, he had already moved forward dozens of meters, and he was getting closer and closer to Nie Yan and Emperor Tong.
"The person in the sedan chair, if you talk about identity, is very good. Killing him will definitely cause a shocking disaster, and ordinary demon hunters, regardless of whether they can kill him or not, even if it is barely feasible, they will definitely not dare to make a move. Emperor Tong said slowly, word by word.
Nie Yan's expression didn't change at all, but as the sedan chair approached, the trick in his hand changed, and he slowly narrowed his eyes.
Before, he had noticed the demonic energy, in order to see more clearly, he used a spell to infuse soul power into his eyes, and naturally he could see clearly, where are the four people who carry the sedan chair, it is clearly the four bear demons!
The fierce beast is transformed into a demon, and it must be much more powerful than any rabbit demon or rat demon.
And the bear demon was originally considered one of the most difficult monsters to deal with because of its fierceness and strength.
The person who came was so generous that it turned out to be four bear demons carrying a sedan chair for him.
It's even more blatant, arrogant, as a monster, he dares to swagger through the market like this, no matter what, this world is still the world of people, and the demon wants to save zΓ i, but also can only live in a corner, hiding in the deep mountains and Daze.
It doesn't matter if it's fair, that's what God means.
At this time, Emperor Tong spoke again: "What I said, you must already know it. In short, I don't have any scruples, but you? β
He seemed to be deliberately instigating Nie Yan, how could Nie Yan not hear it? But he smiled faintly, and his hand was lightly placed on the hilt of the sword, for several years he had become accustomed to the sword not leaving his body, and the action of putting his hand on the hilt of the sword, those who were familiar with him, should know that this was the expression that he already had a fighting spirit.
"Demon hunters and demon hunters are originally a matter of course. If you are afraid of a catastrophe, why should you be a demon hunter? "The clouds are light and the wind is light, it is already Nie Yan's answer to Emperor Tong.
"Okay." Emperor Tong whispered, and also turned to look in the direction where the sedan chair was coming, but said again: "Then, it depends on you and me, who can kill the person in the sedan chair first." β
During the conversation, the sedan chair had already passed a distance of one hundred and eighty meters, and it was only one or twenty meters away from Nie Yan and Emperor Tong.
Nie Yan had already withdrawn the spell of his eyes, and just by feeling, he had already smelled the demonic aura that rushed to the sky, the closer he got to it, the more obvious it became, almost becoming a substance, even the rain in front of him seemed to be vaguely shrouded in a faint layer of black, and the sky was even more dark clouds, just like clouds that can only be found in a summer rainstorm.
The wind suddenly became stronger.
Nie Yan's shirt was blown by the wind, and the hem of Emperor Tong's dusty white clothes was also blown up greatly.
Originally, Emperor Tong was controlling the raindrops, and the rain did not touch his body, and at this time, he couldn't care about that much, and suddenly stopped the sedan chair in front of him with full attention, and let the rain fall on his body.
Yes, the sedan chair stopped less than ten meters in front of Nie Yan and Emperor Tong.
A few sedan chairmen who seemed to be a little more fierce than ordinary people were looking at Emperor Tong and Nie Yan with ill will.
The person in the sedan chair did not move at all, even the curtain in front of the sedan chair did not have the slightest intention of opening, Nie Yan and Emperor Tong did not have half a point to investigate his meaning, Emperor Tong didn't know what to think, but Nie Yan had tried it before, this sedan chair was probably something strange, with his means to probe, what he could see was only a blur, and he couldn't detect anything at all.
"You two really have the guts to dare to stop my master's sedan chair." After a few seconds of confrontation, a palanquin driver spoke.
The tone was low, the tone was fierce, and when he spoke, the eyes were vicious as if he wanted to swallow the two people in front of him.
What's weird is his accent, it doesn't seem to be familiar with human language, it sounds awkward, it doesn't look like a dialect anywhere, and it doesn't look like a formal official dialect.
A bear demon shouted at himself, Nie Yan felt a little mocking, and his hand holding the sword tightened.
However, Emperor Tong glanced at the sedan chair man arrogantly: "Intercepting other people's sedan chairs is naturally not a fair and upright act. But this is a matter between people, and the things in this world are getting more and more funny, and a few bears swaggered away and didn't say it, but also came to blame people? Have you forgotten that this is people's territory and people's world? β
Emperor Tong's few words have basically clarified the identity of the bear demon.
Sure enough, as soon as the words fell, the fierce palanquin man's expression changed, and he looked like he was about to do it, but he seemed to be taboo about something, so he couldn't help it, but his eyes were gloomy, and he said viciously: "It seems that you two are demon hunters, right?" I would like to advise you, don't put your life on the line for the sake of that fame. In this world, there are no more than ten demon hunters who dare to stop my master's palanquin. If you don't have that ability, if you leave an arm, you will retreat early, and this matter will be over, and if you provoke my master to be angry, it will be a small life. β
"Haha." Emperor Tong suddenly burst out laughing.
Nie Yan didn't laugh, but as soon as he raised his hand, the sword was already unsheathed.
In fact, whether it was Nie Yan or Emperor Tong, they had no intention of making a move on the official road, but the bear demon was too arrogant to speak.
How can such a proud second son endure such a tone? Almost a tacit understanding, the two were ready to make a move.
Seeing that the two of them not only did not retreat, but wanted to make a move, the bear demons also took a step forward, and seeing that a battle was about to break out, a sunny voice suddenly came out of the sedan chair: "I traveled this time, originally just to accompany my fiancΓ©e to enjoy the mountains and rivers." When I come here, I just want to taste the food of this place, and I will meet someone who is bound to meet for a while. If you don't want to start the killing ring, you and the other two had better listen to what my servant said, leave one arm, and retreat. Why not? β
"Otherwise, it is not only your two lives that will be implicated, but also the people of this town."
Speaking of the last sentence, the tone of the person in the sedan car had suddenly turned cold.
