Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Crisis Is Approaching
Although Qin Qin rarely spoke, her departure also made Duguyan and Dongfang Yuzhu feel a lot lonely. [Ran^Text^Library] Although Le Wen was very calm on the surface, they also knew that he was not feeling good in his heart, after all, Qin Qin was the only one who could make him treat him unreservedly.
For Qin Qin, Dugu Yan and the others only know that she is from a mysterious and powerful family. If it weren't for the fear that Dugu Yi would be even more upset, he would definitely ask to the end.
Anyway, Qin Qin went back, but Dugu Yi and the three of them still had to continue on their way. The location where they fell out of the Seventh Abyss was exactly where they fell into the spatial passage.
Originally, as long as they waited, they would have been able to meet the ships heading north, but considering that the building ship carrying hundreds of people had disappeared out of thin air, and they happened to appear here, it would be a lot of trouble if they were met by the people who came to track down, so the three of them agreed to stop waiting for the ships and take the land route instead.
"I don't know how long it will take to get to Gejin City!"
Dugu Yan said to herself, at this time she was sitting in the shade of the tree resting and looking up at the leaves that were making noise in the wind, and the Dongfang Yuzhu next to her and Dugu Yi under another tree were cultivating cross-legged.
After returning from the seventh abyss, Dugu Yan found that although he was not as crazy as Dugu Yi, Dongfang Yuzhu could also be regarded as a cultivation maniac, and he only occasionally talked to Dugu Yan during the time he stopped to hurry, and he was almost the same as Dugu Yi in cultivation at other times. From this, it can be seen that to become a martial artist at this age, Dongfang Yuzhu does not just rely on bloodline and talent.
Dongfang Yuzhu slowly opened her eyes, but instead of looking at Duguyan, she turned her head to look at the forest.
"Someone's coming to our side, and it's not slow. ”
Hearing this, Dugu Yan immediately stood up and looked at Dongfang Yuzhu's line of sight vigilantly, and Dugu Yi also stopped cultivating, waiting for the arrival of the person Dongfang Yuzhu said.
"Whew!"
The sound of breaking the sky sounded, and a pale green figure appeared in front of Dugu Yi, a beautiful woman about the same age as Dugu Yan.
"Young Master Dugu. The woman didn't look at Dongfang Yuzhu and the others, and politely saluted Dugu Yi.
Seeing this, Dongfang Yuzhu and Dugu Yan also let down their guard, speculating about the relationship between this person and Dugu Yi.
"Caiyi. Dugu Yi slowly stood up. From the time they left Qiyuan City, they already knew that Caiyi and these Qin family disciples had been following behind, so they also guessed that they didn't see Qin Qin before they showed up to meet, so they didn't wait for Caiyi to speak, and said, "Qin Qin has already gone back to your Qin family." ”
"Going back?" Caiyi let out a look of surprise and muttered to herself, "Are we going to continue our mission?"
The small voice did not escape Dugu Yi's ears, he looked at Caiyi fixedly, and said expressionlessly: "You better give up, otherwise I will really kill you." ”
"I know I'm no match for you, but I can't do it, but I don't want to do anything with you today. ”
"I think so. Dugu Yi nodded slightly.
"I'm going to say goodbye today, I really hope we don't see each other again!"
"Wait a minute. Dugu Yi stopped Caiyi, who turned around and wanted to leave. "Do you have any horses to spare?"
"There is no superfluity. Cai Yiai smiled helplessly, and said, "However, if I can use this to make you owe a favor, I am happy to provide it for you." ”
"Thank you very much. "Dugu Yi doesn't care about any favors, if he walks, he may not be able to reach Gejin City in ten days and a half months.
Cai Yi didn't say anything more, raised his hand and waved it to the forest, and it didn't take long for the three of them to lead the three horses out of the woods and hand over the reins to Dugu Yi, and the three of them left with Cai Yi.
"They are also from the Qin family?" Dugu Yan asked, looking in the direction Cai Yi had left. It is not difficult to see their identities from the conversation between her and Dugu Yi, but there are too many things that cannot be understood.
"What is their mission, and why are you killing them?"
"The trial arranged by Qin Qin. Dugu Yi finished speaking very briefly, thought about it, and continued: "Although nothing happened today, if you are with me, you may also be involved in ......"
"You don't want to leave me, do you?" Dongfang Yuzhu interrupted Dugu Yi.
