Chapter 591: A Moment of Death
The bright moon is the window, and the night is picturesque.
The silver glow of water poured over the earth, and the garden was full of flowers and trees, as if it was draped in a dreamlike light veil, hazy and shadowy.
In the backyard garden, two figures stood side by side at the moment, looking up at the bright moon in the sky.
The man is dressed in a dark blue robe, and the placket and cuffs are embroidered with extremely fine silver thread with a picture of a crane soaring in the sea of clouds, with a hollow gold belt, and then decorated with a whole body of turquoise bamboo pendant, which looks chic and outstanding.
The woman's fair skin is as delicate as clear water hibiscus, her bright eyes are as clear as a stream, and her red lips match the skin, showing a beautiful woman with a smile and a beautiful smile like a landscape painting.
But the clothes on her body were incompatible with the man, but coarse linen, which was worn by the inferior.
At this moment, her eyes were fixed, and the beautiful half-moon was reflected in her pupils, and her face became contemplative, as if thinking about the moon.
These two people are Yun Xuan and Qing Lian.
Just before, Qing Lian told Yun Xuan that there was something important to say, and the expression on his face was rare serious and hesitant.
Obviously, this matter is important after all, so after coaxing Liu Hanyan to sleep, he quietly came here.
Seeing her standing here, looking up at the moon, even if she was wearing sackcloth, she couldn't stop her beauty, like a princess praying in the moonlight.
Half-ringing, Qing Pity's eyes were rippling, and he looked down at the man beside him, his eyes were full of joy and a hint of sadness.
This is the man she loves most in her life, and in order to be able to be together, the two have suffered a lot, which can be described as nine deaths.
Now, however, an important decision was swirling in her mind, like a boulder crashing on the surface of a calm lake.
It only takes a moment for a huge splash of water to splash and make magnificent waves, and when the sound is over, countless water ripples in circles.
"What's so mysterious?"
Feeling someone watching, Yun Xuan lowered his head, and then looked at Qing Pity's facial features that were like God's masterpieces.
"I ...... I think"
When the words came to his lips, Qing Lian didn't know what to say?
Or maybe he wasn't ready to tell the cruel news, his eyes flashed, and then he lowered his head and looked lonely.
Seeing this strangeness, Yun Xuan reached out to hold her plain hand and said calmly, "Something happened."
Qing Lian didn't say anything, but rested her head on his shoulder, and then raised her gaze to look at the white moon.
Seeing this, Yun Xuan didn't speak, looked up at the moon, and then waited quietly.
He knew that she had something to say, or something about the two of them.
He hadn't seen such a look on her face for a long time.
The last time was when they were in Yunfu, the two drifted apart, and she was the same at that time.
The sky is dark, the stars are twinkling, and a crescent moon hangs obliquely in the night sky, and under the hazy illumination of the moon, it is difficult to see the whole picture of the mountains.
Only the night wind swept by, and the weeds on both sides of the road undulated and swayed with the wind.
And at this time, two figures appeared here, a little on tiptoe, and soon disappeared again.
Under the illumination of the moonlight, the faces of the two gradually became clear, and they were the two protectors of the Hundred Saints Sect who sent people to arrest the Moon Maiden.
The quality of the terrain is broken, and the texture of the rock is in the realm.
As the figures of the two disappeared, the impact of the speeding speed caused the leaves to fall, roll in the air, choose, and then lie quietly on the ground, become dead leaves, and finally turn into fertilizer to nourish the tree.
"Not right"
Suddenly, Poji's face sank, his eyebrows tightened, and his body paused.
"Great Protector, aren't we going to the One-Eyed Dragon?"
Yan Gan was puzzled, and suddenly there was a sudden brake, if it weren't for his profound skills, he would almost be out of the ocean.
"I always felt that something was wrong"
"Something is wrong"
"I know the one-eyed dragon very well, he is narrow-minded, greedy and selfish, with his strength, if he finds the traces of the moon girl, how can he emit signal smoke?"
Breaking Strike's eyes narrowed slightly, and a gleam flashed in his eyes. Capturing the Moon Maiden is a matter of the sect leader's orders, and whoever brings her back to the sect will definitely be rewarded by the sect leader.
How could such a good thing be shared by a one-eyed dragon?
Hearing this, Yan Gan also pondered, and when he saw the signal smoke, he didn't think too much about it, but immediately rushed in this direction.
Now that it's said like this, it's really a little suspicious, if it's him, if he finds the trace of the moon girl, he won't send a signal and let people get a piece of the pie.
At present, although the Hundred Saints Sect has three Dharma protectors on the surface, there is only one in the realm, which is much more shabby compared to other sects.
If you catch the Moon Maiden and bring her back, you may even get a chance to improve your strength.
A casual word of advice from a Heavenly Realm master is an incomparably precious insight for the Realm, better than a long period of penance.
The realm is different, the vision is different, and the level of things seen is different, just like the master and Tianjiao.
The poems that can make Tianjiao feel tricky are like children playing at home in the eyes of the master, and there is no difficulty.
"After all, the Holy Maiden is a master of the highest grade in the realm, even if she is injured, it is not something that the one-eyed dragon can deal with."
After a while, Iwagan expressed his opinion.
"It's possible, but I always think there's something else"
Poji's face sank, and his sharp eyes pondered, in his opinion, if it was just this reason.
Then the time for the one-eyed dragon to launch the signal smoke should have been advanced a long time ago, and the two of them arrived in the national capital more than half a day earlier than him.
This shows that the Moon Maiden did not follow the route of the two of them, and with the one-eyed dragon's footsteps, it is very easy to catch up with the injured Moon Maiden.
