Chapter 70: Those Distant Memories
The laughter of Nie Fengbei's departure was still lingering, and from this, we could see the arrogance of the Shinto Zhai power towards the earth and sea. Ling Yue's eyes were full of irrepressible anger, Shen Dao Zhai had been active in the Earth Sea so frequently in recent years, and the Shen Dao Zhai sub-forces led by Nie Fengbei simply regarded themselves as the kings of the Earth Sea Dark World, although it was not enough to be in such a big realm as Yun Ting, but its own ambition should not be underestimated. The Seven Realms of the Earth Sea have a feeling of thorns in the back of the Shinto Zhai in the Earth Sea, the Earth Sea World is in charge of the throat of the side that provides resources to the eastern continent of the Kushan Land Continent, although the relationship with several major empires has been relatively stiff due to the issue of strategic resources many times, but for those empires, the Earth Sea is still a world of reading power.
But Shinto Sai is far more of an invisible threat to Jihai than those empires pose. In recent years, Shinto Zhai's activities in the earth and sea have largely come to some of the downstream wandering groups that are hunting spirit beasts, developing mineral veins, and producing spiritual elixirs. There is a wide competition for the influence of the Seven Realms in the power of the Yunyou Group. As we all know, the wandering groups of the Seven Great Realms provide a large part of the crystal nucleus, animal skins, animal tendons, and elixir sources for the outside world's spiritual weapons, bows and arrows, spirit runes, medicines, etc., and the finished and semi-finished products exported from the earth-sea system every year are a huge measure. Shinto Zhai is naturally greedy, so there is a force like Nie Fengbei who gathers these resources for Shinto Zhai and gradually intends to control the right to speak in this regard. In fact, Shinto Zhai has a reputation as a "locust" in many external areas, in addition to the earthly sea.
In order to satisfy his appetite for expansion ambitions and build the foundation of the ten major sects of the Kushan Land Continent, the behemoth of Shinto Zhai sent tentacles from all directions to steal resources from all sides, and Dihai was of course one of them. Over the years, the Seven Great Realms have clearly found that their influence in the Earth Sea has begun to gradually decrease, and to a large extent, it is the result of the operation of the Nie Fengbei forces of Shinto Zhai here. But neither side can help the other, thus forming a relatively equal balance, but for the Seven Great Realms, the existence of Shinto Zhai is always like a thorn, always provoking the softest place of the Seven Great Realms.
Ling Ruohai's eyes were gloomy, and after Nie Fengbei and the others left, he snorted coldly and went to the back tent with his sleeves.
Nie Fengbei's performance was nothing more than making everyone look bad, Ling Qiuyan frowned, and seemed to still have a lot of opinions about Nie Fengbei's party's disrespect in the tent, but then moved his cold eyes to Yang Ze, "Originally, the unhappiness didn't have to happen, but because of your maverick behavior and deliberate rejection of Li Qiucheng, the whole thing was complicated." I don't know why you're going toe-to-toe with them, if you want to show a ridiculous idea that is different from most people in this way! ”
"What kind of potential enemy, Li Qiucheng or Nie Fengbei?"
Noticing Yang Ze's frivolous tone, Ling Qiuyan was slightly stunned, and said with annoyance in her heart, "Naturally, it is Nie Fengbei, he has always been eager to revenge, and now that you have openly dishonored him, he will definitely suppress you through multiple levels in the future." And the third prince Li Qiucheng has invited you many times, you were originally my Yunting guest, and your performance in the Qingxu Conference has been quite good so far, after the conference, you will be in a higher position in this Cloud Court realm. These levels of interaction are indispensable, and now that you are so arrogant, he will naturally be unhappy. ”
"When your family is threatened, when your friend is killed, and you are having a banquet and chatting with the person who started all this, even if it is small talk, I will feel that it is an extreme torture, can you do such a thing?" Yang Ze's eyes shone, "If you are eager to see Li Qiucheng and go by yourself, why do you need to borrow me to get close to him?" Could it be that this third prince of Kashima, Li Qiucheng, who was Lei Donglai's disciple, is really as outstanding in appearance as described, and his character is really as outstanding as rumored?"
In the previous sentence, Ling Qiuyan also sensed that there was another hidden truth for Yang Ze, the bloody expansion of Shendao Zhai in the Earth Sea over the years had indeed produced a lot of killings, as a rootless wanderer, it was likely that Yang Ze had a history that she did not want to recall, which caused her soft compassion. Who knew that the abrupt turn in the next sentence immediately made her face turn red and uncertain, but made her beautiful eyes slightly flustered.
