Late at night, Tu Luo Zong.

The large hall of the hall is slightly empty, and the candles are bright, reflecting the entire hall in a warm halo of slightly yellowish light.

At the end of the main hall, in addition to a chair, there is a long case, and on the surface of the long case, an illusory map is clearly disfigured, which is the fine terrain on the periphery of this wasteland.

At this time, Xu Dong was sitting behind the long case, staring at several areas on the map, his brows furrowed, and his eyes flashed.

Wearing a blood-colored Luo skirt, Xueqian walked out of the back hall of the main hall slowly, served the tea in her hand, and walked behind Xudong in lotus steps, sent warm tea to Xudong, and said softly:

"Brother Dong, don't worry too much, drink a cup of tea first to relieve your fatigue, you will definitely be able to think of a way. ”

Xudong was too engrossed in thinking about the problem before, and Xueqian didn't even notice it when he got close, until a gust of fragrant wind hit his face, and Xueqian brought the tea to his side, and finally noticed.

Hearing Xueqian's words, Xudong couldn't help but smile bitterly, and while taking the tea in Xueqian's hand, he shook his head slightly, and said helplessly:

"It's difficult, we just noticed that the Fuling Sect was secretly supplying resources to the nearby sects, but we didn't know which sects were secretly cooperating with the Fuling Sect, and there was no way to deal with it. ”

"Do you want to secretly send someone to investigate the various sects? maybe you can find clues?"

Hearing this, Xu Dong shook his head and said, "It's not appropriate, we already have eyeliner in the major sects, and our status is not low, but we didn't find out at all."

This shows that their movements are very secretive, and even if we send people, it will be difficult to find anything, and we will only startle the snake. Besides, that's not what worries me the most. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Dong's words suddenly paused, his eyes were deep, he looked at Xue Qian deeply, and said in a low voice:

"What I'm most worried about is that the Fuling Sect has separated disciples within our sect, and there are even masters who have mixed into the Tuluo Sect, once they develop to a certain point, and another person who takes the lead appears, then it will be the biggest threat to us. ”

Although Xu Dong's words were low, they fell in Xueqian's ears, but they exploded like thunder, and suddenly a pair of wonderful eyes widened, and he couldn't help but gasp.

This was something she had never considered, and when she heard Xu Dong say it, she really realized how difficult Tu Luozong's current situation was.

For more than half a year, the Fuling Sect has been constantly taking action against the Xuanhuo Sect, and has even begun to blatantly prepare for war, and has continuously wooed the territory of the Tuluo Sect, and the other two sects of no small scale have never stopped wooing the Tuluo Sect.

In the face of the active preparations of the Fuling Sect, the performance of the Xuanhuo Sect was extremely strange, as if it was turning a blind eye and allowing the Fuling Sect to take various actions.

And it was this abnormal performance of the Xuanhuo Sect that made Xu Dong more and more convinced that this was not just a battle between these two sects, but hidden under this appearance, it must be a secret game between the two overlords of the Holy Fire Palace and the Xuanshui Sect.

Therefore, the Tuluo Sect had a resolute attitude and always refused to agree to the solicitation of the Fuling Sect.

Under the circumstance that the Slaughter Sect was always unwilling to join forces, the Fu Ling Sect finally turned around and began to secretly support other sects on the periphery of this wasteland, intending to replace Slaughter, so as to obtain a large amount of resources accumulated by the Slaughter Sect to support its own attack on the Xuanhuo Sect.

However, the Fuling Sect also understood that even if they were able to defeat the Tuluo Sect, what they would get would only be a crippled sect, and their overall strength would shrink significantly.

Therefore, they are supporting the sect here, in fact, it is more to exert pressure on the Tuluo Sect, as long as the Tuluo Sect nods, these pressures will naturally cease to exist.

It's just that in that case, what the Tuluo Sect will be involved in is the tragic struggle between the two overlords, and at that time, seeking survival in the gap between the two overlords, their fate is not something they can control.

Therefore, even if he is facing great pressure, Xu Dong will definitely not choose to compromise, but this also means that he will face the situation of being forcibly annexed by the Fuling Sect.

With the Xuanshui Sect supporting the Fuling Sect in the rear, how much background there is, Xu Dong can't see it clearly at all, but it definitely has the strength to level the current Tuluo Sect.

The current Tuluo Sect is like an evil boat, there is a possibility of destruction at any time, in such a precipitous environment, how can Xu Dong not worry, almost all his body and mind are put on dealing with the predicament.

At the very least, it would take until the Heavenly Wolf returned from the Western Frontier to finally decide where to move the sect and truly avoid the turbulent whirlpool that was too terrifying for the current Tuluo Sect.

And after telling Xue Qian the biggest worry in his heart now, looking at Xue Qian's nervous appearance, Xu Dong's heart suddenly moved, and he laughed softly:

"It's okay, these things, don't worry about it for the time being, at least, it will be a surprise, before the real declaration of war Xuanhuo, the Fuling Sect will not make a move against us, even if it does, I will not let anyone slaughter the Luo Sect, don't worry, there will be no problem with me." ”

As he spoke, Xu Dong nodded heavily, holding the still warm tea in his hand in silence, and moved his gaze back to the map on the table, his eyes flashing.

