readx;? This night was not an evenly matched battle for the entire ancient village, but a one-sided massacre. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info Xi Chen not only brought Han Xiao's two thousand elite iron cavalry, but also hundreds of northern border guards, both in number and momentum, far surpassing these ancient town remnants and the few black armor troops.

After nearly two hours of slaughter, the roars and wails in the village gradually subsided, and from beginning to end, Xi Chen stood in the middle of the dojo silently observing all this, without moving a single hand.

At this moment, the corpses in the dojo were piled up, the blood was flowing like a river, and the air in the entire ancient village was filled with a thick bloody atmosphere, which made people feel a churning in their stomachs after smelling it for a long time. Tan Si and Qin Bao each took people around the village, and almost every corner had to be searched carefully, for fear that one would be let go. Hu Lao, on the other hand, led a group of northern border guards to patrol back and forth between the corpses in the dojo, holding steel knives that kept dripping blood downward, and they couldn't wait to make up for each corpse a few more times before they were willing, so as not to leave a chance for anyone who pretended to be dead.

Xi Chen's methods of doing things are amazing, and Lu Yifan, who watched it, couldn't help but be frightened. He simply said a killing word, but the lives of nearly a thousand remnants of the ancient village were completely cut off here.

"Don't, don't...... Don't come here...... "The last six or seven remnants of the ancient town were now paralyzed into a ball and crowded into a corner of the dojo, and they were still waving their swords indiscriminately, as if they wanted to force back the dozens of northern border guards surrounding them, and they trembled and roared vigorously, "Don't come here...... Don't come here...... "Although they were still fighting the trapped beasts, Lu Yifan could clearly hear the despair and pleading in their voices.

Obviously, they want to continue to live in their hearts. But then again, if you can live, then who wants to die?

The northern guards didn't pay attention to the pale and weak intimidation of these people, and one by one, the northern guards covered in blood were grim and pressed forward step by step, the blades in their hands were already raised above the heads of these people, as long as the knives in their hands fell, their lives would be completely explained.

"Governor, although they are guilty, they are considered to have a reason after all, and they don't know ......"

"No!" Without waiting for Lu Yifan to open his mouth to intercede for the remnants of these ancient towns, Xi Chen abruptly vetoed, "The governor of Pontus has already given them too many opportunities, if they are let go this time, then who else in this northern frontier will obey the rules of the border guard mansion!"

"Their ancestors were indeed victims back then, and these people are also miserable people, who have been living in the torment of hatred for so many years......"

"Lu Yifan, if the Governor of Pontus hadn't arrived in time just now, do you think this group of people would let you live?"

Yes, if it hadn't been for Xi Chen's timely appearance just now, I'm afraid that Lu Yifan would have already become the ghost of this group of ancient town remnants by now.

Seeing Lu Yifan's expression hesitating and not speaking, Xi Chen smiled lightly without looking back, and then his eyes suddenly turned cold, and he asked coldly at the group of northern border guards: "Don't you do it yet?"

"Yes!"

When the group of northern border guards heard Xi Chen's urging, they were also shocked at the moment, and then they put away their banter, and with a fierce look in their eyes, they roared and waved their knives towards the last few remaining remnants of the ancient town.

"Poof......

"Ah......h

After a series of screams and the sound of blades cutting into the body, the final battle finally came to an end. And Lu Yifan was always staring solemnly at the backs of those northern border guards who were wantonly slashing, his eyes flashing, and no one knew what he was thinking at the moment.

"Dudu, these remnants have all been killed, a total of nine hundred and thirteen people!" After making a final confirmation with Tan Si and Qin Bao, Hu Lao walked over slowly and reported respectfully to Xi Chen, "We have killed more than a hundred brothers and injured more than three hundred!"

"En!" Xi Chen has always reacted indifferently to this kind of thing, only responded slightly, and then turned his head to Lu Yifan with an ugly look and chuckled, "You see how good it is now? They no longer have to live in the torment of hatred, they can go and reunite with their ancestors! After death, there is no grudge left, not only did I kill them, but instead of harming them, I will forever free this group of people!"

Listening to Xi Chen's fallacies, Lu Yifan had a feeling of crying and laughing, since he came to Northern Xinjiang, in just over half a year, he has encountered many times more life and death than he has lived for so many years before. And over time, Lu Yifan also went from being unacceptable at the beginning to gradually becoming indifferent, so that today looking at the corpses with missing arms and legs all over the ground under his feet, he no longer has the impact and inexplicable excitement he had before.

