Chapter 99: The Sacrifice (3)

"The strong and the weak are relative, and if there is no contrast between the weak, there is no way to show the strength of the strong. You often look for powerful ways to work hard, but you forget to start with little by little. It is an innate ability to be able to feel the fluctuations of the spiritual power of various things overnight, but why can't you, as a machine spirit master, break through this limitation? Everything in the world is regular, what is the point of thinking back to you five years ago and then starting to look for your power again, how about it?"

"What is the meaning of strength? Thank you, Dean. ”

Li Li, who felt that there was a gap in the door that had been closed in her heart, chased after the sacrificial procession with excitement on her face.

"Li Li? I can indeed feel the breath of Ying'er in her who is not inferior to back then. ”

The golden particles gradually gathered and transformed into the appearance of a young boy.

"Why don't you take her as a disciple? Don't tell me you don't have that intention. ”

"Hmm...... How could I not be tempted by such a good seedling. But I have an oath in ......"

Looking at Ye Chen's melancholy appearance, the young boy turned into golden particles and dissipated.

Dozens of meters high above the southern gate of the Holy Light

"It will take about three hours for the procession of the senior sacrifice to pass through the city gate overnight, why don't you go to eat first?"

"No need, Ruan Yu, you go first. ”

"Okay"

Ruan Yu obeyed Ye Yixi's order and walked straight into the city tower.

After Ruan Yu left, only Ye Yixi and the guards in charge were left above the South City Gate.

Maintaining the posture of looking into the city, Ye Yixi looked at the sacrificial procession slowly moving towards the city gate with a solemn face.

The location of the temple where the sacrificial procession set off was very close to the southern gate of the Holy Light, but it would take three or four hours for the sacrificial procession to reach the city gate if the Holy Light City was the largest city in the Instrument Spirit Continent.

"The speed of the sacrificial procession is too slow, so it would be nice to be able to reach the villages of Nancheng today. ”

"Haven't you read the plan for the sacrifice overnight? Today, the sacrificial procession will rest in the village for a day, and by the way, the sacrifice will be blessed for the sacrifices needed. ”

The strap on the face of Dong'er, the brown-haired boy who came out of the city tower, was gone, and he leaned against the wall of the city tower next to Ye Yixi with a lazy look.

"Do you still have a plan for the sacrifice?"

"Well, I'll lend you this one. ”

The pure white light flickered, and Dong'er had an extra plan in her hand.

"Tomorrow's sacrifice will be carried out in the fields, and then I will return to the castle, and I thought that after going around the castle, I will hold the sacrifice in the castle after returning to the castle......"

Looking at the plan he received from Dong'er, Ye Yixi carefully checked and forcibly wrote down some steps of the sacrifice.

"What the hell are you looking at so seriously?"

After receiving the plan from Ye Yixi's hand, Dong'er looked down boredly at Ye Yixi's line of sight.

"Aren't you the most afraid of trouble, why don't you rest in the castle tower and go outside?"

"They are all living people, and they are all admirers of the eldest brother and the second brother, so they also think that I have been asking about some boring past events like the eldest brother and the second brother......"

Dong'er said as she was bohemian, and a look of loneliness appeared on her face.

"Can't you let go of the things of the past?"

"There's not everything in the world that you can put down. Forget it, don't talk about these sad things. Can you tell me what you're looking at?"

Forcing a smile, Dong'er pretended to stretch and changed the topic.

"In the morning, on the way to the temple, I saw a figure of concern......"

"Why don't you continue? What's wrong with the figure you care about?"

"Found it"

As soon as the words fell, Ye Yixi jumped directly down the city tower with both hands against the city wall.

"What did you find?"

Dong'er, who was attracted to interest, also jumped off the city tower after Ye Yixi.

"Captain Hongri, what are you doing here?"

In the corner behind the city tower that Ye Yixi and Dong'er had just left, Hongri rushed out of the shadows amid Ling Fei's call.

"It's nothing, Ling Fei, do you have something to do when you come out?"

"It's too stuffy inside, I'll come out to breathe and talk to Dong'er for a while. Anyway, why is Dong'er gone?"

"Dong'er just went down with Yiyi Gongzi. ”

Hongri, who had been staring at Ye Yixi and Dong'er for a long time in the dark, easily said where Dong'er went.

On the top of the tower at the South Gate of the Holy Light

“...... Ye Yixi's speed is so fast, I have to use the magic of the wind attribute to keep up with ......"

"What I care more about is Dong'er, who can easily keep up with Ye Yixi's pace after Ye Yixi, it is really worthy of the speed of the three brothers of the Dong family compared to Ye Yixi, which is as good as Ye Yixi......"

"Didn't I say that it was too hot in the spare room to blow the wind on the roof? ”

Lying on Si Kou Yuan on the top of the city tower, he looked at Ouyang Zhen and Moka, who were standing at his feet with serious faces, and said helplessly.

"Si Kou Yuan, the obscure person who has been named in the inner courtyard and Dice, I am also full of curiosity about your true strength. ”

"Ouyang Zhen, don't stir things up. ”

Moka dodged in front of Ouyang Zhen and stopped Ouyang Zhen who was shining with golden light in his eyes.