In just an instant, Ling Qiuyan knew that the other party had already paid attention to her slightly flustered demeanor, and when she saw the shocked expression on her younger brother Ling Yue on the side, a wave of anger immediately arose from her heart and lungs, as if she had been stripped of her outer clothes, "What did you say!?"
The dust on the ground suddenly and invisibly radiated from Ling Qiuyan's location, and some kind of sudden momentum burst out from Ling Qiuyan's angry eyes. Standing so close, even if he didn't have to deliberately perceive it, he could know that the extremely coercive aura in Ling Qiuyan's body was invisibly climbing towards the peak.
"If you want to kill me, you want me to shut my mouth, this is a good choice. Yang Ze's dark pupils looked at the unruly woman in front of him with some mockery.
The anger in Ling Qiuyan's beautiful eyes recovered in her momentum of rising to the peak, and then subsided, her coat was lightly put in front of her, showing a slightly floating dissociation with the diminished aura, after her eyes returned to clarity, Ling Qiuyan smiled sweetly at Yang Ze's departure, "Now I am reluctant to kill you, but if you are still so open-mouthed next time, maybe I will really do it." ”
Then she did not linger any longer, and turned and walked out of the tent, her black hair dancing gently behind her back.
Looking at Ling Qiuyan's beautiful silhouette under the moonlight outside the tent. Ling Yue's voice muttered, "She's really angry."
On the way back to the camp, Yang Ze and Ling Yue had been silent, and after a while, Ling Yue shook his head in frustration, sighed and said, "Li Qiucheng has a noble status, an outstanding appearance, a woman's demon, and a man's strength, and his cultivation is said to be at the peak level of Dixuan. I know that he is very popular when he arrives in the earth, and even Xin Xiaoxu and Jiang Lingxin are frequently invited to his banquets during the Qingxu Conference. also sent Jiang Lingxin the picture scroll of "Shinto Ukiyo-e", Jiang Lingxin can't let go of the scroll these days, if it weren't for the Qingxu Conference, almost all of them would have been ignored. Originally, I thought that it was understandable that with Li Qiucheng's identity and appearance, he was loved by those women in Dihai, but I didn't expect that Ling Qiuyan's Nizi was also one of them. Although I have not had a good impression of her since I was a child, after all, this is something that makes me lose face. Li Qiucheng's guy is simply very envious, jealous and hateful, you refused his invitation for two days in a row, which is really a very happy thing. And I think there are many people who will be happy about it. ”
Yang Ze looked strange, thinking that probably the so-called "many people" you are a group of young people who are full of envy, jealousy and hatred. Jealousy is the devil.
However, Yang Ze still got the exact information, "That guy is the peak realm of the Earth Xuan."
Ling Yue nodded as a matter of course, "Lei Donglai personally cultivated, with the support of the elixir of Shendao Zhai, Li Qiucheng is only twenty years old and is at the peak of the Dixuan realm, it is inevitable hehe, these words are a bit cruel, I am afraid that many people now, in the first half of their lives, the Dixuan realm is a luxury." Even in my earth sea, cultivators who have reached the realm of earth and mystic are also rare, which is embarrassing" Ling Yue glanced at Yang Ze with a strange expression, "Of course, you have an epiphany between life and death, which is really an outlier, but most people can't be crazy people who use the line of life and death to comprehend and cultivate like you, otherwise I am afraid that they will die a hundred times earlier." ”
"But as far as I know, among Lei Donglai's three personal disciples, Li Qiucheng's cultivation is not the highest. His first two senior brothers had already reached the peak realm of Dixuan faster and earlier than him, but it was a pity that both of them died in the history of the crazy expansion of Shinto Zhai. Otherwise, now that Shinto is in the earthly sea, it will be even more indispensable. ”
Of course, Yang Ze knew who was the initiator of Li Qiucheng's two senior brothers' deaths, and it was not unreasonable for Lei Donglai to hate Daye so much and Yu Xiaoxiao so much. Da Ye Guo had already seen the potential of Lei Donglai's two personal disciples, and he had already eliminated them by thunderous means. However, fortunately, in addition to this great disaster, if Yang Ze faced Li Qiucheng's two higher cultivation and more unfathomable senior brothers at this time, I am afraid that he would not have the leisure to deal with it now, and he would not choose to protect himself first.
