Chapter 68: The Baptism of the High Priest

The top of the Spirit Peak, the Guardian Shrine, is in shambles on the road to the Ancestral Tomb, and in the center of this avenue, a fierce battle is going on.

The owl swallowed his saliva, and in front of him, the huge mouth of the submarine dragon almost swallowed his whole body, and next to him sat a woman who was also disgraced, only the man in front of him was kneeling on one knee, holding something in his hand.

It was a jade waist plate, on which were delicately carved patterns, and from a closer look, it was clearly clear that it was a dark green giant tortoise, the head and back armor were full of jagged sharp cones, and the carving from head to tail outlined a perfect image, the whole giant tortoise was lifelike, and at first glance it was written by a master.

At this time, it was the waist card that stopped the submarine dragon from closing the giant mouth, and Nightblade's eyes widened and stared at the waist card without blinking.

"Is it a family crest, are those three people the general's retainers?" Night Wind also stared at the waist card, muttering to himself.

"What kind of family crest, general, who??" Nightfire was confused when he heard it, and asked questions again and again, but did not see Nightwind answer.

The submarine dragon slowly closed its mouth, and slowly moved backwards until it touched the body of the night blade, and the huge body instantly merged into the shadow under his feet as if it had been sucked away, and immediately after, the black shadow surged, and the shadow of the swift dragon appeared in front of the three of them uninvited, mixed with a yin wind.

Looking at the waist card in front of him, Xunlong's face showed a human-like evil smile, it slowly got up, and slowly shuttled around the three people, every time it passed a person, it caused that person to shiver.

"Raise your head and speak. Nightblade sheathed it back and looked at the man and spoke.

"Yes!" The man hurriedly raised his head when he heard the voice, not daring to look at the night blade, he stayed on the ground and said respectfully: "My lord, the three of us are samurai who belong to the Guardian Shrine, and we were ordered to guard the shrine here.

"Who is your master?, the woman in the stand?" Hearing this, the night man couldn't help but let out a cold snort, and couldn't help but move his eyes to the high priest in the attic.

As soon as these words came out, everyone changed color, who didn't know that this Imperial Shrine was the residence of the Great Priest, and who didn't know that the power of the Great Priest was above everything, and how could it not be shocking that a small hunter of the Night Blade dared to speak such a wild speech.

Night Wind is even more anxious at this moment, Night Blade and the shrine have always been at odds, but it is just a little reluctant to associate with the shrine, and he has never shown such arrogance, and he will be severely punished for despising the majesty of the priest.

"His sanity was not out of order. Above the attic, the Grand Priest muttered to himself.

"It's natural, and it doesn't have the effect of confusing people's minds. Lan opened his mouth to respond.

The two of them were silent at the same time, and then, Lan opened his mouth and said respectfully, "Lord Priest, he has begun to despise your majesty, is this really good?"

The High Priest's eyes were always fixed on Nightblade, and after a long time, she slowly spoke, "Don't worry, every child rebels sometimes, and I will eventually lead him back to the right path. ”

Hearing this, the two girls lowered their heads at the same time and said no more.

"Go, the trial is over, go and get ready for baptism, for that beautiful girl. After another deep look at Nightblade, the archpriest turned away, and the two maidens followed him.

"Samurai, I'm asking you, who is your master?" Nightblade's tone turned cold, and his gaze at the man had begun to change.

Beads of sweat flowed from the man's forehead, and in the next second, the fierce head of the swift dragon appeared in front of him!

"Of course your Excellency, whether it was, is and will be, we are all the retainers of the Lord, and this has never changed!" the man did not dare to hesitate any longer, buried his head deeply and said loudly.

"Tell your name, samurai. The expression on Nightblade's face finally softened, and his tone returned to his former state.

"Yes, the subordinate is named Yue, they are Sakura and Xiao, they are all subordinate brothers and sisters. The man hurriedly replied.

"Owl?" Nightblade's eyes narrowed, and after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly spoke, "Not long ago, you tried to assassinate me. ”

As soon as these words came out, the owl trembled all over, and he stammered out half a word.

Seeing that the eyes of the Night Blade revealed a cold light, and his right hand had already put on the hilt of the dragon sword, Yue was so anxious that he hurriedly ran to the front of the owl and prostrated himself on the ground and said loudly: "My lord! My little brother doesn't know the depths, and he unintentionally collided with the adult! It is really an unforgivable sin! But he is still too young! Please ......spare him for his loyal duty to guard the shrine."

"Shut up, who do you think you are, how dare you talk to me like that!" Nightblade was furious! The eyeshadow on his eyes looked terrifying!

"Please forgive! I beg for your pardon!" Yue was still begging for mercy, burying his face deeply on the ground and not daring to get up.