Dongfang Yuzhu's expression at this time, Dugu Yi is no stranger, he has seen it on the faces of Xue'er and Yiqian, it is the insistence that he does not want to be separated from him, it is precisely because of this that he has a sentence that he can't help but say: "To be honest, Qin Qin's departure relieved me, being with me will make you suffer a very cruel misfortune." ”
Dugu Yi's words made the second daughter's body tremble.
"Why did you say such a thing?" Duguyan stepped forward to ask.
"Maybe it's up to me to say that to you. Dongfang Yuzhu said bitterly, as long as the secret on her body is exposed, it will definitely attract countless people to chase and kill, and it is conceivable what will happen.
"Let's hurry. Dugu Yi shook his head and ended the topic.
"Cousin......" Dugu Yan still wanted to ask, but Dugu Yi had already stepped on the back of the horse and walked slowly.
Although Dongfang Yuzhu also wanted to know what secrets Dugu Yi still hid on her, she didn't plan to ask them, because she also knew that Dugu Yi would not tell her now.
After shaking his head slightly at Dugu Yi's back, Dongfang Yuzhu also jumped on the horse's back.
In this way, Duguyan also had to give up.
After having horses, Dugu Yi's journey was greatly accelerated, and their rest time was reduced a lot, and they had already arrived in Gejin City in only five days.
In the past five days, the three of them rarely talked to each other, mainly because Dugu Yi and Dongfang Yuzhu were almost always cultivating when they were not in a hurry. Dugu Yan didn't know why they forced themselves like this at first, but later realized that it was the encounter in the seventh abyss that made them all suffer a lot of stimulation, so they were so eager to become stronger.
Under the city gates.
Among the pedestrians who came in and out, Duguyan looked at Dugu Yi without saying anything.
is used to seeing Duguyan who has something to say, and Dongfang Yuzhu really can't stand the current twisted appearance.
"Sister Yan, if you have anything to say, just say it. ”
Hearing this, Dugu Yan took a deep breath and said reluctantly: "Cousin...... Qin Yi, Yuzhu, let's say goodbye here. ”
"Here?" Dongfang Yuzhu asked suspiciously.
"Hmm!" Dugu Yan nodded lightly and said weakly, "I can't let the clansmen know about Qin Yi's existence now." ”
From these words, I also knew that there were people from the Dugu clan waiting for Dugu Yan in the city, so Dongfang Yuzhu was no longer worried about her safety.
"This one is back to you. ”
Dugu Yi took out the sixth-order yuan core from the storage ring, but this simple action made the passers-by stop and stared at the white jade box in Dugu Yi's hand and his fingers.
During this period of time, there were no outsiders around, so Dugu Yi didn't need to hide the storage ring, and gradually became accustomed to picking and placing it casually; It's too late to hide anymore, so I can only leave as soon as possible.
"Let's go first. Dugu Yi and Dongfang Yuzhu glanced at each other, and the two walked forward quickly.
Dugu Yan didn't have to stay, and finally glanced at the backs of the two of them, and moved in another direction.
The three of them were not slow, and they quickly disappeared into the crowd, but the greedy gaze that stared at them did not disappear, and several of the pedestrians always followed closely behind Dugu Yi and the others.
"What happened in Liuyuan City won't be repeated here. Dongfang Yuzhu said with a little worry. You don't have to look back to spot those sneaky figures.
"Hopefully not. Dugu Yi shook his head helplessly. Starting from Duolong City, every time I pass through a city, I have to fight, and every time I get more people involved, if I continue like this, I don't know if I can arrive before the entrance exam of Suzaku Academy.
"Why don't we leave Gejin City today?"
Although Dugu Yi has a Vermilion Bird sleeping on his body, if it wakes up, it will have the strength of a Martial Emperor, but this does not make Dongfang Yuzhu feel at ease, because neither she nor Dugu Yi know how to wake up Suzaku.
"Even then, we need to procure something that we need on the road. ”
"Alas......" Dongfang Yuzhu let out a long sigh, and said with a solemn face: "I don't know if it's because of Sister Yan's attitude, or something else, I now have a very ominous premonition, from here on, we will face many killing opportunities." ”
Hearing this, Dugu Yi stopped and looked up at the sky, but the scorching sun couldn't feel its heat, and the thick dark clouds were condensing rapidly, and the air had become extremely heavy.
"It's going to be a rainstorm!"