Even Lu Yifan himself didn't know if this was a kind of growth, but at this moment, in the face of bloody life and death, his mind suddenly remembered what Impermanence said to him during the Heavenly Grace Competition, probably this is the real life and death training, the real cultivation and tempering in blood and fire!

"Yifan, are you right?" Xi Chen still looked at Lu Yifan with a faint smile.

Facing Xi Chen's questioning, Lu Yifan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then nodded lightly unconsciously, and then looked directly at the corners of Xi Chen's mouth and forced out an indescribable wry smile, but his smile looked more ugly than crying.

"There's something I don't understand!" Just as Hu Lao continued to report the battle situation to Xi Chen, Liu Sandao suddenly asked, "Just now, Di Yue took advantage of the chaos and joined the battle, not only did you not let me chase him, but you also turned a blind eye to him. Now that others have long since disappeared without a trace, what does that mean?"

Liu Sandao's question was not unreasonable, in fact, at the beginning of the battle just now, Di Yue took advantage of Xi Chen and the others not paying attention to blending into the battle, and Liu Sandao, who was the first to discover this scene, of course couldn't let him go, and he wanted to rush up with the knife, but was stopped by Xi Chen, and then until now, Xi Chen actually let Di Yue escape in the troubled waters, and he was still indifferent, which naturally caused Liu Sandao's dissatisfaction.

You must know that Di Yue offended Lu Yifan this time, and almost killed Lu Yifan's life, and the person who hated him the most was Liu Sandao.

"Not to mention whether we can keep this person in the end, even if we do kill him, then who should go back and report to the orc army?"

"I understand what Du Du meant!" Even if the clever Lu Yifan understood Xi Chen's intentions, he deliberately let Di Yue go not to let the tiger return to the mountain, but for another purpose, he wanted to use Di Yue's mouth to take the opportunity to disintegrate the relationship between the beast clan and Lan Shixun.

After all, Di Yue is not a fool, he must be able to figure out why Xi Chen suddenly led someone to kill, someone must have secretly leaked the news, as for who deliberately leaked the news, Xi Chen and Han Xiao didn't need to think much to know that it must be Chu Lingtian. Although Xi Chen hadn't guessed Chu Lingtian's intention to do this, he was sure that Chu Lingtian would definitely not be so kind and really wanted to save Lu Yifan, and he revealed this news to himself as nothing more than wanting to kill people with a knife! In this case, how could Xi Chen let Chu Lingtian succeed so easily, Di Yue was born in the Rakshasa Gate, and he was an extremely hot potato, he Chu Lingtian was unwilling to face it, so Xi Chen naturally would not solve it for him, so he deliberately let Di Yue go, as long as Di Yue went back, then Chu Lingtian's leakage of the news would definitely not be hidden, and sooner or later the beast clan would resent him, and then the estrangement would be reborn.

"Okay, clean up the mess! Then let's hurry back! Lord Han's side is in danger now, and it's the time to employ people!" Xi Chen looked around again, and then opened his mouth to give an order to Hu Lao.

As soon as Xi Chen mentioned Han Xiao, Lu Yifan hurriedly nodded and asked, "Is Uncle Han okay?"

This time, the Orc army sent a full 100,000 people to invade our border in an attempt to enter the northern frontier, but fortunately, Lord Han used his troops like a god, and he relied on the 50,000 horses in his hand to firmly block the 100,000 troops of the Orcs from the junction of the ice fields. Speaking of this, Xi Chen's tone couldn't help but become a little emotional, "It is really a blessing for the Holy Land to have a protector like Lord Han under His Majesty the Emperor!"

"Great!" As soon as he heard this, Xie Yun shouted excitedly, "Let's rush back and join Lord Han and kill the enemy with him!"

"Although Lord Han and his army of 50,000 are brave and good at fighting, after all, there is a huge gap between them and the beast army in terms of numbers. Xi Chen continued, "Therefore, it has only been two or three days, but we have already fought a total of seven battles with the beast army, large and small, and the largest two of them have caused extremely heavy casualties to our men and horses, until today, when I came out, the dead and wounded brothers in the camp were close to 10,000! If we continue to fight like this, I am afraid that it will not take ten days and a half months, and our troops will not be able to hold on!"

"The battle situation is so urgent!" Lu Yifan said in surprise, "Under such an urgency, Uncle Han also deployed the Governor and two thousand elite iron horsemen to rescue me, this is really ......"