"It's just a little light, you dare to hit me again and again!" Nightblade's eyes completely froze, and his right hand slowly drew out a piece of the blade.

But at this moment, a hand pressed his right hand, and the voice of the night wind came from behind the night blade: "Night blade, put down the knife, don't let the outside force change your original intention." ”

"Boom"

Nightblade's head suddenly roared, and his body swayed, and his feet were even more unstable, if it weren't for the help of the night wind, he almost fell to the ground.

"Ah......h

"Night fire. Nightwind turned his head to summon the Night Fire, handed the Nightblade into his hand, turned to the three people who were kneeling on the ground, and said, "Lead the way." ”

Yue didn't dare to hold it up, although he didn't look at the night wind in his eyes, but he was afraid of the night blade in his heart, so he didn't say anything more, and immediately got up and made a 'please' gesture.

There was only a short distance left from the cave, and the royal warriors along the way all retreated to the side under the waist card in Yue's hand, and Night Wind walked behind the three of them, supported by Night Blade, and Night Feather and Night Moon followed closely.

At this moment, Xiao Yue's heart was a little worried, Night Blade's expression was obviously uncomfortable, and she even had to be supported by the night fire when she walked, but she couldn't do anything now, which made her feel powerless, as if she had become a drag on everyone again.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a sense of not admitting defeat welling up in her heart, and this force drove her to let go of Night Feather's arm and run to the front.

"Satsuki!" Nightblade felt Satsuki walk past him, but his eyes still couldn't open, and he couldn't help but shout anxiously, "Come back!"

"Whew!" the shadow of the dragon appeared silently in front of Satsuki, sticking out his tongue and pulling it to his mouth, revealing an evil smile.

"It's okay, let her go, you can't keep her by your side for the rest of your life. Nightfeather stepped forward and whispered in Nightblade's ear.

"Yes, boss, don't worry about that girl, you didn't see that she wasn't frightened by evil when she went up the mountain. Nightfire chimed in.

When the night man heard this, he said no more, and slowly lowered his arm, and the shadow of the swift dragon snorted boredly and walked to the side.

Looking at Xiao Yue beside him, the night wind cast an appreciative look, and the gate of the ancestral mound was finally close in front of him.

At the entrance of the huge cave was a heavy stone door that opened automatically when everyone arrived, and the moment everyone stepped through the gate, countless torches were lit at the same time, turning the originally dark cave into a bright light.

It was a hollowed-out mountain, and the space inside was wider than expected, even the size of two Yuyun farms.

And in the corners of the cave, there were piles of miscellaneous debris, which, at a glance, were nothing more than a pile of broken copper tiles, but on closer inspection, it was a broken piece of construction, as well as scrolls and other utensils that had never been seen before.

Yeyue was instantly fascinated by everything here, she discovered something that no one else had discovered, the entire cave walls, and even the cave roof were densely engraved with paragraph after paragraph, needless to say, she knew that everything was here.

Suddenly, her steps stopped, and she saw ahead, in the center of the cave, a huge and magnificent statue standing, surrounded by countless gold, silver and jewels, but the dazzling jewels could not be compared at all.

It was a statue of a man, a burly and sturdy man, with long hair in a shawl exuding a little black light, a resolute face revealing an extremely confident look, a sword at his waist, and a roll of bamboo slips was firmly grasped in his hand, the whole statue was lifelike, it must have come from the hands of a divine craftsman.

"It's ...... Aragami?!"

Night Moon let out an exclamation from her mouth, if she remembered correctly, the statue in front of her was the legendary Aragami, the founder of Xia Lan!

"Yes, this is the ancestor of Xia Lan, the Aragami in your mouth. ”

In the exclamation of the night moon, the great priest came out of nowhere, stood under the statue and spoke.

"Your Excellency. ”

"Ancestor!"

Everyone fell to one knee at the same time, and their mouths invariably uttered pious voices, but the subjects were different.

Yue woke up as soon as he finished speaking, and hurriedly went to look at Nightblade, until he saw Nightblade sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.

"Night Moon, come to the front. The great priest said slowly, and Xiao Yue didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down on one knee.

"Show me, Nightblade's gift to you. The eyes of the great priest were fixed on Xiao Yue, and if Ye Yue saw it at this time, she would definitely be extremely shocked, because in her eyes, there was an incomparably deep ghostly light, as if she could see the starry sky in the sky and the vast ocean.

Satsuki took the Silver Moon certificate from her neck and handed it to the Grand Priest by a maid.

"The Evidence of the Silver Moon represents the wisdom of the Stars, Night Moon, are you ready to receive the gift from the Ancients? Staring at the silver necklace in his hand, the Grand Priest asked.

"Yes, I'm ready. Satsuki replied reverently.

"Very well, then, the ancient wisdom will guide you into the future, and I will teach you how to properly assist a king. ”
