Next, Zhai Linqing explained some things about preparing for military affairs, and Qi Lan only laughed when he heard it. He was not interested in these things, and just when he wanted to get up and say goodbye, Meng Xingzong suddenly said, "Qi Xia, will you still go to the Shadow Guards?"

This time, the Shadow Guards led by Qi Lan are the top of all the exorcist groups, and their combat achievements are outstanding, and they are simply a banner of the human race. Now that his cultivation has reached the peak of a thousand years, whether he can continue to contribute to the empire is very important, and naturally needs a clear statement.

As soon as the "Shadow Guard" Qi Lan heard this name, five resolute smiling faces appeared in his mind. I don't know how these little guys are doing now. After being rescued by Qing Yao, where did they go, they had already broken through the artistic conception, and they wouldn't be too bad if they wanted to mix.

"Deputy Hall Master Meng, Qi Mou was just contributing his modest contribution to the safety of the world. Now the country is stable. Qi naturally no longer bothered, hoping that after solving the problem I tried my best, I would be able to travel the world with my wife, and I would not be in the world from now on, and I would also look at the master of Zhai Hall and the deputy hall master of Meng, Haihan. ”

Although everyone here understood that Qi Lan would definitely not help you fight the world like before, he still sighed slightly after hearing this.

"In the current situation, Qi Xia has made great contributions. Now it is natural to return to seclusion again, this glass of wine, salute Qi Xia. Meng Xingzong knew that although he was reluctant, he couldn't do anything to others.

The rest was some messy gossip, and Qi Lan also chatted with each other. But who would have thought that this statement would be said for almost an hour and a half.

"I can really say it, it seems that being an official is also quite miserable, and I have to find something to say when I have nothing to say. After finally dispersing, Qing Yao began to complain.

Qi Lan put her hands lazily behind her head and said, "Then what's the solution, it's already routine for them to eat." I'm just a platform where strength is in front of me. ”

Qing Yao hid her face and smiled, "Bragging again." ”

"Hmph" Qi Lan said disdainfully, "Brother is the second largest in the world, what is there to brag about." "Today is a rare opportunity, let's go to the night market." Saying that, the previous sentence followed the next sentence, not giving Qing Yao a chance to hit herself.

"Okay" Qing Yao didn't tear him down, and continued to hold hands and lean on his body, walking forward slowly.

The two of them hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, as if they could no longer be separated, and they circled around the night market in Moon Sea City for a full hour and a half, and they didn't return to the house on the edge of the city until the market was dispersed.

"Arashi, my feet hurt. Qing Yao sat on the bed and shook her feet coquettishly.

Qi Lan smiled slightly, and stretched out her hand to summon a large wooden basin, which contained half a basin of water, and it was still steaming.

"Come, brother, wash your feet. ”

Holding Qing Yao's jade feet in his hand, Qi Lan couldn't help but sigh, "How good it would be if time could stay at this moment." ”

Qing Yao also said: "Then how about we live in seclusion after getting rid of the Dark Emperor." Emperor Yan will leave it to them to deal with. It's just that the Alien King is always an unknown variable. ”

Qi Lan asked with great interest, "What is the Alien Demon King, I have seen it in the secret books of the Five Sects, it seems to be related to the great war a thousand years ago, do you know what it is?"

Qing Yao thought for a while and said, "I don't know exactly what he is talking about, but what is recorded in the Five Sects is true, the devil from a foreign land who died with Lord Tao back then is the Alien Demon King." It's just that there are very few preserved in the history of that year, and there is no way to verify it, only the records of the Great War, although detailed, but really useless. “

Qi Lan said, "Have you heard something?" ”

Qing Yao pondered for a moment and said, "I heard it, but I didn't hear it, but I seem to have seen something in the memory of Emperor Qing, let me think about it." “

Qi Lan didn't interject and waited quietly.

Qing Yao said, "I can't see the birth of the Alien Demon King, I can only know that the Alien Demon King grows by absorbing the negative energy of human beings, and has the power to manipulate the darkness of people's hearts. He will emit a viscous black mist outward, and as long as ordinary people inhale this black mist, their hearts will be replaced by coldness. And the negative energy they exude is the best food for the Demon King. In the great war of that year, Lord Tao fought against the Alien Demon King twice, and the second and last time he died with him. It is recorded in the history books, but in fact, Lord Tao only scattered and sealed the power of the Alien Demon King, and it is not known why he did not completely destroy it. “

"Things are getting weirder and weirder, but judging from the current situation, the alien demon king has not broken through the seal, although he is in a hurry, at least he is still trapped, and it feels like such a thing is really a knife hanging over his head, and he must be clarified. Qi Lan pondered.

"Aren't you still going to the royal family, maybe you can find any clues in the secret book left by the Tiandu Dynasty. Qing Yao said.

"Forget it. Qi Lan rubbed his swollen head, "Let's take it step by step, go to Emperor Gloom first, torture to extract a confession, maybe you can know something." It's getting late, so get some rest. Originally, Qi Lan didn't want to leave, but thinking that Qing Yao had just come back, it was a little inappropriate, so she stood up and prepared to leave.

Just as he was about to leave, Qing Yao grabbed him and said, "Lan, do you know what I regretted the most that day?"

