Chapter 18: The Strange Dagger

There were only a few stars hanging in the dark night, which seemed a little lonely. The people of the village had already fallen asleep, and no one could have predicted what would happen next.

A cluster of flames streaked across the sky and fell straight down towards the village, screams and cries that broke the silence of the night in an instant.

Icarus, armed with a longbow, looked at the sea of fire at his feet, without a trace of expression on his face, and allowed the people under his feet to be burned to death.

Half-sounded, Icarus looked towards the northern sky, which was the direction where Ling Tian was. "I'm really not kind at all, how are you doing now, are you still alive?" Ling Tian. Icarus said dumbfounded.

Icarus can indifferently watch the people under his feet being burned to death, or even kill them directly, whether it is out of his own intention or not, Icarus can still bear it. However, Icarus couldn't watch Ling Tian die with a cold eye, looking at the young man who was the first to say that he was kind, looking at the stubborn young man, watching the very ordinary young man die.

Icarus withdrew his gaze, sighed, and with a slight flapping of his wings, he landed on the ground and began a new round of slaughter......

......

"No, I don't agree. Han Ziyuan refused at Han Yilou. "No, this is the tenth time, and you'll have to pick one of these people. Han Yilou's attitude was very resolute. "But..."Han Ziyuan wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Han Yilou, "No need to say more, this matter has already been decided, either you will never go out, or you will obediently listen to me, hum." After speaking, ignoring his daughter's pleas, Han Yi left without looking back.

Looking at the information in front of him that was one foot tall or the sons of major families or important ministers in the court, Han Ziyuan wanted to cry a little. No matter how smart she is, no matter how strong she is, Han Ziyuan is only a woman after all, and she has no way to go against her father's will in the face of this kind of thing.

Since Han Ziyuan stopped Han Yilou that day, Han Yilou did keep his promise and forcibly suppressed this matter after General Li came back, and Han Ziyuan was also under house arrest in the deep palace from that day.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, if it really doesn't work, we'll..." Remnant Feng respectfully stood behind Han Ziyuan and reminded Han Ziyuan. Han Ziyuan frowned, "It's not time yet, I'll try to delay it for a while." "But Her Royal Highness the Princess, this time the emperor is really angry, if you continue like this, we won't be able to escape." Remnant Wind said anxiously.

Looking at the person in front of him, who could be said to be his most trusted, Han Ziyuan reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said bitterly, "But, he is my father after all." Seeing Han Ziyuan's appearance, Remnant Feng opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end he only said one sentence: "Your Royal Highness Princess, even if you are an enemy of the whole world, I, Remnant Wind, will always guard you! After speaking, the remnant wind turned around and gradually disappeared in front of Han Ziyuan's eyes.

Looking at the back of the remnant wind, Han Ziyuan nodded thoughtfully, "If there really is that day, I hope you can leave me." Shaking his head, Han Ziyuan looked at the pile of materials again and began to plan how to avoid this time.

......

Nedno Continental Forest.

Ling Tian sat on a tree branch and looked up at the night sky. "Alas, Qiaoqiao, Ziyuan, are you all right?" Ling Tian said with a sigh. It was impossible for anyone to answer him here, Ling Tian shifted his position so that he could lean against the trunk of the tree, slowly closed his eyes, and fell asleep......

Nothing was said all night.

The next day, the sun shone on Ling Tian's handsome face, and Ling Tian's hand moved, slowly opening his eyes. Shaking his head, Ling Tian looked around, fortunately Ling Tian's luck was not good enough to be caught by something again.

Stretching, Ling Tian jumped down from the tree.

Finding that there was nothing to eat, Ling Tian jumped onto a stone not far away, stood on tiptoe and used his hands to pick leaves to fill his stomach. Fortunately, Ling Tian was an elf clan, and he was able to rely on this way to barely satisfy his hunger.

After drinking some dew from the leaves on the side of the road, and after simply 'eating', Ling Tian got up and left in one direction.

Three days had passed since the day he fell into the water, and Ling Tian was lucky, although he was unconscious, he happened to hate drinking water from a river instead of a lake. This made Ling Tian not sink into the water even after he fell unconscious, but fell directly from the waterfall with the current, just because he was washed by the water onto the riverbed, so he was not drowned.

