Chapter 71 War clouds are thick
After a long time, the volcano gradually stopped erupting, and the two of them lay side by side on the bed, both tired and dying, and they didn't know how many times they had to fight. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Night Hitomi leaned her head into the crook of Thousand Nights' arms, and ran her fingers at his sculptural pectoral muscles, his eyes gentle as water.
The full moon hung high in the night sky, and the moonlight shone quietly on them through the leaves and through the windows, making them look particularly peaceful and warm. Qianye only felt the indescribable peace and relaxation at the moment, sleepiness came to him, and his eyes were like a thousand weights, and he wanted to fall asleep.
The night pupil was not sleepy at all, and called softly: "Thousand nights." ā
"Huh?"
"We already have a home, don't we?"
"Of course. ā
ā...... Well. ā
Qianye couldn't support it anymore and fell asleep in a daze. The corners of the night pupil's mouth pursed, and her little head arched, putting herself in a more comfortable position, quietly thinking about her thoughts.
In the early morning of the Empire, the Eternal Night Continent was still dark, several upper continents blocked the sunlight, and only the edge of the sky could see a glimmer of bright morning light.
However, the work and rest time of the land occupied by the human race has always followed the imperial capital of the upper continent, so at this time, Qi Shao has already come to visit.
Or Ye Tong went downstairs first, opened the courtyard door, and let Song Zining into the living room. Song Zining didn't come alone, he was followed by Nanhua. Before going downstairs, Ye Tong had already put on Lu Ju's mask, and she restrained her breath, looking like a young girl with ordinary strength.
Nanhua made no secret of his curiosity, staring at the night pupil left and right.
She has a close relationship with Song Zining, and she also knows a little about Qianye, and she has fought side by side, but the more she knows, the more mysterious he is.
Qianye's combat power has increased rapidly, and it will reach a new realm almost every once in a while, and even Song Zining, who loves and worships both in Nanhua's mind, admits that he is inferior to him. On the other hand, Qianye's appearance has long had the unique handsomeness of the upper-level blood clan, integrating hardness and softness, even most of the so-called beauties are far inferior.
In addition to not being good at words and not very sociable, in Nanhua's heart, Qianye is almost flawless. She occasionally thinks about what kind of girl such a man will find by his side.
Nanhua herself has outstanding sisters, and she once mentioned to Song Zining that she wanted to ask them to come over and try to get along with Qianye, but her request was politely rejected by Song Zining, and it seems that Qianye already has a sweetheart. At that time, she was curious about what kind of extraordinary woman she would be.
Now that a thousand nights have returned, there is suddenly a young girl next to her, and they live together in a grand manner, it would be strange to say that Nanhua would not be curious. So when she got up early in the morning, she heard that Song Zining was going to come to Qianye for breakfast, so she immediately followed.
After seeing the night pupil, the curiosity in Nanhua's heart increased instead of decreasing. Judging from her aura, this black-haired and black-eyed girl has extremely limited combat power, at most eight or nine levels. Although for the tens of millions of cultivators in the empire, most of them would not be able to break through the generals in their lifetime, being able to reach the eighth or ninth level was already the peak of ordinary people. But Chiya is no ordinary person.
In this world where strength is respected, young powerhouses like Qianye and Song Zining, who are rising into the sky and moving the empire, can stand beside them, if they are not proud of their family background, they must have considerable strength, otherwise they will always look like they don't match.
Night Hitomi's current appearance is just delicate and lovely, after all, Qianye and her original intention were to be as low-key as possible, too amazing, even comparable to the original appearance, will only cause trouble, but meaningless.
But there is a strange temperament on the night pupil, her eyes are calm and deep, as if she contains a whole world. Somehow, Nanhua was a little ashamed of himself, and involuntarily sat up straight, and inexplicably began to get nervous, and couldn't ask any questions full of questions.
Song Zining acted freely, as if he had arrived at his own home, chatting with Yetong about the recent events of the empire, and soon the two talked eagerly. Nanhua listened very strangely to the side, because Song Zining used to talk about some ups and downs when facing beautiful women, and he was very talented, eating, drinking and having fun, so he could naturally say that he was full of flowers.
However, now he is talking about major military affairs, most of which are bloody battles and the topic of the Sleeping of the Beast, especially several battles personally commanded by Song Zining, which are very detailed, and copying it is simply a detailed battle report. Night Hitomi is obviously very interested in these topics, and occasionally interjects to ask, all to the point. Just a few questions shocked Nanhua at her talent in the war.
And what puzzled Nanhua was that Song Zining chatted with Yetong as if they were treating equal partners, which was not like Qishao's attitude towards women.
At this time, Qianye walked down from the upper floor, and Song Zining immediately shouted: "Qianye! Go cook, we are all hungry!"
Qianye was stunned, and then glared at Song Zining fiercely, "Didn't you bring a whole class of cooks from the empire over? Why did you come to me early in the morning to eat!"
Song Zining said as a matter of course: "How can the cooks make you delicious! Go to work!"
Qianye was willing to give in, "You haven't eaten the food I cooked, how do you know that what I cook is delicious?"
"I smelled the smell of your cooking last night, and I didn't bother you all night, and I only came to eat in the morning, which is worthy of you!
While speaking, Song Zining jumped up, pushed and shoved, and forcibly sent Qianye into the kitchen.
Qianye suddenly remembered something and exclaimed, "Wait! You said you smelled my cooking last night? What's going on?"
