Chapter 167: Heartbeat? Let's go!
"We're not dead?" Emperor Yan sat up suddenly, and until now, the dizziness and discomfort of falling from a high altitude still lingered in her mind. That feeling is really terrifying, in the sky, there is nothing to rely on, no matter how high your martial arts are, you will not escape death. No wonder people have so much respect for the top ten masters, and when they reach their realm, they have almost gotten rid of the shackles of human beings and become immortal-like existences.
The long-term vigilance made Emperor Yan observe the environment around him as soon as he woke up, surrounded by tall trees, and from the bushes from time to time there were one or two insect chirps, which sounded quiet and serene. It's just that the sultry and humid air around me is blowing in the face, which makes people feel a little uncomfortable.
Ji Yunkong and the Fire Qilin were beside her, and in addition, there was also a little eagle leaning against the tree with a somewhat aggrieved expression. Seeing the little eagles, Emperor Yan finally knew how they survived. It's just that the eaglet is also a child, and usually flies with up to two people, but now there is a high-headed fire unicorn, which obviously consumes a lot of its energy, and the bones on its wings seem to be broken.
"Senior sister, are you awake?" Ji Yunkong didn't wait for Emperor Yan to ask, and then replied, "Here, it seems to be the land of the southern Miao Territory, it seems that the location of the curse valley is above this sky. β
"Miao Jiang?" Emperor Yan's heart moved, the Miao people, who were famous all over the world for their Gu arts, seemed to have come to the wrong place for the two of them. If you want to say that the Miao people are more famous than Gu arts, that is, their weird personality, no one knows, when they interact with the Miao people, saying the wrong sentence will cause their dissatisfaction, and thus give you Gu. Even, until he died, he didn't know what was going on.
"Senior sister, don't worry, if I'm not mistaken, this should be the outskirts of Miaojiang, you just need to pass through this wood, and you can go out." Ji Yun Kongdao.
However, Emperor Yan quickly sensed the loophole in Ji Yunkong's words: "Me? Myself? What about you? What do you want? β
Ji Yunkong smiled bitterly: "Senior sister, a woman who is too smart is not likeable. There was already a link in my plan, but I didn't expect to get here by mistake now, so it just happened that I wanted to go to Miaojiang and his party. β
Emperor Yan frowned, suddenly stood up and said, "I'll go with you." β
"Nope." Ji Yunkong flatly refused.
Emperor Yan didn't ask why, but she knew better than anyone else that the curse valley was a cage and a paradise. Now that the two of them have come out of there, it is time for the original laughter and scolding to end. Don't forget, Ji Yunkong betrayed the master, that is to say, no matter when and where, the first goal of Emperor Yan when he met Ji Yunkong was to kill him. It is absolutely impossible for the two of them to support each other like in the curse valley.
The reason why Emperor Yan wanted to follow Ji Yunkong was not because he was worried about his safety, but because he didn't want to end like this. In other words, I don't want to wake up from my dreams like this. And Ji Yunkong's answer was undoubtedly cruel to her.
A trace of blood appeared on Emperor Yan's clenched lips, and he said, "Okay, take care, the first time, Senior Sister and I can't beat you; The second time, the senior brother and younger brother had to deal with Gongsun Huang, and there was the old man of the Heavenly Demon present, so it was difficult to do it; The third time, the senior brother and sister had to join forces with you in order to fight against the Demon Sect. In this case, there will be no next time, and your luck will not be so good all the time. β
"Is this a declaration of war?" Ji Yunkong smiled, "Senior sister, if that's the case, I accept it." However, next time, you don't want to have just one or two people, you can't win me without more than three of them working together. β
"Humph!" When Emperor Yan heard this, he snorted coldly and left in a huff.
"Xiaoying, you escort your senior sister for a ride, you don't have to follow me, take care of your injuries. Thanks to you this time. Ji Yunkong stroked the eaglet's feathers and said.
The little eagle enjoyed Ji Yunkong's intimate action very much, and after a few low chirps, he spread his wings and flew up, although the speed was not fast due to injury, but he could still fly smoothly.
"Roar." The Fire Qilin let out a low roar.
"What? Doesn't it say that unicorns can change body size? Are you still a toddler and don't have this ability? Can't change the size of your bones? It's really useless, can you make it a little smaller? It's awkward to talk to you with your head held high. Hey, what to do? Don't bite me! β
Luoyang, after a thrilling assassination during the day, the tranquility at night is extraordinary.
In the City Lord's Mansion, the third lady's face was relatively pale, of course, even paler than her was Ying Yuewen's face on the side, which was almost languishing, and her face was like paper. In the battle in the morning, he forcibly urged his blood, which was equivalent to evaporating some of the blood in his body, no wonder he was so low.
"Miss, you shouldn't have made a move today, not only aroused suspicion, but also injured a little, which is really unwise." Ying Yuewen even seemed a little laborious to speak.
"You don't understand, since you can plan today's assassination, you must be someone who is extremely familiar with our itinerary. In this way, there are only you, me, Chen Shuzhi, Li Yixuan, the eldest brother, and the second brother. Of course, those soldiers also knew about this hunt in advance, but they were all henchmen of the second brother, not to mention that it was difficult to get involved in the spies, and just because these low-level soldiers could not know exactly about our itinerary, it was impossible for them to tell the truth. The third lady's eyes were full of murderous aura until now.
"This assassination is very likely to be Chen Shuzhi's layout, and even if it is not, it will not affect my plan to kill him with this momentum." The third lady said, "The eldest brother and the second brother are too naΓ―ve, they are not good friends with the people of the rivers and lakes, and they are not controlled by the imperial court, how can it be possible in this troubled world now?" Although the Luoyang royal family is no different from the land cut, it is impossible to survive in this world without relying on any force. β
The third lady then analyzed: "The strategy formulated by my father back then was very witty, on the one hand, he was nominally controlled by the imperial court, and on the other hand, he was friendly with the people of the rivers and lakes, so that Luoyang could be prosperous in the troubled times. If Uncle Chen dies in this assassination, the imperial court will inevitably hold Luoyang responsible, and at that time, the two elder brothers will have to rely on the power of the rivers and lakes. It is better to rely on one than not on both sides. β
In another room, Helian Jun was also reminiscing about what he had seen and heard that day. "Uncle Chen, this guy, the commotion is too big, right? In this way, it is also bad for himself. Didn't he do it? No way, no one but him would do such a thing. Well, I shouldn't be the biggest headache right now. I want to see how the two young city lords deal with it, and the third young lady, hehe, these three people are the most headache now, right? β
Helian Jun adjusted his sitting posture to make himself more comfortable: "However, since Chen Shuzhi has already made a move, I have to cooperate." As if he was asleep, he muttered indistinctly
