Chapter VIII The Situation is Critical

The winter sun sets early, and most of the North Sea Kingdom is covered in snow. Even though it is in Beihai City, where the four seasons are like spring, it is also snowing heavily, covering all the colors of the earth. The thick snow caught the people of Beihai off guard, and in this world without spring, the wind howled and the chill was cold.

It's late at night, and a certain palace is still brightly lit. And in the palace, King Haitian sat at a round table, constantly drinking and pouring tea, and from time to time his eyes drifted out of the window, as if he was looking forward to something.

Just when the King of Beihai was about to lose his breath, the wind outside the window suddenly stopped, and a burst of sword qi rushed to his face, full of high spirit and determination.

"Uncle Shi, nephew!" The door of the palace slowly opened, and a young man in white with a majestic spirit and starry eyebrows stood there, like a sharp sword.

The arrival of the young man in white made Haitian overjoyed. His Majesty hurriedly ran over and pulled the boy through the door. "Shijie, you're finally here. It's all your own family, so you don't have to be so polite, sit down quickly. As he spoke, Haitian poured a cup of warm hot tea for the young swordsman in front of him.

"Thank you, uncle. The young swordsman respectfully took the teacup.

After the two sat opposite each other, Haitian's smile disappeared immediately, but said with a sad face: "Shijie, there is no need to be polite between you and my uncle and nephew." I invite you to come here today because we have something important to discuss. Now, Tianyun is about to be in chaos, and the army of tigers and wolves that inherit the sky is already sharpening knives and arrows. War is coming, and the North Sea is about to turn into a sea of corpses and blood. It's just a pity for those loyal soldiers, who are about to become lonely ghosts!" After speaking, Haitian sighed.

Hearing Haitian's sigh, the young man in white showed a very solemn look on his face. Just a few months ago, his master quietly passed the position of head to him and went down the mountain overnight. And today, he received news that Master was unconscious for some reason. Therefore, after receiving Haitian's edict, the young man in white immediately rushed from the snowy mountain.

"Uncle Shi, so the Chengtian Empire is determined to tear up the Tianyun Peace Treaty and start a war against my Beihai?" asked the young man in white.

At the mention of Chengtian, Haitian's eyes suddenly showed a hideous gaze, and he said loudly: "Shijie, just a few days ago, I sent General Xu Muyun, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, to secretly go to the Chengtian Empire to inquire about the news. As a result, it was learned that the Emperor Chengtian had died, and the first person in his military, King Hailing, officially ascended the throne as emperor. Moreover, King Hailing openly claimed that the Emperor Chengtian was killed by their military advisor Mu Ershan and our Beihai Kingdom, and on this ground, he began to mobilize for war. ”

"It's just a cover-up and stealing the bell. Uncle Shijie, Shijie thought that all this must be the masterpiece of King Hailing. Kill his brother and plot to usurp the throne. The day before yesterday, there was a change in the starry sky in the northwest, and the Chengtian Emperor Star instantly dimmed. And now, the Chengtian Emperor Star is surrounded by a purple qi, which is very strange. The young man in white said, "What the nephew said is very true. Now it can be concluded that King Hailing plotted to usurp the throne and blame Beihai for this, wanting to seize the world. If this person is not removed, the Tianyun Continent will definitely be catastrophic. Haitian said fiercely, slamming his right hand on the table.

Hearing this, the young man in white stood up and clasped his fists with both hands: "Shijie is not talented, I am willing to assassinate King Hailing alone, for Beihai, for Tianyun, and get rid of this big trouble." ”

Haitian looked at the young swordsman in front of him with relief, but shook his head and said: "My nephew, I admire your courage and determination, but I will never let you take this risk." Although, you became famous at a young age, flying swords in the snowy mountains, dominating the world, unparalleled in the world. But that King Hailing is also a fierce general in the world, and everyone in the world calls him the first god of war on the mainland. Moreover, he can make the Emperor Star mutate, which shows that there must be strange people to help King Hailing. In terms of this ability alone, it is no less than your master!"

Hearing this, the young man in white had no choice but to sit down helplessly, clenching his fists unwillingly.

After a short silence, the two of them picked up the teacup in front of them at the same time, lowered their heads, and saw three leaves floating in the cup, which were horns of each other. It smells faintly fragrant, but the taste is bitter. Song Shijie drank cup after cup, quite upset.

After a long time, Haitian pointed to the three leaves in his cup and said meaningfully: "Ding has three legs, so it is stable." Once we lose in this battle, the balance of power in the world will inevitably be broken. If the Chengtian Empire wants to unify the Tianyun Continent, it must first attack our Beihai and eliminate future troubles. However, our national strength is far inferior to Chengtian, and in the face of tens of millions of tigers and wolves, our army will have no chance of victory. ”

"Why does Uncle Shi grow the ambition of others and destroy his own prestige! My wooden door is the first major sect in the world, and all the disciples under the sect are strong in martial arts, wise and brave, especially in the mechanical arts, and they are unique in the world. The nephew thought that if it was just a simple defensive war, Chengtian would not get anything cheap. What's more, we have no reason to retreat. When the time comes, you will be able to bear to see our compatriots become slaves and be humiliated forever. and Cher, whose reputation is known to everyone in the world. If we wait, won't we let Xue'er fall into a state of no return?" mentioned Snow White, Song Shijie's emotions were extremely excited.

Haitian was silent, but still spoke: "Shijie, I know your thoughts. You and Xue'er have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, growing up together, and they are brothers and sisters. Cher, this kid has already made a secret promise to you. You young hero, hand over Xue'er to you, I'm a hundred relieved. If you can see your happy life, even if you die, you will have no regrets. It's just that if one day, the Beihai Kingdom falls, please promise me that no matter how the sky falls, you must protect Xue'er, stay by her side, and don't hand her over to the Chengtian Empire. Because, I don't want my baby daughter to be hurt in the slightest. At the mention of his daughter, the brave king shed tears.

Song Shijie straightened up and said solemnly: "Uncle don't worry, my nephew swears in the name of the Snow Mountain Flying Sword that he will never leave the princess for half a step in this life and this life." ”

"That's good, that's good. Shijie, when the situation is a little more stable, I will personally hold a big wedding for you and Xue'er. Haitian turned sad to joy, looked at the white-clothed swordsman in front of him, and said sincerely.

Song Shijie, who is known as the "Snow Mountain Flying Sword" by the world, blushed embarrassedly when he heard this, and completely lost the legendary swordsman style who was as cold as the wind and did not move like a mountain.
