Chapter 0213: Tranquility Before the Storm

In the dim night, the two Terran monks were flying cautiously, they did not have the sword, and they tried their best to hide the aura fluctuations on their bodies, for fear of being discovered by the demon clan not far away, they fell on a hill, it was a moonless night, the gray clouds and mist also obscured most of the stars, the trees on the hill were flourishing, the sound of flowing water was murmuring, and the sound of insects one after another added a bit of summer atmosphere.

The two of them looked among the trees at the distant peak, which was so glorious that more than a dozen fluttering bands of light hung from the top of the nearest mountain, over the entire peak, through the foot of the mountain, and straight into the sky, like the ribbons on the clothes of mortal dancers.

"What is this mountain doing?"

"How do I know!"

"Didn't the spies a few days ago say that Upside Down Mountain has been quiet, no different from ordinary peaks?"

"Ordinary peaks? When have you ever seen an ordinary mountain of this size? And it's hanging upside down?"

“...... It makes sense, maybe this is some kind of formation. ”

"I don't know, let's report it first. ”

The two talked in low voices, and one of them took out the messenger and was trying to activate it, completely oblivious to the fact that behind them, a man riding a scalper stared at them without blinking.

"Strange, the messenger can't be reached ......"

"Hmm? I'll try. ”

Another monk stretched out his hand to take it, looked at it twice, and suddenly his face changed greatly, he hurriedly turned around, the sword behind his back was suddenly unsheathed, and the man riding the ox was smiling and waving his hand to say hello, "Be careful, I'm a demon clan!"

Sword light rushed out.

But it sank like a stone into the sea.

Sui Chen's index finger was against the tip of the sword, and the sharp sword qi was forced back, and it sank into the sword, and the long sword roared sadly, and small cracks stretched out from the tip of the sword, covering the entire sword body in an instant.

Bang.

The sword shattered in an instant.

"Tianyuan Realm!"

The sword cultivator spat out a mouthful of blood, the pain of the sword shattering swept through his mind, dizziness and pain alternated, he looked at the years and said with difficulty, "Demon Ancestor disciple!"

"Huh, do you recognize me?" Sui Chen was a little curious, and he put down the book in his right hand.

There was an aura secretly condensed between the hands of the sword cultivator, and he nodded, "The eldest disciple of the Demon Ancestor, he is not in the age of hugging one!! He has stepped into the Tianyuan Realm for thousands of years, but he still refuses to break through the realm!"

"You know very well," Sui Chen muttered, his face a little appreciative, "but the secret technique hidden between your hands is not ready yet?"

"Let's go!" Jian Xiu's face changed, and he shouted to the monk beside him, his hands suddenly slapped out, the earth trembled, and stone pillars flew up from the ground, hanging in the air, like a prison.

With a wave of the sleeve robe, the ox sitting down screamed softly, and the invisible waves swung out, smashing the heavy stone pillars, and there was a strong wind howling on the mountain, and the trees swayed non-stop, and the leaves fell down and rolled up with the wind, there were two green leaves, flying in the wind, looking slow and leisurely, but in an instant they flew in front of the sword cultivator.

A streak of blood poured out.

A fallen leaf crossed Jian Xiu's neck, the expression on his face froze, his hands were still wide open, but the aura had dissipated without a trace, and another fallen leaf swayed up, catching up with the monk who was fleeing frantically, piercing his heart.

Sui Chen clapped his hands, grabbed a handful of spiritual grass from the wooden basket, fed it to the ox, and lay down on the cow's back, he covered his face with his hands, and said softly, "Let's go, we want to fight." ”

---------------------------------------

"The most annoying thing about defending a city is being on duty at night. ”

Jiang Rui rubbed his hands, shook off the peanut skin on the stain, the sun just set, at the beginning of the night, torches and lanterns were lit on the city wall, many people were eating, the soldiers in turn ran around in a row on the city wall, Jiang Rui and Su Qi squatted under the wall at the head of the city, just finished enjoying a roast chicken and half a plate of peanuts.

"Because of boredom?" Su Qi glanced at the right front, two soldiers were inspecting the crossbow, one was here to take over, and the other was responsible for guarding the city during the day.

"Well," Jiang Rui nodded, and cleaned up the oil paper in front of him, "During the day, everything is full of life, there are noisy and lively sounds in the city, and there are convoys coming and going under the city. It's empty, and you are not allowed to cultivate, you can only stand there, looking at the dark world in the distance, that kind of loneliness and loneliness will gradually devour your soul, Dali's military discipline does not allow soldiers to talk at will when defending the city, but in fact, at night, the execution is not good, soldiers get together to chat and fart from time to time, most of the generals turn a blind eye, because everyone came from that time, knowing that it is a very painful thing to guard the city at night. ”

"There's something very curious," Su Qi turned his head, Jiang Rui was wearing a battle armor and a helmet on the ground beside him, "Why didn't you become the crown prince?"

Jiang Rui was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Being a prince is not a good thing for me. ”

Su Qi looked at him steadily.

"I'm used to being lazy, if I wasn't born in the Dali royal family, I would probably worship a mountain gate and embark on the path of cultivation without touching the world, but after all, I have the blood of the Jiang family, and it is impossible to simply walk away," Jiang Rui was a little melancholy, he silently looked into the distance," When I was young, my father was busy with political affairs, I basically grew up with the three emperor brothers, although he was a little unreliable, but among our brothers, it was the most royal and imperial court consideration, maybe it was his influence, after his death, I promised my father that I would fight for Dali for 20 years, and after 20 years, I would chase the way of heaven, but I didn't expect that when the time was about to come, my father was gone, and Dali was also stormy. ”

"Li Fuyao said that serving in the Demon Town Pass for more than ten years has delayed your cultivation. ”

"Well, otherwise I should have touched the edge of the Divine Realm by now," Jiang Rui shrugged and laughed again, "Actually, I'm about to step into the Void Ming soon, but I've been busy dealing with Jingcheng's military affairs these days, and I haven't had time to try to break through the realm." ”

Su Qi was stunned for a moment, and before he could congratulate him, a series of noisy footsteps came from under the stairs on the side, and several soldiers hurriedly ran over, and the first one gave a military salute and whispered, "The spy in charge of monitoring the upside-down mountain today has been killed, and the life card has been shattered." ”

"The spies near Anyuan City were also killed. Another soldier reported.

"Jiangcheng's spies have also lost contact. ”

Jiang Rui and Su Qi glanced at each other, they both noticed that something was wrong, Jiang Rui's face was ugly, and he said slowly, "I'm afraid something is going to happen, sound the drum!"