Even if you have the idea of monopolizing the credit, after some temptation, you can either defeat it, or the two of them are equal in strength and are in a stalemate.
At this time, the best option is to send signal smoke and let them rush there, and the strength of three people is enough to deal with the Moon Maiden.
However, now the distance from the signal smoke to the national capital is only half a day, and this time cannot be caught up, unless ......
Thinking of this, a cold glow bloomed in his eyes, sharp as lightning.
"Great Protector, why don't we rush over and take a look first, maybe the one-eyed dragon knows that he is not the opponent of the Holy Maiden, and deliberately releases a signal."
In Iwagan's opinion, this matter is actually very simple, that is, the one-eyed dragon wanted to take the credit alone at first.
As a result, he found that he was not the opponent of the Moon Girl, and after a fight, he was at a stalemate, and he was punished by the sect leader for missing his hand.
It's better to give credit so that at least you can drink a mouthful of soup.
"You continue to walk towards the location of the signal smoke, I will return to the national capital to see, and then you will rush over and join me"
After pondering for a while, Po Ji said, and the thoughts in his heart became stronger and stronger.
That is, the one-eyed dragon has been killed or suffered a heavy blow, an injured Realm Upper Grade, although its strength has slipped to the Realm Medium Grade.
That Realm Rank would not be his opponent, as a Realm Grade, he naturally knew the gap between the two.
In other words, if he wanted to, even the one-eyed dragon and Iwagan together would not be his opponent.
What's more, the Moon Girl is still the apprentice of a Heavenly Realm powerhouse, who knows if there is a means to hide.
"Alright, the Great Protector will be careful all the way, and I will go to you after I rush to the one-eyed dragon."
Yan Gan said respectfully, but there was some disdain in his heart.
I just came from the national capital, and I didn't find anything abnormal along the way, so what's the point of rushing back now?
Soon, the two figures continued to gallop through the night, one forward, the other backward.
On the other side, the Moon Maiden looked up at the gate of the national capital.
She was in pain, and she felt a sharp pain in her body with every step, like a volcano erupting in her body.
The internal organs, limbs, tendons, and veins trembled violently, as if they were burned in a flame.
If it weren't for a stick in her hand as a crutch, she wouldn't have been able to walk such a long way.
Looking at the place in front of him, the haggard eyes bloomed with bright light, and the corners of the pale mouth were slightly hooked.
"Ahem"
After a pause, she continued to walk forward with heavy steps, as long as she saw Yun Xuan, then everything was still in time.
From her position to the city gate, it was only half a stick of incense, and in the past, it was enough to take a few breaths.
But now, this short stretch of road is the longest she has walked.
One step out, although her thighs were like lead, it couldn't stop her resolute eyes in the slightest.
Step after step, and go on.
On the other side, Poji was also rushing back at a rapid speed, and a powerful aura was overwhelming like a flood.
Frightened, those small animals foraging for food at night hid back in their holes at the speed of life and death, and some even lay on the ground and pretended to be dead, trying to escape in this way.
His body kept jumping above the trees, his face was also gloomy as water, and thousands of cold glows appeared in his eyes.
A beautiful turn, the body landed firmly on the ground, and then ran with all his might.
Compared to the one-eyed dragon finding the trace of the Moon Maiden, he was more determined in his heart.
The signal smoke was supposed to have been found on him by killing the one-eyed dragon, and then using some means to launch it into the air as night fell.
At this time, she was already hiding in a hidden corner, and when it was time for her to help, she left it and headed towards the national capital.
After all, if you want to break through their defenses and enter the national capital, this is the only way.
"Damn it, damn it"
His complexion became distorted, his eyes froze, and for a moment, he seemed to have realized something, his eyes were full of essence, and a wisp of fierce murder lingered.
I didn't expect that the carelessness of the moment actually let go of the moon girl with his own hands, if this was known by the sect leader, he would definitely be tortured by incomparably painful times.
When he thought of the powerful momentum that was as vast as an abyss and as terrifying as a ghost, his eyes widened to reveal horror.
At this moment, he really hoped that all this was just his imagination, otherwise with this time back and forth, the Moon Girl would probably have entered the national capital.
After a cup of tea, his speed slowed down, and his flat brow became slightly wrinkled.
At last he stopped, the tip of his nose stirred, and a slight stream of blood appeared in his nostrils, mixed with the faint scent of a woman.
His eyes became deep and cold, a hint of fierceness appeared on his eyebrows, and his figure flashed and disappeared in an instant.
"Ahem"
The Moon Maiden stopped and looked up at the magnificent city gate a few meters away, which was the place that countless literati and artists longed for.
There are two words written on the top, strong and powerful, and the dragon flying and phoenix dance give people a simple and thick, strong and ancient feeling.
Countries!
I'm coming!
His eyes flashed, then he looked at the closed gate, a clear smile appeared on his pale face, and then limped forward.
However, at this moment, she sensed a powerful momentum behind her, like a heavy tide, towards her.
Turning to look over, there was an indiscernible black dot moving rapidly under the night, and this momentum also emanated from him.
At this moment, her heart was shocked, her lips were white, her hands trembled slightly, and her eyes were full of irrepressible fear.
She already knew who it was.
Then he hurriedly walked towards the city gate, as long as he entered it, the crisis would be automatically lifted, and he did not dare to be presumptuous in the national capital.
One came here at full speed, less than a dozen snaps of a finger; One stumbled, and one snapped his fingers and couldn't take a few steps.
A life-and-death battle for speed quietly began in the endless night......