"Senior Sikou?"

Feeling the action of Si Kou Yuan beside him getting up, Ruan Yu immediately got up and wanted to stop it.

"Don't worry about ......"

Waving his hand at Ruan Yu, Si Kou Yuan got up and patted the dust and walked towards the edge of the top of the city tower.

"There's nothing attractive about my strength, if you have time to care, you might as well pay attention to our lovely Ruan Yu junior. ”

Leaving an inexplicable word, Si Kou Yuan jumped off the city tower and continued to close his eyes in a shadow.

"Huh~"

Because of Si Kou Yuan's words, Ruan Yu kept cold sweat behind his back under the gaze of Ouyang Zhen and Moka.

The Temple of Light is located in the forest of a hill

“...... Miss, please leave the Holy Light City as soon as possible. ”

The girl who forcibly detained Ye Yixi's token was leaning against the big tree, and in front of her, a garden plate with a mysterious formation pattern engraved on the surface floated in the air, and the images of three illusory white-haired old men took shape on it.

"No, it was you who let me stay in the Holy Light City to avoid the limelight before, and now it is you who let me hurry up and leave. Didn't you say that in order to cultivate my sense of leadership, the [Ten Soldiers] will listen to my opinions and let me know in the future tasks? Why do you want to accept the commission of the [Miyin Thief]?"

"That's an essential ...... for our future development"

"What about participating in this commission to destroy the Holy Light? Obviously, the Holy Light tolerates us everywhere......"

"This is what the Light owes us. ”

“...... Anyway I won't go back. If you're not afraid that I'll be affected in the City of Light, you'll continue to help the abuse, right?"

The reason, which had been heard countless times, was once again used by the old people to prevaricate herself, and the girl angrily turned around and left in front of the disc floating in mid-air.

"Miss, Miss......"

After the anxious shouts of the old people were useless, the disc turned into gravel and drifted away in the wind in the blink of an eye.

"Can I listen to the reason why I want to stay in the Holy Light even if I don't hesitate to have conflicts with the old people who raised me?"

"Ye Yixi?"

Turning around and walking out of a distance of less than 100 meters, the girl was stopped by Ye Yixi.

However, after seeing Ye Yixi, the girl not only did not show surprise and panic, but showed a smile.

"Do you want to know? Just say a word, and I have all my secrets to tell you. ”

"Then you don't have to. ”

was directly rejected by Ye Yixi, and the girl pouted.

"Aren't you going to ask something first?"

"I don't have to ask, I know, didn't I just promise to be your help?"

"Hmph~"

was said to have hit the little Jiujiu in her heart, and the girl snorted lightly and turned her head to the side.

"Yixi, who is she?"

Dong'er walked out from behind the girl with a piece of frozen sand in her hand.

"Her name can't be said casually in the City of Light right now, I'm sorry. ”

Afraid that Dong'er would make a move on the girl, Ye Yixi approached the girl as he spoke.

"What are you doing, what's that in your hand?"

"Collected the grit from the communication artifact she just used, these are the ......"

Dong'er said and stretched out the ice in her hand forward.

"The Barrier of Air—"

Purple spiritual power flashed, and countless tiny transparent mini ice arrows fell around the girl's body behind Ye Yixi.

"When?"

Seeing the ice arrow girl scattered on the ground, she realized her danger, and subconsciously approached Ye Yixi and hid behind Ye Yixi's back.

"Dong'er, what do you mean by that?"

"Yixi Gongzi, although you are the apprentice grandson of His Excellency Ye Chen, but you harbor the girl who violated the taboo of the Holy Light......"

is still a bohemian look, but Dong'er's tone is full of oppression.

"Don't worry, as long as it is in the Holy Light City, it will not escape the surveillance of the temple, since the temple has allowed her to be free, you ......"

"I don't know about the temple......"

Dong'er, who interrupted Ye Yixi's words, finally relaxed when she looked at Ye Yixi's serious expression.

"Can you give me a reason?"

"[Ten Soldiers]"

"What's that?"

"I can't say ......"

Silence descended between the three of them, and the girl who was oppressed by the atmosphere unconsciously pulled the corner of Ye Yixi's clothes.

"Ha~, forget it"

The first to give up was Dong'er, who put the Xuan Ice in his hand into the spirit storage device and turned around and walked out of the forest.

"There are so many ice arrows, I don't even notice it. ”

After Dong'er turned to leave, dense ice arrows appeared in the girl's sight, and the ice arrows lined up on the ground reflected the sunlight and shone brightly.

"Ah~, I'm so tired. I didn't expect Dong'er to be so difficult to deal with once she was serious, I thought Dong'er would do it. Scared to death."

Looking at Ye Yixi's weak heart, the girl let go of the corner of Ye Yixi's clothes and distanced herself from Ye Yixi.

"Why is he really so strong, even you can't deal with him?"

"If there was a fight, I should be able to run for my life. But I can't protect you, you should die in less than three moves. ”

Ye Yixi's serious appearance startled the girl, and she couldn't react for a while.