"Where there are trees, there are leaves. After saying this, Song Zining slammed the kitchen door shut and locked Qianye in the kitchen.
After a while, Qianye sorted out a sumptuous breakfast, just staring at Song Zining's eyes sharp, obviously murderous. Song Zining was afraid of him, just pretended not to see it.
Smelling the aroma, Nanhua suddenly cheered, bounced out of the sofa, and rushed into the restaurant. Song Zining followed closely behind, and sat down at the table without concessions, just waiting for a big battle.
The four of them swept away the wind and clouds, and cleaned up the table full of food in an instant, and even the night pupil was not reserved. Everyone is strong, and they are quick and ruthless, and they can't get anything if they hesitate a little.
After breakfast, Song Zining could not escape the bad luck, and was caught by Qianye to wash the dishes, leaving Ye Tong and Nanhua in the living room, chatting without a word.
Two characters who dominate in the bloody battle are not so easy to deal with a bunch of dishes. While working, Song Zining said, "Qianye, what are you going to do next?
"Well, it is said that if you accumulate enough military merits, you can exchange it for an imperial amnesty. ā
Song Zining naturally knew why Qianye wanted an amnesty, he was silent for a moment, and only asked, "Then you are still ready to continue to fight for Zhao Valve?"
"I haven't thought about it yet, but it depends on the situation and opportunities. When I came to Blackstream City, Youguo Gong asked me to go back in ten days. ā
Song Zining hesitated for a moment and said, "If you want military merits, you do have an opportunity recently." I've just received word that the Empire is preparing to fight the Council of the Eternal Night in the Sleep of the Behemoths. ā
Qianye was surprised: "The Great War? The battle for the Ancient Essence Fragment is over, what else do you want to fight?"
"To fight for the entrance to the Behemoth's Sleep. Haven't you been to Sleep of the Behemoth, and what is the environment like inside?"
Qianye said as he thought about it, "There is a void passage at the end of the Sleep of the Behemoth, which leads to another world, and it looks like a flying land in the void. The inside is very large, and the environment is very strange, and there is a large forest in the trunk of the tree full of raw juice, which is of great value. Could it be that the Empire is waging war to fight for this forest?"
Song Zining shook his head and said, "I don't know, I only know that this war is related to the location of that flying land." And the level of mobilization for war is very high. He put down the bowl in his hand, looked at Qianye, frowned, and said, "This war is very strong, but it is also very dangerous. In fact, I wouldn't recommend you get involved too much. ā
Qianye said calmly: "I have thought it clearly, but I need enough military merit to exchange for the empire's amnesty, which is related to the safety of the night pupil, otherwise I will not be at ease." So no matter what, I'll keep fighting. ā
Song Zining was silent for a while, and said, "Amnesty ......" But he didn't say any more, just nodded and said, "Okay, then we'll go back to the imperial camp together in two days." Then, take care of yourself, but don't die. ā
Qianye glanced into the living room and said, "Don't worry." ā
At this moment, it is the interval between the great battles, and the exploration of the sleep of the giant beast is not completely over, and some people on each side have not yet returned. The two factions will also need time to assess the rewards of exploration, as well as the value of the passage to Sleep of Behemoths. Therefore, the battlefield remained calm.
On the side of the Eternal Night, tribes have begun to evacuate one after another, and according to the practice of this kind of exploratory warfare in the past, since the ancient essence under the sleep of the giant beast has been divided, then the war is basically over. As for the territory, the Eternal Night Continent is poor in resources, and both the Dark Force and the Dawn Force are thinner than the upper continents, and they are basically used as temporary battlefields by both sides, and there is no idea of long-term occupation.
However, the opposite is true on the Empire's side. When Qianye and Song Zining returned to the imperial camp, the atmosphere was not relaxed, the camp was full of slaughter, new armies were coming in a steady stream, and a group of floating warships were approaching rapidly in the distance.
This scene caught his eyes, and Qianye knew that as Song Zining said, the empire not only did not plan to withdraw its troops, but instead increased its troops on a large scale and prepared for a big war.
However, Qianye also has doubts, the current imperial forces have an advantage, and reinforcements are still coming, but the victory or defeat of a large-scale war has never depended on ordinary troops, especially now that the Heavenly King and the Great King are in charge, the outcome of the war actually depends on the battle of those peak powerhouses.
At present, there are two monarchs, Medanzo and Loxa, opposite the sleep of the giant beast, even if Zhang Boqian is amazing, after all, the new heavenly king, with one enemy and two victories, it is really not very good. What's more, the origin of this war is special, although the Queen of Night and the Eternal Flame are fighting against the Heavenly Ghost in the Void, they can be regarded as participating in the war, even if Zhang Boqian can really win the two Dark Lords, the Queen of Night will return from the Void at any time, what should happen then?
Regarding this, Song Zining also couldn't figure it out. However, he had other ideas, since the empire had made a heavy bet, it must be prepared. It's just that what is behind is top secret.
After returning to the imperial camp, Song Zining went to his staff headquarters, while Qianye returned to the Zhao valve camp and found that Zhao had also transferred additional troops from the Western Continent, which showed that the empire was bound to win the next big war.
Opposite the Behemoth's Sleep, in the towering castle in the center of the Eternal Night Front, Medanzo and Loxa put aside their prejudices for a moment and stood side by side, looking at the Imperial camp from afar.