It wasn't until he was in Dihai that Yang Ze learned from the side how huge Shinto Zhai was, and he couldn't help but be a little more worried about those people in Daye.
Shinto Zhai is like a heavy stone, suppressed in this Far Eastern realm, and it will not go away for a long time.
Back at the camp, the two stopped in unison. Because even Ling Yue, who was cultivating in his artistic conception, could invisibly feel a feeling of palpitations and a chill. This feeling has always been there since stepping into the grass knoll where the camp is located, and it has not diminished much because of the Yunting Tiger Guards as guards around it.
And even worse. Seeing the solemnity on Yang Ze's face, Ling Yue could feel a strange and fearful feeling of cold sweat in his vest.
Standing at the door of the tent, Ling Yue suddenly found that on the top of the bamboo forest on a hill peak opposite, there was a man in white, and he was surrounded by some flowing ribbons extending from his white shirt.
At the gathering point of another cluster of camp tents, at the top of one of the highest camp tents, there was also a man dressed in blue and black, with a purple brocade dragon dark pattern gorgeous robe, his waist sword shining like quicksilver, standing around, there were already countless people who also felt the coercion from his body, this coercion even made some Yunting Tiger Guards draw their swords intensively, and looked at the blue, purple and black-clothed swordsmen on the camp tent with sweaty hands.
Ling Yue already knew from the chill and powerful palpitations emanating from these two people that his spiritual momentum was like a boat under a strong wind in front of the other party, and if the other party wanted to take his surname at this time, it might not be a complicated matter.
And only Yang Ze stood in place, like an impermeable bucket, facing the other party's terrifying divine deterrence, as steady as a rock.
The three of them looked at each other for a long time as if they were backing a mountain, and then the first thing they didn't see was the man in white, but he was on the top of the bamboo forest in the same place, shaking for a while, and there was no trace of him, and the power of his divine thoughts suddenly disappeared, as if he had never appeared there.
On the other side of the tent, the man in the blue and black robe jumped lightly, and instantly swept over two or three tents, and at the tip of the tent, he jumped away, quickly moving away, elegant and chic. There were even screams of surprise from some women along the way.
It wasn't until the two of them went that Ling Yue, who had lost all the pressure, found himself sweating, and with his eyes of deliberate cultivation, it was naturally difficult to distinguish the other party's face, and he asked in shock, "Could it be Li Qiucheng!?"
Yang Ze shook his head, "The other party appeared at the right time and used divine coercion on me to test the truth and reality, and it was the opponent who I thought matched them." With Li Qiucheng's arrogance, how could he think that I was a threat or an opponent who could match him?"
Ling Yue immediately suddenly realized, "Lingshan Chen Xuanqi! Nanping Bailu Zen!"
"Chen Xuanqi, who cultivates the "Dao Heart Sword Classic", and Bai Luchan, who cultivates the "Unquiet Zen Gong", only these two people will think that you are a threat to them. Ling Yue immediately smiled "ha", "Today, the news of the two of them appearing in our camp has spread, and we will become famous again! ”
Yang Ze looked at the position where the two of them had left without a trace, and muttered, "This Qingxu Conference is getting more and more interesting. ”
The moonlight is like a blur.
Just when Yang Ze's words did not fall, another voice next to him, Shi Shiran, sounded, "Yang Ze, Yang Sanzi, you are also getting more and more interesting."
This familiar and unfamiliar name, that distant and ethereal life experience, accompanied by the slight memory brought by this sentence, stirred Yang Ze's mind, so far, he had never heard his real name called out from the mouth of any Dihai people.
And the next moment, Yang Ze suddenly woke up. Even in the face of Chen Xuanqi and Bai Luchan's provocation and coercion, the cold sweat that had not been produced by the two of them was densely covered with vests at this moment.
He subconsciously looked at Ling Yue beside him, but suddenly found that Ling Yue's expression was frozen in place, as if time had stood still, and he was fixed in the fragment of time. Not only that, but everything around us, including the flowing wind, the fluttering tent flags, and the light sprinkled by the moonlight, seemed to have a layer of shadows, as if it had stopped.
Yang Ze quickly turned his head to look, only to see a man and a woman standing next to the tent, the man had a generous face and an outstanding appearance, giving people a sense of affinity. And the woman is like a lotus, with a hint of charm in her melancholy, and she seems to smile at Yang Ze's lost soul, and her smile seems to be overshadowed by the starry sky around her, and her smile is like a gorgeous summer flower.
Yang Ze's jaw was about to fall, "It's you!?"
