Chapter 572: Strong Enemies Join Forces
Next, Qiu Wuyi didn't delay too much time, and directly returned to the exit of the world with Fan Lingyu.
When he came to this world, the exit, or the entrance, was not very clear, perhaps it was because of the dragon demon's return genius that the exit appeared, and Qiu Wuyi saw a pillar of light rising into the sky from a long distance, clearly marking the direction in which he should go.
At least not when I first arrived, it certainly didn't have such a clear sign, and for the time being, it was not impossible to think of it as a small benefit after the victory.
The two of them held hands and stepped into the pillar of light, and immediately transferred to the outside world.
The world here has not disappeared because of the return of the dragon and demons, whether it is the barren land below or the continent floating in the sky, it basically maintains its original appearance, although the scale is not as big as the country of Shura, but it is a good place to retreat, Qiu Wuyi feels that if everything is solved in the future, it is also good to guard the place where the ancestors of the generations of ancestors sleep here with Fan Lingyu.
"You ......"
The masked man who was guarding outside suddenly stood up and took a few quick steps forward, as if he was frightened by something, but he immediately regained his composure, and this scene was somewhat embarrassing.
Although it was only a few short steps, Qiu Wuyi could still see it clearly, and he couldn't help but feel funny in his heart, and after the smile, he was a little moved.
Obviously, the masked man was nervous because of this, so he subconsciously got up and walked, but although he thought so, he didn't want to show it directly, so he stopped halfway.
This few steps have already reflected the concern in his heart at a glance, which is also the source of Qiu Wuyi's emotion, the intention of this mask man is still very unclear, and he bluntly said that the relationship between each other is mutual use, and he did not hide it, but because of this, Qiu Wuyi trusted him very much.
And in addition, there is an unconditional intimacy in his heart, as if he has known him for a long time, which makes Qiu Wuyi even more incomprehensible, but he doesn't want to doubt it.
"Senior, fortunately, not dishonored. ”
Although there was no order, Qiu Wuyi still pretended not to see his gaffe, and bowed respectfully, and Fan Lingyu also pretended to make the same move, and the two were like newlyweds visiting their elders.
"You ...... Do you know how long you've been in there?"
The masked man waved the sleeves of his robe, as if to cover up his gaffe, and turned his back. There was a slight anger in his tone.
"This ...... About two or three days...... Huh?"
Qiu Wuyi's face changed suddenly, and then he remembered that he had mentioned it before, and the speed of time passing in the world over there seemed to be different.
"It's been two months since you entered, and if I'm not mistaken, you should be brewing something big, and hopefully not because of it. ”
The masked man coughed slightly, and the feigned anger vanished.
"Two months? No, we must go back quickly!"
Completely forgetting about the matter of time, Qiu Wuyi also looked embarrassed, especially thinking of last night...... If the two of them directly accelerated and left the other world, they would be able to save at least half a month......
"Uncle Guard, what will happen here?"
I don't know if the power of the dragon demon can still affect this walled city, Fan Lingyu asked with concern.
"My life will not be damaged by this, and it will be the same here, but it may be a temporary sleep, if you need it, as long as the sea has figured it out, call me, and I will appear with this city, after all, this is the requiem of countless heroic spirits, so I will always guard their rest. ”
The guard took off his mask, revealing an almost mechanical face, and knelt down on one knee towards Fan Lingyu like a knight of allegiance.
Perhaps because the technology was not very advanced at that time, the guard's body was not completely transformed by the Spinning Thread, or it may be due to the continuation of the dragon demon's power after it disappeared.
"Thank you, Uncle Guard, although the power of the ancestor is no longer there, I have inherited her power, so I promised to help you protect this walled city, until then, please rest for a while. ”
After the change of mood, Fan Lingyu also changed from a simple girl who only knew how to practice and eat to a strong man with a responsible heart, although there was no sense of command, but it showed an invisible majesty.
"Yes, this place is about to sink, please leave as soon as possible. ”
The guard put on his helmet-like mask, bowed solemnly to the crowd, and stood beside the gate.
"Hurry up. ”
The masked man seemed to be more anxious than Qiu Wuyi, and immediately summoned the flame passage, Qiu Wuyi naturally didn't want to delay for a minute, and took Fan Lingyu's hand to board the flame carriage hidden in the space together.
The level of intimacy between the two was completely different from before, which neither of them even noticed, and thought that others might not know.