"That day?" Qi Lan thought of the night when she fell and was separated by life and death, "What do you regret? ”

didn't care about jokes, but Qing Yao said seriously, "I regret that I didn't give myself to you completely." ”

After speaking, when Qi Lan was stunned, he pressed him down on the bed with aggression and waved his hand to extinguish the candlelight.

The next day, in the crisp birdsong from the early morning, Qi Lan woke up leisurely. glanced at Qing Yao, who was pillowing his arm and drooling, and couldn't help but think of the crazy picture of last night in his mind, and couldn't help but reach out and pinch two more handfuls on the fragrant delicate body beside him. After a while, he shook his head violently and threw those messy thoughts out of his mind, he didn't want to be treated as a womanizer by Qing Yao, although he already was.

didn't enjoy a moment of warmth quietly, and Qing Yao also woke up. When he opened his eyes in a daze, he saw the smiling eyes of his sweetheart, and then he thought about what happened last night, and he was so ashamed that he buried his head in Qi Lan's chest, unwilling to raise it.

Looking at her lover's shy appearance, the smile on Qi Lan's face became even stronger, and she reached out and pinched her slender willow waist, "Come on, we still have to go to the Dark Emperor." ”

Qing Yao twisted her body twice, trying to break free from Qi Lan's bad hand. It didn't matter if she twisted, Qi Lan's body stiffened, and she quickly jumped off the bed. Both of them are naked and stuck together, which is really a bit exciting.

It wasn't until Qi Lan had made breakfast that Qing Yao walked out of the bedroom as if she had just woken up.

"Eat, let's go. ”

Qing Yao sat down listlessly, "I'm tired, I don't want to move." ”

Qi Lan smiled, "I said that I would kill the Dark Emperor and travel the world together, but I don't hurry up to complete the task." ”

While eating breakfast, Qing Yao said, "I don't even have the strength to walk now, let alone gather energy, it's all up to you!"

Qi Lan raised her eyebrows, "It's obviously your ......" Seeing that Qing Yao's eyes were wrong, he hurriedly swallowed back the next words, "Let's not go to him directly, we can also take a tour by the way, we were only around Yunfeng Pavilion and Yuzhu Forest, and we haven't had a chance to go out for a walk." ”

Qing Yao showed a sly smile and said coquettishly, "Then you will carry me." ”

"Okay" Seeing his sweetheart pulling himself like a scoundrel, Qi Lan naturally agreed neatly.

After breakfast, a neatly dressed Qing Yao appeared on Qi Lan's back and went out of the city.

The two of them traveled all the way north, traveling and hurrying as they went.

Until the evening of the third day

"Hey, isn't that the imperial city in front?" As she walked, Qing Yao suddenly saw a city in front of her, which was extremely majestic, and there was no doubt that it was also an imperial city, but didn't Qi Lan say that he was going to find the Emperor of the Dark, how could he come here.

Qi Lan said, "You're right, before you go to find the Dark Emperor, you have to find out what Cheng Tie is, the Tiandu Empire may be able to tell us, maybe I really want to, I have been thinking about the contents of that secret book." ”

"Oh, it's my first time at the palace, hurry up, let's go. Qing Yao rode on Qi Lan and patted him on the head excitedly, she didn't care where she went, as long as she was with him, it didn't matter.

Qi Lan was speechless, so she had to speed up her pace.

Far away, a palatial palace appeared in front of them. The dome glittering in the sunlight, the towering building, and the murderous façade. Qing Yao is like a peasant woman who has never seen the world, looking east and west, "This kind of majestic building can always give people a kind of coercion." ”

Qi Lan glanced at her and said, "Pretend, what else can give you coercion." ”

Qing Yao said playfully, "And you"

The two easily climbed over the thick walls, invisible, and wandered around the palace. This time, the guards of the palace were no longer as empty as before, and both openly and secretly, giving people a sense of urgency and oppression. Of course, this is just a feeling of the environment, and it does not exist in the mind.

No matter how many artistic conception powerhouses there are in this palace, in front of them, there is basically air. The artistic conception is far from threatening them, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are even ants.

Since he had come once a few days earlier, Qi Lan took Qing Yao to the magnificent seven-story pagoda with ease.

"In the end, it's a palace, everything is magnificent. Qing Yao looked up and down at the seven-story pagoda that radiated a misty light.

Qi Lan glanced up at the top floor, then at the fourth floor, and just wanted to say something, but his eyes were directly locked on the first floor that he had never entered.

"What's the matter, are you looking for the door?" Qing Yao slid off his body and said.

"No," Qi Lan's face was a little strange, and her brows tightened, "There is a layer of alien aura, although it is very faint and almost dissipates, but I can still feel it." I just said that the last time I came, I felt wrong everywhere. It seems that it should be the reason for the enhancement of cultivation. ”

"Huh?" Qing Yao said in surprise, "You didn't go to the first floor last time?"

Qi Lan said, "No, I didn't find anything special last time, so I went in through the window on the second floor so as not to cause unnecessary trouble." ”

"Then let's take a look at what's inside the first floor. Qing Yao said and walked forward, her hands on the outer wall of the pagoda, releasing circles of green light patterns.

"Who!" An angry roar sounded, and it was obvious that Qing Yao's actions had alarmed the guardians of the palace.