"This is enough to show how important your status is in Lord Han's heart!" Xi Chen nodded lightly, "Needless to say, go back to the camp with me quickly, Lord Han is now the time to employ people, and you will definitely be able to help a lot when you go back!"

"No problem!" Lu Yifan nodded happily.

"By the way, why were you suddenly caught by Di Yue? Shouldn't you go to the Northern Frontier camp with Lan Chen? What is the situation over there now?" Xi Chen raised his eyebrows, and suddenly asked, and at the same time, he couldn't help but flash a faint murderous intent in his eyes when he looked at Ji Yi'er.

"This ......" Seeing Xi Chen's appearance, Lu Yifan's heart suddenly trembled, and then he hurriedly subconsciously glanced at Ji Yi'er, who was silent on the side, and the words that had already reached his mouth were swallowed back by him, and now Lu Yifan didn't want Xi Chen to share too much of his heart in Ji Yi'er's affairs, otherwise once Xi Chen was investigated, he was afraid that it would be difficult for anyone to end up, as soon as he thought of these Lu Yifan, he suddenly turned around, and then smiled bitterly, " It's hard to say anything about this matter, in short, I have something very important to tell Uncle Han and the Governor, let's talk about everything after we rush back!"

"Then ...... she" Xi Chen looked directly at Ji Yi'er with a faint gaze, and said to Lu Yifan with a smile, "Go back with us?"

"No need!"

Before Lu Yifan could speak, a clear voice suddenly sounded in the darkness, and then I saw a white-robed Xuan Yi slowly walking out of the darkness and appearing in front of everyone.

"What person?" Seeing this, Tan Si's face couldn't help but change, and then he raised the steel knife in his hand and pointed directly at Xuan Fang, shouting angrily, "You dare to sneakily hide in the dark, Lao Tzu doesn't look like a good thing to you!"

"Xi Chen is polite!" In the face of the scene of many people, Xuan Fang did not have a little stage fright, but actually bowed respectfully to Xi Chen, and then he slowly took out a bronze token from his chest, and on the token there was a simple "Xuan" character clearly written, and when he saw this token, Xi Chen's eyes also slowly narrowed.

"Xuanzong Bronze Order, are you Xuanzong's registered elder?" Xi Chen said lightly.

All the people of Xuanzong have a token that represents their identity, and the bronze order is one of them, which represents the registered elders in Xuanzong. The so-called Named Elders are actually the leaders selected from among the disciples of the sect, and they generally have excellent cultivation talents, and are regarded as young disciples with the potential to become the powerhouses, and once the cultivation of these Named Elders breaks through the Soul Emperor barrier, they will also be promoted to the official Xuanzong Elders, and at that time their status in the entire Sacred Domain will be very noble.

"Under Xuanfang!" Xuanfang smiled politely, "I can't hide it, I took the liberty to come here tonight just to welcome the little junior sister back!"

"Senior sister?" As soon as Xuan Fang's words came out, even Xi Chen couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then he turned his head to look at Ji Yi'er, and suddenly understood something in his heart, "She is your junior sister?

"That's good!" Xuan Fang showed neither humility nor arrogance in front of Xi Chen, "I can't hide it, the person who secretly reported to Governor Xi Chen and Lord Han this morning is the one who is here! In fact, this is also a helpless move, and it is really weak enough to rescue the little junior sister and Lu Gongzi and others, so the only way to save Lord Han and Governor Xi Chen is here!"

And hearing the conversation between Xuanfang and Xi Chen, Ji Yuan, who was seriously injured, couldn't stop trembling in his eyes, until this moment the truth was no longer that he didn't believe that Ji Yi'er was a person from Xuanzong!

"Oh?" Xi Chen smiled meaningfully, "Then why don't you go to the Northern Xinjiang camp to find Chu Lingtian for help?"

"Governor Xi Chen laughed!" Xuan Fang said with a light smile, "I have never met General Chu in Xia, and I don't know each other, why do you want to go to him? What's more, if there is anything in the northern Xinjiang, of course, you must first report to the Border Guard Mansion, so naturally this kind of thing should also be asked for help from Governor Xi Chen!"