The masked man's gaze was so vicious, he could see at a glance the glue-like aura between Qiu Wuyi and Fan Lingyu, he naturally didn't ask anything, he just nodded as if relieved, and still didn't say a word.
"Senior, I may be about to start a formal conflict with the Heavenly Clothes Holy Gate next, although I don't know where you stand, but I still have a glimmer of hope and want to ask you to join our camp. ”
On top of the huge carriage, Qiu Wuyi made a formal request to the masked man, which could be regarded as a showdown.
"Although I belong to the Holy Gate of Heavenly Clothes, I only cooperate with them for my own purposes, and you are the same, the reason why I am willing to help you is also because you have interests for me, that's all, you can rest assured, I will not be able to make a move against you until you touch my interests, and this is also valid for the Holy Gate of Heavenly Clothes. ”
The masked man was facing Qiu Wuyi's face, looking at it for a long time, and the pair of hot and courageous eyes were always looking directly at his face, and after half a sound, the masked man slowly opened his mouth, did not agree, did not refuse, but only clarified his position.
"Uncle, what are your interests? tell us first, and we will get around it later!"
Fan Lingyu thought she was clever and suddenly interjected, and Qiu Wuyi's face was immediately covered with black lines.
"Hmph...... It's better to be a quick-talking guy than to hide everything in your belly, you kid is very good, it's a bit of a pity to be with this guy who is calculating...... I can't tell you what I want right now, because even I'm not sure of myself, and I promise you that in the event of a conflict between me and your paths in the future, I will make everything clear first. ”
The masked man seemed to remember something from the past, and his voice softened a lot, and even Qiu Wuyi saw a little bit of a father's temperament from his every move.
"Okay!
Fan Lingyu didn't realize that if someone else was in front of him, his words were likely to touch the other party's scales, and he still smiled brightly.
Qiu Wuyi suddenly felt that what the masked man had just said was not entirely unreasonable...... Wordlessly, he scratched his hair and turned his face to the side.
"You must remember that what you see with your eyes and what you hear with your ears may not be the truth of everything, and I know that the world is very unstable now, and those who want to save the world ...... Or you are not the only force, but who is really right? I'm afraid that just relying on righteous rhetoric or your own strength can't fully prove it, think about it more, sometimes what you insist on is not necessarily the truth, I have suffered a lot because of this, and I don't want anyone to follow the same path. ”
This was the last thing the masked man said to the two, and after that, no matter how much Qiu Wuyi tried to come up with a few words, it was useless, and in the end, Qiu Wuyi could only think about the advice the masked man gave him all the way and keep it firmly in his heart.
"Goodbye, uncle!"
When leaving the Gate of Flames, Fan Lingyu was still waving goodbye to the masked man in high spirits.
When the two of them disappeared, the masked man remained where he was, staring blankly at the space where there was nothing, a space that he owned, and no one could detect his presence unless an extremely powerful force intervened.
The star-shaped and varied mask was removed, revealing a cold, bloodless face, a haggard silhouette that did not belong to the battlefield at all, more like a scholar who had spent the night studying ancient books, and the deep gaze of compassion was still cast into the distance.
"Am I doing something wrong, or am I doing it right?"
Qiu Heming, who had taken off his mask, muttered to himself, there was still only confusion on his face, if Qiu Wuyi saw this face, the deepest memory of the ban would inevitably be revived immediately.
"You've tried your best, but you still haven't gotten any answers, have you?"
A woman's voice suddenly echoed in the space, able to invade the closed space, and the strength of the comer was already clear at a glance.
"It's really worth sacrificing all the way to the present?"
There was no surprise on Qiu Heming's face, there were less than three people on the entire planet who could invade.
"It's not worth it, but who can do more than me? Everyone can see the authority of those who control heaven and earth, but they can't see the sacrifice made because of it. ”
The woman seemed to be laughing, her voice still very young, like a young girl who was less than twenty years old, but there was a trace of uncompromising stubbornness hidden in the laughter.
"I see, if things are really the way you say, I'll make my own choice. ”
Qiu Heming let out a long sigh and put the mask on his face again, turning into a cold masked man.
outside the space.
The huge conference room was silent, and Qiu Wuyi's arrival gave a lot of confidence to the people present, but things were still not optimistic, including Qiu Wuyi himself.
"Duke Liao Taihao of the White Night...... When is the official time to join the Heavenly Clothes Holy Gate?"
Qiu Wuyi sat on the huge throne that only belonged to the lord, his heart was not here at all, and he had already flown to the distant battlefield