Only he knows how dangerous Tu Luozong is now, but how much pressure he has, he wants to bear it alone, and he doesn't want Xueqian to worry about it.

Half a month ago, Xueqian clearly showed his love for him, if there was no slightest wave in his heart, it was impossible.

In Xudong's heart, he doesn't know what his attitude towards Xueqian is, but one thing is certain, that is, he is willing to protect Xueqian for the rest of his life, and he will not hesitate to pay for his life.

However, he preferred to think that it was only because of his commitment to Prince Denton, rather than because of the love between men and women.

Because, deep in his heart, he is a dead heart after all, as early as when he suffered great changes in his childhood, his heart was already frozen, and he was unwilling or even afraid to touch any feelings.

What's more, in his impression, Xueqian is a strong, cheerful, and excellent girl, and her partner should not be a poor person like herself.

And in the current situation, his whole mind is focused on dealing with the predicament, and he has no energy to think about those things, or rather, he is running away from thinking about it.

But even so, feeling the warmth on the jade cup in his hand, he still couldn't help but feel a warm heart.

At this time, Xueqian stood quietly behind Xudong, with a pair of wonderful eyes flowing in waves, quietly staring at the illusion map on the table, sweeping Xudong's contemplative back from time to time, soft and gentle.

Half a month ago, she confessed to Xudong, but was teleported away by Xudong in a panic, and her mood at that time can be imagined, she closed the door for three consecutive days, unwilling to face Xudong.

It's just that Xueqian, who was born in the blood clan, is different from ordinary women after all, with a little less shyness and subtlety of an ordinary girl, but a little more enthusiasm and firmness.

In three days, she finally calmed down the chaotic mood in her heart, and even abandoned the inferiority complex in her heart, and re-strengthened her confidence: even if she is a blood clan, as long as she pays sincerely, she will definitely be able to impress Xudong!

Therefore, three days later, Xueqian stepped out of the door again, and came here every night to accompany Xudong.

At first, Xudong didn't agree, and kept urging Xueqian to go back to rest.

But as a blood clan, Xueqian is more energetic at night, and there is no need to rest at all, so Xudong has nothing to say. Coupled with Xueqian's insistence, Xudong couldn't resist Xueqian after all, so he had to agree to Xueqian's stay here, and after a few days, he finally got used to it.

And Xueqian accompanied Xudong every night, and finally understood how much pressure Xudong was under during this time. is even more because of his willfulness, and caused a lot of trouble to Xudong, who was already entangled in heavy work, so he felt deeply remorseful.

Since then, she has never said a word to Xudong about her emotions, burying that love in her heart, just silently accompanying Xudong every night.

Since you can't share his pressure, let's bear it silently with him.

After half a month, Xueqian's mood was also quietly changing. The figure of Xudong in his heart is becoming clearer and clearer, but he is no longer as strong as before, and he has a strong desire for Xudong to accept himself.

As long as she can be by Xudong's side every day, look at his solid back, and help him share a little bit of that huge pressure, Xueqian feels very satisfied.

In the open hall, there are two rows of delicate candlesticks, the red candles are shining, the candle flame is beating, reflecting a faint yellow light, illuminating the entire hall.

Xu Dong sat at the end of the main hall, while Xue Qian was soft-eyed and stood quietly.

The beating candlelight, behind the two people, casts a soft shadow, two different shadows, harmoniously blending and blending together on the vertical screen of the carved inscriptions behind them.

......

In the Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Realm, in a valley, a warm bonfire was beating at this time.

The Celestial Wolf and the Martial War Spirit sat opposite each other across the bonfire, both holding a branch in their hands, wearing the meat cut from the giant octopus, and kept roasting on the fire.

Martial War Spirit, a domineering name with a sharp and sharp spirit, when Sky Wolf first came to Western Xinjiang, he saw the tragic battle traces he left behind in the top 100 alone.

This wild Western Xinjiang hero, since then, has left a deep impression in his heart.

It's just that, no matter what, he couldn't have imagined that he and the martial arts spirit would meet in this way in this chaotic space.

However, no matter who the other party is, they finally saw a human here, and the two of them couldn't suppress the excitement in their hearts, and they directly lit a bonfire here and talked freely.

"I see, you are not from the Western Frontier, you were chased and killed by the two old horsemen in the Riding Temple, so you broke in by mistake. If you don't go to so many good places, it's really unlucky to enter this Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Realm. ”

Listening to the Heavenly Wolf's account of how he came here, Wu Zhan Soul's face suddenly showed a strange color, and his eyes were full of sympathy when he looked at the Heavenly Wolf.

Hearing this, the Heavenly Wolf also looked moved, and asked rhetorically: "It turns out that this place is called the Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Realm, so what is the place here? What is the secret? Why are there so many summoned beasts?"
