In the palace, in the golden corridors, Minister Earnest walked to the court step by step with his hands behind his back, stepping on the expensive red velvet carpet. He kept his head down, his face gloomy. His brows were tightly locked, as if he had thought of something, and there was a bit of gloom in his eyes. The guards in the palace all avoided it when they saw this, for fear that they would accidentally become the target of the minister's anger

Earnest rolled his eyes and swept the doors of the hallway, and a few pairs of peeping eyes in the cracks of the doors hurriedly retracted after meeting the minister's eyes, as if it was not a person outside, but a monster that chose to devour people. Earnest sneered, he enjoyed the feeling of being feared, although now his power still came from the emperor's trust, but soon, he didn't need to continue to cover up

"Chancellor"

Directly in front of the hallway is a hallway, which is connected by an arch that allows only one to walk through. Because behind the hall is the court hall where the emperor and many courtiers deliberate, so when the original designer built it, he estimated the height and narrowness of the arch. The narrow arch required only four strong royal guards to keep out any Assassin who tried to enter the court to assassinate. At this point, Earnest found himself blocked by a man

He looked up and saw a middle-aged man in a red robe and tightly armored standing in front of the arch. He had a resolute countenance, and the sharp edges and corners of his face made him look like he had been carved out of stone, silent but determined. The sturdy body is telling others how powerful he is. There are only three people in the palace who dare to block Minister Earnest, one of whom has already left the imperial capital, and the rest, except for the emperor, is only this man

"General Bud," Minister Earnest spoke slowly, sweeping away the gloom on his face and replacing it with a standard smile. He clenched his fist with one hand, covered his mouth, and coughed lightly, "General, don't come unharmed, I'm about to meet Your Majesty."

Seeing that Bud didn't move at all, Earnest changed into a worried look again, stroked his beard, and his tone made people feel that this must be a person who worries about the country and the people, "Recently, thieves have been rampant in the imperial capital, and my relatives have also been poisoned by them, not only that, but they are also in contact with the rebels in the south of the activity, and they should cooperate with each other, before I asked Your Majesty to urgently order General Estes to return and clean up the evil party near the imperial capital, but General Estes has not returned yet, I need to let Your Majesty know about this matter so that I can make a correct judgment"

Bud narrowed his eyes at Ornest, closed his eyes in contemplation, and stepped slightly sideways to open the arch.

The Chancellor let out a sneer and paced into the archway. Bud leaned against the wall with his hands on his chest, his eyes closed, but as Earnest walked to his side, the general suddenly spoke

"Military generals, you should not dictate the politics of the empire...... The general's family has been educating future generations in this way," Bude's voice was low and depressed, but in this situation, I can't sit idly by. After the annihilation of the rebels, it seems necessary to eradicate the root causes of the disturbance of the country's security, whether he is ...... What people"

"Oh oh ~ it's terrible" has been in the court for many years, of course Earnest can hear the hostility and warning in Bude's tone, he took out a steak and took a hard bite, "Although I don't know who is going to do this, but in my opinion, he had better prepare for the future in advance"

Bude opened his eyes suddenly, his eyes slanted at the minister, his serious face made him look not angry and arrogant, if he was an ordinary person, he would have been frightened by the aura of the general, but Minister Ornest still looked back at Bude with an indifferent chuckle on his face, and for a while, a chill filled the air

At the same time, the small island south of the imperial capital is in shambles. The downed trees fell scattered on the potholed ground, the out-of-season ice slag was spread on the ground layer after layer, the coast in some places was replaced by huge waves formed by frost condensation, the corpses of some unlucky animals and dangerous species were scattered everywhere, and in other places, many of the fallen trees were still burning with flames, igniting the surrounding weeds, burning sparsely, just looking at the scene, it is easy to make people imagine whether this place has just been covered by human fire

And the two people who caused all this were standing on the beach panting. However, if you look at what is on the beach, it is better to call it an ice beach than a beach, and the sea is no longer hitting the sand, but a dense slag of ice

Qiu Chen sat on the ground with one hand propped back, took two deep breaths, pressed back the restless black light virus, and looked up at Estes on the side. If he hadn't stopped just now, I'm afraid he would have been unable to suppress the black light virus and become an evil god. Qiu Chen has not fully recovered, and the power of the evil god is not yet something he can control, not to mention, Estes is not a great enemy like Cthulhu, so there is no need to do this

Compared to Autumn Dust, Estes can still stand. She straightened her hat to keep her serious, but the torn holes in her legs, abdomen, and gloves in her white uniform revealed her snow-white skin, making it difficult for her to maintain a cold image any longer. Her spandexter was also chipped, and it was estimated that it would be difficult to continue using it without a craftsman to repair it

"Have you fought enough, you can stop" Qiuchen wiped the water on his forehead, this was definitely not sweat, it was probably the seawater that stuck to the sea during the battle on the sea surface or the liquid after some crushed ice slag had melted. He originally wanted Estes to retreat, but who knew that after seeing Qiuchen's power, Estes was even more excited, and as a result, the fight really went from noon to evening

Even the battle with Cthulhu didn't last that long!

Qiuchen sighed, sure enough, he couldn't think about a battle maniac with the thinking of a normal person

Estes raised her head, the corners of her mouth curled slightly, and raised her thin sword with a notch to point at Qiu Chen, but her tone was no longer cold, but hot, "Go on, I'm going to use my stunt to ravage. you! ”

"Next time, if you hit me again, I will withdraw directly" Qiuchen pursed his lips and stretched out a finger, "Trust me, if I don't want you to find me, you will never find out where I am"

"Next time," Estes chewed on the word, "when will it be the next time, when the rebels will enter the imperial capital, or will I hang all the leaders of the rebels?" ”

Qiuchen snorted and shrugged, "Maybe it's the day after tomorrow, who knows~"

Estes was silent for a moment, and slashed the ground with the tip of his rappier, "Very good, I will come to you again the day after tomorrow, during which I will have the members of the hunter keep an eye on you around the clock, and if you dare to escape, I will immediately throw you into the dungeon!" ”

“……”

Why did you say something casually, the day after tomorrow! I should have said that just now. A year later, the decisive battle for the top of the Forbidden City. Let's delay it for a while, regardless of whether there will be Ye Gucheng and Ximen Fuxue coming here to compete in a sword after a year, Qiuchen will not know where to go by then. I know everything! But why did you just say it casually......

Is this a digging hole to bury yourself?

"Forget it, it's up to you" Qiuchen sighed and stood up. Suddenly, as if he had noticed something, his eyebrows curled, and he held out his hand to Estes

Estes looked at Qiuchen's outstretched arm suspiciously, "Do you still want to continue?"

“…… I just want to take you back to the imperial capital."

Ai Wen is back