In fact, at this moment, Xi Chen and Xuanfang are like mirrors in their hearts, but there is no conclusive evidence in Xi Chen's hands, both of them are pretending to be confused, and no one is willing to take the initiative to pierce this layer of window paper! The so-called dog beating also depends on the master, don't forget who the sect master of Xuanzong is? That is the sect leader of the Holy Domain, who is nominally on an equal footing with the Emperor, the first powerhouse of the Holy Domain, Dongfang Su!

For Xi Chen, it doesn't matter if he offends Chu Lingtian, Lan Shixun, or even the entire beast clan, he can't be afraid, but Dongfang Su, the leader of the Holy Domain, can't be easily offended. Because if you are not careful, you will be completely reduced to a place of no return.

"Since you all have the intention of saving her, then you can take her away!" Xi Chen deliberately said a "you", in fact, you are not only referring to Xuan Fang alone, of course, there are also Lu Yifan and Ji Yuan and others. Rather than a stalemate, Xi Chen might as well be a favor, not to mention that Ji Yi'er is just a female streamer in the end, even if she participates in Lan Shixun's rebellion, she is just an insignificant pawn, and it doesn't matter to Xi Chen whether she kills or stays.

"Yi'er ......"

As soon as he heard Xi Chen say this, Ji Yuandang endured the severe pain in his arms, and then pushed away Xie Yun and Ah Chang who were supporting him with difficulty, looked at Ji Yi'er earnestly, opened and closed his mouth for a long time, and was so excited that he couldn't say a word for a long time. And the retention in his eyes is something that even a fool can see.

"Yi'er, let's go!" On the other side, Xuan Fang also smiled lightly and spoke, he completely ignored Ji Yuan's pleading eyes, and walked straight towards Ji Yi'er with a light smile, and walked to Ji Yi'er without hesitation under the eyes of Ji Yuan, Lu Yifan and others, turned over his hand and took off the big coat behind him and carefully draped it on Ji Yi'er's body, and then gently wrapped Ji Yi'er's soft waist with his right hand, which was to hold Ji Yi'er's whole person in his arms, and looking at Xuan Fang's eyes that looked at the injuries on Ji Yi'er's face, it was actually with endless distress and concern, "I'm sorry, Senior Brother is late and made you suffer!"

For Xuan Fang's such intimate actions, Ji Yi'er didn't dodge from beginning to end, and her submissiveness also made Ji Yuan's heart completely shattered.

"Yi'er...... Don't leave ......" Ji Yuan finally mustered up his courage and said, "I am your brother, and you, the so-called senior brother, are not...... I don't worry about you going with him...... Please, brother, go home with my brother...... Okay?"

Hearing Ji Yuan's words, Ji Yi'er's body trembled slightly, and then she slowly raised her head and looked directly at Ji Yuan, and Ji Yuan saw that Ji Yi'er was finally willing to look directly at herself, so she hurriedly endured the severe pain and raised her broken arm, and wiped her dirty face with the cuffs that were not good, and then the face covered with tears and blood suddenly raised a very kind smile, the sincerity of the smile, the love, The concern was enough to make Lu Yifan's eyes redden, especially Ah Chang, who couldn't help but hide his face and cry.

"Yi'er ......"

"Don't touch her!" Without waiting for Xuan Fang to whisper in Ji Yi'er's ear again, Ji Yuan roared suddenly like a wolf protecting his cubs, and his sudden roar also startled Xuan Fang, "Take your dirty hands away from her, or I'll chop off your hands!"

"Ji Yuan!" This time, without waiting for Xuan Fang to speak, Ji Yi'er was the first to speak, and when she opened her mouth, she didn't call 'brother', but called Ji Yuan's name, and Ji Yi'er's direct call by his name also made Ji Yuan stunned for a moment, and the original anger towards Xuan Fang was completely extinguished in an instant, just staring at Ji Yi'er in a daze, but Ji Yi'er's eyes suddenly flashed a stubborn look, and her voice said coldly, "You are not my relative, let alone my brother, so you have no right to interfere in my affairs!" For so many years, my senior brother has taken meticulous care of me, and in my heart, now there is only my senior brother, and there is no elder brother ......"

After that, before Ji Yuan could react, Ji Yi'er suddenly grabbed Xuanfang's arm and quickly left the dojo, and disappeared into the night in a blink of an eye.

And for a long time after Ji Yi'er left, Ji Yuan maintained his last expression, standing motionless like a solidified sculpture.

Of course, the posture can be stiff, and even the expression can be completely solidified, but what can never be concealed is still the tears of sadness that flow out of the corners of Ji Yuan's eyes......

......