The injuries on his body were just some abrasions, and most of them had healed under the strong recovery of the elf clan, and Ling Tian couldn't help but feel a little helpless and a little relieved at the same time. This can be regarded as giving Ling Tian a little hope to live.

Compared to when he first arrived in Nedno, the direction Ling Tian was taking at this time actually had a goal. Ling Tian didn't know what was going to happen in this direction, what was waiting for him, he only knew that something was calling him in this direction. Yes, there was something calling to him, and Ling Tian could clearly feel that the voice in that direction was not malicious in any way. On the contrary, that voice actually gave Ling Tian a sense of security. Just following this ethereal feeling in his heart, Ling Tian walked towards this unknown voice.

I don't know how long it took, Ling Tian only felt a chill coming, Ling Tian snorted, stopped, and carefully observed the surroundings.

It was still a tree from the Nedno Continent, and there was no difference on the surface, but the careful Ling Tian found that the color of the tree was a little different. Compared to the previous green, the tree is now a little darker, giving it an eerie feeling.

Ling Tian, who was secretly puzzled, frowned, he could clearly hear that the call in his mind was getting stronger and stronger. And this call was so strong that it began to affect Ling Tian's own will, but Ling Tian was unaware of it, and still walked in that direction. He wanted to know what that thing was, what it was that kept calling him.

The surrounding trees gradually disappeared, and the thorns replaced Ling Tian's vision, and the call was not far ahead, Ling Tian hesitated for a moment but decided to enter.

The thorns cut through Ling Tian's skin, but Ling Tian didn't seem to notice all this, if someone was here, they could clearly see that the reason in Ling Tian's eyes was disappearing little by little, but it was replaced by a touch of madness. This madness made Ling Tian start running desperately, Ling Tian's breathing began to become heavy, and his eyes revealed a sickly excitement, "It's coming, it's almost there." Ling Tian muttered.

Finally, Ling Tian rushed out of the thorn bush, a glimmer of light shone on Ling Tian's pale face, and Ling Tian stopped.

In the middle of the barren land was a stone with a dagger stuck in it, and the black-red horses around the dagger were imprinted in Ling Tian's eyes like flames.

Ling Tian's gaze could no longer move, unconsciously, Ling Tian took a step forward, the dagger in his eyes was slowly expanding, just when Ling Tian was less than three meters away from the dagger, Ling Tian bit the tip of his tongue violently, and his body retreated, don't turn his head and stop looking at the strange dagger. His chest rose and fell violently, Ling Tian looked around, and was shocked to find that all his surroundings were covered with white bones!

The dagger was black throughout, and there were two words engraved on it, but Ling Tian didn't recognize it. Ling Tian swallowed and spat, stepping backwards step by step.

Until Ling Tian retreated to the thorn bush, there was nothing unusual about the dagger. The call in his heart had long since disappeared, and Ling Tian breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, a mutation suddenly occurred. I saw that the dagger flickered, and the surrounding horses were actually woven into a hand as if they had come to life and grabbed towards Ling Tian. Caught off guard, Ling Tian was caught.

Ling Tian, who was caught, twisted his body and tried to break free, but it was all in vain. Finally, Ling Tian's right hand broke free and directly grabbed a cluster of thorns. Intense pain came, and Ling Tian snorted, feeling his grip on his hand even harder. Blood dripped down his right hand and fell to the ground, but Ling Tian still didn't give up!

"Ah!!" Ling Tian roared angrily, his right hand began to glow, and soon turned into the shape of a dagger, this dagger was none other than Wei Shan! Ling Tian, who had never succeeded in this critical moment, actually succeeded in this situation! While stretching out his hand back, he slashed at Pi Lian, and with a 'tear' sound, Ling Tian actually broke free!

With a roll, Ling Tian distanced himself from Pi Lian, his eyes looked at the dagger vigilantly, and the white light on his hand slowly dissipated, revealing Ling Tian's already bloody right hand again.

"What the hell are you?" Ling Tian said coldly, his body retreating a few points again.
